For a few days in Fengtian City, what was talked about in the streets and alleys was none other than the marriage between Qin Feng and the princess.
These unattainable anecdotes had also become the talk of the town after their meals.
The growing power of Daqian and the hundred schools of thought have gradually made them forget the scourge and terror of demons and ghosts.
But outside Fengtian City, the scourge of the balance of life and death being broken has intensified, only under the intervention of the Demon Beheading Division and the imperial court, few ordinary people know about it.
The Realms of Transcendence that lurked in the four regions of Da Qian all sensed the strange changes, and they understood that a great catastrophe was about to come to this heaven and earth.
Some of them chose to leave the location where they originally stayed, so from time to time, the people saw that the great mountains seemed to be moving at night, and lightning flashed and thundered above the blackened clouds, where eight long serpent bodies were roaming around.
Sharp bird cries could be heard among the volcanoes.
Beneath the deep sea, huge black shadows passed by.
Of course, there were some cautious existences that chose to remain hidden in the void, and among them was the Lord of the Swamp.
He sniffed towards the air and said with an ugly expression, “A disgusting scent, similar to the scent that came through that Immortal Realm back when the gods and demons descended.”
He, who had always practiced that it was better to do more than less, was about to unfurl the Dao of Void to hide himself even deeper, but then he saw a body emitting holy white light skimming above the night sky.
In the face of calamity, not all existences would choose to retreat, but some would seek change and a chance to live, and the owner of that white light was clearly one of them.
“It’s that damnable white deer again” the whisper dissipated into the night.
In the Southern Region, near the highest peak of the moon, a silhouette stood with his arms folded, looking at the bright moonlight above his head, frozen in thought.
Along with a night breeze, the colorful horned white deer stepped into the void and gently landed beside the figure.
“You took the initiative to come looking for me, it seems that you have recovered most of your memories.” Light and delicate words spat out from the White Deer’s mouth, His eyes carrying remembrance and longing.
“I will return to the Immortal Realm.”
“I see.” White Deer nodded slightly, thousands of years of scheming, wasn’t it precisely for this moment?
He knew that the man in front of him was going to return to the Upper Realm and regroup his battle forces to fight the next crisis.
“What do you need me to do?”
“Help me protect one person.”
“Is he?”
“Uh-huh.”
On the other side, inside the Imperial Study Room, Emperor Ming looked at the zhengzuo that came from the four domains and frowned.
He knew that paper couldn’t hold fire unless the root of the problem was solved, but having talked to the Heavenly Supervisor State Master, he knew one thing, it wasn’t an easy task.
Emperor Ming pinched his brow and muttered, “I only hope that all of this can wait until after Ya’an finishes his marriage.”
At the top of the Hao Wen Academy’s Heavenly Ascension Building, the Heavenly Supervisor State Master stood with his hands in the air, his expression grave.
There was starlight glittering in his eyes, and suddenly he coughed violently, blood sliding down from the corner of his mouth.
Behind his originally empty place, the void was distorted, a figure slowly stepped out, it was the Zhen Shen Si Yu.
“Still using the Dao of Heavenly Destiny, are you in a hurry to seek death?” The white-haired, black-bearded old man said indifferently.
“All people have a death, but it’s just a matter of sooner or later, it’s you, how much longer can you hold out?” The Heavenly Supervisor State Master skimmed his head and looked away.
The surface of Zhen Shen Si Yu’s right hand was already cracked, yet not a bit of blood flowed out.
He snorted coldly, “It’s always longer than you.”
The rich Qi Qi brushed by, and his right hand was as good as new.
“What did you see? It backfired on you so much?” A moment later, Zhen Shen Siwu opened his mouth and asked.
“The upheaval of the Three Realms.” Zhen Shen Si Yu sniffed and frowned, “Could it be because of the upheaval in the Underworld Ghost Realm?”
The Heavenly Supervisor State Master nodded slightly.
“Since you have calculated this, why don’t you send someone to the Ghost Realm for support, you should have a way to do so.”
“It’s not time yet.”
In the Underworld Ghost Realm, the hall where the Ghost Lord was located.
Meng Frost was puzzled, “Lord Ghost Lord, the changes in the Ghost Realm clearly have nothing to do with the Southern Ghost Emperor, you know this, so why do you still want to lock him up in the Infernal Prison?”
The little loli sitting on the white bone throne leisurely opened her eyes, “The situation of the Ghost Realm today is the same as it was at the beginning of the mutation, and the slightest carelessness will lead to the end of all life.
Earth Store Bodhisattva told me that his golden mantle seal is suffering from a powerful intrusion, and that’s not just from within, but also from the outside world.”
Meng Frost’s brows knitted at the words, “What Your Excellency means is that some of us have defected to those guys?”
Her worries were not without cause, back then, when the Ghost Lord died and the Ghost Realm fell apart, apart from the power of the enemy, the internal collapse was also one of the major reasons!
A moment later, Meng Frost seemed to have thought of something, and her complexion changed alarmingly, “At this juncture, the ghost realm’s top combatants are in short supply, and all of them are well aware of that.
Yet even so, He, Lord Goddess Tantra, still wants to turn on Lord Qin.
Your Lordship’s nirvana rebirth and return to the Ghost Realm was originally a cause for celebration, but the God Tantra at the time didn’t seem to be very happy…”
“Before the truth of the matter is known, these words must not be spoken indiscriminately, the Divine Tantra has existed since the beginning of the Ghost Realm’s birth, and it is impossible for Him to wish to see the Underworld Ghost Realm subverted.” Little Lori shook her head.
“But why would He target the Southern Ghost Emperor? Between the two of them, there should be no faults.” Meng Frost was puzzled.
“Perhaps it’s because at such a critical time, Shentan doesn’t want problems to arise internally, so he wants to temporarily imprison the Southern Ghost Emperor, who came from the Broken Realm.
What’s more, although the Infernal Prison is a place where the void is cracked, the Southern Ghost Emperor will not have to worry about his life if he stays inside, and will be released when Zhao Wenhe finds out the truth.”
Just then, two figures stepped into the hall.
The Ghost Lord looked up, and the visitors were none other than Shentian and Zhao Wenhe.
One could only see that the former was imposing, while the latter had his brows furrowed in a manner that made him want to speak.
God Tantra was the first to speak, “The truth has been ascertained, the disorder in the ghost world, the balance of life and death being broken is inseparably related to the Southern Ghost Emperor.”
“Why do you say that?” The Ghost Lord’s eyebrows knitted slightly.
God Tantra didn’t explain too much, but instead took out a grain of black sand from his bosom.
The black sand floated in the air and projected a picture.
In the image, Old Father Qin was crossing the threshold into the realm of transcendence, with black and gold light lingering around him, and the laws of heaven and earth in the Ghost Realm were constantly being swallowed up and destroyed by that black and gold light.
However, just at the moment when Old Father Qin succeeded in his tribulation, a bone arm poked out from the nothingness and took away part of the black light, while Old Father Qin was oblivious to all of this!
“The Southern Ghost Emperor’s cultivation method is a thousand times different from that of the Ghost Realm, and that black and gold light may be the very thing that caused the balance of life and death to collapse.
The owners of the bone arms are those guys, the Southern Ghost Emperor is hiding this important matter and is up to no good, I hope Lord Ghost Lord will decide!”
The Ghost Lord’s expression was grave as he skimmed his head and looked towards Zhao Wenhe.
The latter exhaled a breath and said, “Lord Goddess, what you said is true.”
The black sand was the stray dust scattered in the void of the Ghost Realm, possessing the magical ability to retrace past images, making it difficult to fake.
With such facts in front of them, even Meng Frost could not absolve Old Man Qin.
“So, what do you wish this Lord to do?”
Shentan called out in a loud voice, “I implore the Ghost Lord to inflict the punishment of the Underworld Brake on the Southern Ghost Emperor as a warning to others!”
