Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon!-Chapter 797 - 795 Seems to Be the Divine Clan
The skies over Luo Feng Mountain had always been gloomy. It was as if, in the past ten thousand years, the colors here had remained simple and dull, much like the Nether Emperor slumbering in the bottomless abyss.
But at this moment, his heart was tumultuous as he reminisced about the person he had met years ago.
After a very long time, the Nether Emperor finally spoke. "I understand."
Gui Hua added, "The Heavenly Demon and Dark Demon have been suppressed. Moreover, the power of faith has emerged once again in that place, and previously, a part of the region even disappeared within the Netherworld."
These were significant events. The Heavenly Demon and Dark Demon had been suppressed. Furthermore, the reappearance of the power of faith was far more terrifying than the man of the Moon God descending into the Netherworld. Those people would not allow the power of faith to emerge because they were afraid.
From the depths of the abyss, a vibration suddenly resonated, and the Nether Emperor's voice grew heavier. "The power of faith, the Six Tao of Reincarnation... very good..."
From above, Gui Hua hesitated for a moment before saying, "That person left in a hurry."
Who? Wen Yuqing, of course. She had accidentally drawn the attention of Luo Feng Mountain by triggering the power of faith, then hurriedly departed afterward.
But Gui Hua didn't believe Wen Yuqing was afraid of the Netherworld. On the contrary, she wouldn't be scared; she would confront Luo Feng Mountain head-on. Yet now, she had left in such a rush. After leaving that region, she vanished without a trace, not even leaving behind a ripple of her presence.
"My Lord..." Gui Hua lowered his head, his tone becoming profound. If one listened carefully to just those two words, they would discern an undercurrent—a profoundness laced with an unprecedented fear.
The people of the Ming Tribe knew only of Luo Feng Mountain's existence, not its true origin—similar to the Dragon Veins and Spirit Veins of the Human World, which were all endless sources of life, transforming into Spirit Qi. Luo Feng Mountain was the same. It had an origin, which could also be called the End of Underworld. That was the root of Luo Feng Mountain, their source of life, and the reason Luo Feng Mountain had stood tall through countless years without falling.
Countless Divine Clan powerhouses had invaded the Netherworld, attempting to find Luo Feng Mountain's origin, but unfortunately, all had failed. The Nether Emperor had never compromised, even under constant oppression. He knew very well that once the origin was lost, not only Luo Feng Mountain but perhaps the entire Netherworld would be instantly destroyed.
Gui Hua's words plunged the Nether Emperor into silence. The origin of Luo Feng Mountain, the End of Underworld... That is the life spring of the Netherworld, he thought. No one can find it, but... that woman cultivating the power of faith can.
Not only that, in the Netherworld, there were not four Undying Kings, but five. The last Undying King was stationed at the End of Underworld. And he had another identity: Human Clan.
Yes! The fifth Undying King of the Netherworld was a bona fide Human Clan powerhouse.
Delving deeper into his identity, people would discover that besides being a Human Clan powerhouse, he was also one of the Wen Dynasty's ancient Great Divine Powers. In earlier years, he was the first mentor Wenliang had encountered. Later, when Wenliang's cultivation succeeded and he decided to establish a dynasty to rewrite the Human Clan's fate, this 'teacher' provided significant help. It could be said that without him, Wenliang could not possibly have founded the Wen Dynasty, even with Lord Jiu Yue's guidance. He participated in guiding, founding, building, planning, and so on. He witnessed Wenliang's rise and the Wen Dynasty's strength. Regrettably, he also betrayed the dynasty. This was a closely guarded secret. It was precisely for this reason that the powerful dynasty had crumbled and disintegrated in such a short time.
Afterward, he entered the Netherworld. Using some unknown scheme, he persuaded the Nether Emperor to let him guard the End of Underworld. Wen Yuqing's hurried departure must be to find this individual, the Nether Emperor mused. She has gone around in circles, repeatedly entering Reincarnation. Even when she had the chance for Tao Verification, she unhesitatingly gave it up. But now... she has come. And it seems different from before.
Wen Yuqing had personally unearthed the tomb of the God General, taken The First Warrior Token of the Dynasty, and then used Great Divine Power to conceal the area.
Gui Hua gasped. "Are Human Clan powerhouses truly more trustworthy than our Ming Tribe?"
To let a member of the Human Clan guard the source of the Netherworld... Many couldn't understand it. Luo Feng Mountain was not without its own powerhouses: four Undying Kings, eight great generals, sixteen Soldier Kings. Any one of them possessed the might to suppress the peculiarities at the End of Underworld.
The Nether Emperor whispered, "Go and erase her traces. Do not let the Divine Clan know."
Gui Hua jolted. "My lord? What did you say?"
Wen Yuqing is about to charge into the End of Underworld! If this isn't handled properly, it could very well destroy the Netherworld's source! For such a critical matter, the Nether Emperor actually wants to hide any trace of Wen Yuqing? He's not taking action? Not dispatching someone to stop her? Not even having an Undying King intervene?
The Nether Emperor's decision left Gui Hua incredulous. The Emperor's words clearly showed he was protecting her. He's indulging Wen Yuqing, Gui Hua realized.
Gui Hua stood lost in thought, unable to understand, his demonic eyes fixed on the abyss. But the Nether Emperor remained silent, offering no explanation.
「At that moment!」
On the flying ship in the Dead Sea, Jiang Ni'er also deduced Wen Yuqing's presence. Her face turned pale as she quickly ended the divination and revealed the truth.
Chen Pingping's eyes widened. "What did you say?"
"Your master seems to be in the Netherworld too," Jiang Ni'er said, "except... she seems to have disappeared again."
Chen Pingping was speechless. She appeared, and yet it was as if she hadn't appeared at all. In that case, the one on the Ancient Road must have been a fake, he thought. Realizing this, Chen Pingping breathed a slight sigh of relief.
The Begonia Tree beside them didn't understand these words. Bored, it had been gazing around the Dead Sea when suddenly, a figure appeared in its vision. No, it was another flying ship!
The Begonia Tree exclaimed, "Someone's there!"
In the vast Dead Sea, encountering other living beings was exciting but also nerve-wracking. After all, this place was too strange. They didn't know what kind of beings they had encountered—perhaps Ancient Ferocious Beasts, or even Divine Clan powerhouses. They had to remain alert.
"Stay calm. Let this old bird handle the negotiations," the Ancient Phoenix declared, stepping forward. After only a glance, however, she quickly returned.
The gravity of the Dead Sea is terrifying, she thought. Without the flying ship, I couldn't travel far. I'd run out of strength in less than ten minutes and potentially fall into the Dead Sea, becoming part of it.
The group fell silent, clearly accustomed to this phoenix's bravado.
Hmm? Although she hadn't ventured out, the Ancient Phoenix still caught a familiar energy fluctuation. "It seems like they're from the Divine Clan," she said.
Above the Heavens, countless Divine Clans existed, with dozens of large tribes alone, all shapes and sizes. Ordinary people couldn't distinguish between them. However, this phoenix had lived through that era, and fragments of lost memories occasionally resurfaced.
Upon sensing the other party's energy fluctuation, she blurted out, "The Dark Tribe! That's a major clan!"
The Ancient Phoenix said solemnly, "Their ancient ancestor is a primordial deity who wields the power of darkness. This isn't good! We need to run! They're coming this way!"
Indeed, the other party had spotted them and was steering their flying ship right towards them.
