I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

A bolt of lightning struck him heavily. As the King of Hell, such damage was naturally not enough to kill him, but Lin Yi never used just one move.

Before he could finish one move, the next one was already here.

Fighting Lin Yi, unless he falls down, the next move will definitely be an even more dangerous killing move.

Just as Yama was congratulating himself on his superior magical power, which saved him from being struck by lightning, he was beheaded by a massive blood-red sword in the next second.

"How dare you kill me!"

Even though Yama's head had fallen to the ground, he was still not completely dead.

"Why not?"

"I am the King of Hell, appointed by the Heavenly Emperor. Aren't you afraid of retribution?"

"Of course I'm not afraid. If you bunch of lazy, incompetent officials aren't afraid of retribution, why would I be?"

Lin Yi activated the Demon-Slaying Sword, and its malevolent aura quickly enveloped Yama. The sword was bloodthirsty, and its malevolent aura devoured souls. No matter how powerful you are, you can never escape the physical body and soul.

Before long, Yama's soul was also completely obliterated by the bloodthirsty aura.

King Yama, the head of the Ten Kings of Hell, died in the Abyss of Exile.

At the very moment of his death, heaven and earth trembled, and the three realms were thrown into turmoil. Dark clouds covered all parts of the human world.

Blood rained down throughout the underworld.

This is what is meant by the death of a sage, which shocked heaven and earth and moved even the spirits.

A sage is not just a saint, but refers to a person who has reached a certain status or position.

Clearly, Yama meets this condition.

At this moment, throughout the Three Realms, regardless of whether they were immortals or mortals, all those with cultivation sensed that something momentous had happened between heaven and earth.

The higher one's level of understanding, the more insights one gains.

Other Yama Kings, who are also Yin Gods, felt it even more clearly.

They knew that one of the Kings of Hell had died.

Upon realizing this, all the Yama Kings were horrified.

Lin Yi also realized that the situation was not good, but he had not left yet.

He merely plundered Yama's relics, then went into hiding and began to integrate Yama's authority.

It takes 500,000 years of cultivation to merge with the power of Yama, but now Lin Yi himself can no longer absorb cultivation, so these are just numbers.

Taking advantage of the consolidation of power, Lin Yi also seized the time to begin examining the relics of Yama, the King of Hell.

He and Zero One hid underwater in the Abyss of Exile, using its extremely dark and malevolent waters for cover.

Given his control over the power of Yama, hiding himself wouldn't be difficult.

However, if there is anything unusual among Yama's relics, it will inevitably be identified by someone.

Lin Yi himself had used this tactic before, so of course he had to be wary of it.

As the King of Hell in the first court and the first gatekeeper of the underworld, Yama is naturally the richest and most powerful person in the underworld.

However, most of his treasures were stored in the treasury of the Yama Palace, and he only had some divine artifacts on his person.

But Lin Yi didn't really care for his clothes and weapons.

You can keep it as a gift or sell it later.

The premise is that someone is willing to buy it.

Aside from the treasures that Yama collected elsewhere, the rest are his divine artifacts.

These three artifacts are truly powerful. One is the Three Lives Stone, which allows one to see a person's three lifetimes and their good and evil deeds.

This is one of the effects; another effect is to sever the karma of three lifetimes, leaving only one life.

This is because after a living being enters the cycle of reincarnation, it becomes tainted with other soul fragments. These fragments quickly and completely merge with the soul, and although they are not visible on the outside, they are ultimately not the same divine soul.

People with such a soul are destined to have limited growth potential.

But the Three Lives Stone can wash away the fragments of the soul, making it pure again.

It's a useful auxiliary attack, but not very useful. I'll put it away and play it later.

The second magical artifact is the Book of Life and Death. It is very powerful, and as the legend says, the names written in the Book of Life and Death can determine a person's life or death.

However, the use of the Book of Life and Death must be in accordance with the law. Increasing or decreasing one's lifespan must be done in accordance with the law.

This is the concept of rewarding good and punishing evil.

For Lin Yi, the Book of Life and Death doesn't seem to have much effect, because once he's entered the Immortal Register, he's no longer under its control. Lin Yi's enemies are now mostly immortals and gods.

He could blow someone to death with a single breath if they hadn't reached the level of an immortal or god, so he wouldn't need the Book of Life and Death.

It's another useless item, but we can still keep it.

The last magical artifact is the Yama's Decree.

Only those who possess this token are the true King Yama.

He can command the hidden gods of the Yama Palace, and none under the jurisdiction of the Yama Palace dare to disobey him.

In addition, it can also amplify the effects of the laws and judgments and divine punishments controlled by Lin Yi.

This is the king's privilege.

When Lin Yi fully integrated with the power of Yama, he learned of one of the wonderful uses of the Yama Decree: to confer titles upon the Yin Gods.

Through the Yama Decree, he can bestow the authority he controls upon others.

In short, Lin Yi has completely usurped the throne. Now, he is the real King of Hell, and from now on, he will appoint all the underworld gods and ghost generals in the Yama Palace.

Of course, this authority is still useless; he can't bestow divine titles in the underworld right now!

However, it's better to have these powers than none at all, especially since his other abilities have been enhanced, which can be considered a gain.

After checking and confirming that there was nothing wrong with what Yama had left behind, he quickly pulled Zero One to hide in the water.

Before long, a large group of Yin spirits arrived at this place.

When Yama, the King of Hell, died, they sensed it and naturally knew where he died.

When the ghosts and spirits of the underworld arrived at this place, they were all terrified.

It's not scary that Yama died in the Abyss of Exile; what's scary is that there aren't many signs of battle in the Abyss of Exile.

What does this mean?

The one who killed Yama did so swiftly and quickly, without Yama even being able to mount an effective resistance.

Only in this way will the Abyss of Exile leave few traces of battle.

Who is Yama, the King of Hell?

That's the head of the Ten Kings of Hell. Regardless of his character, his strength is definitely not to be underestimated.

If that person could kill Yama so decisively, wouldn't that mean he also had the same ability to kill them instantly?

For a moment, everyone who was still alive, including the King of Hell, turned pale with fear.

Before long, all the Ghost Emperors except the Central Ghost Emperor arrived here.

The death of a Yama King is a momentous event in the underworld, and even the heavens will take notice.

If not handled properly, they may all be punished.

"I sensed the power of Yama's authority; he must have made a move, but it was annihilated by an aura of destruction."

The Eastern Ghost Emperor carefully sensed the power, but only detected two kinds of power. One was the power of Yama, and the other was a power with an aura of destruction and slaughter.

So it seems that Yama did not fail to take action, but rather that after he did, he was utterly defeated.

For a moment, even the Four Ghost Emperors looked solemn.

They had almost all identified the murderer. Nothing major had ever happened in the underworld until recently, when someone who shouldn't have been there broke in. The monk was still imprisoned, but Lin Yi had escaped.

The most likely person to kill Yama is Lin Yi.

They were simply afraid that if they encountered Lin Yi, who possessed such formidable strength, they might not be able to defeat him.

The Four Ghost Emperors were naturally far stronger than Yama, but they dared not say that they could instantly suppress Yama and then kill him cleanly.

“There used to be a lot of traces of ghost soldiers here; they might know something.”

The Eastern Ghost Emperor shared what he had perceived. At this moment, with a formidable enemy at hand, the four Ghost Emperors, even though they were not on the same side, had no choice but to cooperate.

After all, the four Ghost Emperors fighting each other was no different from playing house, but this outsider was really here to kill people.

The Northern Ghost Emperor nodded and began to perform the Great Teleportation Technique.

Following the lingering scents, he quickly located the ghostly soldiers and messengers that Lin Yi had released.

"arrest!"

At a single command, the ghostly soldiers who had already gone far away simultaneously felt the restraint of a terrifying force, and the next second, they were dragged back to the Abyss of Exile from thousands of miles away.

Even Lin Yi, hiding in the shadows, couldn't help but marvel at the Ghost Emperor's powerful methods.

He doesn't have that kind of supernatural power.

The Western Ghost Emperor had the most approachable appearance. He asked, "Could you tell me what happened here?"

These poor ghost soldiers and messengers, who had been diligent and conscientious their whole lives and had never made any mistakes, were first scared to death by Lin Yi and released, but were then caught again.

Before me stood the four Ghost Emperors and the nine Yama Kings.

What merit do they have to witness such a scene?

Many spirits would never see a ghost emperor in their entire lives, but now they've seen four of them all at once.

The little devils naturally confessed everything quickly, not daring to keep any secrets. Trying to outsmart the Ghost Emperor was tantamount to courting death.

Lin Yi wasn't surprised. He had originally sent these people out to complain, but they all seemed to be in sync, and none of them complained; they all ran away.

It is evident that even those who struggle at the bottom have their own wisdom for survival.

The Western Ghost Emperor got the information he wanted, and of course, he didn't make things difficult for these ghost messengers.

"Now the situation is clear. King Yama was afraid of Lin Yi, so he specially sent Yin Gods to patrol the Abyss of Exile. Unexpectedly, Lin Yi came to the Abyss of Exile and assassinated many Yin Generals."
