Chapter 69: The Three Techniques of the Underworld King

  A cold voice suddenly rang out, "I think you don't need to go anymore, because I'm already here." A figure slowly emerged from the dark corner of the gate, and as the dim moonlight shone on it, the figure gradually became clear. It was a person wrapped in black scales all over his body, with long black hair scattered behind him, and an unremarkable face without any expression. Cold killing intent kept emanating from this person's body. What surprised everyone the most was the short sword inserted into the leather scabbard on his chest, no more than a foot long. The black gemstone on the hilt of the short sword seemed to be constantly attracting the soul of every person present, and a faint evil aura kept spreading out from the hilt. Horton took in a cold breath, the person he feared most was still here after all.

  He stared at the group of experts in front of him, his heart devoid of sorrow or joy, completely submerged in silence. In his mind, there was only one thought - to kill, to wipe out everyone present, only then could his heart be at peace. Horton is here, Catwoman is here, Ice! Please, your spirit in heaven, bless me and let me avenge you by killing these evil people.

  Horton's long sword flickered with a faint white glow, enveloping his body. The faint evil aura couldn't penetrate, but he still felt a chill run down his spine. Although there was only one opponent, this was the first time in his life that he felt his opponent was so strong, strong to the point where he seemed unable to resist at all.

  A'Dai's right hand grasped the hilt of the Ming Wang sword, his calm mind clearly telling him that there were too many masters, and it was impossible for him to resist with his own strength.

  The cat woman touched Horton and was also very surprised to see Ah Diao, but she had more resentment in her heart. When she thought of herself begging for survival from the young man in front of her, her heart was filled with anger. A green glow flashed, and her body had completely transformed into a cat. Sharp claws gleamed with dark green light, and her pupils turned into vertical lines. She clearly knew that only by killing the person in front of her could she calm her heart again. Her hand rose, and she coldly asked: "Was it you who set fire to Dark Night?"

  He nodded slightly, looking at the green glow on the cat girl's body. He narrowed his eyes, and a strong killing intent burst out from him. A faint white glow enveloped his body as he pushed his vital energy to its limit. "Not bad, Ah-Hao Ye should be reduced to ashes by now. Your subordinates are all dead too. Their sinful souls are beckoning you, I think it's time for you to join them."

  Hotton fiercely drew out the long sword in his hand and shouted angrily: "You actually destroyed the heart's blood of my many years."

  "A'Dai said coldly: 'Heart's blood? For your heart's blood, how many people have you killed and can you still count clearly? Bing died, she was killed because of me. Her only wish was to kill you. You ruined her life, today is the day for you to pay with your life. Although your life is so insignificant compared to her sacred life.'"

  Horton's long sword shone brightly under the urging of his strong fighting spirit, and the white sacred aura boosted his confidence. He pointed the sword at Ah-Dai and said, "Come on, kill him, and I'll reward you with 100,000 gold coins." His subordinates usually lived a life of luxury in the mansion, although they knew about yesterday's incident, but they didn't know that it was caused by Ah-Dai. Seeing this young man with an unusual outfit daring to provoke them at the city lord's mansion, they were already on the verge of exploding. As soon as they heard Horton's command, four figures flashed towards Ah-Dai like lightning. One knife, one sword, two long spears, and two powerful magic spells charged towards Ah-Dai, accompanied by surging fighting spirit. The rest of the people also had colorful auras flashing on their bodies, and the enormous pressure locked Ah-Dai firmly in place.

  His eyes gleaming with a fierce light, the immense pressure ignited the resentment in his heart. Remembering Bing's death, his entire body's power suddenly erupted, and his true energy surged into the Ming Wang sword. The evil aura instantly grew stronger, and the four experts in the air were slowed down by the invasion of the evil aura. The surrounding experts also retreated to protect themselves from the evil aura's attack.

  Seizing this opportunity, Ah-Dai moved, "Ming Wang Yi Shan Tian Di Dong." A dark blue light flashed, and the evil aura filled the entire courtyard. Ah-Dai's body turned into a shadow, flashing past the four people in front of him. The light converged, and everyone was stunned.

  In the instant when the Ming Wang sword was unsheathed, all the experts present felt a chill run down their spines. They exerted their full strength to resist the evil aura's attack, taking several steps back, their faces pale with fear. Their internal meridians seemed to be knotted, and their minds were dizzy. If they didn't have strong powers themselves, the evil aura would have taken their souls.

  Bang, bang, bang, bang, four light sounds, four people fell to the ground, no, it should be four dry corpses falling to the ground. Each of them had a wound on their brow, and their souls and flesh had been completely absorbed by the Ming Wang sword. The most pitiful were those two great magicians who didn't even have time to cast their spells, their weak bodies had already been completely corroded by the evil aura of the Ming Wang sword, standing still in place, losing their own souls.

  The cat woman and Horton exclaimed in unison: "Tian Xia Zhi Xie - Ming Wang Jian."

  "You're just realizing this now?" he said coldly. The reason he hadn't continued his attack was that, although his previous four-sword flash had killed four top experts, to break through their protective auras, he'd had to activate the evil energy of the Underworld Sword. The massive evil force not only absorbed the enemies' souls but also backlashed against his own body. The immense evil energy forced him to stop and use his own true energy to expel all the invading evil energy from his body. To his surprise, he found that the evil energy he'd expelled was all absorbed by the Dragon God's blood, which shone with a white light, and Ah-Dai quickly recovered to normal.

  Horton's body swayed slightly, and fear filled his entire being in an instant. Although he had the protection of the sacred sword in his hand, the evil aura almost broke through his own protective sacred aura, filling his entire body with a cold feeling. The cat girl was even more miserable than him. Although her skills were high, she found it difficult to bear that extremely evil aura. However, she reacted quickly and dodged behind Horton's back as soon as she felt the aura, thus avoiding being invaded by the evil energy, but also breaking out in a cold sweat. The reputation of the Underworld King was really too great. He was the number one killer in the world, roaming the mainland for thirty years without ever losing his hand. Six years ago, after his sudden disappearance, his extremely evil Underworld King sword also disappeared. Both Horton and the cat girl felt an irresistible feeling in their hearts - the Underworld King sword that had been missing for six years actually appeared before them. They clearly knew that they had offended not only a magician who could summon dragons but also a killer with the world's most evil Underworld King sword.

  "You, how did you get the Meng Wang Sword?" Horton's voice was trembling with inquiry.

  He sneered coldly and said, "Are you afraid? It's too late now. Why is the Nether King Sword in my hands? You're not worthy of knowing. Let me tell you, I am the Death God who ends all evil lives." Ah-Dai used the second move of the Nether King Sword for the first time, his body flashing out with a faint blue glow rushing forward. The dozens of experts surrounding him were struggling to withstand the overwhelming evil power as soon as the Nether King Sword appeared, and they had no chance to dodge Ah-Dai's illusory death figure.

  The figure of Ah-Dai, like a blue ghost, took away ten more lives. Under the brutal attack of the evil force, the masters were completely panicked. Among them, seven or eight of the strongest masters suddenly burst out, mobilizing all their strength to barely resist the impact of the evil energy. They swung their weapons and charged towards Ah-Dai, who had just finished using his "Requiem Flash" technique. They were terrified, knowing that if they didn't attack now, Ah-Dai's "Sword of the Underworld" would be unsheathed again, and they would be unable to withstand it. It was better to risk everything in one strike, for only by killing Ah-Dai could they save their own lives. At the same time as they launched their attack, Cat Girl pulled Holt, and like lightning, she rushed forward. As clever as she was, she naturally discovered that after Ah-Dai unleashed a sword strike, he would inevitably pause to catch his breath. Only by taking advantage of this opportunity would there be a chance to kill him.

  He knew his own weakness, but if he didn't use the Ming Wang sword, he couldn't withstand these powerful opponents. Before coming here, he had vowed to avenge Bing with his own strength. He also didn't dare to summon the Bone Dragon recklessly, as the Holy Evil had fallen asleep and without its intimidation, he didn't know if the Bone Dragon from the Demon Realm would suddenly betray him.

  After using Ming again, an even stronger evil aura invaded his body, and the silver light of his Golden Body resisted it. Facing the attacks of the crowd, Ah-Dai no longer had time to expel the evil aura from his body. He gritted his teeth and once again activated the evil sword on his chest, shouting: "Ming Wang Hua Jian Zhan - Li - Jue!"

  A dark blue light appeared in the sky, transforming into a giant blade with an extremely sharp edge. The blade swept out, carrying an aura of unparalleled ferocity and evil energy that was even stronger than before.

  Ah-Dai stood proudly in mid-air, like a demon god. The seven or eight powerful opponents who were attacked first all disappeared under this single slash. Miao Miao, the cat girl, knew something was wrong when Ah-Dai shouted, so she pushed Horton, who was attacking alongside her, and then quickly retreated.

  Horton accelerated towards Ah-Dai's blue light, but he didn't have time to curse the cat girl. With all his might, he swung out his Holy Sword, and a massive white light helped him block most of the evil aura. However, it couldn't withstand the Ming Wang sword's dark blue light. The Holy Sword was cut off by the tip of the blue light, and the holy energy burst forth but failed to stop the Ming Wang sword's eerie glow.

  Horton felt his body turn cold, and his strength and soul rushed towards his chest. His consciousness grew dim, and before he died, he saw a pair of blood-red eyes - Ah-Dai's eyes, which were also the eyes of death itself.

  A'Doh collapsed to the ground, panting nonstop. The cat woman had already escaped without a trace. The massive evil energy brought by Ming Wang's death was rampaging uncontrollably throughout the entire castle, and those remaining experts, the soldiers guarding the castle, as well as the city lord and his attendants who were severely ill, had all lost their souls due to their inability to resist the invasion of the evil energy. The Ming Wang sword had bathed the entire castle in blood, taking away hundreds of lives.

  A'Doh continued to pant nonstop. Although the Ming Wang sword had already been sheathed, the counterattacking evil energy was constantly devouring his body, and his will was gradually becoming blurred. A layer of faint gray gas enveloped the silver golden body in his dantian. Why? Why did it turn out like this? Master didn't say that with my current abilities I should be able to use four moves of the Ming Wang sword technique?

  But why did I only use three moves and almost couldn't withstand the counterattack? No, absolutely cannot be controlled by the evil energy. "No——" A'Doh's heart was filled with fear. He deeply knew that if he were controlled by the Ming Wang sword, what kind of consequences would there be? The protective ring on his left hand lit up, and a surging sacred aura flowed into his body through his arm, rapidly nourishing the meridians in his body and driving away the evil energy surrounding the silver golden body.

  A'Doh suddenly discovered that the second golden body at his chest was lightly trembling. The evil energy surrounding it was suddenly shaken off, and a strand of true energy like silk flowed downward, connecting with the silver golden body. A'Doh suddenly felt an explosive energy produced within his body. With a "poof" sound, he involuntarily stretched out his arm, and a thick layer of gray gas had been forced out of his body. The divine dragon's blood at his chest lit up, absorbing the gray gas.

  A'Doh collapsed to the ground, panting nonstop. He clearly felt that in order to counteract the massive evil energy, the silver golden body in his dantian had lost more than half its energy. The connecting energy of the second golden body also disappeared along with the disappearance of the evil energy. That strand of true energy seemed as if it had never appeared before.

  Despite this, A'Doh's heart was exceptionally excited. At the very least, he had already killed his arch-nemesis. Unfortunately, the cat woman had escaped. After a while, A'Doh slowly stood up, touched the Ming Wang sword at his chest, and felt that its boundless evil power was truly a double-edged sword. Although its might was great, it also had extreme danger.

  Looking around at the corpses and the walking dead, A'Doh's heart didn't have any sorrowful expressions. He felt that his chest was very comfortable. Walking to Horton's corpse, A'Doh took out Bing's head image and let her face the corpse. "Bing, did you see? I've already avenged you by killing Horton, that beast who ruined your life. You can rest assured that I absolutely won't let off that cat woman who heavily injured you. Next time we meet will be her death date."

  A'Doh gently stroked the head image. He felt as if Bing was smiling. The pressure in his heart disappeared. A'Doh stretched out his right hand, and yellow energy threads under his control continuously carved on the castle wall, leaving behind two clear characters with a diameter of one meter——"Death God".

  Looking at his own masterpiece, Ah-Dai gave a cold smile. All evil forces, wait for it, wait for the arrival of the God of Death. I will make you all fall under my most evil Underworld Sword, one by one. Carefully putting away the icy head sculpture, Ah-Dai unfolded his body and flew out from the wall, leaving behind this already lifeless city lord's mansion.

  The incident at the castle lord's mansion was not discovered until the next day, and when the corpses were found, everyone was stunned. The two large characters "Death God" on the wall deeply shocked every person's soul. People learned from the surviving maid of the Dark Night Club that this Death God was the one who had destroyed the Dark Night Club and annihilated the entire castle lord's mansion. People naturally associated it with the golden light of the previous night, and the news spread quickly throughout the streets and alleys. The name "Death God" was deeply imprinted in the hearts of every citizen of Black City, and people began to panic. Those who engaged in dark professions all restrained themselves, trembling with fear, not daring to do evil again. They were afraid that they would be Death God's next target. In their minds, he was no longer human, but a god sent from heaven. Finally, the Church intervened in this matter, relying on its vast influence to gradually suppress the incident, but the name "Death God" would not be forgotten by anyone. On the contrary, those who were oppressed by dark forces in their daily lives secretly rejoiced, and without the oppression of the castle lord's mansion, their lives returned to normal. They even prayed for and looked forward to Death God's next arrival.

  …………

  In the forest, Rock Brother and Elf Girl were anxiously waiting. Ah-Dai had been gone for a long time. In the distant sky, a glimmer of dawn was gradually appearing, and the dark sky was slowly turning into deep blue. Dawn had arrived, but Ah-Dai still hadn't returned. Rock Force thought of going to Black Castle to find Ah-Dai several times, but was stopped by Rock each time. He clearly understood that now they could only wait, waiting for Ah-Dai's return.

  A ghostly figure appeared in the direction of the rising dawn, the black shadow's speed was extremely fast, and it flashed towards the forest like lightning. The Rock Brothers tensely drew out their weapons, all they had experienced in the Dark Castle had made them as nervous as a startled bird. The Elf girl's spiritual power had not fully recovered yet, but she still chanted an attacking spell, several tree vines emerged from the ground and crawled to the front of the three people, if that black shadow was unfavorable to them, the Elf girl would control these vines to launch an attack.

  The figure was approaching quickly, and finally, under the illumination of the dawn, the rock saw clearly that the approaching figure was Ah-Dai, who had gone to the Dark City. He was wrapped in a full-body armor made of giant spirit snake skin, and was rushing towards them. Although his face was somewhat pale, his spirit seemed extremely excited. "Ah-Dai——" The Rock brothers shouted out in unison.

  A'Dai leaped high, floating to the front of the Rock Brothers, and the two brothers tightly hugged A'Dai's shoulders without saying a word. The anticipation and anxiety of one night finally brought back their own brother, and their hearts were completely excited. A'Dai was back, alive and back, with not even a single blood stain on his body. Whether he succeeded or not, at least he was still alive.

  A'Dai patted the broad shoulders of his rock brother, and the thick fraternal affection warmed his cold heart. "Two big brothers, don't worry, I'm fine."

  After a while, the Rock brothers' excited emotions gradually calmed down. The rock looked up and down at Ah Dumb, "Brother, you're back! We were all worried to death. What's going on? How is the Dark City now?" Ah Dumb's face revealed a hint of cold smile, "What else can it be? The Dark Night Guild is already gone. Those evil people in the City Lord's mansion have also been killed by me. Horton is dead, and I've avenged half of Ice's hatred. Unfortunately, I let the Cat Girl escape."

  The Rock Brothers and the Elf Girl were completely stunned, they clearly knew that Ah-Dai was fighting against the entire Dark City's forces! He actually single-handedly destroyed the largest casino in Dark City and killed Horton, how unbelievable is that?! Yan Li muttered: "Brother, how did you do it?"

  He pointed to the Ming Wang sword on his chest and said lightly, "It was its help that I did it. Those evil spirits have been absorbed by the more evil Ming Wang sword."

  A glimmer of unease flashed through Shi Yan's heart, and he furrowed his brow. "Brother, didn't you say we wouldn't use the Netherworld Sword?"

  He shook his head and said, "No, I've changed my mind. The Meng Wang sword may be the most evil in the world, but it also has its own use. From now on, I will never go easy on those evil people again. I will make them one by one drink hatred under my Meng Wang sword."

  Yan Shi suddenly grabbed Ah Dai's shoulder and said loudly, "Ah Dai, I know Ah Bing's death was a huge blow to you, but I don't want you to become like this. Do you really want to become a demon who kills people? Come back, big brother still likes the simple and kind Ah Dai from before, not the bloodthirsty Ah Dai of now."

  He didn't move or struggle as the rock held him in place, but his expression gradually became agitated. A layer of mist appeared at the bottom of his eyes, and he exclaimed excitedly: "No, I don't want to be that stupid Ah-Dai again! If it wasn't for my weakness, Bing wouldn't have died. It's all my fault, I'm the one who killed her. I regret it so much, I really do. If only I had killed the cat woman with one sword back then, even if the poison in Bing's body was severe, I would have definitely thought of a way to save her. I want to kill, I want to kill, I want to kill all the evil people in the world!" He suddenly shook his arms violently, shaking off the rock's grip, and his entire body surged with a fierce killing aura, convulsing uncontrollably. His eyes were filled with bloodshot veins, making him look extremely terrifying.

  The rock was shaken by Ah-Dai's double arms, he knew that no matter what he said now, Ah-Dai would not listen. He sighed and said: "Alright, let's talk about it later. You sit down first and rest for a while. Anyway, after this time we made a big fuss in the Dark City, from now on we will inevitably have difficulty taking a single step in the Empire of Sunset. That cat woman has a huge force behind her back, we must be careful."

  "Sorry, Brother Rock, I got too excited."

  Yan Li patted Ah Dai's shoulder and said, "No matter what you become, we are still your brothers. Big Brother is also doing it for your own good, he doesn't want you to be blinded by hatred."

  A'Dai nodded slightly, a night of hard work had left him exhausted, he slowly sat down on the ground, leaning against the big tree behind him.

  The rock saw Ah Dumb calm down, and then said: "If you want to find out the whereabouts of other elves, our identities must not be exposed easily. Ah Dumb, from now on, don't wear your magician's robe anymore. We'll all change into ordinary civilian clothes to disguise ourselves. Let's try to take some remote small roads to move forward."

  The spirit girl walked up to the three of them and said in a slightly timid tone, "Thank you for saving me. I, I don't know what to call you yet."

  Yanli burst out laughing and said, "I'm Yanli, this is my big brother Yanshi, and the magician who summoned the dragon is our little brother Adai. From now on, just call us by our names. Our purpose in coming to the Empire of Sunset is to rescue all of your people, which was entrusted to us by the Elf Queen." Then, he recounted the process of how the three of them received the entrustment from the Elf Queen in the City of Elves.

  After listening to Iwao's account, the elf girl's eyes were filled with gratitude, and tears of excitement flowed down. Suddenly, she knelt down on the ground with a thud, choking back her words: "Thank you, thank you for helping our elven tribe. If it weren't for your rescue, I'm afraid I would have fallen into the hands of those humans by now."

  Yan Li hastily helped the elf girl up, and Yan Shi walked in front of her, speaking softly: "Elf sister, don't cry anymore. Now you are completely free. Once we rescue all your captured tribesmen, we will send you back to the Elf City. Alright? Now, tell us, how many of your tribesmen were captured, and where they are likely to be."

  The fairy girl suddenly burst into laughter, her brilliant smile as moving as a blooming flower. "Who are you calling 'fairy little sister', I'm 141 years old this year."

  The rock suddenly remembered the fairy's age ratio, and was speechless. Rock laughed and said: "Then we should call you Fairy Elder Sister."

  The elf girl smiled slightly and said: "Actually, in proportion, I am equivalent to a human around twenty years old."

  The idiot sitting on the ground said faintly: "Elf sister, do you know where your other captured tribesmen are?"

  The fairy girl's face darkened, and she shook her head, saying: "I don't know. My name is Zhuo Yun, and when I was in the Fairy Forest, my sister and I were caught by a group of black-clothed men. They gave us a kind of anesthetic that kept our minds in a daze. When I woke up, I found that there were sixteen fairies captured, including our little princess. Those black-clothed men were very cold and never spoke to us. We were imprisoned in several horse-drawn carriages for an unknown period. Later, my tribesmen were taken away one by one, and I was brought to the Dark Night Casino with another sister and a brother. They were taken away not long ago, leaving only me behind. I have no idea where they are now. You must save my people! They were captured by those terrifying humans, and their fate must be miserable." Zhuo Yun's big eyes turned red, her transparent wings fluttered gently behind her back, and a sorrowful expression appeared on her face.

  "The rock murmured, 'According to you, our judgment is correct. The spirits must have been sold to various places in the Empire of Sunset. It seems we can only search for them one place at a time.'"

  Ah-Dai suddenly thought of a question, took out the emerald green Spirit Ring from Shen Long's blood and said: "Zhuo Yun sister, if you've always been by our side, how can the Spirit Ring sense the aura of your other tribesmen?"

  Zhuo Yun said, "This is simple. As long as the Spirit Ring absorbs a drop of my blood, it won't sense my aura anymore. You can use it to investigate other tribe members." She walked over to Ah Dai, lightly biting her index finger to create a small wound, and dripped a drop of her own blood onto the Spirit Ring. Indeed, just as she said, the Spirit Ring's glow gradually dimmed, slowly returning to its original dull, dark green color.

  "Let's take a break here first and wait for Ah Diao to adjust his body. Then, we'll find a place to change our clothes and head to the next city to look for the spirit's whereabouts."

  A'Dai nodded, stopped talking, closed his eyes and began to meditate. He cultivated for a whole day and night before adjusting his body to its peak state. A'Dai discovered that the silver golden body in his dantian seemed to have absorbed some of the energy from the second golden body given by Tian Gang Sword Saint, and his power had increased slightly.

  Two days later, they found a secluded village and bought several sets of ordinary civilian clothes from the locals. In order to cover Zhuo Yun's elf characteristics, they even bought her a hat and used a cloak to cover up her transparent wings on her back. From the outside, no one could tell her identity anymore. And so, the four of them continued on their journey to save the elves.

  At this time, the name of the Death God had already spread throughout the Empire of the Setting Sun.

  Assassin's Guild.

  "What? Death God? Where did this Death God come from?" The master asked with some shock.

  The vice president of the Assassin's Guild said respectfully: "According to the news from the Thief's Guild, a big event occurred in Dark City. Not only was the largest casino destroyed, but also the city lord's mansion was bloodbathed, and no one could escape. On the previous night, a golden divine light appeared in Dark City, and 1% of the entire city disappeared, the scene was extremely bizarre."

  The monarch fell into deep thought, and after a long while, said: "Do you know how the people in the City Master's mansion died?"
