Chapter 513, Human Identity Exposed
Chapter 513, Human Identity Exposed
In the eastern part of the fifth realm of the Nine Netherworld, in front of the Styx Waterfall, the Nine Netherworld Soul Realm Key—the Netherfire Match—sat quietly in mid-air, emitting a cold, eerie glow.
Centered on the Netherfire Cake, powerful figures from various races of the Nine Netherworlds spread out in a fan shape, completely surrounding the area.
The air was still thick with the intense atmosphere of battle, and the surrounding atmosphere was tense and solemn.
In this tense, deathly silence, all the eyes of the creatures of the Nine Netherworld were fixed on the man and the deer who were calmly walking towards the waterfall.
After safely and smoothly traversing that suffocating battlefield on the deer's back, Hua Changxi's tense emotions finally eased slightly.
She had been so focused on being on guard and ready to fight that she had no time to think about anything else. Now, she could finally spare some energy to observe the various forces in the Nine Netherworld.
Upon seeing this, his pupils constricted, and a look of astonishment and shock flashed across his eyes.
Good heavens! Looking around, every faction had human figures mixed in, some with two or three people, others with as many as seven or eight.
Are humans really that capable?
The Nine Netherworlds have been thoroughly permeated!
Ok?
Hua Changxi's gaze suddenly paused, sweeping over Lady White Bone, who was standing behind the Ghost Clan's camp.
However, the five people attending her had become five pure-blooded ghosts, no longer the five human cultivators at the Spirit Platform Realm she had seen before.
Those five people died?
Hua Changxi quickly shifted his gaze. Since they had chosen to enter the heart of the Nine Netherworld, those five must have been prepared for death and annihilation.
When her gaze turned to the various races of the Nine Netherworlds, her eyelids twitched suddenly.
In addition to the Ghost King, the Ghost Clan also has more than a dozen Ghost Generals.
The Lord of the Underworld and Lady of the Other Shore Flower stood side by side, their auras no weaker than that of the Ghost King.
Although the demon race did not send any King-level experts, everyone present was a Demon Commander-level expert.
The Blood Sea Clan's strength is roughly equivalent to that of the Demon Clan.
The Soul Clan has the smallest population and the weakest aura, but Hua Changxi, who has read the "Soul Codex," knows that they are not without the ability to protect themselves.
Hua Changxi had encountered these five major forces before, and quickly glanced over them before turning his attention to the other scattered clans.
When she saw two striking figures, one in black and one in white, amidst the crowd, her pupils widened suddenly.
Are those Black and White Impermanence?
Not far from the two figures stood an old woman with a hunched back, holding a long wooden spoon.
Could that be the legendary Meng Po?
Black and White Impermanence belong to Youdu City, while Meng Po is a person from the Samsara Palace.
Very good, all the major forces of the Nine Netherworld have arrived.
The next moment, Hua Changxi's gaze fell on the dark blue ball of light floating in mid-air.
What exactly is this thing that has attracted so many powerful forces in the Nine Netherworlds to fight over it?
Should she try to grab it too?
Hua Changxi glanced at the Netherworld Deer beneath her, then at the approaching Styx Waterfall.
The Netherworld Deer is very fast, but it's unknown whether it can outrun the powerful beings of the Nine Netherworlds.
Just as Hua Changxi was secretly observing the various forces in the Nine Netherworlds, the various forces in the Nine Netherworlds were also observing her.
At first, their attention was focused on the Netherworld Deer, but once the Soul Ballad started playing, their main focus shifted to Hua Changxi.
Especially since the Netherworld Deer was willing to carry her and walk on air, everyone became even more curious about her.
The Netherworld Deer is the most arrogant creature in the Nine Netherworlds, without exception.
Attracting the Netherworld Deer to appear is already the limit for many creatures in the Netherworld; having it carry them around is something they've almost never even considered.
'Is the Soul Clan about to produce a Venerable Realm expert?'
The various forces of the Nine Netherworlds began exchanging silent glances, their eyes subtly sweeping towards the location of the Soul Clan.
The Soul Clan was both bewildered and conflicted at this moment.
To their bewilderment, even though they were considered geniuses of the Soul Clan, they had never heard of a female cultivator in the Soul Clan who could play soul-soothing melodies and summon Netherworld Deer.
The dilemma is, since that person is a member of the Soul Clan, could we ask her to help the Soul Clan seize the key to the Nine Nether Soul Realm?
Behind Lady White Bone, Chu Junyi and the other four were also communicating with each other using their divine senses.
"This is truly an eye-opening experience; I even saw the legendary Netherworld Deer."
“It would be better not to see it at all. The Netherworld Deer is a Dao Envoy of the Nine Netherworlds. It only befriends those who have ‘walked the Netherworld Path.’ Its appearance means that the Nine Netherworlds are very likely to produce a Dao Lord.”
"That can't be right. Jiuyou doesn't even have a single Emperor Realm expert yet."
"It's not necessarily true that it doesn't exist; perhaps we just don't know it."
On the other side, the Netherworld Deer had already carried Hua Changxi close to the mouth of the Styx Waterfall.
The roar of the waterfall was like a stampede of ten thousand horses, and the spray carried a biting chill, wetting Hua Changxi's fluttering clothes.
Hua Changxi kept glancing at the pale blue ball of light suspended in mid-air out of the corner of his eye, and the restlessness in his heart grew stronger and stronger.
As the Nether Deer leaped towards the waterfall, stepping on it and steadily swimming upstream, she took a deep breath, a resolute glint in her eyes.
"Hey~"
A long whip formed from soul power shot out from the sky, coiling around the ball of dark blue light with the precision of a serpent, and then snapped back!
It wasn't until the Nine Nether Soul Realm Key streaked across the sky like a meteor and fell into Hua Changxi's hands that the powerful figures of the Nine Netherworlds reacted. "Insolence!"
"court death!"
"Leave the ghost fire match behind!"
Ghost King Su Mingyue roared, and black mist around him surged, transforming into a ghostly hand that blotted out the sky, fiercely grabbing at the deer and the man.
The Lord of the Underworld and Lady of the Other Shore Flower also flashed, their terrifying auras, one yellow and one red, hurtling towards the Styx Waterfall like lightning.
Other forces also joined in.
However, it was too late.
The Netherworld Deer trod on the cascading Styx Waterfall with its four hooves as if walking on flat ground.
Unafraid of the chilling erosion of the Styx River, and unrestrained by the oppression of the Chongyuan Pass, it carried Hua Changxi and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.
"Boom!"
Su Mingyue's ghostly hand grasped at nothing, and was instead shattered inch by inch by the powerful force of the Styx Waterfall, turning into a sky full of black mist.
The Lord of the Underworld and Lady of the Other Shore Flower, who were following closely behind, were also a step behind. They could only stop at the mouth of the waterfall in a fit of anger, staring at the Styx Waterfall with their faces ashen.
Even for a powerful expert at the King Realm, not everyone can climb upstream on the Styx Waterfall.
A deathly silence fell once again before the Styx Falls.
Behind Lady White Bone, Chu Junyi and his four companions felt the shock, anger, and frustration permeating the air. They looked at each other, but also felt a sense of schadenfreude.
Despite fierce battles and bloodshed among the various forces of the Nine Netherworld, they failed to seize the Netherfire Match. Yet, it was easily taken away by a female cultivator from the Soul Clan who suddenly appeared, right in front of everyone, and she escaped unscathed.
This... is quite humiliating to all the powerful figures present.
"Soul Clan, you really are quite capable!"
The fury of the various forces in the Nine Netherworlds was instantly directed at the Soul Clan present.
The Soul Clan members were secretly delighted to see Hua Changxi steal the Netherfire Match, and they didn't care much about the attacks from the various forces.
Su Mingyue was furious. She didn't have much prestige in the Ghost Clan, otherwise she wouldn't have been unable to command Lady Chiyan before.
She originally intended to gain the support of various forces within the ghost clan by seizing the Netherfire Match, but unexpectedly, a calamity struck, ruining her grand plan.
Just as Su Mingyue was about to unleash her fury on the Soul Clan members present, the Nightmare Eater appeared.
"What about the humans and the Netherworld Deer?"
Ok?
All the forces in the Nine Netherworlds looked over.
Su Mingyue asked sternly, "What human race?"
The Nightmare Beast glanced at Su Mingyue, sensing her King-level aura, before replying, "The Netherworld Deer is carrying a human. Didn't any of you notice?"
Boom~
These words were like a thunderclap from the heavens, leaving the powerful figures of the Nine Netherworlds dizzy.
The Nightmare Beast glanced at the bewildered Lord of the Underworld and sneered, "You can't even recognize a human. What a waste."
In fact, if it hadn't heard the Soul Ballad, it wouldn't have been able to confirm that the Netherworld Deer was carrying the human from Soul Nightmare Valley.
The thought that it had not obtained the Netherworld Blade filled the Nightmare Beast with murderous intent. Damn humans, they tricked it out of ten Nine-Aperture Exquisite Soul Heart Fruits.
"That human stole ten of my Nine-Aperture Soul Heart Fruits. If any of you help me capture her, I will reward you handsomely."
Ten Nine-Aperture Exquisite Soul Heart Fruits!!!
These words once again shocked the powerful beings of the Nine Netherworld.
Upon hearing this, the Lord of the Underworld immediately retorted: "You are the one who is a piece of trash, having your home stolen by the human race."
The Nightmare Eater glared at him: "You want to fight?"
Lord of the Underworld: "Let's fight then, who's afraid of who?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Lord of the Underworld and the Nightmare Eater started fighting.
The various forces of the Nine Netherworlds quickly moved away, for these were two top-tier King Realm experts.
Chu Junyi and the other four followed Lady White Bone and retreated. Along the way, the five of them looked at each other and communicated with their divine senses.
"That Nightmare Beast must have made a mistake, right? How could the Netherworld Deer be carrying a human?"
"Yes, she clearly exudes the aura of the Soul Clan."
"Sigh, think about us, aren't we still covered in the aura of the demon race?"
"If that person is truly human, then he has truly trampled the faces of the Nine Netherworld experts into the ground."
"I want to know which human elder has emerged from seclusion? This is incredible!" (End of Chapter)
