The Emperor of the Underworld was extremely familiar with Qin Chen's aura. Although the figures before him were incredibly blurry, he immediately recognized that the leading figure among them was indeed Qin Chen.
Besides him, there stood a dark figure exuding a chilling aura, which the Emperor of the Underworld could easily guess was the Little Demon Prodigy without even needing to look closely.
As for the other aura, it should belong to the Prison Dragon Great Emperor. In front of the three auras, there were two considerably weak auras.
Who could these two auras belong to?
The Emperor of the Underworld squinted his eyes and examined carefully, but the Demon King Great Emperor dared not approach Qin Chen too closely, so the visuals he gleaned were extremely vague. The Emperor of the Underworld could only vaguely see that the other two figures emitted a living world aura, and that aura was exceedingly weak, clearly indicating they were not even at the emperor level, likely just transcendent level experts.
Why would Qin Chen bring two transcendent level beings from the living world into the River of the Undead?
The Emperor of the Underworld felt puzzled, his brow slightly furrowing.
He was well aware that alongside Qin Chen, there were at least the Dark Moon Nether Maiden and the Emperor of Beginning Charm, both of whom were powerful emperor level experts. If he needed assistance, he could simply summon them; there was no need to bring in two transcendent beings from the living world.
Moreover, the power within the River of the Undead was exceptionally terrifying; typically, transcendent beings could not survive deep within this river. What was Qin Chen's intention in summoning them?
Not only was the Emperor of the Underworld perplexed, but the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor and others also had keen insights. Although they could not clearly see the faces of the individuals in the visuals, they could sense that the two auras in front of Qin Chen were not strong.
Before their confusion could dissipate, they saw several stronger auras land upon one of the weaker figures exuding a living world aura. Then, under the guidance of that massive yet weak figure, they plunged into the Undead Whirlpool.
The visuals abruptly ended at this point.
All the emperors present were stunned by the scene they had witnessed.
"Did you see that? Just now, wasn't that one weak figure that wasn’t even emperor level taking the others into the Undead Whirlpool?"
One of the emperors murmured.
That Undead Whirlpool was a place even late-stage emperor level ghost cultivators did not dare to enter easily. Yet, in the scene, there was actually a living world shadow that wasn’t even emperor level pulling others in, which left everyone in disbelief. Many emperors even couldn’t help but rub their eyes.
"Demon King Great Emperor, is this visual real?" one emperor questioned incredulously.
"Of course it’s real. If you don’t believe me, you can verify it," the Demon King Great Emperor hurriedly replied.
There was no need for verification; the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor and others knew that the visuals were undoubtedly real. Before them, the Demon King Great Emperor could not fabricate any false images.
The Emperor of Hidden Darkness spoke up, "At that time, I was in closed-door meditation. After the Demon King Great Emperor found me, he showed me this image, and I immediately recognized it as the living world person who brought the Emperor of the Underworld back to the Underworld. That’s why I rushed to Yellow Spring Mountain to find all of you…"
The Demon King Great Emperor nodded, "The Emperor of Hidden Darkness is now stationed at the River of the Undead. The previous visuals were too bizarre. Although I have some enmity with the Emperor of Hidden Darkness, facing such a major matter, I naturally set aside our grudge and showed it to him at the first opportunity."
Everyone nodded in understanding. The Emperor of Hidden Darkness was well-regarded in the Underworld, and the only person who had any conflict with him was the Demon King Great Emperor. It was rumored that in ancient times, the Emperor of Hidden Darkness had a romantic connection with a female emperor ghost cultivator, but was ultimately snatched away by the Demon King Great Emperor. The Emperor of Hidden Darkness had once pursued the Demon King Great Emperor until they reached a truce through the mediation of the Underworld Dark Moon Empress.
