Cultivation! My Augmented Statuses Have Unlimited Duration - Chapter 481

The souls pass slowly through the Gate of Hell.

The road to the Yellow Spring is long and winding.

The water of the River of Forgetfulness is clear and clean.

What can one do standing on the Bridge of Helplessness?

The Meng Po Soup tastes bland and flavorless.

The heartless stone carves three lifetimes.

Looking at the mortal world, one views their village standing on a platform.

These seven lines referred to the seven special scenic spots in the ancient Netherworld. They were the Gate of Hell, the Yellow Spring Road, the River of Forgetfulness, the Bridge of Helplessness, the Meng Po Soup, the Three Lifetime Stone, and the Village Viewing Platform.

With this process, he could clearly arrange the billions of souls after the death of the six paths of the Three Realms.

As a faction of the Human Emperor, Fengdu Ghost City’s existence was to seize the Netherworld market as much as possible. It was only targeted at the souls of humans.

They could not let all the souls of the human race fall into the control of the Heavenly Court.

In terms of scale, it was naturally far inferior to the Netherworld.

However, although it was imitating, there were still some functions that it should have.

For example, this Gate of Hell that connected Yin and Yang was the most important method to gather souls.

Originally, if one wanted to come to Fengdu Ghost City, they would usually only be lucky enough to encounter the opening of the Netherworld Illusion in the Ghost King Desolate Ground.

…

If he wanted to connect to this place elsewhere, he had to first create an environment similar to the Netherworld.

First, the concentration of Yin qi had to reach the standard. Then, there had to be a sufficiently brilliant illusion technique covering it. There had to be a beacon like Daji’s finger bone or the Human Emperor’s finger bone. Finally, he had to communicate with it with the three lifetime stone to succeed.

However, with the Gate of Hell, it was different.

As long as the location was set in advance, it could be opened at night when there was no sun.

Moreover, the Netherworld Illusion and the continent of the Nine Provinces were not two maps that were stuck together. The distance between space was not so absolute.

In other words, the difficulty of connecting two places thousands of miles away to Fengdu Ghost City was not much different.

Just this alone was of great importance to Jiang Li.

For example, his Prosperous Jiang Hong Inn and the Hidden Rock Army had important strongholds in the Great Mountain Region, Phoenix Sun City, the Rock Mountain Range, the Mechanism City, the Ten Directions Region, and even the Dragon Transformation Island.

The journey between them was too far. Although it was convenient to travel in the cultivation world and their speed was not slow, it was definitely not safe along the way.

The rogue cultivators who blocked the way and the demons in the mountains needed a lot of manpower and time to open and maintain a safe passage.

As far as the Great Mountain Alliance was concerned, they could at most maintain the smooth passage of one of the channels.

Therefore, the transportation of supplies between the few strongholds had always been a huge problem.

This was especially true for the ghosts collected by the Prosperous Jiang Hong Inn. They often suffered huge losses because of dragging it out for too long.

Now, Jiang Li could completely use this Fengdu Ghost City as the headquarters and use the Gate of Hell to connect to various places.

At that time, a thousand miles would become a short distance, allowing him to easily control the various locations.

In addition, with the convenient Gate of Hell, Jiang Li could stay in Fengdu City permanently and use this as the frontline to explore the current Netherworld.

Jiang Li had been coveting the Back Yin Mountain that separated Yin-Yang for a long time, as well as the Nine Nether Wood’s main body, one of the ten Connate Spiritual Roots.

With this place as a springboard and recruiting more native ghosts, he could finally officially explore.

Jiang Li focused on studying the huge gate that appeared in front of him.

Qin Shuman, who had just taken over Fengdu City and was refining a large amount of Meng Po soup to cleanse the memories of the disciples of the Beast Frenzy Sect, floated in from outside the hall.

“Young Master, there’s a flood outside the city. The Drowned Ghost King is attacking with a million water ghosts.”

“They’re challenging us under the city.”

Although she said that the Ghost King had attacked, Qin Shuman did not have any fear. With the enhancement of tens of millions of ghost soldiers, she was enough to resist ordinary Ghost Kings.

Jiang Li was not surprised by this.

Fengdu Ghost City had always been a place that Ghost Kings had to fight for. Without the deterrence of the original four Ghost Kings, there would naturally be new Ghost Kings attacking.

There would be many more such things in the future. It could be considered a wave that could allow him to quickly expand his faction’s benefits.

The huge Ghost City was lacking manpower, so Jiang Li did not reject anyone.

“There’s still a moat needed around the city. Do you think those water ghosts can be used?”

The City Lord’s stone monument flashed, and Jiang Li had already appeared on the top of Fengdu City. He waved his hand and released the Ghost Lantern Fire Snake before pouncing towards the Drowned Ghost King that was approaching on the waves.

…

Several months passed quickly.

In a dense forest at the edge of the Eastern Region of the Azure Cloud Continent.

Three figures were moving quickly along the ground.

The person in the lead wore an apricot-yellow Daoist robe and carried a peachwood sword on his back. He held an eight-sided compass in his hand and every step he took was in the direction of the seven stars.

He was clearly running on the ground, but his speed was not inferior to flying on his artifact. It could be seen that his movement technique was exquisite.

As for the two people behind him, one was fat and the other was thin. In terms of cultivation, they were far inferior to the former. Even if there was a talisman stuck to each of their legs, they were so tired that they were panting and sweating profusely.

“Master! Master! I can’t take it anymore. Let’s rest… let’s rest for a while.”

The fat disciple could not help but speak, but as soon as he spoke, his aura leaked out, and his footsteps became chaotic. After taking a few more steps, he directly fell to the ground.

The high-speed inertia pushed him forward. After tumbling and crashing into more than ten trees, he successfully rushed out of the forest and fell on the official road of a mortal country.

“Sigh, Senior Brother, you’re really useless. Did you secretly ‘fight’ with Xiao Yu again last night?”

“A female ghost is harmful to the body. Look, your legs are soft now. Young people have to restrain themselves.”

The thin Daoist priest also jumped out of the forest. After tearing off the talisman paper on his feet, he helped the fat Daoist priest up.
