#1912 - Face Hades!
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
In the void, the Underworld God roared and came to a halt. The dense array of heavy cannons on the nine decks turned in unison, finally pointing towards the sky.
“Bang!”
Accompanied by a loud noise, all the heavy cannons fired simultaneously, black-gold energy surging out, forming a massive golden array in the air.
At the same time, thousands of armored giants flew above the Underworld God, assuming a kneeling posture.
In the next moment, the golden array slowly began to rotate, and an armor suit completely enveloped in golden energy descended from within the array. Unlike the other armors, this armor was only less than two meters tall. The surface of the armor was inlaid with countless glittering and translucent crystals, and it carried a long sword on its back. If Ji Dongfeng were here, he would definitely recognize that this was the long sword that appeared in the memory fragments when he touched the Taotie Bone.
“Greetings, Lord Underworld God!” the thousands of armored giants shouted in unison.
Hearing this, the Underworld God nodded. A beam of light shot out from the armor's eye sockets, instantly enveloping all the armored giants.
“The number is down by a hundred. Did the plan fail?” the Underworld God said coldly.
“That's right. The aura of the Remnant Soul of the Eastern Sage suddenly appeared. According to the plan you laid out, we immediately dispatched a Tier 3 team to enter. As a result… apart from Liuyun, all the remaining members of the Hunting Squad were dealt with by a being called Ji Dongfeng. The aura of the Remnant Soul of the Eastern Sage has also become attached to this person.” A gray armored giant said in a deep voice.
“Liuyun, who failed the mission, has already been recovered, Lord. According to our observations, this Ji Dongfeng is extremely skilled in swordsmanship and the use of lightning. His lightning techniques can even ignore your energy… In addition to this, he also seems to be proficient in some illusions.”
Hearing this, the Underworld God sneered and said, “I was just casually going to destroy a Hong Tree to vent my anger. I didn't expect to encounter such a pleasant surprise upon my return. Let's go, take me to see this Ji Dongfeng.”
As soon as the words fell, led by the gray armored giant, the Underworld God entered the ninth deck of the Underworld God.
“How did this being called Ji Dongfeng enter the Wandering Small World?” the Underworld God asked.
“As far as I know, the small world accidentally established a connection with other spaces. In addition to Ji Dongfeng, there are also two other beings who have entered here, one named Xiao Ling and one named Xian Datong. However, unlike Ji Dongfeng, Xiao Ling and Xian Datong are recorded in the Underworld God System's memory banks, but this Ji Dongfeng, the Underworld God System can only detect his name.” The gray armored giant quickly said.
“Interesting. It seems this Ji Dongfeng has a significant background.”
“This person is extremely strange. According to the Underworld God System's calculations, his strength is at most only Tier 4. We were already cautious enough to send out a Tier 3 team, but after entering a battle state, the combat power he displayed was almost comparable to Tier 2.”
As they spoke, the Underworld God passed through one black-gold gate after another and stood on an array.
“Boom!”
In the next moment, the array activated, and the Underworld God arrived in an independent space. In this space, there was a stone giant as tall as a hundred meters, the giant's hands joined together, holding an irregular stone block.
“Lord, which area should we project?” the gray armor said in a low voice.
Hearing this, the Underworld God pondered for a moment and said, “There's no need to project. This time, I'll observe directly.”
“Observe directly?! I don't know what impact that will have on the Wandering Small World…”
“Impact? What impact could there be? It will simply make the beings inside feel their insignificance. My intuition tells me that this Ji Dongfeng is my last chance to obtain the Taotie inheritance.”
As soon as the words fell, the Underworld God's main body detached from the armor and came to the side of the irregular stone block, bringing his head close to the stone block to observe.
At the same time, within the Wandering Small World, Ji Dongfeng once again rushed towards the opportunity, when he noticed movement from the Xuanyuan Linglong Pagoda halfway.
“Ding, refining complete. Congratulations on obtaining the Underworld God Armor Energy Core!”
【Underworld God Armor Energy Core (Supreme Grade): Special item, use to randomly obtain a skill book related to armor】
“Ding, use successful, congratulations on obtaining the passive skill Armor Insight!”
【Armor Insight (Supreme Grade Passive Skill): After learning, can enable oneself to discern the weaknesses of various armors, increasing damage dealt to armor by 100%】
“Ding, the Domineering Lightning effect is activated, the Armor Insight effect is changed to increasing damage dealt to armor by 1000%”
“All members of the Underworld God Hunting Squad use the Underworld God's energy, and the armor they wear seems to come from an ancient ruin. Regardless of the being's cultivation level, as long as they wear this armor, they can obtain extremely powerful strength. More importantly, this armor is transformed from energy, and the Underworld God's energy is almost endless. This also means that as long as the Underworld God is willing, it can create countless armors.”
“What's the use of having armor without beings to control it?” Ji Dongfeng said.
“That's the key issue. The Underworld God leads this Hunting Squad, attacking Hong Trees everywhere. Each time it takes down a Hong Tree, the old, weak, sick, and disabled are all refined using cruel methods, leaving the young and strong, who are then bewitched to control the armor. In addition to this, the Underworld God often uses the excuse of helping the Hong Trees to clear away filthy things, entering the Hong Trees openly and honestly. After obtaining enough rewards, it defects at the last moment, helping the filthy things attack the Hong Tree's beings.” Ying Long said.
“In short, this Underworld God Hunting Squad plunders opportunities and treasures everywhere, only pursuing its own interests. To be precise, it's the interests of this Underworld God. In order to achieve its goals, it resorts to any means, even if it means slaughtering billions of beings… I've simply estimated that over these thousands of years, the number of beings who have died at the hands of the Underworld God Hunting Squad is not much less than the number of those who have died at the hands of the filthy things.”
Hearing this, Ji Dongfeng frowned slightly and said, “They roam in the Hong Forest. How come the Hong Lord old fart hasn't taken action to deal with them?”
“Boom!”
In the next moment, just as Ying Long was about to speak, the entire Wandering Small World suddenly trembled. Ji Dongfeng looked up and was shocked to discover that a huge face occupied the entire sky, and those blood-red eyes were turning left and right, finally looking towards his location.
“Damn, what kind of interstellar giant is this?” Seeing this, Ji Dongfeng's expression changed slightly. At this moment, those two eyeballs almost occupied one-third of the sky!
“This is the Underworld God. I just forgot to say… It's not that it's huge, but that this Wandering Small World has long been forcibly shrunk countless times by the Underworld God using various means. It's currently placed on the Underworld God's warship, the Underworld God, and is observed by people 24 hours a day, just like a zoo. The beings on the Underworld God often come here to observe the beings of various races, while also observing the Eastern Sage Remnant Soul, searching for the Taotie inheritance… It's just that in the past, they all used projection methods, but this time, it seems that the Underworld God is directly observing with its eyes…”
