Chapter 212: The Netherworld Palace

Wei Huo checked it out. The person buried inside was an ordinary person. However, the various armor and jade items he was wearing were not ordinary. The armor and jade items were made of rare materials. They were filled with inner Qi and could continuously replenish the corpse’s Qi to ensure that the corpse would not rot.

However, as time passed, everything would die. The inner Qi in the jade items was the same, and so was the corpse of the mortal.

The corpse had just sat up. Regardless of whether it had developed intelligence or not, it could not do anything to the two Legendary creatures. Hence, it seemed like it knew this and gradually collapsed back into the coffin.

The golden armor was no longer afraid. It flew up and checked the various items in the coffin carefully. Then, it said, “It’s not my style to return empty-handed from a treasure mountain. It won’t be long before I leave Kunlun Mountain and travel the world. How can I not have some starting capital?”

Wei Huo had not expected it to be lecherous, timid, and greedy. He glanced at the golden armor and said, “Are you really a piece of armor?”

The golden armor said, “I’m not battle armor. Am I human?”

As it spoke, it took out the burial items that were in the coffin. It did not find it difficult. It took off the two pieces of jade around the corpse’s waist and hung them around its waist. It also took a pearl from the corpse’s crown and stuffed it into its helmet. The pearl floated on its helmet and kept glowing.

“Pretend that this is my main body to draw the enemy’s firepower.”

Wei Huo found another tunnel in the tomb and walked inside. The golden armor followed him hurriedly. At that moment, the sound of a woman crying came from the tunnel. The golden armor was terrified. “What is crying? It might be something foul.”

Wei Huo strode forward. No matter what was inside, even if there were ghosts, they were just powerful spirits. He was used to them. Humans were afraid of such things because they were too weak. They would not be afraid if they became stronger.

Wei Huo moved forward while the golden armor followed him closely. Soon, Wei Huo saw a glimmer of light. The further they walked, the brighter the light became. When they walked out of this cave, they saw a huge underground cave. There was a majestic palace in the cave. The light was coming from the palace.

There was an enormous gate in front of the palace. On either side of the gate were two huge stone statues. The stone statues were not lions as people knew them to be. They were special animals. They had lion bodies, python tails, bat wings, and human heads.

The statues were very weird and unusual.

There was a plaque on the gate. On the plaque was the word ‘Netherworld’.

Wei Huo walked forward as if he wanted to open the gate of the Netherworld. However, the stone statues on either side came alive and tried to attack Wei Huo with their fangs and claws. Wei Huo suddenly emitted the Nirvana Domain. As soon as this domain was emitted, the two stone statues stopped.

They looked at each other and retreated without saying anything. They sat back on the ground obediently and stared ahead. However, they would occasionally turn their eyes to steal glances at Wei Huo.

The golden armor looked down on them. “These two are really cowards. They didn’t dare attack when they realized that we were at the Legendary stage.”

Wei Huo looked at the plaque on the gate and said, “I’m afraid that’s not the case.”

The Nirvana Domain kept expanding, and the aura of nirvanic extermination shrouded the cave. The door of the Netherworld suddenly opened, and a few spirit bodies in butler uniforms floated out. The spirit bodies made way and lowered their heads as if they were welcoming their owners back.

Wei Huo finally understood that his aura of nirvanic extermination was too strong. These spirits treated him as the owner of the Netherworld.

The golden armor was shocked. “There are really ghosts in this world. It’s unbelievable. So that’s what they look like.”

The ghosts in the Netherworld did not dare move amid Wei Huo’s aura of nirvanic extermination. That was why the golden armor was braver.

Wei Huo strode in. His intuition told him that the fifth level was still related to Qi Cultivation. It was best to figure it out.

Soon, a female servant appeared in the Netherworld. The golden armor was shocked at first before kneeling on the ground.

The female servants in the Netherworld were all wearing cheongsams. As they floated around, the golden armor overcame its fear and collapsed on the ground.

Wei Huo looked at it in disdain. When the golden armor saw him, it said, “Don’t look at me like that. I’m conducting great scientific research.”

Wei Huo kicked it out of his Nirvana Domain. Countless spirits shrouded it, causing it to scream in fear.

Wei Huo kept moving forward and entered the Netherworld. He then arrived at a majestic hall. There was a plaque hanging on the hall with the words ‘Netherworld King Palace’ written on it.

Wei Huo walked into the hall and saw a high and mighty throne, but there was no one on it.

At that moment, the golden armor rushed over. Once the spirit bodies had entered Wei Huo’s domain, they had become obedient. They thus lowered their heads and expressed their admiration for Wei Huo.

When the golden armor saw the throne, it encouraged him. “This chair was prepared for you. Since ancient times, it has been said that one can be presented with the title of the King. Your path is Nirvana, so you are now the Netherworld King.”

Wei Huo was confused. “How could there be such a coincidence? The Netherworld appeared on the fifth level when I left Nirvana.”

The golden armor started thinking as well. A moment later, it said, “You mean that the fifth level became this way because it draws upon your thoughts. This is a scene that took form based on your thoughts!”

Wei Huo suddenly came to a realization.

The dark underground cave, the pitch-black environment, and the Netherworld that represented death did match the concept of nirvanic extermination.

However, Wei Huo found a loophole. “How do you explain the murals and coffin? The fifth level is not that simple!”

The golden armor did not think much about it. “Maybe the murals and the coffin existed in your previous life?”

The golden armor’s words made sense. The genes of humans contained ancient memories, and deep in the hearts of humans were memories of a lifetime. Some people felt very familiar when they first arrived at a certain place, as if they had been there before.

“It’s easy to confirm if it’s something that draws from my thoughts!” Wei Huo strode forward and walked toward the throne. He turned around and sat on it. A moment later, the Netherworld King Palace started trembling, and all the spirits inside screamed.

There was also a faint crying sound. It was a woman’s voice. It was the sound that had attracted them there. It was echoing again.

Soon, the ceiling of the Netherworld King Palace was lifted. A gigantic female ghost appeared. Her black hair covered her face, and she was wearing a red dress. The corners of her dress were torn.

The miserable voice was coming from her mouth. The other spirit bodies around her disappeared and were absorbed by her, causing her body to grow larger.

The golden armor shouted, “It’s over, it’s over! This must be something you did in your previous life! You provoked her! She’s here to take revenge!”

After saying that, the golden armor lay on the ground again. As it lay down, it moved under the red female ghost’s skirt and mumbled, “Almost…”

Wei Huo: “…”

The red female ghost’s body grew larger. In the end, a small part of her hair that covered her face scattered, and her red eyes were exposed. She looked at Wei Huo and suddenly screamed, “No, you’re not him!”

Wei Huo asked sternly, “Who are you talking about?”
