Chapter 101 The real killer weapon has arrived!

When Li Xin woke up, a new day had already begun.

However, since it is the underworld, there is no sunrise or rosy dawn here; it remains a desolate green and lifeless place.

After crossing the bridge last night, Li Xin did not allow the Xinghuo to continue its journey, but instead let it find a safe place to rest and recuperate, allowing everyone to relax and have a good rest.

The night passed peacefully.

While getting dressed and washing up, Li Xin looked at the control panel.

Having met Meng Po, the "Visiting the Door" quest is complete, and the 1000-point reward has been credited to your account.

Adding to what he already had, he now has 1200 points at his disposal.

"Come on, let's evolve something else specifically for dealing with ghosts."

This time it's the same old routine.

We'll create basic items to deal with the dead in the production workshop, and then see if there are any practical evolutionary branches.

Incense, candles, wreaths, yellow paper, coffins, memorial tablets... As Li Xin invested in a series of basic building materials, the production workshop continuously produced various items.

Soon, his gaze fell on one of them.

Those are coffin nails on a coffin.

【Item Name: Coffin Nails】

[Description: A coffin nail precision-cast in a production workshop. Compared to the crude iron nails casually forged by folk carpenters, its craftsmanship is far superior, even overly modern.]

[Evolutionary Branch:]

[Devouring Yin: 1. Upon hitting a target, the nail will firmly penetrate its body and absorb Yin energy. 2. Causes a certain mental impact; the more Yin energy absorbed, the stronger the impact.] — 200 Evolution Points [Giant Slayer: Upon hitting, the higher the target's mana/rank/Yin energy, the stronger the damage.] — 500 Evolution Points [Underworld Limited — "Heavenly Karma": Using your current mobile city as an anchor point, automatically calculates the good and evil karma of the city and all its inhabitants. 1. The more good/evil deeds accumulated, the heavier the karma and retribution contained within the nail. 2. Upon hitting a target, all karmic retribution is settled at once. Note: You can only hold one Heavenly Karma at a time.] — 700 Evolution Points Li Xin's gaze immediately fell on the third evolution branch.

Heaven's retribution! What a fierce and heavy name.

Its abilities are even more terrifying: it accumulates karmic retribution and then settles it with the target all at once.

Therefore, spending only 700 evolution points is really worth it! It's just a pity that it's marked "Underworld Limited", which means it can only be used in the Underworld.

Li Xin chose this evolutionary branch almost without hesitation.

Not only that, but to enhance its power, he also added the Giant Slayer.

The Starfire already possessed the evil-suppressing bullets, which were more than enough to deal with small fry like ghosts and water spirits.

These coffin nails are for dealing with beings of the level of Meng Po (the goddess of forgetfulness in Chinese mythology).

After the evolution was completed, the coffin nails had become deeply sinister, and also exuded a strong aura.

Li Xin even specially adjusted its size in the production workshop, transforming it into a pointed cone shape like a cannonball, so that it could be fired from the Tiger Crouching Cannon.

In the following period, Li Xin began to accumulate "cause and effect" on this coffin nail on a large scale.

The method was simple and brutal: the Starfire was ordered to conduct a large-scale sweep of the nearby ghosts.

With each slain spirit, the aura on the coffin nails grew heavier.

During this time, Li Xin touched it and found that it was gradually becoming cold and chilling.

He was somewhat surprised.

Logically speaking, the Spark could be considered to be "exorcising" the spirits of the dead, albeit using a physical method.

This should be considered a good deed.

But judging from this feeling, it is actually an evil deed.

Soon, Li Xin understood.

The spirits crossed the Bridge of Helplessness, and were supposed to be reincarnated, but they were directly "shot" by the Starfire machine gun, so this should be considered a great evil.

He wasn't afraid; instead, he became even more excited.

This is because it means that the karmic consequences accumulated by the coffin nails are deeper.

During this time, Li Xin inadvertently noticed something.

On the Bridge of Helplessness, not all the wandering souls choose to drink Meng Po's soup; some simply pass by Meng Po without drinking it.

And Meng Po did not stop her.

Chen Caiwei offered an explanation in response.

"The souls who drink Meng Po's soup can be reincarnated in the six realms of reincarnation. Those who do not drink it will forever remain citizens of the underworld, living in Fengdu, carrying the obsessions of their past lives for the rest of their lives."

Li Xin was surprised.

"Is that so?"

His feelings were mixed for a moment.

The Six Paths of Reincarnation is where the Ark is gathering its forces, while Fengdu is the place I will go next.

He waved his hand, signaling the Starfire to continue firing at the ghosts.

But an accident occurred a few minutes later.

"What are you doing?"

A furious roar exploded from afar, causing ripples to spread across the surface of the River of Oblivion.

A vengeful ghost appeared, leading an iron chain with a long line of ghosts following behind.

As he watched the disintegrating ghosts swept away by the Starfire, his eyes widened and his beard and hair stood on end.

"For a living person to trespass into the underworld is already an unforgivable crime! To dare to wantonly slaughter spirits and destroy their foundation for reincarnation... is simply heinous!"

The eerie messenger was about to make a move, but he froze instantly after glancing at the Zhong Kui statue enshrined on the deck of the Starfire.

"Wait? Master Zhong Kui?"

He quickly straightened his clothes and knelt down gracefully.

As everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Li Xin glanced at the coffin nail; its malevolent aura was so intense it was almost seeping out.

He gave a cold laugh.

"Let's use you as an example."

While the ghost was still kneeling, Li Xin filled a tiger-crouching cannon with coffin nails, then aimed and fired.

The eerie figure snapped out of his daze and gave a cold smile.

"Since you've become so despicable, then I won't give Lord Zhong Kui any face anymore; I'll tear you to pieces!"

He raised his hand as he spoke.

"I can make this mere coffin nail with my bare hands."

The next second, his expression turned completely bewildered.

"Impossible! Why would it have such profound karmic consequences?"

Before he could finish speaking, the coffin nails had already been driven into his body.

In an instant, an overwhelmingly intense aura of malevolence erupted from the nail, engulfing the ghost messenger like a flood bursting its banks.

This being who holds a proper position in the underworld is utterly powerless against the coffin nails!

"Why! Why?!"

He let out a bloodcurdling scream.

"I have served my duty faithfully for over three hundred years, why is Heaven treating me this way!"

Immediately afterwards, the body of this strange creature crumbled and collapsed inch by inch, and then its soul and vital energy also dissipated completely.

Li Xin was stunned for a moment.

Although he had anticipated it, the power of the coffin nails still far exceeded his expectations.

The law of cause and effect, the karmic retribution—what a powerful force it is!

"Yunzhi, how many Yin spirits have we killed since the beginning of this month?" he asked softly.

The other party gave an accurate and correct answer.

"A total of 1032, Lord."
