#628 - Promoted to the fourth level of ghost god; Son of the World
As Jiang Ming clarified his goal, King Churning Wheel, the eight great ghost gods, and the heroic female ghost all chose to obey, intending to assist him in the combined practice of the origin crystal.
Soon.
The God Kingdom dissolved.
The one speaking was the Old Spine Ghost.
As the instigator who brought Jiang Ming here, he most wanted to see Jiang Ming defeated, reduced from a high-ranking hunter to a lower-class slave, which meant that he could humiliate and torment the other party severely in the future.
Just thinking about this made him unable to stop laughing.
He felt a burst of joy in his heart.
Afterward.
He raised his head, looking at Jiang Ming with a smug expression.
The malice in his eyes almost overflowed.
He couldn't wait for King Churning Wheel to reward this human to him, allowing him to do whatever he wanted.
King Churning Wheel: ?
Listening to his subordinate's boastful remarks, he was stunned for a moment, seemingly suspecting that he had misheard. However, he quickly reacted, realizing that this subordinate of his had a feud with his own father.
Thinking of this.
King Churning Wheel didn't hesitate for even a second, and burst into anger: "Impudent, who allowed you to be disrespectful to Young Master Jiang? What are you, daring to speak to Young Master Jiang like that?"
As soon as he finished speaking.
The pseudo-Emperor-level Yin energy coercion swept out from the master of the Tenth Hall of Yama. With a flash, his ghost hand was already pinching the Old Spine Ghost's neck, lifting him up and bringing him before Jiang Ming.
"Young Master Jiang, it is my lax management that allowed this old dog to bark wildly in front of you. Whether to kill or skin him, just give the order."
King Churning Wheel said sternly.
On one side was a subordinate who could be summoned and dismissed at will, and on the other was his newly recognized father. He knew very well which was more important.
If he could use the life of a Calamity-level ghost god to please his father and make him happy, it would be too cost-effective.
Hesitating for even a second would be wrong of this son.
However...
King Churning Wheel never thought about the psychological impact that his seemingly meritorious act would have on his three thousand ghost generals and the Old Spine Ghost.
They were all stunned.
Looking at this scene with a wrong kind of gaze.
They seemed to not understand why their Highness would capture their own people to please the enemy.
This was too illogical.
It was like being enslaved.
But...
How could a dignified Yama-level existence be enslaved by a group of country bumpkins? This was even more illogical.
For a time.
The three thousand ghost generals looked at each other, somewhat at a loss.
Even the Old Spine Ghost, as the person involved, was in a daze.
He looked at King Churning Wheel with a fierce expression, as if he wanted to offer him to the enemy as a merit. He felt his brain buzzing, completely unable to understand why his Highness's attitude had changed so quickly. He said unwillingly: "Your Highness, please see clearly, I am your most loyal old servant. I have shed blood for the Underworld Empire. I am a ghost with merit."
King Churning Wheel remained unmoved, his expression cold, "Offending Young Master Jiang and intending to kill people, this alone cannot be compensated for by any amount of merit."
"Also, since you think you are loyal, then prove it to me."
The Old Spine Ghost's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately stated: "Your Highness, I don't know who's slander you've listened to, but in terms of loyalty, I definitely have no problems."
"Good, then commit suicide, just consider it for my sake."
Old Spine Ghost: —
Hearing these words, he completely couldn't hold back anymore.
This was the same as "Are you obedient? If you are, then go die."
This didn't give him the power to choose at all.
His result was only one, and that was death.
The reason for his death was still because of an enemy.
This was too frustrating.
He clearly remembered that half an hour ago, King Churning Wheel was still posturing to capture Jiang Ming and obtain the inheritance of the Netherworld Ghost Emperor, and he couldn't see any trend of the two knowing each other at all. How could King Churning Wheel start to please the other party after half an hour?
Whose identity in the Underworld Empire could make a Yama King fawn over them?
The Old Spine Ghost thought a lot, but he couldn't guess Jiang Ming's true identity at all.
He could only struggle desperately.
Speaking in a panicked tone: "Your Highness, don't be deceived. Besides His Majesty, where else is there anyone with a noble identity in the Underworld Empire? Even if you want to fawn over someone, others should be fawning over you. Your Highness, you can't believe him."
After speaking, seeing that King Churning Wheel was still unmoved, the Old Spine Ghost despaired. He turned his head and roared at Jiang Ming, his words carrying a bit of collapse: "Putting a curse on Your Highness, deceiving Your Highness, the Underworld Emperor will not let you go. Your ending will definitely be worse than mine."
Aside.
Jiang Ming glanced at the other party, his expression calm, as if crushing an ant, waving his hand very casually: "Kill him, too noisy."
As soon as he finished speaking.
The Old Spine Ghost didn't even have time to say a second sentence before King Churning Wheel crushed his neck on the spot and threw him down.
"Young Master Jiang, please forgive me. Don't let individual bad apples affect your mood. Let's go, I'll take you to see the elite forces of the Churning Wheel King Palace."
When saying this, King Churning Wheel was carrying a bit of show off.
It was like an accomplished child returning to his hometown to show off his achievements to his father.
Jiang Ming nodded slightly.
A few smiles of a loving father were revealed in his eyes.
Subsequently.
King Churning Wheel led Jiang Ming all the way to the front of the three thousand ghost generals, saying with emotion: "This is Young Master Jiang,
He is a distinguished guest of my Churning Wheel King Palace. If I am not here, his orders are equivalent to my orders. Whoever is disrespectful to Young Master Jiang, the old ghost just now is the end."
Hearing this.
There was some commotion in the ghost crowd.
They were all surprised by Jiang Ming's identity.
As members of the Churning Wheel King Palace, they were the group of ghosts most likely to come into contact with the power center of the Underworld Empire. But they couldn't imagine that besides the Yama Kings ranked in the top nine and the supreme Underworld Emperor, whose identity could surpass His Highness King Churning Wheel.
This was too unusual.
Making them exclaim non-stop.
However—
With the Old Spine Ghost as a lesson, and coupled with the fact that they couldn't see anything unusual about their Highness, the three thousand ghost generals ultimately chose to obey the order. They lowered their heads, respectfully saying: "Greetings, Young Master Jiang."
Jiang Ming nodded.
Instructing: "Let's go."
Immediately.
King Churning Wheel shouted again: "Continue to set off according to the original route."
"Yes."
The three thousand ghost generals responded in unison.
On the way.
Inside the bone ship.
Jiang Ming resided in the most luxurious main palace, in front of him was a mountain of corpses.
This batch of ghost corpses were all ghost entities who had planned to ambush him outside the幽魂 Mountains earlier. Because the situation was urgent at the time, he collected them into the small world of his Divine Kingdom.
Now taking them out, the purpose is naturally to improve himself.
Strive to be promoted to Ghost Emperor as quickly as possible.
Without hesitation.
Jiang Ming activated the level 10 skill [Devour Essence].
Twisted ghost faces emerged, landing on the heads of the ghost corpses, opening their dark mouths, and constantly drawing on the life-long achievements of the ghost corpses.
[Absorbing Ghost God—]
[Strength +100000, Speed +100000, Spirit +5000000, Yin Power +50000000.]
1E
[Absorbing Nightmare-level Ghost God—]
[Strength +500000, Speed +500000, Spirit +10000000, Yin Power +100000000.]
[Absorbing Calamity-level Ghost God—]
[Strength +1000000, Speed +1000000, Spirit +30000000, Yin Power +300000000.]
[Extracting Ghost God Divinity, Earth Attribute Control +100.]
[Extracting Nightmare-level Ghost God Divinity, Water Attribute Control +100, Metal Attribute Control +100.]
[Extracting Calamity-level Ghost God Divinity, Metal Attribute Control +100, Fire Attribute Control +100, Geng Metal Control +100.]
[.]
[Congratulations player, you have absorbed a total of 40 million points of Strength attribute, 40 million points of Speed attribute, 200 million points of Spirit attribute, and 8 billion points of Yin Power, all of which have been converted into player data.]
[Ding, detected player data update, after Pure Land detection, the player's current three-dimensional values have reached the standard.]
[Congratulations player, you have been promoted.]
[Current Rank: Pseudo-Emperor Level.]
Seeing the panel prompt, the smile in Jiang Ming's eyes was very obvious.
Simply absorbing more than thirty Ghost God-level participants' ghost entities has pushed his rank to a new level again. This promotion speed is too fast.
So fast that it is completely unreasonable.
But under the effect of the level 10 skill [Devour Essence], he still advanced strongly and became a Pseudo-Emperor level existence in one fell swoop, that is, a fourth-order Ghost God.
One step further, and that is the real Ghost Emperor.
Of course.
Behind the continuous promotion is another hidden danger.
Jiang Ming glanced at the [Personal] attribute panel [Player: 万法仙君].
[Level: 135.]
[Strength: 56000000——5600000000 (Continuous Increase)]
[Speed: 56000000-
-5600000000 (Continuous Increase)]
[Spirit: 300000000
3000000000 (Continuous Increase)]
[Yin Power: 13000000000.]
[Current Rank: Pseudo-Emperor Level.]
[Current Status: God-Hated and Ghost-Loathed.]
[God-Hated and Ghost-Loathed: You are rejected by this world, entangled with the Black Museum's fortune, and bear the fate of a Lone Star. You will have no father, no mother, no wife, no children, no friends. Your life will be spent in hatred and suppression, and your existence will be hated by all life.]
This is the special state that appeared after he absorbed more than thirty ghost entities.
Obviously.
This is the drawback of the level 10 skill [Devour Essence].
Behind the rapid promotion is the abandonment of a world.
Not only will he bear the bad luck of certain death for the rest of his life, but he will also have the fate of a Lone Star, and will be hated for life.
Even the [Golden Fortune] given to him by the Pure Land World when he opened up the special-grade Divine Kingdom cannot offset the effect of God-Hated and Ghost-Loathed.
It is conceivable how terrifying this special state is.
Once burdened with it, a miserable fate is destined for life.
Even if he is as strong as the幽魂 Ghost Emperor, in the mouths of the world, he is a dark, eccentric, and unpopular figure.
Moreover.
According to King 轉輪, the冥 Empire's ten-thousand-year resurrection plan also does not include the 幽魂 Ghost Emperor. This legendary Ghost Emperor is also the only one among the Ten Great Ghost Emperors who is not allowed to be resurrected.
God-Hated and Ghost-Loathed, worthy of the name.
Jiang Ming啧啧 marvelled.
There was no trace of worry in his eyes.
On the contrary.
At this time, he looked like he had made a big profit.
No other reason.
The God-Hated and Ghost-Loathed state that the 幽魂 Ghost Emperor could not break can be easily reversed for Jiang Ming, who has the level 5 cheat [This Curse is Great].
The level 5 [This Curse is Great] has ten passive curse reversal spots. He currently only has four curses: "Fleshly Body Miasma", "Sealed", "Annihilation", and "Destroy All Laws", plus one more, which is only five, which only accounts for half of the spots.
Jiang Ming moved his gaze and looked at the cheat display on the other side.
[The host is in the "God-Hated and Ghost-Loathed" state.]
[State Reversal.]
[God-Hated and Ghost-Loathed——Child of the World.]
[Child of the World: You are the illegitimate child loved by this world. You are enjoying the blessing of the world itself all the time. Whatever you want, this world will respond to you, free of charge.]
Jiang Ming smiled.
Compared to the [Golden Fortune] state given to him by the Pure Land World, this "Child of the World" state is simply more fortunate than the Child of Fortune. It is like relying on the Pure Land World, forcibly establishing a connection with it, and making him the "God's illegitimate son."
In this way, there is no need to worry about the severe backlash effect of the level 10 skill [Devour Essence].
He can also continue to quickly improve his rank through absorption.
With a cheat, you can do whatever you want.
Jiang Ming said with such emotion.
In a great mood.
Before long.
Jiang Ming cleaned up the scene and burned the corpses with a fire.
After that.
He activated the continuously increasing level 13 skill [Ghost Domain], and with a flash, he appeared in the adjacent side hall.
Inside the side hall.
The Scarlet Queen was sitting by the window, supporting her chin with her hands, looking up for a long time, as if thinking about someone.
Suddenly.
The Scarlet Queen, who noticed someone invading, turned her head sharply and saw Jiang Ming, who was radiant.
She was stunned for a moment, and then showed a smile, and came to Jiang Ming very enthusiastically.
"Why are you here?"
"Come and see you, and also, you were in danger this time because of me. I don't seem to have compensated you yet."
Jiang Ming chuckled.
His palm had already reached into the Divine Kingdom, wanting to help the Scarlet Queen improve her rank as soon as possible.
The Scarlet Queen reached out to stop him.
She took Jiang Ming's hand and placed it on her heart, her pretty face slightly flushed.
"If you want to compensate me, I hope it is this kind of compensation."
After speaking.
In Jiang Ming's increasingly strange gaze, the Scarlet Queen's red dress slipped off her shoulders.
Revealing a pair of fragrant shoulders as white as corpses that had been dead for seven days and seven nights.
Without a doubt.
This is a perfect work of art.
"City Lord, hold me—."
The Scarlet Queen leaned over, her voice soft and shy.
It was clearly a cold ghost body, but it made Jiang Ming feel unparalleled heat.
He suddenly picked up the Scarlet Queen, and the window closed silently at this moment.
