Chapter 1406: Chapter 1400: The Bridge Of Helplessness

The Underworld.

This was the place the Hundred-Slaughter Star Lord was least willing to mention.

Within the Grandhaven Immortal Domain, beneath the light and shadow, was a boundless sea of blood.

Even in the lands outside the Blood Moon, one could still feel the despair of those Underworld beings within the blood sea.

“Star Lord…” The Fire Immortal walked up beside Zu Ren, having come up with a new idea.

“Now is the best time for us to reap the fisherman’s profit.

Whether it is Li Dalong or Min Tiange, as long as we kill them, we can claim credit with the Superior Immortals, and we can advance further by acquiring more kin.”

“…”

Zu Ren continued to walk forward in silence.

He saw dissatisfaction in the eyes of the Four Killing Generals of Wind, Fire, Thunder, and Lightning.

Even as immortals, they still needed to use any means necessary to acquire more benefits.

Immortals were born as immortals; from the moment of their birth, they possessed what the mortal realm called the ‘Void Refinement’ realm, controlling rules.

However, their advancement also required more time.

Through long epochs, undergoing transformation via the faith, flesh, and blood of mortal beings, as long as they broke through once, then even if they fell into oblivion, upon awakening again, they only needed sufficient energy to restore their strength to its absolute peak before their fall.

Even they needed to fight tooth and nail for kin.

Those stronger than them were called ‘Superior Immortals’ by the lesser immortals.

This pyramid-like hierarchical system was deeply rooted, and every immortal wanted to climb higher.

Immortals ruled over immortals, and then ruled the world.

But they still had things they feared, and Zu Ren was no exception.

He led the Fire Immortal forward, His voice deep. “My last fall into oblivion… happened in the Underworld.”

“What?!!”

The Fire Immortal was stunned.

Zu Ren was the most diligent among the immortals of the Thunder Department, and also the existence most trusted by the Superior Immortals.

He had never failed when the Thunder Department suppressed rebellious beings in the mortal realm. Yet, no one knew how Zu Ren had fallen into oblivion.

The Fire Immortal looked toward the Grandhaven Immortal Domain; He finally understood why Zu Ren was so apprehensive.

“The Underworld was created by us to allow living beings to reincarnate, continuously providing us with food,” Zu Ren said in a deep voice.

“It is also the place we are least willing to go. Originally, the Underworld was merely to let dead beings reincarnate, but wherever living beings exist, order will always form.”

“Gradually, the ghosts of the Underworld took on official duties.

They began to judge the good and evil of deceased beings, punish their transgressions, and determine their reincarnation based on that good and evil.

Later, growing dissatisfied, they began devising ways to wipe the memories of the living beings. That place was called…”

“The Bridge of Helplessness.”

Zu Ren looked back at everything happening within the Immortal Domain, the fear of the past rising in His heart once more.

“When the Underworld rebelled, I was the first to go suppress it, and I fell into oblivion right on the Bridge of Helplessness!”

“Was it the ruler of the Underworld who attacked the Star Lord?” the Fire Immortal asked in shock.

“No.”

Zu Ren stared heavily at the blood-red light within the Immortal Domain.

“The Bridge of Helplessness is merely the first checkpoint of the Underworld.

It seems even you immortals who fell into oblivion later do not know how the Underworld was destroyed, but what I want to tell you is that the moment I entered the Underworld, I knew it would become a considerable threat to us.”

“The ruler of the Underworld?”

Zu Ren clenched His fists tightly, as if wanting to crush the humiliation between His teeth. “I lost my life at the hands of a City God!”

“This…” The Fire Immortal’s eyes widened. When He was in the Immortal Court, as long as it was an order from the Immortal Court, the Underworld had acted like obedient running dogs.

“Unexpected, isn’t it? The Underworld has many layers of Hell, yet I lost my life at the hands of a City God.

Through the deaths of living beings, they had accumulated a formidable power that even we could not ascertain!”

Zu Ren narrowed His eyes. “If what Li Dalong controls are the methods of a Nether Official or a City God, then he is already worthy of my attention.”

“If it is the Ten Underworld Kings…”

He cast a glance at the Four Killing Generals and whispered to the Fire Immortal,

“Tell these three idiots to behave. If it is the inheritance of the Ten Underworld Kings of the Underworld, or a higher Ghost Emperor, even if he is only at the Body Integration realm, then the moment you discover him, you must be prepared for one thing.”

“Prepared for what?” The Fire Immortal swallowed hard.

“To flee!”

A cold wind carried the bloody stench of the Nether River from within the Immortal Domain.

Zu Ren’s voice made the Fire Immortal tremble.

“Of course, if you can actually manage to escape the methods of a Underworld King, that alone would be enough to make you proud.”

……

The Imperial Capital.

Li Wei continued his massacre, but the sudden changes beneath the Blood Moon caused his expression to change as well.

Su Chen is the Child of Destiny? Perhaps today, after crossing sixty thousand years, Su Chen deserves the title of Child of Destiny, but in front of Min Tiange, he is gradually losing his ranking.

Min Tiange is unwilling to submit to destiny, climbing above it instead.

“Hiding his strength, about to break through to the Mahayana realm…”

Li Wei stood before the Heavenly Edict Sect, a faction loyal to Wenren Xianyi.

At this moment, the cultivators within the Heavenly Edict Sect were overwhelmed, continuously reinforcing their array formations, yet they still barely clung to life under Li Wei’s Tai Chi Dao method.

The Sect Master had begged for mercy more than once.

Amidst his murmurs, Wenren Xianyi in the Heavenly Palace sent another voice transmission.

It was nothing more than bullshit, hoping he would leave, hoping the Azure Cloud Li Clan could cooperate with the Imperial Capital again.

But this time, her words seemed a bit more certain.

Wenren Xianyi seemed to have some means of contact with Min Tiange, and the two sides kept each other in check.

The shattering of Min Tiange’s plans was actually tremendous news for Wenren Xianyi.

This wildly ambitious Empress believed that after Min Tiange was abandoned by the immortals, she was his only choice, and he would subsequently serve her!

At this moment.

Inside the Golden Throne Room, Wenren Xianyi’s expression finally looked a bit better after experiencing the Li Clan’s Old Ancestor wreaking havoc in the Imperial Capital.

“Why must you deal with us like this? You master spatial rules, and Min Tiange masters the Dao of Light and Shadow. He will return.”

“A Mahayana realm Min Tiange…”

Wenren Xianyi still controlled everything.

However, her expression, which had just improved a bit, gradually showed impatience.

The Li Clan’s Old Ancestor, still at the Heavenly Edict Sect, furrowed his brows, cut off her voice transmission, and ultimately sent her only one final sentence in return.

“It is February; there shouldn’t be cicadas chirping. The noise is annoying.”

Subsequently, Li Wei licked his lips, looking down at the terrified cultivators of the Heavenly Edict Sect on the ground, and murmured,

“Since he hasn’t broken through to the Mahayana realm, then there is nothing to fear.”

Looking at the interface before him, Li Wei shook his head.

Beneath the Underworld, there was only chaos and despair, and Li Dalong had stayed there for centuries!

He still remembered the day Li Dalong sat in the Underworld King’s Hall and took control of the Underworld King Token.

The karmic luck of the entire Underworld gathered around Li Dalong, making him the final Underworld King of the Underworld.

Over these years, Li Dalong had been digesting the inheritance of the entire Underworld; until today, he finally emerged from it.

[Your descendant Li Dalong has gained the favor of the Underworld’s will. After becoming an Underworld King, he is blessed by the ancient inheritances of the Underworld.

They believe that an existence who knows how to command fierce ghosts, nether souls, and Underworld Officials in the Underworld is the only one qualified to rebuild the Underworld and restore the order of reincarnation.]

[Your descendant Li Dalong has obtained the inheritance of Meng Po. He can cultivate it and impart it to Underworld Officials.]

[Obtained the inheritance of Ox-Head and Horse-Face…]

[Obtained Dharma Treasure: Bridge of Helplessness]

[Obtained…]

[Book of Life and Death]

Li Wei sensed the prying eyes from the Heavenly Palace.

It was a pity he couldn’t wreak havoc in the Heavenly Palace, but fortunately, he felt the Empress’s furious gaze.

The entire Imperial Dynasty treated him as the most powerful existence in the Azure Cloud Li Clan, and also the strongest below the Mahayana realm.

Of course…

If not for the rules of time and space, Li Wei wasn’t sure if he deserved these titles.

Because the mountain villager who once bore the [Wild Boar Killer] trait had taken the Underworld King’s throne, going from the [Hope of the Entire Village] to becoming the hope of the Underworld.

……..

The world was divided into black and white.

The blood sea flowed backward, and the ground was the Nether River, reeking with the stench of blood!

Above the Nether River, nether souls and fierce ghosts were struggling. No matter what they did, they could not leave the blood sea.

Their hideous, twisted bodies thrashed toward the sky in a desperate attempt to escape the Nether River.

The backward-flowing blood sea and the Nether River on the ground appeared even more eerie within this black and white world.

The wails of the Nether souls and fierce ghosts were mournfully shrill.

“Not good!”

Min Tiange, who had originally looked down upon the mortal realm like a god, experienced a sudden, drastic change in expression the moment the Heaven-Piercing Coffin.

The crack of the opening Heaven-Piercing Coffin seemed to possess a darkness even more profound than his Dao of Shadow, much like an abyss.

From the abyss, a bridge gradually emerged.

This small bridge floated above the Nether River, looking exceptionally unadorned and plain.

It then extended infinitely, reaching all the way to the edge of the backward-flowing blood sea.

Because… Min Tiange’s Great Dao of Light and Shadow had already flown toward the edge of the blood sea.

Boom!

The bridge trembled. At the spot where Min Tiange had just been, his shadow remained, but he had already attempted to escape via his Great Dao of Light and Shadow.

This escape attempt, however, was a futile effort.

At the edge of the blood sea, long tongues suddenly appeared one after another, spreading out densely across the blood-red waters.

“What is this?!!”

Min Tiange halted, his eyes filled with dread.

When the Heaven-Piercing Coffin opened, he had already lost the will to fight and instinctively wanted to leave.

Only at this moment did he finally understand that his instinct had been absolutely correct.

With Half-Step Mahayana Spiritual power, the extreme speed of his Great Dao of Light and Shadow could even burst through the Red Dust Immortal’s Red Dust Realm.

Yet, at the edge of the blood sea, his Dao of Light and Shadow actually failed to break through.

He seemed to be fighting against a world that had endured for countless eons!

Countless disgusting tongues appeared within the blood sea.

He seemingly saw innumerable souls having their tongues ripped out; these souls were repenting.

This reminded him of a legend from the Underworld: The Hell Layer I: The Silence Maw.

As this Spiritual power invaded toward him, he was forced to use his Half-Step Mahayana Dao methods to resist.

Even so, he still felt an invisible pair of hands prying open his mouth, attempting to rip his tongue out!

Meanwhile, the bridge extending from the Heaven-Piercing Coffin was luring him to cross it and enter the blood sea on the ground.

Although he hadn’t stepped onto the bridge, he could still feel this Dharma Treasure eroding his memories and Spiritual power.

Min Tiange lowered his head, looking at Li Dalong floating in the Nether River.

His expression gradually shifted from dread to solemn regard and vigilance.

Because this former Patriarch of the Li Clan, who had returned from the Underworld, reached his hand into the Heaven-Piercing Coffin and slowly pulled out a book radiating an ancient, unadorned aura.

Then, amidst the roars and shrieks of the nether souls and fierce ghosts within the blood sea, using the exact same indifferent tone that Min Tiange had just used to look down on the people of the world, he sentenced him to death.

“Min Tiange, your mortal lifespan has reached its end.”
