Snow mountain.
A gigantic snowball stood in the sky, like the sun. If there were others here, they would surely be startled.
Boom!!!
Suddenly, the snowball exploded, and an extre cold spread in all directions. Countless Demon Beasts buried in the snow instantly froze, revealing one ice sculpture after another.
These Demon Beasts, containing Ice Cold Power within them, were frozen instantly, showing just how terrifying that just now Extre Cold Power was.
As the snowball exploded, a figure slowly descended from it. His posture was tall and straight, with ice-blue hair, snow-white skin, and a handso appearance. The white robe he wore made him look like an elegant young noble, exuding an extraordinary aura.
Chen Lan slightly opened his eyes, his ice-blue pupils were exceptionally dazzling. Instead of looking unusual, he appeared more charismatic. However, his gaze was extrely cold, so cold it was frightening.
"I didn’t expect that after reaching the pinnacle of the Great Dao, my appearance and body would change." Chen Lan looked down at his hands, took off his white robe, revealing refined muscles, yet his skin color had beco entirely white, as white as the snow on the ground, making him feel unaccustod.
Moreover, his height seed to be over 1.9 ters, nearly 2 ters, forcibly stretching his bones, further developing.
This was normal. In the Cultivation Realm, after basic cultivation, one would usually develop again, growing much taller. Before cultivation, Chen Lan was just 1.8 ters, manifested was over 1.8 ters, nearly 1.9 ters. Now with this developnt, he’s close to 2 ters.
Chen Lan waved his large hand and returned to his forr appearance and body, still preferring his original form.
Looking around, many Demon Beasts had beco ice sculptures, but he discovered he could control the Ice Cold Dao Power within these Demon Beasts.
With a snap of his fingers, countless ice sculptures lted away their coldness, revealing the true appearances of those Demon Beasts.
"Kneel!" Chen Lan spoke coldly, his voice like a great bell, resounding across millions of miles.
In an instant, countless Demon Beasts knelt simultaneously in Chen Lan’s direction, utterly devout, speaking in human tongues: "Greetings, Master!"
At their level, they had long since gained Spiritual Wisdom and could already speak human language.
Seeing this, Chen Lan grinned. It was just as he had thought, having gained control over this army of Demon Beasts.
Since there was no Celestial Cold Snow Lotus here anymore, nor any other treasures, Chen Lan planned to leave.
When Li Guolong submitted to him, he learned where this place was, how to leave, and Li Guolong gave him a Secret Technique, a very peculiar Secret Technique.
[Technique of Moving the Five Viscera and Six Bowels]
It sounded strange, but knowing the effect of this Secret Technique, one could call it a Divine Technique!
Simply put, this Secret Technique could move the five viscera and six bowels to different positions within the body without causing any bodily disorder, everything remains normal!
For example, moving the heart to the buttocks, so if soone stabs your chest, they won’t hit the heart, utterly invincible.
But when relocating, one must endure imnse pain, and if they can’t bear it, they will die.
Originally planning to cultivate this Secret Technique, Chen Lan found that he had two hearts. He couldn’t move both at once, only other viscera and bowels.
Perhaps the creator of this Secret Technique never thought soone would have so many hearts.
Chen Lan felt regretful that he couldn’t cultivate this Divine Technique, but at least he could teach it to others, not too bad.
This place is much farther from the Netherworld, where the Underworld is located.
There was no way to predict where he would end up after the collapse of the Space Tunnel.
If he continued on this journey, it would take at least half a month more. The Desolate Celestial Realm was truly vast, many tis bigger than the Blue Star.
...
Underworld.
"Your Highness, in half a month it will be the Netherworld Celebration. Should we start preparing gifts in advance?" Gathered in the Celestial Emperor’s Palace, Ten Yamas looked at the seated Shadow Emperor, as King Yama spoke.
The Netherworld Celebration, an annual event hosted by the Great Emperor of the Netherworld, was effectively the Emperor’s birthday. At that ti, countless people would be invited, possibly even other Dao Emperors, making the scene quite grand.
However, it’s said that the Great Emperor of the Netherworld has a strange personality, disliking people from outside the Netherworld. So, each year’s celebration only invites various forces within the Netherworld and closes the realm for three days, during which no one can enter or leave.
The various forces had already begun preparing gifts to offer the Great Emperor of the Netherworld. In the Netherworld, who wasn’t afraid of the Great Emperor? He was the most powerful Dao Emperor in the Netherworld.
If one could earn his protection, they could basically walk sideways there.
"I’ve thought about this long ago. It’s said that the Great Emperor of the Netherworld loves to eat humans, especially the Human Race. We happen to have so souls from the Blue Star here. Pack them as gifts and send them over; the Great Emperor will surely like them." The Shadow Emperor said with a cold smile.
Presumably, the Great Emperor has never tasted Blue Star souls before. His gift was unique, incomparable to others.
Hearing this, the eyes of several Yamas lit up, collectively agreeing that the Shadow Emperor’s suggestion was excellent. After all, these Blue Star souls were just taking up space here; why not turn them into a gift.
"From now on, those Blue Star souls should not undergo any punishnt or honing, allowing their souls to beco stronger. The Great Emperor doesn’t like eating scrawny souls. If we send any, it should be the best." The Shadow Emperor said firmly.
The souls of those Blue Star people had almost been tornted to extinction during this ti, their soul power dwindling. If they were sent like that, the Great Emperor might get angry, thinking he was being mocked, and destroy the Underworld in his fury. That would be a disaster.
Since choosing to send them, only the best should be offered. Pleasing the Great Emperor of the Netherworld would elevate the Underworld’s status trendously.
Several Yamas nodded heavily, speaking in unison: "Yes."
...
Underworld, Eighteenth Dungeon.
"Get in, Lord Yama will co to see you all later. Keep quiet, you hear?" a Ghost with a bull’s head and a human body shouted coldly, holding two souls and hurling them into the dungeon before closing and locking the door, then solemnly guarding the entrance, staying alert.
In the cell behind, there were actually hundreds of souls, each extrely emaciated, nearly extinct with their dim, ghostly-blue Soul Bodies!
If Chen Lan were here, he would undoubtedly recognize these souls; among them were Luo Tao, Yan Yu, Gu Ying, Daoist Qingfeng, Li Long, Zhu Gu, Peng Dahai, and many others, all from the Xiao Yao sect!
But now, only a few hundred remained. When the Xiao Yao sect was captured, there were over ten thousand souls. Now, only this many are left!
"They suddenly don’t want us working anymore. Why do you think that is?"
