Chapter 345: Secrets of the Underworld

At the gate of hell in the Ten Thousand Mountains, Zhang Ye transformed into a magical Taoist and fought side by side with the Tianlang Mercenary Group. Later, the Tianlang Mercenary Group was unfortunately killed, and Zhang Ye buried them with his own hands.

I didn't expect to meet again in the underworld.

Seeing Tianlang, Xiaotao and other mercenaries fighting the soul-devouring beast, Zhang Ye was excited, roared, and killed them.

"You new souls, find shelter, don't come over!" Tianlang was fighting a powerful soul-devouring beast, and saw Zhang Ye running over and stopped him immediately.

Zhang Ye knew the Tianlang Mercenary Group, but the Tianlang Mercenary Group didn't know him, because Zhang Ye met them with a fake face at the beginning.

Zhang Ye smiled, stood up, and punched the soul-devouring beast fighting with Tianlang. Zhang Ye smiled and said, "Tianlang, you were not so weak when you were in the Ten Thousand Mountains!"

Tianlang was stunned. This new soul was so fierce! But how did he know my name and the Ten Thousand Mountains?

But Zhang Ye didn't say anything, turned around, and killed the other soul-devouring beast that was fighting with Xiao Tao.

Zhang Ye kicked the soul-devouring beast away and looked at Xiao Tao, the little girl who had surrounded him and couldn't speak because of the punishment from heaven, but used her divine thoughts to chatter and say that she admired Zhang Ye the most.

Xiao Tao was no different from when she was alive. She still had a baby face, rosy cheeks, and watery eyes, which made people love her.

"Xiao Tao, how are you?" Zhang Ye laughed heart-wrenchingly, and helped other members of the mercenary group to kill the soul-devouring beast.

Xiao Tao opened her mouth, and like her brother, she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time, but the war was urgent, so she couldn't think about other things, and continued to kill other soul-devouring beasts.

Zhang Ye fought side by side with the mercenary group, just like the days in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Of course, Zhang Ye also noticed that the words "Rakshasa Army" were written on their armor. It was expected that they had joined the official organization of the underworld. It seems that they have been doing well in recent years.

Not only was there the Rakshasa Army led by Tianlang, but there were also Rakshasa armies in other places. These black dogs were defeated and gradually retreated into the mountains and rivers.

The shore of the bitter sea was in a mess, more than half of the new souls died, and the Rakshasa Army also suffered losses.

When cleaning up the battlefield, Tianlang and Xiaotao came close to Zhang Ye and bowed: "Thank you for your help, sir. I'm sorry to ask if I have seen you before?"

Zhang Ye thought about it and thought that if he said he was Zhang Ye, Tianlang would definitely not know the key, so he said: "I am the magical Taoist."

Tianlang and Xiaotao were shocked, and seemed to be a little happy and confused. Tianlang frowned and said: "I knew a magical Taoist in my life, but he was not like you."

Zhang Ye did not explain and looked at Xiaotao: "I am Zhang Ye."

When Zhang Ye pretended to be the magical Taoist, he only told Xiaotao his true identity, so Xiaotao should understand.

Xiao Tao reacted immediately, so excited that she didn't know what to say. She came over and grabbed Zhang Ye's shoulders, jumping and jumping: "Are you really Zhang Ye?"

Xiao Tao's voice was very nice, like spring water, dingdong crisp, Zhang Ye heard it for the first time.

Tian Lang was very puzzled, sometimes he was a magical Taoist, and sometimes he was Zhang Ye, wasn't he crazy? Tian Lang pulled his sister back and looked at Zhang Ye vigilantly: "Who are you?"

Zhang Ye and Xiao Tao both laughed, so Xiao Tao told Tian Lang about Zhang Ye's affairs. After a lot of effort, Tian Lang finally understood.

Tian Lang stared at Zhang Ye, his eyes were a little red, and he waved his hand: "Tian Lang Mercenary Group, assemble!"

Immediately, the other mercenary group members who cleaned up the battlefield gathered together. Tian Lang said a few words and immediately took the lead to kneel down to Zhang Ye.

"Thank you, benefactor, for avenging my Tian Lang Mercenary Group!"

Zhang Ye was a little surprised, but then he thought about it and understood that the Tian Lang mercenaries were killed, and Zhang Ye killed the Taoist priest of Tian Dao Palace. They must know about it in the afterlife.

"Please get up quickly." Zhang Ye helped everyone up, exchanged greetings, and talked about many past events. Now things have changed, and everyone is sighing.

"By the way, benefactor, why are you here too? We will find a way to help you return to the world!" Tianlang insisted on calling Zhang Ye a benefactor, and Zhang Ye had no choice but to accept this title.

Zhang Ye was grateful, but his body had long been annihilated and could not return to the world. He briefly said something, and everyone felt sorry.

Xiaotao took Zhang Ye's arm. It seemed that she was the only one who was happy that Zhang Ye was dead. After all, she never dreamed that she could see Zhang Ye's true face with her own eyes. He was so handsome.

Tianlang's face froze, and he thought of something, and hurriedly pulled the girl back: "Don't be rude."

Then Tianlang said: "Benefactor, since you can't go back, why don't you go to the underworld with us first, and then make plans?"

Zhang Ye was thinking about this, and arched his hands: "Thank you very much."

Tianlang's warships are much more advanced than the previous ferry boats. Zhang Ye was on the boat and listened to Xiaotao talk about many things about the underworld.

For example, these soul-eating beasts are evil beasts bred by the resentment of the underworld, specializing in eating human souls. The bitter sea outside the underworld city is to prevent these soul-eating beasts from entering the underworld city.

Moreover, these black soul-eating beasts are not that powerful. There is a purple soul-eating beast that even they are helpless against, called the ghost-eating beast, which can only be dealt with by the Shura Army.

Zhang Ye asked what the Shura Army is?

Xiao Tao replied that Shura is a kind of creature in the underworld that looks like a human but not a human. It is essentially different from ghosts and has a physical body. The male is ugly, and the female is extremely beautiful. The Underworld Emperor is the Shura King.

Zhang Ye thought of the vicious Rakshasa when he used the Soul Gathering Banner to summon the soul of Han Linger's mother, and asked some more questions. Xiao Tao smiled and said, "Everyone says that Shura is cruel and Rakshasa is an evil ghost, but that's not true. They are cruel to living people just to protect ghosts and the order of the underworld. For example, I am a Rakshasa now."

"Am I fierce?" Xiao Tao showed her white teeth and pretended to be fierce and howled.

"Give me a dozen of such Rakshasa." Zhang Ye made a joke, which made Xiao Tao very happy. As for Tianlang, the sister control, he stood at the bow with a face full of resentment and sighed.

In general, the ghosts in the underworld are also divided into different levels. Ordinary ghosts are called ghost people. If ghost people come into contact with cultivation, they will become Rakshasa, with strength equivalent to that of ordinary cultivators in the mortal world, and the strongest can reach the realm of transcending tribulation.

If a Rakshasa in the realm of transcending tribulation can get the reward of the Underworld Emperor and take the Asura Pill, he can have a physical body and be promoted to a Shura with a physical body.

…

The more Zhang Ye listened, the more he felt that there were many strange things in the underworld. At this moment, a thunderous roar of beasts came from the mountains and rivers. Several purple dogs covered with lightning leaped to the shore of the bitter sea and slaughtered all the ghosts who had not yet crossed the bitter sea. Then they stared at the warships in the bitter sea with their teeth bared, but did not dare to chase them.

"This is the ghost-swallowing beast!" Xiao Tao's face was a little pale, and Tianlang ordered to speed up the evacuation. After all, the ghost-swallowing beast was not something that the Rakshasa Army could deal with.

At this time, a number of keel warships broke through the waves, in the opposite direction of the Tianlang warships, and attacked the ghost-swallowing beasts on the shore.

On the keel warships, there stood many beautiful women with beautiful features, slender bodies, and fair skin. Especially the thin clothes, with only a tulle covering the key parts, it really made people's blood boil, and Zhang Ye couldn't help but take a few more glances.

But when I saw those male Shuras, I felt a little disgusted. They all had black skin, inverted triangle eyes, green eyes and fangs. They were all Shuras, so why were they so different?

But we can't underestimate these Shuras. As soon as they landed, they fought fiercely with the purple ghost-devouring beasts, causing mountains and rivers to collapse and huge waves to surge above the bitter sea.

In the end, some Shuras were killed, but the ghost-devouring beasts were repelled, and even two were killed.

The soul-devouring beasts were counterattacked by the Rakshasa Army, and the ghost-devouring beasts were counterattacked by the Shura Army. It was well organized. It seems that the underworld has been attacked by those vicious dogs many times. Only after experiencing thousands of wars can they be so skilled and at ease.

Zhang Ye watched them fight, mainly to see the weapons used by the Shuras, and the female Shuras just took a few glances. Well, believe it or not.

Zhang Ye found that those Shuras were holding a kind of steel fork with green ghost fire, which should be the underworld weapon, and it was much more advanced than the underworld weapon used by the Tianlang Mercenary Group.

Zhang Ye said to Xiao Tao: "Can you lend me your sword?"

Xiao Tao immediately drew out her sword and handed it to Zhang Ye.

Zhang Ye took it and looked at it. He said that he felt familiar with it. This was the king sword that Zhang Ye used to sacrifice to the Tianlang Mercenary Group. There was also a note left by Zhang Ye on it: "Sacrifice to the sixteen heroes of the Tianlang Mercenary Group, gifted by the magical Taoist!"

But this sword is a little different. It is looming, as if it is unreal like a ghost.

Xiao Tao stuck out her tongue: "This sword was originally given to my brother by you, but I like it too much, so I asked for it. You won't be angry, right?"

At the beginning, the sword was used for sacrifice, which was a birthday gift promised to Xiao Tao for her brother. In the end, it still fell into Xiao Tao's pocket.

Zhang Ye smiled helplessly, but he didn't care about this. Instead, he asked: "How can a mortal sword be used in the underworld?"

Zhang Ye was asking about the key to creating underworld tools.

Xiao Tao replied: "As long as there are certain sacrificial methods, the things of the living can be used in the underworld."

Does it mean that he only needs to sacrifice the heavenly spiritual treasure he created to turn it into a underworld tool? Is it that simple?

I can’t tell now, I’ll try it out when I get to the Dark City.

(The following text should be free of charge)

In the chapter where Xiao Tao died, the author couldn’t bear it (actually she was beaten), so he went back and made some minor changes.

In Chapter 167, in order to bribe Zhang Ye, Elder Dingyuan told him a secret, saying that Elder Qingchen was inhumane, and Xiao Tao died innocent.

Many old readers may not have seen that, to put it bluntly, the Taoist who insulted and killed Xiao Tao was actually a wú. Don’t hit me anymore.
