Chapter 1053-1056

Chapter 1053 – The Attack Has Already Begun

Upon listening to the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor, Zhao Hai couldn't help but stare. Then he quickly understood that the Ghost Emperor was probing. First he asked Zhao Hai about who sent him and then he introduced himself. This was to see Zhao Hai's reaction. Zhao Hai was now assured that the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor was from the Cultivation Realm, and that he was a fierce character.

Zhao Hai's guess wasn't wrong, Yin Wind Ghost Emperor was truly a hard to deal with character in the Cultivation Realm. This person's cultivation on the ghost dao was immeasurably deep, to the point of being in control of countless ghosts. Moreover, his yin wind techniques were unparalleled under the heavens.

At the same time, this person had the attitude of holding on to grudges. He doesn't care about his status. There was a case when the Elders of a huge sect managed to offend him, so he didn't hesitate and target the lower-ranked disciples of the sect. This was an act that someone of his level generally wouldn't do.

Because his cultivation was quite powerful, even if he cannot defeat you, you still wouldn't be able to catch him. Therefore, in the Cultivation Realm, the name Yin Wind Ghost Emperor would always induce headaches to those who heard it.

In the Cultivation Realm, if your family or sect was strong, then it doesn't necessarily mean that nobody would provoke you. People like the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor completely disregarded face. These kinds of evil people were the ones who gave people the most painful headaches.

Unfortunately for the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor, today was not his lucky day. This was because he was against Zhao Hai. Also, Zhao Hai wasn't from the Cultivation Realm, something that Yin Wind Ghost Emperor wouldn't be on guard against.

Zhao Hai looked at the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor and smiled, "This one has seen the Ghost Emperor. Please forgive me, I have never heard of the Ghost Emperor's name before today. I just came here to ask the Ghost Emperor to leave the Underworld, this place belongs to me."

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor looked at Zhao Hai, he didn't know what to say. Zhao Hai's tone and voice looked very respectful. However, the contents of Zhao Hai's message was actually impolite. This was the Emperor's first encounter with this situation in a long time.

After a while, the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor finally reacted, his face turned blue as he said, "Kid, do you know who you're speaking to? Tell me who sent you? Even the person who sent you wouldn't dare talk to me this way."

Zhao Hai wanted to roll his eyes, but then he suddenly had an idea. He laughed and said, "Yin Wind Ghost Emperor, if I said that I haven't heard your name, then I haven't heard your name. Also, I'm not afraid to tell you who sent me. The person who sent me is more powerful than you. Not only does he control the Divine Realm, he also controls the Ark Continent, the Demon Realm, the Barbarian Plane, as well as a lot of small and large planes. He's someone you can't compare to." Although Zhao Hai didn't say the person's name, the mere fact that the person controls the Divine Realm, Demon Realm, Ark Continent, and Barbarian Plane was enough of a clue for the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor to know that the person was Lu Wei.

Even if Zhao Hai didn't really know who Yin Wind Ghost Emperor was, he knew that it would be better if Lu Wei had more enemies. Also, the reason why Zhao Hai mentioned the Ark Continent and the Barbarian Plane was because he didn't want the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor to get the wrong person. After all, the Divine Realm and the Demon Realm were names that high-level planes would commonly have. There would be no point if Yin Wind Ghost Emperor found the wrong guy.

Actually, Zhao Hai's guess was correct. In the Cultivation Realm, there were groups who control other planes, but not as much as Zhao Hai thought. But even so, there were planes that called themselves the Divine Realm or the Demon Realm. After all, the people in these planes wouldn't be aware of the Cultivation Realm as well as the multitude of other planes. If the leaders of these planes feel proud of their home, they would want to place themselves into an overbearing position. And what was more domineering than calling your plane either the Divine Realm or the Demon Realm.

When the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor heard Zhao Hai, his eyes flashed before he coldly snorted, "Is that so? Nevertheless, those who offend the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor wouldn't be able to escape. Today, I will capture you and refine your soul. I will make sure that you will not be able to reincarnate."

Zhao Hai laughed and replied, "Yin Wind Ghost Emperor, you overestimate yourself. Even if you are powerful, this is not the Cultivation Realm, this is the Underworld. It is impossible for your real body to come here, just your incarnation. How strong are you right now? One-tenth? One-twentieth? With that strength, and you still want to catch me? Are you dreaming? And you might as well stop using your spiritual force on me. Yin Wind Ghost Emperor, I didn't know that you were this naive!"

Upon hearing this, the Ghost Emperor's expression couldn't help but undergo a drastic change. What Zhao Hai said wasn't wrong. The moment he entered the hall, he was already being attacked. Zhao Hai just pretended that he didn't discover anything. He used this moment to speak out in order to issue a blow to the Ghost Emperor's confidence.

He didn't know how long the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor has lived for, and he also didn't know how many old monsters the Ghost Emperor has defeated. Because of this, Zhao Hai didn't dare to treat this matter lightly. Before entering the Dark Temple, he already made the Scanner analyze the area. The design and construction of the Temple wasn't just for looks, it was also crucial to this fight.

Built alongside the Dark Temple were numerous formations. Some of these formations focus on controlling the Undead, while some worked to improve the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor's spiritual force.

Naturally, the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor was aware that his incarnation wasn't invincible in the Underworld. Because of this, he needed to augment his strength, and amplifying his spiritual force was the best choice. While building the Dark Temple, he made sure to install magic formations in order to enhance his spiritual strength.

Another reason for these formations was to protect his incarnation. The incarnation isn't very strong while in the Underworld. Also, the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor discovered something. The Underworld's Dark Mist has an influence on the incarnation. If the Dark Mist was allowed to exist near the incarnation, then the incarnation might go out of control and become an independent Undead Creature in the Underworld.

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor certainly wouldn't let this happen. Therefore, he made the Dark Temple in order to protect the incarnation, keeping the Dark Mist from entering the temple. It was for this reason that the Ghost Emperor didn't leave the Temple.

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor had already discovered the peculiarity about Zhao Hai. With his profound insight, he actually couldn't see the depth of Zhao Hai's strength. This caused the Ghost Emperor to be startled. Because of this, he decided to deal with Zhao Hai from the very beginning. The moment Zhao Hai was about to enter the hall, the Ghost Emperor's moves had already started. From the monsters at the door to the words he spoke, everything was done in order to exert pressure on Zhao Hai. And Zhao Hai seems to fall into his trap.

However, the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor didn't expect that Zhao Hai also had plans against him, and that Zhao Hai started much sooner. Zhao Hai's analysis of the Dark Temple didn't come up with nothing. Ever since Zhao Hai acquired the Heart Defending Clan's inheritance, he was able to learn about the formations that had been analyzed by the scanner. He knew that the Dark Temple was actually the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor's weapon, a very formidable weapon. Not only could this weapon protect the Ghost Emperor, it could also deal with the enemies who dared to enter the Dark Temple.

However, Zhao Hai still decided to enter the Dark Temple. He wanted to see how strong the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor really was. Most importantly, Zhao Hai wanted to capture the Ghost Emperor's incarnation so that he could gain a better understanding of the Cultivation Realm.

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor's face was pale as he looked at Zhao Hai. Then with clenched teeth, he said, "Good, good. I didn't think that you would be aware of it for a long time. However, you have entered my Dark Temple. Don't even think of escaping."

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "I really don't know how this Temple could be a threat to me. Although you have arranged magic formations, these formations only augment your spiritual attacks or trap your enemies. These formations are useless against me. Yin Wind Ghost Emperor, I advise you to withdraw your incarnation. Or else, don't blame me if I choose to refine it."

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor laughed and said, "Alright, Kid. You're really arrogant. You're the first person to talk to me like that in many years. Hahaha. Do you think you can withstand the spiritual attacks of the Temple? Have you forgotten about those bone beasts? Are you aware of what kinds of beasts those are?"

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and replied, "I wouldn't dare underestimate the Ghost Emperor's schemes. Those bone beats should be famous monsters from the Cultivation Realm. In order to increase your security, you killed those monsters and sent them to the Underworld in order to protect your incarnation. Even if they are dead, they are still formidable. More importantly, you refined these beasts and made them into your puppets. Did I say anything wrong?"

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor's expression turned dark. He didn't expect Zhao Hai to know about these things. This was equal to having one of his cards exposed.

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor angrily shouted, "It's useless to say anything more. I'll let my subordinates do the talking!" Then the Ghost Emperor's figure flew and slowly hid himself inside the Dark Temple. At the same time, several beast skeletons began to flood the hall.

The beast skeletons rushed into the hall but in a blink of an eye they vanished. Zhao Hai also discovered that the surrounding landscape had changed. It wasn't the Dark Temple anymore. Instead he seems to be inside a Ghost Forest. There were various malicious ghosts wandering randomly all around him.

Zhao Hai knew that the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor had already activated his formation. This formation was the same type as the Five Element Killing Formation, it was a formation meant to kill.

However, Zhao Hai wasn't worried. He also knew that the beast skeletons should be in the vicinity waiting for an opportunity to attack him. Zhao Hai just wanted to see how powerful this killing formation really was.

Zhao Hai had already made Cai'er look into the formation. In fact, when the formation started, Laura and Cai'er were already paying attention to the monitor. This killing formation wasn't as good as the Five Element Killing Formation. Although Zhao Hai could see a lot of ghosts around him, these ghosts seem to be completely harmless. Those who can attack were those skeleton beasts that were lying in ambush.

On the Space's monitor, these ghosts weren't shown at all. This meant that the ghosts had no attacking power. They were only used to scare people and make sounds.

On the other hand, the skeleton beasts were clearly displayed on the monitor. Because of this, Zhao Hai wasn't worried at all.

Zhao Hai quietly stood there and watched the ghosts. Although the ghosts looked very real, just like real malicious spirits, Zhao Hai just regarded them as mere showpieces in a movie, not threatening in any manner.

Zhao Hai had a lot of contact with the Undead. So regarding things like ghosts, he certainly would not feel anything.

On the other hand, the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor's expression was quite ugly as he looked at Zhao Hai's reaction. This formation was an imitation of the Ghost Emperor's weapon, the Ten Thousand Ghosts Scepter's Ten Thousand Ghosts formation. But unlike the real thing, the ghosts of this formation were almost illusory. Only after absorbing the Dark Mist for a period of time would these ghosts transform and carry out physical attacks. The ghosts from the real Ten Thousand Ghost Scepter were incomparably powerful.

Yin Wind Ghost Emperor's Ten Thousand Ghost Scepter was the golden scepter that he was holding. However, that scepter was also just an incarnation. The Ghost Emperor certainly wouldn't send his most important treasure to the Underworld. He placed a lot of effort in developing the treasure, and it was also the source of most of his strength.

A person like the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor can be said to have enemies in all places. Because of this, he wouldn't dare even think about parting with his most important weapon. Although it would be very helpful for his cultivation to send the scepter, preserving his own life was much more important.

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor didn't tell this to Zhao Hai, but he had been behaving for quite some time. However, this wasn't due to his own decision. This was because the Ghost Emperor had offended a very strong person. If he was found by this enemy, then he would be in great trouble. Because of this, the Ghost Emperor behaved and focused on managing Underworld.

Chapter 1054 – The Attack of an Enraged Yin Wind Ghost Emperor

Zhao Hai looked at the ghosts. He sensed that the ghosts were winding up for attack. At the same time, Zhao Hai could feel the ghosts absorbing the Dark Mist and beginning to materialize.

Zhao Hai's spiritual force has been greatly enhanced. Additionally, he has been training how to use his spiritual force with Berry these past few days. Because of this, he was now quite skillful in using his spiritual force.

It can be said that although the Succubi weren't the strongest when it came to spiritual forces, no other race could compare to them when it came to control.

The Succubi were born with spiritual force, it was their racial skill. One shouldn't underestimate this innate skill. It was said that reaching the peak needed 99% diligence and 1% talent. This 1% of talent was often much more important than the other 99%. Just like how the Dwarves were innately born with sensitivity towards metals, the Succubi were innately born to control spiritual force in a minute level.

Minute control and ordinary control were totally different. If ordinary control was sewing clothes, this minute control was embroidery.

Minute control was transforming spiritual force into filaments and controlling it. And this wasn't just a two step approach, it was also a balancing act on what to focus on.

Zhao Hai trained in minutely controlling his spiritual force because he had analyzed the formations of the Dark Temple ahead of time, he was prepared for this attack. Just as the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor launched the formation, Zhao Hai immediately controlled his spiritual force to cover the entire formation.

He was able to look at the formation because of this ability. This allowed him to not only know that the ghosts could make spiritual attacks, but they could also inflict physical damage.

This caused Zhao Hai to be surprised. Spiritual and physical attacks were totally different. Moreover, it was very hard to defend against this kind of transforming attack.

For example, a ghost would throw itself over to Zhao Hai, but the ghost just passed through his body and didn't do any harm. The next time, when a ghost would fly towards Zhao Hai, he could choose to ignore it. However, this time, the ghost would suddenly make an attack. In this case, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Because of this, Zhao Hai was thinking that the formation was adaptable and strong. However, Zhao Hai didn't know that the formation didn't actually have that many effects. This formation collects ten thousand living souls and refines them. Then it would release the souls to attack the enemy. Its only strategy was ghost swarming, nothing else.

A person's living soul and fiery souls were completely different. Fiery souls were mutated souls that allowed the Undead to absorb energy and obtain life. On the other hand, living souls were souls obtained after a human just died. It was the thing that allowed humans to grow stronger when they were alive, it also allowed them to reincarnate after death. If its owner had grievances when they were alive, the living souls would turn into malicious ghosts. It was totally different from fiery souls.

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor was also paying attention to Zhao Hai. After seeing Zhao Hai standing there and not moving, the Ghost Emperor began to form ideas in his mind. But he wasn't thinking that Zhao Hai didn't dare to move. He hasn't fought with Zhao Hai before, and even if his incarnation wasn't that strong in the Underworld, he still had his insight. He was aware that Zhao Hai wasn't weak. It can be said that Zhao Hai was the strongest person he ever met after entering the Underworld. This formation shouldn't be enough to scare Zhao Hai.

In fact, the Ten Thousand Ghosts formation's use was just to surround Zhao Hai and confuse his sight and hearing. This way, the beast skeletons would be able to find an opportunity to make an attack.

Zhao Hai was paying attention to the formation as well as the beast skeletons. And in both subjects, Zhao Hai wasn't able to find anything special. Then while observing the Dark Temple, Zhao Hai discovered that there was a small formation on the skull of a beast skeleton. This caused him to be startled. Then he traced the skull to see anything else special.

Originally, Zhao Hai wasn't able to see any difference between these beast skeletons and the beasts in the Underworld. But then, Cai'er gave him a reminder. After looking at the skulls of the skeleton beasts, Cai'er suddenly said, "Young Master, these beasts aren't from the Underworld. They have eyes!"

Those words reminded Zhao Hai that the beasts in the Underworld didn't have eyes. On the other hand, these skeleton beasts had eye sockets. And after thinking about where they were and the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor, it seems like Zhao Hai had correctly guessed the identity of these skeleton beasts. In his dialogue with the Ghost Emperor, Zhao Hai just deliberately said those words as a probe. He didn't expect that he was right.

The skeleton beasts were now making their move, their actions were very smooth and it seems like they were following a certain rhythm. Inside the Ten Thousand Ghost formation, they were able to walk discreetly. If Zhao Hai wasn't paying attention to them using fine threads of his spiritual force, then he wouldn't have been able to feel them.

The skeleton beasts were probably controlled by the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor. Because of this, they were able to hide their energy while moving.

Any creature, as long as they had energy, would emit energy when they move. On the other hand, these beast skeletons didn't emit any energy while moving. This wasn't an accident, the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor was certainly using tricks.

While Zhao Hai was thinking about this, a skeleton beast about five meters away from him began to crouch in preparation to strike!

Just as the skeleton beast pounced, Zhao Hai waved his hand and turned his Blood Ghost Staff into a sledgehammer and then swung it towards the skeleton beast's skull. The skeleton beast shook, and before it could respond, Zhao Hai turned the sledgehammer into a huge net that covered the entire beast. After that, Zhao Hai pulled the net and just like a basketball, he flung it over and shot it straight into the Space.

The process might look very slow, but it actually happened very fast. It was like how you catch the ball and then lobbed it into the basket immediately.

When the skeleton beast was sent to the Space, the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor immediately felt that his connection to the beast was cut off. This caused him to be surprised. One must know that although the beasts weren't that strong in the Cultivation Realm, a lot of time was spent refining them. Now that someone had stolen one, how could he not be angry?

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor felt his lungs explode with rage. But at this moment, several skeleton beasts threw themselves towards Zhao Hai. Although Zhao Hai's movements were quick, this also left him with an opening. The beasts used this opportunity to attack.

However, Zhao Hai did something that the beast never expected. His body flashed and then reappeared a few meters away. This change in position made the skeleton beasts attack the empty air.

Zhao Hai didn't think too much about them as he moved and rushed towards the skeleton beasts. But the beasts were slippery, they immediately retreated to the sea of ghosts, disappearing from sight.

Zhao Hai wanted to catch the skeleton beasts, but unfortunately, he was stopped by the ghosts that have already materialized.

Because of the Dark Mist, the ghost were now tangible. Naturally, they were different compared to real malicious ghosts, and their strengths were worse. Nevertheless, they have materialized and now had fighting power.

At this time, Zhao Hai stopped. Then he turned the head of his Blood Ghost Staff into a lotus. Zhao Hai raised his staff as it emitted light, it was as though the sun had just risen.

This was light magic, moreover it was a wide-scale light magic called Descent of the Holy Light. Light element was the nemesis of Dark Energy, and these ghosts were made out of dark energy. Along with the flash of this light element magic, the ghosts screeched before they vanished.

After using his light magic, Zhao Hai moved and appeared beside a skeleton beast. While the skeleton beast was still struggling under the light magic, Zhao Hai caught its neck and then threw it into the Space.

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor didn't expect Zhao Hai to use light element magic in the Underworld. One must know that Dark Energy was prevalent in this plane, there were almost no other energy here. However, Zhao Hai actually managed to cast light magic, and a very strong one at that. It didn't take long before the ghosts of the imitation Ten Thousand Ghost Formation vanished under the light magic assault.

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor felt that he was going crazy. He couldn't understand how a monster like Zhao Hai exists. The formation simply had no effect on him. He treated the temple as though it was his own back garden.

After seeing Zhao Hai steal another skeleton beast, the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor's eyes turned red. He fiercely waved his Ten Thousand Ghost Scepter and then muttered an incantation.

The incantation made the eyes on the Ten Thousand Ghost Scepter's skull light up with red light. However, this light didn't shoot towards Zhao Hai, but to the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor instead!

Chapter 1055 – Twilight Divine Water

As the red light entered the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor's body, he began to turn paler and paler before he eventually vanished. On the other hand, the Ten Thousand Ghost Scepter began to grow and grow. In the end, the scepter's handle vanished, leaving the golden skull flying in the air. When the skull became as large as a normal human head, it began to burst into flame.

Soul Sacrifice!

This was the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor's special ability. He would offer his souls to the scepter in order to cast a type of self-destruct spell, amplifying the energy supplied by a factor of ten.

It can be said that if he wasn't pushed into a corner, then the Ghost Emperor wouldn't have used this move. Actually, this didn't matter in the Underworld. The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor in the Underworld was just an incarnation, so was the Ten Thousand Ghost Scepter. It would not be the worst if he lost these two things. What the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor wanted was to kill Zhao Hai!

Zhao Hai saw the changes that happened to the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor and his expression turned solemn. His was because he found out that after combining with the scepter, the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor had gotten very powerful.

At this time, the unification was done. The skull's two blood red eyes looked at Zhao Hai before it opened its mouth and issued a loud cry! A sound attack went out of its mouth and headed towards Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai waved his hand, making a light blue shield appear in front of him. The shield looked like water as it rotated in place. It didn't take long before the sound attack was neutralized.

Naturally, the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor wasn't expecting that he would be able to easily deal with Zhao Hai. After this sound attack, golden yellow flames began to fiercely erupt from the skull's eye sockets. The flames became golden silk as it fused into the ghosts.

The ghosts began to turn golden yellow. After that, Zhao Hai felt the Underworld's Dark Mist surge into the ghosts. The strength of the ghosts was increasing at a clear rate.

"Jie Jie Jie Jie"" The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor smiled and said, "Kid, I will let you taste the feeling of getting bitten by 10 thousand ghosts. I will make sure that you suffer well before I kill you!"

After saying that, the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor directed the ghosts towards Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai lightly wrinkled his brows. The ghosts were now very powerful, they were no worse than the previous strength that Guli and the others had. In the Underworld, this strength already belonged to the top. And being attacked by ten thousand of these ghosts was truly not a fun thing.

Zhao Hai quickly cast Descent of the Holy Light. However, he didn't expect the ghosts to remain unaffected.

"Hahaha. Kid, you're underestimating my technique. If you expect your low-level spell to break my ghosts, then you are too naive! Now die!" After he said that, the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor sent the ghosts towards Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai looked at the ghosts and coldly snorted. Then he waved his Blood Ghost Staff and turned it into a sword, the same one he used to battle Addison. Zhao Hai traced his hand on the curved sword, then the sword hummed as it shone with golden yellow light. Zhao Hai wielded his sword and attacked the ghosts. Each swing hitting one ghost at a time.

However, Zhao Hai soon found something wrong. The ghosts were just immobilized as he hit them. Then after some time, they would resume their attack. And it also seems like they were becoming stronger and stronger.

"Kid, there's no use struggling. After my sacrifice, my ten thousand ghosts can absorb everything. Any attacks you have will be useless. Just accept your death."

Zhao Hai just coldly snorted as he waved his hand and sprinkled blood red water on the surroundings. This water came from the Space's Blood Pond. Inside this water was a huge amount of blood energy. Moreover, this energy was yang-type. Almost all ghosts would melt upon meeting this water.

However, Zhao Hai didn't expect that sprinkling the red water onto the ghosts would produce an effect similar to pouring gasoline on fire. Upon being splashed by the blood, the ghosts became enlarged. Every one of them burned up and grew. Their appearance became even more threatening.

"Hahahaha" The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor burst into laughter, "I have to thank you. I didn't expect that you would give them so much energy. Hahaha. Are you afraid of not dying? Just stop struggling." The attacks of the ghosts became even more violent. Zhao Hai looked at the ghosts and frowned. Ghosts were evidently from the yin-attribute, so they should be most afraid of yang-attribute.

The water in Zhao Hai's Blood Pond has been improved several times. After Zhao Hai obtained a new heart, the blood evolved into a substance of pure yang. It had a perfect compatibility with the Black Sea Pond.

The Black Sea Pond was made after absorbing the water from the Underworld's Black Sea. After entering the Space, the water evolved and became a liquid of pure yin. Because of this, the Space had achieved a balanced yin-yang condition.

Both waters from the Blood Pond and the Black Sea Pond can be used to make formidable weapons. The Yin-Yang Pond in Zhao Hai's Blood Lotus changed and turned into a half-black and half-red pond. Naturally, these two held extreme power in their respective areas.

Naturally, if Zhao Hai wanted to deal with yin-attribute ghosts, then using the Blood Pond water was the right decision. But now, the ghosts who used to be illusory have now turned into a full entity.

The present situation made Zhao Hai puzzled. While he was repelling the ghost attacks, he was also trying to find a solution for the problem.

The ghosts became more powerful once again. If they had Guli's previous strength last time, then now they had king-level strength. They were starting to annoy Zhao Hai.

Then all of a sudden, Zhao Hai noticed a gold glint on the faces of the ghosts. This was a sign of yang-attribute. How could it appear on the faces of the ghosts?

After he thought about this, Zhao Hai decided to try something. He waved his hand and sprinkled black water into the ghosts.

As the black water got in contact with the ghosts, azure smoke began to appear. The ghosts seem to be in pain.

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor gawked, then he screamed and said, "Impossible. How could you have Twilight Divine Water? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor actually defined the Space's pure yin water as Twilight Divine Water. It seems like this water was a treasure in the Cultivation Realm. Otherwise, the Ghost Emperor wouldn't have been this surprised.

Upon thinking about this, Zhao Hai secretly reminded himself to be careful. Items from the Space might be high-grade goods. If he casually took them out, then he might attract greedy people.

Zhao Hai coldly snorted and said, "Twilight Divine Water isn't that great. My Young Master has a lot of it." Then after he said that, he waved his hand once more, sprinkling even more water towards the ghosts.

At this time, the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor had already escaped far away. As someone from the Cultivation Realm, he naturally knew how strong Twilight Divine Water was. Water made out of pure yin could dissolve a lot of items. It was heavy as mercury and was extremely toxic to the soul.

In the Cultivation Realm, even if it was an ordinary item, as long as it achieved the peak of purity, then it would be deemed as a great treasure. An example of this was the Twilight Divine Water, a water of pure yin. It can break through practically anything and could be used to refine weapons. Its power was endless. In the Cultivation Realm, there was a weapon made from Twilight Divine Water known as Divine Water Flowing Cloud Skirt. It was a ribbon-type weapon that can be formed and deformed into anything. It can be as hard as ice and as soft as water. It can also erode weapons. If a person was wounded by this weapons, then they would be poisoned. Moreover, it would be hard for them to live for long. This weapon was a treasure of the Divine Water Palace. It was one of the most infamous weapons in the Cultivation Realm.

However, Twilight Divine Water was a very rare treasure. Producing it requires a very special environment. Luck was needed in order to acquire this treasure. Even the Divine Water Palace set up a special place a thousand meters underground in order to harvest it. The cavern would produce one drop every one thousand years. Each drop was enough to make one die of jealousy. If the people from Divine Water Palace became aware that Zhao Hai was using Twilight Divine Water in order to kill ghosts, then they might kill themselves on the spot.

Actually, even if the Underworld's Black Sea water enters the Cultivation Realm, it still couldn't become pure yin water. It was only after being refined by the Space and integrated with numerous poisons and yin ingredients did the Black Sea Pond slowly came into existence.

At this time, the Twilight Divine Water Pond and the Blood Pond had fused and became a Yin-Yang Pond. it was situated not far from the Hundred Spirit Tree. The pond that was divided into half-black and half-red was quite eye-catching.

After eliminating the ghosts, Zhao Hai decided to go after the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor. Currently, the Ghost Emperor only had four skeleton beasts remaining. It can be said that the skeleton beasts were more intelligent compared to the ghosts. Upon seeing the effects of the Divine Water, they immediately escaped early in order to save their lives.

Chapter 1056 – Conquer the Underworld

The golden skull that the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor turned into hovered in mid-air, the four skeleton beasts standing by his side. It might be his imagination, but Zhao Hai could see a trace of fear on the Ghost Emperor's red eyes.

Yin Wind Ghost Emperor looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Kid, what is your relationship with Divine Water Palace? If you tell me the truth, then I will give the Palace face and let you go."

Zhao Hai stared. Although his contact with the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor wasn't that long. But from the few times he spoke, and even using his incarnation as a sacrifice, Zhao Hai knew that the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor was definitely a vicious and merciless guy. He handles things like an unscrupulous fellow. For this person to be willing to give the Divine Water Palace some face and let Zhao Hai go, this signifies how terrifying the Divine Water Palace was.

However, Zhao Hai wouldn't pretend to be connected to the Divine Water Palace. If he did, then his plan for incriminating Lu Wei would fail. He didn't want to hug a huge tree and give up an opportunity to deal with a personal foe.

At the same time, Zhao Hai also knew that if he was too arrogant, then it will cause Yin Wind Ghost Emperor to be suspicious. The Ghost Emperor dreaded the Divine Water Palace. If Zhao Hai didn't care about this fact, then the Ghost Emperor would certainly get some ideas.

After some deliberation, Zhao Hai looked at the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor said, "Yin Wind Ghost Emperor, there's no need to face the Divine Water Palace some face. I'm not related to the Palace at all. It's either you or me today."

After saying that, Zhao Hai waved his Blood Ghost Staff and attacked the Ghost Emperor. The Ghost Emperor had calmed down now. He also understood that the pure yin water can completely restrain him. But after thinking about the Twilight Divine Water as well as the Divine Water Palace, Yin Wind Ghost Emperor didn't believe that Zhao Hai would really waste this pure yin water. This kind of treasure wasn't easy to acquire.

Upon thinking about this, Yin Wind Ghost Emperor began to believe that even if Zhao Hai used a yin attribute water, it might not be Twilight Divine Water. His fear began to disappear as he said, "Kid, it's time to stop bluffing. I'll let you see the power of this Emperor today." Then after he said that, he injected golden fire into the four beast skeletons. After being covered by a golden yellow light, the four beast began to throw themselves towards Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "It's useless. If I can break your ten thousand ghost formation, then I can deal with these beasts."

Zhao Hai began to move and turned his Blood Ghost Staff into four huge nets, catching the four beast skeletons together.

Yin Wind Ghost Emperor snickered and said, "Hehe. My ghosts are pura yang, the polar opposite of yin. They can burn all things….." However, the Ghost Emperor had to stop there. This was because the four beast skeletons couldn't get loose from Zhao Hai's large net. Instead, they were quickly sent towards the Space.

Zhao Hai looked at the Ghost Emperor and laughed, "Yin Wind Ghost Emperor, I told you that you shouldn't look highly upon yourself. Don't underestimate me, otherwise you wouldn't be able to know how you died." Then Zhao Hai waved his staff and sent an attack towards the Ghost Emperor.

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor opened his mouth and sent another sound attack. However, Zhao Hai's shield continued to block the attack. Zhao Hai turned his staff into a huge bell and then gave it a gentle swing, sending a sound attack towards the Ghost Emperor.

The Ghost Emperor didn't expect Zhao Hai to send a sound attack. Before he could block, the sound attack already hit him. Zhao Hai knew that these kinds of attacks could be used to deal with ghosts. After all, sound attacks belonged to the type of attack that targeted the soul. And to put it bluntly, ghosts were creatures who were completely made out of souls, this attack was very effective against them.

As for the Twilight Divine Water, Zhao Hai didn't dare to use it easily. This was because Zhao Hai was afraid of the incarnation's ability to transmit information to the main body. If Zhao Hai continues to use the Divine Water, then the Ghost Emperor would truly chase him once he reaches the Cultivation Realm.

Zhao Hai's sound attack extinguished much of the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor's fire. Then Zhao Hai followed up with another sound attack. But this time, the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor countered, issuing his own sound attack to offset Zhao Hai's.

However, Zhao Hai found a way to deal with this. He kept sending attacks towards the Ghost Emperor, forcing the latter to be on the back foot.

After fighting for one hour, Zhao Hai discovered that the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor began getting slower and slower. Moreover, his flames were slowly getting paler.

Zhao Hai knew that the Ghost Emperor was close to his end, but he still wouldn't dare to treat it lightly. The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor dared to sacrifice his soul, this meant that he was quite a ruthless person. One needed to think things carefully when faced with such a character.

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor truly doesn't have much time to live. Although sacrificing his soul made him obtain a massive burst of strength, this move also consumed the soul. Once the soul was burned up, the person would also die.

If the real Ghost Emperor was here, then he would be able to fight for a long time. However, he could only send and incarnation to the Underworld. Because of this, he couldn't withstand this consumption. At this point, his soul was akin to a completely dried out lamp.

The Yin Wind Ghost Emperor looked coldly at Zhao Hai and said, "Kid, I didn't think that you would be strong. Good, this Emperor shall accept today's defeat. However, my people will certainly find out who you are. When the time comes, I will kill you as well as your superior." Then the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor made one last sound attack before he exploded. He wanted to try blowing up the entire Dark Temple.

But at this time, Zhao Hai already returned to the Space. He looked at the Dark Temple's ruins on the monitor and then muttered, "Yin Wind Ghost Emperor, this person is truly ruthless. He still wanted to deal with me up to the very end."

Sitting nearby, Laura nodded and said, "This person is quite dangerous. He showed weakness before finally blowing himself up. He intends to injure you, that explosion wasn't normal. With all those formations amplifying the effect, even a peak God-rank would perish."

Zhao Hai nodded, then he walked towards Zhao Hai and said, "Now let's go see Megan and Lizzy." Laura nodded.

Laura and Cai'er were currently inside Zhao Hai's room, helping him with his fight against the Yin Wind Ghost Emperor. The monitor outside in the living room was handed over to Lizzy while Megan used another monitor inside her room. Because of this, if Zhao Hai wanted to know the situation, he would have to go to them himself.

They went to Megan's room first to see her situation. Megan was doing quite well. Presently, almost all of the Divine City's Undead had been dealt with. Most of these Undead were captured while the rest were killed.

Now, Megan was prepared to storm the Divine City's four satellite cities. After seeing Zhao Hai come in, Megan immediately said, "Brother Hai, are you fine? The Dark Temple just exploded, it killed a lot of our Undead. I was worried that something had happened to you."

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Rest assured, I'm fine. You continue on while I go take a look at Lizzy. They should be tidying up by now. After that we'll help you."

Megan nodded, then she continued to focus on the battle. At the same time, Zhao Hai and Laura went out of the room and went towards the living room.

In the living room, Lizzy was fully concentrated on commanding the fight. The Dark Temple's undead were frantically attacking the fortress, however their advances were drowned by cannon fire and javelins. Additionally, there were also Blood Spirit Beasts. Also, the fortress was fully equipped with troops. The Undead that attacked the fortress were quickly captured and turned into Zhao Hai's men.

Zhao Hai stood by Lizzy for some time, looking at the monitor. One has to recognize that Lizzy was very good at command. Her strategy was methodical, advancing and retreating was carefully controlled. The battle looked quite pleasant.

Presently, there weren't a lot of troops stationed in the Blood River. The fortress currently had the most priority. Lizzy wasn't planning on counter-attacking, she was just planning on keeping the enemy here. If she pushes the Dark Temple's Undead too much, then they might become too frightened and retreat. If this happens, then they would certainly cause trouble to Zhao Hai.

After spectating for some time, Zhao Hai said, "Lizzy"

Lizzy's body shook, then she turned towards Zhao Hai. Surprised, she said, "Brother Hai, are you done?"

Zhao Hai smiled faintly he nodded and said, "Finish things up here. After that, go help Megan."

Lizzy nodded, then she waved his hand, causing countless amounts of Undead to surround the Dark Temple's Army.

Altogether, the Dark Temple army had about 10 billion Undead. They haven't fought with Lizzy for a long time, so they haven't lost that much. On the other hand, Zhao Hai's Undead was close to 20 billion. It can be said that Zhao Hai had a 2 to 1 advantage. In this case, wanting to annihilate the Dark Temple Army wasn't something impossible.

Zhao Hai wasn't thinking of persuading the Dark Temple's Undead to surrender. These Undead weren't controlled by a contract, instead they were convinced by faith.

Zhao Hai was very clear about this point, therefore, instead of persuading, he prompted to defeat them by pure military force. In any case, he wasn't afraid of the other party's strength.

Also, Zhao Hai wasn't worried that the Dark Temple's Undead would cause wind and waves. Even if they escaped from this place, they still wouldn't be able to do anything since the Temple had already been destroyed. Zhao Hai believed that news of this would certainly be a huge blow.

An army gathered in the name of faith would directly be destroyed once their subject of worship disappears. Because of this, Zhao Hai didn't plan to deal with the Undead on the side of the river. The reason he surrounded the army was because he wanted to use them to improve the Space's strength.

Sure enough, after being surrounded, the Dark Temple's undead began to feel flustered. At this moment, Lizzy's attack also began. As Lizzy commanded the Undead, she made sure that those at the frontlines were those who had become adept in army formations. Just like a sharp knife, they sliced through the Dark Temple's army. The Undead who were in formation didn't falter and just continued to advance.

The Dark Temple's army were originally flustered. Now that they had met this attack, they began to disperse in all directions.

However, Lizzy wasn't intending to pursue the escaping Undead. Instead, she focused on capturing the Undead and sending them to the Space. And then, after they had surrendered, they were released back into the Underworld.

The battle was now basically over, there was no need for Lizzy to issue further commands. At this time, Meg arrived carrying a teapot. The teapot was filled with leaves from the Hundred Spirit Tree as well as some medicinal herbs. Meg placed the teapot on the table and then smiled at Zhao Hai, "Young Master, Sisters, have some tea and take a rest."

Lizzy chuckled as she rubbed Meg's face, "Our little Meg is truly the best. You always know I like."

Meg's face turned red under Lizzy's teasing, "Sister Lizzy, if you tease me again, I will never bring you delicious snacks."

Lizzy paused for a moment before she chuckled, "Even if you don't bring me snacks, you would still give some to Brother Hai. I will eat with him then."

Zhao Hai looked at the two bickering and couldn't help but smile. He liked this atmosphere. Everyone sat together, drinking tea, playing jokes on each other, it feels much like a family.

There was no need to look at the monitor since the war was basically done. Zhao Hai can also affirm that the Underworld was now his.
