"How's the matter I asked you to inquire about going?" The Skeleton God sat in his study, with two cultivators standing in front of him. A hint of impatience crossed his face.

The two cultivators stood there trembling with fear. Then one of them spoke up: "Reporting to the master, we have learned that the person called 'Fazhen' lives in the Black Sea. He has also formed a small alliance with some other people who also live in the Black Sea. This small alliance is not very strong, but all of them live in the Black Sea and rarely leave. However, these people have been making some moves recently. They are selling something called 'Dungeon Flower,' which costs 100,000 spirit stones each. However, all those selling Dungeon Flowers are members of that small alliance. The person called 'Fazhen' has not appeared."

"What is the underground palace flower?"

"Reporting to the Lord, we haven't found out about that yet. We've only heard that it's very popular among the monks who live in the Black Sea."

"Go and find someone to help us sell a 'Dungeon Flower' to see what it is. Also, see if we can bring people from their alliance here."

"Yes, my lord."

The Skeleton God waved to the two men, and they left his room. Once they were out, they breathed a sigh of relief. They were genuinely afraid of being punished by the Skeleton God, but thankfully, that didn't happen.

A day later, one of the cultivators, carrying a seed of the underground palace flower, came to the Skeleton God's study. The Skeleton God looked at the cultivator and asked, "How is it?"

The man quickly replied, "My lord, the underground palace flower has been purchased. It is something that can be activated with spiritual energy to form a space, like a room that can be carried with you."

Upon hearing this, the Skeleton God was taken aback at first, but then became curious. He looked at the man and said, "Really? This is quite interesting. Let me see it."

The man quickly replied, "My lord, the study is too small to accommodate everyone."

The Skeleton God nodded and followed the man outside. Once outside, the man took out the seeds of the underground palace flower and threw them on the ground. The next moment, a small flower sprouted from the seed, and then there was no further reaction.

However, the Skeleton God sensed that an additional space had appeared underground. This was his divine kingdom, and he was aware of any movement there. Therefore, he clearly sensed the presence of this additional space underground.

He immediately arrived above the underground palace flower, then frowned and asked, "How do I get in?"

The man quickly replied, "Because I activated the underground palace flower, I can take you in. If you activated the underground palace flower, you can enter directly with just a thought. Of course, you cannot stray too far from the underground palace flower; you must be above it."

The Skeleton God nodded and said, "Alright, take me in." The man responded and led the Skeleton God directly into the space inside the underground palace.

After entering this space, the Skeleton God looked around. It was indeed not large, but for those who had just arrived in the God Realm and did not yet have their own divine kingdom, this place was undoubtedly paradise.

Standing in the living room of the 'Underground Palace Flower', the Skeleton God couldn't help but feel a little dazed, remembering the situation when he first ascended to the God Realm. At that time, he had nothing, and even his clothes were made of spiritual energy. Thinking back to that time, it was really miserable. But now he has everything, and everything is different.

The Skeleton God let out a long breath, then murmured, "It's a good deal." The cultivator beside him remained silent, just standing quietly. The Skeleton God didn't speak for a while, until the time it takes to drink a cup of tea passed, before finally saying, "Send someone to send a message to that magic array, just tell it that I want to see him, and I guarantee his safety."

The cultivator responded, but he didn't say anything about Zhao Hai not daring to come. He was just a subordinate of the Skeleton God, and he did whatever the Skeleton God told him to do. He was a tool, a tool without his own thoughts.

"You mean, someone sent you a message saying that the Skeleton God wants to see me? And he guaranteed my safety?"

“Yes, you’re going to see the Skeleton God, right? He’s a creator god-level expert. If you go to see him, you might really run into trouble,” Feng Ling said. Feng Ling had received a letter today from a god he knew, and that was the message he was receiving. He couldn’t make the decision himself because he knew very well that this matter had to be decided by Zhao Hai himself; he couldn’t make the decision for Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai suddenly smiled slightly and said, "Alright, I'll go see this Skeleton God. A master like him wouldn't lie to me, would he?"

"It's better to be careful. He only said he could guarantee your safety, but he didn't write it down. Such a promise doesn't count." Feng Ling was getting anxious. He was worried that something might happen to Zhao Hai. If something happened to Zhao Hai, then his income would be gone.

Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I can guarantee I'll come back if I dare to go. You don't need to worry."

After saying that, Zhao Hai stood up and said, "I'll go see him now and see what he's up to."

Feng Ling also stood up and looked at Zhao Hai, saying, "Why don't I go with you?" Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "No need, you go ahead with your business, I'll be right back." With that, the two walked out of the Sky-Supporting Tree. Feng Ling clasped his hands in a fist salute to Zhao Hai, who returned the salute. Then Feng Ling left directly. After watching him leave, Zhao Hai flew straight towards the market.

Zhao Hai quickly found the Skull God's divine kingdom, which was the skeleton. The closer he got to the skeleton, the more he felt its power. At first, he thought that the skeleton was just something the Skull God had specially crafted in that shape, and not a real skeleton. But when he got closer, he realized that the skeleton was actually a real skeleton. This surprised Zhao Hai. The skeleton was quite large, and it was even humanoid. He really didn't know where the Skull God had obtained this skeleton.

When Zhao Hai reached the skeleton, a cultivator suddenly appeared in front of him. He looked at Zhao Hai, then bowed and asked, "Are you Master of the Magic Array?"

Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said, "That's right."

“Please come with me, my lord is waiting for you.”

Zhao Hai responded and then followed the cultivator toward the skeleton. When they were about a hundred meters away from the skeleton, Zhao Hai felt a blur before his eyes, and then he found himself in a space. This space was very large and full of plants. Most importantly, none of these plants were superfluous; they were all grains, medicinal herbs, and vegetables. Many cultivators were working there.

There are some houses around, all of them small buildings, each about ten stories high, divided into individual rooms, and they all look quite nice.

Soon, Zhao Hai and his group arrived at the innermost building. This building was quite special; it was a type of building with green tiles and red walls, and it looked very beautiful.

Most importantly, the building's shape is quite peculiar; it looks like a skull wearing a crown.

Zhao Hai followed the cultivator to the front of the building, where the two landed at the main gate, which, from a distance, looked like the mouth of a skull.

Once inside the building, the two could see a passageway leading directly to the top floor; there were no stairs, and they didn't need them at all.

The man led Zhao Hai directly to the top floor, where there was a door. Apart from the door, there were walls all around. The man stepped forward and gently knocked on the door. A deep voice came from inside and said, "Come in." The man then pushed the door open and went in. A moment later, he came out, bowed to Zhao Hai, and said, "My lord invites you in, sir."

Zhao Hai smiled slightly and then said, "Thank you for your trouble." He then entered the room.

It was clearly a study, simply furnished. A man sat behind a desk, watching him. Zhao Hai looked back at the man; he was very thin, and perhaps frightening to ordinary people. But Zhao Hai was used to all sorts of people, so he wasn't afraid at all. Instead, he clasped his hands in greeting and said, "Greetings, Your Excellency." Zhao Hai knew that the man must be the God of Skeletons, and he still maintained his respect for him.

The Skull God nodded, then raised his chin and pointed to the chair opposite the desk, saying, "Sit down."

Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said, "Thank you, sir." Then he sat down.

After Zhao Hai sat down, the Skeleton God spoke, "You should know why I called you here, right?"

Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Is it because of the castle? I'm sorry, sir, I really didn't know this matter was related to you. The castle asked me to help it build a magic array, so I went."

The Skeleton God looked at Zhao Hai and said, "You ruined my plans." As he spoke, he kept staring at Zhao Hai, his eyes flashing with what seemed like ghostly fire, and he looked extremely angry.

However, Zhao Hai did not sense any murderous intent from him. Zhao Hai said, "I'm sorry, sir."

The Skeleton God looked at Zhao Hai and said, "I originally wanted to capture you and bring you to my divine kingdom, and then make you do hard labor for me. However, I saw that underground palace flower, which reminded me of when I first came to the divine realm, so I decided to let you go."

Zhao Hai was taken aback when he heard this, and then he said, "Thank you, sir."

The Skeleton God looked at Zhao Hai and said, "You must have just ascended to the God Realm not long ago, right? Your aura doesn't seem very stable yet, and you haven't adapted to the spiritual energy concentration here in the God Realm. Why did you come to the Black Sea?"

Zhao Hai gave a wry smile and said, "I'm not afraid of being laughed at, sir. I came here because I offended someone and was being hunted down. When I was in the lower realm, someone was proselytizing on our level, and we destroyed his temple and killed all his followers. I didn't expect that after arriving in the upper realm, those gods would come knocking on our door. I only escaped to the Black Sea because I discovered their movements in advance; otherwise, I'm afraid I would be dead by now." (End of Chapter)
