320: Chapter 319: 500 Years of Development (Fourth Update) 320: Chapter 319: 500 Years of Development (Fourth Update) Five hundred years ago,

Ye Xuan had ascended to immortality amidst the gaze of thousands, then vanished from the sight of people, leaving no one to know his whereabouts.

Everyone close to him guessed that Ye Xuan had surely risen to the Immortal Realm.

A month after Ye Xuan’s disappearance, the spiritual energy between Heaven and Earth began to recover.

The once useless Immortal Cultivation Methods became treasures in people’s eyes, making it unnecessary to consume life essence for cultivation, and orthodox Cultivators emerged within a century.

In the Netherworld, among the elite of the world, Cultivators emerged like carps crossing the river, ushering in batches of exceptional talents in the era of spiritual energy resurgence.

Huang Fatty, designated by Ye Xuan himself, was the Lord of the Netherworld.

In the days shortly after Ye Xuan’s departure, due to the lingering prestige of Ye Xuan, the Netherworld was united, following Huang Fatty’s commands.

Although in their hearts they did not acknowledge Huang Fatty, they accepted him as the Lord of the Netherworld.

But human desires are endless!

Over a century, outstanding talents emerged from all over the globe, their cultivation advancing rapidly with the endless supply of spiritual energy around them.

The members of the Netherworld were not to be outdone.

With the Cultivation Method passed down by Ye Xuan, their cultivation grew day by day, making them arguably the strongest power globally.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there is conflict—an eternal truth.

No one wants to be subservient to others.

Driven by desire for power, the Netherworld gradually became disharmonious, subtly dividing into several factions.

Immortal Wushuang, the most powerful Cultivator in the Netherworld, was revered by many members, but he was merely a Vice Mansion Master.

Yuanxu Monk, when the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth had been revived, shone brilliantly with the Buddha Demon Technique.

In just decades, he reached the level of Immortal Wushuang, gained a large following within the Netherworld, and many talented individuals became his disciples and joined the Netherworld.

Three team leaders of the Netherworld, Viper, Merciless, and Mantou, once stood equal to Huang Fatty as the top four team leaders.

However, after the revival of the spiritual energy, the cultivation of these three surged, although not to the extent of Immortal Wushuang and Yuanxu Monk, they left Huang Fatty behind.

With the growth in cultivation came boundless ambition.

Even though Huang Fatty was personally appointed by Ye Xuan, as time passed, when the disciples of Immortal Wushuang surpassed Huang Fatty in cultivation, the entire Netherworld gradually became divided.

Although Ye Xuan had passed the Heavenly Demon Great Method to Huang Fatty and bestowed upon him the Bloodthirsty Demon Sword before leaving the Human World, Huang Fatty’s mediocre talent meant that no matter how diligently he cultivated, he remained inferior to others.

Time is merciless and often makes people forget things.

When, a hundred years later, Ye Xuan still hadn’t appeared, the past prestige also gradually faded in the Netherworld.

Consequently, there was the suppressed restlessness of a century.

Secretly defying orders and disobeying commands, even though Huang Fatty was unfathomable and ruthless, his cultivation was evident, which gradually led to his being underestimated by the people of the Netherworld.

The vast Netherworld gradually divided, though some external factors played a part, more of it was due to internal discord.

The descendants of Immortal Wushuang and Yuanxu were like water and fire, the three team leaders acting autonomously, clashing countless times in secret, and even when Huang Fatty tried to intervene, he was utterly ineffective.

Members of the Netherworld, were they not all fierce and wicked beings?

Wushuang, once the top expert of the East.

Yuanxu Monk, the founder of the Little Thunder Temple.

The three group leaders, all of whom were utterly evil.

Members of the Netherworld, none of them were virtuous; they could be described as ruthless.

Without Ye Xuan’s suppression, the entire Netherworld was no longer solid like before, and an unimaginable civil war finally began.

Overnight, the Netherworld completely withered; the dead were dead, the injured were injured, until everyone gathered at the Netherworld headquarters and directly declared to Huang Panger that they were no longer people of the Netherworld.

Huang Panger knew he did not possess Ye Xuan’s authority nor could he suppress these people, but the Netherworld was founded by Ye Xuan; if it disbanded in his hands, how could he face Ye Xuan?

That day, Huang Panger seemed to have aged decades.

He told Wushuang and others that he was willing to hand over the domain of the Netherworld and even pass on the Heavenly Demon Great Method to everyone, as long as he hoped they would stay in the Netherworld.

Sadly, human ambition has no limits, and how could the broken Netherworld retain them?

Also, on that day, three terrifying cultivators appeared at the Netherworld headquarters.

The origins of these three people were unknown, but their cultivation was mysteriously profound.

The three of them, two men and one woman, were known as the Vice Alliance Hierarchs of the Cultivation Alliance, and Wushuang and others also joined the Cultivation Alliance until that moment when Huang Panger realized.

It turned out that unknown to him, Wushuang and others had already joined the Cultivation Alliance a long time ago, and the disintegration of the Netherworld was closely related to this alliance.

The Netherworld ceased to exist overnight, and the Cultivation Alliance even demanded Huang Panger to hand over the Heavenly Demon Great Method and the Bloodthirsty Demon Sword and to submit to the Cultivation Alliance.

But how could Huang Panger agree?

Naturally, an unimaginable battle occurred.

Former comrades-in-arms, turned into enemies in the blink of an eye, whether it was Wushuang or Yuanxu Monk, when these people personally attacked him, it forced him to use the three strains of blood energy bestowed by Ye Xuan.

In that battle, Wushuang and others were severely injured, and the three Vice Alliance Hierarchs of the Cultivation Alliance fled in panic, but what followed was the endless pursuit of Huang Panger.

After hundreds of years, the three strains of blood energy given by Ye Xuan were all used up, and he could only hide and seek shelter, hoping that one day Ye Xuan would return to the Human World.

Of course, not every Netherworld member was a traitor.

In this battle, Beichen, with his unparalleled cultivation, and Death God’s personal guards fought side by side, but they also ended up with unknown fates, dead or alive.

And some veteran members of the Netherworld, facing the fragmented Netherworld, had long been disheartened and left for the ends of the earth, not wanting to take part in these disputes.

They either hid in the deep mountains or disappeared among the common people; the name Netherworld no longer existed in this world.

But this was not the end.

Overnight, the Ye Family in the Capital City was wiped out, Ye Ping and his wife died in battle at home, and Ye Xuan’s mother also disappeared in the battle.

All descendants of the Ye Family were pursued by a mysterious force, hiding miserably over the centuries, and Huang Panger, to ensure the Ye Family would not die out, moved from place to place hoping to preserve the bloodline of the Ye Family.

For five hundred years, whether the Ye Family or the Netherworld, both have already disappeared in the long river of history, and all records of Ye Xuan’s existence have been erased by the Cultivation Alliance.

The current Human World is ruled by the Cultivation Alliance, and the countries of the world long ceased to exist; the Cultivation Alliance is the supreme sovereign of the Human World, and people do not even know that five hundred years ago, a Godlike Divine King had appeared in this world.

Perhaps, only the cultivators alive from that era still remember Ye Xuan’s existence.
