Chapter 598: Chapter 274 Six Paths of Reincarnation_2

The Fire and Earth Judges strained with all their might and managed to drag half of Zhong Kui’s body from the mortal world into the underworld.

Zhong Kui let out a roar of anger, suddenly exerted his strength, and incredibly dragged the two Judges toward him instead.

Each of the two Judges roared with fury. The hells they presided over thunderously emerged, with Black Pot still running madly forward, while Chen Shi looked past the Judges, his eyes widening in shock.

What he saw was a terrifying vision of hell taking form within boundless space, with countless souls of living beings struggling and sinking in its depths!

The ghostly domain of hell was expanding outward, increasing its area of influence!

Black Pot was running so fast that even the two layers of hell couldn’t catch up with it.

Chen Shi didn’t have enough time to make out what kind of hell it was before Black Pot had already escaped thousands of miles away.

He looked up just in time to see Zhong Kui pulling the Earth Judge towards him, opening his mouth wide, ready to stuff the Earth Judge inside!

The Earth Judge’s long whip was being slurped up by him like noodles, with most of it gone and only a small portion still coiled around the Earth Judge’s arm, thick as a mountain peak. The Earth Judge braced with his hands against Zhong Kui’s upper jaw and his legs against the lower jaw, struggling to prevent himself from being eaten.

"How can we win against such strength?" the crowd felt some despair at this scene.

In the distance, the ground shook, and yin energy billowed as more ghost gods from the underworld surged forth, throwing themselves at Zhong Kui in the sky.

Black Pot ran faster and faster, and the magnificent scene became increasingly blurred.

"Black Pot, there’s no need to be so desperate!" Chen Shi shouted loudly, "You can slow down now!"

Black Pot gradually slowed down, and everyone on its back breathed a sigh of relief; Granny Sha relaxed, her injuries flaring up, and she quickly stabilized her condition, chuckling bitterly, "This time we’ve been outplayed, tricked by the boat girl and her daughter! Once my wounds heal, I definitely must get even!"

Hu Xiaoliang said, "How will we get even? Even if our injuries mend, we’re no match for Zhong Kui."

Granny Sha replied, "When I say get even, I don’t mean fight Zhong Kui, of course, it’s about giving the boat girl and her daughter a good thrashing!"

Zhuge Jian steadied his breathing when suddenly he exclaimed in shock, "Elder Green Sheep has died!"

Chen Shi was startled and quickly went to check, only to find that Green Sheep had indeed become rigid, having met an untimely death!

He felt an immense sadness and tears were about to fall when Granny Sha’s voice rang out, "Don’t mind him; he’ll come back to life once he gets some moonlight. He was already dead to begin with."

Chen Shi’s tears stopped.

Granny Sha sighed and murmured, "This injury, I don’t know when it will heal..."

Hu Xiaoliang, recalling the encounter with Zhong Kui, shook his head and said, "We can’t beat him, we simply can’t!"

Zhuge Jian inquired, "What if we increase the dosage? If we increased the gunpowder in the iron thorns tenfold, could we blow up Zhong Kui? Some Talisman Masters in the Ministry are from Red Mountain Hall, and some craftsmen are from the Lu Ban Sect. They should be able to make such an oversized iron thorn weapon."

Hu Xiaoliang shook his head, "Zhong Kui’s cultivation is too profound. He is no longer afraid of thunder and fire. Even if we used ten times the dosage, it wouldn’t work against him. We need to increase it tenfold yet again."

Zhuge Jian was startled. Was he talking about explosives at the level of a heavenly tribulation?

At that moment, a giant iron pillar appeared in their view.

This iron pillar was black all over and hung down from the sky, as if it pierced through the Yin Yang Two Realms. It was marked with many strange and ancient patterns that resembled characters as well as talismans. Chen Shi, who was well-versed in various talismans, did not recognize the patterns on the pillar.

"We are now near the Western Capital," Granny Sha announced.

Using a map of the Yin Yang Two Realms, she pondered, "But near the Western Capital, there shouldn’t be such a black iron pillar. Is it a remnant?"

Remnants were the term for incredible colossal structures left over from the civilization on the West Bull New Continent before the True King Era.

These things were often massive, eternal, spanning heaven and earth, incomprehensible, and their purpose unknown.

Unexpectedly, the underworld too had remnants.

They passed by the black iron pillar, feeling the aura of a bygone era.

Chen Shi thought, "When we get back to the mortal world, we should find this place and see if such a thing exists there, too?"

At that moment, stunning halos of light appeared before them, appearing abruptly in the underworld, varying in size, emitting a gentle glow, forming spherical shapes.

Surrounding each halo of light were countless ghost souls guarding them as if the light was of significant importance to them.

Apart from these halos, there were large palaces, resembling immortal abodes, hanging upside down, standing tall in the sky.

Furthermore, seated in the sky were divine beings with vast corporeal forms, mysterious auras glowing behind their heads. They would occasionally open their eyes and look down.

"This is West Capital City," Granny Sha explained, noticing that Chen Shi and Zhuge Jian were puzzled. "The treasures you see are the ones that suppress the fate of the Western Capital. The Nine Palaces—Wenhua, Wu Ying, Hua Gai, Wen Yuan, Dong Ge, Righteousness, Central Pole, Cautious Self, and Founding Pole—are treasures left over from the True King Era. With these nine palaces, not just Demon Transformations, but also disasters and calamities can be suppressed!"

Chen Shi looked at these palaces. In the mortal world, their strength was imperceptible. Only in the underworld could one understand how fearsome the foundation of the Western Capital was!

"And what about these divine beings?" he asked.

"The Primordial Spirits from the Void Great Realm," said Granny Sha. "They are the Primordial Spirits of great beings from the Returning Void Realm and the Mahayana Realm. Their spirits can penetrate both the Yin Yang Two Realms; you can see their traces in the underworld as well. They can also see you. The aura behind their heads is the manifestation of the Void Great Realm in the underworld."

Chen Shi looked towards these powerful divine beings, his mind shaking with awe.

The Western Capital had too many strong beings!
