“But this Mordgood doesn’t seem to have the same style as Lu Bu back then,” Shen Qingzhu said, standing with her arms crossed.

Faced with the combined attack of the two divine beasts, Mordgud was already struggling to keep up.

Furthermore, with the support of the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique, Gu Tianchen, who had already cultivated the True Body of the Heavenly Witch, was surrounded by three enormous creatures and forced to retreat in defeat.

Swish!

A golden light flashed, and Gu Tianchen flicked his halberd, severing Mordgud's arm, which was made up of countless skeletons!

The iron-eating beast immediately jumped up and bit the arm made of white bones, crushing it to pieces with a snap!

Yun Ting appeared behind Mordgud like lightning, spitting out a thick pillar of crimson lightning!

Unable to dodge in time, Mordgud was struck hard by the crimson lightning pillar, turning into countless shattered skulls scattered all over the ground.

"died?"

Baili Pangpang looked up at the rain of skulls and asked.

“The underworld controls the laws of death, so she shouldn’t die so easily,” Leng Xuan analyzed seriously.

Gu Tianchen retracted his true form from the Witch Clan, returned to his normal size, and swaggered towards the Nightfall Squad, carrying the God-Slaying Halberd.

"Let's go, this guy has already been easily dealt with by us in our three battles against the White Bone Demon."

Lin Qiye's expression suddenly changed, and he warned, "Watch out behind you!"

A skull that had fallen to the ground suddenly had its empty eye sockets flashing red light. It jumped up from the ground, its jaw and teeth making a series of teeth-grinding sounds, and went straight for Gu Tianchen to bite from behind!

The skeleton was too fast; even Lin Qiye, who possessed the Divine Realm of Mortals, could only barely catch a glimpse of its afterimage!

Click!

The skull bit down on the back of Gu Tianchen's neck, a crisp snapping sound rang out, and the skull's jaw was knocked off to the ground...

The first time everyone saw such a jaw-dropping expression on a faceless skull, after all, its jaw had really fallen off...

The skull hovered awkwardly in mid-air, looking at Gu Tianchen, who hadn't even left a mark on the back of his neck, and began to doubt its own existence as a ghost...

Taking advantage of the skull's momentary lapse in concentration, Gu Tianchen extended two fingers and swiftly pierced the skull's eye sockets, tossing it into the River Styx like a bowling ball.

"Even the Skeleton Demon from Northern Europe isn't that great; that's all she's capable of," Gu Tianchen said with a shrug.

"Why don't you... take a look behind you?" Jiang Er suggested, floating in the air.

Gu Tianchen turned around and saw one skull after another flying out of the River Styx, all exuding a ghostly death aura, staring at the Nightfall Squad members with ferocious expressions, as if they wanted to devour them all alive!

Seeing such a large number of skulls, Gu Tianchen was not afraid at all; instead, he showed excitement.

"Everyone, run! I'll use the Great Xia Orthodox Emperor's Banner to stop them!"

Gu Tianchen pulled out the Myriad Souls Banner, which was filled with surging black energy and heart-wrenching howls, and held it tightly in his hand.

An Qingyu adjusted her glasses, looked at the black banner in Gu Tianchen's hand with a puzzled expression, "This is the legendary Emperor's Banner, why does it look so sinister?"

Gu Tianchen said without batting an eye, "It's been sitting in the underground warehouse for a long time and it's gotten a bit damp. I'll take it out and air it in the sun when I have some free time."

"Alright, we'll head out now. Be careful," Lin Qiye reminded him.

Baili Pangpang's lips twitched slightly as he glanced at the skulls still churning on the River Styx, muttering under his breath, "Shouldn't they be the ones who need to be careful..."

After glancing at the incredibly excited Gu Tianchen, Baili Pangpang seriously suspected that this brute had come to the Nordic Underworld to buy goods!

The others retreated first, leaving only Gu Tianchen holding the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

"Hehehe, let me show you the power of the legitimate Emperor's Banner of the Great Xia Dynasty!"

The skulls, carrying a cloud of yin energy, rained down on Gu Tianchen.

Gu Tianchen shook the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in his hand, and instantly dark clouds gathered, evil energy surged, and countless fierce ghosts and dead souls emerged from the Ten Thousand Souls Banner!

Before these skulls could even reach Gu Tianchen, they were terrified by the overwhelming force of the approaching ghosts and spirits.

Without a word, the vengeful spirits that emerged from the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls, like resentful workers forced into the KPL by their boss, swept up terrifying resentment and grabbed the skulls, pulling them into the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls!

These vengeful ghosts and spirits, nourished by the powerful Yin energy of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, are several levels higher than the skulls.

Faced with this group of ferocious demons, the skulls were like sheep, powerless to fight back, and were dragged into the Ten Thousand Soul Banner to become brothers!

The most aggressive of them all was the Mountain Giant, which had just been subdued not long ago.

Without saying a word, the big, dumb guy aimed at Mordgood's soul, who was recuperating at the bottom of the River Styx!

Mordgood stared in astonishment at the mountain giant who was clinging to him tightly.

We are all born of the same root, why are we so eager to harm each other?!

The mountain giant gave a dismissive look and grabbed Mordgud's soul, preparing to fly into the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls!

Since I've already gotten rained on, I might as well tear all the other people's umbrellas to shreds too!

Although the mountain giant was extremely powerful in terms of physical strength, it was still somewhat powerless against Mordgood, who cultivated the soul and death. The two were locked in a stalemate at the bottom of the River of the Underworld!

Gu Tianchen shook the Myriad Souls Banner in his hand and began to release more dead souls.

"Brothers, pull up the soul of that White Bone Demon from the bottom of the river! I want her to become one of our Ten Thousand Soul Banner brothers! Let's go!"

With a wave of his hand, Gu Tianchen unleashed a torrent of souls into the River Styx, tearing at Mordgud's soul!

Mordgood discovered that among the undead attacking her were not only those from Great Xia, but also many of her own skeletal undead!

What's with that black banner in that kid's hand? His loyal subordinate just betrayed him right in front of him like that?!

Torn apart by countless vengeful ghosts and spirits, Mordgud's soul finally succumbed to the burden and was absorbed into the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls.

"Hehe, serves you right for not working hard in your cultivation. Now let's be brothers."

Gu Tianchen also absorbed the water of the Styx River into the Myriad Souls Banner. This thing was icy cold and full of yin energy, which was a great tonic for the dead.

Since we're already here, we can't let our brothers have come all this way for nothing. We'll take everything we can from the underworld!

After finishing his purchase, Gu Tianchen carried the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and rode Yun Ting, quickly catching up with the Nightfall Squad, who had left not long ago, and arrived at the Necropolis of Hela, the Queen of the Underworld.

"What are you guys doing standing at the door? Why don't you go in?" Gu Tianchen, carrying the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, asked casually.

The Nightfall Squad members looked utterly defeated, glaring resentfully at Gu Tianchen.

In front of the Hall of the Dead, two mountain-sized demonic wolves that were lying on the ground were sleeping when they were awakened by Gu Tianchen's voice.

Two mountain-sized demonic wolves, their eerie green eyes gleaming with chilling killing intent, bared their teeth as they stared at the uninvited guests.

Chapter 515 The Plate

"No, was I just delirious from overusing the Emperor's Flag? Why am I seeing double?"

Gu Tianchen rubbed his eyes and looked at the two identical demon wolves.

“You didn’t see the double shadows; these are two.” Leng Xuan said seriously.

"This is... Fenrir the Demon Wolf?" Jiang Er asked in confusion.

“Judging from the fluctuations of divine power, it doesn’t seem to be Fenrir the wolf. It should be its offspring, Hati who chased the sun and Skul who chased the moon during Ragnarok in Norse mythology,” An Qingyu explained.

Lin Qiye said, "After Gam, the hellhound who was originally guarding this place, was killed by Xiaotianquan in Cangnan, Hela used these two demon wolves to replace Gam in guarding the Temple of the Dead."

The two wolves pressed closer, letting out threatening growls at the Nightfall Squad.

"They're just two guard dogs. Everyone has a pet. If they send dogs, we'll send cats!"

After Gu Tianchen finished speaking, the Iron-Eating Beast and Yun Ting rushed out from behind him, one on the left and one on the right, and charged straight at the two demonic wolves.

Hati spat out a thick pillar of blazing fire, which collided fiercely with Yun Ting's pillar of lightning, creating a terrifying shockwave of divine power!

Skul exhaled streams of cold air, which instantly condensed into ice spikes in the air and shot towards the Iron-Eating Beast.

The Iron-Eating Beast raised its hand and adopted the Tai Chi Cloud Hands stance, its hands constantly rotating to create a Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram, blocking all the ice spike attacks and surrounding itself.

With a gentle push from two chubby little hands, countless ice spikes flew towards Skul, forcing the demon wolf to retreat repeatedly.

While the two demonic wolves were entangled by Gu Tianchen's two divine beasts, the Nightfall Squad sneaked into the unguarded Necropolis.

The Hall of the Dead was filled with a deathly atmosphere and a sinister, terrifying aura.

"It's too dark. There isn't even a light. Tianchen, hurry up and start a fire," Baili Pangpang reminded him.

Gu Tianchen raised his middle finger, and a surge of purplish-red flame instantly shot out, illuminating a large area around him.

At the same time the Heavenly Fire burst forth, the torches on both sides of the Hall of the Dead all spontaneously combusted, emitting eerie green flames that enveloped the entire Hall of the Dead in a strange, ghastly green light.

Gu Tianchen carried the halberd and walked at the front of the group.

"Where are the Hella people? Are they still asleep?"

Shen Qingzhu, who was right behind her, placed her hand on the hilt of the knife. "You look just like a mouse carrying a knife, searching for a cat all over the street."

Gu Tianchen said calmly, "What's the panic? We have four supreme artifacts in our hands. Even if we can't win, we can still escape."

Lin Qiye said, "The Underworld is Hela's territory. It will not be easy to rescue Jinian quietly under her nose."

"The enemy is in the dark while we are in the light. The more chaotic the situation, the more advantageous it is for us. We can fish in troubled waters, grab what we can, and leave."

"Wait," Jiang Er suddenly called out to everyone, "Listen carefully, can you hear anything?"

Everyone pricked up their ears, listening carefully to the sounds around them.

"Gurgle~"

Baili Pangpang frowned. "Tsk, it sounds like a stomach churning."

Gu Tianchen touched his stomach sheepishly and said, "My stomach is rumbling. That move, the True Form of the Witch Clan, was powerful, but it also took a lot of energy."

He pulled out several steaming hot pork knuckles, smiled, and looked at the crowd, asking, "Want some? You need to be full to have the energy to fight!"

Everyone sighed and held their foreheads in disbelief, except for Baili Pangpang, who quickly stepped forward and took the large pork knuckle from Gu Tianchen's hands.

"To be honest, I'm actually a bit hungry after walking for so long. Let's replenish our energy."

Gu Tianchen distributed the braised pork knuckle to everyone, and although he was the last to eat, he ate faster than everyone else.

I devoured eighteen large pork knuckles in one go to barely quell my hunger.

"Gurgle~"

Another rumbling sound came from my stomach.

Gu Tianchen smiled and looked at his teammates, asking, "Who's still hungry? I have some more left over?"
