Chapter 1299 – Chapter 104 Changes In The Hungry Ghost Path

Chapter 104 Changes in the Hungry Ghost Path

The River of Forgetfulness, like a lion raising its back to the sky and about to jump up, crossed countless space distances from the Hell Path and went straight to the Beast Path and the Hungry Ghost Path.

The majestic momentum, the surging river, and the surging water on the ground were like thousands of fierce dragons, roaring all the way with thunder and lightning.

The river kept surging and roaring.

The water in the River of Forgetfulness was extremely violent. It was as if a mad dragon had fallen into it, rolling and surging. Its fierce state made people tremble with fear.

The water suddenly rose into the air and swooped down like a 100-meter sprint, sweeping toward the undefeated. Its thunderous roar echoed in everyone’s ears in a vast and mighty manner.

The black river water was surging as if it was telling people about its long journey.

Tens of thousands of streams flowed through countless regions, passing through the void and flowing into other paths.

At the end of the streams, there were circles of black vortexes that were suffused with black fog. The branches and souls flowed into them. It was as though they had flowed into the giant mouth of a hungry behemoth before they completely vanished.

Passing through there was the Hungry Ghost Path.

Shadows and ghosts were lying quietly in it, with no expression on their faces. They were unusually calm, flowing with the waves. It seemed that they were not moved by the rapid flow of the River of Forgetfulness, and their faces did not change even when a great mountain collapsed in front of them.

However, whoever stayed here for a long time would know that those ghosts were in a state of confusion and had no thoughts at all because they had just had Granny Meng’s soup and were in the River of Forgetfulness. Unless they entered another world or someone rescued them, they would stay this way.

Without any sound or warning, Ding Hao appeared here, but he did not give people a sense of abruptness, as if he belonged there.

Standing in the sky at the end of the River of Forgetfulness and looking ahead, Ding Hao looked thoughtful.

After a long while, running his power a bit, Ding Hao disappeared like a wisp of smoke.

In the Beast Path.

Because of the evil deeds in their previous life, the souls that were transferred from the Three Good Paths would be punished here. Then, they would enter the River of Forgetfulness and flow to the Hungry Ghost Path to be judged and then reincarnate.

Ding Hao came to the Hungry Ghost Path.

The Hungry Ghost Path, the yin and yang seawater had receded a lot, revealing many land areas that were distinct.

The Hungry Ghost Path was no longer the same as before. It was full of vitality and wood, and the air was no longer rotten. There was even a faint refreshing smell.

Of course, because of the rules of hunger in the world, the residents who lived here were still the same as before. No matter how much they ate, they were still hungry and suffered from hunger.

And the fierce beasts that had been stored here by Ding Hao in the past finally changed. Originally, they became agitated because of hunger, and even lost their minds, attacking the residents and even their own kind everywhere.

Yet now, after experiencing these past few years, they had finally become much more clear-headed. Even though they were unable to truly live peacefully here, they no longer slaughtered their own kind.

As for the natives who used to live in the ocean, most of the Valiant Ghosts had moved to land and lived on this new continent.

Nowadays, villages, towns, and even big cities in the Hungry Ghost Path had been built one by one.

The architectural style here was different from that of any other world. It was very strange, but there was a certain pattern, which made Ding Hao, who had just seen one of the cities, feel quite amazed.

The Great Valiant Ghosts and Little Valiant Ghosts were the same, and the ghosts of other races flourished during this period.

In the past, the status of the Great Valiant Ghosts was at the top of the pyramid. Although ghosts had been flourishing in recent days, their status was still higher than that of any other ghosts.

Ding Hao was not in a hurry to find the King of Great Valiant Ghosts first. After all, he had only heard some of what King Qinguang said. Although he had observed some abnormalities, he also needed to observe the situation here more to confirm if it was the same as what he thought.

Ding Hao hid in the void and did not attract any ghost’s attention. He entered the first town.

Looking at the ghosts coming and going, observing the ghost soldiers on patrol, including some high-level ghosts, such as the Great Valiant Ghost, Ding Hao could see that these ghosts were still the same as before. They had a strict hierarchy system. Low-level ghosts did not dare to show any disrespect to high-level ghosts.

However, Ding Hao, who was careful, also secretly noticed that the ghosts here were too multifarious and disorderly. They were not as calm and peaceful as they looked. On the contrary, there was a sense of chaos.

Seeing such a phenomenon, Ding Hao was lost in thought.

Although there were many buildings and ghosts in this town, there were no powerful ghosts. That was to say, this was just a small town, and there were no Ghost Kings.

After observing for a while, Ding Hao left the town, released his Divine Senses to scan the world, and soon found the nearest big city.

This city was extremely large, close to a hundred kilometers in circumference. It was the largest city in this region.

This city was called Qing Ming City.

“I remember that one of the Ghost Kings I fought before seemed to be called Qing Ming, who was a Great Valiant Ghost King. Maybe he is in this city…” Ding Hao thought. Running his power a bit, he appeared in front of the city.

He entered it easily. After observing for a while again, Ding Hao easily found the center of the city. It was a magnificent golden pyramid towering into the clouds, completely gold in color.

Through some observation, Ding Hao heard the conversations of many ghosts nearby. With the previous information, Ding Hao finally mastered most of the situations of the Hungry Ghost Path.

There were ten Ghost Kings in the Hungry Ghost Path. They were Jin Yu, Yin Quan, Qing Ming, Chi Huan, Zi Xing, Lan Mang, Hei Qu, Bai’e, Huang Dun, and Lv Ku.

In the vast Hungry Ghost Path, there were only ten main cities. Each main city had a pyramid, which was the unique residence of the Ghost King. Except for the Ghost King, no ghost was allowed to approach within 100 meters.

Every main city would be named after the Ghost King, such as Qing Ming City.

In addition, Ding Hao also learned all kinds of news, but most of them were about the situation of this main city, including the number of the small and big forces.

“This world is going to be in chaos again soon!” Ding Hao was walking when he suddenly heard a few elder ghosts in the distance whispering to each other. One of them suddenly said this sentence. Although his voice was low, it still fell accurately into the ears of Ding Hao.

Another ghost elder nodded and sighed. “Yeah. You see, although there were few kinds of ghosts here in the past, it was very balanced. As long as the time limit of suffering in this Hungry Ghost Path was up, ghosts could go to other places. Then, they could be reborn and no longer have to suffer from the hunger of this world.

“But now, since the development plan of the Ten Ghost Kings, not only can’t ghosts reincarnate, but there are more and more kinds of ghosts. As the forces grow, so does the population of ghosts. As a result, this place has become chaotic.”

The first ghost elder also sighed. “I really don’t know what the Ghost Kings are thinking. In order to strengthen their strength, they actually stopped the ghosts from entering the River of Forgetfulness and prevent them from being judged and reincarnating. It should be noted that this is about reincarnation. If the gods are infuriated, then…”

“Do you want to die? What the Ghost Kings do and what plans they have are not for us ordinary ghosts to talk about! If what we are discussing is spread out and the ghost soldiers in the city hear it, you, you, and I will be beheaded…” Just as the old man said this, another person suddenly interrupted him in a hurry and covered his mouth, for fear that he would get killed if he continued.

The other two ghost elders hastily shut their mouths. They also knew that their companion was telling the truth. They carefully looked around and saw that no one had noticed them, nor were there any ghost soldiers nearby. Only then did they sigh with relief.

“The Ghost Kings are preventing the ghosts from entering the River of Forgetfulness to strengthen their strength. They are really bold, humph…” With a flash in his eyes, Ding Hao disappeared into the void. It was unknown where he went.

…

The closer one got to the pyramid, the more patrolling soldiers there were.

In particular, about a hundred meters away from the pyramid, there were many ghost soldiers lined up in a row. Each of them looked ferocious, had the back of a tiger and the waist of a bear, and had a strong aura. They were staring fiercely at their surroundings as if they would kill anyone who got half a step closer to them.

All the ghosts knew that the 10 main cities were the strongest forces of the Hungry Ghost Path. The ten Ghost Kings represented the strongest kings. No powerful ghost or force could destroy the ten main cities, nor could they be the opponents of the ten Ghost Kings.

At the same time, most of the ghosts also knew that there were differences between these Ghost Kings. Among them, Qing Ming Ghost King was the most powerful and aggressive one.

Hundreds of meters away from the pyramid in the main city, there was a square with a radius of several miles, which was the martial arts practice field of Qing Ming City.

This was the training place for ghost soldiers and ghost generals.

The vast martial arts practice field was bustling with experts.

The ghost soldiers were practicing under the guidance of the ghost generals. A man was sitting above and looking down at his subordinates maneuvering troops and horses. He was a Ghost General, named Gu Jueluo.

He was the strongest ghost in Qing Ming City besides Qing Ming. He controlled most of the military forces in Qing Ming City. It could be said that he was second only to one ghost.

Suddenly, a ghost soldier came to Gu Jueluo, half-kneeling, and said loudly, “Your Excellency, we caught another group of ghosts who wanted to secretly cross the River of Forgetfulness and reincarnate.”

“Bring them up!” Gu Jueluo waved his hand.

As soon as he finished speaking, a team of ghost soldiers escorted dozens of injured and handcuffed ghosts to him, who knelt one after another.

Gu Jueluo’s eyes emitted a cold glint, and his voice was filled with killing intent as he said, “Humph, you all are quite bold. You dare to cross the river without permission and try to secretly reincarnate. Are you not taking the orders from His Majesty Qing seriously?”

The dozens of ghosts that were handcuffed trembled all over, and they didn’t even dare to breathe heavily. Some of them even began to beg for mercy.

But the ghost at the front looked calm as if he was not afraid of Gu Jueluo at all.

Gu Jueluo also noticed the young ghost with calm eyes. After being surprised for a while, he said coldly, “Boy, you have a backbone. Other ghosts are begging for mercy, but you don’t. Aren’t you afraid that I will kill you?”

“Gu Jueluo, if you want to kill me, just do it. There is no need to talk so much nonsense. Let me tell you, if you do anything against the Heaven Path, the heavens will punish you with karma sooner or later!” The ghost’s voice was firm, and he did not take Gu Jueluo’s threat seriously.
