North of the Void Ocean.
A black halo traveled speedily from afar before diving straight into the water and swimming downward.
Invading Beiqi cost the Sea King everything. He knew he could no longer regain his position before the incident with his own power.
Such deep vengeance drove the Sea King crazy, so he came up with a maniacal idea. This was also the only way he would be able to earn his revenge.
The death halo kept sinking below the water. 5,000 leagues… 10,000 leagues… 20,000 leagues…
Suddenly, a huge sculpture appeared before his eyes.
Seeing the arrival of the death halo, the huge sculpture turned slowly and looked at the Sea King.
Whoosh!
A current flowed and a gigantic hand suddenly grabbed the Sea King.
“Guardian, I am Mu Hai of the Mu Te Sea Nation!” the Sea King’s thoughts condensed into a consciousness, threading straight into the body of the Spirit of Mu Te.
This time, the huge sculpture did not grab him. Instead, it lowered its arm slowly and allowed the Sea King to approach it.
After approaching the Spirit of Mu Te, the Sea King came out from the halo. He scratched his arm to let a few drops of blue blood drip onto the Spirit of Mu Te, which quickly seeped into the sculpture.
Moments later, the voice of the Spirit of Mu Te rang in the Sea King’s head.
“Member of the Mu Te royal family, state your business!”
“I want to release the Death Clan and make them invade the Void Ocean!”
“No, sealing this place was an order from the clan’s king, Mu Zhiguang. I reject your order!” the Spirit of Mu Te’s voice echoed in his head with a buzz.
“Mu Zhiguang is dead. The only way I can take revenge on his passing is to release the Death Clan. I am the only one left in the Mu Te Sea Nation. I am your king now!” the Sea King roared wildly.
“I do not believe you!” the Spirit of Mu Te was so shocked that his body shivered.
The Sea King’s face darkened. He immediately delivered Mu Zhiguang’s last words to the Spirit of Mu Te.
After a while the Spirit of Mu Te spoke, “He hoped that you would not take revenge but instead survive as the last member of the clan.”
“I’d rather die than live on my own in shame. I’ve made up my mind!” the Sea King said in all seriousness.
“The last King of the Mu Te Sea Nation, I obey your order!”
The Spirit of Mu Te did not say anything else this time. He was created by the Mu Te Clan, so he would follow the orders of the clan’s king. Since the Sea King was the only one left in the clan, the Sea King was their last king.
The huge sculpture raised its right leg, revealing a Hexagram Formation, which had deafening sounds emanating out of it as if there were ghosts crying out.
Tentacles reached into the seal and began to grow crookedly.
“Do you need me to open the seal?”
“Wait!” the Sea King said while sweeping toward the seal.
Instantly, black tentacles circled around the Sea King in a craze.
Thud!
The Spirit of Mu Te stomped his foot and all the illusory tentacles were torn by an invisible force.
When the Sea King’s feet touched the seal, innumerable sounds rang in his head.
Cunning jeers, husky screams, sad sobs…
“Mu Zhiguang… die… die… die, Mu Zhiguang…”
The Sea King hummed coldly, chasing away all the sounds in his head. He then looked at the Hexagram Seal below him and said, “Do you wish to come out? Ruler of Death!”
When the Sea King’s voice died down, all the tentacles which were stretching outward disappeared and a skull face slowly formed at the area around the seal.
“Mu Zhiguang… die!”
“I am not Mu Zhiguang. I was just asking if you want to come out or not. If you don’t, I think Mu Zhiguang will keep you guys locked down here for eternity!”
When talking to this demon in the Valley of Death, the Sea King would naturally not say that Mu Zhiguang was dead, or else, it would send the Death Clan into an uproar and they would attack the seal.
Without Mu Zhiguang, the Spirit of Mu Te would not be able to oppress the sudden outburst of the Death Clan once the seal bursts, and the Sea King was well aware of this.
“Who are you… can you let us… out?” beneath the seal, the voices changed abruptly from crying, to anger, then to wailing.
“I can let you out, but what can you give me in return?”
“I can grant you death… let you die… let you embrace the darkness…” piercing laughter came from below, turning the Sea King’s complexion ghastly pale.
“Looks like you never want to leave this place!” the Sea King snorted.
“What do you want… you seem to want the power of death… I felt that!”
“That’s right. Let me have the power of death. Let me rule your Army of Death! I’ll lead them to kill, to swallow every life!”
“It’s a good condition… I like it very much… but are you brave enough to do it?”
At the end of the Ruler of Death’s sentence, an elixir surrounded by an aura of death slowly appeared above the seal.
“Would you dare? Hehehe… you might really die after drinking this!”
The Sea King looked at the elixir and reached out to take it.
The aura of death surrounded his hand and his arm turned black in seconds. The power of death kept soaking into his body, destroying his bodily functions.
“If this can grant me the strength I want, I’ll let all of you out!” after saying this, the Sea King swallowed the elixir with determination.
“Ah!”
In an instant, the aura of death spread through his whole body. His eyes gradually turned black like Mu Zhiguang’s. Black currents were flowing in and out of his body and the Sea King began to scream in agony.
“Hahaha… embrace your death… enjoy the last moments of your life…” the voice coming out from below began to laugh madly when it saw the Sea King crying out in pain.
…
After the battle, the players learned how really weak they were.
When faced with such disastrous powers, even if they were huge in number and possessed the ability to respawn, they would never be able to balance their forces with true power.
However, this battle also brought princely rewards to the players.
They gained a lot of experience points and soul coins from the massacre.
After the battle, the players wasted a boatload of soul coins to upgrade their abilities, change accessories, and repair their warships. Once again, the strength of the players increased tremendously.
Meanwhile, the person who gained the most was Lu Wu. He could not stop smiling when his number of soul coins exceeded 500,000.
Even the danger of the hidden Beiqi forces was taken off of his mind.
After knowing that the white-haired old man was his subordinate, he had no worries at all. The only thing that bothered him to the extent of making him slap the floor every time he thought about it, was about how he was originally a female.
After the battle, Lu Wu used some soul coins and Yin energy to repair the border of the Mansion of the Dead.
After all, this was a place where players must pass by when heading to the Liuli Coast. Now that this area had been severely destroyed by the battle between Lie Shan and Mu Zhiguang, the players might fall into some deep holes while travelling by foot.
Lu Wu did not shed any tears over this expense. He paid without hesitation!
At the same time, there was one important task waiting for Lu Wu to settle.
When he completed most of his miscellaneous work, he condensed his incarnation in the Mansion of the Dead and walked toward Tong Gua’s Forge.
…
Right now, in Tong Gua’s Forge.
Tong Gua, Xiao Tian, the Rock Ghost King who was in his plant form, and the Hydra King who was in the form of a baby snake, looked at each other but nobody talked.
“Tong Gua, I didn’t know you’ve become so weak!” the Rock Ghost King spoke, breaking the awkward silence.
“I say, you look familiar in this state!” Tong Gua did not answer him, instead he looked at the current form of the Rock Ghost King and sank into deep thought.
“Cough…” the Rock Ghost King couldn’t help but cough, his face uneasy.
When he snuck into the Mansion of the Dead, he thought Tong Gua was still that terrifying Ghost King Peak Elite, which was why this awkward scenario played out.
“By the way, Tong Gua, since we’ve already decided to submit to him, why won’t he come out and meet us?” the Hydra King asked curiously.
“Be patient, he’s the kind of person who will appear at any time. As long as we wait, it’ll be fine. However, you must be mentally prepared. Submitting is not as simple as it sounds,” Tong Gua couldn’t help warning them.
“Do we have to do the Soul Oath to prove our loyalty? When His Majesty was here, I had to do it. Since it’s to prove our loyalty, to prevent betrayal, I think it’s normal to do this,” the Rock Ghost King frowned.
“Then you’re too naive! After you board this Vibranium Pirate Ship, they will weld the door shut so you can’t leave even if you die,” Xiao Tian mentioned quietly from beside.
Although when he said this, Xiao Tian was not even sure what vibranium was, just that it was something incredible based on what the players said.
Hearing this, the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King were both dumbfounded.
Just then, a silhouette appeared in the house. His dark figure was clouded by fog, making his appearance hardly visible.
“Rock Ghost King and Hydra King, I’m here!”
Seeing that somebody was here, they jumped out of their skin. After some pondering, they faced Lu Wu, bowed and yelled, “Greetings, King of Beiqi!”
“Actually, having you guys submit your loyalty to me cost me a lot of resources. But it’s okay, since I can also enlarge my force’s territory!” as he spoke, Lu Wu shifted his thoughts, and the words regarding their submission of loyalty to the artifact were sent directly to their minds.
“Read it. Then when you’re done, we will be family!” Lu Wu said with a smile.
“Your Majesty, why are the words from this Soul Oath different from the original one?” the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King were puzzled as they looked up.
“Don’t ask too many questions, just read it. What are you afraid of? Can’t you see I read it, too!” Tong Gua coaxed them, but deep down, he was very glad.
After all, he was pulling two more people down with him, so he felt really good.
After the duo exchanged looks, they finally read the words that appeared in their minds.
Meanwhile, the artifact also sensed their souls and sucked them into the channel after they finished reading the Soul Oath which pledged their undying loyalty.
Bei Li, who was already waiting in the artifact, had her mask and white coat on, and was totally prepared for the new brainwashing surgery.
After about an hour, the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King were sent out of the Channel, their faces blank.
“What is this!? Was this the secret weapon Lu Wu made back then?” they both seemed terrified after coming back to their senses.
Especially in the Artifact Channel when they saw the mysterious Bei Li who kept following the previous King of Beiqi, it was so unbelievable to them.
“The information is already in your heads,” Lu Wu spoke again.
Once they heard this, they sank into their thoughts immediately.
Rows and rows of information about the artifact and players appeared, shocking the ever so knowledgeable duo.
“See, I told you, you can’t leave this Vibranium Pirate Ship. Now you can’t even die!” Xiao Tian laughed at them from beside.
“Your Majesty, I would like to know your plans!” the Rock Ghost King asked with a straight face.
“To make an army capable of fighting any force… including the world of immortals!”
Although Lu Wu had said that with a stable tone, it still greatly surprised the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King, since they knew how deadly were the forces of the world of immortals.
“Don’t be scared, I can do this with the help of the artifact!”
Regarding this point, both of them acknowledged it after understanding the functions of the artifact.
“Now I know why these secret weapons… no, these players, kept annoying my North Rocks region. It was their way to get stronger!”
The Hydra King nodded, too.
“Getting stronger by snatching things, huh? After being digitized by the artifact, their strengths will be infinite, it is indeed the best way of progress!”
“Your Majesty, I know potion making. Shall I provide it to the players and develop this into their character classes?”
Just as Xiao Tian said, since they had already boarded this ship and had made up their mind to follow Lu Wu, he made the initiative to give suggestions in order to assist in the players’ growth.
“Go back and keep being the Ghost Kings. The players’ strength still has room for improvement, and I’m preparing a new chapter. About the players’ invasion, please ignore them. When it’s time, I will announce your participation to the players!”
The Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King pulled their faces after listening to this.
They thought after joining this team, they could finally rest, but it turns out they have to serve the players and help them get stronger.
“Yes!”
At last, the duo bowed and agreed.
Seeing that they had agreed, Lu Wu nodded in contentment.
“When the timing is right, send your trusted subordinates here, I’ll digitize them, too. The other subordinates who are not involved can keep being the source for the players’ growth.”
Delight flashed on their faces, because they were worried about this, too. Since their subordinates had followed them for years, if they could only assist the growth of the players, it was rather unfair. Little did they know, before they voiced it out, Lu Wu had already mentioned it.
“Yes!” they bowed again.
“Very good!” after saying that, Lu Wu’s figure disappeared.
After Lu Wu left, the four people fell into a baffled silence.
“Don’t complain. Once the players get stronger, you’ll benefit from it, too. Since we’re all one force now, don’t stress too much about those insignificant subordinates. Since you guys are not emotionally connected to each other, don’t be too bothered by it!” seeing as Lu Wu had left, Tong Gua said from beside.
“Oh right, now you know that the artifact can extract soul power and convert them into soul coins. This is also the only currency shared by us, other NPCs, and the players. The game shop, too, is available for us. We actually have loads of benefits…” while saying this, Tong Gua’s eyes glimmered slyly. Then, he walked to the Rock Ghost King’s side and hooked his arm around his neck.
“Brother, since we’re family now, I… am lacking some funds and I need some assets. I see your North Rocks are filled with spiritual materials. How about you cut down some trees and sell them to the game shop, then lend your brother some money to spend?”
The Rock Ghost King’s face changed upon hearing this.
“I don’t even have soul coins, and yet you want me to lend some to you? No way!”
“Hey, you’re so cruel. Since you have the soul coin function now, I’m certain that you’ll secretly cut down some trees for yourself. You think I don’t know? What will happen if you lend me some soul coins? I work like a bull all day to get a few hundred soul coins a day, can’t you just pity me?” Tong Gua yelled angrily.
Looking at the messy wine bottles on the floor, the Rock Ghost King and the Hydra King looked at each other before rushing away from the scene.
Right now, they didn’t have any idea of cutting down trees and selling them. To them, soul coins were the divine items that could help them cultivate the Ghost King Intermediate Realm.
They also had a sudden thought that this Vibranium Pirate Ship was actually quite decent.
North of the Void Ocean.
A black halo traveled speedily from afar before diving straight into the water and swimming downward.
Invading Beiqi cost the Sea King everything. He knew he could no longer regain his position before the incident with his own power.
