Chapter 48: The Underworld Soldiers Borrow the Path, All Spirits Retreat (Ch 48)

The thirty-five ghosts looked at each other and soon knelt on the ground.

They all realized it.

The owner of that extremely majestic voice was Zhang Yuegong, the god of the land!

“Duke Zhangyue! Can you retain your memory and be conferred as a ghost soldier?”

“If I could keep my memory, I would not enter reincarnation and serve the Duke of Zhangyue!”

A ghost who didn’t look very old rolled his eyes and spoke loudly.

But he had just finished speaking.

A black vortex emerged in the “Underworld Realm”.

An endless eerie aura emanated from the black vortex, which rotated gently and directly sucked the ghost who had spoken into it, disappearing.

The remaining thirty-four ghosts saw this and knew that the ghost had been sent to the underworld for reincarnation.

They were silent as a mouse, not daring to speak any more, and they all started thinking in their hearts.

Reincarnation can bring you new life.

But is the new person still himself?

If one does not enter the cycle of reincarnation and is appointed as a ghost soldier by Duke Zhangyue, all his memories will be lost. Only by being promoted to a ‘Grade A ghost soldier’ ​​can some of his memories be restored.

It is still unknown when all memories will be restored.

not to mention–

It would probably be extremely difficult to be promoted to Class A Yin Soldier!

For a while.

The expressions of the thirty-four ghosts kept changing, and they were all struggling frantically within their hearts.

“Make a choice.”

“Those who wish to enter reincarnation will go directly to the underworld.”

“Otherwise they will be regarded as Yin soldiers.”

The indifferent and majestic voice sounded again.

Suddenly——

Among the thirty-four ghosts, twelve stood up, gritted their teeth, and rushed into the black vortex ahead.

They feel that—

Rather than becoming a ghost soldier without memories, it is better to go to the afterlife!

perhaps–

They will live a different life in the next life!

There were still twenty-two ghosts kneeling on the ground of the “Underworld”, all of them looked nervous.

“You will be appointed by me and serve as my soldiers from now on.”

“All the things in the world are gone.”

Li Yue’s calm voice came.

The next moment——

Twenty-two divine powers fell from the “divine realm” and transformed into pieces of “yin soldiers and divine scrolls” in mid-air.

A large number of white runes appeared on the ‘Yin Bing Shen Lu’. The runes were dazzling and rushed into the bodies of twenty-two ghosts in a flash.

Suddenly——

White light burst out from the twenty-two ghosts kneeling on the ground!

A large amount of negative energy in the “Underworld” gathered towards them.

Their ghost bodies became solid at a speed visible to the naked eye. They also wore an illusory set of armor and held an illusory ancient spear in their hands.

The expressions on their faces disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the blink of an eye they became cold and heartless.

All memories are gone.

The only things in their minds were some basic information instilled in them by the ‘Yin Bing Divine Scroll’, as well as a set of Yin Bing combat tactics.

In the Yinbing tactics——

Including military formations and martial arts techniques.

There is nothing else.

“Greetings to Lord Zhangyue.”

Twenty-two ghost soldiers knelt on one knee with expressionless faces, their voices eerie, cold and ruthless.

This is the Yin soldier!

Very different from a ghost messenger.

A ghost messenger must have memory and thoughts in order to perform his duty of collecting souls.

As for ghost soldiers, those without memories are the best.

Obey orders!

The duty of the ghost soldiers is to guard the “underworld” and deal with demons and monsters that the ghost officers cannot handle.

“I appoint you as the captain of the Yin Army, and a ‘Class C Yin Army’.”

Li Yue pointed casually.

Suddenly, ten divine powers descended and transformed into the “Enhanced Yin Soldiers Divine Talisman” which merged into the body of one of the Yin Soldiers.

Suddenly——

The Yin energy of this Yin soldier surged, and he jumped directly from a level comparable to the middle of the first order to a level comparable to the lower second order.

Then——

Another Yin soldier magic weapon, ‘Yin soldier war spear’, fell into the hands of this Yin soldier.

The aura of this ghost soldier surged again, reaching a level comparable to the upper second level.

“As for you——”

“They were all given the title of ‘D-class Yin Soldiers’.”

In the “Divine Realm”, Li Yue’s expression was calm and he spoke again.

One after another, the ‘ghost soldiers’ spears’ flew out from the “divine realm”, entered the “underworld realm”, and fell into the hands of ghost soldiers.

moment–

The Yin energy is strong in the entire “Underworld Realm”, and the remaining twenty-one Yin soldiers have become “D-level Yin soldiers”, whose strength is not weaker than the lower second level!

“Go ahead.”

Li Yue looked towards Thousand Wolf Mountain and waved his hand gently.

Hundreds of divine powers flew out and directly opened up a “Netherworld Realm” under the ground of Thousand Wolf Mountain.

This “underworld realm” is ten zhang long, ten zhang wide, and ten zhang high.

Now that we already have ghost soldiers, we naturally cannot mix with the ghost messengers.

This “Underworld Law Realm” is the military camp he created specifically for the ghost soldiers.

The twenty-two ghost soldiers bowed again, then walked out of the “Underworld Law Realm” under the land temple with expressionless faces and headed towards the “Underworld Law Realm” of Thousand Wolf Mountain.

Li Youming was instantly startled.

He walked out of the room.

Looking at the twenty-two ghost soldiers wearing ancient armor and holding cold spears walking on the ghost soil, he shuddered suddenly.

Zhao Jiuyuan, who was kneeling in front of the land temple, widened his eyes.

In a daze, he also saw twenty-two ghost soldiers walking on the dark soil!

“The Yin soldiers borrow the road… All the spirits retreat…”

He murmured, thinking of this ancient rumor.

But even though he was gifted and had a red heart, this was also the first time he had seen the legendary Yin soldiers borrowing the road!

This made him believe it even more.

The Zhang Yuegong worshipped in Sihai Village is a real god!

After all, ancient legends mentioned that the Yin soldiers were soldiers under the gods, fighting for the gods and defeating demons.

Thinking so.

He also began to truly believe in Duke Zhang Yue devoutly.

Because he thought of—

Perhaps only with sincere belief can one truly meet this god!

…

“A total of 242 divine powers were consumed.”

In the “Divine Realm”, Li Yue’s expression was calm.

Then——

His gaze fell on the ghost messengers who were startled and returned to the land temple.

Twelve ghost messengers.

Liao Xiuer is a ‘Class C Ghost Messenger’ and Li Youtang is a ‘Class D Ghost Messenger’.

The other ten ghost messengers are all substitute ghost messengers.

“Let’s improve it as well.”

“I, Li Yue, am not a stingy god.”

He whispered to himself.

The next moment——

His eyes fell on Liao Xiuer and Li Youtang, and a mighty voice rang in their minds:

“You all work hard, and I will confer upon you the title of ‘Class B Ghost Messenger’ for Liao Xiu’er and ‘Class C Ghost Messenger’ for Li Youtang.”

The words fell.

He flicked his fingers.

First, one hundred divine powers condensed to form a ‘Secondary Enhanced Yin Soldier Divine Scroll’, which flew out of the “Divine Realm” and merged into Liao Xiuer’s body.

Then——

The ten powers condensed into a “Reinforced Yin Soldier Divine Scroll”, flew out of the “Divine Realm” and merged into Li Youtang’s body.

Suddenly——

The Yin energy in Liao Xiuer’s body was so strong that she went straight from the upper level of the second order, crossed the limit of the second order, and was promoted to the lower level of the third order!

He became the second third-level fighter in Sihai Village, besides the temple keeper Li Youming.

And Li Youtang was naturally promoted to the second level.

“Thank you, Lord Zhangyue, for your gift!”

The two men knelt on the ground and spoke devoutly.

They were all happy in their hearts.

after all–

The strength has been greatly improved, who wouldn’t be happy?

Zhao Jiuyuan, who vaguely saw this scene, became numb.

A lower-level third-order being was born just like that?

Then what was the point of me practicing hard for fifty or sixty years to become a great martial artist at the middle level of the third rank?
