"Big brother, something seems off."

In a large residence within Yu Capital City, Elder Mayfly sat in the courtyard, savoring tea and admiring the moonlight, with several plates of pastries on the table looking quite comfortable.

Opposite him, Du Wuhen was holding a token from the Circle of Immortal Friends, trying to see if he could flirt with any female cultivators also in Yu Capital City.

The two brothers had weathered the storm of the house-buying fiasco, reclaimed their residence, and had finally been living a few days of peace in Yu Capital City.

Elder Mayfly enjoyed roaming the morning market early on, while Du Wuhen liked flirting with female cultivators; at noon, Elder Mayfly liked to stroll with his birds and tend to his flowers, as Du Wuhen amused himself with female cultivators; in the evening, while Elder Mayfly enjoyed a river cruise or listening to music, Du Wuhen persisted in flirting with female cultivators.

The brothers were wealthy and idle, simply relishing life.

Hearing Elder Mayfly’s words now, Du Wuhen finally looked up, "Second brother, what’s wrong?"

Elder Mayfly gazed into the night sky.

Where there had been a full moon, now only a faint outer arc remained. It appeared as if obscured by clouds, but Elder Mayfly, at his level of cultivation, could clearly tell those were no clouds at all.

Rather, it was a portal that had opened.

"The Yin and Yang realms are intersecting, it must be the doing of the Human World’s Xuan Ming Daoist Master." Elder Mayfly said, "Only his power can open this gate. Big brother, Yu Capital City is about to descend into chaos."

"Huh?" Du Wuhen looked skeptical, "This is Yu Capital City. Even the Demon Gods didn’t get their way here, and the defensive forces of the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands might not even be as tight as right here. Second brother, you..."

Whoosh boom—

Before he finished speaking, countless ghostly figures surged out of the portal, including a gigantic ghoul with a green face and fierce teeth which plummeted from the sky and crashed into the courtyard!

"Woah—" Du Wuhen nearly got flipped over by the blast of air, but he rolled nimbly, landing on the ground, "They really dared to come."

"It harbors no ill intent." Elder Mayfly raised his hand, preventing Du Wuhen’s counterattack, and instead released a trace of Mayfly Seeds onto the ghost, swiftly capturing its mind.

"Whence do you come, and why descend upon the Mortal Realm?" he asked aloud.

"Supreme Evil Ksitigarbha... Netherworld... massive slaughter..." The ghost struggled to speak the language of the Human Clan, responding to Elder Mayfly’s question.

Although its words were choppy, the two brothers quickly understood its meaning.

The emergence of the Supreme Evil Ksitigarbha, a spree of killings in the Netherworld! The ghosts dared not stay, and as the Yin and Yang portal opened at just the right time, they fled pell-mell to this side.

While the environment of the Yang world might not suit ghosts for a prolonged stay, it was night, and at least they could survive. If they stayed in the Yin world, their spirits would likely be scattered to the winds.

"Supreme Evil Ksitigarbha?" Du Wuhen exclaimed shockingly, "Isn’t that the Divine Artifact of the Underworld King Sect? Does it really contain a Primordial Spirit sealed in the Underworld?!"

"Such terrifying spiritual power."

Elder Mayfly looked up at the sky where the portal remained, with an unending stream of ghosts still pouring through, seemingly without end. Yet, that wasn’t the most terrifying part. The horror was the spiritual power behind it all, strong enough that even the gate between the two realms couldn’t contain it.

The emergence of the Evil Ksitigarbha shook the entire Netherworld. Now, with that spiritual power reaching the Mortal Realm, although it had lost the raw edge of evil it initially bore, those with profound cultivation could still sense it.

"Ahh—"

The screaming was momentary yet incessant, resounding through Yu Capital City. For the first time, the capital of the Nine States faced such a magnitude of onslaught. The arriving ghosts numbered in the tens of thousands!

Perhaps their original intent was merely to flee for their lives, but once they descended here, how could it not cause a city-wide panic? The incompatibility of humans and ghosts meant that a great battle was inevitable, and bloodshed and death immediately enveloped Yu Capital City.

It can only be said that the one who opened the portal here must have intended to use the ghosts to attack the city, and their heart must be full of treachery.

Boom boom boom—

Another wave of ghosts surged down, toppling all the surrounding residences. The tragic state outside was exposed as the people of Yu Capital City fled in the streets, only to be overwhelmed by fierce ghosts, their screams coming in swathes.

Du Wuhen’s complexion darkened—even though it was already dark, it became even darker as he sighed, "We’ve only had a few days of good times, huh? This is a newly purchased house!"

...

When Venerable Wanfa commanded Lin Poyun to open the gateway to the Yin world, even the Underworld King Sect Master who had committed all kinds of evil deeds was shocked.

Daoist Master Xuanming indeed possessed this ability, or rather, this was Daoist Master Xuanming’s most powerful ability, to open the gateways between the Yin and Yang realms and connect the two worlds. However, previous generations of Daoist Masters of Xuan Ming never dared to even consider it.

Firstly, it was of little significance, for the portal would be quickly sealed again, unnecessarily attracting hatred. Moreover, without a great upheaval, it wouldn’t cause much harm to the Yangjian.

But now the situation was different.

The Supreme Evil Ksitigarbha was rampaging in the Yin world, with countless lost spirits scattering around like headless flies, and even the Ten Halls Ghost King couldn’t round them up again. With the portal now open and the Yangjian in the dead of night, the ghosts would definitely surge through.

And with this portal opening in the skies above Yu Capital City, in an instant, it could plunge the Nine States Capital City into an ocean swarmed with countless Yin spirits.

With just one passage, it was impossible to know how many would die. Venerable Wanfa had obviously planned ahead, and his ruthlessness impressed even Lin Poyun.

Having done evil deeds all his life, Lin Poyun realized he might not measure up to this single act. Venerable Wanfa, who had played the saint all his life, had this hidden within him all along.

After the first wave of ghosts surged out, the figures of Venerable Wanfa, Lin Poyun, and Evil Ksitigarbha also swept out of the portal. However, they did not head to Yu Capital City but instead, amidst howling winds, arrived at another location.

The sealing site of Ksitigarbha’s True Body.

This site was located in a nameless mountain range in Central State, under a seemingly ordinary peak, where the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands had jointly placed multi-layered seals, suppressing the Divine Artifact of the Underworld King Sect from the Ten Thousand Treasures Record, Ksitigarbha’s True Body.

As Venerable Wanfa passed by Yu Capital City, his originally feeble aura visibly grew stronger, and by the time they reached their destination, he had largely recovered to normal.

Seeing his sudden accelerated recovery, Lin Poyun seemed to realize something, glanced at the distant city, and said, "You can absorb the life force that spills out when living beings die violently?"

Venerable Wanfa smiled and, without concealing the truth, directly said, "The essence of longevity is plundering. The great path sustains my long life, but where does the spiritual power of the great path come from?"

"So the more living beings that die violently in the world, the longer the supply of lifespan your Longevity Path provides to you. You truly are the one who fears not the chaos of the world," Lin Poyun lamented how deeply this old manipulator had hidden his true nature, then suddenly wondered, "Then, what about Mars over these years..."

"Heh heh." Venerable Wanfa laughed but did not speak, turning his head and pointing at the mountain peak ahead, he said, "Ksitigarbha Venerable, this is where your physical body has been suppressed."

Without needing his explanation, Evil Ksitigarbha, manipulating the Reincarnation King’s body, had already closed his eyes, feeling his physical body that he had been separated from for tens of thousands of years.

"Huff..." Evil Ksitigarbha let out a long breath and suddenly opened his eyes fiercely, roaring, "Return—"

Boom boom boom—the mountain range shook, the earth trembled, the starry sky hid away, and the moonlight turned dim.

The Supreme Evil returns!

At that moment, all the creatures between heaven and earth awakened from their dreams!
