"Juniors must obey the instructions of seniors and obey them."
The golden elixir ghost cultivator said hurriedly.
"Get up. What's your name?"
Qin Wang spoke slowly.
"The junior's name is Bai Xiaowen..."
Bai Xiaowen answered carefully.
After some questioning, Qin Wang finally had a general understanding and understanding of the underworld.
In the underworld, there are generally two ways for ghost cultivators to improve their cultivation. The first is to devour other ghost cultivators to strengthen themselves, and the second is to absorb the Yin spirit energy in the Yin spirit stone.
The Yin Spirit Stone is equivalent to the spirit stone in the human world, except that the energy contained in it is Yin Spirit Qi. This Yin Spirit Qi can help ghost cultivators practice.
But ghost cultivators cannot directly absorb the Yin Qi and Death Qi of the underworld.
This surprised Qin Wang.
Normal ghost cultivators cannot absorb Yin Qi and Death Qi, so why can the five ghosts in the Soul Gathering Bowl absorb it? Could it be said that the Five Ghosts are stronger than ordinary ghost cultivators?
Qin Wang did not continue to delve deeper.
There is another extremely important information, that is, in the wild, you can devour other ghost cultivators without restraint, but in the city, you are absolutely not allowed to devour ghost cultivators.
This is not a restriction by the rules of heaven and earth, but a common acquiescence rule by other monks in the city.
Without this default criterion, the entire underworld would become a place of massacre, with no rules to speak of. Without rules, it would mean decline and decline, and eventually it would cease to exist.
“Where is the nearest large city here?”
Qin Wang asked directly.
“It’s over there, about a thousand miles away.”
Bai Xiaowen pointed in a direction and answered.
"Very good. You lead the way."
Qin Wang said calmly.
“Yes, senior.”
Bai Xiaowen secretly breathed a sigh of relief and led the way.
As long as Qin Wang doesn't devour him, let alone lead the way, he is willing to hand over all the magic weapons he has on him even if he is asked for them.
Under the leadership of Bai Xiaowen, Qin Wang soon arrived in front of a city.
The city in front of us has a towering wall, which is a hundred feet long.
The city is square. Standing at the city gate and looking to the left and right, you can't see the end of the city wall at all, as if it is connected to the sky and the earth.
Qin Wang released his spiritual consciousness, scanned around and found that the wall on the city gate alone was a hundred miles long.
Such a huge city has never been seen in the world.
At least Qin Wang has never seen it.
If you think about it carefully, it’s normal.
After all, the place where the underworld restricts and devours the weak is the city.
If the city area is too small, it means that the safe zone is too small. Wouldn’t it mean that many ghost cultivators have no living space and will be swallowed up?
Qin Wang looked at the two big characters above the city gate.
Fengdu.
When entering the city gate, Qin Wang noticed that the city guards on both sides were just yawning. They did not charge any fees or conduct inspections, and seemed very casual.
However, when Qin Wang's spiritual consciousness swept over, he was surprised to find that the city guards guarding the city had at least a golden elixir cultivation level.
Most of the pedestrians coming and going in the city are ghost cultivators in the foundation building stage, and there are very few ghost cultivators in the Qi training stage.
If you think about it carefully, it’s normal.
If it was too weak, it would have been devoured by other ghost cultivators long ago.
Qin Wang walked around Fengdu Ghost Town and found nothing useful.
More importantly, he did not get any news about the inheritance of Houtu.
How to find Wanyan Meng?
The underworld is so vast, wouldn’t finding an unknown ghost cultivator be like finding a needle in a haystack?
Bai Xiaowen, who was leading the way, noticed Qin Wang's expression. He hesitated for a moment and quickly made a decision.
"Senior, what are you looking for?"
Bai Xiaowen asked cautiously.
"Well, I'm looking for a ghost cultivator."
Qin Wang said directly.
Anyway, it doesn't matter if you tell Bai Xiaowen if you are unfamiliar with the place.
"If the senior wants to find someone, the junior has a way."
Bai Xiaowen said with a smile.
"Speak directly, if you can satisfy me, it won't cost anything to reward you with a few Yin Spirit Stones."
Qin Wang looked at Bai Xiaowen with interest.
He knows that most ghost cultivators are selfish. If there is no benefit or it is not related to their own safety, they will never reveal too much information.
As for the Yin Ling Stone, Qin Wang doesn’t have it. At worst, he can just reward Bai Xiaowen with some unused magic weapons.
“Thank you, senior, thank you so much, senior.”
When Bai Xiaowen heard this, he couldn’t help himself with excitement.
It’s not his fault.
After all, the resources of the underworld are scarce. Even though he has a golden elixir cultivation level, the total number of Yin spirit stones on his body does not exceed ten.
"Go on, don't waste my time."
Qin Wang waved his hand impatiently.
"That's it. Senior can enter the Tower of Challenge. As long as you gain a certain height in the Tower of Challenge, your name will be known to the entire underworld. At that time, if you want to find someone, Isn’t it simple?”
Bai Xiaowen said with a smile.
“Challenge Tower?”
Qin Wang raised his eyebrows.
"Yes. In the center of the city, the dark tower is the Tower of Challenge. There are various ghosts inside. It is said that as long as you reach the highest 100th floor, you can obtain the inheritance of Houtu "
Bai Xiaowen said with some yearning.
Qin Wang was suddenly startled when he heard this.
"What did you just say? Houtu inheritance?"
Qin Wang stared at the other party with a serious face.
The Nether Tiger below seemed to be aware of Qin Wang's eagerness, and subconsciously released his momentum.
The coercion of the Nascent Soul stage almost scared Bai Xiaowen to the point of peeing. He was afraid that the Nether Tiger would swallow him directly.
Although it is said that you cannot devour them at will in the city, as long as you are not too arrogant, naturally no one will meddle in your own business.
“Yes, yes.”
Bai Xiaowen nodded hurriedly.
"What's going on with this Houtu inheritance? Please tell me carefully."
Qin Wang said in a deep voice.
“Senior, don’t you know the inheritance of Houtu?”
Bai Xiaowen asked subconsciously.
“Huh?”
Qin Wang narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Bai Xiaowen unkindly.
Bai Xiaowen immediately realized that he had made a big mistake in asking him just now. It was obvious that this senior was not a ghost cultivator from the underworld.
“Empress Houtu is in charge of reincarnation in the underworld, but since the ancient war, reincarnation has been broken, and the underworld and the human world have been completely cut off, making it impossible to communicate. Because of this, the order of the underworld is so chaotic. It is said that in the past, the underworld was Everyone can practice with peace of mind without worrying about being swallowed up."
Bai Xiaowen said hurriedly.
Qin Wang was thoughtful when he heard this.
The so-called ancient war should be the war in the murals of the Wu Clan's Ancestral Hall, which is also the war of all spirits.
From this point of view, the ancient witch clan was so powerful that it could even occupy the entire underworld and communicate with the human world.
Which clan defeated such a powerful Wu clan? To end up in this situation?
Human race?
Shouldn’t be possible.
The human race’s sphere of influence is only limited to Kyushu. What's more, there are other races coexisting in Kyushu, and the human race is just stronger.
Thinking of this, Qin Wang sighed secretly.
In the end, it’s still not strong enough.
Qin Wang did not continue to delve into the matter of the War of All Spirits.
After all, with his current strength, he is still unable to participate.
Wait until your cultivation is advanced before you consider it.
After Qin Wang asked Bai Xiaowen some details about the Tower of Challenge, he casually took out a ghost cultivation magic weapon and threw it to Bai Xiaowen.
Bai Xiaowen took the magic weapon and was stunned.
This is a magic weapon that can be used in the golden elixir stage!
It's pitiful for Tian Jian. Even though he is now a ghost cultivator in the golden elixir stage, he only has a magic weapon used by monks in the Qi training stage. This is also the most valuable item in his body.
Now that he has obtained this ghost cultivating magic weapon, the first thing Bai Xiaowen thinks of is not to sell it in exchange for the Yin Spirit Stone, but to leave the city. As long as you find a lonely ghost cultivator, you can use this ghost cultivator's magic weapon to defeat the opponent and then devour it.
“Thank you, senior, thank you very much, senior.”
Bai Xiaowen thanked Qin Wang repeatedly, and then happily left with the magic weapon, for fear that Qin Wang would return.
To Qin Wang, this magic weapon is no different from trash.
Such a piece of trash can be regarded as a treasure by the other party.
I have to say that life in the underworld is really hard.
Qin Wang sighed secretly and headed towards the center of Fengdu Ghost City.
He rode the Nether Tiger and galloped all the way.
Soon, Qin Wang saw the Tower of Challenge located in the center of Fengdu Ghost City.
There are a hundred floors, each floor is ten feet high, which is a thousand feet.
Such a tall tower sinks directly into the clouds and cannot reach the top.
Qin Wang came to the Tower of Challenge and found that the door was very busy with people coming and going.
Obviously, these are ghost cultivators who came to challenge.
Only to enter the challenge, you need to pay one thousand Yin Spirit Stones as a fee.
Qin Wang didn’t have Yin Lingshi, so he used magic weapons to make up for it.
The guard responsible for guarding the tower was very happy about this.
In the underworld, magic weapons are more valuable than Yin Spirit Stones.
Qin Wang entered the Tower of Challenge and soon reached the first floor.
The first level is just some skeleton soldiers, which is the strength of the first level during the Qi training period.
Qin Wang patted the Nether Tiger on the head.
The Nether Tiger roared and blew out a blast of energy from its nostrils, directly destroying these skeleton soldiers.
After the skeleton soldiers are destroyed, a portal appears.
As long as you enter the portal, you can go to the second floor to challenge.
At this moment, Qin Wang noticed something strange in the Soul Gathering Bowl.
He took out the Soul Gathering Bowl and examined the Soul Gathering Bowl carefully.
The five ghosts in the Soul Gathering Bowl are very quiet.
But!
The entire Soul Gathering Bowl glowed faintly, seeming to be very interested in the skeleton soldiers in front of it.
Could it be that...the Soul Gathering Bowl wants to devour the remains of these skeleton soldiers?
Qin Wang hesitated for a moment, and finally activated the soul-gathering bowl and sucked the remains of the skeleton soldiers into the bowl.
Phew!
All the skeleton residue formed a whirlwind and was swallowed by the Soul Gathering Bowl.
Buzz! ! !
The Soul Gathering Bowl vibrated directly.
With such a change, it is obvious that the seventh level of restrictions on the Soul Gathering Bowl has been released!
Originally Qin Wang thought that he would have to wait until the five ghosts devoured a sufficient amount of the soul of the True Monarch to be able to unlock the seventh level of the Soul Gathering Bowl.
Unexpectedly, the Soul Gathering Bowl has now directly unlocked the seventh level of restrictions.
[The seventh level of restrictions is unlocked, you can swallow ghosts from the underworld and expand your legion. 】
Qin Wang was greatly surprised when he saw such information.
In other words, as long as you kill the ghosts in the underworld, you can use the soul gathering bowl to devour them and replenish them to become his legion.
One person is a thousand troops!
Qin Wang took a closer look at the remains of the skeleton that the Soul Gathering Bowl had just swallowed.
On the first level, the challenge is a hundred skeleton soldiers at the first level of Qi training. After being killed and then devoured using the Soul Gathering Bowl, only ten skeleton soldiers with the first level of Qi training appeared in the Soul Gathering Bowl.
From this point of view, the devouring effect of the Soul Gathering Bowl is to reduce the quantity to one-tenth, without changing the quality.
Qin Wang nodded secretly.
On the second floor of the Challenge Tower, there are one hundred skeleton soldiers on the second floor of Qi Training.
After these skeleton soldiers were killed, Qin Wang used the Soul Gathering Bowl to absorb the skeleton residue and obtained ten skeleton soldiers at the second level of Qi training.
Next is the third, fourth, and fifth floors of the Challenge Tower...
Finally, we reach the eleventh floor of the Challenge Tower.
Qin Wang encountered the second kind of ghost in the underworld, the ghost.
Although the ghosts in the early stages of construction are not strong, they are very numerous, still one hundred.
Faced with these one hundred ghosts, the Nether Tiger waved his claws and destroyed these one hundred ghosts with one claw.
Qin Wang used the Soul Gathering Bowl to absorb these ghosts and soon got ten ghosts in the early stage of foundation building.
Next is the twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth floor of the Challenge Tower...
Finally, Qin Wang reached the fifteenth floor.
Here are a hundred tauren.
The cultivation of these tauren has reached the early stage of the Golden Core, and they also have weapons such as swords and shields in their hands.
The Nether Tiger roared, rushed into the tauren, and bit wildly.
Although the tauren were numerous in number, their cultivation was low, and they were all killed by the Netherworld Tiger in as little as a cup of tea.
Qin Wang used the Soul Gathering Bowl to absorb the bodies of the minotaurs and got ten minotaurs.
“A bull’s head appeared, could it be a horse’s face next?”
Qin Wang was a little curious.
It was just as he guessed.
On the sixteenth floor are one hundred horse-faced men.
These horse-faced men are armed with staffs. They are not dressed as warriors like the tauren, but focus on spell attacks.
The Nether Tiger attacked angrily and killed all the hundred horse-faced men, and then Qin Wang used the soul-gathering bowl to absorb and devour them.
………………………………
Tower of Challenge.
The entrance on the first floor was already overcrowded at this time.
It is not because there are too many ghost cultivators who come to challenge, but because these ghost cultivators are protesting.
“What’s going on? Why have the skeleton soldiers on the first floor disappeared?”
“Not only the skeleton soldiers on the first floor, but also the skeleton soldiers on the second floor have disappeared!”
“Damn it, I originally wanted to enter the ninth floor to temper myself, but when I came to the ninth floor, it was empty and there was nothing!”
“What the hell is this? What's going on?"
"Is the Tower of Challenge broken?"
"Return our Yin Spirit Stone!"
Many Ghost Cultivators All protesting.
At this moment, a loud shout came.
“Shut up, everyone!”
Boom! ! !
A terrifying pressure came, which was the pressure of ghost cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage.
Immediately shut up those ghost cultivators who were clamoring for the return of the Yin Spirit Stone.
Most of them are ghost cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage and Golden Core stage, so naturally they don’t dare to compete with the ghost cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage.
The Nascent Soul stage ghost cultivator looked around.
“Our Yama family has been guarding the Challenge Tower for tens of thousands of years, and this is the first time we have encountered this situation. Please be patient, and we will make it public after the investigation is clear. Now, everyone People leave the Tower of Challenge! If there are still people staying in the Tower of Challenge within a quarter of an hour, don’t blame me, the Yama family, for going on a killing spree!" (End of Chapter)
