Chapter 1350
"Your appearance has brought me great joy."
"A person who can conjure Hellfire with his bare hands has an immeasurable future."
"I am very much looking forward to this collaboration."
"They can sign a [Demon Contract] with you, and even actively cooperate with you to complete the [Soul Bond]."
"But the condition is that you first help me rescue myself from the eighteenth level of hell!"
Looking at the hellfire burning ever brighter beside him, the Asura King forced himself to remain calm and said...
Xu Shan, who didn't waste any words with the other party, sneered, "You don't have much time left."
“I can feel that your remaining consciousness is gradually dissipating.”
"It's not just the corruption of hellfire; perhaps the Styx Ancestor has already sensed something, hasn't he?"
"I've said it before..."
"Even without cooperating with you, I can still turn the entire underground cave upside down."
"Think it through."
Opportunities are fleeting.
Xu Shan, who showed no leniency towards the other party, firmly adhered to his bottom line in negotiations.
Just as he judged...
The Styx Ancestor, who was in seclusion, had already sensed the leakage of the Asura King's remnant soul.
They are actively and decisively cutting off all of this.
The Asura King, his remnant soul in turmoil, showed a slight change in his illusory form.
Time passed by minute by minute.
No one spoke again.
After several dozen breaths, the Asura King replied helplessly, "You have won."
"I crave freedom too much. I want the Styx Ancestor to be doomed forever."
'boom.'
As soon as he finished speaking, the Asura King, who had separated a soul and a spirit from himself, took the initiative to sign the [Earth Demon Contract] with Xu Shan from afar.
And draw the 'soul' back to its origin.
After completing all this, Xu Shan raised his right hand, and in the instant his palm opened...
The scarlet eyes completely devoured this soul and spirit into the true soul.
So far...
As long as Xu Shan's true soul remains intact, it will continue to firmly control the Asura King's 'vital point'.
Of course, if the Asura King could break through the [Creation] realm and reach the [Emperor Realm], any contract or restriction would be meaningless to him.
"It's time to settle old scores with Ancestor Styx."
After completing the contract, Xu Shan murmured with a ruthless expression on his face.
That night, Xu Shan, who was sleeping in the Phoenix Palace, comforted Shangguan Yan'er.
The hour of Yin Zi has just arrived; this is the best time to enter the underground cave.
After calming Yan'er and the others down, Xu Shan entered the underground cave amidst the blessings of the Tianfeng Clan members.
This marks the first time in sixty years that a mortal martial artist has once again descended into the underground realm, 'reversing the Heavenly Gang' (a term referring to the forces of nature) and attacking.
Regardless of the outcome, this day will be remembered by all cultivators in the mortal realm.
Xu Shan, the God of War of the Ming Dynasty and the strongest cultivator on Earth, enters the fray alone and strikes straight into the demon's lair!
Inside the cave...
Having noticed that the Asura King's soul had been missing for some time without him noticing its movements, the Styx Ancestor suddenly opened his eyes.
He vaguely sensed that something was wrong!
"This, this feeling, it's like the Asura King voluntarily signed a demonic pact with someone?"
"No, someone as proud as him would never be willing to submit to someone else."
"Then how did his remnant soul disappear?"
"Report!"
Just as the Styx Ancestor finished muttering these words to himself, a piercing sound came from outside the Nine Netherworld where he was in seclusion.
"Ancestor, something has happened."
"The Styx King's stone sculpture also shattered with a crash."
"The incident happened suddenly, and the other major demon kings were not outside the Styx Palace. As a result, his image at the moment of his death was made public in the form of a 'sky curtain'."
"what?"
Upon hearing this, the Styx Ancestor immediately roared in fury.
It should be noted that not long ago, the [Shaoyin Xuanwang] was ordered to randomly capture a few martial arts practitioners from the mortal realm and publicly declare them to be the culprits who harmed the Earth Demon King, the Lich King, and the Guanghan King—Xu Shan and his accomplices.
In the presence of many believers, they were executed.
This method has temporarily stabilized the situation.
As a result, he also gained a new batch of devout 'power of faith'.
But only a few days have passed...
The culprit, Xu Shan, who was originally sentenced to death, then killed his most prized disciple, Styx King, in the mortal realm.
More importantly, all of this was presented in the form of a 'sky curtain' to all the Earth Demon believers.
This is no longer just a slap in the face.
Instead, they completely destroyed their credibility.
"Xu Shan..."
"The day I emerge from seclusion, I will tear you to pieces."
After uttering those words in a low growl, the Styx Ancestor, having calmed down, questioned, "Now, what's the situation outside?"
"In response to the Ancestor, the believers in front of the Styx Palace are now in an uproar."
"Furthermore, we must get all the Demon Lords and Ancestors to step forward and give them an explanation."
“Even more so, there are radical believers, even more so…”
Upon hearing this, the Styx Ancestor coldly asked, "What else?"
"It is even more blatant that they insulted the soul sculptures of the Ancestor and other Demon Kings."
"During this process, a conflict also occurred with the Earth Demon Guards."
'boom. ’
Upon hearing this, the Styx Ancestor, who was deep in the Netherworld, slapped the stone platform beside him and shattered it.
"explain?"
"A bunch of ants, what explanation do they deserve?"
"How dare you insult my Soul Eagle?"
"Be punished!"
Although he roared these words angrily, the Styx Ancestor knew that if things were not handled properly, it could really cause a great upheaval.
Now, ten demon lords are with him here to suppress the constantly restless seal of the eighteen levels of hell.
The remaining four have already headed to the sealing point of the Gates of Hell in Jinling. They are ready to descend to the mortal realm at any time to cooperate with the Celestials in the Imperial Mausoleum's "Death Knell Plan".
This is precisely why such an accident occurred in the Styx Palace.
"Moro King!"
"The ancestor is here."
"You must immediately go to the Styx Palace to appease those demons."
“Tell them that the real ‘Xu Shan’ has actually been killed.”
"The Styx King's 'Sky Curtain' was deliberately used by those high-level martial artists in the mortal realm to incite turmoil in the underground world."
"Let them carefully examine them."
"Do not be misled by the confusing words of those cultivators in the mortal realm."
"The most urgent task now is to get them to continue their devout practice."
"Otherwise, the more scarce the power of faith, the more unstable the seal of the eighteen levels of hell will be."
"Yes!"
Upon receiving the order, Mara burst forth from the River Styx with a whoosh.
He shattered the void and followed the blood-red river towards the Styx Palace, hundreds of miles away.
"Ok?"
Just then, the Styx Ancestor suddenly sensed that there was 'life force' entering the underground cave on the road to the Yellow Springs.
But in the blink of an eye, it vanished!
He hesitated for a moment, then completely ignored it.
Every year, there are mortal cultivators who accidentally enter the underground cave through the secret realm.
When they faced the 800-mile-long Yellow Springs Road, they were either devoured by the earth demons who cultivated there, or swallowed up by the Yin energy!
It appeared and then vanished instantly.
Clearly, it was another unlucky soul who died on his way to the underworld.
