#938 - Ghost Emperor Yu Tongtian
The real Underworld was still very far away, and this place was merely a space that resembled a secret realm.
He guessed that this space should be a hub left behind in the human realm by the Underworld.
When the aura of death from both the human realm and the Underworld converged here, they would enter the Underworld through this hub.
However, now this hub had been severed, causing the aura of death to be unable to circulate smoothly, which in turn triggered all sorts of bizarre phenomena.
Li Chengfeng stepped into this world filled with ghostly energy, each step seeming to plunge into the abyss of another dimension.
The ghostly energy here was not only so dense that it was almost solidified, but it also carried an unspeakable evil and resentment, making people feel a chill in their hearts.
Looking around, he saw ghost clans and ghost kings fighting on their own, some killing each other, and some devouring their own kind in order to obtain more powerful strength.
In this chaos and slaughter, Li Chengfeng keenly captured more than a dozen unusually terrifying auras, like giant beasts hidden in the dark, ready to devour people at any time.
Suddenly, a burst of wild laughter broke the silence, the voice full of triumph and ferocity: "There's the scent of a living person!
Someone actually dares to come here, truly courting death! Let's go take a look! Hahaha! Zhang Xiu, everything here is mine, and this living person must be left to me for half!"
Before the words fell, another angry voice sounded: "Wu Xizhao, don't even think about it!"
Immediately afterward, more than a dozen terrifying auras erupted, like a volcanic eruption, surging and澎湃.
Li Chengfeng could feel that these auras contained endless resentment and killing intent, as if they wanted to devour the entire world.
Looking up, he saw dark clouds in the sky, lightning and thunder, as if the end of the world had arrived.
And under this dark cloud, the Ten Great Ghost Emperors broke through the air, their figures looming in the ghostly energy, like messengers from hell.
These Ghost Emperors were all existences at the Transformation God stage, possessing monstrous strength and endless desire for slaughter.
Li Chengfeng's heart trembled, understanding how powerful the enemies he was facing this time were.
He did not retreat, but instead strengthened his determination.
He stared at these Ghost Emperors, his eyes flashing with a firm light.
Although these Ten Great Ghost Emperors were all real Ghost Emperors, they were in this hub between the human realm and the Underworld.
They might really be invincible existences.
Li Chengfeng also noticed a detail: although these Ghost Emperors were powerful, their auras seemed to be suppressed to a certain extent.
This made him feel a little relieved, perhaps he still had a chance.
Countless ghosts also broke through the air, some ferocious, some cunning, some arrogant, but without exception, they all stared at Li Chengfeng, the only living person.
Li Chengfeng looked at this scene, and his heart suddenly understood: the reason why these ghosts gathered here was not only because the rules here were weak, but also because they were looking forward to the day when they could open up the passage, go there to devour living beings and enhance their strength.
Facing the surging ghost army and the threat of the Ten Great Ghost Emperors.
Li Chengfeng's purpose in venturing deep into the ghost territory this time was to thoroughly investigate whether the lurking Shadow Clan had cast the Shadow Grand Demon Curse.
Regarding the Shadow Clan's Chief Commander's casual explanation—merely turning people into coordinates—his heart was full of doubts and disbelief.
Behind this must be hidden a deeper, more terrifying power of curse.
This power of curse, usually perhaps lurking like a sleeping beast, but once awakened suddenly in battle, its power would be enough to destroy the heavens and the earth, harming others and harming oneself.
This worry, like a boulder, pressed on Li Chengfeng's heart, making him unable to let go.
At this moment, Li Chengfeng was in the ghost territory, surrounded by densely packed, tens of millions of ghost troops, the ghostly energy滔天, as if to devour him.
And among these ghosts, the Ten Great Ghost Emperors were even more powerful, like ten fierce gods, aggressively approaching him.
Li Chengfeng did not choose to hide his aura, but instead deliberately burst out his powerful blood energy.
This blood energy was like a raging flame, lighting up a bright lamp in the dark night sky, attracting those greedy ghosts to come.
Soon, the Ten Great Ghost Emperors surrounded Li Chengfeng.
Each of them had a ferocious look on their faces, their eyes flashing with a gloomy light.
Among them, the Black-Robed Ghost Emperor, the strongest, had an even more gloomy gaze, as if he could see through the fear in people's hearts.
Now, he was able to transform into a physical body, and that gloomy face was even more chilling.
Looking at Li Chengfeng, he said in a low and cold voice: "Human, you have great courage, daring to break into our territory.
This seal has prevented us from enjoying delicacies. If you can open it, I can consider sparing your life.
Since you can come in, you must also have the ability to open it, right?"
Faced with the Black-Robed Ghost Emperor's threat and temptation, Li Chengfeng only sneered.
His eyes were like torches, as if he could penetrate all hypocrisy and lies.
He slowly said: "Of course, opening this seal is as easy as flipping my hand for me.
It's not impossible to let you pass, but before that, you must know a truth—you are all cursed."
Li Chengfeng's words carried an unquestionable firmness and majesty.
His gaze swept over the Ten Great Ghost Emperors one by one, and what he felt was the terrifying power of curse from the Shadow Clan.
This power, like an invisible shackle, tightly bound these ghost kings, plunging them into endless darkness and pain.
"What!" The leading Ghost Emperor, Yu Tongtian, upon hearing this, suddenly roared, his voice full of shock and anger.
"How could you know this secret? This is a secret of our ghost clan for tens of thousands of years, and no outsider has ever known it!"
Li Chengfeng looked at the Ghost Emperor's angry face, and his heart became even more convinced of his guess.
He said calmly: "The reason why I know is because as soon as I entered here, I felt the unusualness of this place.
This is not a true place of Heavenly Dao, but a cursed place.
There is no path to reincarnation here, nor is it a transit station for reincarnation.
After the collapse of reincarnation, the transit station will also completely disappear with the riots in the Underworld.
And here, it has become a terrifying place where ghosts gather."
The Ghost Emperor listened to Li Chengfeng's words, and the anger on his face gradually turned into solemnity. He knew very well that every word this human said hit the vital point of their ghost clan.
Li Chengfeng continued: "The reason why these ghosts are so cruel is because here, they are either devoured or they grow.
They have no choice but to constantly struggle in this cruel environment.
And this situation has lasted for hundreds of thousands of years. That is to say, hundreds of thousands of years ago, this place suffered a terrible curse."
The Ghost Emperor Yu Tongtian heard the words, and his body shook slightly.
He did not expect that this human would know so much about the history here.
Li Chengfeng looked at the Ghost Emperor's reaction, and his heart became even more confident.
He continued: "And this curse is not impossible to remove.
It's just that someone used secret methods to cover it up, but could not completely eliminate it.
This makes this place a small Underworld-like existence, full of darkness and despair."
The Ghost Emperor Yu Tongtian listened to Li Chengfeng's words, a trace of struggle and confusion flashed in his eyes.
What this human said was the truth.
And their ghost clan had indeed struggled painfully under the shroud of this curse for tens of thousands of years.
