In Tao's original practice, apart from oneself, only the blood knife absorbs the blood of other cultivators.
However, as Tao's strength increases, the blood level required by the blood knife is getting higher and higher, and the energy in the blood is not pure and needs to be further purified before it can be added to his body.
But these ghost cultivators in the underworld do not need to be purified at all and can be used directly.
This means that he can practice faster here than outside. How could this discovery not surprise him? Tao also longs for power and has always hoped to have strong power. Although their current strength is not weak, they are not weak.
They can only protect themselves, but they can't do it when facing those quasi-sages and saints.
Tao aspires to have the power of a saint, or even surpass it.
Longing for power, now that he had the opportunity to increase his power, he would not let it pass. After realizing the benefits of the ghost cultivator to him, Tao immediately stepped up his attack. Wang San, who was covered in blood, was suddenly in a panic.
The blood stain dispersed, and Wang San hurriedly retreated. When the six ghost kings saw Wang San's appearance, they all froze there.
One of Wang San's arms and one leg was gone. The long red hair was now messy and scattered, and half of it was missing. The most important thing was that Wang San's eyes were full of fear.
"Taotie, be careful!"
Gu Zheng suddenly shouted. The magic weapon Wang San summoned before had never had a chance to be used. Now that he got out of the trap, he immediately activated the magic weapon without hesitation and went towards Tao.
At this moment, he no longer thought about snatching the life and death book. Even if he could kill that Jinxian, the terrifying Daluo Jinxian in front of him could still kill him. At this time, his biggest enemy was the Daluo Jinxian in front of him.
At this moment, he hated the Ghost King of Yinshan Mountain to death. If the Ghost King of Yinshan Mountain were here, he would definitely kill him to satisfy his hatred.
The ghost king of Yinshan only reported that it was in the realm of Jinxian, not the Daluo Jinxian. If he knew that there was such a powerful Daluo Jinxian here, he would definitely not come here. This Daluo Jinxian has not yet used the life and death book. If the life and death book is in his hands,
Then he has no hope of taking it.
Wang San is quite self-aware and understands that he is no match for Tao.
A powerful blow, the full blow of Daluo Jinxian in the middle stage. When Wang San activated this magic weapon, Tao was already on guard. Gu Zheng's reminder made him make some preparations in advance. The bloody knife was blocked by him.
in front of me.
The bloody knife suddenly grew in size, and then he and the knife retreated together, and the entire hall suddenly lifted up.
The powerful blow completely destroyed the hall. The six ghost kings also noticed something was wrong when Gu Zheng shouted before and hurriedly retreated. But even so, the powerful aftermath still blew them away far away, and everyone suffered.
Injured.
As for the other ghost cultivators around the palace, 90% of them were stunned on the spot and disappeared without a trace.
After releasing this blow, Wang San didn't hesitate at all, turned around and ran away. As soon as he turned around, a yellow rush suddenly came and hit him.
Wang San screamed and fell to the ground.
Gu Zheng hurriedly looked at Tao. Although Tao was pushed back, he was still fine. The blood knife blocked the blow, and the blood knife was fine at all.
This made Gu Zheng even more confused. What kind of treasure was this? Not only did it have such abnormal offensive power, but it also had such strong defensive power. How come he had never heard of such a treasure in later generations.
What struck Wang San was the light of life and death, the natural nemesis of ghost cultivators.
Being hit by the light of life and death, Wang San's injuries became more serious. When he got up and wanted to run again, he had no chance.
"I am willing to surrender, I am willing to surrender!"
He hurriedly raised his remaining hand and shouted loudly that Gu Zheng and Tao had already surrounded him. If he didn't surrender, he might be killed on the spot.
"If you do this earlier, you will suffer less!"
Gu Zheng snorted coldly and did not pursue the powerful blow he had just unleashed. They were enemies. It was normal for the other party to have some killer moves. As long as Tao Tao was fine.
If something happens to Tao, Gu Zheng will kill this Wang San on the spot even if he finds Wu You and the others later.
Wang San surrendered. If he didn't surrender, he would die. He had lived for so long, and even in the underworld, he didn't want to die and end up with both body and soul destroyed.
The six ghost kings were called over by Gu Zheng again. When they saw Wang San standing in front of Gu Zheng with his head lowered, they were all shocked. Then they stood aside obediently, waiting for Gu Zheng's instructions.
"Let me ask you, how many subordinates like them do you have in total?"
Gu Zheng stretched out his finger and pointed at the six ghost kings and asked. Wang San hurriedly replied: "There are sixty-three in total. I don't count them too many. Others control more. The one who controls the most people is Wang Shuo."
, the number of people he controls is at least three thousand!"
Wang San said quickly, Wang Shuo is a famous powerful force in the underworld, but he is not the only one, otherwise the underworld would have been ruled by him long ago.
There are only sixty-three people like Wang San who follow them, so they can only be considered small forces. There are forces like the Ghost King of Yinshan in the underworld. I don’t know how many there are, but there are many.
"Wang Shuo, how strong is he and where is he now?"
Gu Zheng's eyes lit up slightly. Wang San only had more than 60 small forces, but Wang Shuo had more than 3,000. This realization was not a small thing, it was dozens of times higher.
The stronger the power, the easier it is to inquire about information for him and find Wu You and the others. Gu Zheng has already focused on Wang Shuo.
"Wang Shuo is very powerful. His cultivation has reached the middle stage of Da Luo Jinxian. If not, there wouldn't be so many people approaching him. He lives in the middle reaches of the Wangchuan River!"
Wang San did not dare to hide it. Now his life was in the opponent's hands. Wang Shuo's strength was not a big secret. It could be learned not only from him but from other ghost kings, so he did not dare to lie.
"The middle stage of Daluo Jinxian?"
Gu Zheng suddenly raised his head and looked at Wang San, who looked horrified.
After a while, Gu Zheng continued to ask: "In the underworld, how many Daluo Jinxian are in the middle stage of cultivation, and how many are in the later stage?"
Gu Zheng did not ask about the quasi-sage. Ghost cultivators cannot reach the quasi-sage. Without a physical body, it is impossible to become a saint. Ksitigarbha is a quasi-sage, but he is not a ghost cultivator. He is a serious Buddhist Bodhisattva. His physical body remains in the underworld.
Guard the underworld.
"I don't know exactly how many there are in the middle stage of Da Luo Jinxian, but it will not be less than ten. As for the ones in the later stage, I don't know!"
Wang San quickly replied, the underworld is so big, there must be a group of Daluo Golden Immortals, but Wang San doesn't know the exact number. The forces in the underworld are too scattered. As a result, no one knows the specific number of Daluo Golden Immortals.
The public Da Luo Jinxian is fine, but there are also some Da Luo Jinxian who only like to cultivate in secret and have no interest in any force at all. Such Da Luo Jinxian, even Wang Shuo may not know their existence.
There are at least ten Daluo Jinxian in the mid-term and above. This number is not unexpected in ancient times.
After all, the underworld is one realm, or one of the upper realms. The masters of the ten halls of the cave in later generations are all powerful in the late stage of Daluo Jinxian. Now is the early days of the prehistoric period, and it is nothing if there are more than ten ghost cultivators in the middle stage.
After all, the underworld has existed since the creation of the world. In the prehistoric times, there are more than ten people who have cultivated in the middle stage of Da Luo Jinxian or above in the human race.
However, there should not be many in the later period. After all, it has not been long since the founding of the sky, and there are very few even in the prehistoric times. Zhen Yuanzi is a quasi-sage, but he himself is not a person who only existed after the opening of the sky. He has heard of
Hongjun preached as an innate person.
"Forget the River?"
Gu Zheng raised his head. This is a famous place in the underworld. There is a bridge on the Wangchuan River, named Naihe Bridge. After the ghosts of future generations die, they will drink a bowl of Meng Po porridge on the Naihe Bridge to wash away the memories of the previous life.
memory.
But there is more than one Naihe Bridge, there is only one Naihe Bridge, how can it be possible with so many dead souls every moment? I don’t know if there is a Naihe Bridge now, but Meng Po Tang certainly doesn’t. It was after the underworld forces were established.
Something that only exists.
The current souls of the dead retain the memories of their previous lives in the underworld.
Wang San looked at Gu Zheng with some worry. Gu Zheng ignored him at all and asked other ghost kings to prepare a place for him so that Wang San could cultivate himself. In three days, he would take Wang San and set off to find Wang Shuo.
In the air, Gu Zheng and Tao were on the left and right, while Wang San was in the center, flying quickly.
In three days, it was impossible for Wang San to recover, but fortunately he was not a physical body, and his arms and legs had grown back. His body was still weak, and his face became paler.
The sky is gloomy, there is no light all year round, and there is no sun in the underworld. It is always gloomy. The advantage of this is that the yin energy is very strong, which is very suitable for ghost cultivation.
Wang San only knew a rough idea of where Wang Shuo lived, and it was not close to him.
After flying for more than a month, they arrived near the place Wang San mentioned. This was already Wang Shuo's territory, but he didn't know exactly where Wang Shuo was.
On the ground, among the weeds, Gu Zheng was cooking a pot of porridge. Not long after, Wang San ran over with a ghost cultivator.
To find out the information, the task of arresting people was given to Wang San. As for whether Wang San would escape, Gu Zheng was not worried. He had made a lot of preparations before coming, and specially prepared three ghost locators. Wang San
As long as he runs away, he can be located at any time.
This kind of locator is not easy to make, and there are only three of them in Gu Zheng, so it was not used on the Ghost King of Yinshan before. Wang San is still a Da Luo Jinxian anyway, so it is worth using one.
After knowing the function of the locator, Wang San completely gave up his desire to escape. He was not in the best condition now, and he saw the speed of Gu Zheng and Tao along the way. With the locator, he couldn't escape at all.
What Wang San captured was a kid, a kid who wasn't even a fairy.
But they are not ordinary ghosts. They have still cultivated some power. If such ghost cultivators were in the mortal world, they would definitely scare a lot of people, but there would be many more in the underworld.
Wang San is a great Luo Jinxian, but he wants to catch such a brat, which makes him really depressed.
"May I have your name?"
Gu Zheng looked at the captured ghost cultivator and asked directly. The ghost cultivator was not old, only in his early twenties, and he had a look of fear on his face.
"To my lord, the younger one's name is Huang Xiaolei!"
When Wang San caught him, he had no resistance at all, especially when Wang San leaked a little bit of Daluo Jinxian's aura, which almost made him freeze. At that moment, he understood that the other party was much stronger than him.
too much.
His captor is so powerful, but his captor has to obey the orders of the person in front of him. How dare he be dishonest and say whatever he asks.
"Huang Xiaolei, let me ask you, which force are you loyal to, and where is your ghost king?"
Gu Zheng has understood that most of the practicing ghosts in the underworld have their own forces, otherwise they would not have the qualifications and resources to practice. There are not many casual cultivators in the underworld, but they are not many. Gu Zheng does not believe that he is so unlucky, and directly encounters
Go to a casual cultivator.
The casual cultivators in the underworld are basically in places with few people.
"Sir, I am under the command of the Ghost King of the Four Seas. Our king is in Yandu City!"
Huang Xiaolei hurriedly replied, Yandu City, Gu Zheng raised his head and looked at Wang San. Wang San hurriedly explained: "I rarely come to Wang Shuo's side, and I don't know where Yandu City is!"
The underworld also has cities. Many ordinary ghosts live in the cities, and there are also some practicing ghost cultivators. Unlike the prehistoric mortal world, the rulers of the cities in the underworld must be cultivators.
In the prehistoric period, because the rulers of the ground were the Witch Clan, human cultivators were unwilling to have any misunderstandings with the Witch Clan before, so they rarely intervened in the rule of mortals. Even if they lived in the city like before the ancient war, most of them did not care about the secular world.
Mortal affairs are resolved by the mortals themselves.
The underworld is different. Everything here is handled by ghost cultivators, even in future generations.
The Ten Palaces of Yama are ten big cities in themselves. There are many ghost cultivators inside, as well as many ordinary ghosts.
"Take us to Yandu City!"
Gu Zhengwei didn't know where Wang Shuo was without Huang Xiaolei. It was impossible for someone of his level to know about Wang Shuo's existence. It was useless to ask. If he wanted to ask, he would also ask their Ghost King. Only people with the strength of the Ghost King could directly contact Daluo Jinxian.
Yandu City is not a big city, it can only be regarded as a small city, with about a million ghosts living in it.
There are millions of ghosts, but ghost cultivators actually only have tens of thousands.
There are many ghosts in the underworld, but there are not many cities, so millions of ghosts are all in small cities. Ghosts are different from mortals. Ghosts have no physical body, so they can walk very fast. If the speed is fast, the range of activities can be larger. There are also ghosts
Without a physical body, you can live in many places, and the living environment requirements are not so high.
A mortal house may only be able to accommodate a dozen people at most, but in the underworld, hundreds of ghosts can live in a house of the same size without any problem.
Yandu City is not far away. With Huang Xiaolei leading the way, Gu Zheng and the others arrived quickly. Similar to cities in the mortal world, Yandu City also has city walls, gates, etc., and there are ghost cultivators guarding the gates.
With Huang Xiaolei leading them, Gu Zheng and the others entered the city smoothly. The inspection at the city gate was not strict and was very sparse.
Even if they are detected in Gu Zheng, they don't have any worries. No one here can stop them. They are here just to find someone. It doesn't matter whether they make any noise or not.
"Sir, my king is in the Four Seas Ghost King's Mansion, and over there is the Four Seas Ghost King's Mansion!"
Huang Xiaolei took Gu Zheng and others outside a large palace complex and did not dare to go inside. Without permission and notification from above, he was not qualified to enter the Ghost King's Mansion.
The Sihai Ghost King's Mansion is where the rulers of the city live, and it is also the most powerful place in the city.
"Lead the way, let's go in!" Gu Zheng looked at it and then nodded.
"grown ups……"
"Lead the way, no need to worry!"
Before Huang Xiaolei finished shouting, Wang San pushed him hard. Fortunately, Wang San didn't use any force, otherwise he would have been beaten to death.
Wang San himself is not in a good mood. The dignified Luo Jinxian is in a good mood now that he is being manipulated like a human being. Not to mention that Gu Zheng and the others are not worried, even Wang San himself is not worried. Even if he is injured, this
No one in the city can hurt him.
Here, only Wang Shuo made him worry.
Huang Xiaolei had no choice but to lead them inside, and he also turned into a bitter face.
"For what?"
There were also guards in front of the Ghost King's Mansion. When they saw them, they immediately stepped forward to question them. Gu Zheng didn't say anything. Wang San glanced at him, then stepped forward and slapped the two people who were coming to fly away.
Gu Zheng walked in without paying any attention to the people outside. Huang Xiaolei had no choice but to follow.
When they walked far in, there was a noise outside. Wang San didn't do anything. There were ordinary ghost cultivators outside. Killing such a ghost cultivator wouldn't be enough to lose points, so he just had to teach him a lesson.
After the two ghost cultivators who were shot away reacted, they immediately issued a warning. Only then did people know that someone had broken into the Ghost King's Mansion without permission, and many people started to move.
After a while, many people came out, which saved Gu Zheng some trouble.
"That's our king!"
Huang Xiaolei was pulled out by Gu Zheng to identify someone, and he timidly pointed at a person. The person was in the center, very tall, and the people around him were surrounding him. They were looking at Gu Zheng and Tao them solemnly.
"You are not ghost cultivators, how could you come to my underworld?"
The Ghost King was not a brat like Huang Xiaolei. He could tell at a glance that Gu Zheng and the others were the bodies of living people. He asked doubtfully. Gu Zheng confirmed his identity and didn't waste any words. He only gave Wang San a wink.
Wang San immediately stepped forward and caught the Ghost King of the Four Seas.
"Daluo Jinxian!"
The Ghost King of the Four Seas' eyes tightened fiercely. Even if Wang San was injured, it was still beyond the reach of a late-stage Golden Immortal like him. After seeing Wang San's strength, fear appeared in his eyes.
"Sir, I am a subordinate of Lord Wang Shuo. Is there any misunderstanding? If there is any misunderstanding, I am willing to apologize to you!"
The Ghost King of the Four Seas was easily captured by Wang San and brought directly over. Wang San did not restrict him from speaking, so the Ghost King of the Four Seas shouted loudly.
"No misunderstanding, we are here just to see Wang Shuo. You tell him that I have something to discuss with him and invite him to come here to discuss it!"
Wang San did not speak, but Gu Zheng said lightly. The Ghost King of the Four Seas finally understood that Gu Zheng was the real person in charge. Under Gu Zheng's gaze, the Ghost King of the Four Seas nodded quickly without any hesitation.
"Let him send the message, and we will stay here temporarily!"
Gu Zheng gave instructions to Wang San, and without waiting for his consent, he took Tao directly to the Ghost King's Mansion. No one dared to stop them along the way, and they all hurriedly hid aside.
