After hearing Ji Yuan's words, even though there was no magical light appearing, the judge was still very stressed and quickly apologized with a smile.
"Returning to the Immortal Chief, there have been frequent wars in recent years and countless people have died. Beiling County has changed hands in the past two years. It is no longer under the rule of Dongsheng Kingdom. Although the temple has not been destroyed, there are also heavenly things as guarantees, but the ghosts and gods of the Yin Division They are all severely injured. Lord Cheng Huang is in charge of the Yin Division and has a heavy burden. He is recuperating even though his golden body is damaged. This is not because he is sincerely neglecting the Immortal!"
It turns out that the wars in the past two years have caused Beiling County to change hands.
"Ji is presumptuous. Are you okay with this city god? If you need anything, even if Ji can't help, you can still go to the mountain with a message."
"Uh-huh, no, no, thank you, Immortal Chang, for remembering. Lord Cheng Huang is in retreat and recovering well. I'll wait for the little god in the lower realm, so I don't have to cause trouble to the upper realm."
"Okay, let's do that."
Looking at the judge's apologetic face, Ji Yuan also smiled, and then continued to look at Aze and the others.
Over there, Aze always had endless things to talk about when he got together with his relatives, not to mention having to talk to a few other dead ghosts about his four companions. Of course, he only chose the good things to talk about, not the bad ones, just to let these people know. Don't worry, ghost.
It was said that there was not much time, but Ji Yuan never urged Aze once. It was not until a full hour later that Aze began to say goodbye to his family. Both parties were reluctant but had to separate, and they both vaguely understood that they had met this time. After that, maybe there is really a separation between yin and yang, and there is no chance to see each other again.
"Aze... don't come to this place again!"
"Yes, Aze, this is the underworld, don't come here again!"
"Yes, Aze, didn't you say you were going to find Aaron? When you see that kid, tell him not to think about coming to the underworld."
"That's right, my Ani is the same. If you're interested, you can just light up the incense sticks during the holidays."
"And Agu and his brothers, if they dare to come, break their legs!"
With tears in his eyes, Aze nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, yeah, I will tell them, I will tell them!"
Mr. Zhuang glanced at Ji Yuan and Jin Xiu from a distance, pulled Aze aside and whispered.
"Aze, I don't think that girl looks very much like an immortal, but this gentleman is really a great immortal. If you have the opportunity to follow him to become an immortal, you must follow his teachings and not make mistakes. If you don't have the chance, I won't ask you to be a good person." People, remember what you do and what you don’t do.”
The old man was very clever. Aze never called Ji Yuan master from the beginning to the end, and Ji Yuan never called him apprentice. Obviously, he didn't look like a master and apprentice.
"Aze took note of it!"
…
Another quarter of an hour passed before Ji Yuan and Jin Xiu waited until Aze, who took three steps and turned around, came over. The ghost over there walked a few steps and then stopped at the edge of Yincha. Just looking at the expressions of both sides, it didn't look like a human and a ghost at all. , just like a wanderer about to travel far away.
"Mr. Ji, I'm back..."
"Have you all said goodbye?"
"Um!"
Ji Yuan nodded.
"Then let's go."
As he spoke, Ji Yuan also bowed his hands to the ghost who was saluting here, and left with Jin Xiu and the reluctant A Ze.
When leaving, there was no need to wait slowly for Yin Chai to find someone, so the speed was much faster than before. Not long after, Ji Yuan and the other three, accompanied by the judge, arrived at the gate of hell together.
Seeing the three people about to leave, the judge also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but at this time, Ji Yuan suddenly looked at the Yinsi Palace building in Guimen Pass and asked Jin Xiudao beside him.
"Miss Jin, how long has it been since no one in Jiufeng Mountain has visited this lower realm?"
These words made the judge next to him stunned for a moment. Why didn't this immortal's tone sound like the immortal from Jiufeng Mountain? Could it be that he was a hidden immortal in this world
It was impossible for Jin Xiu to know exactly what happened, but he had a rough idea, so he thought about it and answered.
"It seems that in my impression, almost no one on the mountain comes to the Yin Division. Although I have only been up the mountain for a few years, I also know that people on the mountain can only go to various spiritual gardens. Who comes here? It has nothing to do with it."
"Haha, that's right. There are so few related things that the city god in this place doesn't even know there are signs of being possessed."
"what? What?"
As soon as Ji Yuan said these words, the judge and Jin Xiu nearby were shocked, and the ghost soldiers nearby were also at a loss. Looking at their reactions, Ji Yuan understood that these ghosts and gods did not know anything, at least they knew only a limited amount.
"Immortal, Immortal Chief, how can you say this nonsense!"
The judge looked uneasy and repeatedly raised his hands to Ji Yuan, but sneered.
"The City God is the main god of the Yin Division. A single move can affect the whole body. If something happens to him, it will slowly spread to all of you. Now even a gatekeeper has a problem. It can be seen that the things happening to the City God are not small!"
As he said that, Ji Yuan looked at the judge and then around him.
"Ji originally thought that the ghost gate was an important place, and the lack of defense was because the ghosts and gods had been at ease here for a long time, so they were derelict in their duties. Now it seems that it is probably due to lack of manpower, right?"
It’s been so long since I’ve been in the Yin Division, and I’ve even been to a ghost town, but Ji Yuan hasn’t seen many ghosts and other organized ghosts in the Yin Division. There are only seven or eight who are always with him, let alone other divisions. The great god appears.
Ji Yuan kept his eyes on the judge. If there was anything wrong with the other party, he would immediately take action. The expression on the latter's face kept changing. After a long silence, he finally gritted his teeth and said.
"Immortal Chief, to be honest, the ghost soldiers of our Yin Division have been dying at an abnormal speed over the years. Even if we frequently choose good ghosts to replenish them, it is not enough. Most of the great gods of each division are also weak, and there are many people who have died! Lord City God said this is because The world is not peaceful, causing the Yin Division to be turbulent. His vitality is also greatly damaged, and the Yin Division is also damaged, but... "
The judge looked up at Ji Yuan, his eyes showing uneasiness.
"I have never doubted Lord Cheng Huang, but I always feel that something is wrong in my heart, but I can't explain what is wrong... The evil demons in the world have long been destroyed by the immortals in the heavens. From now on, the evil demons have not been born, so how could Lord City God..."
In the judge's impression, the immortals in heaven are the masters of heaven and earth. Although they do not interfere in the affairs of the mortal world, if something big happens to the underworld, the consequences of anger will be extremely serious.
"Just go and take a look and you'll find out."
Ji Yuan didn't have any burden at all and walked towards the Yinsi Hall. He didn't worry about whether the judge was lying to him or whether Jin Xiu and Aze were in danger. The judge and the ghost soldiers looked at each other and finally followed together. superior.
Walking through the service halls of various departments in the underworld, I saw only a few yin servants busy, but few ghosts and gods in charge. Even if there were, they were a little sluggish, and there was an ominous aura lingering around, but it was too similar to yin energy, so most people couldn't tell it. Relatively speaking, the judge who had been following him was actually in the best condition.
There is also a City God's Hall in the Yin Division that is exactly the same as in the Yangjian City, but at this moment the door is closed and the flow of magic light is restricted. However, under the eyes of Ji Yuan Dharma, no matter how well hidden it is, the evil energy cannot escape.
"City God of Beiling County, I'm thinking of fate, but I'm an immortal cultivator from outside. I'm here to pay you a special visit. Can you come out and meet me?"
Ji Yuan's voice was calm and powerful, and the clear voice reverberated through the various halls of the Yin Division, arousing the curiosity of the surrounding Yins and ghosts. Gradually, many ghosts and gods appeared outside the Yin Division Hall.
But there was no response in the Yinsi Hall.
"Beiling County City God, Ji is here to visit sincerely. What you are doing does not seem to be the way to treat guests?"
"The Immortal came from the upper world, and the little god should have swept the bed to greet him, but now the little god's vitality has been greatly damaged and his golden body has collapsed. He is afraid of colliding with the immortal's body. I really don't dare to meet him, and I still hope to see the immortal Haihan!"
"What if Ji has to meet me?"
As soon as Ji Yuan said these words, there were ghosts and gods around him shouting.
"This immortal is so rude!" "Yes, although you are an immortal in heaven, this is the underworld!"
"You should be careful when speaking, Immortal!"
Ji Yuan looked at these ghosts and gods from the corner of his eye. Even though they were weak, they were still brave. However, some of them had already shown their ferocious looks. Originally, the ghosts and gods in the underworld were quite ferocious and scary, but at this moment, their ferocity revealed an unknown demonic aura.
The voice of the City God also came from the Yinsi Hall.
"This Immortal Chief, the Nine Peaks Upper Realm has already made an agreement with us and other ghosts and gods. The Immortal of Jiufeng Mountain will not be involved in the affairs of our Yin Division. Does the Immortal Chief want to break the agreement?"
"It's just a meeting, how can the city god say it is so serious!"
Ji Yuan smiled, ignoring the ferocious looks around him, and patted Jin Xiu and A Ze who were huddled beside him to comfort them.
A problematic city god is not qualified to negotiate any agreement. Even if he still wants to discuss it, he is planning on someone who is not from Jiufeng Mountain.
"Squeak~~"
The gate of the City God's Hall was opened from the inside, and a tall ghost and god wearing a soap robe and official uniform walked out, his divine light shining majestically.
"Since the Immortal Chief wants to see you, I have no choice but to come out and see you!"
When the surrounding ghosts and gods saw the long-lost Lord City God, they all saluted and greeted him.
"Meet the Lord City God!" "Meet the Lord City God!"
Even the judge showed excitement on his face. When he saw the City God in such high spirits at this moment, the uneasiness in his heart also receded. Only Ji Yuan's blue eyes looked at the City God.
"Hey, it's even worse than what Ji thought. I didn't expect that the City God could turn into a demon, or that the God of Earth has endured too much. It's so sad..."
The city god in front of Ji Yuan swept his eyes across the three of Ji Yuan and said with a smile.
"What is the immortal saying? How can I..."
Without saying anything, the next moment a dark hand stretched out from the City God's belly and clawed hard at Ji Yuan, but Ji Yuan seemed to have been prepared. With his left hand, he pinched the three-finger shaking mountain seal in the magic method of heaven and earth, and the thunder light of the breath of heaven. Flashing past, the Mountain Shaking Seal directly faced the claw.
"Bang...boom..."
"Uh-huh..."
With one blow, the magic light burst out. Ji Yuan could not move even a step, but the city god's divine light was scattered. The moment he flew back, the entire city god's palace was filled with black smoke and demonic energy, and there were even roaring sounds.
"The matter has come to this, I can't let you go, you all will die!"
"Boom boom boom boom..."
In the City God's Hall, just like the City God's Temple in the Yangjian, a huge statue of the City God appeared, filled with demonic energy. It was expanding its body little by little as it stood up.
"The gate of hell is locked, no one can escape! In this underworld, let alone a little monk like you, what can the real immortal do to me when he comes? Hehehehehahahahaha... "
The roar of the City God exorcising demons shook the entire Yin Division, and all the ghosts howled for a while. Even the ghosts and gods of the Yin Division were stunned and retreated one after another. Many ghosts and gods were directly stimulated by the demonic energy and showed evil signs.
"How could it be like this? How could it be like this!" "Why did Lord Cheng Huang become like this?"
"What should I do?"
"Don't take any chances, everyone, prepare to fight to the death with the Immortal!"
…
Ji Yuan smiled, and a golden string appeared in his hand.
"That's not a big deal. Ji has never used this treasure since it was made. Let me try it on you."
As Ji Yuan spoke, he casually flicked the golden rope, and the rope that bound the immortals instantly turned into long golden dragons in the dark wind and evil energy. Golden figures filled the sky, making this ghostland of the underworld look extremely sacred.
"What is this? This..."
The next moment, golden shadows fell all over the sky, locking all the demonic energy in an instant, surrounding the City God and several problematic ghosts and gods. The former's body became smaller and smaller under the entanglement of the golden shadows, and he could not even make a roar. Come out, the latter will be even more defenseless.
In less than a breath, the City God and several ghosts and gods were tied together with a golden rope in the dilapidated City God's Hall.
Ji Yuan looked at the palace with indifferent eyes, and then answered slowly.
"This is the fairy rope."
