Chapter 909: City Lord's Mansion

“So, indeed, these legendary figures have all been cursed by the Black Mountain Demon and can’t control themselves?”

Ding Ling was puzzled why these famous generals displayed no tactical skills.

They chose to swarm at him!

It seems they have all become puppets, manipulated by others.

This is no less than an insult to these legendary figures!

It’s normal for them to feel worse than dead.

Ding Ling’s Sword Wheel shattered their ghostly remnants.

Strangely, in their final moments of life, they showed colors of gratitude and amazement towards Ding Ling.

“Heroes, rest in peace.”

Ding Ling sighed softly.

Among these people.

There are heroes, naturally, as well as tyrants.

Figures such as Yang Ye, Yang Yanzhao, and Yang Yanyu from the Yang Family Generals, are all heroes!

Yet now, they are all annihilated.

The ghost Qi left by their deaths turned into nourishment for Ding Ling.

A small part of the Stream of Consciousness was stripped away.

Among them, the cultivation techniques were also detected by Ding Ling, causing the progress of Ding Ling’s Martial Dao True Understanding 2.0 version to ascend continuously.

[Purple Star Inner Power Heart Method]

[Inner Power Value +300]

[Thunderbolt Break Full Level]

[Strength +0.6]

[Agility +0.6]

[Physical Constitution +0.6]

…

As he walked along.

Ding Ling acquired high-tier Divine Skill Secret Manuals numbering in the hundreds.

Low-tier Martial Arts Heart Methods numbered in the tens of thousands!

This causing the progress of Ding Ling’s Martial Dao True Understanding 2.0 version to rise rapidly.

Ding Ling estimated that once the Martial Arts Melting Furnace finishes refining these techniques, the advancement of the Martial Dao True Understanding won’t be far off.

Because the harvest this time was indeed massive.

These renowned figures.

The techniques they practiced in life were extraordinarily superb, far stronger than the Red Fire Sword Dao of Yanz Chixia or the orthodox techniques of the current court’s Embroidered Guards!

One could imagine, these figures in life became powerful individuals known in all directions, pressing down on ten realms, all inseparable from their own greatness.

And the historical trajectory of this world isn’t much different from other worlds.

It also has Emperor Qin Shi Huang, Emperor Wu of Han.

But unlike other worlds, this world not only has martial cultivation but also contains monsters, evil ghosts, practitioners of Dao and Buddhism.

Diverse systems.

And an extremely high upper limit!

In the Ancient Era, the Human Race had suppressed ghosts and monsters, one could imagine how fierce the martial skills and Daoist techniques were in that era.

Sadly.

It’s just like the Three Kingdoms Era.

Many heritages went extinct!

Otherwise, the decline of martial skills would not have happened!

This world is the same.

But unlike the present era, the older the era, the stronger the martial arts skill of the renowned general.

And this benefits Ding Ling.

As he progresses.

The martial arts skill he acquires continues to grow.

The techniques obtained from the Ghost Soldiers mostly are incomplete, a small portion is complete, but also quite ordinary.

Only the techniques from the Ghost Generals hold more value.

Inside Ding Ling’s lower dantian, droplets of True Water gather and continuously fuse into the Golden Core.

Unconsciously.

Another 19 drops of True Water condensed.

[True Power Value: 619]

Reaching this step.

Ding Ling’s Primordial Spirit has stepped into the Third Grade Realm!

Reaching this step.

His strength has surged again.

The ability to employ Sword Control Skill has risen.

The speed of defeating enemies became faster.

Although he felt the killing of these legendary generals was regrettable.

But they are already puppets of the Black Mountain Demon, the matter has reached this point.

He can only choose to let them die.

Boom!

As Ding Ling progresses, while using Sword Control Skill mightily, he occasionally uses Qiankun Borrowing Technique, Palm Thunder shot out, powerful Ghost Generals were destroyed one by one.

Comparing the two strong Ghost Generals guarding the gate of the City of Unjust Death.

The Ghost Generals within the City of Unjust Death are mostly Golden Core Initial Tier or Middle Tier masters.

A few were Shattering Level or high-tier Golden Core masters.

No matter what tier they were.

Ultimately, they all became nourishment for Ding Ling.

Boom boom boom!

Ding Ling’s Palm Thunder displayed its power, akin to shooting lasers, amid continuous booming, Palm Thunder continuously shot out rapidly, with teamwork from the Sword Wheel, the speed of sweeping Ghost Soldiers accelerated.

Seems the losses were too heavy.

During the battle, Ding Ling and Yanz Chixia directly broke through the ranks of Ghost Soldiers and Ghost Generals, looking back.

The remaining Ghost Soldiers and Ghost Generals turned into smoke and vanished underground.

Ding Ling flew up swiftly, scanning all around.

Within the densely packed houses, some ordinary ghost souls were faintly visible.

They all looked at Ding Ling with fear and disbelief.

As if mortals seeing a Celestial God!

Like ants seeing a giant!

Fear, trepidation almost overflowed from their eyes.

Ding Ling pondered briefly, then understood:

“No doubt, these ghost souls originally lived within this City of Unjust Death, my arrival shattered their peaceful lives, it’s only normal for them to fear me.”

Ding Ling quickly searched through the previously stripped memory information stream.

Soon he found the map of the City of Unjust Death.

This City of Unjust Death is extremely vast, occupying a territory span reaching an astonishing thousand miles!

Almost endlessly sprawling.

Enveloping the entire Yellow Springs Path.

Ordinary ghost souls had no other way.

To pass through the Yellow Springs Path, one must enter this City of Unjust Death!

“It’s quite a profitable setup.”

Ding Ling grasped Yanz Chixia’s shoulder, performed Sword Flight skill, stepping on a flying sword, hurried toward the West.

In the map marks.

The City Lord’s Mansion is located in the western poor area.

While the so-called central core zone, is just a setup to confuse others.

‘Why head west?’

Yanz Chixia wondered.

Especially seeing that the further west they went, the houses became more chaotic and filthy, making him even more confused.

Ding Ling casually replied.

Yanz Chixia was moved:

“I didn’t expect the Black Mountain Demon really knows how to employ such tricks of deception and illusion.”

He sighed:

“If it weren’t for Ding Ling, understanding that special technique to acquire the map, we might have been trapped in this City of Unjust Death.”

As it turns out unknowingly.

The gates of the City of Unjust Death had already closed.

Moreover, a giant light ring appeared in the sky.

Encompassing the entire city.

Yanz Chixia tried using Palm Thunder, this light ring couldn’t be moved a bit!

If the light ring can’t be broken open, how to exit the City of Unjust Death?

In time.

It’s likely they might get assimilated by the ghost Qi here.

Or perhaps starve to death due to long-term food shortage.

Undoubtedly, this bizarre city, trapped long enough, might experience other strange occurrences? All are possible.

Yanz Chixia dared not take chances.

Thus when Ding Ling mentioned discovering the true City Lord’s Mansion, naturally he was overjoyed.

Whoosh whoosh!

After a while.

Ding Ling flew with the sword to reach a decayed courtyard.

This courtyard appeared just like a rundown home of an old landlord, the door was creaky, on the verge of collapse.

No information hints.

“Is this the City Lord’s Mansion?”

Yanz Chixia was skeptical.

“We’ll know once we go inside.”

Ding Ling pushed the door open, striding inside.

He traversed through the courtyard, arriving in the main hall.
