Traveling the Heavens in Thunderbolt

Chapter 1311: Turbulence in the Bardo
"The enemy advanced so quickly that they wiped out all the military bases in our territory in just one day. Now only the military strength of the Wall of Despair remains intact. Moreover, the Yipo Ma clan surrendered after being defeated. The enemy is coming in full force. City Lord, how can we resist them?"

Zeng Hui Zhai asked for advice from Gu Cheng Bu Wei. Although she was at odds with the King of the Universe, she was from the Bardo after all, and could not sit idly by and watch the Bardo perish.

Gu Cheng Buwei, who also wanted to kill King Zhou and replace him, had the same reason as the king's younger brother.

The disappearance of Zeus made the two put aside their differences and work together.

Gu Cheng Bu Wei replied, "The Yipo Ma clan was already dissatisfied with the dynasty. This defeat and surrender was expected. Now, in addition to the arrival of the Pibing Zeng clan's troops, the other three clans' troops are coming to support the Juejing Great Wall. Please be at ease, Hou Zhang. Once the troops of all clans are gathered, we will still be able to fight against the Yintian Dynasty."

The two mentioned that the 'Yakuma clan' was one of the five major families along with the Reikari clan, the Onishi clan, the Biheizou clan, and the Narakumin clan.

As the younger sister of the Ma family who controls spirits, Ma Jing was betrothed to Gucheng Buwei, the master of the Wall of Despair. Later, she committed suicide because she found out that her husband was having an affair, and even cursed the third party with her soul so that she would never have peace.

The city lord felt guilty about this, so Zeng Mingxia expelled himself into the evil pit, and Ma Jing's spirit would never be reincarnated.

The Ma family was disgraced and deposed, and they had an irreconcilable feud with the Pibing family. As a result, the two families fought many battles in Tiaowu Road.

However, because the Ma family was not as powerful as the Zeng family, they were defeated repeatedly in competitions, resulting in the loss of almost all of their fiefdoms to the Zeng family.

The Ma family, once one of the five largest families, is now in name only.

Although Ma also summoned his troops to fight this time, after being defeated, he surrendered to the Yintian Dynasty very straightforwardly.

Of the remaining four major families, the Naraku Mian clan, as an in-law of the dynasty, was naturally listed as the first round of attack targets just like the Zeng clan after the fall of the royal city.

There was no time to react, and they were crushed by the powerful army of the Yintian Dynasty. As Concubine Mian·Yu Jiaonu was captured in the battle of the royal city, only Si Quan·Yu Caihen, who was escorting Zeng Hui Di, escaped.

As the patriarch of the Lingshou Duan clan, Duan Junheng ignored the exile order and immediately left the Great Wall upon learning the fall of the royal city. He summoned the troops that originally belonged to the Duan clan and returned to defend the Juejing Great Wall. The result is still unknown.

Although the Duan family was once the leader of the five major spirit-controlling families in the bardo world, they were affected by the exile of their head, Duan Junheng, and their strength is no longer as strong as before.

As for the last ghost master Ji family, its head Ji Zhong is very powerful and has been missing for a long time. Moreover, his family is not prosperous and he only seeks honor and glory, but his strength is not even as good as that of the Duan family.

Of the five great spirit-controlling families in the bardo world that were once glorious, the Ma family has surrendered to the enemy, the Zeng and Mian families have been ruined, the Duan family has declined, and the Ji family is obscured.

The Yintian Dynasty was able to defeat the fighting power of the Bardo Realm so quickly thanks to the ambitious King of the Universe who expanded outward in order to unify the power of the Bardo Realm and used all means to weaken the five major families.

When the dynasty attacked, the five major families, whose strength had been weakened, were unable to organize an effective resistance.

King Zhou's various schemes were all for the benefit of the Yintian Dynasty.

"Master Spirit Hunter, what happened? Why are you and Black Nineteen covered in blood?"

At this moment, a voice of hatred came from outside.

When Zeng Hui Zhai and Gu Cheng Buwei in the inner hall heard this, their hearts sank.

Then Duan Junheng came with blood all over his body and Hei Shijiu on his back.

Gu Cheng Buwei asked hurriedly: "Lingshou, what happened? You were not going to gather the troops, did something unexpected happen on the way?"

Duan Junheng smiled bitterly and said, "Nineteen and I gathered the Duan army. On the way back, we encountered the vanguard led by Guihuang Hell Bian. After a fierce battle, Nineteen was seriously injured by Guihuang Hell Bian, and the ghost pupils of both eyes were dug out by her. If I hadn't used spiritual magic to escape, I'm afraid both my father and I would have died at the hands of Hell Bian.

Zeng Hui Zhai understood that it was useless to blame him now, so he asked with concern, "How is Black Nineteen doing?" "Thank you for your concern, Nineteen's injury has been stabilized by me." At this point, Duan Junheng couldn't help but think of the deal he had made with Xu Fengnian, and thought to himself, "Xu Fengnian, did you expect Nineteen's Ghost Pupil to be taken away when we made the deal that day? So, did you give me the Soul-Transforming Orb?"

Just as the hall was filled with gloom, the familiar voice of the King of Zeus was heard.

"It seems that without me in charge, the entire bardo world will be in chaos. Hahahaha..."

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw King Zhou coming with Ji Zhong.

"In this case, for the sake of all of you, I have no choice but to take over the power again."

Zeng Huidi and Gu Cheng Buwei had no intention of taking the King of Zhou's words seriously.

Zeng Hui Zhai even said: "It turned out that it was the Ghost Master who rescued the king that day. Since the king has returned safely, there is no need for me to

As he spoke, Zeng Hui Zhai came down from the main seat.

"Very good, very good. You are indeed my beloved wife." King Zhou took over the power.

Gu Cheng Buwei watched all this quietly without making any move.

Because he knew that the bardo realm had reached a point of life and death, and there was no room for grudges any longer.

"This time, not only have my injuries healed completely, but the magic in my body has also been lifted. Now is the time to destroy the Yintian Dynasty and boost the power of our Underworld."

The magic that King Zhou mentioned involves a strange man who lives in seclusion in the Nili Forest Prison, Taiyu Jinghong Yiliuyi.

After defeating the Outer Seven Masters with his friend Yi Qixing, Ichiruyi, one of the Seven Masters of Martial Arts, was entrusted by his chess friend, the Outer Seven Master, Hibuki Yan, with his last words.
He left the Screaming Abyss with Ghost Eye and the Three Prophecies, and came to the Bardo through the gap in the infinite space. He lived in seclusion in the Nirvana Prison and met the ghost master Ji Zhong.

During the time in the bardo, Yi Liuyi noticed the ambition of King Zhou, and after finding an opportunity to defeat him, he cast a spell of undercurrent transfer on him.

This will prevent the King of the Universe from resorting to violence and thus make him give up his plan to invade the Land of Bitterness.

After rescuing King Zhou from the royal city, Ghost Master Ji Zhong went straight to the place where Yi Liuyi lived in seclusion, hoping that Yi Liuyi would remove the magic from King Zhou for his sake.

After meeting Zhou Wang and Ji Zhong, Yi Liuyi learned about the current situation in the bardo from them.

After getting the promise from King of the Universe that he would not attack the Realm of Bitterness during his lifetime, he took action to remove the magic from his body.

This led to the high-spirited return of King Zhou in the hall of the Great Wall of Despair.

The first thing King Zhou did when he regained power was to pardon the exiles in the Great Wall. "... Junheng, I pardon you. Recently, I have been feeling more and more short of useful people around me. To deal with the aggressive Yintian Dynasty, the Underworld must work together."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your pardon." Although King Zhou had returned in his prime, Duan Junheng was not happy at all.

"Pass the order down. I will personally lead all the troops in the border town to go to war. Twist off Huai Pomeng's head and use it as a wine jug. Hahahaha..."

The King of the Universe officially issued a counterattack strategy, requiring the remaining troops in the Bardo to attack on all fronts.
