Chapter 240: Opening up the Underworld and Collecting Ghosts

Time passed in a hurry, and more than ten days passed quickly. The Blood Snake family members in Gaizhou Acropolis began to be hunted and exterminated one after another.

As for the identity of the Emperor Hades of the Dynasty, it was also completely spread.

Thanks to this, the character of the Underworld Emperor, newly born in the dynasty, finally evolved.

The moment the evolution of the Underworld Emperor's personality was completed, he felt a connection somewhere, but that connection was extremely far away, as if they were separated by a world.

"Eh~?"

Chao Chao was slightly confused at first, how could the person of Emperor Hades be connected with any existence in this world.

Then he suddenly realized that the person who was connected to him must be the Hades Emperor of the Celestial World, right?

If you say that, isn't it a world away?

Involuntarily, Wang Chao looked thoughtful.

I don’t know if he would establish a real connection with the world of the Celestial Dynasty if he were in this world and evolved all the world and status he had evolved.

In addition, with the evolution of the Underworld Emperor's personality, he also absorbed the power of many rules of this world.

This allowed Dynasty to truly have an identity that belonged to him in this world, and he would no longer be suppressed and excluded by the rules of this world.

At the same time, the dynasty's control over the evil spirit has once again risen to a higher level, and its power has become more restrained. This makes Zhang Zhaoyi and others who are integrated with the evil spirit no longer so easily eroded and polluted by the evil energy.

After condensing the personality of the Underworld Emperor, it is natural to open up the underworld and enshrine the Yin God.

only.

Feeling the faint aura surrounding Gaizhou Acropolis, the dynasty felt embarrassed again.

With this little bit of cunning, what kind of underworld can he create?

Moreover, in this world, there is no national destiny for him to rely on to open up the illusory underworld.

Looking at the devout believers who passed by him and went to worship at the Chenghuang Temple, Wang Chao couldn't help but sigh.

Sure enough, only suffering can give birth to strong faith.

After knowing that there was an Emperor of Hades and that there was a bloody evil spirit, the City God's faith immediately soared.

And the common people spontaneously built a Mingdi Temple next to the City God's Temple.

It's just that it hasn't been completely built yet.

Otherwise, the incense in Mingdi Temple will definitely be stronger than that in Chenghuang Temple.

Especially after most of the blood snake relatives were hunted and the city became relatively safe, even if there is a shortage of food in the city and it takes a lot of time to find food, thousands of people will go to the City God Temple every day.

Suddenly, Wang Chao's heart moved and he quickly rushed towards the City God's Temple.

In the crowded Chenghuang Temple, endless strange auras were continuously generated, spreading in all directions, and eventually enveloped the entire Gaizhou Acropolis.

At this time, it is no exaggeration to say that Gaizhou Acropolis is a ghost town.

The souls of the dead here will not be wiped out by the power of heaven and earth, but will turn into nearly immortal ghosts after devouring the evil energy.

Even Zhang Zhaoyi and others can easily kill these ghosts.

However, as long as there are people who know about these ghosts, they will always rise again.

Fortunately, today's ghosts are newly born, and the energy of heaven and earth in this world is far less than that of the world where the Celestial Dynasty is, and there is no way for them to condense the bodies of powerful ghosts.

Therefore, they can only rely on their special existence form, their own mysterious power, sudden appearance, etc. to intimidate others, so as to obtain the gathering of spiritual power.

Therefore, no one has died so far.

However, as time goes by, the evil spirit becomes more and more intense, and these ghosts are rapidly strengthening.

Dynasty estimates that in about a year and a half, the power they possess will be enough to cause death.

Seeing the strange aura spreading out from the City God's Temple, and the brilliance of divine power that was born on the City God's statue as people continued to worship it, the Dynasty couldn't help but sigh, this was much stronger than many of the statues in the world of the Celestial Dynasty.

Then he looked at the Ming Emperor Temple on the side, which also had divine power blooming, but it was much weaker than the statue of the City God, which was directly worshiped by a large number of believers.

After pondering for a moment, the Dynasty took a step forward and entered the City God's Temple. His figure disappeared into the spiritual plane, completely ignoring the obstacles of many believers who were passing by each other, with almost no gaps, and passed directly through them. We arrived at the main hall of the Chenghuang Temple.

With a slight thought, the boundless aura that enveloped the entire Gaizhou Acropolis surged together.

"Realize yin and yang and open up the underworld!"

The dynasties pointed together into swords, and the authority and power of Emperor Hades was mobilized by it, in line with the rules of the surrounding heaven and earth, and he slashed towards the statue of the City God.

"Click!"

The color of deep darkness bloomed, and the space at the spiritual level was immediately broken open.

The sound of space shattering spread into the hearts of people all over the city.

"Eh~?"

"Eh~? What's the sound?"

Involuntarily, everyone looked in the direction of the City God's Temple.

However, they found nothing.

However, Zhang Zhaoyi and others were vaguely aware of the strange changes in the city.

It seemed that the entire Gaizhou Acropolis was gathering towards the City God's Temple.

Everyone looked at each other and immediately started rushing towards the City God's Temple in twos and threes.

When they arrived at the Chenghuang Temple, their feelings became clearer.

The turbulent strange energy gathered and poured towards the statue of the City God in a steady stream.

Faintly, many people in the City God Temple even saw the City God statue, which began to emit strands of divine light.

"Is this... the City God showing his spirit?"

"The City God has shown his spirit!"

"May the City God bless us!"

In an instant, many believers in the City God Temple all knelt down.

On the other side, Zhang Zhaoyi and others looked at the people kneeling around them. After a slight hesitation, they still did not kneel down, but saluted in the direction of the City God Temple.

They were also related to the Hades Emperor, and the City God was also a subordinate of the Hades Emperor.

In this case, when they faced the Hades Emperor, they were not allowed to kneel, so how could they kneel down to worship the City God?

Wouldn't that be a slap in the face of the Hades Emperor?

Therefore, they simply saluted.

"Could it be because of the Hades?"

"That's for sure."

"I just don't know what the Hades is doing?"

"Do you think the Hades has appointed a new city god?"

"Maybe. How can we guess what a big shot does?"

"That's right.

I just don't know whether it will be good or bad in the end."

"It should be good, right? After all, the strange air in the city is disappearing."

"Well, maybe in the future, this place will return to normal again."

"Return to normal?"

Zhang Zhaoyi frowned slightly.

Returning to normal is not necessarily a good thing. He didn't forget that the Gaizhou Weicheng where they were was besieged by the Qing army.

If the Gaizhou Weicheng returned to normal, it would inevitably attract another attack by the Qing army.

However, even if he had any ideas, it would not affect the decision of the Hades.

"Alas!"

In the end, he could only sigh secretly in his heart.

I hope the final development will not be the worst.

After Wang Chao broke through the spiritual space, he immediately took a step forward, carrying boundless strange energy, and stepped into the crack of the broken space.

Endless strange energy surged and gathered, and was woven and evolved by Wang Chao with the power of the Hades, gradually turning into a dark world.

The size was only a hundred meters in radius, and there was a gloomy atmosphere between heaven and earth.

Below was the deep dark earth, and there were thin clouds in the sky above.

The sun from the outside world shone in, bringing a ray of light to this world, but it seemed cold and hazy, as if there was no temperature at all.

Then, Wang Chao's thoughts moved slightly, and the City God Temple in the real world was projected and evolved in this newly opened spiritual underworld.

Then, endless strange energy and rule power gathered, and the City God Temple continued to condense. The statue in the main hall of the City God Temple began to emit dark golden divine light, and gradually merged with the divine light of the City God statue in the real world.

"Boom!"

As the divine light of the real world was completely integrated, the entire underworld shook violently, and it became completely solid and stable.

From then on, the statue of the city god in the real world was the carrier of the underworld.

Then, Wang Chao's mind moved, and the status of the Hades Emperor flew out of his body, instantly falling into the depths of the underworld space, and turned into the core of the underworld.

Endless dark gold light bloomed, instantly spreading throughout the underworld, slowly blending into every corner.

"Om~!"

The underworld shook slightly again, becoming more solid and stable.

Countless beliefs about the underworld and the underworld emperor gathered continuously, and after being transformed by the status of the underworld emperor, they became the source of power of the underworld, while supporting the existence of the underworld, they were also constantly expanding the space of the underworld.

From then on, with the statue of the city god as the carrier and the status of the underworld emperor as the core, as long as there are legends and beliefs about the underworld emperor and the underworld in the real world, the underworld will always exist, and even slowly grow and expand.

Finally, it enveloped the entire Gaizhou Weicheng, and even a wider area.

At the same time, Wang Chao also felt that this underworld space was vaguely connected to a larger, deeper and heavier underworld.

Needless to say, that was naturally the underworld of the Celestial Empire.

There was even the pure strange air of the Celestial Empire underworld, which was scattered from the position of the Underworld Emperor and spread rapidly to the underworld.

After these strange airs merged with the surrounding strange air, the essence of the surrounding strange air was immediately improved a little, and even this underworld world was more solid and stable.

It seemed that even if it lost the power of faith and legend from the outside world, it could still exist.

Of course, Wang Chao knew in his heart that this was just an illusion because this underworld world suddenly gained the support of the power of the Celestial Empire underworld.

After all, even if it was the underworld of the Celestial Empire, if it lost all living beings, it would also slowly weaken, and even collapse and die.

Not to mention the underworld of this world.

But speaking of it.

The underworld of this world is more in line with the legendary underworld.

Because the strange energy in it is more like the negative power of all living beings, which is integrated with the energy of heaven and earth and evolved into a kind of extremely yin energy of heaven and earth.

If it does not also have the negative consciousness of all living beings, it will also cause erosion and pollution to people's spiritual consciousness. It should be called yin energy, or ghost energy.

And this underworld, at the spiritual level, also has a real impact, otherwise it cannot be carried by the statue of the city god.

And the underworld of the Celestial Empire is more like a kind of information space.

Scanning the underworld again, Wang Chao pondered slightly, and then his mind moved.

The invisible force swept out from the City God Temple in an instant, sweeping across the entire Gaizhou City.

"Hmm~?"

Zhang Zhaoyi and others could not help but freeze when the invisible force swept past.

At that moment, they seemed to see a gloomy and dark world, with a cold and majestic will that looked down at the sky and earth, making people unable to raise the slightest resistance.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh"

Under that force, all the ghosts in the entire Gaizhou City quickly gathered towards the City God Temple under an invisible pulling force.

"Be careful, there are ghosts!"

When they came nearby, they were immediately discovered by Zhang Zhaoyi and others, and they could not help but be shocked and alert.

However, Zhang Zhaoyi soon discovered that those ghosts did not seem to come on their own initiative, but seemed to be forcibly dragged by an invisible suction force.

Because many ghosts flew backwards with their fangs and claws bared, which was not voluntary at a glance.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Zhaoyi couldn't help but feel moved and stopped the people who were about to take action.

"Don't do it yet, let's see the situation first."

"General?"

Everyone looked at Zhang Zhaoyi after hearing this.

However, Zhang Zhaoyi at this time did not answer them, but stared at the ghosts that were gathering quickly.

Seeing this, everyone turned their heads to look.

However, although they were still on guard, they did not intend to take action immediately.

After the ghosts gathered at the City God Temple, their bodies immediately twisted and rippled, as if they had entered a piece of water with ripples.

The next moment, the ghosts disappeared.

"Eh~?"

"Where are the ghosts? Where are those evil ghosts? Why are they gone?"

Everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes and began to look around.

However, some people showed a thoughtful look, and Zhang Zhaoyi's face showed a look of understanding.

Sure enough,

This is the City God detaining ghosts all over the city.

Underworld

"Shua shua shua"

Ghosts emerged quietly, looked around blankly, then narrowed their eyes, swallowed the surrounding strange air, and showed a look of enjoyment.

The momentum on his body began to rise steadily.

These ghosts, after all, are the evolution of dead souls. Although their consciousness and cognition have been erased, some spiritual instincts from humans still exist.

For example, maintaining their own existence, swallowing and growing, some changes in mood and expression under special circumstances, etc.

Looking at hundreds of thousands of ghosts, Wang Chao couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

There are too few things he can do in this world.

In just ten days, hundreds of thousands of people have died under the cover of its strange air.

Then, Wang Chao's face became solemn and he gave a loud command.

"Enshrine, ghost soldiers! Ghost messenger!"

In an instant, the status of the Hades Emperor shook, and dark golden light fell, instantly merging into the bodies of many ghosts.
