"Rules, we can also utilize the rules of the Dao Ancestor!"The Ghost Master’s mind worked quickly as he immediately came up with a solution. With just the strength of the nine of them, they were no match for a rule domain expert.
But they could borrow the rules!
In this underworld, the rules of enslavement were pervasive, and as the rulers of the underworld, personally enshrined by the Dao Ancestor as the Kings of the Underworld, they could completely borrow the power of rules.
"A good plan!"
The Asura Master’s eyes lit up, feeling eager to try.
By borrowing the power of rules, he could experience the strength of the rule domain in advance, which would greatly benefit his future cultivation. By taking advantage of this opportunity, he might break through to the true Unity Realm Stage.
"Rule Power, Merge!"
Having made up his mind, the Lords of the Nine Cities no longer hesitated and began to intensify the power of rules.
Boom!
Powerful streams of rule power descended from the sky, more than three hundred in number!
These streams of rule power entered the bodies of the Lords of the Nine Cities, each obtaining more than thirty streams, not much, but enough to greatly enhance their strength.
Nine strands of strength reaching the limits of the Unity Realm Stage erupted from the bodies of the Lords of the Nine Cities, their divine might vast and majestic.
As the strength of the Lords of the Nine Cities grew.
The true form of King Yanluo, condensed from the "Yanwang Array," also received a substantial boost in strength, successfully breaking through the limits of the Unity Realm Stage, revealing a faint hint of rule power.
Upon seeing this, the Lords of the Nine Cities breathed a sigh of relief.
They succeeded!
Now, they were confident they could block Xue Rengui’s attack.
"Godly Evil Qi Slash!"
The Ghost Master whispered darkly, as terrifying blood light glimmered in his crimson eyes.
The vast and boundless underworld shuddered, as torrents of evil qi rushed skyward, transforming into massive black dragons, surrounded by the aura of slaughter, alarming heaven and earth.
At this moment, the true form of King Yanluo stepped forward, releasing a terrifying suction force, absorbing all the evil qi into its body.
Boom!
After absorbing enough evil qi, the true form of King Yanluo flipped its right hand, forming a black war sword, adorned with various profound Dao patterns.
The Dark Sky Divine Sword!
Legend holds it to be the mightiest sword in the underworld, hidden between heaven and earth, usable only by the rulers of the underworld.
"Slash!"
In eternity, heaven roared, countless ghosts and gods bellowed.
The Dark Sky Divine Sword soared across!
Emitting a terrifying sword qi that pierced through the nine heavens, the dimensions of yin and yang, and the myriad worlds, ruthless and indifferent, ferocious and supreme, beyond imagination.
Heaven and earth crumbled, all beings appeared insignificant!
Only the Yan Gods, condensed by the Ten Kings of Yanluo, stood independently outside the world, transcendent and unattainable.
"Kill!"
Xue Rengui calmly remarked, glancing at the sword qi slashing towards him.
As his words fell, the Yan God above him moved, treading upon the eighteen layers of hell, wielding Reincarnation constructed from the Dao of Yin, radiating five-colored brilliance, enveloping the entire underworld.
Reincarnation!
Every living being has a lifespan coming to an end!
Heaven and earth have a time of destruction!
The universe has a time of explosion!
Everything can be regarded as having reincarnation!
And reincarnation is the starting point of all beings, because after reincarnating, one is no longer the original self but a new existence.
Buzz!
Under the watchful eyes of all, the sword qi collided with the five-element reincarnation.
There was no expected explosion, no ripple of world-ending devastation, just a bland disappearance.
Because, at the moment of collision, the sword qi was devoured by the five-element reincarnation.
Devoured!
The expression of the Lords of the Nine Cities froze, their entire beings numbed.
"Devour!"
Xue Rengui shouted.
The five-element reincarnation hovered, rapidly spinning, its divine light blazing, unleashing a powerful suction force.
Reincarnation!
Endless reincarnation, unbroken and unending!
"Ah!"
On the ground, the soldiers of the Lords of the Nine Cities still fighting, were sucked into the five-element reincarnation without noticing, disappearing after a tragic scream.
In an instant, over ten million soldiers of the Lords of the Nine Cities perished!
And this number continued to rise.
"Damn it!"
Watching this scene, the Lords of the Nine Cities felt their hearts bleed, the elite soldiers they had brought on this expedition were being slaughtered, enough to wound them deeply.
"You despicable beings, to attack ordinary living creatures!"
The Asura Master gritted his teeth, questioning angrily.
"Are they ordinary living creatures?"
Xue Rengui laughed coldly, replying chillingly, "Moreover, if you don’t perish, how will the Qin Dynasty unify the underworld?"
Unify the underworld!
The pupils of the Lords of the Nine Cities shrank sharply.
They weren’t foolish, they naturally heard the underlying implication, the Qin Dynasty not only wanted to unify the underworld, but also wanted to overthrow the enslavement rules of the Dao Ancestor and establish new rules.
If the Qin Dynasty succeeded, then the consequences...
Realizing this, the Lords of the Nine Cities shivered, their hairs standing on end, not daring to think further.
"The reincarnation must be shattered!"
The Lord of the Dark Heaven Mansion spoke solemnly.
If the five-element reincarnation were allowed to attack unchecked, they would soon become isolated commanders, with no one under them, how could they resist the Qin Dynasty’s invasion? How could they protect the rules?
"Ghost Master, we’ll merge all our rule power into your body, only then can we unleash greater strength!"
The Sect Master of the Ten Kings decided after some thought, speaking solemnly.
The Ghost Master nodded, not hesitating.
Everyone exchanged a glance, their minds aligning, channeling their internal rule power, merging it into the Ghost Master’s body.
Over three hundred streams of rule power entered his body!
The resulting vast strength twisted the Ghost Master’s face, making him feel as if he were being flayed, every inch of skin, every fragment of soul, enduring inhuman torment.
The Ghost Master gritted his teeth, enduring the agony, actively guiding the rule power within his body.
Persist!
We mustn’t give up!
This is their last chance; if they fail, there will be no chance for a comeback.
Gradually, as the Ghost Master successfully merged with the rule power, his stature enlarged to immense proportions, unleashing terrifying energy, growing several dozen times stronger than before.
Three hundred streams of rule power!
This isn’t a small number; many martial artists who broke through using heavenly materials and earthly treasures controlled just over a hundred streams at most.
Know this, mastering a thousand streams is the mark of a prodigy!
From three hundred to five hundred streams of rule power, this is what the vast majority of ordinary rule domain martial artists manage to control!
"Die!"
After getting slightly familiar with the power, the Ghost Master immediately launched an attack.
At this moment, he was in an overloaded state, unable to endure for long; if time dragged on, there was a risk of body explosion.
Clang!
A piercing sound erupted.
The Ghost Master channeled most of his strength into the staff, enveloped in terrifying ghostly power, shaking the four corners.
Then, gripping the staff tightly, he threw it with force towards the five-element reincarnation, unleashing ferocious energy, where the void crumbled, the myriad ways vanished.
The Resentment Master, Asura Master, Bone Master, Lord of the Dark Heaven Mansion, and others watched the staff eagerly, praying silently.
The reincarnation must be shattered!
But the next moment.
Everyone’s expressions froze, and their hearts sank to the bottom.
They saw the staff hurled by the Ghost Master, as it struck the five-element reincarnation. Rather than causing more than a few ripples, it was completely swallowed by the reincarnation.
