"Okay, in that case, let's get going. I'll lead the way, and you and Duoduo can just follow me."
"Yes, Grandmaster."
I bowed respectfully.
The news about the upcoming appearance of the Heavenly Demon Clan had already spread in the underworld. At this time, the defense of the underworld was even stricter.
We passed through several important places, such as Wangxiang Terrace and Lianhua Terrace, and the ghost officials guarding the passages checked us very strictly. I had Zushiye and Duoduo with me, so I didn't hide my Yang energy.
Therefore, when I entered those important places, I would often be harassed by some ghost officials. Some ghost officials even sensed the yang energy in me and, knowing that I was a mortal, would take me to the Palace of Hell without any explanation.
Fortunately, the master showed me the token of the Underworld Emperor Huang Feihu, and was able to take me through all the important places safely.
However, there were still some ghost officials who were afraid that I would come to the underworld to cause trouble, so they secretly followed the three of us.
The founder had sensed their presence a long time ago, but did not intervene.
"Just follow me, it's nothing." I said with a smile.
The Grand Master glared at the back and said coldly: "These guys are only capable of this. If they were in the world of the living, most of them would keep their tails between their legs and not be so arrogant."
I comforted the Grandmaster: "Old Master, just ignore them. If they want to follow me, then let them follow. The Land of Compassion is not a good place anyway. If they are not afraid of death, they can go in. Besides, the Land of Compassion is an ancient relic, and I am not qualified to occupy it alone."
The ancestor deliberately sped up his pace.
The mischievous ghost Duoduo's cultivation has reached the level of Ghost King, and his speed is still very fast.
As for me, I am able to circulate energy a few points faster than my ancestor.
"Good boy, your speed is really good." The ancestor said approvingly.
I chuckled and didn't say anything.
It took us about half a day to reach the Cliff of Resurrection.
It was a low, dark mountain that looked steep and steep. The mountain was surrounded by a light black mist, like a cumulonimbus cloud, which spread across the gray mountain.
As soon as we got here, we saw a long queue.
Those teams were lined up in a long row, and they were all made up of ghosts or souls.
As we all know, ghosts are formed by the evil transformation of souls. Most of the souls that appear in the world of the living are either searching for the ghost gate on their own or being saved by a wizard. Another type is that the souls are taken to the underworld by ghost messengers.
Of course, the ghosts that are taken away by the ghost messenger are usually people who have committed numerous crimes and done many evil things in their lifetime.
However, there was a long queue of ghosts or souls on the Cliff of Reincarnation, and the deathly aura and resentment on them had long disappeared.
Each ghost or soul has no spirituality at all, just like a shadow floating there, giving people a stupid and foolish feeling.
At the same time, those long teams were guarded by a large number of ghost officials to prevent any emergencies from happening.
The ghost or soul walked along a dirt-gray road towards the black hill.
There was a black cave entrance at the bottom of the hill, and to the right of the cave entrance stood a large black stone tablet.
The height of the stone tablet is about several dozen meters, like a small tower, and there are densely carved words on it, which seem to be a name or something.
Seeing me looking over there, the ancestor introduced: "Don't be surprised, that stone tablet is called the 'Soul-Stele', and the names engraved on it are all written in small seal characters. Ghosts or souls who want to enter the Cliff of Reincarnation must erase their names from their previous lives on the Soul-Stele. Only in this way can they be reincarnated."
So that's how it is.
While I was stunned, several ghost officials suddenly surrounded me.
"Who are you? How dare you come to the underworld to cause trouble at the Resurrection Cliff?"
A ghost official picked up a large underworld knife, pointed at us and shouted.
His eyes fell on me, with a look of surprise and cruelty in them.
It was obvious that he had already seen that I was a mortal.
The Grand Master said domineeringly: "Call Meng Po, the master of your Reincarnation Cliff, to come out."
It was obvious that the ghost official had some status in the Cliff of Resurrection.
He glanced at my ancestor indifferently and said unhappily, "Who do you think you are? You actually called our cliff master by his name. I think you are tired of living. Even the King of Hell would have to show some courtesy to our cliff master. You actually dared to shout here. You really don't know what's good for you."
It seems that this vicious ghost official doesn’t know my ancestor at all.
But it doesn't matter.
You have to know that the underworld is definitely not smaller than the world of the living. It is normal for people in such a large space not to know each other.
Moreover, the Soul-Returning Cliff is the last stop among the thirteen stops for ghosts in the underworld, and its location is relatively remote, so the ghost officials here are very unfamiliar with the ancestor.
"Little devil, how dare you speak to me like that? Do you know who I am?"
The ancestor was insulted by a small ghost official and immediately became unhappy. His ghost face became ferocious and he looked like he was puffing his beard and glaring.
"Humph, I don't care who you are. Since you dare to trespass into the Resurrection Cliff, you are not a good person."
The ugly ghost official said angrily.
As soon as he raised his hand, a dozen or so ghost officials standing in the distance gathered here.
Soon, they surrounded us.
"Grandmaster, I think we should not cause any more trouble." I leaned close to the Grandmaster and whispered.
Of course, I'm not afraid of these little ghosts. With my current level of cultivation and the ancient artifacts on me, I can even deal with the Hades Emperor Huang Feihu.
I just don't want to cause trouble. Besides, this is not the mortal world, it would be bad if there was too much noise.
"It's okay, Tianyi. Since your ancestor has brought you here, he won't let you suffer any injustice. Besides, I'm working in the underworld now, so I'm not really afraid of these little ghosts."
The Grandmaster said to me, "It looks like he's going to do something drastic."
I shrank my neck and said with a smile, "Grandmaster, you are really very angry."
The ugly ghost official on the side heard what the ancestor said and immediately became furious and said, "Asshole, who are you calling a little ghost? We are all ghost officials in the underworld, serving as officials. If you insult us like this, you are insulting Lord Yama. If Lord Yama finds out, you three will definitely be in big trouble."
Damn it, this little devil actually knows how to use his status as a superior to put pressure on us.
"How can you, a ghost official, speak like this? You don't know any manners at all."
The troublemaker Duoduo said unhappily, clenching his hands into fists.
I can see that, during the time she followed me in the mortal world, although her cultivation level didn't improve much, her Mandarin level was first-rate.
The ghost official looked at Duoduo, the troublemaker beside me, and said in a cold voice: "Little girl, you'd better be honest and don't say too much, otherwise I don't mind scattering your soul. You are such a little ghost, and you dare to shout at me. You really overestimate your own abilities."
In fact, Grandmaster, Duoduo and I didn't show off our abilities too much along the way, for fear of attracting the attention of some ghost officials in the underworld and avoiding trouble.
But not showing our strength doesn't mean we don't have it.
Besides, Duoduo is the Ghost King, the Grandmaster is a middle-stage Ghost Immortal, and I am already
It was the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage. It could be said that this ghost official could be destroyed in a matter of minutes.
Not only him, even if these dozen ghost officials come together, I have the confidence that I can handle it within a minute.
"You... you are shameless! How can you talk to me like that? Do you know who I am? I am the daughter of Huang Feihu, the Emperor of the Underworld."
Duoduo said unhappily.
After hearing what Duoduo said, the ghost was stunned for a moment, then he burst into laughter and said sarcastically: "Hahaha, you are such a weak ghost, and you say you are the daughter of Lord Hades. If you are the daughter of Lord Hades, then I am the grandson of Lord Hades."
Oh, something seems wrong. This generation...
Duoduo also realized it and said with a smile: "Big brother, did you hear that? He wants to be my son. But I don't want such a cocky son who doesn't know how to respect his mother."
Duoduo's words made me frown.
She is taking advantage of others, no, she is taking advantage of the "ghost official".
The ugly ghost official became extremely angry: "Ah, you little devil actually insulted me. Damn it, I will kill you ungrateful and troublesome guys."
"And you, a person from the mortal world, entering the underworld without permission is a capital crime, so you can't escape."
"Come, capture these three guys for me and send them to the Lord of the Cliff, so that he can deal with them."
At the command given by the ugly ghost official, more than ten ghost officials nearby gathered around.
The ancestor stood in front of us and released the ghost energy in his body at once.
The thick ghost energy was swirling like a dark black fog, instantly forming a cold and gloomy aura of a ghost.
Under the influence of this cold and gloomy aura, the ghost officials who wanted to rush forward immediately became obedient.
"He, he, he... What level of ghost is he? How can he be so powerful?"
"It looks like the Ghost King. No, it's not the Ghost King. I've seen the Ghost King before. He should be the Ghost Immortal."
"What? Ghost fairy. My Lord, how could a ghost fairy appear in the underworld? We haven't seen such a powerful ghost in the underworld for a long time."
The ghost officials looked at each other and started talking.
With a "quack" sound, a ghost official was affected by the cold and gloomy aura and the big sword in his hand fell directly to the ground, and his ghost body began to tremble.
The other ghost officials were also horrified.
When the ugly ghost official saw this scene, he felt the cold and gloomy aura and was frightened.
The ugly ghost official hurriedly took out a jade token from his bosom and crushed it.
"You... you... Even if you have ghosts and immortals, so what? When the cliff master Mengpo comes, none of you will be able to escape."
The ugly ghost official retreated a long way back.
The Grand Master stared at him coldly and prepared to attack.
At this moment, an angry shout suddenly came from the cave entrance on the other side of the black mountain: "Who are you who dare to come to our Soul-Returning Cliff to cause trouble? I think you are quite courageous."
Immediately afterwards, a black shadow with dark energy wrapped around it flew towards this side.
"Meng Po is here."
The mischievous Duoduo whispered to me and reminded me, "Don't worry, big brother, I have a very good relationship with Granny Meng."
Oh, now I remember that I had the honor of meeting Granny Meng on the street in front of Xiyuan Apartment. Granny Meng told me to take good care of the naughty girl Duoduo.
Well, I finally see clearly that the ugly ghost official is going to fall.
"Hehehe, you're in trouble now. Our Lord of the Cliff is here."
The ugly ghost official said with a smug look on his face.
