Chapter 506: Chapter 119 Five Ghost Emperors_1

The man who had been knocked unconscious suddenly sat up, clutching his groin with eyes nearly bulging out of his sockets. His mouth was wide open as he let out a blood-curdling scream that seemed to tear through the sky...

Qin Shou quickly snatched the wheel from Yishui’s hand and, with a swift motion, clank!

The man’s eyes rolled back again as he passed out...

"Bunny, what do we do now?" Yishui asked.

Qin Shou shook his head and said, "What else can we do? This is a treasure. Drag it back, and I’ll feel... cough, cough... I’ll study it slowly."

As he said this, Qin Shou suddenly paused and asked, "Yishui, this guy is just average in strength, about the level of an Earthly Immortal. If he were to attack you, do you think he could kill you?"

Yishui was about to boast with a smile, but Qin Shou quickly said, "Don’t brag! Speak the truth, the whole truth!"

Yishui immediately frowned and said sulkily, "Well, it’s not too bad. Although I’d be scared, I have the Five Past Cycles, and it would protect me."

Qin Shou said, "So, you mean he can’t do anything to you?"

Yishui nodded confidently and then added, "But he’s really scary, ah..."

Qin Shou narrowed his eyes, pondering to himself: If this man can’t kill Yishui, why would they send him? Was he just meant to frighten Yishui? Or...

Qin Shou suddenly remembered something and shouted, "Go, to the Zhuanlun Hall!"

Qin Shou threw the Token, activating the Teleportation Array, and then...

Boom!

A thunderous explosion rang out, and Qin Shou felt as if the heavens and earth were shattering beneath his feet, the ground bursting apart!

The entire hall blew up in an instant!

Yishui reacted swiftly, waving his hand as the Five Past Cycles flew out, transforming into five light wheels to block the blast, shielding them both as they burst out of the hall in an instant!

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Qin Shou coughed violently, not from injury, but from the choking dust. He struggled to look up, only to see the mountain that housed the Teleportation Array connected to the Yama Kings of Ten Halls exploding segment by segment! The huge mountain peak was beginning to collapse...

Seeing this, Qin Shou heaved a sigh and said, "Just as I thought... that guy was only here to delay Yishui. Damn, where’s that guy?!"

Qin Shou suddenly remembered that his ’meat chicken’ didn’t seem to have been brought along! He scanned the surroundings and, as expected, the unfortunate fellow with his face and backside aligned in the same direction had not been brought out. With the blast that strong, and since he was already unconscious, the chances were he wouldn’t survive.

Just then, a furious shout resounded: "What demon dares cause havoc in the Netherworld?"

Next, a gate appeared in the sky, swinging open. It was the Ghost Gate that Qin Shou was familiar with! As Ghost Gate opened, a man with a crimson face strode out. His eyes were like copper bells, and with a roar, he blew a gust of wind, extinguishing all the fire on the mountain in one breath!

However, by now, the mountain had already collapsed considerably, with half of the peak blown away. Unless time could be reversed, no one could save those Teleportation Arrays now.

Seeing this person, Yishui cheered, "It’s the Eastern Ghost Emperor, Cai Yulei! He’s in charge of Taozhi Mountain and the Ghost Gate, a bona fide Golden Immortal!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou inhaled sharply. Although he had seen Great Golden Immortals and even mightier beings, this was the first time he had witnessed a Golden Immortal in action.

Cai Yulei glanced over and immediately saw Yishui. With a wave of his hand, Qin Shou only felt the world shifting, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already face to face with Cai Yulei.

Qin Shou hurriedly paid his respects, "Daynight Wandering God Qin Shou greets the Eastern Ghost Emperor."

Cai Yulei looked at Qin Shou with slight surprise and said, "There’s actually a Heavenly God in the Netherworld?"

Yishui quickly said, "My friend."

Qin Shou could tell that Cai Yulei wasn’t truly surprised, but rather suspicious of Qin Shou’s identity. However, Yishui’s words only made Cai Yulei — even more suspicious!

Qin Shou inwardly uttered a wry smile, wondering if he really looked like a swindler uncle who tricked little girls.

Qin Shou quickly took out the spiritual token of the Daynight Wandering God and threw it to the Eastern Ghost Emperor. After examining it, the Eastern Ghost Emperor nodded slightly, handed it back to Qin Shou, and said, "Fellow Daoist, please forgive my caution, recently the Netherworld has been frequently attacked, and I have to be more vigilant."

Qin Shou was stunned and asked, "Frequently attacked? How is that possible?"

The Eastern Ghost Emperor sighed and said, "Come, sit at Taozhi Mountain, and let’s talk slowly."

Qin Shou turned to look at the Teleportation Array, which was nearly destroyed, and asked, "That..."

The Eastern Ghost Emperor shook his head and said, "It’s fine, it’s just a few Teleportation Arrays."

Qin Shou said, "I’m worried about those grand halls..."

The Eastern Ghost Emperor laughed heartily and responded, "You don’t need to worry about that. Those grand halls are not something these petty thieves can destroy. If they really wanted to destroy the grand halls, what use would destroying a mere Teleportation Array be? Even if we have to walk there, it’s not far."

After saying this, the Eastern Ghost Emperor made an inviting gesture.

Hearing the Eastern Ghost Emperor say so, Qin Shou also relaxed. Since the people of the Netherworld weren’t worried, he didn’t need to concern himself unnecessarily.

As he once again stepped through the Ghost Gate, he realized this Ghost Gate was different from the others—it was merely a door that traversed space. With one step, the scene brightened before Qin Shou’s eyes!

Before him lay a peach grove!

There was no sun in the Netherworld, but the plants there could glow. The peach blossoms emitted a faint pink halo, illuminating the mountain beautifully. Should a gust of wind blow, the petals would dance with the wind, like a sky full of fireflies... Qin Shou surmised that if he ever had the chance to invite a girl from Earth here for a honeymoon or a romantic confession, there would likely be no woman he couldn’t win over.

Qin Shou glanced at Yishui beside him, who seemed either to have seen enough or was utterly carefree, as she made a face and said dismissively, "It’s like a fool’s errand to me, feelin’ nothin’, won’t be swayed by these flowers and grasses!"

Qin Shou rubbed his temples and casually conjured a plush bear for Yishui, who was about to refuse but then her eyes suddenly shone with stars, and she hugged the toy tightly, exclaiming, "What a scoundrel! I’ve been missing you so much!"

After saying this, the girl, with a look of noble righteousness, took her plush bear to play elsewhere.

Qin Shou wasn’t surprised in the least by this scene; he knew that this girl’s only strength was her sassy mouth.

"I’m on the eighth cycle of Zhuanlun now... Ah..." The Eastern Ghost Emperor Cai Yulei suddenly let out a long sigh.

Curious, Qin Shou asked, "Ghost Emperor, why such a long sigh? Isn’t one stronger with each cycle of reincarnation?"

Cai Yulei shook his head and said, "Everything in the world that makes one stronger requires a price. There is no such thing as gaining strength without giving something in return. Moreover, every cultivation technique has its limits; what’s referred to as limitless is just not having encountered the limit yet. The Undying Reincarnation of Zhuanlun claims ’one death breaks the cocoon, nine deaths transform into a butterfly’. But what happens after becoming a butterfly?"
