"Troublesome. Then why did you set up so many before? This ancestor believes there should be no less than dozens of traditional pathways in the Nether Beast Realm, right? The Nether Beast Realm is located so deep in the seabed that the ghost cultivators from the Abandoned Land cannot enter. Setting up so many is purely a waste," said the Ten Thousand Bones Underworld Ancestor with a disdainful pout.
Hearing this, Qin Chen nodded. Along the way, there were indeed many transmission pathways in the seabed.
Although the celestial sea conch was not scattered throughout the seabed's transmission pathways, when he exterminated the Divine Eel Thunder Beast clan earlier, the Black Demon of the Underworld and others arrived so quickly precisely because they came through those transmission pathways. Furthermore, the Nether Beast clan's realm was also shrouded by a spatial transmission array, which must have cost the celestial sea conch a considerable amount of energy.
"My lord, you may not know this, but although our Nether Beast clan holds absolute power in the Dead Sea, there are still some ghost cultivators in the Abandoned Land, like you, who can invade the depths of our Dead Sea and cause great destruction to us, even threatening the realm of our Nether Beast clan," said Black Demon of the Underworld suddenly.
A ghost cultivator can threaten the Nether Beast clan's realm?
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.
Qin Chen frowned slightly, looking towards the Mysterious Ghost Old Demon. Although he had not yet been to the core area of the Abandoned Land, the Abandoned City, he had encountered many masters of the forbidden zones.
Among them, the vast majority were powerful figures like the King of the Forest of the Underworld and the Mysterious Ghost Old Demon, with only the Weary Dragon Ghost Ancestor and the Blood Killer Ghost Ancestor being stronger. The Master of the Graveyard of the God of Death, wielding the scythe of the lord of death, was one of the most formidable masters Qin Chen had ever encountered.
However, even the Master of the Graveyard of the God of Death, in Qin Chen's view, could only hunt some Nether Beasts in the shallow parts of the Dead Sea and would still face danger if they ventured deeper.
Not to mention encountering the Divine Eel Thunder Beast clan, which would be enough to leave them at a loss, let alone threatening the Nether Beast clan's realm.
The Mysterious Ghost Old Demon furrowed his brows as well: "My lord, although the Abandoned Land is powerful and has many strong individuals, very few can withstand the killing intent of the Dead Sea in its depths, let alone threaten the Nether Beast realm."
The Mysterious Ghost Old Demon had fought in the Dead Sea for many years, making him extremely familiar with it.
The strength of the Nether Beasts did not stem from their personal power, but from their location deep in the Dead Sea, where the area was filled with the killing intent of the Dead Sea. Surviving there was quite troublesome for most masters of forbidden zones, let alone posing a threat to the Nether Beast realm.
"My lord, we are not speaking nonsense. Prior to your arrival, there was indeed a ghost cultivator who intruded into the depths of our Dead Sea, committing mass slaughter and even exterminating the lineage of the Luoxiao ghost shrimp within our Nether Beast clan," Black Demon of the Underworld continued.
"This person possesses extremely astonishing power and has even been able to control some of the dead sea power, having intruded into the depths of our Dead Sea several times for slaughter."
"Indeed, it is because of this ghost cultivator that I have spread out transmission pathways throughout the depths of the Dead Sea," the celestial sea conch and other Nether Beasts echoed.
"Exterminating the Luoxiao ghost shrimp lineage? How is that possible?" The Mysterious Ghost Old Demon was shocked, "The Luoxiao ghost shrimp are an extremely powerful clan among the Nether Beasts. Even if we encounter them on the ocean surface, we would have to avoid their edge. What you all are saying could not possibly be the work of a single ghost cultivator but rather the combined efforts of many ghost cultivators in the Abandoned Land, right?"
