Chapter 1446: Chapter 894: The Underworld Market and the Departure of Ye Fan’s Trio_2

The most obvious were the wraiths in The Underworld who, before the market functionality was initiated, often wandered aimlessly and confusedly in front of the Gate of the Ghost.

As the rules were established, the eyes of these wraiths became noticeably clear and bright, as if they had suddenly learned to think, no longer aimless.

At the same time, a three-dimensional overhead map of The Underworld appeared in front of Jiang Hui.

Simultaneously, a three-dimensional overhead map of The Underworld appeared before Jiang Hui. This map was woven from countless interlaced lights and shadows, clearly presenting the entire Underworld’s topography, architectural distribution, and the trajectories of wraith activities right before his eyes. Jiang Hui squinted slightly, observing the image carefully; he needed to choose the most suitable location to establish the market.

He first ruled out the area near the Gate of the Ghost because it was the first stop for wraiths entering The Underworld. Although there was heavy foot traffic, it was too noisy and chaotic for the long-term development of the market. Then, he excluded those sinister and desolate places, seldom visited, because these areas lacked vitality and were unable to attract wraiths for trading.

Eventually, Jiang Hui’s gaze settled on a vacant lot located in the central area of The Underworld. Encircled by several ancient temples and palaces of simple and elegant architectural style, the spot harmonized with the overall ambience of The Underworld. Moreover, the location was accessible from all directions, allowing wraiths from any direction to easily find their way there.

“This place it is!” Jiang Hui decided in his heart, lightly touching the three-dimensional map with his fingertip, and a beam of light instantly shot out from his fingertip, landing precisely on that vacant lot. With the falling of the light, the originally empty ground began to tremble slightly, followed by cracks that appeared and emitted countless colorful lights. The lights interwove and spiraled in the air, eventually merging into a giant archway with the words “Market” inscribed on it, shining brilliantly.

…

On this day, Ye Fan, Emperor Merciless, and Emperor No-Origin found Jiang Hui to say goodbye in person, preparing to leave this place,

Although they were still not rejected by the world.

However, they had already stayed here for quite some time.

Despite not wanting to leave, all banquets must come to an end, and the three of them had more important matters to attend to,

In that Land of Evil Omen, apart from them, other Life were struggling; the three of them were the main force.

“This parting, who knows how many years and months it will be before we meet again? The mountains are tall, the rivers long; take care, you three! May the wind be at your back.” Jiang Hui sighed.

Even though the time spent together wasn’t exceedingly long, whether it was Ye Fan, Emperor Merciless, or Emperor No-Origin, each had taken a liking to his temperament, naturally feeling a bit reluctant to part.

“With Your Excellency’s strength, you should be aware of the existence of that place, and you should know how extremely difficult the future is… Do you really not want to join us in that place to fight bravely?”

Ye Fan and the others exchanged glances and finally, Emperor Merciless was the first to speak.

“To tell the truth, we come from the future’s time-space and have seen some things concerning Liu Village…”

Ready to leave, Emperor Merciless and the others decided not to hide anything anymore, willing to remind and bear the Karma if necessary.

Because the longer they interacted with The Master of Liu Village, the more they could sense the unparalleled presence of this figure in the white robe.

Not only was his strength above theirs, but he also aspired to create Reincarnation, independently above the Karma of fate.

How immense must one’s ambition be to undertake such a feat that nearly defies fate?

Even they found it hard to imagine.

Such an existence, should he manage to survive into the future and fight alongside them, would undoubtedly be the nightmare of the Bizarre Clan and the hope of the Ten Thousand Race Beings!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hui looked towards the Willow God.

The Willow God did not hesitate and continued: “To be honest, we have not discovered any news about your land in the future, which is clearly abnormal. As time is eternal, it will leave traces. Hence, the only explanation could be that your land must have suddenly suffered some irresistible impact, and even Your Excellency could not contend. Combined with Your Excellency’s intention to create Reincarnation…”

As the words ended, Emperor Merciless did not continue, because the meaning was already very clear.

The passage of time leaves its mark; if there is no trace, it likely encountered an unimaginable calamity.

Considering the Willow God’s grand gesture of creating Reincarnation, the only thing that could leave the Immortal Emperor powerless would be the overwhelming Karma reversing against him.

The word Reincarnation alone is enough to carry such Karma.

“Perhaps the future will change, I have seen more, the outcomes of the future are never set in stone, and time itself is not absolutely constrained. Rest assured, I firmly believe that when the time comes, everything will change.”

As Jiang Hui spoke, he silently chuckled in his heart.

Because of the Golden Finger, I bear no karma and have been parachuted into this world.

For these two reasons, neither the past nor the future years have anything to do with me.

The only time that can affect me is right now.

Moreover, as I reach the Immortal Emperor’s Realm, even the present time is gradually losing its grip on me, and once I enter the Sacrificial Path State, time will completely erase any traces of my existence.

Therefore, it is impossible for the three of them to find any information about me or Liu Village in the future years.

Conversely, if there is news of me in the future, that would truly be alarming.

As for the Netherworld Underworld that I established, it has nothing to do with me at all.

Although on the surface, I did establish the Netherworld Underworld, in reality, everything needed was hatched from the dragon egg.

This matter is my biggest secret, and I cannot tell anyone, not even Liu RuYan.

As for Ye Fan and the others… let them misunderstand. It will eventually be resolved.

Ye Fan’s expression is grave, feeling that Jiang Hui is being too presumptuous.

Coming from the future, what they have seen is already enough to indicate that the future here is too tragic.

With thoughts settled, he looks at Jiang Hui, considers for a moment, but still somewhat reluctant, he attempts to touch the heart of this enigmatic powerhouse with his final words:

“Fellow Daoist, we understand your persistence in reincarnation and also see your boldness. However, you must know, each act of defying heaven is accompanied by unimaginable risks. Even if you have the power to suppress all lesser beings, some matters still require long-term consideration…”

Emperor Merciless takes over the conversation: “We do not wish to see a powerful being, who might rewrite history and become the hope of the future, fall into endless calamity because of momentary persistence. The path of reincarnation is long and complicated; please think thrice.”

“I appreciate your kindness, but my heart is set, and I will not change. There is no need for further words,” Jiang Hui says, waving his hand, not wanting to delve further into the topic.

Upon hearing this, a complex expression flashes through the eyes of Ye Fan and the others.

Trying to change the will of an Immortal Emperor with just a few words is indeed a pipe dream.

Emperor Merciless frowns slightly, as if wanting to ask more, but in the end, he merely sighs lightly without saying anything.

Emperor No-Origin speaks in a deep voice: “If that is the case, then we will no longer press the issue. Fellow Daoist, take care!”

“Take care!”

Although several Dark Quasi-Celestial Emperors that were lurking in The Boundary Sea have been destroyed, a glance reveals that this place remains endlessly dark, seemingly untouched by any external force since ancient times.

At this moment, in the deepest part of The Boundary Sea, that ultimate ancient site.

Here, the desolation is even greater, with temples collapsed, ruins and rubble strewn everywhere, the barren ground covered in swirling black fog, rolling over like waves, within which one can vaguely see stacks of unidentified bones accumulated.

Indefinite time has passed, yet these bones still look bizarrely extraordinary, some even exuding a halo of light with Taoist rhythms flowing on their surfaces.

These bones could not possibly belong to mere mortal beings; anyone who made it here was at least an Immortal King.

Among them is a skull burning with ghostly blue flames, its skin and flesh intact, appearing incredibly lifelike, as if it would come to life in the next moment.

This is the corpse of a Supreme Giant.

It is a menacing lion’s head with horns and a crimson vertical slit in the center of its brow, slightly opened, though the eyes within have been gouged out, with chunks of brain matter spilling from the inside.

After millions of years, this head remains as if it was from yesterday, its flesh not decayed.

Moreover, if one observes carefully, they can see that the head bone is covered in dense, pitch-black bizarre flora, firmly rooted onto it.
