Chapter 23 Single-handedly sweeping away the underworld leader
but.
It's strange—
In this first realm of wandering souls in the underworld, most of the creatures that are on the ground have become bloodthirsty yin beings.
What Fang Han couldn't understand was that things weren't like that in the sky!
These ravens are just like ordinary birds on Earth!
He harbored not a trace of resentment!
Clearly, this alone is enough to prove it—
This underworld, transformed by the will of the netherworld, is not without its flaws.
At least, that's how it is in this beginner's underworld of the first realm!
of course……
This might be related to the fact that the Soul Suppression Trial is not over yet!
After all, the area he was in was still the novice underworld.
Even though the territory of the underworld has expanded several times over by killing the leader, it is still protected by the transformed order of the will of the underworld!
Such protection would naturally prevent the appearance of those flying vengeful spirits who possess air superiority!
If that's the case, these new contract envoys really won't have a chance to live!
......
To the south... in a certain underworld region.
A team of over thirty people is "passionately" hunting down evil spirits!
After a few days of getting to know each other, the members became more and more adept at cooperating.
They are incredibly efficient at hunting down evil spirits!
The entire barren hillside was littered with the remains of the evil spirits that had been killed!
now……
Just as they had joined forces to kill an elite vengeful spirit and were preparing to continue their advance.
In the sky, two figures, one large and one small, flew by with shimmering, ethereal wings!
The ethereal wings shimmered with a pale and eerie light as true essence flowed through them!
Especially the smaller one, because its soul was dressed in white with purple patterns, and possessed a desolate and aloof beauty...
Under this luster, even the ethereal wings reflected an eerie light!
Like a beautiful, ghostly figure drifting out from the depths of the underworld!
It looks very eye-catching!
As for the larger figure, one could see a faint blue light shimmering on its ethereal wings!
In just a moment.
Suddenly, someone pointed at the sky and shouted!
Immediately, all the contract envoys in the group looked up at the same time!
"Holy crap...that thing in the sky...is it human?"
"And there's one smaller one, a Shadow?"
"It's too far away to see the smaller one clearly. But the larger one is definitely human! My God! Humans with wings! They flew towards the southernmost point?"
"Did you get a good look at him? Could it be Fang Shen? At this time, he should be the only one in our Zhenhun Village heading towards the southernmost point!"
"It must be Fang Shen... No wonder he's so strong, daring to challenge the leader of the Yin Domain alone! Turns out he even has the art of flying ghosts!"
"And what exactly is that little thing next to him, a contracted spirit? A vengeful spirit of a Netherworld butterfly? Or some kind of vengeful ghost princess from a high-level Netherworld?"
"It doesn't quite resemble You Ji. When I first summoned spirits, I saw the appearance of the Resentful You Ji in the fifth realm's Ghost General level options. Their soul forms and ethereal wings didn't look like this; they weren't as tragically beautiful..."
"What the hell is that?! I'm fucking dying of curiosity right now, what exactly is Fang Shen's contracted Yin artifact?!"
"Just as curious! Logically speaking, according to the information released by the Netherworld Will, the two strongest contracted Yin creatures our Soul-Suppressing Village obtained were only at the third realm of vengeful ghosts. Moreover, the identities of those two big shots are no longer a secret; they are definitely not Fang Shen!"
"Yes...that's the strangest place."
"There's no point in guessing. Why don't we head south and see what happens? Maybe if we're lucky, we'll witness the epic battle between Fang Shen and the leader... If we can be of any help, wouldn't we be set for life?"
"Hey, that's a good suggestion!"
"Captain, what do you think? Should we...?"
moment.
All eyes were on the team captain!
However, it's quite a coincidence—
In fact, the founders of this team were the same people who had met Fang Han a few times before.
Zhao Hu, the cold-skinned girl known as "Young Miss," and her three original companions remain!
As time went on, the team grew larger and larger under Zhao Hu's organization.
Now, it has grown to more than thirty people!
now.
When a team member made this suggestion, the original core members of the team exchanged glances.
"Young Miss, should we...?"
Zhao Hu immediately spoke.
"Hmm...we can go take a look. After all, we've met him once before."
"If I can be of any help, that would be great."
"However, we need to be careful on the way... After all, there are too many evil spirits now, and there are also elite vengeful spirits. We can only clear them out as we go, so we probably won't be able to go very fast."
The young lady immediately analyzed the situation calmly.
......
After more than an hour of flight.
Fang Han and Nie Xiaoqian finally spotted the Tiger-shaped Vengeful Spirit in the gray fog-shrouded jungle below!
It's similar to a tiger on Earth, but... its size, formed from resentment, is at least twice the size of an ordinary tiger!
This shows that after these species became Yin creatures, their abilities in all aspects were greatly enhanced!
now.
Fang Han locked onto the activity trajectory of these tiger-shaped vengeful spirits, flapped his Netherworld Wings, and flew towards the depths of the jungle!
All around, the echoing roars of tigers grew increasingly intense!
The tremor caused the leaves on the withered wood demon to fall in a rustling sound!
The moment his gaze locked onto a gigantic, seven- or eight-meter-long tiger-shaped vengeful spirit—
Fang Han immediately recalled the other party's information!
【Three-Striped Nether Tiger - Sixth-Tier Vengeful Spirit】
Group of resentful spirits: Elite level.
Description: Possesses extremely powerful physical attacks and explosive burst damage. Its sharp claws, formed from vengeful spirit, can easily tear apart and shred the soul and flesh of its opponents. Furthermore, as an elite vengeful spirit within the Three-Striped Nether Tiger clan, its roar can summon other nearby Three-Striped Nether Tigers to its aid…
Hint: This three-striped Nether Tiger is the most loyal guardian spirit of the Soul-Burning Blazing Tiger. Wherever it appears, the Soul-Burning Blazing Tiger is sure to be nearby!
"Just like what was said in the group chat."
"Where the elite tiger-shaped vengeful spirit appears, there must be a leader. No wonder that team was wiped out without any chance to fight back."
As Fang Han was thinking this, he prepared to personally take action and kill the group of tiger-shaped vengeful spirits.
But Nie Xiaoqian, who was beside him, took the lead and fluttered her wings to float in front of him!
Moreover, she turned her head slightly to him, showing off the purplish-red sleeves of her clothes!
That was as if to say, "Leave it to me!"
"Xiaoqian...is she trying to show off?"
Fang Han felt a strange sensation when he saw Nie Xiaoqian volunteering.
(This contracted yin entity of mine is indeed a bit abnormal...)
(The level of intelligence this person has developed is just too high!)
......
at the same time.
Before Fang Han could even agree, Nie Xiaoqian turned around abruptly!
They put away those beautiful, ghostly wings!
It drifted towards the tiger pack below!
(Nie Xiaoqian almost perfectly replicated Fang Han's insidious fighting techniques.)
(Those ghostly wings were only used for traveling and flying, to show off their elegance.)
However, when she actually entered battle mode, she immediately retracted the simulated ghost wings to conserve her power!
Just like when we fought that mutated Nether Willow before—
After her delicate soul drifted into the jungle, she immediately used her agile ability to fly to move mysteriously among the dense skeletons and wood demons!
Simultaneously.
A chilling, soul-capturing aftershock, barely perceptible to the naked eye, was silently entwined around the withered bone spirits around her!
And so it went, until all the aftereffects of the soul-capturing were arranged according to her wishes.
Her movements slowed down, and she hovered in the very center of the trap!
at the same time……
The group of three-striped ghost tigers seemed to be completely enraged by the tiny female ghost spirit that had suddenly invaded their territory!
The furious roars of tigers rang out one after another!
In particular, the enormous elite three-striped Nether Tiger charged wildly, recklessly attacking Nie Xiaoqian!
It wished it could swallow this female ghost that dared to challenge its majesty whole and annihilate her soul!
but.
These tiger-shaped vengeful spirits were unaware—
He was stepping into a death trap built of soul-stealing whispers!
because.
Nie Xiaoqian moved among the thick, withered wood demons one after another, using the aftershocks of her soul-capturing power to weave an invisible killing field!
When the aftershocks of the soul-capturing effect are gentle and ethereal, it's nothing special...
Under the exquisite control of the Yin energy within Nie Xiaoqian's body, it can shrink and evade, leaving these charging tiger-shaped vengeful spirits completely unaware!
But once these aftershocks instantly transform from a gentle, ethereal state into an "invisible blade" infused with yin energy—
Their sharpness is comparable to that of divine weapons!
Especially since these three-striped Nether Tigers were charging at such a fast speed!
At high speeds, anything that comes into contact with these sharp, soul-capturing aftershocks will be instantly cut into pieces!
now.
Nie Xiaoqian hovered in the very center of the soul-capturing trap she had meticulously set up!
A poignant, dazzling light shimmered around her!
Like a shadowy figure attracting moths to a flame, it lured the three-striped Nether Tiger clan, blinded by rage, to charge forward one after another!
at last……
The moment one after another, tiger-shaped vengeful spirits roared and charged into the range of the soul-capturing trap—
Nie Xiaoqian's Yin energy suddenly erupted!
The previously subtle, invisible, and imperceptible aftershocks of soul-capturing energy were instantly infused with power!
It became incredibly sharp!
Like invisible blades, they suddenly tightened!
Swish swish swish... swish swish swish...
At last.
The three-striped Nether Tigers rushed into the trap at extremely high speed, before they even had time to react.
Their souls, formed from resentment, were instantly cut into countless fragments by these invisible blades!
In just a short while!
This trap, built from soul-capturing whispers, has become a hellish killing field!
A gray-black mist of resentment, and shattered fragments of the spirit tablet, scattered all over the ground!
Not only that.
Even though there have been huge casualties.
However, because those three-striped Nether Tigers were charging at such a high speed, there was no way to stop them instantly!
Ultimately, they had no choice but to rush into this death zone one after another!
Then, while moving at high speed, he was instantly torn to pieces and his soul was scattered!
......
[Ding! The contracted Yin creature has successfully killed a Rank 6 Three-Striped Nether Tiger... Your Yin Yuan cultivation has increased by 32 days, and the contracted Yin creature's Yin Yuan cultivation has increased by 32 days.]
[Ding! The contracted Yin creature has successfully killed a Rank 6 Three-Striped Nether Tiger... Your Yin Yuan cultivation has increased by thirty-three days, and the contracted Yin creature's Yin Yuan cultivation has increased by thirty-two days.]
[Ding! The contracted Yin creature has successfully killed a Rank 6 Three-Striped Nether Tiger... Your Yin Yuan cultivation has increased by thirty-three days, and the contracted Yin creature's Yin Yuan cultivation has increased by thirty-two days.]
[Ding! The contracted Yin creature has successfully killed a Tier 6 Three-Striped Nether Tiger... Your Yin Yuan cultivation has increased by 31 days, and the contracted Yin creature's Yin Yuan cultivation has increased by 32 days.]
Fang Han's Yin Yuan cultivation began to grow wildly at this moment!
It's like the experience points in a game being flooded!
And the Yin Yuan cultivation of these thirty-odd days was clearly the effect of the fourfold blessing from the underworld!
Fang Han reaped the benefits of Nie Xiaoqian's frenzied attack!
Although the growth of Yin Yuan cultivation is not as rapid as the feedback from the system's infusion.
However, this fourfold blessing is already considered highly efficient!
(No wonder the other contract envoys in Zhenhun Village all think of me as a cheat code for the underworld...)
(If I hadn't taken down the leaders of the Underworld one after another, the chances of these people surviving the tribulation would probably have been despair-inducingly low!)
......
"roar--"
now.
While Nie Xiaoqian was busy farming the Three-Striped Nether Tigers.
Seeing this, the elite three-striped Nether Tiger that was charging at the very back finally came to its senses from its berserk state!
They realized how terrifying the area ahead was!
It abruptly stopped its massive body!
They watched the area ahead, which resembled a strangulation field, with extreme vigilance!
Fear filled the tiger's blood-red eyes!
next second.
Accompanied by a terrifying tiger's roar!
This elite tiger-shaped vengeful spirit actually changed direction!
They fled in a sorry state into the depths of the jungle!
Seeing the elite tiger-shaped vengeful spirit flee, a glint of light flashed in Fang Han's eyes!
"Did you go find the Soul-Burning Blazing Tiger?"
He muttered something under his breath.
He then used his spiritual senses to summon Nie Xiaoqian.
He then took the lead, flapping his Netherworld Wings and silently following behind!
......
Nie Xiaoqian's reaction was also incredibly fast.
Moreover, with the help of their souls connected by the Yin Pact, they instantly understood Fang Han's meaning.
It immediately floated into the sky, flapped its pair of ghostly wings, and returned to Fang Han's side!
A human and a ghost, high above in the air, locked onto the elite three-striped Nether Tiger that was fleeing in panic.
They quickly caught up with another area shrouded in even denser gray fog!
But at this very moment—
Five three-striped Nether Tigers, each of the same enormous size, suddenly charged out of the jungle below!
Each one looked almost exactly like the one that had been chased before!
His whole body was filled with intense resentment!
Fang Han focused his gaze, and detailed information about these three-striped Nether Tigers immediately surfaced in his mind—
All of them are elite-level, a total of six!
at the same time.
When these six elite three-striped Nether Tigers gathered together and let out a menacing growl towards them in the sky—
A cold notification sound suddenly exploded in Fang Han's ears!
[Netherworld Warning: You have entered the territory of a rare, fifth-tier ferocious beast—the Soul-Burning Blazing Tiger King—and successfully enraged it! From this moment forward, you will be relentlessly hunted down by all its elite vengeful spirits! Danger Level… Five Fiends!]
[Netherworld Warning: Once all of the Blazing Tiger King's elite guards have been killed, you will bear the full wrath of this king of your race! At that time, the danger rating will be... Seven Fiends!]
