I wield power with my innate talents, and forge the Heavenly Court.

After returning from the dead, Chongzhen and his entourage rested for a few days before attempting to enter the celestial realm or the underworld again.

Having already spent considerable time touring the celestial realm and witnessing its many sights and strange rules, Chongzhen chose the underworld this time.

Furthermore, since it was confirmed that there was no danger to his life, Zhu Cilang was not allowed to follow.

With a thought in his mind, the wristwatch on his wrist projected a light screen, and Chongzhen skillfully performed the operation.

A wisp of his mind split off and instantly disappeared into the light curtain.

Before my eyes, light swirled and the dazzling, distorted scene shifted rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, Chongzhen opened his eyes again. Before him was still his villa, but the sky outside had become extremely dark, even faintly tinged with blood.

The surroundings were empty and silent, utterly still.

"Hoo~!"

Emperor Chongzhen took a deep breath and tried to call out.

"Xiaoya!"

In the next instant, blood splattered in front of Chongzhen, and dark, eerie energy flowed around Xiaoya's figure.

She wore a red gauze dress that looked as if it were stained with blood, her long black hair was loose, and her two dark eyes were fixed on Chongzhen. Her face was blank and lifeless, but occasionally a fierce look would flash across it.

"gentlemen!"

The hollow sound echoed eerily in the empty living room, like the low murmur of a vengeful ghost.

At that moment, Chongzhen felt his hair stand on end, and a sense of horror welled up in his heart.

This truly lives up to its name as the underworld.

Xiaoya, the intelligent butler of the celestial realm, is ethereal and otherworldly, exuding an aura of immortality.

Xiaoya, the intelligent butler of the underworld, is eerie and gloomy, her entire body exuding an aura of death.

"Xiaoya, please explain the rules here to me."

"Yes, sir."

This is the projection of the Celestial Abode of the Star Realm into the Underworld.
"It is necessary to keep this place clean and tidy; littering is prohibited."

The introduction of Xiaoya from the Underworld is very similar to that of Xiaoya from the Immortal Realm; there is no difference between them.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at the eerie and gloomy surroundings, a thoughtful expression on his face.

Rules are all reflections and evolutions of real-world regulations, so there won't be any major discrepancies.

The only difference is probably the method and severity of the punishment.

The punishments in the celestial realm are not fatal.

The punishments in the underworld are likely to be different, most likely resulting in direct death.

Or rather, it might provoke Xiaoya's bloodthirsty killings.

After listening to Xiaoya's introduction, Chongzhen took a deep breath and carefully walked out of the living room.

I proceeded cautiously along the way, keeping in mind the rules he had set for me in reality, afraid of accidentally breaking them.

Although they had adjusted the severity of the punishment after returning from the Celestial Realm.

Even if you do break some rules, you won't suffer the same excruciating pain as before.

However, no matter how weak the punishment is, I doubt any normal person would want to be punished.
As he stepped out of the living room, a splash of blood-red light shone on Chongzhen's body, and a strange, chilling aura seeped into his body.

Emperor Chongzhen frowned slightly and looked up at the sky.

The sky was overcast and foggy, with a blood-red moon hanging in the sky, its crimson light filtering through the thin clouds.

Everything in the world was covered in a faint blood-red hue, making it appear so eerie and sinister.

Stepping out of the villa, Chongzhen felt a chill run through him. The eerie atmosphere around him instantly intensified several times, transforming into a thick, dark mist that drifted in the wind. This time, Chongzhen had learned his lesson and did not walk on the left side of the road, but instead kept to the right.

However, after walking for a short while, Chongzhen suddenly stopped.

Because right in front of them, a strange figure suddenly appeared.

"No way"

Emperor Chongzhen's body stiffened, and for a moment he felt caught in a dilemma.

He never expected that he would encounter a strange creature as soon as he stepped out of the villa.

Aren't there too many strange things in this underworld?

He had already experienced the power of these strange beings when he was in the Immortal Realm.

He and Empress Zhou were completely powerless to resist and were instantly killed by the strange spirits they encountered.

His eldest son, Zhu Cilang, although he killed the strange spirit, suffered a minor but insidious loss at the hands of more strange spirits that arrived later, and voluntarily withdrew from the Immortal Realm's Immortal Network.

Moreover, according to some information he found on the Immortal Network, the eerie creatures of the Underworld are far more ferocious than the eerie spirits of the Immortal Realm, readily killing and dismembering people.

Faced with such a power, Emperor Chongzhen naturally did not want to provoke it.

However, there are many things that he can't control just because he doesn't want to.

Seemingly having noticed Chongzhen's presence, the strange creature in front of him suddenly turned around and slowly walked towards him.

Seeing this, Chongzhen couldn't help but hold his breath, already wondering whether he should withdraw from the Underworld Celestial Network now.
In this way, one can naturally avoid being harmed by it.

But wasn't his main purpose in entering the underworld precisely for these strange occurrences?
He hasn't even really made contact yet, and he's already rushing back to reality. Doesn't that seem a bit too cowardly? He's bound to be ridiculed by others.

Just as Chongzhen was wavering back and forth, the strange creature in front of him had already arrived.

The strange creature before them had the appearance of a human, but bloody tears flowed from its eyes and its lips were crimson, as if it had just eaten raw flesh and blood.

"Hehehe, humans."

"Ah~!"

Although Emperor Chongzhen was the emperor of a country and a powerful figure with supernatural abilities, there were definitely many people who died because of his words.

However, he had never been to the battlefield, and had even seen very few dead people.

In this eerie and gloomy underworld, one's mind is already highly focused after encountering the strange thing before them.

Therefore, when that eerie, hoarse sound, like the scraping of broken glass, reached Chongzhen's ears, his nerves finally snapped, and he instantly let out a shrill scream.

In the next instant, Chongzhen mobilized all his true energy and recklessly punched and pounded at the strange object in front of him.

"boom!"

A terrifying aura erupted, instantly stunning the strange maneuver and causing his body to stiffen for a moment.

Then there is no more then.

A surge of powerful true energy erupted, instantly engulfing the strange entity before it and destroying it in a flash.

"Boom boom boom"

Chongzhen then threw several more punches, which struck the ground around him, creating craters that were half a meter in diameter.

Only when Chongzhen realized that there were no more strange things around him did he stop what he was doing, slowly gather his inner energy, and gasp for breath. He kept looking around, afraid that the strange thing would reappear.

After a long while, Chongzhen finally calmed down and carefully looked around.

The ground was a mess, riddled with potholes, but there was no sign of the strange figure.

Did he really kill that strange creature?
Suddenly, Chongzhen's gaze sharpened as he looked at a pit in the ground. (End of Chapter)
