The scenery was complete. The burdens of the past, now that he thought about them, weren't even worth a sneer.

Jin Buyi and Ying Shu were still opponents. But when the time came to return, who would be strong and who would be weak, who would be the bait and who would be the angler, remained to be seen.

He quickly retracted his domain, allowing his body to return to the rules of reality.

The domain of an Intent Realm cultivator could indeed resist the rules of the Heavenly Dao, distorting or even ignoring the original laws.

But it came at a price, withstanding pressure.

When tearing and confronting the rules of heaven and earth, one naturally had to bear the pressure and backlash from heaven and earth.

The larger the domain was, the stronger this pressure and backlash would be.

If the domain was large enough to directly encompass the entire world, it would be equivalent to a complete war with the world, a struggle for the authority of the Heavenly Dao within the world.

If one didn't want to directly fall out with the Heavenly Dao, it was best not to make any overly drastic attempts.

If that weren't the case, and they could permanently keep their domains open, forming a self-contained entity, then the lifespan crisis of the Wasteland Fight Realm should have ended at the Intent Realm.

This also led Ye Chuxiao to wonder if the Wuding Realm (Limitless Realm) was such a realm of expanding one's domain and pulling against the rules of the Heavenly Dao.

But he felt it was too simple.

As for the explanation of the Wuding Realm left by Tang Sudong, which Yan Po had relayed, Ye Chuxiao had no clue for the time being.

Perhaps, after returning to Daheng and winning the battle for the Heart Pill, the mysterious door of the Wuding Realm would unfold before him.

Three Intent Realm cultivators had fallen one after another. Huang Zhentu even provided Ye Chuxiao with a used Dao rhythm, allowing Ye Chuxiao to successfully inherit his array and painting accumulations. It could be said that it was an extremely qualified gift package.

"What a waste, their souls scattered quickly when they died. Duanmu Lin didn't have time to collect their complete souls into the Aurora Underworld, otherwise, they could have continued to be used." Ye Chuxiao didn't feel sorry for too long.

With the breakthrough in his cultivation to the Intent Realm, his pace with Duanmu Lin would accelerate greatly.

The name of the Aurora Underworld and the Living King of Hell would soon spread throughout the world, becoming the final 'shelter' for all old cultivators whose lifespans were about to end.

Duanmu Lin extracted the soul of the last Wisdom Realm cultivator and sent it into the Underworld. She still walked up to Ye Chuxiao, as pure as ever, untouched by the slightest dust.

"Is it all cleaned up?"

"How do you feel now?" Ye Chuxiao asked.

Duanmu Lin said, "It's still a bit unstable. Sometimes I'm very strong, but sometimes I'm relatively weaker. My power has been combined with the Aurora Underworld. The prosperity of the Underworld is my prosperity. On the contrary, my own cultivation seems unimportant. Although the progress is not bad, it's far from the power I borrow from the Aurora Underworld."

Ye Chuxiao nodded. This was expected.

The items inside the container would affect the value of the container itself.

Although this analogy wasn't accurate enough, it was barely applicable.

As a ghost cultivator, Duanmu Lin's actual realm was actually between the Mystic Realm and the Transformation Realm.

This was still the result of Ye Chuxiao spending a lot of resources to feed her, and the Aurora Underworld pouring in limitless power.

After all, Duanmu Lin had been cultivating for a short time, and her own heartfelt insights were not many.

As a semi-fictional life, she also had some inherent shortcomings.

It was only because the Aurora Underworld made up for it that they were all covered up, only affecting the extent of her true cultivation aptitude.

Within the Aurora Underworld she formed with her ghost body and the Ice Lotus, a large number of Intent Realm and Wisdom Realm souls were imprisoned. Their cultivation would also feed back and nourish Duanmu Lin, which made Duanmu Lin's true state constantly fluctuating and unstable.

"We still need to focus on our own cultivation. Even if your personal cultivation is a drop in the bucket compared to the feedback from the Aurora Underworld, don't forget to continue accumulating."

"The Aurora Underworld is your upper limit, and your own independent cultivation guarantees the lower limit," Ye Chuxiao instructed.

Duanmu Lin smiled brightly, surpassing countless flowers.

"Okay, I remember!"

"You've said it many times, so there's no need to nag anymore."

Ye Chuxiao waved his hand: "Continue! I'll find you some more old Intent Realm cultivators to replenish, so that your state can stabilize."

"When there are enough Intent Realm cultivators as support, becoming the pillars that hold up the Aurora Underworld, it will be time for the Aurora Underworld to be completely open to the public."

"Only then will it be completely stable."

"The Intent Realm is strong, but it's also a minority. From now on, the infinite trillions of creatures in the Wasteland Fight Realm are the vast majority. If you can include the souls of ordinary people in the Aurora Underworld and encompass them, then you will swallow this world sooner or later, not only walking on the earth as the King of Hell, but also a powerful King of Hell with limitless glory, shining upon the heavens."

In just a few words, Ye Chuxiao's ambition was exposed.

He would never stop at just collecting some Intent Realm cultivators to be code farmers, cultivating for him and moving bricks for him.

A small number of elites only stood out from the group, and they could never replace the real group.

In the face of a huge group, they were even as fragile and insignificant as ants.

Ye Chuxiao wanted to see the Wuding Realm, and even the realms higher than the Wuding Realm.

Duanmu Lin was a great opportunity.

Her special nature and the special nature of the Wasteland Fight Realm gave her the possibility of a quick shortcut.

About ten days after the siege of Ye Chuxiao and the others, Pei Xiudou, the Extreme Column Spear God, Du Xiao, the White-Haired Mad Demon, the Ancient and Modern Scorching Sun, and a total of twelve old Intent Realm cultivators successively spread the news of their deaths.

The names of King of Hell Duanmu and Heavenly Blade Xiao Ye also completely shook the entire Wasteland Fight Realm, becoming objects of fear for everyone.

There were many speculations about them.

The most clamorous was that the King of Hell and the Heavenly Blade had jointly practiced an evil technique that could forcibly absorb cultivation. That was why they were frantically hunting down those old Intent Realm cultivators, and were so powerful that even if multiple Intent Realm cultivators surrounded and intercepted them, they couldn't take advantage of it at all, but would be counter-killed instead.

For a time, people were panic-stricken.

Those small cultivators whose cultivation was weak and not worth mentioning didn't notice that they weren't the target at all, and were extremely afraid, fearing that they would suffer the poisonous hands of the King of Hell and the Heavenly Blade.

They even became chives because of this, and were ruthlessly harvested by unscrupulous merchants who took the opportunity to make money.

Many Intent Realm cultivators who might actually become targets also had the intention of forming a group to keep warm.

Those Intent Realm cultivators who had divine artifacts as their trump cards no longer watched from the sidelines, but carried divine artifacts and actively searched for the whereabouts of Ye Chuxiao and the others, intending to use the power of the divine artifacts to kill them.

As for those large countries with vast territories and strong national power, like Qiang Chu, they also began to intentionally investigate the movements of Ye Chuxiao and the others, mobilizing a large number of people, preparing to surround, intercept, and kill them, even if they had to pile them to death with corpses.

At this time, the two of them had become enemies of the world.

If this continued to develop, even if Ye Chuxiao became stronger after breaking through to the Intent Realm, it would be difficult to resist the pressure.

After all, although he had the confidence and capital to fight against many opponents, if there were too many opponents, he would be exhausted even if he fought to the death.

Putting aside other things, those enemies who besieged him only needed to fight him in a war of attrition of domains in a round-robin manner.

They could use the power of the Heavenly Dao's backlash to drag down Ye Chuxiao's domain.

At this stage, it was impossible to continue the primitive accumulation of killing.

Ye Chuxiao and Duanmu Lin began to hide and no longer move.

After another two or three months, although they no longer acted.

However, the legends about them in the martial world became more and more numerous.

And they were all very detailed.

Some blood debts that they didn't create were also put on their heads for no reason.

The King of Hell and the Heavenly Blade had become like a stinky ditch.

Anyone could dump their garbage into it.

This trend became more and more intense. Obviously, it wasn't just spontaneous from the people, but also guided by someone with a purpose, trying to provoke the two out by insulting them in this way.

The change started when someone saw the Old Sword God Zhou Jiusheng again.

At first, those who knew this Old Sword God thought they had seen it wrong.

But after the Old Sword God's old friends talked to him, they found that there were no flaws.

After that, those Intent Realm cultivators who were rumored to have had their cultivation absorbed and had vanished into thin air reappeared one after another.

They summoned their old subordinates, mobilized materials from all sides, and began to build a city on a dark and oppressive black earth and black mountain.

They wanted to build a King of Hell City in this poor and desolate land as the residence of King of Hell Duanmu Lin when she walked in the world.

Although these former Intent Realm cultivators all had a heart to replace the King of Hell.

But before they had this strength, they all knew how to restrain themselves, and instead competed with each other, focusing on being loyal to the King of Hell.

Ye Chuxiao let Duanmu Lin release them, intending to reverse the perception and relieve the pressure.

But these newly promoted ghost cultivators wanted to build a city and wonders for Duanmu Lin, compile myths, and create a religion.

They were completely like a group of fanatical believers.

Naturally, in this process, the relatives and friends of these ghosts who had defected were also accepted and became the original main body for building cities and wonders and creating religions.

Then, through the mouths of these people, the truth was gradually revealed.

It turned out that these 'dead' old cultivators had all turned into ghost cultivators with the help of the King of Hell.

Although it could be said that they were starting from scratch, and that their past cultivation, except for their memories and strong willpower, had not been retained much, the growth rate of these powerhouses who had once swept an era was very amazing on the path of ghost cultivation.

Zhou Jiusheng, who was the first to become a ghost cultivator, had even reached the sixth realm of ghost cultivation, and seemed to be not far from regaining his peak power.

After the truth spread, the entire Wasteland Fight Realm was completely sensational.

The cultivators who had been gearing up and wanting to kill the King of Hell and the Heavenly Blade were now restless and had more thoughts.

Naturally, it was difficult for them to work together to find trouble for Ye Chuxiao and the others.

Any cultivator with some understanding of cultivation wouldn't not know what a ghost cultivator was.

Although there was no precedent for ghost cultivation in the Wasteland Fight Realm in the past, it didn't mean that they didn't know the concept of ghost cultivation.

No matter how troublesome the flaws of the Wasteland Fight Realm were, it wasn't a world completely separated from the outside world.

If they could turn into ghost cultivators, it would undoubtedly be an excellent way out for those cultivators whose lifespans were about to end and who were only left with a dead end.

For Zhou Jiusheng and other old Intent Realm cultivators who had 'died', after learning the 'truth', people changed their mentality from the original sympathy and panic to jealousy and anticipation.

The reputation of Duanmu Lin and Ye Chuxiao naturally took a 180-degree turn.

How notorious they were before, how famous they were now.

The emperors of various countries also showed their favor to them, issuing invitations, wanting to test the waters.

In the King of Hell City that was being built, Zhou Jiusheng stood on the dark city wall with his hands behind his back.

The wide city wall, stacked with pure Yin obsidian, was actually the third time it had been torn down and rebuilt.

The first two times, it had been abandoned because the scale was too small and the materials were too poor.

"Old Zhou! How many days' worth do you have left?" A voice rang out, interrupting Zhou Jiusheng's contemplation at this time.

"I have half a month left, what's wrong? Do you need me to spare you a little?" Zhou Jiusheng turned around and asked Gu Jin, who was rubbing his hands and flying over.

Gu Jin said, "Then... if it's convenient, transfer three days' worth to me first. I have some things to do these days that I need to focus on. I'm not relieved to leave it to those little brats."

Zhou Jiusheng took out three special currencies from his bosom, as small as coins but shining with aurora, and handed them to Gu Jin.

Gu Jin carefully took them, and then directly stuck one of them on his forehead, and then absorbed it into his body.

"You said, this thing is clearly made of aurora from the far north, why can't the people we sent to collect aurora imitate it?" Gu Jin said to Zhou Jiusheng in a low voice.

Zhou Jiusheng looked puzzled, expressing the attitude of what are you talking about? You actually did such a thing.

"Okay! Stop pretending!"

"I've found out everything, you were the first to start working on this."

"Many natural treasures that can break into the aurora land were snatched by you, old man," Gu Jin said unhappily.

The two were friends before they were alive.

After reuniting in the Aurora Underworld, they naturally colluded together.

At least before they had the strength and possibility to replace the King of Hell, they would be excellent allies.

"It should be that the King of Hell has a special refining and transformation method."

"Or... the King of Hell can give birth to aurora, and the King of Hell's aurora is different from the aurora in the far north," Zhou Jiusheng said in a low voice.

"If that's the case, even if our strength really recovers to that point... we can't act rashly!" Gu Jin said.

Zhou Jiusheng said sternly, "Shut up! Don't talk nonsense anymore. If you talk nonsense again, I'll report to the King of Hell and tell her about your unruly heart."

Gu Jin didn't panic at all, just sneered.

"Just pretend!"

"You do the most, but you don't dare to say it," Gu Jin muttered.

They obviously didn't know that their conversation had been completely monitored by Ye Chuxiao and the others.

Among the talents shared by Ye Chuxiao and Duanmu Lin, the ability to control a group of ghosts was one of them.

These ghost cultivators who were subdued by Duanmu Lin into the Aurora Underworld were actually completely under her control.

Their current 'freedom' was the result of Ye Chuxiao deliberately instructing Duanmu Lin to let them go.

Completely without freedom and thinking they had freedom were two completely different management states.

And the subsequent consequences would be very different.
