204: Memories of past lives, sealed shackles

As these words were spoken, they stirred up an even greater commotion throughout the entire Nine Underworld City.

This was because the Nine Underworld Secret Realm was about to emerge.

Descendants of countless ancient factions descended upon this city one after another.

However, the Nine Underworld City Lords Mansion had always turned a blind eye to this.

They couldn't even be bothered to come out and welcome these ancient factions.

Even when Kong Wu Dao had previously ordered his men to kill Dragon Yang, creating such a huge stir throughout the Nine Underworld City.

The Nine Underworld City Lords Mansion hadn't sent a single guard to investigate.

Now that the matter had concluded.

The Old City Lord, who held the most noble status in the Nine Underworld City Lords Mansion, had actually appeared in person!

What made everyone's jaws drop even further was that he claimed to be specifically welcoming Kong Wu Dao!

Isn't this double standard a bit too extreme?

"This... hasn't the Old City Lord been reclusive for many years, focusing solely on breaking through to a higher Great Emperor Realm?"

"Back when the Nine Underworld City was struck by the Boundary Sea waves and the entire city was in imminent danger, the Old City Lord didn't even appear!"

"What is going on now? Why would he appear in person because of God Son Kong Wu Dao?"

The more they discussed it, the more difficult it became for the many Cultivators to suppress the shock in their hearts.

Such a phenomenon truly and completely overturned their worldview!

However, the Old City Lord paid no attention to the discussions of the Cultivators below.

As the oldest existence in the Nine Underworld City today, he was one of the few people who understood the full story of that event back then.

He naturally knew just how terrifying the power of the Space-Time Forbidden Zone was.

And since Kong Wu Dao was the God Son most valued by the Space-Time Forbidden Zone.

It was naturally necessary for him to come out of seclusion to receive him personally.

Kong Wu Dao, sitting atop the Heavenly Revelation Azure Dragon, smiled slightly: "Senior, there is no need for such formalities."

During the Destruction Era, he had also come to the edge of the Boundary Sea for training and had also stopped in the Nine Underworld City.

Back then, this Old City Lord had also received him.

He had even helped the Space-Time Forbidden Zone handle quite a few matters.

"After sleeping for a million years, God Son, you have become even more unfathomable."

Seeing that Kong Wu Dao's temperament was now even more extraordinary, the Old City Lord could not hide his expression of admiration.

What shocked him even more was that even though he was now a Fifth-Rank Great Emperor.

He was actually unable to gauge Kong Wu Dao's true strength.

There were several forces hidden on the other party that could be called taboo.

As long as he did not wish to reveal them.

Almost no one could see Kong Wu Dao's specific strength.

"God Son Kong Wu Dao must be weary from the journey; the palace has already been prepared for you, God Son."

"The Nine Underworld Secret Realm still needs some time before it opens. In the meantime, God Son, please feel free to stay in our City Lords Mansion."

As he finished speaking, the Old City Lord personally led the way for Kong Wu Dao.

The moment Kong Wu Dao arrived.

He had actually already sensed it.

But because Kong Wu Dao had a conflict with Dragon Yang of the Ancient True Dragon Clan.

He could not interfere casually and had to wait for the matter to conclude.

After all, this era was completely different now.

Countless ancient factions were awakening one after another.

Although their Nine Underworld City had been passed down for countless epochs.

But compared to these powerful ancient factions, their Nine Underworld City naturally had no comparability.

They could not afford to offend ancient factions like the Ancient True Dragon Clan.

They naturally could not afford to offend the Space-Time Forbidden Zone even more.

Getting involved in the collision of ancient factions would bring no benefit to their Nine Underworld City.

"Thank you, Senior." Kong Wu Dao nodded slightly, not caring about this at all.

Just as Kong Wu Dao followed the Old City Lord toward the Nine Underworld City Lords Mansion.

The System's voice suddenly rang out.

[Ding! Detected a special Destiny's Chosen suspected of binding to a System template, who has entered the vicinity of the Nine Underworld City territory. All have been marked for the Host!]

Hearing this, Kong Wu Dao immediately moved his thoughts and opened the specific System panel.

[Current Location of Destiny's Chosen: Nine Underworld Mountain Range]

[Name: Mo Xie]

[Identity: Transmigrator, Saint of the Netherworld Hall]

[Specific System template binding requires further analysis.]

A Transmigrator?

This piqued Kong Wu Dao's interest.

Come to think of it, he himself could also be considered a Transmigrator.

However, too much time had passed.

He had long since forgotten the memories of his past life.

He couldn't be blamed for having a bad memory.

It was because when he transmigrated, he was still just an embryo.

There was even a special shackle in his mind that sealed his original memories.

Whenever he tried to think about his past life, his Sea of Consciousness would uncontrollably throb with pain.

If it weren't for the System suddenly finding him.

He probably would have forgotten that he even had a past life.

"A Transmigrator from another world, and he also bound a System?"

"I wonder if I can use him to try and recover the memories of my past life?"

Everyone inevitably has curiosity.

Although he didn't dwell on his past life experiences.

He still wanted to know what world he had come from in his past life.

Why, when he clearly hadn't encountered a System before, did he know the meaning of the word 'System'?

This fusion of reality and illusion.

The confusion that prevented him from reaching the truth made Kong Wu Dao increasingly want to understand the truth of the matter.

...

Above an ancient and magnificent restaurant in the Nine Underworld City.

Several powerful auras.

But young Prodigies who clearly did not come from the same faction sat opposite each other, discussing the matter of Kong Wu Dao ordering the killing of Dragon Yang.

"It seems the Space-Time Forbidden Zone is our biggest opponent on this trip."

"Kong Wu Dao's own strength is incredibly powerful, and now the Imperial Children of the Space-Time Forbidden Zone are also strong in their own ways."

"If we want to obtain more Opportunity, we must first find a way to deal with the pressure from the Space-Time Forbidden Zone."

A man wearing golden armor with a powerful aura spoke first.

His name was Jun Moyu.

He was the Saint of the Myriad Demon Sect, with Void God Realm Ninth Level cultivation, and was very powerful.

"Yes! Kong Wu Dao's strength is too terrifying. A while ago, he had already successfully broken through to the God King."

"In terms of cultivation, he is already at the very forefront of the Prodigies of this era." Another woman with a powerful aura said with a bitter smile.

"Hehe... who said that only Kong Wu Dao has broken through to the God King?"

Soon, another Prodigy retorted.

"I heard that Wu Huang of the Ancient Dance Family, Chu Jingxian of the Nine Heavens God Sect, and Long Aoyu of the Ancient True Dragon Clan have all successively broken through to the God King!"

"Moreover, there is still some time before the Nine Underworld Secret Realm emerges, which is enough time for many powerful ancient Prodigies to break through to the God King during this period!"

"Furthermore, Kong Wu Dao's reputation is now overly prominent, which will inevitably attract the attention of these powerful ancient Prodigies."

"On this trip to the Nine Underworld Secret Realm, it is unlikely that Kong Wu Dao will be able to pass through it peacefully."

As these words were spoken, a look of agreement appeared in the eyes of the others.

Looking at the younger generation of the contemporary Myriad Domains of the Heavens.

Kong Wu Dao was undoubtedly the most prestigious one.

However, the ancient Prodigies who had also awakened from their slumber wanted to maximize their own prestige.

Defeating Kong Wu Dao and using him as a stepping stone was undoubtedly the simplest and most direct method.

The Nine Underworld Secret Realm was extraordinary.

It was said that it hid secrets related to the Boundary Sea.

Prodigies entering the Nine Underworld Secret Realm naturally did not want to miss it easily.

They could hardly hide their curiosity.

I wonder what kind of collision these terrifying Prodigies will have with Kong Wu Dao?
