The Strongest Mythical Emperor-Chapter 168: The Underworld

Black Impermanence seeking him out was definitely not just for a heart-to-heart talk.

Thinking this, Qin Jun quickened his pace of eating, and after two minutes, he stood up and said, "I have some things to do outside, you guys take your time eating."

After he said this, he turned around and left, leaving everyone puzzled; he actually didn’t bring Li Yuanba with him?

With Black and White Impermanence around, Qin Jun naturally didn’t need Li Yuanba’s protection. Moreover, he considered Black and White Impermanence as his trump card, and Li Yuanba, being too naive, could easily give it away.

"Greetings, Young Master Qin."

"Greetings, Your Highness Yue!"

"It’s rare to see King Yue out and about; it seems like today is no ordinary day!"

"You flatter me, you flatter me!"

On his way, all the cultivators he passed smiled and saluted him, and Qin Jun put on airs, returning the gesture with a fist and a nod.

Today, he was no longer an obscure minor prince from a kingdom but a famous rising star throughout the Nanzhuo Dynasty. The cultivators naturally tried to think of ways to curry favor with him, even if some of them had been eliminated by Qin Jun and Li Yuanba. However, with the recent revelation of the top ten prodigies, their attitudes took an immediate turnabout.

They all tried to find ways to ingratiate themselves with Qin Jun.

Anyone with clear eyesight could see that Qin Jun had grown up, and continuing to offend him was not beneficial.

After the exchange of pleasantries, Qin Jun left the Roaming Dragon Inn and headed straight for the suburbs.

He walked at an unhurried pace, as if he were just strolling, but wherever he went, he drew the attention of the cultivators. In Luoyan City, no one was more controversial than Qin Jun; controversy brought popularity.

Qin Jun himself was not lacking in strength, especially after his performance fighting the black Sea Dragon alone, which won over many cultivators. But because he swept through the entire city trial with the help of Li Yuanba, he offended more than ten thousand participants, so the criticisms of him were even more frequent than the praises.

About half an hour later, Qin Jun finally slowly made his way to the outskirts, followed by some riff-raff.

"Foolishly overestimating themselves."

Qin Jun’s mouth curled into a mocking smile. Now, he had the confidence to sweep through the Golden Elixir Realm and even challenge lower-level cultivators from the Ascending Mortal Realm.

After turning past a small hill, those riff-raff couldn’t help but make their move. They moved swiftly, at least four of them, leaping over the hill and descending from the sky to attack Qin Jun. They were ferocious, hoping to end Qin Jun’s life with the force of a thunderbolt.

"Hmph!"

Qin Jun let out a cold snort, quickly dodged, and at the same time pulled out his Silver Dragon Slaying Soul Spear. Accompanied by the dominant sound of dragon’s roar, the ancient dragon soul instantly condensed along the spear, coiling around Qin Jun.

In his white garb and with the silver dragon, he indeed possessed an imposing and divine demeanor!

"Qin Jun! Come meet your death!"

A rough middle-aged man bellowed angrily, with a short knife in hand that slashed towards Qin Jun like a crescent moon. The man was extremely fast, but in Qin Jun’s eyes, he seemed somewhat slow.

Qin Jun raised his spear to block; with one strike, the powerful force numbed the rough middle-aged man’s hand, and the impact sent pebbles flying from beneath Qin Jun’s feet. Qin Jun let out a cold snort, forcefully flipped, and sent the man flying away.

At the same time, three other cultivators descended from the sky, two with swords and one with an axe, each fierce as though they were three massive mountains.

A hum—

The silver dragon roared. Qin Jun, spear in hand, lifted it up and the silver dragon around him rose with a roar, domineering and formidable, head-on colliding with the three cultivators.

An unimaginable force struck them, causing the sound of bones breaking to ring out instantly, and pain that shot through their heads, causing them to cry out in agony.

The most powerful aspect of the Silver Dragon Slaying Soul Spear was not its strength, but its terrifying soul-sucking ability.

The three of them, like punching bags, were sent flying backward and crashed onto the hillside, all looking towards Qin Jun with shock and fear, as though they had seen a ghost.

The other rough middle-aged man with a short knife also looked at Qin Jun with fear, not expecting Qin Jun’s strength to be so formidable.

After all, they were also masters of the fifth level of the Golden Elixir Realm; the four of them working together had the confidence to battle even a ninth layer Golden Elixir Realm cultivator, so how were they defeated by Qin Jun in a flash?

They couldn’t accept it.

"Qin Jun! If I don’t kill you today, my son won’t rest in peace in the Netherworld!" The burly middle-aged man bellowed, charging at Qin Jun as he spoke.

The enmity of a son’s murder is irreconcilable, and Qin Jun could understand that, but he wouldn’t go down without a fight.

He could seek revenge, but he had to have the strength to do so!

Just then, two ghostly pale hands like claws burst from the ground, seizing his feet. Caught off guard, the burly middle-aged man fell to the ground with a thud.

"Tsk, tsk, daring to kill His Highness, even the Netherworld has no place for you."

The sinister laughter of Black Impermanence rang out, causing the burly middle-aged man to widen his eyes in terror. With a splat, the ghostly claw of Black Impermanence pierced through his heart, pushing it out of his body to be exposed to the sunlight, making Qin Jun’s eyelids twitch.

Such a cruel method.

Luckily, he’s on our side.

Qin Jun sighed inwardly. Just then, a scream came from not far away. He turned to look and saw White Impermanence standing at the foot of the hill, hands holding a huge scythe dripping with fresh blood, with the three cultivators’ corpses at his feet.

They died just like that, alas, without even revealing their names.

A nameless sorrow flowed through Qin Jun’s heart, but on the surface, he wore a full smile and approached Black Impermanence, asking, "What can I do for you?"

"It’s about that demon cultivator. Didn’t Your Highness ask us to investigate recently?" said Black Impermanence with a smile. freeweɓnovel~cѳm

A fearsome demon cultivator who surpassed the Immortal Realm, Qin Jun obviously couldn’t ignore, so he had tasked Black and White Impermanence with the investigation.

Qin Jun’s eyes lit up, and he exclaimed with delight, "You found something?"

He hadn’t expected Black and White Impermanence to work so efficiently. If he could nip Ye Xuan in the bud, not only could he get a significant reward, but he would also eliminate a potential threat.

"Hmm, he has already left Luoyan City," White Impermanence approached and said, causing Qin Jun to feel disappointed.

He couldn’t leave just for Ye Xuan now.

"We should head to the Netherworld, some strong entities are approaching this place," Black Impermanence said with a glance in the direction of the city area.

The Netherworld?

Qin Jun suddenly became excited, and just as he was about to speak, Black and White Impermanence each grabbed one of his shoulders, and the three of them vanished on the spot.

About three breaths later, Xu Guiku flew over and looked down at the four corpses, his expression instantly turning gloomy.

"Damn it! It’s like they are ignoring my very existence!" Xu Guiku growled quietly. The continuous murders in Luoyan City, and several times, he couldn’t even catch the murderer, gave him an unnerving sense that the murderer was challenging him.

...

Upon opening his eyes again, Qin Jun found himself on a dimly lit street, with the buildings on both sides in ruins and darkness, devoid of any light, eerie and sinister. Looking up at the sky, it was pitch-black, no stars, only a blood-red moon.

The Netherworld also has a moon?

Qin Jun was puzzled, but then he remembered this place wasn’t Earth Huaxia, so Earthly common sense shouldn’t apply.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for your first visit to the Netherworld, rewarded with one God and Demon summon!"

The system alert suddenly rang out, startling Qin Jun, who froze in place. Holy shit, is this even possible?

Why didn’t he trigger a reward when he arrived at the Nanzhuo Dynasty?

It seemed the Netherworld held great significance. Under normal circumstances, Qin Jun would have to die before he could come here.
