Chapter 155: Seizing the Underworld
Is the Black Mountain Patriarch dead?
It’s really hard to say, because the giant bat is just the physical body that the Black Mountain Ancestor cultivated using special skills, and his original body, Black Mountain, is still there.
However, what the old peach tree said is right. We will know once we break into his immortal palace.
Even if this guy isn't dead yet, he'll be dead if his immortal palace is breached.
Chen Jiu looked at the wall of Yindu City behind him, and sensed the location of the entrance to the Black Mountain Patriarch's Immortal Palace, and said decisively: "Qianqian, go and ask your second uncle to take all the gods and ghosts in Wudu City into the Immortal Palace, and then you and Lao Tao will go into my Immortal Palace to hide.
This Black Mountain Patriarch is so powerful, and the entrance to the Immortal Mansion is so close to Wudu City. Even the protective magic formation of Wudu City may not be able to stop it. It is too dangerous for you to stay in the city."
This is easy.
Zhang Qianfei returned to the city wall and told Zhang Shixin about it. Zhang Shixin immediately got busy above Wudu City. Soon all the golden-bodied gods and ghost cultivators inside were taken into his immortal palace.
Chen Jiu took Zhang Qian, Zhang Shixin and Lao Taoshu into the Yindu Immortal Palace, then looked back at the nearby Wudu City. He simply transformed the golden wings into more than ten miles long, blocking the entire east wall of Wudu City. He also transformed the golden armor helmet into a spherical shape to protect his face. Then he slowly pulled out Kaitian and used his spiritual sense to lock onto the entrance of the Black Mountain Patriarch's Immortal Palace.
The artifact Golden Wings should be able to block most of the explosion power. I hope the city of Wu will not be destroyed. After all, it is quite troublesome to build such a big city.
He flapped his wings lightly, slowly floated up and adjusted his position, then raised the Sky-Opening Sword and chopped it down with one blow.
With a sharp whistling sound, a sword energy dozens of miles long fell down, and the huge Black Mountain was instantly split in half.
There was a loud bang immediately afterwards, and he was blown backwards into the sky by the huge shock wave, thrown hundreds of feet away. The black mountain that was split in half was also blown apart and drifted to both sides at a rapid speed.
This time, the Black Mountain Ancestor should be dead. His main body and immortal palace were broken at the same time. Even the most powerful ghost immortal would die.
"Ajiu, what are you doing? You came here without saying a word. Ali and the others are worried to death."
The Great Divine Cauldron suddenly appeared behind him and started muttering something.
Chen Jiu smiled slightly and said, "I didn't do anything, I just killed a ghost fairy."
Honghuang Shending couldn't help but complain, "You haven't done anything yet. The shock just now almost made Jiuling Mountain jump up. Ah Li and the others were so scared that they cried and shouted for me to bring them to find you."
Uh, well, the noise just now was indeed a bit loud, and I forgot to go back to Jiuling Mountain to say hello to them.
Chen Jiu looked at the twisted space around him, flapped his golden wings to feel the violent airflow, and then flew to the lid of the Honghuang Divine Cauldron and said solemnly: "Let them out and put them next to me. I will protect them with my golden wings."
"Okay, you caught it."
In a flash, Luo Li and the other three appeared beside him.
"Ouch, why are you shaking so much?"
As soon as the four girls were released, they were blown to and fro by the violent airflow. Zhang Wanxia couldn't help but scream in surprise.
Fortunately, Chen Jiu directly transformed the golden wings into long feathers and wrapped them.
Seeing this scene, Xu Yanran couldn't help but ask curiously: "What happened? The sky is shaking."
Chen Jiu smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing. I just split open the immortal palace of a ghost fairy. Look at the front of Wudu City. The immortal palace is pushing up from underground."
Xu Yanran had never seen such a spectacular scene before. She stared at the distorted space in front of her with wide eyes. She was completely stunned and forgot to ask questions.
Chen Jiu extended his spiritual sense and carefully felt the changes in the space. Suddenly, he was also stunned.
Because he vaguely saw that there were huge tree monsters in the Black Mountain Patriarch's immortal palace, and there were more than one.
No wonder tens of thousands of bat soldiers suddenly appeared and attacked Wudu City just now. It turned out that the Black Mountain Patriarch brought all the tree monsters here.
Can these tree monsters be subdued?
He thought about it and decided to send his spiritual consciousness deep into the Yindu Immortal Palace to discuss things with the old peach tree.
No one knew how long it had passed, but the entire world finally calmed down. Chen Jiu did not hesitate to collect the four women and the Primordial Divine Cauldron into the Immortal Palace. Then he flapped his wings and flew at full speed towards the Immortal Palace that had exploded from the Black Mountain Ancestor.
Rumble, a sound of thunder rang out, and Chen Jiu appeared in front of a dead tree two or three hundred feet high.
At this time, the tree demons were trembling with fear, because Chen Jiu's golden wings were several miles long when spread out, and were larger than her body.
Chen Jiu used his spiritual sense to take a quick look and couldn't help but secretly rejoice. The bat soldiers were still there, and there were still a lot of Blood Soul Pills under the tree monster. It seemed that these were the Blood Soul Pills that the Black Mountain Ancestor was going to use to break through to the realm of True God. This time, all of them were his.
However, on the surface, he still said coldly: "The Black Mountain Patriarch was killed by me, do you know?"
The tree demon was frightened and panicked: "I don't know, no, I know."
Ugh, this is going to scare me to the point of going insane.
Chen Jiu was stunned for a moment, then simply waved his hand to summon the old peach tree out.
Lao Taoshu immediately transformed into a huge tree man, raised his hand and gently comforted her: "Little sister, don't be afraid, Ajiu is a good person, and Black Mountain Patriarch is the bad guy."
This tree demon happened to be a peach tree. When she saw the old peach tree that was more than twice as big as her and still lush and green, she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Sister, you are so beautiful, have you become an immortal?"
The old peach tree said with a hint of pride: "That's not true. When I followed the Black Mountain Patriarch, I was just like you. I was living like an old woman. I begged him several times but he wouldn't teach me how to become an immortal.
Now that I follow Ajiu, things are different. He taught me how to become an immortal, and I became an immortal in no time. Now that the Black Mountain Patriarch is dead, do you want to follow Ajiu too?"
The little peach tree said without hesitation: "Yes, yes, I want to become an immortal too."
This kind of tree demon is the easiest to kidnap.
Chen Jiu immediately said sternly: "I can help you become an immortal, but you must not betray me in the future. If you betray me, your fate will be like that of the Black Mountain Patriarch, where both your body and soul will be destroyed."
The little peach tree shook its head and said, "How could I betray you? As long as you can help me become an immortal, I will follow you wholeheartedly."
This is actually very simple.
Because these tree demons are not ghost kings but demon kings, he can just give them the initiation directly.
Chen Jiu raised his hand and pressed it against the tree trunk, saying majestically: "Now, guide my consciousness to your tree core, and I will help you become an immortal."
Xiao Taoshu immediately and obediently guided his consciousness into the core of the tree.
Chen Jiu just thought about it for a moment, then frantically injected the demonic energy into the core of the tree, forming a huge vortex.
After a while, the small peach tree trembled all over, and then there was a "buzz" sound, and a shock wave spread out. The dead branches of the small peach tree instantly turned dark green, and countless small branches and dark green leaves popped out. She grew dozens of feet tall in a flash.
“Hahahaha, I became an immortal, I really became an immortal, ahahahahaha.”
The little peach tree began to tremble as if it was having a seizure.
Seeing this, the old peach tree quickly patted her trunk and said, "Alright, alright, we still have to go find the other sisters. Do you know how many sisters the Black Mountain Old Demon brought with him this time?"
The little peach tree answered without hesitation, "I know. There is another peach tree sister and two pear tree sisters."
It seems that peach trees and pear trees are suitable for making medicine cauldrons. The Black Mountain Old Demon has collected only peach tree spirits and pear tree spirits.
After they accepted the first small peach tree, everything became easy. The next three were lured over with just a few words.
Chen Jiu did not hesitate to inject a large amount of demon energy into them to help them break through to the demon fairy realm. In fact, these tree monsters were already at the peak of demon king level, they just didn't know how to break through to the demon fairy realm.
Although Chen Jiu seemed to have exerted great effort, he actually did not consume much demonic energy. If the huge demonic energy in the Black Mountain Old Demon's body was counted, he still made a huge profit.
The four tree demons had no idea of this. They only knew that it was Chen Jiu who helped them become immortals. They were so grateful to Chen Jiu and obeyed his every word.
This time, Chen Jiu had four more loyal brothers or sisters, and also obtained tens of thousands of bat soldiers and a large number of blood soul pills.
As for their names, they were given by the old peach tree. They are called Ertao, Santao, Dali and Xiaoli respectively.
This name is so rustic, but the four little sisters are so happy.
Chen Jiu was busy for a while before returning to Wudu City.
He directly pulled the five tree demon sisters out of the demon power space and said with a smile: "Lao Tao, are you going to settle down here with the four little sisters, or come and live in my fairy palace?"
The old peach tree said without hesitation: "I'd better stay here with my four sisters. Xiaotian is a dull girl and not fun at all."
Just right.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly, then waved his hand and said, "Okay, you should stay in the old place. Ertao, Sandao, Dali and Xiaoli, you should stay in the four corners outside the city. It won't be too crowded and it will be convenient for you to chat."
"Okay, okay."
The five tree monsters immediately spread out their huge tree legs and ran to take root.
Seeing that they had all taken root, Chen Jiu released Zhang Shixin, Zhang Qian, Luo Li and others from the Immortal Palace.
Zhang Qian looked up and found something was wrong. She was quite surprised and asked, "Hey, why is there a tree demon outside the city?"
Chen Jiu said proudly: "These are brought by the Black Mountain Patriarch. I have subdued them all. From now on, they are our own people. They also brought tens of thousands of bat soldiers. Now we have more than 20,000 bat soldiers."
More than 20,000 bat soldiers!
Zhang Shixin heard this and said solemnly, "Ajiu, can we consider taking over the underworld?"
Seize the underworld!
Chen Jiu said cautiously: "There are many true gods in the underworld, and I can only withstand one at most now."
Zhang Shixin said confidently: "There is only one true god in the east, the Eastern Ghost Emperor. Your current cultivation is probably higher than his, so it should be no problem to suppress him. Moreover, the 30,000 troops he mobilized last time were already the limit. Now he probably can't even gather 10,000 troops, and we have more than 50,000 troops.
Besides, we don’t want to take over all of Bei Yinsi’s territory in one fell swoop. We only need to take over the hundreds of miles around Daishan first. There is the Wangchuan River there. By then, Bei Yinsi will be afraid to attack us with all their strength.”
Chen Jiu suddenly realized what was going on and said, "You mean, we take Wangchuan and build a city there?"
Zhang Shixin nodded slightly and said, "Yes, as long as we build a city in Wangchuan, no matter how powerful the true gods of the Northern Yin Division are, they will not dare to attack with all their strength. If they destroy the barrier of Wangchuan, the Yin and Yang worlds will be in chaos."
The water of the River of Forgetfulness is used to cook Meng Po soup. Without the water of the River of Forgetfulness, Meng Po soup cannot be cooked. Without Meng Po soup, ghosts cannot be reincarnated, and the six realms of reincarnation will be in chaos!
No matter how powerful the true god of the Northern Underworld is, he would never dare to attack the city in the Forgotten River with all his strength. This is indeed a good idea.
