According to what Zhao Li knew, the Death Rod was not invincible. Its biggest weakness was the fishing line. If one had enough strength, or even a strong enough will, to endure the pain from within the soul, there would be a chance to break the fishing line and escape the hook. Of course, there were also magical weapons that could cut the fishing line, and even magical weapons that were not afraid of the Death Hook, which attacked the soul.
For example, those soul treasures that have the power to guard the soul can forcibly block the hook of death.
But obviously, the Red Robe Ghost King could not do either of these two things. The Death Fishing Rod in Yi Tianxing's hand was a divine artifact of creation, integrated into the origin of heaven and earth, and was so tough that breaking it would be difficult enough to reach a point of despair.
Under normal circumstances, with the Xuan-level Death Hook, the Red Robe Ghost King is indeed capable of breaking the fishing line and breaking free, but this time, he couldn't.
"I want to die. Give me a quick death and let me die with dignity."
The red-robed ghost king said with a deathly pale face.
His expression was filled with despair; he really wanted to die.
He had just cultivated his magical powers today, and thought he would be able to kill all enemies, but he didn't expect that he would get such a result. He was beaten up first, and then stuck into the ground upside down. He couldn't escape even if he wanted to. If he ran out, he would be hooked back by a hook. He was desperate.
"I'm so miserable. I really am miserable."
The red-robed ghost king looked up at the sky and felt that if the underworld were to select the most miserable and unlucky ghost king, he would definitely be among them, and would be among the top.
I am the Fire Ghost King, and I am really not an unlucky ghost.
"Humph, you want to die? It's not that easy. First, you have to go to the Eighteen Layers of Hell, and then I will kill your soul and annihilate it. Devour the living soul, murder the ghost messenger, snatch the Yin-Yang Order, occupy the gate of hell, no matter which one you choose, you are dead."
Zhao Li walked over and said with a sneer.
This is a crime punishable by death, and it is unforgivable. If he doesn't die, then who will
"Brother, can you please give this red-robed ghost king to me?" At this moment, Nannan spoke.
"here you are?"
When Yi Tianxing heard this, he was slightly stunned. He looked at Nannan, looked at her carefully, then looked at the red-robed Ghost King, thinking about something.
"This is a serious criminal. Devouring souls is a taboo in the underworld. He cannot continue to live. Once he survives, it will be a huge hidden danger for his future." Zhao Li hurriedly spoke to dissuade him.
What a joke, if a ferocious guy like the Red Robe Ghost King really finds a chance to escape, it will be a disaster for the future. The harm caused is too great. They absolutely cannot agree to this. They would rather not let him go through hell, but immediately destroy his soul. Let his soul fly away. This is the best result.
"Wait a minute. Since I have captured this Red Robe Ghost King, he is my trophy and I have more rights to deal with everything. If I can capture him, I can suppress him. If he wants to escape from me, he can't do it unless I agree."
Yi Tianxing glanced at Zhao Li and said calmly. At the same time, with a thought, the Death Fishing Rod had already disappeared with the Red Robe Ghost King and was sent to the Hongmeng Heavenly Emperor Tower. He was still hooked by the Death Fishing Hook and hung in the air. It was almost impossible to escape.
"Fellow Daoist Yi, you'd better be careful. The Red Robe Ghost King must be killed, and the Yin-Yang Order on him must be returned. Of course, the Ghost King was captured by you, and we are willing to exchange those things for the corresponding price." Zhao Li said again.
This is the most important thing. The Yin-Yang Order is a symbol of the ghost's identity and must not be easily lost. Once it is obtained by someone with ulterior motives, the consequences can be seen from the Red Robe Ghost King this time. This is a ghost king who dares to set foot in the world of the living and seduce the souls of living beings. Once such things happen frequently, there will be unrest in the world of the living, and even the order of the underworld will undergo tremendous changes.
That kind of situation is definitely not what the ghost wants to see.
"Don't worry, the Yin-Yang Order is useless to me. It belongs to the ghost messenger, so I will naturally return it to you. As for paying a price, that is completely unnecessary."
Yi Tianxing said with a faint smile.
Although the Red Robe Ghost King didn't know why Nannan wanted it, he certainly couldn't give it to the ghost messenger. In this case, there was no need to hold the Yin-Yang Order in his hand. Instead of exchanging it for some rare treasures, it would be better to exchange it for the favor of the ghost messenger's forces. In some things, the ghost messenger can also play a key role.
Human relationships are more important than treasures.
Especially the ghost messenger.
"Thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Yi." Zhao Li heard this and nodded. He was willing to accept this favor.
Human relationships are based on give and take, and that’s what human relationships are.
Zhao Li was naturally willing to make friends with a strong man like Yi Tianxing, and the closer the relationship, the better. Of course, he was very happy that he could get the Yin-Yang Order back so easily.
As for the Red Robe Ghost King, he has been suppressed by Yi Tianxing. Judging from the previous situation, the possibility of him escaping is absolutely close to zero. In this kind of matter, it is not impossible to give him some face.
Anyway, as long as the Red Robe Ghost King is dead, it's fine.
"The city of Red Flame is in complete chaos now. The fire that the Red Robe Ghost King just set off has almost killed and dispersed all the ghost soldiers. There is no resistance left. What should we do with this city now?"
The paper-folding craftsman spoke.
It can be seen that the city is already many times more deserted than at the beginning. A large number of residents in the city have fled, and the ghost army has also fled. Now that the Red Robe Ghost King has been captured, the most important thing is to whom this Red Flame City will belong.
"The treasure house of the Red Robe Ghost King in Chiyan City belongs to me. I don't need this city, so I can give it up." Yi Tianxing said. After a fight, it is impossible not to have spoils. The biggest spoils are obviously in the Ghost King's treasure house. That is the Ghost King's life collection, and there must be a lot of rare treasures collected. As long as we can get it, it can be said that it is definitely a great harvest.
Of course, he couldn't give up this easily.
"My Lord, find the location of the treasure house."
A burly man came over quickly. He was a Heavenly Emperor Dragon Guard. He could feel the strong evil spirit on his body, almost condensing into substance. In the previous battle, the slaughter caused by the three thousand Dragon Guards was terrifying.
"Okay, give the order to guard the treasure house. No one is allowed to approach, no matter who it is. Anyone who violates the order will be killed without mercy."
Yi Tianxing nodded and gave instructions quickly.
"yes!!"
Zhenlongwei agreed without hesitation.
There would never be any rebuttal or discount to Yi Tianxing's orders.
"This Red Flame City was conquered almost by Fellow Daoist Yi alone, so the treasure house naturally belongs to Fellow Daoist. As for this Red Flame City, it belongs to us, the Ghost Messengers. Of course, Fellow Daoist Yi cannot take the Ghost Gate with him. This is the treasure of the underworld."
Zhao Li continued.
For them, the most important thing is revenge, to find the Red Robe Ghost King to regain his face. To retrieve the Yin-Yang Order, to retrieve the Ghost Gate. This is the most important thing, and the Ghost Gate is the most important. It is the gateway to the living world, the treasure of the underworld, and can only be controlled by the ghost messenger. Otherwise, it will have a huge impact on both the Yin and Yang worlds. The consequences are serious.
"Of course, it is best to keep the gates of hell in the hands of the ghost messenger." Yi Tianxing said with a smile: "Now the city is basically stable, and the treasure house has been found, why don't we go to the treasure house together to take a look."
"Then I'd rather obey than be respectful. I heard that the Red Robe Ghost King has been entering the world of the living one after another, and he is also famous in the underworld for collecting rare treasures. There should be many treasures in his treasury. This time I can broaden my horizons." Zhao Li said with anticipation.
If you can't get the things in the treasure house, you may as well take a look at them and satisfy your eyes, which is also good.
Of course, no one knows what exactly is there except the Red Robe Ghost King.
The treasure house is in the city lord's mansion. However, it is also built underground. It uses the most advanced materials, and it is isolated from divine consciousness detection. The restrictions set up can block magical powers such as wall-penetrating techniques. It is almost impossible to enter the treasure house silently.
There are Dragon Guards guarding in front of the treasury.
Seeing these Dragon Guards, Zhao Li and the others all straightened their faces and secretly became solemn. They had witnessed the strength of these Dragon Guards before. Each of them had terrifying strength at the Dharma Realm level. The most terrifying thing was that he found that these Dragon Guards were mainly body-refining. Among the body-refining warriors of the same level, their combat power was invincible. This was almost a truth recognized by heaven and earth.
Among the same level, there are only a handful of people who can rival the physical cultivators. It's not absolute, maybe one or two are better, but that's just an exception.
It is not enough to affect the general proportion.
One or two of them would be terrifying, but there are three thousand of them, and they are Taoist soldiers.
Zhao Li could even estimate that if they wanted to, these Dragon Guards could definitely kill all the ghost messengers in the city. They were that powerful.
The door to the treasure house has been opened.
Then, a group of people followed Yi Tianxing into the treasure house.
The treasure house of the Red Robe Ghost King was not magnificent, but rather it was black in color. The entire treasure house was made of black material, and seemed to have a gloomy feeling.
But all around, there were huge luminous pearls inlaid, illuminating the treasury as brightly as day, and everything was clearly visible.
The first thing you can see is a large amount of ghost money piled up in the treasury. There seems to be light shining on the ghost money. There is no doubt that the ghost money is real and can be circulated outside.
"A lot of ghost money. I'm afraid the number of ghost money is no less than hundreds of millions. The Red Robe Ghost King's ability to plunder money is indeed extraordinary. The ghost money alone is an inestimable fortune."
Zhao Li's eyes lit up and he said in amazement.
This amount of ghost money is a huge sum.
