Hell Ancient City, Immortal Slaughtering Grand Array
Third level, fourth level, fifth level… fourteenth level…
The fifteenth level of Hell, Dismemberment Hell. Those who dug up graves and robbed tombs would, after death, be sent to Dismemberment Hell to undergo dismemberment punishment—death by a thousand cuts.
Su Yu led his men all the way to the fifteenth level of Hell. Countless ghosts had been released by them. After running for so long, Su Yu thought that the Heavenly Court was probably already frantic with overwork.
Just as Su Yu had expected, the entire Heavenly Court was in an uproar. Tens of millions of ghosts had escaped from the Netherworld and could be seen everywhere throughout the Immortal Realm and the mortal world. The Immortal Realm was still manageable, but the mortal world had descended into complete chaos. Although these ghosts did not attack anyone, people were still only human. The moment they saw ghosts, they panicked on their own.
The Immortal Realm could only immediately dispatch immortal soldiers to capture those ghosts. But the Heavenly Court only had around ten million immortal soldiers, while the ghosts numbered several times that. The soldiers were driven half-mad from exhaustion.
Heavenly Court Imperial Study
The Jade Emperor spoke to the empty air. "Why did you insist on dragging me into dealing with Su Yu?"
A voice suddenly rang out from the air.
"Don’t you understand? His talent is far too monstrous. It won’t be long before his strength surpasses ours. What if he tries to seize our positions then? And the three thousand top-grade magic treasures he has revealed all prove that he is no ordinary man!"
"This time, in the Eighteenth Level of Hell, I will use your Heavenly Court’s Four Immortal Slaughtering Swords together with Buddhism’s supreme treasure, a relic containing a million years of Buddhist power, to set up the Immortal Slaughtering Grand Array. We must kill Su Yu and his men! As agreed, once this is done, half the magic treasures will be yours!"
The Jade Emperor grew excited upon hearing about the three thousand top-grade magic treasures. Just thinking that he would soon obtain fifteen hundred sets of top-grade magic treasures made him too excited to contain himself.
The farther down they went, the larger Hell became. The fifteenth level of Hell was already as large as two major border cities. A great city stood in the distance, while the prisoners being punished were outside it. Cang Nan and the others swiftly rushed forward and dealt with everything.
City Gate
The gates of this great city were shut. The gates of the ancient cities in the lower three levels of Hell were generally kept closed. Unless newcomers arrived, they were usually never opened. This was to prevent the prisoners from escaping, and opening the gates normally required a written order.
But Su Yu and his men had no written order. Su Yu simply threw a punch. With the Power Stone empowering his fist, its force could have blown up the entire ancient city, let alone opened a gate.
Boom!
Bang!
A tremendous crash rang out. The people inside the ancient city jumped in fright and all looked toward the City Gate. Su Yu appeared before them and said with a smile, "Everyone, you are free."
Then came the sixteenth and seventeenth levels. Just as before, Su Yu smashed apart the City Gate with one punch to draw everyone’s attention, then said, "Everyone, you are free." This time, all those former immortals and Buddhists escaped as well. The Immortal Realm and mortal world became even more chaotic, since they still possessed some cultivation.
The Eighteenth Level of Hell was the final level. After Cang Nan and the others killed the minor ghosts around the perimeter and released all the prisoners, they headed inward.
The Eighteenth Level of Hell contained a tower. Inside were immortals and demons who had committed serious crimes. They did not suffer punishment, but every one of them had their collarbones locked. Each could only remain in their own twenty-seven-cubic-meter room until their soul scattered and spirit dissipated.
Outside the tower, Su Yu looked at Cang Nan and the others. "Come on, let’s go in. Once we’re inside, release everyone!"
After saying that, they all entered. Inside the tower, all the imprisoned people looked toward the newcomers. Suddenly, some people began shouting, "General! General! Brothers!"
Su Yu and the others immediately looked toward the voices. On the second floor, more than three thousand of Su Yu’s subordinates were imprisoned together. Cang Nan immediately reached the second floor and split the gate apart with one sweep of his spear. Since these people had only recently been sent here, their collarbones had not yet been locked.
The other Silver Dragon warriors immediately began freeing the rest. There were not as many people here as above. Excluding Su Yu’s subordinates, there were only around a thousand others.
All of them clasped their fists toward Su Yu. "Brother, we will certainly repay today’s great kindness someday!"
Su Yu smiled. "It’s fine if you don’t repay me. You should leave quickly. It won’t be good if people from the Heavenly Court arrive."
"Then we shall take our leave first." With that, they immediately departed.
"Haha! This old man is finally free!" After leaving the tower, they all shouted excitedly.
Su Yu looked at the others. "Let’s leave too. Once we return to the border, you can revive after returning to your own bodies."
They nodded excitedly. No one wanted to die, and they were no exception.
Just as they headed toward the entrance, an iron gate suddenly descended and blocked it. Golden patterns lit up on the ground, four hundred swords appeared around Su Yu and the others, and a Buddha statue flickered into view above them.
Su Yu smiled faintly. "So this is where you were waiting for me. These are the Four Immortal Slaughtering Swords… Such powerful Buddhist force. You really were generous with your investment."
Su Yu looked at the Four Immortal Slaughtering Swords around them and the relic above his head, his gaze gradually turning cold. He looked at Cang Nan and the others. "Do you remember the formation I taught you before? Set it up first. Protect the other brothers. I’ll go test the Four Immortal Slaughtering Swords and Buddhism’s relic!"
Cang Nan and the others immediately said, "General, be careful. If you cannot win, make sure to return to the formation."
Su Yu said with a smile, "Don’t worry. There is still no power in this world capable of harming me."
After saying that, Su Yu flew into the air, while Cang Nan and the others began setting up the formation.
This formation was called the Silver Dragon Grand Array. It was formed using the three thousand Silver Dragon Battle Armors and Dragongallbladder Bright Silver Spears they wore. The formation could be used for defense or attack.
In defensive mode, even a Taiyi Golden Immortal could not easily break it. In offensive mode, it could unleash a full-force strike from a Taiyi True Immortal. That was the power of three thousand top-grade high-level magic treasures combined.
After Cang Nan and the others set up the formation, a silver dragon appeared and circled around them. The person hiding in the shadows grew curious upon seeing it and had one sword shoot toward Cang Nan and the others.
Clang!
The Immortal Slaughtering Sword struck the Silver Dragon Grand Array, yet the formation did not budge. The person in the shadows was so shocked that he could not speak. The Immortal Slaughtering Sword was an extraordinarily powerful magic treasure, yet this formation remained completely unmoved after being struck.
Su Yu said, "I don’t know whether you’re that old Jade Emperor or some bald western monk, but since you have attacked me, be prepared to pay a price!"
A voice rang out in the air. "How arrogant. You are merely a puny Great Luo Golden Immortal. What gives you the right to speak to me like that?"
