Full-Time Magister: Dark Lord

347. See the Old King.

"Cao Le?"

"Why are you here? What happened?" Han Ji asked, somewhat puzzled, looking at Cao Le who had arrived overnight.

"Yes, there are indeed some things."

Cao Le nodded and then said, "Where is the Ancient King's Abyss of Evil? Tell me."

"???"

Han Ji was dumbfounded and looked at Cao Le with some confusion.

It seems like nothing has happened in Sha Yuan recently, right?

So, what is Cao Le asking about Sha Yuan now?

"Has something happened?" Han Ji asked again.

"Ah."

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Give me the place of Sha Yuan, that's enough."

"wait."

Han Ji left for a while, and soon returned with a thick notebook. A scholar, seemingly from the Department of Space, joined him and explained things to Han Ji, who listened attentively.

After understanding the situation, Han Ji looked at the map and said, "The next migration will happen tomorrow at sunset, right here..."

"Okay, I'm leaving."

"You have to tell me what happened..." Han Ji asked, sounding somewhat helpless.

"The Black Vatican and Cardinal Leng Jue have contacted the Egyptian Undead Empire, wanting to show off their power in China. I'm going to find the Ancient King to send them away."

Cao Le responded as if it were a trivial matter, but Han Ji was completely stunned when he found out...

Egypt?

The Empire of the Dead?

The Black Vatican!!?

Hearing what Cao Le said, Han Ji was shocked, and the people next to him were completely dumbfounded!

However, before Han Ji could ask anything, Cao Le had already left...

...

After leaving the ancient capital, he rushed towards the Abyss of Fiends at full speed.

Upon arriving at the place that the Abyss of Evil was about to reach, the overwhelming and churning evil energy was like the descent of a demon king. No normal person would dare to step even half a step deeper into it.

There were no undead near the Abyss of Fiends. Undead no longer easily appeared on the land of the living. Cao Le's tiny figure gradually disappeared into the entrance of this dark and sunless hell furnace, as if he had escaped into another mysterious and terrifying world!

Standing to the side, looking down, all I could see were corpses filled with resentment, rage, hunger, hatred, and greed. They were tangled together as the Abyss of Evil slowly rotated, forming an endless ocean of suffering.

He had only heard of the terrifying nature of the Abyss of Fiends, but had never witnessed it firsthand; this was his first time.

"Yu Jin, are you sure I'll be alright if I jump in here?"

Although Yu Jin had previously stated that nothing would happen to him after he came here.

However, even after arriving here, he still felt somewhat uneasy...

This place is honestly terrifying.

"Rest assured, my lord, with the protection of this humble general and all the generals, we will certainly not allow you to be hindered in the slightest," Yu Jin's voice came from the spiritual world.

After thinking for a moment, Cao Le jumped down and went in.

Contrary to Cao Le's expectations, he didn't actually encounter any rejection or resentment...

It is certain that this Abyss of Evil is an overlapping space.

The first level of space must be the abyss where ghosts and demons fly like clouds and mad corpses are piled up like mountains. If most living things fall into it, they will be torn to pieces and become part of it.

However, due to the protection of the undead generals, he did not suffer any harm... Valley

"I really don't want to come back to this place..."

Ultimately, he was a living person, not a dead one, and he was quite resistant to this place.

After pausing for a moment, Cao Le continued walking forward towards the White Tomb Palace. The lonely tomb, which had stood for thousands of years, remained unchanged and still gave Cao Le a suffocating chill.

Fortunately, he was not given a chance to go too far, and the Nine Netherworld Queen he had seen before appeared in front of him.

Even after the Nine Netherworlds were shrouded in darkness, she still maintained an extremely alluring appearance and seemed to show no sign of hatred whatsoever.

"The king asked me to ask you, what brings you here?"

"Find him."

“The king does not wish to see you. If that is all, you may leave,” Jiuyouhou added.

"But I'm determined to see him. Are you going to fight me?"

Jiuyou smiled and continued, "Back then, you weren't affected by me, let alone now. How could I be so presumptuous?"

"Rumble..."

As Jiuyou finished speaking, a massive figure appeared behind her.

This figure was none other than the corpse of the mountain peak.

"Aww~~~~~"

The corpse of the mountain peak roared as soon as it appeared.

However, Cao Le was, to be honest, somewhat flustered.

During his battle with Cao Le, he was completely overwhelmed by Cao Le. Of course, Cao Le's actual strength wasn't enough to be suppressed by the Mountain Corpse, but Cao Le's hidden power was extremely formidable.

“In the entire Abyss of Fiends, apart from your king, there is truly no one who can rival me,” Cao Le said, looking at the mountain corpse and the Nine Netherworld before him.

"Awooo!!!"

The corpse of the mountain roared in dissatisfaction, even appearing eager to pounce.

"That's enough, let him in."

Just then, a sound came from inside the tomb.

The loud noise made Cao Le's ears tremble...

The corpse of the mountain peak then disappeared from this place.

Then Jiuyou led Cao Le inside.

Following Jiuyou, we crossed the Bridge of Nine Deaths and One Life, arriving directly at the Crimson Altar and then the Crimson Throne...

On the crimson throne sat a black helmet, empty inside, yet it maintained a posture that was hard to distinguish between contemplation and slumber, like a sculpture, but with an imposing aura as vast as Mount Tai!

The person before him was probably the first emperor-level powerhouse Cao Le had ever encountered.

"Are you Zhan Kong or the Ancient King?" Cao Le suppressed the trembling in his heart and asked.

"You are not my descendant, so what brings you here?" The voice was deep and resonant, carrying the original tone of Zhan Kong. Although the black armor was empty, a pair of eyes shone brightly.

Seeing that he didn't answer his question, Cao Le pursed his lips and continued, "Whether you are the head instructor or the old king, there is something I need your help with right now."

"The affairs of the living are none of my business. You can leave."

"This time, it's not about the living."

Cao Le looked at the other person and, seeing that he didn't intend to send him away, continued, "The ones who have come to China to cause trouble are the undead empire from Egypt."

"What does this have to do with me?" the old king asked.

"As an ancient king, you know better than anyone how the land of China came to be, right? Do you really want your territory to be wantonly trampled upon while you are awakening...? As Zhan Kong, as a soldier, can you hide here and ignore the invasion of foreign enemies?"

After Cao Le finished speaking, the space fell into silence...

...

348. Those who invade my territory shall die!

"Are you trying to provoke me?" The ancient king remained silent for a moment before speaking.

"No, I just need your help."

Cao Le thought for a moment and then said, "If the sea monsters hadn't been so restless and unable to restrain themselves, I wouldn't have come looking for you."

"Oh?"

The old king paused, then continued, "How did you know that the sirens were stirring?"

"It's just a special ability, but sometimes, even if you know something, you only realize it when the situation actually happens, and even if you know it, you can't solve it at all," Cao Le sighed.

"Then we must become stronger."

"I also wonder, if becoming stronger were so easy, would humanity still be able to survive in the cracks?"

"While I was alive, no demon dared to set foot in China..."

Before the old king could continue, Cao Le interrupted, "I know your glorious achievements, and every Chinese son should know them. But right now, past victories are not enough to quell the invading enemy..."

"presumptuous!"

The ancient king's face slowly emerged from the empty helmet. It was Zhan Kong's face, but its skin was gray and transparent, revealing the dense, crisscrossing black veins on its face.

Looking at the ancient king, Cao Le not only did not lower his head, but instead met his gaze.

A moment later... his face disappeared into the empty helmet again, leaving only a pair of eyes that were indifferent to everything.

Gradually, his eyes disappeared as well, leaving only a black helmet on the crimson throne, lifeless yet majestic as a mountain!

"Am I wrong?" Cao Le stared at the armor in front of him.

"You're right..." After a long while, the old king's voice finally rang out.

"Would you be willing to lend a helping hand?"

“The other side hasn’t shown themselves yet, so there’s no rush,” the old king added.
