Chapter 846: Chapter 843: Underworld Forces

Rumble!

With Ye Xuan’s kick, the Emperor Foundation of the Emperor Immortal Sect suddenly activated. The terrifying power of the Great Emperor sprouted at that moment, instantly obliterating the billions of terrifying ghosts descending upon the Emperor Immortal Sect, turning them into nothingness!

Even the terrifying forces of the Underworld were swept away in that moment!

The Emperor Immortal Sect was restored to its previous glory.

It had the flavor of breaking through the clouds to see the clear sky.

Within the terrifying Ghost Gate, a billion zhang tall, the Third Grade Underworld Judge, upon witnessing this scene, had an expression of astonishment in his blood-red eyes: "The Emperor’s strategy?!"

He could immediately see that within this Emperor Immortal Sect, an unparalleled Emperor Foundation existed, and that Black Robe youth could manipulate this unparalleled Emperor Foundation!

Moreover, the mysterious woman behind this young man gave him an uneasy feeling.

However, having moved against the Netherworld Guide and killed so many Judges, it was absolutely unforgivable!

The Third Grade Underworld Judge snorted coldly, and a ghastly white giant hand reached out from the Ghost Gate, holding a pen with a white shaft and black tip.

Only to see the Third Grade Underworld Judge quickly writing a white character "Death" in the void with this pen!

Boom—

As the character "Death" was completed, a terrifying Death Qi surged out instantly.

The void around it visibly withered and collapsed.

Wherever the Death Qi spread, all things perished.

"A mere Third Grade Judge dares to oppose the Emperor’s layout, truly courting death." The East Desolate Wolf, having suppressed his injuries, glared fiercely at the Third Grade Underworld Judge and said grimly.

Although he suffered at the hands of this guy, it was mainly due to a sneak attack. In a one-on-one, he wouldn’t fear this guy.

"Arrogant words, this is the Judge’s Pen, formed by heaven and earth, capable of breaking the might of a Great Emperor!" the Third Grade Judge snorted coldly.

Underworld Judges all possess a Judge’s Pen, naturally formed by heaven and earth, containing extraordinary power.

It can be said that their existence is born of the Heavenly Dao. Even the might of a Great Emperor cannot easily deal with them!

Moreover, he came through the Ghost Gate; can he really be afraid of an Emperor’s layout?

How long has it been since this Emperor’s layout was set up? What is it worth?

Ye Xuan, hearing this, merely smiled coldly, eyes sharp, saying: "If it were the Four Judges here saying this, it might be understandable, but you, a Third Grade Judge, what do you count as?"

As he spoke, Ye Xuan raised his right hand in the void, clenching his five fingers.

Rumble—

From beneath the Emperor Immortal Sect, beams of white light converged, forming a massive giant hand, which suddenly clamped down on the "Death" character.

As if heaven and earth collapsed, that "Death" character turned to ashes under that grip.

The void tainted by the Death Qi also gradually recovered.

"Is this the Emperor Foundation..." The Third Grade Judge slightly squinted, secretly shocked upon seeing that scene.

Indeed, although he spoke lightly outwardly, he was well aware he couldn’t easily break through this unparalleled Emperor Foundation.

However, leaving like this would bring shame upon the Underworld.

Not mentioning before, but this time, he came to settle scores.

If the scores weren’t settled and he lost face, he’d be severely punished on return.

"Go back and tell the Five Ghost Emperors or the Ten Halls Yama, if you dare come again, someday I will flatten your Underworld!"

At some point, a weapon that looked like both a knife and a sword appeared in Ye Xuan’s right hand. Casually twisting it, Ye Xuan gripped the sword with his right hand, holding the sword’s hilt with his left palm, pointing the tip at the Ghost Gate, and cried softly:

"Point of the Dao."

Whoosh—

In that instant, a Sword Qi like a dragon burst forth from the tip of Guo Hezu’s sword, carrying the aura of the Dao, and instantly descended upon the Ghost Gate.

The Third Grade Underworld Judge felt a chill on his scalp, attempting to dodge. However, that sword seemed to transcend time and space, giving him no room to evade.

In haste, he raised his Judge’s Pen to block.

Crack—

A faint sound, and the Judge’s Pen, naturally formed by heaven and earth, snapped into two.

The Sword Qi, unhindered in its momentum, pierced through the abdomen of the Third Grade Underworld Judge.

"Ah—!"

A shrill scream echoed from within the Ghost Gate, causing chills to run down one’s spine.

"You!"

"You ruined my Cultivation!"

The voice of the Third Grade Underworld Judge rang out, filled with terror.

His cultivation was rapidly plummeting.

From a Third Grade Judge, it slipped to Fourth, then Fifth, Sixth...

If it continued, he feared he’d fall to a Ninth Grade Judge!

The Underworld Judge’s rank isn’t like an Alchemist or Artifact Refiner. Underworld Judges are divided into nine grades, with Ninth Grade being the lowest, First Grade the highest, resembling the grading of mortal court officials.

This Third Grade Underworld Judge was something akin to a "court minister", yet now he was plummeting to a "Ninth Grade small official". How could he tolerate it?

"If you keep talking, it won’t just be your cultivation that’s ruined." Ye Xuan said unhurriedly, his expression cold.

"Very well, your name is Ye Xuan, right? I’ll remember you. Hope you remember me too. I am Wan Qiming, a Judge of the Luofeng Six Heavens Yin Heavenly Palace!" The Third Grade Underworld Judge, despite his anger, didn’t forget to make threats.

However, the threats were merely empty words as the Ghost Gate slowly faded, and the Third Grade Underworld Judge vanished, probably busy stabilizing his cultivation upon return.

With the disappearance of the Ghost Gate, the Emperor Immortal Sect was completely restored to normal.

This time, it was much faster than last time.

Last time the Emperor Immortal Sect turned into a Half-Yin World, it lasted for a very long time.

Of course, that was because last time Ye Xuan was extending the life of the Third Patriarch, so the Half-Yin World remained.

But this time, it was purely the Underworld people coming to settle scores, so the nature was different.

"Luofeng Six Heavens?" Qiao Xinyu murmured softly, looking towards Ye Xuan, speaking in a low voice: "Young master, this Luofeng Six Heavens is under the Five Ghost Emperors, right?"

Ye Xuan retracted the Guo Hezu, nodding slightly: "Indeed, it is under the Five Ghost Emperors. Previously, I thought this person came from the Netherworld, but it seems not..."

The Underworld, like the mortal world, also has many factions.

Among these, the most notable are the Five Ghost Emperors and the Ten Halls Yama.

The Five Ghost Emperors oversee the Luofeng Six Heavens, and the Netherworld Guides previously seen all belong to the Luofeng Six Heavens.

The Ten Halls Yama guard the Netherworld, managing the reincarnation of all living beings in the world.

The Underworld and mortal world have always done their things independently, not interfering with each other.

However, throughout history, there have indeed been conflicts between the Underworld and the mortal world.

The biggest conflict, though, remains with the Five Ghost Emperors and the Luofeng Six Heavens.

Contrarily, the Netherworld under the Ten Halls Yama rarely descends to the mortal world, and even if conflicts arise, they are challenging to resolve.

After all, that place is not just somewhere you can go to casually.

This world harbors far too many mysterious and ancient things...
