Cultivation of Immortality: This is what unorthodox methods are like.

"Okay, I'm afraid of ghosts and spirits!"

Under Wang Quan's watchful gaze, the Black Smoke Taoist finally sighed and said, "These second-level ghosts and gods are far more terrifying than those on the first level."

"Even the ghosts and monsters here are extremely eerie."

"If you didn't have a strong enough foundation, and if you didn't have extraordinary luck, you would definitely have become a part of the memories of those ghosts and gods."

Wang Quan's heart stirred: "Why are only the ghosts and spirits of the underworld corresponding to the polar regions so powerful?"

"Normally, the spirits and deities of the second level of the underworld in other areas should be this powerful!"

The Taoist priest in black smoke shook his head: "I don't know either."

"The Daoist Court of the World is opening up the polar regions for the first time, and this is the first time it has encountered something like this."

"Perhaps, the underworld corresponding to our main world is just the weakest part of the underworld."

"Perhaps it was because we opened up the polar regions that the corresponding underworld came into being?"

"Perhaps... the world is preventing us from opening up the polar regions, which is why it has gathered the powerful ghosts scattered everywhere in the corresponding underworld areas of the polar regions to hinder us."

"Perhaps... there are too many possibilities."

At this point, the Black Smoke Taoist remained silent.

Wang Quan remained silent.

After a moment, he took a deep breath and repeated, "Fellow Daoist, my connection between the second and first levels this time was purely by luck."

"If I had to do it again, I would definitely fail."

The Taoist priest in black smoke nodded: "Alright!"

"I see!"

He knew that Wang Quan was refusing to continue his connections with other parts of the Second Underworld.

He had anticipated this outcome, and so had the Daoist Court of the World.

Therefore, he was not disappointed.

He simply had Wang Quan visualize the scene of opening up the second level of the Yin Mansion safe zone, and then cut it out and took it back to the [Tianxia Daoting] for research.

The Taoist priest in black smoke has left.

After a slight hesitation, Wang Quan returned to the first level of the underworld.

He returned to the first level of the underworld to draw upon ghosts, spirits, cultivators, and other beings to fill the second level of the underworld's stronghold.

As soon as he returned, he saw a stone-headed bull-like demon outside the city weeping and carrying a stick as it walked into the distance.

A bundle was tied to the end of the stick, and as he wept, the bundle swayed precariously, adding to the scene of his desolation.

Wang Quan recognized the other person's back and transformed into a murderous aura, swooping down upon them.

"Why do even spirits and deities weep?"

"And where are you going?"

Upon seeing that it was Wang Quan, the stone bull demon cried even more miserably: "You treacherous dog, it's all your fault!"

Royal power...

"Explain in detail!"

The stone bull demon choked back tears: "I descended to the second level of the underworld, intending to serve you."

"And then your friends, disregarding the feelings of the demon race, without asking any questions, just silently and inexplicably smashed my head in!"

"So, I no longer have a real head, only a fake one."

"Now, many of my kind are mocking me. I have dozens of formal Daoist partners and hundreds of thousands of informal ones, but none of them are close to me."

"They called me a coward, a weakling, and trash."

"My life is over."

"Now, I have no choice but to leave for distant lands."

Woo! Woo! Woo!

The stone bull demon cried its heart out, its sorrow flowing like a river.

Wang Quan's heart stirred, and he comforted her, "I happen to have a way to send you to a place where no ghosts or gods know you."

"When you get to the new place, just say that you were born with a stone head, that you are a stone ox demon."

"The spirits and deities of this new place think you're a rare species, so they cherish you and want to be your friend."

Upon hearing this, the stone ox demon was intrigued: "Sprinkle flowers... Taoist, explain in detail."

Wang Quan hesitated, stammering, "But..."

The stone bull demon grew anxious: "But what?"

Wang Quan sighed, "It's just that my path is a little dangerous."

"Moreover, when you go to a new place, you have to start all over again."

The Stone Ox Demon God said urgently, "These are minor issues."

"Hooray, sir, all I want now is to go somewhere where no ghosts or monsters know me."

"There is no place where ghosts and monsters mock me, no place where spirits and gods despise me."

"Please, sir!"

Wang Quan sighed, "Very well, since you are so sincere, I will take you away."

"But before you leave, you should bring some underlings with you."

"When the time comes, I'll have my underlings do things for you, and you can continue to be a high and mighty god."

The stone ox demon was overjoyed. He strode back into the city, then opened his mouth and swallowed 100,000 demons in one gulp.

"Hooray, sir, let's go now."

"good!"

Wang Quan's heart stirred. Instead of using the connecting passage between the first and second floors, he used his authority to directly descend to the second floor of the underworld.

The next instant, the Stone Ox Demon God felt as if he had been transported to the underworld, and then appeared outside a huge manor.

When he saw the manor, it seemed familiar.

It's just that because the stone head was replaced, the brain inside hasn't fully developed yet, and I can't remember where I've seen it before.

"Master, where is this place?"

Wang Quan smiled and said, "This is where you were born, and this is where you rose to prominence."

"Stay here, protect this manor, and expand it."

"In the future, you will have the opportunity to become a hegemon with this manor as your core, and you may even be qualified to compete for the position of one of the Five Ghost Emperors."

The stone ox and the spirits were overjoyed and expressed their gratitude repeatedly.

Wang Quan patted him on the shoulder: "Do a good job, I believe in you."

"Ugh!"

The stone ox demon opened its mouth and spewed out 100,000 ghosts and monsters.

When the ghosts landed and saw that the king and the spirits were together, they immediately prostrated themselves on the ground.

Wang Quan laughed and said, "I have asked the gods and spirits to take you across mountains and rivers to this new world."

"Do your jobs well, and from now on, you will surely have a place in this new world."

The many ghosts and monsters were overjoyed and bowed to the king, saying, "Rest assured, sir, we will work hard and be your servants to strive for your strength."

As they were talking, a ghost suddenly cried out in alarm.

The next instant, the monster's flesh writhed, its bones cracked, and a pair of wings sprouted from its back.

Whoosh!

Its wings spread out and flapped wildly, blowing out gusts of eerie wind.

Ghosts were blown by the cold wind, and their skin was torn open, causing them to writhe in pain on the ground.

The other ghosts were horrified: "We're about the same strength, how did you suddenly become so powerful?"

Before the monster could respond, the other monsters began to writhe and their bones crack.

Some ghosts had seven or eight heads, some ghosts emitted streaks of blue flame, and some ghosts shot out black light, illuminating all directions.

Even the wailing ghosts on the ground had their wounds healed quickly, and grew a layer of heavy armor covered with spikes.

Wang Quan raised an eyebrow: "They've gotten stronger?"

The bull-headed demon beside him shook his head: "No!"

"Their bloodline has evolved, they've reverted to their ancestral form."

"Their nature has changed."

"They are no longer the old varieties, but new varieties."

Royal power... speechless.

variety?

This word... is so strange.

He took a deep breath, suppressing his many thoughts: "So, have they become stronger?"

"I've gotten stronger!"

"So... they became stronger just by standing here?"

"good!"

"Then this place is truly a treasure!"

The stone ox spirit nodded vigorously, and accidentally knocked its stone head off.

He hurriedly picked up the stone head, his mouth opening and closing: "Master, this is absolutely the most top-tier treasure land."

"My lord, you have bestowed such a precious land upon me; I truly... do not know how to repay you."

"My lord, I was born a bull-monster, one of the oxen and horses; therefore, let me be your mount to repay your kindness!"
