Immortal of the Nine Realms-Chapter 1225: Surplus of Yin Lifespan

Floating Pagoda Realm, Jiangguang City.

Behind Fang Chen followed nine figures, each with a slightly different Yin demon aura. After a while, a layer of Yin energy enveloped them. As long as they didn't make a move, they were basically undetectable.

His nine split souls had entered the Underworld with their physical bodies, similar to his original self. Among them, the Yin Soldier Technique's avatar was like a dragon entering the sea, arriving with a vast and overwhelming force of karma constantly merging into him. Clearly, he was more suited to cultivate in the Underworld. This attribute was somewhat similar to the Nine Heavens Profound Yin Primordial Spirit.

After greeting Empress Ci, Fang Chen gave her the order. "Empress Ci, arrange a place for them to stay, and then come to the main hall for a meeting."

After that, he walked toward the main hall.

Empress Ci signaled Du Yunxu with her eyes and asked, "Who are those people?"

Du Yunxu shook his head. He didn't know who these nine were either, but he vaguely sensed that the lord had an unusual relationship with them. It seemed they were also part of the lord's trump cards, though their cultivation levels were not very high.

Seeing that Du Yunxu wasn't willing to speak, a warm smile spread on Empress Ci's face. She didn't dawdle and led the nine avatars to their residence.

Along the way, she looked at one of the young men and asked, "What do you call yourself, Fellow Daoist?"

"I am Heavenly Monarch Fang."

Such a domineering title... Empress Ci inwardly grumbled.

The aura of this young man was obviously only at the Fusion Realm, not even in the Upper Three Realms. But... his surname was Fang! That was important.

She then looked at the middle-aged swordsman. "And you, Fellow Daoist, what is your name?"

The middle-aged swordsman smiled and replied, "I am Fang Bahuang."

Also surnamed Fang!

"Fang Xuanyang."

"Fang Liubi."

"Fang Pusa."

"Fang Canglei."

"Fang Yinbing."

"Fang Yangguang."

"Fang Wushi."

A trace of shock flashed in Empress Ci's eyes, and the smile on her face faded a bit, replaced by a hint of seriousness. She properly arranged accommodations for the nine, instructing the servants to treat them well, then hurried to the main hall.

On the way, she met Stone Dragon, Yang Yuanwu, the Tai Yin Dragon King, Xing Xian, and others. She leaned in with a mysterious smile. "Everyone, do you know who I just met?"

"The lord," said Shi Long calmly.

Empress Ci's smile deepened. "Lord Stone, I did see the lord just now, yes, but he brought along a strange group of guests,"

The Taiyin Dragon King said impatiently, "Stop beating around the bush. What's the point? Just say it if you want to."

Empress Ci nodded. "Then I'll transmit it to all of you by sound transmission."

She told everyone what she had seen. The only person she didn't tell was Taiyin Dragon King

Taiyin Dragon King immediately became furious. "You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?"

Empress Ci was unfazed. She cast him a teasing glance. "What, you want to know? Beg me and I'll tell you."

Taitin Dragon King sneered and immediately turned to the others. "Well, tell me!"

True Monarch of Pan Mountain shook his head. "She didn't tell me."

"Enough," said Stone Dragon. "The lord brought nine Daoists. Their cultivation isn't high, but they all share the surname Fang. Empress Ci suspects that one of them might be the lord's offspring. When we get to the main hall, who among you will ask?"

"I'm not suspecting, only guessing. Lord Stone should be the one to ask about this matter. After all, he's an old minister," said Empress Ci with an embarrassed smile.

"Nne Daoists? Our foundation is getting stronger and stronger. It's only been a little over a hundred years, right? Thinking back to the beginning, this vast Jiangguang City only had a few of us. Now, hehe..." Tai Yin Dragon King laughed oddly, self-satisfied.

After all, many of the current underworld monarchs were forced to accept their appointments, but these few actively sought out their commissions. As this place grows stronger in the future, naturally, they will rise along with it.

At the main hall, not long after, those who had been notified all arrived. There was Yu Tingzhai from the Yin Holy Sect, Xu Changshi and Chen Lingding from the Spirit God Sect, Dangyin Mountain Lord, the various division heads of the Underworld, and Li Wuwang from the Heavenly Sword Division.

Fang Chen caught up with everyone briefly before getting straight to the point, listening to the ongoing reports on the changes in various factions over the past several decades.

Regarding the Dog-Beating Operation against the Myriad Immortal Palace, there have already been five successful strikes. There had been one third-transformation, one second-transformation, and three first-transformation deaths within Myriad Immortal Palace. There were no clues connecting the five victims, so it didn't raise the palace's suspicion.

Xu Changshi cupped his hands and spoke. "The Minor Immortal Realm has repeatedly urged the Grand Desolate Immortal. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so anxious and wouldn't have sent Song Zhili back. Lord, what do you plan to do with Song Zhili?"

Fang Chen smiled. "Can't kill him for now. If he dies right after returning, the Grand Desolate Immortal will be furious."

"Doesn't he think that by using Gong Tianxin of the Immortal Worshipping Palace and Yu Tingzhai of the Yin Holy Sect, the Spirit God Sect can gain the upper hand? Let him be for now. Let's see how many arrangements he still has on Tuxiong Star and Chaotic Star. We will wipe them out all at once."

Xu Changshi and Yu Tingzhai nodded in understanding. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Xia Ji said, "The Hidden Guard Division has also gained quite a reputation. Besides trading with the Killing Spiritual Division, it has established cooperative relations with over a hundred sects externally.

"I ordered people to cultivate some contacts across various places, who pass messages for us but know nothing about the Hidden Guard Division themselves and are just messengers. A few contacts were captured and tortured to death a few years ago, but no information about the division was obtained. The perpetrators and their sects were suitably punished. Since then, no one has dared to mess with the Hidden Guard Division."

"Those who have worked for us should not be mistreated. If trustworthy, recruit them directly into the Hidden Guard Division after death," said Fang Chen.

Xia Ji nodded.

Next came reports from the various divisions. In the years Fang Chen was absent, countless new City God Temples were added across the Nine Mortal Realms.

The role of the division in the Lesser Underworld was becoming more apparent, and the connections with the Nine Mortal Realms were gradually restoring to the ancient situation, though there was still a long way to go before reaching the peak of ancient times.

Finally, Empress Ci and Du Yunxu each handed over the surplus Yin Lifespan Coins accumulated by the Floating Pagoda Realm and the Lesser Underworld over the years to Fang Chen. These Yin Lifespan Coins were the surplus after deducting various expenses and reserve funds. Sometimes, the bigger the pot, the bigger the expenses. For people like Du Yunxu, Yin Lifespan Coins were necessary to improve their cultivation.

Now, Fang Chen's subordinates were no longer just a handful of small fry; even someone like Yu Tingzhai consumed a considerable amount of Yin Lifespan Coins annually. Therefore, the income of the Floating Pagoda Realm and the Lesser Underworld was increasing, but the surplus over the past several decades was not as much as imagined.

The Yin Lifespan Coins transformed into a vast and mighty force of karma, merging into Monarch Yan's Seal.

The figure immediately jumped to 345,729 years.
