I am Jinshan Youxia

Fortunately, the lightning tribulation itself couldn't control such a large number, so it exploded on its own.

Otherwise, if it had expanded infinitely in an instant, Zhang Chengyi suspected that if he hadn't lost control of the lightning tribulation and exploded, the power of the infinitely expanding heavenly lightning would have increased infinitely. At that time, he could have dragged this planet down with him and set off a cosmic firework.

Anyway, after the explosion, his lightning resistance and steel-like body withstood the first wave of damage. The locked corpse energy did not dissipate, saving his life. Then, the eternal vitality allowed his body, which had been erased by the lightning, to regenerate little by little.

When it finally fell, to put it more humanly, the corpse energy was completely terrified by the terrifying heavenly lightning, becoming extremely timid and unresponsive.

The truth is that this kind of energy, called corpse energy, originates from reversing life and death and disrupting the order of yin and yang. It has an instinctive fear of heavenly lightning, which represents order, and was almost struck to death, thus entering a state of inertia.

Waste and corpse odor.

Zhang Chengyi cursed under his breath. He felt that even if he didn't lock it in, the corpse energy would really dissipate on its own.

"Xiaoqian, don't let them eat all the Dragon Soul. Find a way to extract the Pudu Cihang from inside," he said expressionlessly.

When the corpse energy is not active, it becomes difficult to control the body. Forget about flying, even walking will be unsteady, and micro-management such as making facial expressions is out of the question.

Fortunately, verbal communication doesn't matter. With the translation function of the mod itself, even if he turns into a slime that can only fart, he can still communicate normally with anything.

He had tried it. There was a world with an X-beast theme where magic involved communicating with elemental spirits. He logged into a minotaur who couldn't cast spells, but he could still indirectly release magic by communicating with the elemental spirits that were everywhere by mooing.

A player who cosplays as an orc, a loyal fan of a certain Sega brand.

"Yes, Master." Nie Xiaoqian released one hand, and with the other hand, she reached out, grasped, and pulled, and the centipede demon soul, with its dim soul and mutilated body, was pulled out.

The resentment that originally belonged to the dragon vein reluctantly dispersed, transforming into countless black specks that surged into the bodies of the female ghosts.

This is not a good thing. Cursed by the dragon soul, they will not only be unlucky, but their future achievements will also be affected. They can only be reborn as animals.

The reason why that fat old man Zhang Tianshi didn't kill the Dragon Soul is now clear.

Xiaoqian looks so majestic!

A strange thought flashed through Zhang Chengyi's mind, and then he said, "Let's take Pudu Cihang with us and return to Lanruo Temple."

He needed to go back and sleep for a while to let the corpse energy in his body calm down. No matter how useless he was, he was still part of the game and couldn't just ignore it.

We also need to consider the issue of heavenly lightning.

It's not his own energy, which is somewhat similar to having a foreign internal force in the martial arts world. Even if he can use the modifier's ability to hurt others or himself, and explode with others by relying on his invincibility and steel body, he will be fine anyway.

However, when facing the source of this energy, one will only harm oneself and not the enemy, and may even aid the enemy.

If he really wants to challenge the immortals and gods in the future, he must solve the problem of uncontrollable heavenly thunder. Otherwise, if any of the gods of the Heavenly Thunder Department sends one out, he will explode. How can he play then?

Chapter 259 Going to the Underworld

One year later, at Lanruo Temple.

"Snap! Sizzle!"

The heavenly lightning on Zhang Chengyi's palm dissipated and escaped once again. He frowned and sighed.

It still didn't work.

As expected, the heavenly lightning was not something a zombie could easily control. Even if he could use his reaction to the heavenly lightning and the corpse energy to drive the heavenly lightning and injure both himself and the enemy, any slightly more precise control would cause it to dissipate due to the zombie's body and the corpse energy.

The mutually exclusive and irreconcilable energies cannot be forcibly controlled together, but his identity as a zombie requires him to control his body through corpse energy. Without corpse energy, he is just a hard corpse, so what use is controlling the heavenly lightning?

Even if they took a different approach and used the corpse energy to act as the outer shell for guiding the heavenly lightning, they were still stuck on how to deal with the external heavenly lightning.

But zombies are powerless against heavenly lightning; this is practically the nature of the world, and they can't escape it.

"Let's go to the underworld first."

Zhang Chengyi temporarily gave up. He felt that coming up with a second way to use heavenly lightning would probably take a long time. He might as well go and deal with the underworld, avenge his female ghost, and then see if there was a way to deal with the bewitching soup.

Last year, we captured Pudu Cihang. Following the method left by Zhang Tianshi for entering the underworld, a thousand-year-old demon soul can take the path of the underworld to the Valley of Extreme Yin, which is enough to take him to the underworld.

Nie Xiaoqian had already found out about the situation of the rotten fish and shrimp in the underworld. The strongest Yama King was only slightly stronger than the Black Mountain Demon. Now, even if the two of them were combined, they might not be able to defeat Nie Xiaoqian. Going down there would be nothing more than a massacre.

It just so happens that the female ghosts are still lacking some talent to evolve. Go down and deal with those two small fry, Yama and the Black Mountain Demon, and find some female ghosts who don't want to be reincarnated. Evolving them in the underworld is the same thing.

As a zombie, he should be more suited to an environment filled with yin energy.

However, considering that he should use the Heavenly Thunder sparingly when entering the Underworld, he stayed at Lanruo Temple for a year to study the Heavenly Thunder after waking up from a month's sleep.

After all, the underworld is full of wandering spirits, mostly ordinary people, and a single careless move could result in the deaths of many.

Unfortunately, after more than half a year, nothing was gained.

No, it's not like he gained nothing. At least his state of being hit by lightning twice has darkened. It's not that he survived the lightning tribulation; it's that he messed up the lightning tribulation.

I reckon there won't be any more demons or monsters facing tribulations in this world anymore.

From this perspective, the tribulation lightning is not really a world setting like the Heavenly Dao, but more like a punishment mechanism created by gods and Buddhas.

Zhang Chengyi shook his head, clearing his mind of the jumbled thoughts, and reduced the amount of heavenly lightning within him to the lowest level. He said, "Xiaoqian."

Nie Xiaoqian drifted over from afar, her yin energy and the crackling lightning in the air making her voice sound distorted: "Master."

"Pack your things, get ready to go to the underworld." Zhang Chengyi didn't need anything and could leave at any time, but the female ghosts did have belongings.

"Yes, sir."

-----------------

Half an hour later, near the dry well near Lanruo Temple.

"Squeak!"

Nie Xiaoqian held the demon soul of Pudu Cihang in her hand, letting the giant centipede writhe wildly. Without changing her expression, she made a hand seal with one hand, and the yin energy slowly poured into the bottom of the well.

She wasn't a person of great spiritual power, yet she still managed to open the path to the Valley of Extreme Yin.

"Whoosh!" A cold wind rose up, unlike the wind blown by the female ghosts. This wind came from the underworld, carrying a chilling scent that seemed to penetrate the soul.

"That's enough, sir."

Nie Xiaoqian threw the demon soul she was holding down.

"Let's go." Zhang Chengyi pulled the female ghosts back into his body and jumped into the well. The dry well, which was not very deep to begin with, now seemed to stretch to infinity. He felt himself falling continuously, time blurred, and his sense of distance lost.

He could clearly see the centipede beneath his feet falling, but he couldn't see his surroundings; it was pitch black.

I don't know how long I fell, but suddenly I felt like I was rising. Then my feet touched the ground, and the surroundings became brighter. There was fog everywhere.

The centipede landed not far away, flipped over on the ground, and quickly swam away into the distance.

Zhang Chengyi followed quietly. The Yin Road is not the underworld, but a road from the mortal world to the underworld. No one knows exactly how it came to be, but people with Taoist skills can help ghosts pass on by either sending them to heaven to take the heavenly road to the underworld, or sending them to the Yin Road to enter the underworld through the Valley of Extreme Yin.

Of the two methods, taking the Yin path is very risky. The Valley of Extreme Yin has many twists and turns, and once you lose your way, you will disappear completely. The same applies to ghosts; once you go down, there is no turning back.

However, even with just intuition, Pudu Cihang, a thousand-year-old demon soul, could find the location of reincarnation.

Zhang Chengyi followed the giant centipede, turning left and right in the fog. According to his sense of time, they ran for at least several hours before the surrounding fog gradually dissipated, revealing a cliff.

Pudu Cihang quickened his pace, leaped off the cliff, and disappeared without a trace.

Zhang Chengyi looked down, but still couldn't see the bottom of the cliff. He hesitated for a moment, not because he was worried about what would happen if he jumped down, but mainly because he was curious about this dark path and wanted to try to spray out the corpse energy to explore it.

But then he thought about how Inuyasha had messed things up and even destroyed the entire Underworld, so he sighed and decided to find out later.

He then jumped down into the Valley of Extreme Yin.

Although he jumped down, he felt as if he was rising. Then his body was flipped over, and he exhaled a little corpse energy to catch his body. Only then did he realize that he was in a gray, hazy place.

"I'm so hungry, so hungry."

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Snapped!"

The spirits of various shapes lined up, driven forward by the Yaksha, and the long procession stretched as far as the eye could see.

This scene is somewhat reminiscent of the afterlife in the Dragon Ball world.

Zhang Chengyi thought that the scene was much more cruel. In the Dragon Ball world, the souls either had a ring on their heads or were a clump of souls. In this underworld, the ghosts died more and more tragically than the last, and if they made a sound or walked too slowly, they would be whipped by the Yaksha.

"Where did these zombies come from?"

"Could there be another problem...?"

Ghosts won't mistake zombies for ghosts, but if they startle the spirits and disrupt the cycle of reincarnation, Yama, the King of Hell, will punish them severely.

The Yakshas were unsure what to do with the suddenly appearing zombie. One of them stepped forward, raised his whip, and lashed out, saying, "Get out of the way!"

"Snapped!"

Zhang Chengyi raised his hand to grab it, but grasped nothing. The whip pierced straight through his body and rushed towards the soul within him. At the critical moment, Nie Xiaoqian raised her hand, grabbed the whip, and emerged from her body. With a tug, the yaksha who had attacked was immediately pulled over and dragged along the ground for a distance before kneeling before her.

Nie Xiaoqian snatched the whip back and lashed out at him.

"Snapped!"

"Ah!" the Yaksha screamed, rolling and crawling on the ground. The Yakshas not only did not come forward to help their companion, but instead retreated a few steps.

"It's the Ghost King of Lanruo!"

"Quickly, quickly go back and report to Lord Yama!"

Chapter 260 Is this considered a confession?

"Wow, it's Lanruo Ghost King! Retreat! Retreat!"

The yakshas were in an uproar, and then ran even further away.

In previous years, Yama, the King of Hell, sent many Yakshas to invite the female ghost of Lanruo Temple. Later, he sent Yakshas to attack Lanruo Temple. Nie Xiaoqian killed the most Yakshas.

The name of the Ghost King of Lanruo is absolutely renowned in the underworld.

The Yakshas ran away without incident, and even the long line of ghosts wanted to take the opportunity to escape.

"Help them maintain order."

Zhang Chengyi instructed that he was there to cause trouble, but had no intention of disrupting the balance of the underworld.

The decrease in ghosts in the mortal realm is somewhat unsettling for him, but since he can descend to the underworld, it doesn't really matter. If things were to return to the chaotic state of the underworld decades ago, where spirits could return to the mortal realm at will and become ghosts whenever they wanted, with monsters roaming freely, he would actually find that unpleasant.

Ultimately, he was a person in his past life, and he has a natural affinity for humans.

"Whoosh!" Countless female ghosts surged out of his body, and a terrifying gust of yin wind swept across the Yellow Springs Road from the Underworld to the River of Forgetfulness.

In an instant, the spirits were blown about, and when they could clearly see the female ghost floating in the sky at intervals, the noisy road to the underworld became quiet.
