"This is the Purple Yin Thunderfire Pearl. Once activated, it will surely severely injure Purple Frost or Blood Cloud!" the Green-Faced Ghost Emperor said with a smile.

The Purple Yin Thunderfire Pearl is a treasure that the Green-Faced Ghost King has painstakingly refined over many years.

In recent years, in addition to seeking out ghosts of equal power as allies, he has also been painstakingly refining the Purple Yin Thunderfire Pearl as his trump card.

Even if Lu Cheng'an did not ultimately enter the Netherworld, he was still able to severely injure or even kill the two fifth-tier ghosts of Wanhe Palace by relying on the power of the Purple Yin Thunderfire Pearl.

Unfortunately, the two fifth-tier ghosts from Wanhe Palace invited the Miyin Old Monster from Yinhua Sect. If the three of them joined forces, even if he used the Purple Yin Thunderfire Pearl to severely injure the two fifth-tier ghosts from Wanhe Palace, it wouldn't be of much use.

But now that he has received Lu Cheng'an's help, the situation is very different.

If he could severely injure either Zishuang or Xueyun with the Purple Yin Thunderfire Pearl, then with his and Lu Cheng'an's strength, they would definitely be able to defeat the two fifth-tier ghosts of Wanhe Palace and the Bewitching Old Monster.

Although the Green-Faced Ghost King did not activate the Purple Yin Thunderfire Pearl, Lu Cheng'an could still sense the terrifying power contained within it.

Lu Cheng'an didn't say much, but let the Green-Faced Ghost King continue to explain his next battle plan.

After seeing Lu Cheng'an's signal, the Green-Faced Ghost King continued, "I will handle the two fifth-tier ghosts from Wanhe Palace. Fellow Daoist Lu, please hold off the Bewitching Old Monster. However, Fellow Daoist Lu, you must exercise restraint when you attack. You can injure the Bewitching Old Monster, but you must not kill him!"

"The exit from Wanhe Palace to the mortal world is controlled by the Yin Hua Sect. If we kill the Mi Yin Old Monster, even if we can control the passage from Wanhe Palace to the mortal world, we will still face the Yin Hua Sect's crazy retaliation."

"I don't know much about the Yin Hua Sect, but I'm certain that their strength is far greater than ours. There are at least some cultivators at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm in this force!"

When the Green-Faced Ghost Emperor mentioned the Yin Hua Sect, a solemn expression appeared on his face.

Although there is only one minor realm difference between the mid-stage and early-stage Nascent Soul realms, the higher the cultivation level, the more obvious the gap between minor realms becomes.

Although the Green-Faced Ghost King felt that he was powerful, he was definitely no match for a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Does Fellow Daoist Qingmian intend to continue cooperating with Yin Hua Sect after eliminating the two fifth-tier ghosts of Wanhe Palace?" Lu Cheng'an asked.

"I do have this idea, so I hope that when Fellow Daoist Lu fights with Old Monster Miyin, he can keep his temper in check," the Green-Faced Ghost Emperor said with a soft laugh.

As long as he controls the entrance from the Netherworld to the mortal world, it doesn't really matter to him which force in the mortal world controls the exit.

Moreover, the Yin Hua Sect and the Wan He Sect only have a cooperative relationship, and he believes that the Wan He Palace and the Yin Hua Sect do not have any deep friendship.

As long as he destroys Wanhe Palace and gains control of the entrance from the Netherworld to the mortal world, Yinhua Sect will definitely be willing to cooperate with him.

"I will follow Fellow Daoist Qingmian's advice and maintain a certain level of restraint when fighting the Bewitching Old Monster. However, if the Bewitching Old Monster's strength is too overwhelming, I will have no choice but to resort to some other methods!" Lu Cheng'an said solemnly.

Although the chances of him killing the Old Monster of Miyin are slim, it's still necessary to give the Green-Faced Ghost King a heads-up first.

"You can rest assured, Fellow Daoist Lu. In critical moments, Fellow Daoist Lu's safety will naturally be our top priority!" said the Green-Faced Ghost King.

"Has the Old Monster of the Yin Hua Sect already entered the Netherworld? If he hasn't entered the Netherworld yet, can we directly attack the two fifth-tier ghosts of the Wanhe Palace now?" Lu Cheng'an asked.

According to the Green-Faced Ghost King, the Bewitching Old Monster should not have entered the Netherworld yet.

If they were to attack the two fifth-tier ghosts of Wanhe Palace now, their chances of success would certainly be much greater.

"I'm not sure if the Old Monster of Miyin has entered Wanhe Palace yet, but if we take the initiative, the chances of successfully killing Zishuang and Xueyun are not high."

The Green-Faced Ghost Emperor sighed and said, "Although Zi Shuang and Xue Yun are not particularly strong, there is a high-grade fifth-rank magic array in Wanhe Palace. Relying on the power of the array, we have no chance of killing them."

Lu Cheng'an nodded slightly and said, "In that case, I will follow Fellow Daoist Qingmian's arrangement!"

After discussing the details with Lu Cheng'an, the Green-Faced Ghost King invited Lu Cheng'an to accompany him to Qingluo City.

Once the Old Monster of Miyin arrives, Zishuang and Xueyun, the two fifth-tier ghosts, will definitely lead the Old Monster of Miyin to Qingluo City.

Qingluo City is the home ground of the Green-Faced Ghost King, and it is extremely far from Wanhe Palace.

Even if Zi Shuang and Xue Yun wanted to escape, it wouldn't be an easy task.

The Green-Faced Ghost King is now inviting Lu Cheng'an to Qingluo City so that Lu Cheng'an can familiarize himself with the environment of Qingluo City in advance.

Therefore, Lu Cheng'an did not refuse, and he quickly followed the Green-Faced Ghost King to Qingluo City.

Qingluo City is much larger than Huaiyin City, and the ghostly aura within the city is much denser, with a greater number of high-level ghosts.

After entering Qingluo City, Lu Cheng'an sensed the auras of many fourth-order ghosts.

However, Lu Cheng'an's current identity still needs to be kept secret. The Green-Faced Ghost King secretly brought Lu Cheng'an into Qingluo City without attracting the attention of other ghosts in Qingluo City.

"Please bear with me for a couple of days, Fellow Daoist Lu. I've already instructed my men to set up the Netherworld-Suppressing Formation in the cave I've arranged for you as soon as possible!" the Green-Faced Ghost King said apologetically.

Before they even returned to Qingluo City, the Green-Faced Ghost King had already sent a message to his array masters, instructing them to quickly select a cave dwelling and set up a Netherworld-Suppressing Array to ensure that not a single trace of Netherworld energy remained in the cave dwelling.

Although the Netherworld Qi is the energy they need for cultivation, it is of no benefit to cultivators like Lu Cheng'an from the mortal world.

"No need to rush this, I can hold on for a while!" Lu Chengan said.

With his current strength, as long as he doesn't fight a fifth-tier ghost like the Green-Faced Ghost King in the Netherworld, he can hold out for a long time even in places with dense Netherworld energy.

Before the Netherworld-Suppressing Formation that the Green-Faced Ghost King had arranged for Lu Cheng'an to be set up was completed, the Green-Faced Ghost King arranged for Lu Cheng'an to enter a cave with relatively thin Netherworld energy.

Two days is a very short time; it passed in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, the array masters under the Green-Faced Ghost King successfully set up the Netherworld-Suppressing Array and cleared out all the Netherworld energy from the cave.

Lu Cheng'an moved into this cave dwelling, waiting for the Green-Faced Ghost King's instructions to take action against the two ghosts of Wanhe Palace.

While Lu Cheng'an was resting in his cave, the Green-Faced Ghost King was not idle.

He had been keeping a close eye on the situation at Wanhe Palace and preparing for their upcoming attack. Time flew by, and two months passed in the blink of an eye.

Lu Cheng'an was in the Netherworld and didn't have much time to do anything, but he couldn't afford to be idle, so he spent all his time studying the cultivation techniques.

Although the cultivation method of the Di Yan True Scripture Transformation Chapter is in line with the cultivation method of the Nascent Soul Chapter, it is much more profound than the cultivation method of the Nascent Soul Chapter.

After two months of dedicated study, Lu Cheng'an only managed to comprehend the Di Yan True Scripture's Transformation Chapter to a minor level, still some distance from achieving mastery.

A cultivator's comprehension of cultivation techniques is divided into four stages: entry level, minor success, major success, and perfection. The deeper the comprehension of the technique, the higher the efficiency in practicing the technique and the faster the cultivation level will increase.

The reason why Lu Cheng'an had not comprehended the Divine Transformation Chapter of the Earth Flame True Scripture before was because the fifth-order spiritual veins in the Lu family's mountain gate had not yet been fully cultivated.

Even if he successfully comprehends the Divine Transformation Chapter of the Earth Flame True Scripture, without the assistance of a fifth-order spiritual vein, his cultivation speed will not improve very quickly.
In addition, since he had just broken through his cultivation level, he still had many things to do, so he temporarily put aside the time to comprehend the cultivation technique.

Only now, after entering the Netherworld, has he finally had the time to study the cultivation technique.

Two months later, the Green-Faced Ghost King finally received definite news: the Bewitching Old Monster had now entered the Netherworld, and the two fifth-tier ghosts of the Myriad Rivers Palace, Qing Shuang and Xue Yun, would soon launch an attack on Qingluo City.

Upon receiving this news, the Green-Faced Ghost King immediately went to Lu Cheng'an's cave.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, have you been settling in well here for the past two months?" the Green-Faced Ghost Emperor asked with great concern.

"The environment here is relatively quiet, but since I come from the mortal world, I'm still not quite used to it!"

Lu Cheng'an smiled helplessly and asked, "Fellow Daoist Qingmian, are you here now because there's been news from Wanhe Palace?"

"I've come to see Fellow Daoist Lu because I want to talk to you about this matter!"

"I have received definite news that the Old Monster of Miyin has now entered Wanhe Palace. Zishuang and Xueyun will definitely launch an attack on me in the next few days. Please prepare for the battle, Fellow Daoist Lu!" the Green-Faced Ghost Emperor said in a deep voice.

"Rest assured, Fellow Daoist Green Face, I will definitely do my best!"

The Green-Faced Ghost King did not stay in Lu Cheng'an's cave for long. After telling Lu Cheng'an the news, he hurriedly left Lu Cheng'an's cave.

Wanhe Palace is about to launch an attack on Qingluo City, and he still has many things to prepare.

Just as the Green-Faced Ghost Emperor had predicted, two days after he received the news, Zi Shuang and Xue Yun, two fifth-tier ghosts, led a group of ghosts from Wanhe Palace to drive the Dragon Jade Profound Yin Dharma Ship toward Qingluo City.

The Dragon Jade Profound Yin Dharma Ship is a top-grade fourth-tier Yin artifact. Dharma ships are quite special; they are many times larger than normal Yin artifacts and are extremely difficult to construct.

However, once completed, the French ships were extremely powerful.

The Dragon Jade Profound Yin Dharma Ship of Wanhe Palace is an example of this. Even a fourth-tier ghost can push this Dharma Ship to its limit, at which point the Dharma Ship can unleash the power of a fifth-tier early-stage ghost.

This time, Wanhe Palace had already dispatched three Nascent Soul Realm experts, and with the addition of the Longfei Xuanyin Dharma Ship, the total strength of Nascent Soul Realm experts reached four.

This time, Zi Shuang and Xue Yun were determined to kill the Green-Faced Ghost King and completely eliminate this future threat.

The Green-Faced Ghost King broke through to the fifth level much later than Zi Shuang and Xue Yun, but now the Green-Faced Ghost King's strength far surpasses that of Zi Shuang and Xue Yun.

Given time, the Green-Faced Ghost King will likely break through to the mid-stage of the fifth rank, at which point they will be even less of a match for him.

Therefore, they must completely kill the Green-Faced Ghost King before he makes a major breakthrough in strength.

The Dragon Jade Mystic Yin Dharma Ship was extremely fast. Although Wanhe Palace and Qingluo City were far apart, they arrived at Qingluo City very quickly.

“Fellow Daoist Lu, that is the fourth-tier top-grade Dragon Jade Profound Yin Dharma Ship of Wanhe Palace. A fourth-tier ghost can fully activate this Dharma Ship, but the power released by the Dharma Ship is comparable to the power of a fifth-tier early stage cultivator!”

"The Dragon Jade Profound Yin Dharma Ship will be dealt with by the fourth-tier cultivators of my Azure Luo City. Our main targets are still Purple Frost, Blood Cloud, and Old Monster Mi Yin. I believe the three of them share the same idea!"

As the Green-Faced Ghost King spoke, he carried Lu Cheng'an out of Qingluo City. Then, a bluish-gray light emerged from Qingluo City, forming a protective shield that encompassed the entire city.

The Azure City was refined into a powerful Yin artifact by the Azure-Faced Ghost King. Although it was not as powerful as the Dragon Jade Profound Yin Dharma Ship of the Ten Thousand Rivers Palace, it could still withstand the attacks of the Dragon Jade Profound Yin Dharma Ship for a period of time.

"Green Face, today is your death day!"

The moment the Green-Faced Ghost Emperor rushed out of Qingluo City, he was immediately noticed by the Purple Frost Ghost Emperor and the Blood Cloud Ghost Emperor.

The two ghosts burst into laughter and attacked the Green-Faced Ghost King directly.

Before the Purple Frost Ghost King and the Blood Cloud Ghost King, there was an old man dressed in a brown robe. This man was the Bewitching Old Monster of the Yin Hua Sect.

The Old Monster of Miyin held a purple jade flute. After the Purple Frost Ghost King and the Blood Cloud Ghost King attacked the Green-Faced Ghost King, the Old Monster of Miyin played the purple jade flute in his hand.

The flute's melody soared, containing an extremely terrifying power.

The Old Monster of Lost Sound is skilled in the art of sonic attacks. The flute music he plays now is not particularly powerful, but it can bewitch people's minds and weaken their strength.

At the same time, the flute music can also bless the cultivators on our side, and the buffing power of the flute music is not low.

With the blessing of this flute music, the power of the Purple Frost Ghost Emperor and the Blood Cloud Ghost Emperor will increase by 10% to 20%.

However, they will fall into a period of weakness after the battle.

The Old Monster of Miyin had already entered Wanhe Palace before. The reason why he only made a move against Qingluo City now is because the Ghost Emperor of Purple Frost and the Ghost Emperor of Blood Cloud were getting used to the power enhanced by the Old Monster of Miyin's flute music.

As the tide turned, the Green-Faced Ghost King was immediately put on the defensive after meeting the attacks of the two fifth-tier ghosts from Wanhe Palace.

Upon seeing this, Lu Cheng'an immediately sent a secret message to the Green-Faced Ghost King, instructing him to prepare to unleash the Purple Yin Thunderfire Pearl, as he would then make his move against the Purple Frost Ghost King.

The Green-Faced Ghost King didn't know what methods Lu Cheng'an had, but the strength of the Bewitching Old Monster was beyond his expectations.

He hadn't expected that the Old Monster of Enchanting Sound's flute music would amplify the power of the Purple Frost Ghost Emperor and the Blood Cloud Ghost Emperor, which made him unsure whether he could severely injure them with the Purple Yin Thunderfire Pearl. (End of Chapter)
