The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!-Chapter 793: The Wealth of the Netherworld

The enormous fox spoke slowly, analyzing the situation before it suddenly turned around and left towards the depths of the mist.

"Wait for me here, I will return shortly..."

After saying this, the enormous fox disappeared into the mist, leaving Li Muyang alone at the entrance to the secret realm.

Looking at the mysterious and eerie Netherworld Secret Realm before him, Li Muyang did not dare to wander off impulsively.

Who knows what kind of dangers are hidden in this secret realm?

He stood still and waited patiently, but this time it took a total of six two-hour periods.

The Ghost Moon Fox said it would return shortly, but after playing in the game for a little over six two-hour periods, Li Muyang finally sensed some movement outside.

After pausing the game and exiting, Li Muyang returned to the secret realm, only to see the head of the enormous fox come into view.

When their gazes met, the Ghost Moon Fox appeared somewhat weary.

It spoke slowly, "...I’ve confirmed it; Yu Chan has indeed encountered danger."

Li Muyang did not ask what the sizable fox had been doing all this time or how it had confirmed this.

What he cared about was the news brought by the Ghost Moon Fox.

Li Muyang’s expression became grave.

"Senior, are you able to offer assistance?"

The entity before him was a true True Immortal Level existence, perhaps even ranking at the forefront among those of True Immortal Level.

If it took action personally, even if it came across a Netherworld Saint Spirit, it should be able to make a safe retreat.

But the giant fox in the mist sighed and shook its head, saying, "Difficult...it’s very difficult."

"The crisis is happening above the Misty Sea, and that mist has become a forbidden territory for us."

"Not only is it difficult for mortal beings to step foot there, but even the spirits of the Netherworld should not enter rashly."

The giant fox looked at Li Muyang and said, "Aren’t you curious why so many ancient gods perished in the dark catastrophe, yet their corpses never appear in the world?"

The Ghost Moon Fox’s question caused a jolt in Li Muyang’s heart.

He stared in astonishment at the enormous fox in front of him as it slowly said.

"That’s right, the corpses of the gods from your Mortal World are all submerged in that Misty Sea."

"The curse of the Heavenly Person Five Decays indeed drove them to a desperate situation."

"But when the land was split open and mist poured out, hiding the Holy Spirits atop the sea, those gods of the Mortal World also stepped into the mist."

"The mist above the sea confuses the direction of mortal beings, but those gods chose to self-destruct and sit in meditation, transforming themselves into wandering corpses, pursuing the traces of Netherworld spirits in the sea."

"In the catastrophe a ten thousand years ago, the majority of the gods set foot on the path to their life’s end on their own, using their bodies as cages, locking up the Holy Spirits above the Misty Sea, ensuring that Holy Spirits could never reach the land."

"Until a few years ago, Holy Spirits set foot on the land for the first time, but by then Immortal Artifact Masters had appeared. The group of Immortal Artifact Masters joined forces to repel the Holy Spirits..."

The fox recounted the past events and revelations calmly, then looked towards Li Muyang, saying, "The Misty Sea has been a forbidden territory since its creation."

"Mortal beings cannot find their way within it, Holy Spirits who enter will encounter the powerful corpses of the gods, making it a forbidden territory for spirits of both worlds, accessible to only one type of being."

The Ghost Moon Fox was referring to the Evil Gods of the Ancient Resentment Well.

The astonishing revelation it disclosed shocked Li Muyang.

He knew about the Heavenly Person Five Decays and the disappearance of the gods.

But he always thought those gods had died of natural aging and decay.

He never expected that the gods of the Mortal World ten thousand years ago chose to end their lives, preferring to become wandering corpses and enter the Misty Sea rather than lead a meager existence...

No wonder the Netherworld Saint Spirit wandered over the Misty Sea for ten thousand years, a time clearly devoid of ancient immortal gods and when the mortal world experienced a millennium-long hiatus in spiritual cultivation.

Had it returned then, no one in the mortal world could have stood against it.

Yet this supreme being of the Netherworld only set foot upon the continent after a group of Immortal Artifact Masters emerged in the mortal world.

It turns out it wasn’t that it did not wish to tread upon the land, but rather it was blocked by the corpses of the heavenly immortals wandering atop the Misty Sea, unable to cross the great wall formed by their bodies!

It was the dignified sacrifice of these immortals from ancient times that bought the creatures of the mortal world ten thousand years of time, leading up to the recent gathering of the Immortal Artifact Masters who repelled the Holy Spirit head-on.

Li Muyang fell silent for a long while before finally murmuring.

"...So, Yu Chan encountered the corpses of ancient immortals? Mistaken as a ghost god from the Netherworld and attacked?"

The massive fox corpse sighed and said, "I cannot go to the Misty Sea, but I can help guide you."

"As for what Yu Chan experienced on the Misty Sea, you’ll have to see it with your own eyes. It’s too far for me to discern clearly."

"Come with me, I’ll do my utmost to assist you. Even if you can’t save Yu Chan, at least I can ensure your survival."

The massive fox corpse turned and began to leave, and lotus flowers bloomed amidst the fog in front of Li Muyang, guiding his way.

Li Muyang was already familiar with this display, knowing that it led to the teleporting bronze mirror.

Li Muyang stepped onto the Lotus Road, following beside the massive fox.

This enigmatic and grand ghost god from the Netherworld seemed much older at this moment.

To ascertain his daughter’s condition, it had expended a great deal of energy.

Li Muyang stared at its massive figure, momentarily lost in thought.

This mysterious and powerful ghost god from the Netherworld was the only existence to have avoided the calamity of death.

It had always stayed in the Human World, never hindered by anyone from descending upon the earth. In the era when both immortals and cultivators vanished from the Mortal World, it most certainly had the opportunity to take charge and fulfill the long-cherished wish of the ghost gods of the Netherworld.

Yet, it did not do so but silently watched everything unfold.

Unable to help himself, Li Muyang inquired, "Senior, don’t you wish for the continuation of the Netherworld?"

The massive fox in the mist glanced indifferently at him, saying, "There are ways to continue one’s lineage that do not involve slaughter or plunder."

"And I, have already ensured the Netherworld’s continuation."

The words of the Ghost Moon Fox caught Li Muyang off guard.

He understood the first sentiment; the Ghost Moon Fox was referring to those ghost gods from the Netherworld who sought to contest the world with the mortal realm.

But the latter statement...

Li Muyang’s expression turned to surprise: "Senior, are you referring to Yu Chan?!"

The massive fox in the mist looked deeply at him, then turned away and continued on.

However, its voice rose coldly in the mist.

"Yu Chan is my daughter, yet she can live in the Mortal World, grow under the sun, no different from any other mortal being."

"But she is also a creature of the Netherworld, unlike us, the dying. She is something entirely new. She bears no disaster, will not bring death or slaughter."

"This is the only thing I could do for my kin after being unable to prevent those evil beings from committing their atrocities."

"The Netherworld of the past will become silent, and the dead of the Netherworld will also perish."

"But the heritage, culture, history of the Netherworld... these most precious things will continue into the future."

"My secret realm harbors the greatest treasure of the Netherworld, which in the future will be unlocked by Yu Chan and her descendants."

"I firmly believe this is the righteous path for the continuation of the Netherworld."
