Chapter 2202: If You Can’t Beat ‘Em, Join ‘Em

Hongyu was one thing, but the Dragon King couldn't hand over the underworld’s authority to Zu An!

I don’t want to spend an eternity in that Frozen Hell!

A sea of blood rushed out from beneath the late Fiend Emperor. This was a new power he had obtained after experiencing the torture of climbing a mountain of knives, crossing a sea of flames, and then arriving at an ocean of blood. He felt more powerful than ever before. He had initially planned to save this move as a trump card against Zhao Han or the Dragon King, but now, he had no choice but to use it ahead of time.

He climbed higher and higher into the air as the sea of blood beneath him formed a tremendous ocean wave. Many sinister ghosts appeared at his side, preparing to fight alongside him. At the same time, a dusky sun rose behind him. His domain had once been a golden sun, but this was what it looked like now after being influenced by the underworld. Combined, the dark sun and the sea of blood formed a new domain. He could sense that he was much stronger now than when he was alive.

Zu An gave the technique a look.

Big sis Yun’s domain also seems to be a blood sea, but hers is much prettier. I wonder if this underworld blood sea is useful for big sis Yun at all. If it is, should I bring her over here to take a look around?

Zhao Han also spread his palms. Coundless thin ghost skins danced through the air, every sheet looking like a complete ghost. Of course, there was only skin, without any meat inside. The ghost skins flappeda round like bats. They cackled sinisterly and looked extremely malicious, as if they were waiting for any opportunities to devour the blood essence of their enemies and turn them into ghost skins like themselves. This was a new skill he had comprehended in the Skin Flaying Hell. Initially, he'd had the same idea as the late Fiend Emperor, thinking of saving it for a nice surprise later at a crucial moment. But right now, dealing with Zu An was a more pressing matter.

When the Dragon King saw that the skills were getting more and more stunning, he cursed, “They’re all sneaky foxes!”

The temperature around him suddenly dropped. Hell ice spread in all directions, so cold that it seemed as if it could even freeze the air itself. It didn’t fall behind the other two’s skills at all. But he didn’t feel good about the situation at all, because he had revealed his skill immediately earlier. How simple-minded did that make him look?

When he saw the three powerful warriors’ Blood Sea Hell, Skin-Flaying Hell, and Frozen Hell come at him, Zu An only released a soft sigh.

The late Fiend Emperor had an evil grin as he exclaimed,. “Do you now know fear? I’m not going to kill you so easily; instead, I'll submerge you in the sea of blood. Only after you’ve experienced the torment I endured all these years will I be satisfied!”

Zu An was stronger than he had imagined, but what kind of strength did the three of them combined represent? They had been the strongest beings in the world when they were alive, and all of them had obtained new powers now. When the three of them allied together, this little bastard would have no choice but to accept his defeat!

Zhao Han sneered. “Don’t be careless. He might still have other strange skills.”

For some reason, when he recalled Zu An’s various small tricks, he felt a sense of unease. He couldn't shake off the feeling that this kid really was a bit mysterious.

Don’t tell me he still has other trump cards?

Zu An finally spoke. “When we fought in the past, you were indeed stronger than me, so I could only rely on those skills to preserve my life. But now, why would I need to use any tricks in order to win?”

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly flew into the sky. Ripples appeared behind him, and some kind of power emanated from them.

“No, you can’t let him use that ability!” The late Fiend Emperor’s expression changed. This was the skill he had suffered from in the past.

Zhao Han and the Dragon King were both peak experts themselves. They didn’t need him to remind them and attacked at the same time.

Ghost skins concealed a world-eradicating fist, while a several-hundred-meter long dragon condensed from ice, and a Golden Crow image inside a surging sea of blood appeared; they arrived in front of Zu An at almost the same time.

The endless creatures watching the fight cursed them for being shameless. It was clearly a battle to become the sovereign of the underworld, and yet these three were actually teaming up against a single person! Even if they won this way, how could they claim to be the strongest?

Within Tragedy City, a headless ghost was cursing the most bitterly of all. He almost looked as if he wanted to rush over and help.

The soul next to him laughed and chided him. “Come on, your bit of cultivation can’t even take on a single ghost skin over there.”

“They're choosing the most powerful being in the underworld, and yet their actions don’t carry the proper bearing of the strongest at all! Are you willing to let people like this become your big boss?”

“Even if we don’t acknowledge it, what can we do? Cultivation isn’t the only kind of power; wits are a sort of power as well. The fact that that youngster couldn't promptly recruit allies and was surrounded means he's still lacking in this aspect.”

...

Similar conversations were taking place in every corner of the underworld. Below the Bridge of Helplessness, a woman was clenching her hands nervously. It was hard for her to even keep watching the broadcast in the air. She could only mutter to herself, “Ah Zu, you must win!”

Just then, shouts of alarm suddenly filled the air around her. She quickly looked up. Shocking developments had taken place in the arena!

Zu An’s expression turned cold. “You may have used the power of your respective Hells, but have you forgotten which region I became the king of?!”

As soon as he spoke, streaks of sword energy appeared behind him. The Rune Weapon Chart and Blue Luan Sword Formation joined together. However, the sword energy contained within this time was extremely special. The swords were no longer just projections; instead, they released a reddish-yellow glimmer. Every single sword seemed to contain the power of a divine weapon.

Just a second before, the three opponents had been feelingconfident, but now, their eyes narrowed rapidly. They all cried out, “Naihe Oblivion River! It’s the river water!”

In order to clash with the sword energy formed from Naihe Oblivion River water, the three individuals released all manner of techniques. The sword energy seemed to shatter as soon as they made contact, but they didn’t feel happy about that at all.

That was because the swords turned into endless droplets, and every single droplet became a sword!

Every single drop of Naihe Oblivion Water had the power to wash away the essence of all living things. The malicious ghost skins began screaming in panic, but when they made contact with the water droplets, their expressions immediately turned blank and fell to the ground. Afterward, struggling figures emerged from the ghost skins and were sucked into the nearby Naihe Oblivion River.

The ghosts that had been valiantly and vigorously intending to rip the enemy to shreds immediately screamed for their lives as they fled. Even though being soaked in the sea of blood was painful, for better or for worse, they would still be able to maintain their awareness. After ages passed and their wrongdoings were cleansed, they would at least have the chance to be reincarnated. But if they fell into that river, they would forever become idiot water ghosts. At that point, everything would be over.

Unfortunately, the rain covered everything!

When the Naihe Oblivion water droplets landed in the sea of blood, the powerful sea immediately became turbid. The entire thing was clearly being transformed into Naihe Oblivion Water.

If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em!

No matter how much of the blood sea there was, it all became Naihe Oblivion Water in the end. The three opponents’ skills were annihilated, and the water continued to attack them.

The Dragon King cursed, “Fiend Emperor, you motherf*cker! Are you trying to help the enemy with your damned skill?!”

The late Fiend Emperor’s expression was completely grim too. “Screw you! What right do you have to criticize me? If it wasn’t for your Crown of the Ocean Deity, would he be able to control this damn river?!”

The Dragon King was stunned. “That’s impossible... The Crown of the Ocean Deity shouldn’t be able to do such a thing. How can the Naihe Oblivion River be controlled so easily?”

The Crown of the Ocean Deity had been in his possession for a long time, so he naturally knew that the ability of the crown definitely couldn't control the Naihe Oblivion River.

However, the three of them couldn't be bothered with figuring out that question. They could only do their best, using all of their skills to protect themselves against the endless Naihe Oblivion River water droplets. After being in the underworld for all this time, they naturally knew that making contact with even a single drop of water would contaminate their very souls, turning them into water ghosts.

Unfortunately, the water could corrode anything. One layer after another, their defenses were melted.

The Dragon King was the first to give in, pleading, “Brother Zu, I was wrong! I won’t argue about you and Hongyu anymore! My voice was a bit too loud before, but I completely acknowledge you now. You are the one who ought to become the lord of the underworld!”
