"This is our Eastern Ghost Emperor, His Majesty Daheitian. His Majesty Daheitian's will represents our will!"
Dozens of ghosts and gods stared intently at the strongest being from the underworld who was being pushed out, their eyes flashing with excitement.
They were almost all ghosts from the Xuanhuang Great World. Although they had lost their understanding of heavenly tribulations, the legend of the Nine Tribulations Golden Immortal was still deeply engraved in their minds.
They trusted Daheitian, a legendary figure who nearly achieved the Nine Tribulations Golden Immortal realm, without reservation.
In their understanding, apart from Zhenyuan Daxian of Wuzhuang Temple who created the world, there are very few people in the Xuanhuang Great World who can surpass Daheitian, not even the Lord of Mount Tai in front of them.
The Great Black Heaven, who was pushed out, stared blankly at Luo Tian in front of him. The spark of inspiration in his mind finally transformed into a large amount of memory, the contents of which made the Great Black Heaven break out in a cold sweat.
In the last image of that memory, the pale purple flames of the soul turned the ferocious beast, comparable to the world itself, to ashes, and the terror that had weighed on his heart for two hundred thousand years vanished.
The being that released the pale purple soul flame was none other than the Lord of Mount Tai before them!
His instincts, deep within his soul, were frantically reminding him.
"Don't cause trouble, you'll die!"
Daheitian's legs buckled, and he knelt before Luo Tian in an extremely disheveled manner, a forced smile that looked more like a grimace appearing on his stiff face.
"Greetings, Your Excellency!"
Chapter 353 His Name is: Great Luo! 7000
All the ghosts and spirits were stunned. Some couldn't help but rub their eyes, carefully trying to make out the scene before them.
They never imagined that Daheitian, who had always been regarded as the strongest being in the underworld and had almost reached the perfect state of a Nine Tribulation Golden Immortal, would kneel so humbly before this suddenly appearing Lord of the Underworld.
The scene before them was so surreal that it left them momentarily stunned and unsure how to respond.
Luo Tian was also somewhat surprised and said:
"You know me?"
The Great Black Heaven, kneeling on the ground, said cautiously:
"I once witnessed Lord Fu in action at the Jade Emperor Mountain Grotto. At that time, I was in a daze and unable to maintain my own consciousness, so I offended Lord Fu. I hope you will forgive me!"
Following Daheitian's prompting, Luo Tian pondered for a while before finally merging the towering figure of a demon god in his mind with Daheitian.
"By the way, you're the guy who faked his death for 200,000 years to avoid the calamity. I just casually stuffed you into the underworld."
"I didn't expect your memories of the calamity weren't completely erased; it seems you do have some knowledge of it."
Luo Tian gently stroked his chin and commented.
Normally, any memories related to Luo Tian's slaying of the white jade giant elephant and the White Bone Bodhisattva would be erased.
However, for Daheitian, the calamity that had weighed on his heart for two hundred thousand years was too heavy. Even the impact of the great fall could not be completely erased. This allowed Daheitian to retain some memories by chance, which enabled him to recognize Luo Tian's existence.
Daheitian inwardly chuckled bitterly at Luo Tian's assessment that "he does seem to have some skill."
As the being closest to the Nine Tribulations Golden Immortal, he was merely given a casual remark that he was somewhat capable, yet in front of this person, Daheitian didn't even have the right to refute.
To be able to catch the eye of this being is already the highest praise.
Only then did the surrounding ghosts and spirits realize what was happening.
Every move Daheitian made reminded them that the seemingly ordinary Lord Fu was definitely no ordinary being!
Some ghosts and spirits began to feel guilty and wanted to quietly follow behind Mahakala and kneel down.
The next moment, Luo Tian shifted his meaningful gaze from Daheitian to the group of ghosts and gods standing in place.
"These are the ghosts and spirits of the underworld that I spent so many resources cultivating? How come there are all sorts of rotten fish and shrimp here?"
Luo Tian glanced at Lilith beside him and couldn't help but comment.
Lilith stood there, her head slightly lowered, her expression somewhat somber.
"This is my dereliction of duty!"
Although she had always been diligent in presiding over the underworld, the events that had occurred were indeed beyond her control, which is an undeniable fact.
The reason for this is that her demonstrated abilities were not convincing enough to convince the public.
The spirits and deities of the underworld might respect her because of her imperial decree, but the difference in their actual strength is not enough to give her the opportunity to completely control all the spirits and deities.
The current situation is the result of the underworld spirits and deities slipping out of control.
Lilith's eyes were gloomy, and there seemed to be some kind of colorful and distorted shimmering in her pupils.
As a powerful deity who once held the title of evil god, Lilith's strength is definitely not weak after being empowered by the authority of the Fengdu Emperor. Once she truly unleashes her power, even the Great Black Heaven would not be her match.
However, Lilith believed that the power of the evil god was too chaotic and would affect the existing order of the underworld. Therefore, she suppressed the power belonging to the evil god, causing the underworld ghosts and gods to misjudge her strength.
Now that such a big problem has arisen, negative emotions surged within Lilith, and chaotic evil god power quietly spread.
Just then, Luo Tian's voice interrupted Lilith's surging negative emotions.
"Your dereliction of duty? What does that have to do with you?" Luo Tian looked slightly taken aback.
Lilith even momentarily forgot about the spreading evil god's power, her beautiful eyes flashing slightly as she said:
"You're not here to hold me accountable?"
Luo Tian rolled his eyes in annoyance and said:
"It was just a bunch of small fry causing trouble. Do I look like the kind of person who's so unreasonable as to arbitrarily pin the blame on others?"
"Besides, what kind of relationship do we have? Is it worth getting angry over such trash?"
Luo Tian's repeated comments about "small fry" and "trash" finally angered the already somewhat uneasy underworld spirits.
In their view, Luo Tian's ability to subdue Daheitian was indeed remarkable, but that did not mean he could trample on the dignity of the underworld gods and spirits at will.
The Southern Ghost Emperor took a step forward, his expression grim, and said:
"Your Excellency, that's a bit much!"
"We, the ghosts and gods of the underworld, maintain the order of the underworld and are the cornerstone of the entire underworld world. Even if we have no merit, we have worked hard to make the underworld have the scale it has today!"
But in the Lord's eyes, we seem to have become someone who cannot be brought to the table. Is this how the Lord evaluates the meritorious officials of the Underworld?
"A meritorious official? You're not talking about yourself, are you?"
Luo Tian seemed to have heard a huge joke and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Before Luo Tian, the gloomy-faced Southern Ghost Emperor, a powerful ghost god with divine strength comparable to a Golden Immortal in the Xuanhuang Great World, appeared like a clown.
The hearty laughter seemed to echo throughout the entire underworld, making the already gloomy face of the Southern Ghost Emperor even more unsightly.
Finally, Luo Tian, who was almost doubled over from laughing, straightened up, his face still beaming with a smile.
Gently raise your right hand and loosely clench it in front of you.
A sudden surge of immense fear rose in the heart of the Southern Ghost Emperor. He instinctively wanted to invoke the authority of the Underworld and use his supernatural powers, but in an instant, his slender, fair fingers disregarded the distance in space and directly gripped the Southern Ghost Emperor's neck in their palms.
Without any fluctuations of immortal or extraordinary power, Luo Tian simply stretched out his right hand, and all the power in the entire underworld was mobilized by him.
It seems that this vast world has forcefully handed the Southern Ghost Emperor into his grasp.
All of the Southern Ghost Emperor's ghostly and divine power and authority were sealed off. After becoming the Ghost Emperor, the Southern Ghost Emperor finally experienced the same weakness and powerlessness as an ordinary person once again. His gloomy face was filled with wide eyes as he stared intently at Luo Tian.
He couldn't believe that he, a ghost god of the underworld comparable to a golden immortal, was completely powerless against Luo Tian.
At this moment, he finally understood why Daheitian was so afraid of this Lord of the Prefecture.
Even so, the Southern Ghost Emperor still did not choose to back down. He glared angrily at Luo Tian and rebuked him in a furious voice:
"We have put in a lot of effort to build the Underworld, but the Lord of the Underworld has never interfered."
Now that the Underworld and the Lesser Underworld have completely merged and are about to become the Yin Realm of the Xuanhuang Great World, not only has the Lord of the Underworld come out to monopolize the greatest benefits, but he also arbitrarily decides life and death for us meritorious officials. Is this the magnanimity of the Lord of the Underworld?
The words of the Southern Ghost Emperor naturally aroused the shared hatred and indignation in the hearts of all the ghosts and gods.
Their dissatisfaction with Luo Tian was largely due to his aloof and hands-off management style.
In their view, Luo Tian had done nothing, yet he was able to wield the greatest power in the underworld, which was something they were unwilling to accept.
Luo Tian remained noncommittal regarding the Southern Ghost Emperor's remarks.
Scanning the group of ghosts and gods, and seeing their unwilling eyes, Luo Tian couldn't help but shake his head.
"Some people think they are an indispensable part after receiving a little benefit, but in reality, the entire underworld will never stop operating just because any ghost or god is missing."
Luo Tian glanced at the Southern Ghost Emperor in his hand and smiled slightly:
"Including you, it's the same."
As soon as he finished speaking, the power of the Soul-Sucking Strike suddenly erupted, and the terrifying will of death directly tore the ghost god in Luo Tian's hand to shreds.
The Southern Ghost Emperor, with his immense divine power, had no chance to resist.
"The Southern Ghost Emperor... fell so easily?"
Such a thought arose in the minds of all the ghosts and spirits.
The next moment, several ghost cities on the earth began to tremble, and a large amount of incense power began to gather in the sacred incense soil, which manifested as an enormous ghost god among the city gods of the various cities.
The ghosts and gods wore imperial crowns and held power, their aura almost reaching the limit of the Golden Immortal realm. The immense power of incense and the authority of the underworld merged, as if to merge into the entire world.
The enormous demon looked at Luo Tian, its furious voice echoing throughout the heavens and earth.
"You can rely on your status in the underworld to suppress the authority of the netherworld, but have you ever witnessed the power of incense offerings leading to deity status?"
As soon as the words fell, a giant ghostly claw descended from the sky, causing vast areas of space to collapse and the light to dim wherever it landed. The underworld trembled, and heaven and earth seemed to collapse at that moment.
Such power terrified countless ghosts and gods.
Especially the ghosts and gods who held the positions of Emperor and Yama, their eyes gleamed with light.
They all secretly practiced the ways of incense offerings to varying degrees, in order to prevent themselves from being overly restricted by the power of the underworld.
However, very few people can reach the level of the Southern Ghost Emperor.
The current situation provides an opportunity for them to see whether the path of worshipping deities can break free from the constraints of the underworld's authority and gain autonomy.
Before these ambitious underworld spirits, the underworld is merely a stepping stone to advancement; it is not impossible that they may one day glimpse its grandeur.
However, in the very next instant, they witnessed a scene they would never forget.
"The Southern Ghost Emperor has disobeyed the laws of the Underworld and is secretly cultivating incense offerings to become a god, intending to overthrow the order of the Underworld. His crime deserves to be punished!"
"Considering the difficulty with which he obtained his position as the Ghost Emperor, I strip him of his title and cast him into the animal realm to endure a hundred lifetimes of reincarnation!"
A grand sound resounded throughout the heavens and earth.
