The Ninth Lady is a rebellious person.

Chapter 623 Time is running out, cut into demonic form

Fengya landed in the town and looked at the deathly silence. Not even a dog barked. There was only a thick aura of death and yin energy. Some of the corpses were obviously killed by each other. Some women and children had not yet lost their fear before they died by the knife. And in the air, there was a lingering aura that he found extremely disgusting.

He walked through the town like a demon, and saw a man with a delicate face whose life essence had been drained. He reached out and carefully sensed him, his expression growing increasingly disgusted.

Fengya forcibly opened the Gate of Hell, pushing all the wronged souls in the town inside. The Black and White Impermanence came out to greet him, and seeing this wicked star who had almost become their superior, they trembled and bowed respectfully.

"There is a demon in the mortal realm who has become possessed and is causing chaos, attempting to collapse the Heavenly Way. The dead cannot enter the River of Oblivion, and their new souls wander the mortal realm, only intensifying the resentment of the dead. Your Netherworld cannot stand idly by. Send out your underworld officials to guide the souls to the Yellow Springs." Fengya calmly looked at the two ghosts and instructed, "Otherwise, this demon will grow stronger by absorbing the resentment of the dead, turning the mortal realm into a demonic land. At that time, even the Netherworld will not be spared."

What is the cycle of life and death? There is life and there is death. The balance of the cycle is the way of the balance of the Qi of heaven and earth. If there is only death and no life, where will those dead souls be reincarnated? If they cannot be reincarnated, what is the meaning of the underworld?
The Black and White Impermanence hurriedly said, "The Emperors have already discussed this matter, but the human realm and the underworld each have their own rules, and we cannot forcibly interfere in human affairs. Lord Feng should understand this rule."

"I didn't ask you to interfere. It's just that when someone dies, you have to collect their soul. Isn't that your job? It's just about ferrying the souls of the dead."

Seeing the murderous aura emanating from him, Hei Bai Wu Jian immediately bowed down: "I will obey Lord Feng's orders."

Fengya vanished in a flash.

Bai Wuchang looked at his partner and said, "Who angered him that he's taking it out on us?"

Black Impermanence snorted: "Who else could it be but the one who defied the will of Heaven to snatch back and then brought in to be cared for for two years? Who else has such ability?"

Bai Wuchang remained silent, gazing at the deathly stillness and the dense yin energy, and sighed: "Whether the calamity in the human world can be quelled depends entirely on the methods and courage of that person."

Black Impermanence didn't reply. His dark face was expressionless, except for a hint of worry in his eyes.

Good and evil cannot coexist. As Fengya said, if good cannot prevail, evil will grow stronger and the underworld will also be implicated and collapse.

What a hassle!

Fengya kept following Tantai Wuji's aura. It has to be said that his physical body was very useful. Right now, he could still use it to locate Tantai Wuji and keep hunting down that stray dog.

This excitement reached its peak when it saw people, corrupted by demonic energy, amplifying their selfish and sinister desires, causing Da Dan to become increasingly chaotic for their own selfish purposes.

Tantai Wuji was both annoyed and furious at Fengya's relentless pursuit. His hunt would keep him busy, and even if he had a source of power, he would have no time to solidify the techniques of the Demonic Codex and make his core essence condense. He would be at a disadvantage.

Not to mention, besides Fengya, there are other righteous cultivators.

He knew that some cultivators were hiding in the deep mountains to cultivate, but he did not know that they, who were usually so self-centered, would come out in droves because of this. When he appeared, they would pounce on him like dogs that had caught a whiff of something, trying to surround and tear him apart.

Kong Jin, however, was quite pleased and kept mocking Tantai Wuji: "Now you understand the suffering I used to endure, don't you?"

That's how he was besieged and killed by the righteous path back then. It was Tantai Wuji who advocated it, and now he deserves to suffer the consequences!

Tantai Wuji was already irritable, and this sarcasm only made him angrier. He said, "Shut up. If I'm not well, how will you be? We're in the same boat."

Kong Jin thought this was truly unlucky, but unfortunately, his current soul wasn't strong enough to devour him. So he said, "It's precisely because we're in the same boat that I need to remind you not to drag me down with you. Cut your losses decisively. Stop coveting that other body. Trying to have one thing while wanting two is never a good thing. If you scheme too much, you'll only end up with nothing." His voice was sticky and persuasive as he said, "Let's completely sever ties. Sacrifice yourself to this body, and your soul will lose its connection with that skeleton. It won't be able to find you or control you through your physical body anymore. And our core essence will be easier to condense."

Tantai Wuji's eyes darkened, seemingly unaware of his sinister thoughts, only thinking about Fengya. That scoundrel was relentlessly pursuing him, and this shift in power was extremely detrimental to his cultivation.

That day was drawing ever closer; his days were numbered.

The only way to sever the connection with his physical body is to completely sacrifice his soul to Kong Jin's demonic bones, which have been stained by countless blood, qi, and death qi over thousands of years. At that time, the soul and bones will become one, and the power will be even stronger. The condensation of the dantian will be just around the corner.

However, in doing so, he would have no way out and would be unable to reclaim his original body or possess Lang Jiuchuan's body to ascend to the throne of the ruler through the righteous path. If he were to achieve mastery of demonic arts and become the ruler, he would only become the Demon Lord.

This is different from his plan.

Furthermore, is Kong Jin's enthusiastic advice well-intentioned? Or is he just trying to take advantage of the situation to strengthen his own remnant soul power so that he can launch a backlash, or to completely devour Kong Jin's divine soul power when Kong Jin makes the sacrifice?

That's a clever plan.

However, when Tantai Wuji saw the Blood Soul Lamp in front of him, his agitation deepened. Although it had recognized him as its master, it was still Kong Jin's natal magic weapon, and he could not unleash the full power of the lamp.

Lang Jiuchuan and his group are really something, forcing him to this point.

Isn't it just because they have more people?
A ruthless glint flashed in Tantai Wuji's blood-red eyes. He had originally wanted to leave some room for the common people, after all, even if he became the ruler, it would be difficult to gain faith in a world riddled with wounds.

Then let's completely transform this world into a demon realm.

Tantai Wuji said, "Alright, we need to find a secluded place where we can isolate our aura, otherwise if that thief catches up with us, we'll be put at a disadvantage."

He flashed and used the Blood Soul Lamp to activate the Blood Escape Void, disappearing from the spot.

In an instant, Tantai Wuji was suspended in a lake that was three zhang deep. He felt the yin energy coming from the water and the wailing of the white bones floating under his feet. He slightly curled his lips. This was originally a mass grave for ten thousand people, but it later became a lake. The white bones accumulated under this water were more than ten million.

He summoned the Blood Soul Lamp, which floated before his brow. He formed a hand seal, using the Soul Lamp to create a sea of ​​blood and a barrier around the lake. He then began to mutter strange incantations.

Kong Jin was extremely excited.

The opportunity is here.

To completely sever his ties with his former self, Tantai Wuji needs to use his soul as a guide to inform heaven and earth, thus completely cutting ties with his past self. At the same time, to whom does his soul need to be offered as a sacrifice?

Dark, resentful clouds surged in from all directions, forming a terrifying, thick, and sticky demonic barrier. Dark thunder flashed within it, as if the end of the world had arrived. Countless vengeful spirits that had lingered for years rose from the water, their dark eyes fixed on the person in the water with fanatical gazes.

As the dark lightning descended from the sky, a slight smile appeared on Tantai Wuji's lips. His divine soul burst forth from Kong Jin's skeleton and went straight to meet it.
