73: Chapter arrives at the underworld! So beautiful, my family!
"Seeking death!"
Terrifying curses, imbued with endless black sandstorms, landed on the gigantic monster with a jackal body and dragon head!
— 45.3 billion!
— 36.2 billion!
"It took such high damage and didn't die!"
This made Lin Mo very happy; it must be another Immortal Corpse King.
It must be said that monsters from the Underworld, at the same cultivation level, have higher attributes, are tougher, more resilient, and deal more damage.
He activated the Eye of the God of Death to inspect the opponent's attributes:
【Anomaly Name: Ya Zi】
【Realm: Immortal Corpse King】
【Level: LV700】
【Strength: 35.5 billion】
【Agility: 87.7 billion】
【Spirit: 12.82 million】
【Health: 230 billion】
【Skills: Vengeful, Nine Sons of the Dragon, Earth Demon Evil Dragon, Endless Dragon Breath】
【Description: The nine sons of the dragon are all different, and those with bad conduct were imprisoned in the Underworld.】
No wonder it looked so familiar; it turns out to be the legendary demon Ya Zi.
Although its attributes are heaven-defying, my four Immortal Corpse Kings have also had their attributes enhanced.
I'm not afraid at all!
After being hit twice, Ya Zi lost nearly 100 billion Health.
It was completely flustered!
It didn't expect this person from the heavens to be so powerful!
Controlling the four Corpse Kings could actually sweep through this place.
So, the vengeful Ya Zi, with a crying voice, said:
"Don't, don't kill me..."
Lin Mo smiled.
"You petty thing, if I believed you, I wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully!"
"Kill!"
And just then.
A glimmer of light emanated from Ya Zi's hand.
This light was the same as when Lin Mo received his Black Abyss reward.
【Black Abyss: Exchange successful "Dragon Rock Mountain"】
"Hmm?"
"You entered the Black Abyss; you are an invader! And we get point rewards for eliminating invaders!"
"Lin Mo! Let your head stay on your neck for a while longer!"
"I'll deal with you later!"
After Ya Zi finished speaking.
The "Dragon Rock Mountain" continuously expanded.
Amidst the gushing lava, a huge volcano appeared.
"Where do you think you're going!"
The Yellow Springs Emperor immediately released Yellow Springs Water to intercept it.
Instantly, it formed black obsidian crystals with the lava spewing from the "Dragon Rock Mountain."
Ya Zi didn't hesitate.
It unhesitatingly burrowed into it, and the lava from the volcano enveloped it.
The Jingjue Emperor immediately tried to bury the volcano with sand and earth, but the rising lava solidified the sand into high-temperature glass... — 99.99 million... 99.99 million... 99.99 million... Himiko tried to cleave it, but she would take burning damage upon getting close.
"It's a waste of effort; as defenders of the Black Abyss, we all have our methods. This item was obtained by slaughtering countless mortals who wanted to enter the Black Abyss to explore the truth!"
"You can't break in! Its attributes are 100 times my own!"
Lin Mo also stopped, a little speechless.
Since you are a guardian, shouldn't you win by expelling invaders?
Instead, you're gloating about saving your own skin.
It's a bit contradictory.
He called out Zhan Hongchen.
"What's wrong? Did you encounter an insurmountable obstacle?"
Zhan Hongchen stretched, looking like she had just woken up.
She rubbed her eyes.
"Ah!!!"
"Here! This is actually three thousand feet below the Underworld!"
"How did you get here, kid!?"
"When I underwent my tribulation, I took this path and barely made it out alive! You're really reckless!"
Even Zhan Hongchen, who had already achieved Ascension, couldn't help but show a shocked expression.
"Stop talking nonsense, help me cut open that volcanic shell."
"I don't really recommend it, because this isn't the surface. The effects of Myriad Sword Art and One Sword to Open the Heavenly Gate will be reduced, and they consume a lot of energy. After one use, the second use will have a very long cooldown."
Zhan Hongchen spoke very seriously.
Her expression was also solemn.
But her hands were not idle, rummaging through Lin Mo's body like a thief.
Lin Mo grabbed her braid.
"Ow, ow, ow!"
"What are you messing with!?"
"Of course, I'm looking for the lollipops you're carrying to eat."
"Get lost, it's this kind of time now, what lollipops are you eating? Eat them later when we're out!"
Since he couldn't deal with Ya Zi for a while.
Lin Mo simply descended directly to three thousand feet below the Underworld.
Without Ya Zi's entanglement.
The descent was very smooth.
In less than 10 minutes, he had already arrived three thousand feet below the Underworld.
It was vast and eerie here, filled with ghostly aura.
In the distance, there was a stone tablet with "Road to the Underworld" written on it... "Could it be that I've arrived at the Underworld?"
Lin Mo wasn't here to see King Yama, so he wasn't concerned about this.
【Black Abyss: You have descended three thousand feet below the Black Abyss】
【Black Abyss: Rewards are now being distributed, choose 1 out of 2】
【Option One: Increase all your Ghost Servants' Health attributes by 100%】
【Option Two: Increase your own Health attributes by 100%】
It was still the same two options as before.
Lin Mo still chose to increase the Health of his Ghost Servants.
【You have obtained the Body of the God of Death, acquiring the 'Living Being Decree' which consumes ten times your own lifespan to resurrect the dead, with a cooldown of 7 days】
【You have already obtained: 'Eye of the God of Death', 'Hand of the God of Death', 'Body of the God of Death'】
【The three merge...】
【Merge successful: 'Shadow of the God of Death'】
【Shadow of the God of Death】
【Realm: Ascension】
【Wearing Requirement: LV0】
【Wearing Slot: None】
【Attached Skills: Power of the God of Death (Passive), Lifespan Seizure, Eye of the God of Death, Living Being Decree】
【Power of the God of Death: Enhances the power of Ghost Servants, can concentrate the power of each Ghost Servant into one place, causing explosive damage. Activation condition (Five Ghosts Surrounding)】
【Shadow of the God of Death: Congratulations on successfully passing King Yama's trial and achieving Ascension】
"King Yama's trial?"
Lin Mo was somewhat exasperated.
It seems that the King Yama and judges in the human world are just playing games for fun, while the real King Yama is something else.
He equipped the Shadow of the God of Death.
Buzz—
The shadow beneath Lin Mo's feet suddenly twisted and surged!
The originally blurry shadow condensed into the outline of a pitch-black scythe, with crimson blood beads dripping from its tip.
A black-robed phantom fluttered behind him.
Eighteen bone spikes pierced the sky from his spine, and the ghostly winds within a ten-mile radius of the Underworld let out the wails of kneeling vengeful spirits!
With so many changes, Lin Mo couldn't help but sigh.
Once upon a time, he was so afraid of ghosts.
Whenever ghosts were mentioned, his hands would involuntarily tremble.
And now, he himself had become a ghost.
Therefore, he was already immune to ghosts... It felt like, if you can't beat them, join them... On the other side.
2600 feet above the Underworld.
The core of "Dragon Rock Mountain."
"Breakthrough!"
"The ninety-nine thousand nine hundred ninety-ninth tribulation!"
"Shedding scales to become a dragon! A true dragon!"
The lava pool suddenly erupted with a pillar of fire!
Ya Zi's tattered jackal body cracked inch by inch, and golden-red dragon blood gushed from the cracks.
"It broke through, it broke through! The Immortal Corpse King realm, promoted to Earth Immortal · True Dragon species!"
"Lin Mo!"
Ya Zi's dragon claws tore open a spatial rift, and molten rock solidified into blood-colored battle armor on its scales, "I will have my vengeance for the grudge just now!!"
