Chapter 431 Entering the Netherworld! Yama, the King of Hell?
After hearing what Zhao Gongming said, Chen Changsheng was taken aback.
"The Heaven-Opening Axe?"
"Xingtian!"
Chen Changsheng was taken aback. He was extremely familiar with Xing Tian.
Looking back, when he was climbing the ruins of Buzhou Mountain, he entered a secret realm.
After some investigation, they discovered that the head of the God of War, Xing Tian, was sealed within that secret realm.
Then, Xing Tian's battle intent manifested.
He passed on the legacy of the Great Witch Hou Yi to Hou Xin, a descendant of the human witch who was with Chen Changsheng.
As for Chen Changsheng, Xing Tian's battle intent incarnation gave him a drop of Xing Tian's essence blood.
He also asked Chen Changsheng to help him find his lost body.
Later, during a treasure hunt at the bottom of the Western Sea, Chen Changsheng unexpectedly discovered another sealed place.
Within that sealed land, Xing Tian's body was clearly sealed away.
After finding Xing Tian's body, Chen Changsheng also fulfilled his promise to Xing Tian's battle spirit incarnation and took the body back to the Buzhou Mountain ruins.
Xing Tian's head and body were reunited, and he was resurrected and returned.
This matter initially attracted the attention and caused quite a stir among the powerful beings in the world.
Later, the goddess Pingxin of the underworld intervened and took Xingtian away from the ruins of Buzhou Mountain and into the Netherworld.
"Master naturally knows about Xing Tian's resurrection."
"And I was right next to the God of War, Xing Tian, at that time."
"His mention of the Heaven-Opening Axe at this moment was actually to give me some pointers."
Chen Changsheng's mind raced.
After a moment's thought, he quickly snapped out of his reverie and turned his gaze toward Zhao Gongming:
"Thank you for your guidance, Master."
"I have already figured out a way to deal with the Heaven-Opening Axe."
As he spoke, Chen Changsheng quickly bowed to Zhao Gongming.
"Ha ha!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Gongming burst into laughter:
"Very well, now that you understand, my disciple, go and do what you wish to do!"
"I must continue my seclusion here to refine the sage energy given to me by my master."
Having said that, Zhao Gongming didn't linger. In a flash, he disappeared from the spot.
After Zhao Gongming left, Chen Changsheng took a deep breath, then turned his gaze and looked in the direction of the Netherworld.
"Looks like I'll have to make a trip to the underworld!"
Thinking it over, a resolute look flashed in Chen Changsheng's eyes.
Without further ado, he immediately set off for the Netherworld.
……
Soon, Chen Changsheng arrived at the underworld.
This underworld exists independently outside the primordial world.
A chilling wind blew, and ghostly wails echoed through the air, creating an extremely eerie atmosphere!
Of course, for Chen Changsheng, who had already reached the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, this was nothing to be afraid of.
Chen Changsheng continued on his way, and before long, a city suddenly appeared before him.
A large sign hung on the city gate, bearing the seven large golden characters "Gate of the Underworld".
"Oh?"
"Is this the gates of hell?"
"The place where the realms of Yin and Yang meet."
Chen Changsheng muttered to himself, looking quite interested.
After all, this was his first time visiting this Netherworld.
After a brief look around, Chen Changsheng composed himself and prepared to step inside.
Just then, a shout suddenly came from within the gates of hell:
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng stopped in his tracks and looked in the direction of the sound.
Upon closer inspection, several ghost messengers appeared from within the Gates of Hell.
The ghost messengers held knives and spears, and chains, which rattled and clanged.
"A ghost messenger?"
"It doesn't look... scary at all."
Chen Changsheng looked at the ghost messengers with curiosity.
Before he could even react, the leading ghost guard glared at Chen Changsheng with a ferocious expression and said irritably:
"This is a forbidden area of the underworld; no living person may enter!"
"Where did this mortal come from? Get out of here at once, or don't blame us for being impolite!"
After saying this, the ghost messenger immediately revealed a fierce expression, and a chilling aura of the underworld emanated from his body.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng remained calm, clearly not taking a mere few ghost messengers seriously.
"boom!"
The next moment, without saying a word, a terrifying aura suddenly burst forth from his body.
Although this aura was only a trace, it was like Mount Tai pressing down, instantly forcing the ghost messengers to their knees, trembling in fear!
"What?"
"A...a Great Luo Golden Immortal?"
Sensing the terrifying pressure emanating from Chen Changsheng, the ghost messengers were terrified and kowtowed repeatedly.
"That scoundrel is blind to talent!"
"Immortal, spare me! Immortal, spare me!"
"I was unaware that a celestial being had descended to the underworld; please forgive me!"
"..."
The ghost messengers trembled with fear.
At first glance, they could only tell that Chen Changsheng was of human origin, and they could not sense any immortal aura on him at all.
Who would have thought that Chen Changsheng was actually a Great Luo Golden Immortal?
You must understand that in the current primordial era, a Great Luo Golden Immortal is already considered a top-tier existence. How could they, as minor ghost messengers on duty in the local area, possibly afford to offend them?
Seeing the ghost messengers kowtowing repeatedly, Chen Changsheng remained calm and waved his wide sleeves, thus removing the powerful pressure that had been placed on them.
"I am Chen Changsheng, a disciple of Zhao Gongming of the Jie Sect. I have come to the Netherworld to find Xing Tian."
"Lead the way!"
As soon as Chen Changsheng uttered these words, the ghost messengers were even more shocked, and they were all speechless with astonishment.
"what?"
"A disciple of Zhao Gongming?"
"Disciples of the Jie Sect!"
"That's a family of saints!"
"Looking for...Xing Tian?"
The ghost messengers were secretly astonished, their minds shaken, and they could not calm down for a long time. They never expected that the human being in front of them had such an identity and background.
"Um?"
Seeing that the ghost messengers looked bewildered and remained motionless for a long time, Chen Changsheng frowned slightly and said in a deep voice:
"What's wrong?"
"Didn't you all hear me?"
Upon hearing this, the ghost messengers snapped out of their shock. The leader of the ghost messengers quickly adopted a respectful posture and fawned over them:
"Immortal...please!"
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng remained calm and, without hesitation, stepped into the Gates of Hell.
Next, led by the ghost messenger in charge, they arrived at the outside of a palace.
"Immortal, please come in!"
Chen Changsheng nodded slightly, not thinking much of it, and walked straight into the hall.
At this moment, a person was sitting in the main seat in the hall.
This person wore a crown with twelve tassels, each made of dark jade from the netherworld, hanging down in front of his forehead.
As the tassels swayed gently, the person's face appeared and disappeared.
Beneath that crown was a square face, with distinct features and sharp angles like those carved by a knife and axe.
In addition, this person's skin color was neither the rosy glow of a living person nor the deathly pallor of a dead person, but a bluish-jade color that was somewhere in between.
It is a color that has settled out after being tainted by the Yin energy of the Nine Netherworlds for countless years, exuding a faint chill.
"Could it be the King of Hell?"
Upon seeing this person, Chen Changsheng was slightly surprised, and a thought arose in his mind.
