Chapter 159: The Death God Arrives! The Dead Enter Reincarnation!
After thinking about the Ghost Festival.
Bai Yu also took a deep breath.
“Speaking of which, I haven’t asked what the Ghost Festival is like in this extraordinary world.”
“Will there really be a hundred ghosts walking at night? I need to understand it first!”
Thinking of this, he didn’t hesitate and directly contacted Zhao Bin.
Zhao Bin quickly told him about the relevant information for the Ghost Festival.
“The Ghost Festival, the Ghost Gate opens, it is indeed true.”
“And the Underworld, which is related to this, has its main forces concentrated in our Ninth Administrative District, and the commotion it causes each time is not small.”
“However, the forces of the Underworld are mainly in the southern provinces.”
“Events like the Ghost Gate Pass will not happen in our area.”
“Why are you suddenly asking about this? Did you find something?”
After considering, Bai Yu said: “Bai Ling sensed the existence of a Netherworld barrier in He Tian Village. This should be the Underworld Big Boss we saw at the auction.”
“Moreover, the village guardian we met at the village entrance today not only has a contract with the Gluttony Demon but also inherited the Eastern Realm of Hungry Ghosts!”
He told Professor Li Maoshan about the Realm of Hungry Ghosts and its subordinate demon of Gluttony.
Only the Group Leader was present at the time.
So Zhao Bin naturally didn’t know about this matter!
Upon hearing this news, Zhao Bin couldn’t help but be startled.
His mind raced, and then he analyzed: “No wonder you said the accusation letter was given by a demon. And the official’s huge move this time doesn’t seem to be just targeting the Vampire Clan. Perhaps they’ve also uncovered the demon’s plan?”
“Yes, that’s how it looks for now.”
“Demons are not easy to deal with. On the official side, it might be a long-term operation. At least from what I’ve heard, many teams from various districts in Tianhai City have been mobilized.”
After a brief chat, they hung up.
Information about such large-scale personnel movements would naturally reach the ears of the Alien Races.
No one could say for sure how the event would unfold.
Bai Yu could only wait quietly.
“Speaking of which, the Yin Messenger intelligence only recorded the first, third, fourth, seventh, and ninth.”
“The two that were not recorded are likely related to the Northern Mountain Range and these demons!”
This intelligence, worth fifty intelligence points, seemed to have a long-lasting effect.
He had originally thought that due to the existence of the Ghost Festival.
The Village Chief, a Soul Snatching Yin Messenger, and the officials would wait until close to midnight, or after midnight, to act.
Who knew that at eight o’clock in the evening.
Bai Yu and the other two teams received orders to head to the He Tian Village area and await further action!
As they set off, they could feel that fewer people were playing on the streets within Sancha River Town.
It seemed the officials had made arrangements!
Under the cover of night.
Leaving the town and entering the forest.
Feeling the tranquility of the night.
They soon arrived near He Tian Village, found a hidden spot to park, and disappeared into the forest.
Accompanying them were two unfamiliar teams, seemingly from Linshui City.
These two teams, totaling fifteen people, were slightly older.
There were as many as five Spirit Yuan Realm cultivators!
The leader, a stubbled uncle, was Zhang Yi, the Group Leader of the third team in Linshui City.
Seeing how young Bai Yu and the other Tianhai City teams were, Zhang Yi, with an accent, chuckled: “Yo~ you’re all just kids? This operation isn’t simple, you know~ Be careful during the fight later, we can’t handle everything ourselves.”
Hearing this, Bai Yu just smiled and said nothing.
It’s hard to say who is stronger or weaker.
His gaze remained focused on He Tian Village. As a cultivator of the Lightning System’s orthodox path, he could sense a Netherworld power enveloping the area.
However, everything in the village seemed normal, with lights on in houses.
Bai Yu then looked towards the lodging area in the South Village where the travelers were staying.
Speaking of which, the travelers from last night should have been implanted with child demons.
Such was fate, and two people were fortunate enough to survive.
As for the rest, their fate was still unknown.
South Village.
At Tian Zhongyang’s home.
Originally, Tian Zhongyang was not in the village, but he received a command from the Mother and rushed back.
His wife looked out the window, worried: “Old Tian, after what happened today, what should we do? Hasn’t that Investigation Bureau discovered us yet?”
Tian Zhongyang looked very young at this moment, his wrinkles gone.
He was one of the child-mother bodies of the Mind Demon!
At this moment, he said indifferently: “What are you, a woman, worrying about so much? Not only did the higher-ups tell me to rush back overnight, but they also transported over a hundred Modified Beings through an underground passage. Now, even if the King of Heaven himself came, he’d lose a layer of skin!”
Hearing this, the woman’s eyes lit up. Her appearance had also changed, making her look like a beautiful young woman. This was the allure of possessing extraordinary power!
“They are already in the cellar?”
“Yes! Not just these hundred elite soldiers, but also over a hundred bottles of potions. I’ve already fed some to the mature ones. In this world, having people is key! And not only are we fine, but we now have so many soldiers, we can do great things.”
Clearly, Tian Zhongyang was very excited.
Moreover, according to his thinking, his superiors still needed him to work and continue building an army of Modified Beings, so there was no reason for them to abandon him.
And with so many Vampire Clan Modified Beings in hand, even if a Spirit Sea Realm cultivator came, he would have a chance to escape!
As the night deepened.
Bai Yu and his team were ready to fight at any moment.
But at this moment, the mountain in the center of Sancha River Town suddenly erupted with dazzling golden light.
The light radiated outwards! It looked like a huge commotion!
“???”
“With such a big commotion, won’t all ordinary people see it?”
Zhang Yi was a kind-hearted person and enthusiastically explained to Bai Yu and the other newcomers: “This golden light is nominally an event where the Buddhist Temple bestows blessings on pilgrims. This activity usually happens, and most of the time it’s just light effects.”
“Many pilgrims or Buddhist believers will come at this time for good luck.”
“It used to be announced in advance, but today it was announced on short notice.”
Understood!
The usual light effects were all preparations for this grand event.
The golden light of Buddhist Dharma, displayed by a half-step Heaven Yuan Realm Big Boss using the power of Buddhist Dao from the Buddhist Temple, was naturally incomparably brilliant and extremely powerful in effect, capable of suppressing the evil spirits in this area and weakening the strength of the evil creatures in this region, facilitating the official operation.
In the eyes of ordinary people, it was technology changing the world!
No wonder there were fewer people out tonight; they had gathered in the central area.
The next moment, He Tian Village moved!
The Netherworld barrier appeared.
This barrier could likely only be seen by Transcendent beings at the Qi Gathering Realm and above.
Without hesitation, everyone followed the original plan and quickly rushed into the barrier.
Inside the barrier.
Bai Yu was stunned after rushing in.
The houses were still the same houses, but like a beauty filter, these real-world objects began to distort continuously.
And many climbing weird spirit bodies appeared on the houses.
They didn’t look like Eastern cultural ghosts, but more like hellish monsters from Western mythology!
Their faces were blurred, their limbs were small, and their forms were bizarre.
“Roar~!”
Upon seeing living people, the spirit body monsters immediately pounced.
Yu Rundong, covered in spiritual energy, charged forward directly.
With a critical hit from his fist, he instantly sent the seemingly weak monster flying.
However, after his attack, he frowned slightly and said: “These monsters lean towards spirit bodies, so my attacks are not very damaging. You all should be careful too!”
But as soon as he finished speaking, a Palm Lightning landed on the spirit monster.
With a “boom~!” sound.
This weak spirit monster instantly turned to dust.
Spiritual Art + Lightning Orthodox Path, the effect was super great!
Yu Rundong: “.”
Damn Lightning Technique!
The battle began.
These hellish spirits seemed endless, constantly emerging from all directions.
Moreover, the surrounding environment was constantly changing, becoming more and more like the Underworld.
These spirits continuously assaulted Bai Yu and the others.
Dense, about three to four hundred, and still increasing!
Although their combat power was not strong, there were not many personnel like Bai Yu who could counter spirit body monsters.
It was quite troublesome for everyone to deal with them.
While fighting, Bai Yu also looked around. He could vaguely sense that these spirits were not just from the He Tian Village area.
Instead, they were the souls of the deceased from various deaths within the entire jurisdiction!
However, the souls and vengeful spirits that should have been from the Eastern Underworld had, for some unknown reason, all turned into Western-style hellish spirits.
‘Is it due to modification by the Demon Race? Or is it that the rules of the Underworld in this region are inherently like this?’
At this moment, Bai Ling’s voice came out: “Brother Bai Yu, it seems we have officially entered the Underworld.”
As he heard this, the buildings that looked like He Tian Village began to twist and crumble.
Hellfire burned all around.
This scene… it was truly Western hell!
Seeing this, Bai Yu and the others’ expressions became solemn.
What others knew was even less than what Bai Yu knew.
He at least understood that the current situation was likely related to the Soul Snatching Yin Messenger.
Having transformed into such a scene, their Investigation Bureau should still hold the initiative, but the subsequent development was unknown.
Just as he was thinking this, a figure suddenly appeared in the sky above hell.
A Yin Messenger!
He threw out his soul-snatching lock, which instantly transformed into dozens of chains.
These chains, with just a gentle strike, killed a large number of spirit bodies.
Immediately after, the Yin Messenger Kong Ming’s voice also rang out.
“Since you have left the mortal world, you should enter the cycle of reincarnation and be reborn.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he threw the chains in his hand towards a void.
It seemed to have ensnared something, and then with a strong pull, it straightened.
“Roar~!”
The one being tightly pulled was indistinct, and it let out a roar.
Bai Yu looked over and saw a bloated, large-mouthed, green-fanged monster.
A lot of saliva dripped from its mouth.
As it was pulled into this Netherworld Realm, its instinct to devour could no longer be concealed. It opened its giant mouth towards the surrounding spirit body monsters and swallowed them.
With over a dozen spirit bodies entering its mouth, its body slightly enlarged.
And its arm strength surged, tightly gripping the chain that bound its neck, trying to resist.
Although Bai Yu couldn’t recognize this monster from its face, he vaguely guessed that this was Tian Sheng!
The seemingly foolish village guardian.
“Has he died, entered the Realm of Hungry Ghosts, and then been modified by the Demon Race?”
“Hungry Ghost…”
He said this aloud, and others heard it, but they didn’t quite understand its meaning.
The next moment, as if from outside the Netherworld Realm, over a dozen evil ghosts roared and charged over.
The strength of these evil ghosts was all at the Spirit Yuan Realm!
Except for the one subordinate of Gluttony, from the Realm of Hungry Ghosts.
The other dozen or so evil ghosts were clearly distributed according to the ranks of the Seven Demon Kings of Hell.
Pride, Envy…
An evil ghost, suspected to be a subordinate of the King of Wrath, burning with flames, its aura grew stronger and stronger.
It was so frenzied that it even spat hellfire at the Spirit Sea Realm Yin Messenger.
The Yin Messenger didn’t indulge him and directly swatted him away.
“Bang!”
A force beyond imagination directly sent it flying, its initial speed even creating a sonic boom.
The monster’s head was more than half gone, bloody and mangled, rolling for a hundred meters on the ground.
Yet, even so, it was still alive!
The Yin Messenger clearly didn’t care about these dozen powerful evil ghosts.
He extended his chains again and threw them towards the ground.
Then, as if casting a spell, the hellish lava below was torn open.
“You all come in too.”
With just a faint sentence, a large number of blood-red skinned blood monsters poured out from the opening.
To be precise, they were more like being sucked over by some force.
Among these monsters, there were even over a dozen humans, including Tian Zhongyang and his wife!
These dozen or so were the main culprits of the Vampire Clan faction in He Tian Village, and many people were persecuted by them.
Past travelers, those who were attractive or wealthy, were all controlled and met a terrible fate!
For Tian Zhongyang’s family, who were not highly educated, these blood demon methods were much more effective than knockout drugs!
They were approached by the Mind Demon after committing crimes against travelers.
But at this moment, looking at the hellish scene around them.
Tian Zhongyang panicked!
“Here… is this the Underworld, or Western Hell?”
Having committed many evils, knowing about extraordinary powers, and being somewhat superstitious, he naturally became afraid.
After Bai Yu’s investigation this afternoon, he clearly knew the grave sins of these people.
No matter their strength, no matter the hundred Modified Beings.
Kill them all!
Fight until you develop a sense of awe for the Underworld!
Let your next lives be shadowed by this!
Bai Yu, enveloped in immense Lightning Force, suddenly charged forward.
Tian Zhongyang, seeing Bai Yu and the others, slowly recovered.
This wasn’t hell at all, just the means of the powerful!
Perhaps their own superior created this, pulling them in to fight.
And these investigators were the lambs to be slaughtered!
Thinking of this, he immediately commanded these Modified Beings: “Attack! Kill them for me!”
The Vampire Clan Modified Beings immediately roared and charged out.
But at this moment, in the distance, the vision was blurry, as if from somewhere outside the realm.
Green energy shot out in a parabolic trajectory.
Arrows! It was an arrow rain!
Soon, figures rushed in from outside the realm.
Elf Race!
And Bai Yu even saw a few familiar figures, the elves who had received them today.
They hadn’t returned and were participating in this major operation!
Upon closer thought, it was reasonable.
The best reinforcements for the Human Race were these friendly Alien Races from the Secret Realms!
This was something the Vampire Clan, Demon Race, and other forces could not have foreseen.
Just as the pressure decreased with the arrival of reinforcements.
The hellish lava below began to boil, and a large number of spirit bodies were suddenly strangled by an unknown energy, then floated into the air, forming a giant vortex.
And in the center of this vortex, a black-robed figure slowly took shape.
Its most distinctive feature was the scythe in its hand!
The Death God had arrived!
