#417 - Chapter 425 The mysterious and terrifying Mr. Ghost, ten thousand years have passed

Amidst Jiang Ning's anticipation.

The soul wandering in the myriad realms was finally summoned by him.

The sounds of clashing metal and warhorses echoed.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~

The void of the Netherworld suddenly cracked open, splitting into a huge fissure.

From within the passage, an aura of invincible military might surged forth.

A meticulously arranged and well-trained army of a million soldiers marched forth from the myriad realms in a grand and imposing manner.

They wore black armor, were equipped with advanced weaponry, and rode black dragon steeds.

"He actually summoned the souls of a million soldiers directly!"

"No wonder it took ten years."

Jiang Ning exclaimed.

Although the million soldiers were dead, their morale remained high, and their military might was vast.

Led by a middle-aged man wearing a black dragon emperor's robe and riding a black dragon, his presence exuded immense authority, they marched into the Netherworld with a mighty force.

"Where is this place?"

"I led a million soldiers to resist the great power from the upper realm, sacrificing the million soldiers and countless living beings as offerings, and finally managed to strike down the great power from the upper realm."

"However, I and the million soldiers also perished. How could we suddenly appear in this place?"

The man seated on the black dragon had a dignified face, and his eyes were as terrifying as lightning. Wherever his gaze fell, it seemed as if everything would be annihilated.

His authority filled the eyes of all the soldiers with fervent admiration.

At this moment, Jiang Ning made his first appearance.

He knew that this majestic emperor would be difficult to subdue, requiring him to take action personally.

"This is the Netherworld, the place where the dead are reborn."

"I am the Lord of the Netherworld, the master of this realm. Since you have entered the Netherworld, you must obey the orders of the Lord of the Netherworld from now on."

Jiang Ning's indifferent voice echoed in the ears of the million soldiers.

"I am Qin Zheng, the Dragon Martial Emperor!"

"The million soldiers of the Immortal Qin Empire fear nothing, not even the great power of the upper realm. How could we submit to a mere Netherworld!"

"Even in death, I am still the overlord of the world!"

Qin Zheng came from the Immortal Qin Domain, a family clan of the same level as the Immortal Realm.

He was a man of great talent and ambition, with unparalleled strength, who unified the entire Immortal Qin Domain.

However, one day, a great power from the upper realm invaded the Immortal Qin Domain, intending to slaughter all living beings.

Qin Zheng led his million personal guards, fighting a bloody battle against the great power, resulting in mutual destruction.

Clearly, as a former great emperor, Qin Zheng was unwilling to submit to the Netherworld.

"Since you have entered the Netherworld, you have no choice."

Jiang Ning sneered.

No matter how difficult a person is to subdue, they will be tamed once they enter the Netherworld.

"Preposterous! How dare you speak so presumptuously to this Emperor!"

"All soldiers, heed my command! Follow me to seize the entire Netherworld!"

Qin Zheng raised his arm and shouted, issuing an attack order.

No matter where he went, he had to be king.

Seizing the Netherworld would allow him to be in control.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The million soldiers shouted in unison.

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, this person is only at the Heavenly Venerate Realm."

"Even if I am only a soul body, I have enough confidence to capture him."

At this moment, a burly general wearing dark red armor stepped forward and requested permission to fight.

It was Bai Tu, the God of War of the Immortal Qin Empire.

Before his death, both he and the Qin Emperor were half-step Transcendent experts.

"Hmm, granted," Qin Zheng stroked the sword at his waist and nodded with dignity.

Bai Tu rode a white giant tiger spirit and charged out.

"A mere Heavenly Venerate dares to ask His Majesty to submit? You are courting death!"

Bai Tu raised the long sword in his hand and slashed towards Jiang Ning.

Although he was currently a soul body, his strength in his previous life was too strong. Even ordinary Dao Ancestors today might not be able to match him.

He naturally did not take Jiang Ning, a Heavenly Venerate, seriously.

Seeing Bai Tu's long sword slashing towards him, Jiang Ning's lips curled into a smile, his face full of contempt.

This made Bai Tu, the God of Slaughter who struck fear into the hearts of enemies, even more enraged, and he attacked without mercy.

With a single slash, the void shattered.

The sword energy contained endless killing intent.

The intensity of the killing intent even made the Great Dao tremble in fear.

Seeing that Bai Tu had already reached him, Jiang Ning finally moved.

He casually stretched out a hand.

Clang!

He used two fingers to easily clamp Bai Tu's sword.

"What? How is this possible?"

Bai Tu was shocked and couldn't believe it.

"Hmph," Jiang Ning snorted coldly and exerted a little force.

Bai Tu was sent flying backward.

His soul body became faint, indicating that he had suffered a heavy blow.

"Hiss~"

This scene stunned the million soldiers.

Their invincible God of Slaughter general was defeated so easily?

They couldn't believe their eyes.

"Is he really just a Heavenly Venerate?" Qin Zheng looked at Jiang Ning in disbelief.

"Since you have entered the Netherworld, you should submit to the Lord of the Netherworld."

Jiang Ning's authoritative voice rang out.

"I have spent my life in battle, never kneeling to anyone, and it will remain so even after death."

"You are not qualified to make me submit."

"All troops, attack!"

Qin Zheng drew his sword, roared, and launched an attack order.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The million soldiers, gathering the power of the black dragon, surged towards Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning sneered dismissively.

If they were alive, Jiang Ning would still be somewhat wary.

But having died and become soul bodies, their strength was greatly reduced, and they naturally couldn't be his opponents.

Jiang Ning directly unleashed the power of the Imperial Dao.

And used the Imperial Zenith Heaven Scripture.

"Roar~"

Nine golden giant dragons flew out at the same time, shattering the void.

The terrifying pressure of the Imperial Dao was something that even Qin Zheng, as an eternal emperor, couldn't resist.

"You..."

"The Imperial Dao pressure on your body actually far exceeds mine. How is this possible?"

Qin Zheng was shocked and couldn't believe it.

The nine dragons roared in unison, like nine divine mountains, appearing out of thin air and suppressing the million soldiers.

Immediately, they cried out in pain.

Without any effort, Jiang Ning subdued the million soldiers of the former Qin Empire.

Jiang Ning's Netherworld mark was imprinted on all of them.

"Greetings, Lord of the Netherworld!"

After being branded by Jiang Ning, they all knelt down under Qin Zheng's leadership.

Once branded by the Netherworld, they couldn't betray Jiang Ning even if they wanted to.

Unless one day their strength surpassed Jiang Ning's.

This was obviously impossible.

No matter how monstrous an existence, they couldn't compare to Jiang Ning's cheat.

"Qin Zheng."

"You will temporarily be the Netherworld King, managing the Netherworld for me."

Qin Zheng, in his previous life, was able to manage a world like the Immortal Realm, so his governance skills were naturally very high.

Moreover, he also brought many old ministers.

They could better manage the Netherworld for him.

After all, Jiang Ning wouldn't put too much thought into the Netherworld.

After doing everything, Jiang Ning began to continue summoning souls.

However, this time he no longer summoned souls all day long.

During the day, he immersed himself in enlightenment, comprehending, fusing, and creating various divine powers.

At night, he summoned souls wandering in the myriad realms.

First, based on the Six Paths of Reincarnation, he created cultivation methods belonging to the ghosts of the Netherworld.

《Myriad Ghost Scripture》.

Encompassing all things, containing various ghost cultivation methods and offensive techniques.

Jiang Ning put a lot of effort into creating the 《Myriad Ghost Scripture》.

Fortunately, he had the help of the cheat and world acceleration.

At the same time, Jiang Ning also created a new path of cultivation, the Ghost Dao!

An existence of the same level as the Immortal Dao.

Of course, the Ghost Dao was newly created and far from as prosperous and complete as the Immortal Dao.

Jiang Ning had only created thirty-six Ghost Dao laws.

Compared to the three thousand Immortal Dao laws, it was still far behind.

With the blessing of the Ghost Dao, Jiang Ning's strength also increased by a notch.

Immortal Dao, Ghost Dao, Imperial Dao!

At this time, three forces coexisted peacefully in Jiang Ning's body.

Jiang Ning had gradually gotten rid of his complete reliance on the cheat.

Gradually moving towards his own path of creation.

Jiang Ning was very satisfied with this.

Although cheats were strong, they were not his own after all, and their strength had a limit.

Although he didn't know how his cheat came with him.

But Jiang Ning firmly believed that a very powerful existence had allowed him to have the cheat.

If he always relied on cheats, how could he surpass this very powerful existence?

And embarking on his own path of creation had infinite possibilities, surpassing the cheat, surpassing that unknown powerful existence.

Jiang Ning was no longer the ordinary person who had just transmigrated.

His own talent and comprehension were constantly being transformed, and now he had reached a terrifying state.

It was no exaggeration to say that even if he lost the cheat now, Jiang Ning could continue to become stronger.

To create his own things, he naturally had to dabble in many aspects of knowledge and gain as much cultivation experience as possible.

This was why, even though it could no longer improve his strength.

Jiang Ning still used the Instant Learn cheat to comprehend those cultivation methods, even if it was just an Immortal Emperor-level technique, Jiang Ning did not let it go.

...

A huge black vortex suddenly appeared in the sky above the Netherworld.

A girl wearing a black dress, barefoot, with a red ribbon tied on her head, looking only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Walked out step by step from the vortex, stepping on a black lotus flower.

It was a soul body that Jiang Ning had summoned from the myriad realms.

"This... where is this?"

"I... I seem to have experienced a great battle."

"I... I have a headache, I can't remember anything."

The beautiful and exquisite girl hugged her head.

"Since you have entered the Netherworld, you must obey the orders of my Lord. Follow me to the Reincarnation Hall."

At this moment, the Lord of the Reincarnation Hall came to receive this soul body.

The barefoot and exquisite girl just glared at the Lord of the Reincarnation Hall, and he was directly blasted away a long distance.

Her strength was supreme, unimaginable.

Jiang Ning, who was summoning souls, was shocked, "So terrifying."

"At that moment, I actually felt a suffocating sense of death."

Jiang Ning was a little incredulous.

As the creator of the Netherworld, everything that happened in the Netherworld could not be hidden from him.

"It seems that I have summoned the soul of a great power from the upper realm."

Only the soul of a great power from the upper realm could give Jiang Ning a sense of suffocation.

Whoosh!

Jiang Ning left the altar and entered the Netherworld.

"Who are you?"

"What is this place?"

"Who am I?"

Seeing Jiang Ning coming, the girl asked three questions in a row.

She had a strange sense of intimacy with this person, so she did not attack directly like the Lord of the Reincarnation Hall.

Looking at the beautiful girl in front of him, Jiang Ning was also surprised.

Because this spirit body was completely different from other souls.

Her soul had completely solidified and become a true life form.

Jiang Ning could also sense that her body contained an extremely large and terrifying power.

That power could easily destroy him.

However, it seemed to be sealed, and the power that could be exerted was limited.

This made Jiang Ning breathe a sigh of relief.

"It seems that she has lost her memory?"

Jiang Ning's mind began to turn.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "This is the Netherworld, and I am the Lord of the Netherworld."

"You are the Guardian of the Ghost Dao, Ghost Immortal Sheng."

"This is your mission."

"In the name of the Lord of the Netherworld, I summoned you from the Lord of the Myriad Realms to protect the Netherworld and the Ghost Dao."

Jiang Ning began to fool her.

This girl seemed young, but her strength was terrifyingly amazing.

Jiang Ning couldn't use force to suppress her, he could only try to deceive her and see if he could succeed.

"Although I have lost my memory."

"But I also know in the dark that my task is to protect."

"Maybe it is to protect the Ghost Dao."

The black-skirted girl nodded, agreeing with Jiang Ning's statement.

Of course, this was related to Jiang Ning having a strange sense of intimacy.

Otherwise, how could she be deceived by Jiang Ning so easily.

"From now on, I will be the Guardian of the Ghost Dao, Ghost Gentleman!"

"I will do my duty and protect the Ghost Dao of the Netherworld."

The girl said seriously and solemnly.

This shocked Jiang Ning, was she fooled by him?

This was too easy.

"The Ghost Dao is entrusted to you, Ghost Gentleman."

Jiang Ning also pretended to be very solemn.

He was overjoyed in his heart.

With such a strong person by his side, he would be more confident in dealing with the Dark Source.

"It seems that I should not summon souls for the time being."

"If I summon another terrible existence, I am afraid it will no longer be help, but a disaster."

Jiang Ning thought to himself.

Moreover, the number of souls summoned now was already very large, so he should digest it well first.

In the following days, Jiang Ning no longer used the Myriad Realms Soul Summoning.

He began to concentrate on studying various techniques and divine powers, as well as the Ghost Dao.

As for proving the Dao to become a Dao Ancestor, Jiang Ning was not in a hurry.

When the time came, it would happen naturally.

Jiang Ning never went to see that terrifying black-skirted girl again.

The more he contacted her, the easier it was to reveal flaws.

Now, Jiang Ning's strength was not enough to deal with her, so he could only avoid her.

If she knew that he had deceived her, the consequences of her going mad would be unimaginable.

In this way, the entire Great Xia Heavenly Court was in cultivation.

Time passed quickly for tens of thousands of years.

At this time, the entire Great Xia Heavenly Court had undergone earth-shaking changes.

Under Jiang Ning's world acceleration, all the ascenders had successfully broken through to the Heavenly Venerate Realm.

As the Heavenly Dao, Wang Youning could make it easier for cultivators to master the Great Dao.

As a result, many people attained enlightenment and became Dao Ancestors.

At this time, the Great Xia Heavenly Court could be described as brimming with talent.

Jiang Ning even established an army of one hundred thousand Heavenly Venerates.

The number of Dao Ancestors also exceeded one hundred.

The strength of the Great Xia Heavenly Court had reached its peak.

A peak unmatched in the entire history of the Immortal Realm.

Pan Linglong's belly was already very large.

But the child had not yet been born.

However, with Jiang Ning's various resources laying the foundation, the child was already a Heavenly Venerate in the womb.

Jiang Ning sighed, 'Does this kid have to be a Dao Ancestor at birth before he's willing to leave the womb?'

It was just a bit of a pity that after ten thousand years of cultivation, Wang Youning had not successfully conceived.

The development of the Underworld also gradually entered the right track.

A new world with the Underworld as its ruling center was thus established.
