Chapter 860: Chapter 530: Netherworld

"Houtu..."

"She really is a powerhouse standing at the peak of the Cosmos."

"She opened up the Land of the Netherworld, and her next step is even to create the Six Paths of Reincarnation."

Underneath the City Lord’s Mansion.

No one had expected that the underground of the Demon City had actually been hollowed out.

The Jiao King evaporated the damp blood on his hands until it was clean.

He walked downward step by step.

In the middle of the dim underground space.

There was a protruding, sharp, ice-blue stone.

"The Netherworld and the Main World have places where the distance between their spaces is rather thin."

"So thin that the Netherworld Power can diffuse into the present world."

The Cold Flood Dragon looked around, his eyes narrowing slightly.

He lowered his gaze, trying to touch that sharp ice-blue stone with his hand.

Yet in the next second, the Jiao King reacted as though he had touched the hottest of flames, and jerked his hand back.

"My strength really still isn’t enough."

"The Netherworld has already been opened."

"According to the information left by my ancestor, the Land of the Netherworld will absorb the remnant souls of all living beings who die in this world."

"And prepare for the Six Paths of Reincarnation."

"Although under the gaze of the Houtu Ancestral Witch, no one dares to touch these remnant souls to cultivate."

"However, the Land of the Netherworld has only just opened; the cold Netherworld Power within it far surpasses any blessed land in the world."

"If a being without any foundation enters, they will inevitably be assimilated by the Netherworld, turning into so-called ghost creatures."

"But a being like me, who cultivates the Yin Cold Dao, stepping into it instead can absorb the power of the Netherworld."

"According to the information provided by my ancestor, a hundred years ago there was a True Dragon in the Dragon Race who accidentally obtained the Netherworld’s power."

"Therefore, using the Dragon Race bloodline as a medium to absorb the Netherworld Power and strengthen oneself is entirely feasible."

A gleam flashed in the Jiao King’s eyes.

His origin was in fact extraordinary.

His fore-ancestor was a True Dragon from the Dragon Palace of the East Sea.

That True Dragon went out three thousand years ago and accidentally left behind a Dragon Species.

This kind of Dragon Vein Demon Beast was not uncommon.

But in this bloodline, aside from the Jiao King, there was no other descendant whose bloodline regression to the ancestor was as perfect.

And he had quite a high talent on the Yin Cold Dao.

Thus, that ancestor, sensing that a talent had appeared among his bloodline descendants,

and cherishing talent, pointed out to him a Great Dao leading straight to the heavens.

"I just need to speed up a little more."

Although this place was far from the Star Sea.

That battle a hundred years ago, through Dragon Race channels, let many powerhouses learn that under the Starry Sea Dragon Palace a rather powerful Human Race faction had emerged.

Although most people’s attention was on the Human Race.

There were inevitably some who discovered Houtu’s involvement in it.

And discovered that True Dragon who possessed Netherworld Power.

"As long as I purify my bloodline a little further, I’ll be able to touch this Nether Ice Stone."

"And thereby obtain the power of the Nether Ice Stone."

"Obtain the power of the Netherworld."

"What is breaking through to Demon Emperor compared to that?"

"What I want is bloodline regression to the ancestor, to become a Celestial Demon, and go to the Dragon Palace!"

The Jiao King’s eyes were filled with surging ambition.

He raised his hand.

The injured part rapidly recovered and healed.

His palm suddenly clenched tight; what he grasped was the entire Demon City.

"Draining the pond to catch the fish? Hmph."

"After I break through, the entire Demon Country will be mine!"

......

An oppressive aura descended over the entire Demon City.

The atmosphere in the Demon City had originally been lively.

Trade came and went without cease.

The Demon King sheltered the people of his domain.

The people in turn provided the Demon King with resources.

Mutual benefit.

But now.

The streets were full of demon soldiers ransacking resources everywhere.

If there was even the slightest bit of resistance, they would kill.

The bodies of the Demon Race were themselves the best resources.

Only the great clans, after paying a huge price, could avoid being affected.

In normal times.

Although all parts of the Demon Country were under separate rule.

The nominal Common Lord, the Demon Emperor, still existed.

The various great clans could always report to the Demon Capital.

The Demon Capital was more than willing to send experts to seize a lands rich in resources.

Yet now, the Demon Capital was in chaos, the Imperial Family was in civil war, and the Old Demon Emperor was nowhere to be seen.

The Demon Capital could barely protect itself, so how could it have the mind to care about a tiny Demon City?

...

On the street, a few Rabbit Demons nervously pulled their hoods down.

They hurried along the street in a group.

Several shadows loomed over them.

"Y-you... what are you going to do?"

The Rabbit Demons trembled, speaking in fear.

Standing before them were three Wolf Demons.

"Yuli Rabbit clan?"

"Ever since those Grass Pills came out, we brothers haven’t eaten Yuli Rabbits in a long time."

"Never thought you’d deliver yourselves to our door."

"I’ve never eaten them before."

"Little brother, let me tell you, these Yuli Rabbits—there’s not even a hint of gaminess when you eat them; instead they’re full of medicinal fragrance."

"Funny, isn’t it? These little rabbit brats don’t even need to be stewed, you can just eat them straight."

"Hahaha."

Red light glowed in the Wolf Demons’ eyes.

Orders had already come from above, telling them to be more unscrupulous.

Previously this group of rabbits had the City Lord’s protection, so they naturally didn’t dare touch them.

But now even the old City Lord’s skeleton had been taken and made into an Artifact.

Who could possibly protect this group of rabbits now?

Selling this group of rabbits directly would fetch a price far higher than ordinary races.

The rabbits huddled together, trembling.

Their rabbit ears covered their eyes, as if that would lessen the pain.

"All of you, get lost!"

A figure suddenly appeared, shielding them.

Vast Demon Qi erupted.

The three Wolf Demons’ expressions changed, and they hurriedly retreated.

No matter how lousy the rabbits’ combat strength was.

The gap between Late-Stage Demon Pill and Early-Stage Demon Pill was enormous.

Yu Lin looked around warily.

She instructed the rabbits beside her.

"Pass the word down: in the days to come, everyone stays holed up in the burrow."

"No one needs to come to the market to buy materials anymore."
