Mu Lingshan smiled and said, "The people who are here to meet you have arrived."

What's that place in there?

"Yanluo Ghost Prison, another force in the Bitter Realm's underworld, an evil organization that was once sealed away only by the combined power of the Western Buddhist Kingdom, the Western Confucian Kingdom, and the Sword Clan. Details are as follows..."

Chapter 488 The Infernal God of Hell, Good and Evil Are Subject to Law

If Xuanming had a map of the Bitter Realm, he could understand the geographical features Mulingshan described. Unfortunately, there was no map of the Bitter Realm.

He could only imagine it:

A winding river called the Sanzu River has flowed underground through the realm of suffering for millions of years. This river flows through four regions: the intermediate state, the hell of Yama, the dark realm of Nirvana, and the realm of Avici Hell. These four regions are collectively known as the Sanzu River Basin.

The Sanzu River is also known as the Forgotten River, the Ghost River, the Yin-Yang River, and the Sanzu River in these four realms.

The functions of the four realms are divided and overlapped. The intermediate realm is a transit station for dead souls, who can stay for no more than forty-nine days. After that, they enter the dark realm of Nirvana through the gate of reincarnation. The wicked are punished in the dark realm of Nirvana, while the virtuous are sent to reincarnation.

But within the realm of Avici lies the darkest and most evil Avici Purgatory, where the most heinous criminals are imprisoned for life.

The ghost race in Yama's Ghost Prison is a new race that has mutated over a long period of time due to the pollution of underground vengeful spirits and death energy.

All four realms have passages connecting to the Bitter Realm. Except for the Yama Ghost Prison, the other three realms are responsible for managing the souls of the human race who have died in the Bitter Realm. The cycle of Heaven is in effect, and each realm has its own duties.

"Since when, fewer and fewer souls have been going to the intermediate state. After a long investigation by dedicated Buddhists, a shocking secret has been discovered."

Mu Lingshan sighed deeply as he finished speaking.

Shezhiduo replied, "A large number of dead souls have flowed to the Dark Realm of Niva and the Avici Hell, and even some non-human beings have been attracted by some unknown force and have fallen into the two realms."

"Is there such a thing?"

Xuanming asked, puzzled.

Although Shezhiduo was aware of this strange phenomenon, including the fact that half of her own body was also trapped in it, she did not know why such a thing was happening.

“The living possess life essence, and the dead possess death energy, both of which enhance cultivation power. While it is understandable for the three realms to compete for the souls of the dead, it has now escalated to the point of plundering the souls of the living in the Bitter Realm and carrying out a blood sacrifice of ten thousand souls.”

"what!"

Xuanming exclaimed in shock, and Shezhiduo also showed disbelief.

"According to information obtained by the Buddhist sect, people from the Avici Hell have collaborated with people from other realms to build a Demon Refining Tower. This Demon Refining Tower is the void gate connecting the Avici Hell and the Bitter Realm. Once the Blood Sacrifice of Ten Thousand Souls is activated, the living people in the Bitter Realm will lose their souls and become walking corpses."

"I never imagined that the Avici Hell would commit such an atrocity; it is truly unforgivable! Why didn't the Master go directly to the Avici Hell to investigate, instead of taking the detour through the Dark Realm of Mud?"

"The Avici Hell is heavily guarded, with blood-forbidden walls on all four sides, which no one but the Avici Yama can break through."

"this?"

I thought the internal strife in the Mud Realm, with the prison lord allowing the ghost messengers and his army to consume souls, was already the worst situation. But I never expected that the Underworld would actually capture living people from the Bitter Realm and steal their souls. It's truly unforgivable.

The three of them had no better options at the moment and could only hope that someone from the Yama Ghost Prison would come and send the information back to the Bitter Realm as soon as possible.

Jing Wuhuan's sword strike on the border gave the Xuanming Clan hope and also alerted the Lord of the Dark Realm to something amiss.

He raised his palm, pondered for a moment, and then slowly lowered it.

"The Sanzu River basin is the domain of the gods. All who set foot here are subject to the gods in life and death. However, Death and Nothingness have not yet entered the game..."

The Lord of the Dark Realm before us is actually Yama, the God of the Underworld. It is said that Yama sleeps once every three hundred years, but in reality, the sleeping Yama transforms into the Lord of the Dark Realm and governs another powerful organization in the Sanzu River region.

If necessary, with the power of the Infernal Law, Yama could also silently eliminate Tyrant Xiao and Demon World. However, since the couple were both bloodthirsty and warlike, which perfectly satisfied Yama's desire to wage war against the Bitter Realm, he naturally wouldn't touch them again.

Now that the Yama's Ghost Prison has failed, people from the Bitter Realm are frequently spying on the Mud World through the Ghost Prison. It is likely that their next step will be to plot against the Dark World, so we must be on guard.

Ehu died in a meticulously planned ambush, led by Rahu. When the news came, Yama was very disdainful, how could a god be killed by a mortal?

However, after witnessing the destruction of the Yama Ghost Prison, where the Cold and Lonely Goddess self-destructed with hundreds of thousands of troops but still failed to harm Luo Hou, he truly took Luo Hou's strength seriously.

"I never imagined that besides the Martial God Du Qianqiu, there would be someone in the Bitter Realm who is a master of martial arts. Since Luo Hou has not appeared in the Boundless Land, we should focus on the Dark Realm Soul Devouring and the Ten Thousand Souls Blood Sacrifice."

With a slight movement, Yama God vanished into the void. When he reappeared, he was already standing in the Avici Hell that originally belonged to the Eight-Headed Demon God.

The Avici Hell is located in the Sanzu River basin. It is a terrifying place that makes even the people of the Avici region turn pale at the mere mention of it. There is only one evil god in the purgatory, namely Orochi, who was killed along with the God of Calamity.

Yama strolled through the Avici Hell, admiring the extreme and overwhelming evil energy here.

Unlike the Soul-Splitting Purgatory, the Avici Purgatory is a blue hall with walls painted with vibrant dwarf flowers that bloom, fall, and bloom again in an endless cycle.

Flowers blooming is evil, flowers withering is good.

Between the blooming and withering of flowers, a pale blue standard of good and evil flows.

After the death of the Yamata no Orochi, the Good and Evil Law returned to the Avici Hell. Because Yamata no Orochi's will still remain there, Yama did not take immediate action, but instead allowed it to continue absorbing the power of the most evil within the Avici Hell.

“My friend, I should thank you for your gift. In the past, you, me, and Death often enjoyed tea and chess here. Now, seeing this place reminds me of you, and I still can’t believe that you have truly disappeared from this world.”

Even so, we still need the things.

As Yama reached his hand into the palace wall, Turo was startled and quickly transformed into the Eight-Headed Evil God. The eight dragon heads roared angrily and spat out streaks of purple lightning.

The standards for good and evil also crumbled and disappeared, their whereabouts becoming hidden.

"Hmph, you dared to challenge me for the title of Demon King when you were alive, and now that you're dead, do you still dare to defy me?"

Enraged, Yama struck back with his palm, unleashing a torrent of demonic energy that transformed into countless black blades. Instantly, the heavens and earth roared and trembled, and the rubble of the main hall collapsed like rain.

A living Yamata might be able to compete with Yama, but a mere remnant consciousness after death is naturally no match for Yama's willful actions. Moreover, Yama, possessing the Absolute Law, has a natural advantage in this place.

With a single strike, the eight illusory dragons let out a mournful cry before vanishing into nothingness, adding another layer of extreme evil to the purgatory.

Thus, the laws of good and evil completely erased the traces of Yagi, making it ownerless, and it reappeared from the blood-red dala flower bushes.

With no further obstacles, Yan Shen grabbed it and burst into wild laughter.

"Hahahaha! God's ambitions don't stop there. He uses the Abyss Law to seize the power of the dead and the Law of Good and Evil to manipulate human thoughts. I believe that soon I will have the ability to fight against the Six Heavens."

"Then, Lord Yama, do you also wish to seize my Law of Life and Death?"

Chapter 489 My Lord, charge forward! I, Su, will cover your retreat.

Appearing before the God of Death was a life form from the deepest part of the Yin-Yang Rift, the Boundless Realm, an existence intolerable to heaven and earth, whose name was Death God.

Death wears a pointed hood and a long black robe, always covering himself up completely, which makes Yama wonder if there is something wrong with his body.

However, since they are all among the Four Gods of Darkness, they naturally wouldn't make fun of each other's fashion sense.

"My friend is joking. We share the same goal and must join forces to fight the enemy."

"Death plays among mortals, invincible and friendless. You need not try to establish any friendship with me, and you need not drag me into this mess."

Death spoke with the sound of whistling wind, whether because he was naturally mysterious or because he was actually unwell, it made the god of death feel uncomfortable.

"The Evil God is dead, but the Sin God is still sealed in the Blazing Realm. Right now, the people of the Bitter Realm are eyeing the Dark Realm. Joining forces will benefit both of us."

"Oh? What benefit would it bring me?"

"If there is no benefit, why would Death come?"

"Of course I'm here to admire your greedy face."

"Hmph, boring!"

"Death kindly reminds you, with the destruction of the Calamity Primordial Spirit, where did his Dark Universe Law and half of the Chaos Law go?"

"Could it be that besides the Four Dark Gods and the Six Heavens, there is a third party involved?"

"Hahahaha! Then I'll leave that to you. Death is waiting for an even more interesting game. Goodbye."

"please."

A dark shadow flashed by, and then vanished without a trace.

Since the death of the evil god, the god of death has stopped coming to the Avici Hell to drink tea and play chess. He's probably hiding in some corner playing his games now.

As one of the four gods of the Demon and Darkness, Yama God does not know why Death God left the Yin-Yang Rift and wandered around. He once served as king of the Kingdom of Death for a thousand years and stirred up a bloody storm in the Bitter Realm. It is said that he has been to the Nine Heavens and met the gods of the Six Heavens.

Later, he became entangled in a love-hate relationship with a woman from the Bitter Realm. Death, for some unknown reason, ran away and hid in the Avici Hell.

His personality is as unpredictable as his strength. Compared to evil gods and sin gods, the god of death is more feared by the god of death.

However, although Death appeared to refuse, the shared destiny of the four gods of darkness and darkness prevented him from escaping the impending war. His reminder, however, gave Yama pause for thought.

The evil god and the calamity are one and the same. The Dark Universe Law and half of the Chaos Law should have returned to the Infernal Purgatory, but they have disappeared without a trace. Who in the world has such power to seize the divine law?

After pondering for a moment, Yama returned to the Dark Realm of Mud God.

The siege of the Blood Wheel, Ice Charcoal, and Soul Devouring Hell armies against the Soul Rift Purgatory has lasted for a full day.

The towering pavilion collapsed halfway under the barrage of various spells, and the roof flew off, revealing the sinful souls being punished, hanging from various iron rings.

In the open space in front of the attic, blood flowed like a river and corpses piled up like mountains.

Of the 20,000 Yin soldiers that Zou Shanqi had summoned, less than 30% remained. Several three-headed, six-armed ghost generals, each over ten feet tall, protected Li Wen, Su Huanzhen, and Qu Shitu.

Li Wen roared, "Su Huanzhen, aren't you supposed to be the Emperor of the Bitter Realm? Where are your men?"

Su Huanzhen gave a wry smile: "Prison Lord, the matter we discussed was leaked that very night. I haven't even blamed you for not keeping things confidential."

"I never imagined they would send a spy right under my nose! Damn it!"

Having summoned ghost soldiers to fight, Qi Yi was now extremely exhausted, his face was deathly pale, and his hands were trembling; he was at his last gasp.

She whispered, "Su Huanzhen, you've achieved your goal. Now, quickly find a way to get us out of this predicament."

"The four lords of the prisons are all still well, so how can you say that the goal has been achieved? Let me, Su, praise you."

While it was said to be a praise of merit, in reality, it was a desperate effort. The Mud Goddess Dark Realm already suppressed the power of those in the Bitter Realm, and coupled with his weakness over the past few months, Su Huanzhen had less than 50% of his true essence left.

He immediately flicked his whisk, paused his foot, and unleashed two ultimate moves simultaneously: the Earth-Shattering Primordial Palm and the Chaos Circle. In an instant, profound energy surged, the sea of ​​clouds churned, and surging waves of energy crashed towards the Three Prisons Allied Forces.

"Ahhh~ Wow!"

"Roar~ Uh!"

The power of a single strike sent the entire army repelled, killing tens of thousands, and turning flesh and blood into foam across the sky.

"Good! Excellent! As expected of the sage Su, keep killing! Kill them all for me!"

Li Wen cheered loudly, wishing Su Huanzhen could make a few more moves so he could kill all the scoundrels who opposed him.

Su Huanzhen suppressed the sweet, metallic taste in his throat. His two ultimate moves had exhausted his inner energy. At this moment, if even an ordinary Xiantian cultivator attacked, he would have to flee for his life.

However, with a formidable enemy at hand and Marquis Li Wen beside him no pushover, Su Huanzhen naturally could not reveal his trump card.
