Terrifying Heavens: I'll directly worship the Black Law of Fengdu!

Chapter 316 Maoshan Ming Releases the Blood Curse

The City God and the Ghost Head never expected that before even reaching Fengdu City, they would be arrested right in front of King Yama, without even going through any of the ghost messengers, simply by visiting the Hall of King Yama.

The Judge of Fengdu really exists, and he's so powerful that even King Yama has to acknowledge his existence.

After what happened at the Hall of Reincarnation, there was no need to go to Fengdu City anymore. The expressions of the City God and the Ghost Head towards Li Xuan changed, and they were more cautious than before.

In the mortal realm, at Baiyun Residence.

Uncle Nine stared thoughtfully at the crack suspended in mid-air.

A-Qiang walked over curiously and circled around the crack in the air to observe it, even reaching out to touch it.

"stop!"

Uncle Nine suddenly shouted, "This crack leads straight to the underworld. If you want to die sooner, go touch it!"

Upon hearing this, A-Qiang abruptly withdrew his hand and darted back several steps like a startled rabbit, still shaken: "My goodness, thank goodness Master, your reminder was spot on."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Nine immediately raised his hand and said, "Don't try to claim kinship with me. We're not even officially master and disciple yet. If you call me that, I'm afraid Judge Li Xuan will misunderstand."

With Mao Shanming's matter right before his eyes, just mentioning his master made Li Xuan act like a cat smelling fish, summoning the City God without hesitation to begin a direct journey to the underworld.

If Ah Qiang were to learn magic, he wouldn't be much better than Mao Shanming.

Who knows, Lin Jiu might end up like Qi Haizhi today.

Sitting on the ground, Maoshan Ming had a bad feeling. He was restless and looked around anxiously. Finally, he couldn't help but speak to Uncle Jiu, "Fellow Daoist, although I have cheated people out of their money, I have never taken anyone's life. This so-called Fengdu judge doesn't need to make such a big deal out of this and try to harm me..."

Uncle Nine also came from Maoshan.

He also felt that Li Xuan was too strict. The rules of Maoshan were strict. For those who used ghosts to cheat and swindle, if they were not killed, at most they would be removed from the Taoist register, expelled from the sect, and their masters would be confined for three years.

Uncle Nine sighed softly, “I know that Fengdu has extremely strict black laws. It is said that when the black laws were established, the world was in great chaos. As the saying goes, in times of chaos, severe punishments are necessary to deter villains and cleanse the world. However, I have never seen the black laws appear in the human world. Fellow Daoist, you have run into a brick wall this time.”

Mao Shanming's expression shifted repeatedly, finally settling on Da Bao and Xiao Bao, and he gritted his teeth, saying:
“Da Bao, Xiao Bao, one of you died at the age of seven, and the other was a talented person who died young at the age of twenty. You are both pitiful people. When I first saw you wandering around in the countryside, I felt sorry for you and thought that we were fellow sufferers. So I took you with me and we have been wandering around the world together ever since, eating and drinking and wasting our lives.”

"I just never imagined that what we did would cause such a disaster. I... I'm so sorry!"

He seemed to have made up his mind, and turned to look at Lin Jiu, saying, "Fellow Daoist, I have done something wrong, and I will take responsibility for my actions. Da Bao and Xiao Bao are innocent. Please turn a blind eye and let me let them go."

Uncle Nine opened his mouth, and said earnestly, "Why are you doing this?"

Suddenly, Mao Shanming attacked A-Qiang, snatching the long knife from his waist and holding it in his hand, shouting, "I don't care, Da Bao and Xiao Bao can't be hurt! Who knows what kind of inhumane punishment that judge will bring! They've suffered too much in life and death, how can they suffer in hell again!"

Uncle Nine suddenly stood up: "Calm down!"

Maoshan Ming's face was full of sorrow, and his voice was like crying: "I, Maoshan Ming, have accomplished nothing in my life. In the end, I will only bring trouble to my master and to Da Bao and Xiao Bao. I am nothing but a pest! All I want now is for Da Bao and Xiao Bao to leave. I beg you, fellow Daoist, please pretend you didn't see this."

Uncle Nine was suffering in his heart; how could he not want to do this?

However, the Black Law is very strict, and if Da Bao and Xiao Bao run away, he will probably be implicated as well.

If they could borrow a mirror from the underworld to review the situation, things would be even worse... He lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry."

Maoshan understood. He held the knife in his right hand, gripped the blade with his left, and pulled hard. Blood splattered, and he smeared the deep, bone-revealing wound on his palm against his face. He began chanting an incantation: "The Southern Dipper governs life, the Northern Dipper governs death. Now I burn my blood, and beseech the Thunder God! So be it!"

Upon hearing the incantation, Uncle Nine's expression changed: "Fellow Daoist, you!"

Although I don't know the name of this incantation, its content is very ominous. It's a forbidden Taoist incantation that uses a great price to gain great power.

Da Bao and Xiao Bao had never seen Mao Shanming exude such a dangerous aura before, and they both panicked: "Uncle Ming, don't do this, we are willing to go down and be punished together."

Maoshan Ming bled from all seven orifices, his left hand held a sword pointing at him, and he looked like a mad demon.

He suddenly grabbed Ah Qiang by the neck and looked at Uncle Jiu: "You're not allowed to make a move. Let Da Bao and Xiao Bao leave!"

Ah Qiang trembled all over, feeling death so close, and tears streamed down his face: "No! I haven't even gotten married and had children yet. It would be so terrible to die like this."

Maoshan Ming roared, "Da Bao, Xiao Bao, you two run!"

He was a Taoist priest with little talent to begin with, and now, burning his essence and blood to activate his magic power was even more painful than for ordinary Taoist priests.

With tears streaming down their faces, Da Bao and Xiao Bao exchanged a glance, then ran towards the courtyard gate without a word, passing through it and disappearing without a trace...

Seeing this, Maoshan Ming threw Aqiang aside, collapsed to the ground, dark red blood seeping from his pores. His aura quickly faded, and he said with a self-deprecating laugh, "I never thought that I would finally be able to show off, but I've already become impotent so quickly. Master, I'm really not cut out for cultivation."

Uncle Nine sighed heavily.

He looked at Ah Qiang and said, "You guys keep an eye on them. I'll go out and bring those two brats back."

When Judge Li Xuan returned and couldn't find the two little devils, Uncle Jiu couldn't imagine the consequences. He could only chase after Da Bao and Xiao Bao in front of the dying Mao Shanming...

Suddenly, the rattling sound of chains came from the crack.

Just as Uncle Nine reached the door, two semi-transparent black iron chains swept past him and flew out, binding Da Bao and Xiao Bao, who were running wildly down the street, and dragging them back...

Mao Shanming's eyes widened as he heard Da Bao and Xiao Bao's cries of agony. With a burst of strength, he picked up the broadsword and slashed fiercely at the iron chain!

The broadsword pierced through the chains, and he stumbled forward and fell to the ground.

Can't they even put up the slightest resistance?
Mao Shanming felt utterly hopeless.

Li Xuan and the City God emerged from the crack. The Hell Demon Head didn't come, as it was no longer needed there. However, before leaving, it fawned over Li Xuan, saying it would cooperate if he needed anything.

Li Xuan held two iron chains in his hands. When he approached the crack in the underworld, he sensed two streams of yin energy rapidly leaving. He concluded that Da Bao and Xiao Bao had escaped, so he remotely cast a spell to use the Soul-Locking Chains to capture them back.

Unexpectedly, when they emerged from the crack, they saw Maoshan Ming lying on the ground, bleeding from all seven orifices and holding a large knife, on the verge of death, while Uncle Nine pretended to chase after a ghost.

He was somewhat surprised, not expecting Uncle Nine to be so ruthless, beating Maoshan Ming into such a state.

The City God was secretly astonished at how cruel these people from Maoshan were to their fellow disciples.
