Chapter 616: Chapter 424: The Primordial Soul Transforms, the Immortal Infant Gathers!
“Huh?”
“Did they give up so easily?”
Xu Yang, holding the Jiao-slaying Sword, stood outside the gate of Wangwu Ghost Market. Seeing that the Netherworld Demons no longer “chased” him, he immediately took out the altar of ritual, sat down cross-legged, and laid down a nine-fold formation around him, laughing, “Since you all stopped attacking, I will cultivate here.”
The voice of the Lady Demon, ethereal and clear, came to him. She sneered, “Where you cultivate is your own business… But after I recover my powers, you will be the first to die!”
Xu Yang believed that in terms of talking, he was no weaker than anyone in his life.
He opened the system attribute panel, his consciousness gently touching the small “+” symbol next to the “Wulei Rules.”
“Ding!”
“Merit Points -1,000,000.”
“Wulei Rules +1.”
In his mind, the system prompt sounded.
As Xu Yang simultaneously comprehended the “rules of the Thunderbolt,” he laughed, “Don’t worry, I won’t give you that chance… before you regain your powers, I will definitely kill you!”
The Lady Demon lightly chuckled, “Eight hundred years ago, I already reached the peak level of the Asura Realm, equivalent to the peak of the Heavenly Immortal Realm. Now it will take at most three months to recover my powers… How much can you progress in three months?”
Her figure flashed and disappeared into the darkness of the Wangwu Ghost Market.

She called the seventy-two Netherworld Demons she had gathered and said, “Wu Mosi, since you’ve fought that human, share your thoughts.”
Wu Mosi was the Netherworld Demon who had just been chasing Xu Yang.
At this moment, he was severely injured, weak in breath, and said with a serious expression, “That human cultivates both martial arts and the Dao, but his cultivation realm is not too high. His Daoist skills are at the peak of the Daoist True Monarch, and his martial arts are at the mid-stage of the realm of the Land Immortal. However, his cultivation is extremely terrifying, majestic like Immortal Beings, and he has an immortal artifact in hand, possessing the power to fight Immortals!”
“If it weren’t for my speed and survivability, I might not have even been able to return from that battle!”
Hearing Wu Mosi’s account, the faces of many Netherworld Demons turned serious.
Furthermore, Xu Yang himself admitted that he had killed two Netherworld Demons… It seemed he really did possess the ability to fight “Immortal Beings!”
“Hmph!”
A Netherworld Demon at the Asura Realm snorted coldly and said, “Even if he has the power to fight Immortals, so what? We have eighteen Asura Realm demons that have been sent to the human world, each one an elite… As long as we recover our strength, killing him will be as easy as killing a dog!”
The Lady Demon nodded slightly and said, “It won’t be difficult for us to kill him once we recover our powers… But since he is just outside the Wangwu Ghost Market now, I’m worried that he may cause trouble while we are in seclusion. So, we cannot all seclude ourselves together.”
She selected nine “Asura Realm” Netherworld Demons and another twenty-seven Netherworld Demons below the Asura Realm. Turning to the remaining Netherworld Demons, she said, “Starting today, we will focus on regaining our strength in seclusion while you guard the entrance of the Ghost Market. You must not let that human disturb us.”
“In at most three months, I will be able to recover my strength.”
“When I recover my strength, it will be the day that human dies. We will no longer need to worry about human experts. We can directly break out of the Wangwu Ghost Market and slaughter the human cities… At that time, you can consume as much human blood as you want, and you will be able to return to your peak within a day!”
The easiest way for the Netherworld Demons to recover their strength was to consume fresh blood!
As soon as they appeared, they originally planned to use this method.
To massacre human cities and devour the essence of human blood!
What they didn’t expect was that the humans today were so strong… and seemingly had a way to communicate at any time and place. As soon as they appeared, it wouldn’t be long before human experts arrived!
Within a few short days, five “Asura Realm” Netherworld Demons had already fallen.
To minimize unnecessary sacrifices,
The Lady Demon had summoned all the Netherworld Demons within Da Xia, captured the Wangwu Ghost Market, and planned to seclude herself within the market to practice. She intended to control some Yin spirits and malevolent beings to provide blood for her, and execute the task assigned to them by the Blood Emperor after recovering her strength.
What she didn’t expect…
They had only captured the Wangwu Ghost Market the day before, and on the second day, they were discovered by an expert human.
And now, such an annoying guy was blocking the entrance to the Ghost Market!
The Lady Demon arranged everything methodically, and soon she began her seclusion.
The nine “Asura Realm” Netherworld Demons stared at Xu Yang, who was sitting cross-legged at the entrance of the Ghost Market. They communicated with each other through their spiritual senses.
“Damn it!”
“Since when has our Netherworld race been so suffocated, blocked by a mere human ant!”
“Times change… Don’t be impulsive. In order to fulfill the Blood Emperor’s great cause, what’s wrong with us enduring a little more? Once the Lady Demon finishes her seclusion, we will definitely turn Da Xia into ruins!”
“Damn it… What is that guy doing?”
Suddenly, one Netherworld Demon shouted, “He’s enlightening… He’s actually enlightening?”
Many eyes were instantly drawn to Xu Yang. They saw him sitting cross-legged on the ground, surrounded by flickering thunder light, an incomprehensibly profound aura around him. His eyes were tightly closed, as if he had entered a state of realization.
Several Netherworld Demons felt that their dignity had been greatly insulted and, filled with anger, they attacked.
Boom!
Around Xu Yang, the nine-fold formation rose, blocking the attack of the Netherworld Demons.
