Chapter 2218 - 2215: Master of Netherworld

In the deep and dark center of that world, an enormous creature appeared.

It seemed like a mountain was lying across it.

But in reality.

That was a living being!

Covered in magma, it released a terrifying heat wave.

In this deep and dark world, it emitted a crimson glow.

This being had three arms.

Strangely enough.

Its third arm grew from its chest.

And at the junction of the arm and chest, there seemed to be a giant magma mouth.

As though this hand was extending from that mouth, containing immense power!

Ye Xuan’s figure soared into the air, overlooking that shocking scene.

At the same time, he also clearly saw the appearance of the creature.

This being had the same features as the Human Clan, at this moment, its eyes tightly shut.

A head of red hair swayed like strands of Divine Gold.

In the hair, tiny streams of magma flowed.

It was incredibly miraculous.

And this gigantic creature’s limbs.

Oh no.

It had three hands; it cannot be called four limbs, but five.

This gigantic creature’s five limbs were bound by five enormous chains wrapped in Curse Runes, connecting to the world’s end, continuously releasing terrifying power, suppressing this creature.

Despite such an array, the creature’s vitality still shone brightly.

The endlessly flowing magma seemed to represent this creature’s vitality.

"Yang Demon?"

At the moment of seeing this creature, a name flashed in Ye Xuan’s mind.

Yang Demon.

This guy’s Origin Power was very similar to the Yang Demon’s.

But comparatively, it seemed even more astonishing than the Yang Demon.

Boom!

At this moment.

A terrifying aura suddenly locked onto Ye Xuan.

Accompanying it was a cold voice: "You dare to come here?"

Without needing to think, it was evident that the speaker was the Master of Netherworld!

Yet this fellow still didn’t reveal itself.

Upon hearing the Master of Netherworld’s voice, Ye Xuan slightly smiled and calmly said: "Don’t be so agitated, I’m just here to have a look."

"I warn you, once this person is released, the entire All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds will descend into chaos, and you cannot stop it."

The Master of Netherworld coldly warned, with a thick cautionary tone.

Ye Xuan’s gaze fell on the gigantic creature and calmly asked: "Is this the King of Dou Tian?"

The Master of Netherworld plainly replied: "This is of no concern to you."

Ye Xuan looked toward the high sky, where the darkness was especially profound.

But Ye Xuan’s gaze could penetrate that deep darkness, seeing a coffin full of Curse Runes.

Lying in that coffin was the corporeal form of the Master of Netherworld!

Ye Xuan smiled and said: "You should know, that battle was not the end, another terrible war will come, do you truly think that by keeping this guy suppressed, you can change the future’s course?"

The Master of Netherworld, noticing Ye Xuan had discovered his location, still did not lower his head and indifferently said: "Suppressing him alone indeed cannot change much, but releasing him will change the current world."

Ye Xuan chuckled further: "I didn’t say I want to release him, did I?"

The Master of Netherworld remained silent for a while, then asked: "What is your purpose?"

Ye Xuan, with hands behind his back, restrained his smile, and leisurely replied: "I am actually just pursuing a so-called answer."

"Answer?"

The Master of Netherworld repeated, feeling somewhat inexplicable: "What answer?"

Ye Xuan shook his head: "I don’t know yet."

"But I think we should be nearing the answer."

The Master of Netherworld stated: "What does this relate to you coming to my Death Netherworld?"

Ye Xuan’s eyes were like spilled ink, deep black. He slowly spoke: "Because... behind the Xuanhuang Nine Prohibitions, they represent the Ancient Immortal Realm. Although the Xuanhuang Nine Prohibitions seemingly have no connection, each of these nine Forbidden Lands has opened nine times, I think..."

"The tenth time, something different might occur."

"Death Netherworld, as one of the Xuanhuang Nine Prohibitions, naturally also applies."

"What do you think?"

Ye Xuan, hands behind his back, stood in the void, looking up towards where the Master of Netherworld was.

The Master of Netherworld remained silent for a long time, then coldly stated: "What does this have to do with me? My only purpose is to avenge Red Cloud, nothing else."

Ye Xuan cheerfully responded: "Then why don’t you go suppress the Nine Netherworld Phoenix."

The Master of Netherworld said nothing further.

Seemingly doesn’t want to bother with Ye Xuan.

Yet Ye Xuan knew this struck the pain point of the Master of Netherworld.

Because the Master of Netherworld needed to suppress the person before him, unable to kill the Nine Netherworld Phoenix.

Moreover, the Master of Netherworld seemingly couldn’t kill the Nine Netherworld Phoenix.

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix, known as the Lord of Death, possessed a very terrifying power.

This was also the primary reason the Master of Netherworld initially wanted to borrow the Emperor Burial Lord to kill the Nine Netherworld Phoenix.

"Alright, let’s discuss serious matters."

Ye Xuan no longer ridiculed the Master of Netherworld, but plainly asked: "There’s only one question: how do you know the person behind me?"

The one behind him.

Naturally, it referred to the Emperor Burial Lord.

And this was what the Master of Netherworld always assumed.

The Master of Netherworld thought Ye Xuan belonged to the Emperor Burial Lord.

The Master of Netherworld, upon hearing this, unhurriedly said: "If I truly knew her, do you think I would have needed to play those tricks with you previously?"

Ye Xuan’s brows furrowed tightly: "You don’t know her?"

The Master of Netherworld coolly said: "I only know of her, and that she possesses very terrifying means, more than enough to kill the Nine Netherworld Phoenix."

Ye Xuan fell silent.

Honestly speaking, before coming, he had contemplated this answer.

After all, the Master of Netherworld’s previous schemes were surmised by Ye Xuan after his dialogue with Old Ghost Liu Tree.

From that point, it could be analyzed that the Master of Netherworld and the Emperor Burial Lord perhaps were just fleeting acquaintances or, like the Sovereign of Endless Sea, had only met once.

But now, it seemed even more tenuous.

"I have a way to let you leave this place."

Ye Xuan looked again towards the Master of Netherworld’s position, no longer questioning about the Emperor Burial Lord, but changed the topic.

The Master of Netherworld, upon hearing this, suddenly laughed: "Why should I trust you?"

Ye Xuan calmly replied: "Because you can only trust me."

The Master of Netherworld laughed loudly: "You are quite confident."

Ye Xuan grinned and said: "So, what is your choice?"

"Get out!"

The Master of Netherworld coldly replied.

A terrifying force burst forth, surging towards Ye Xuan.

At that moment.

As if countless worlds shattered simultaneously, that force poured upon Ye Xuan.

Causing Ye Xuan’s Immortal Profound Power to stir immensely.

Simultaneously.

In Ye Xuan’s Taoist Body, strange and ancient Dao Patterns emerged.

Under the vibration of those Dao Patterns.

That force quietly faded away.

And at this time, Ye Xuan stealthily maneuvered a stream of Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Power, silently approaching that gigantic creature...
