After being adopted by a tiger demon, I swept through the strange and chaotic world

Zhang Sanfeng produced three incense sticks from somewhere, lit them with a flick of his fingertips, threw them out casually, and stuck them into the ground.

Then Zhang Sanfeng threw a square piece of pork on the ground, then he held the sword horizontally, made a sword gesture with his other hand, and muttered:

"Taishang Laojun, teach me to summon souls. Colorful clouds from all directions are gathering at my sect. Enter the Netherworld early and see the real soul as soon as possible. I offer you incense and pray that you will appear, as soon as the law commands!"

As Zhang Sanfeng finished his words, the three incense sticks in front of him burned rapidly, and in a flash, they disappeared along with the piece of pork.

Then two clouds of smoke, one white and one black, floated out from the abyss.

The smoke gradually kneaded and changed, and finally transformed into two figures.

The white figure wore a white hat with the four big characters "Meet Wealth in Life" written on it, stuck out a long tongue, and held a white paper umbrella in his hand.

The black figure wore a black hat with the four big characters "天下太平" written on it. He was broad and fat, short in stature, holding a black compass in one hand and a black bell in the other.

Li Xiao was stunned when he saw this.

"Black... Black and White Impermanence?"

The two men turned their heads and looked at Li Xiao, with a hint of surprise in their eyes.

Zhang Sanfeng bowed slightly.

"Seventh Master, Eighth Master, how are you?"

"Oh, Crazy Master, you are embarrassing us two. How can we be worthy of being called Master in front of you? What do you want to summon us for?"

Bai Wuchang said with a smile.

Zhang Sanfeng pointed at Li Xiao and others and said:

"Send them to participate in the trial in the underworld."

"this……"

Bai Wuchang was stunned for a moment, and asked in embarrassment:

"With so many people...I'm afraid it's against the rules..."

Zhang Sanfeng raised his eyebrows and made hand gestures to transmit his voice.

Bai Wuchang didn't know what he heard, his heart was beating wildly, and he looked at Li Xiao as if he had seen a ghost... even though he himself was a ghost...

"Is what Crazy Master said true?"

Zhang Sanfeng gave him a cold and dangerous look.

"Ah, ahem, well, Master Feng, that's not what I meant. Even so... then fine, Master Feng, bringing so many people at once, your incense..."

Bai Wuchang rubbed his fingers.

Zhang Sanfeng nodded, raised his hand and grabbed a handful of incense sticks. He just threw them casually and lit them all.

The Black and White Impermanence looked at each other, and the Black Impermanence turned into a wisp of black smoke and floated towards the abyss again.

Bai Wuchang bowed to Li Xiao, then pointed his left arm towards the abyss as a gesture of invitation.

Li Xiao looked at Zhang Sanfeng, who nodded. Li Xiao then took a deep breath and flew down.

Fang Chaotong and others followed closely behind.

The crack was so deep that one couldn't see one's hand in front of one's face, and even the direction could not be discerned.

Just when Li Xiao was about to stop and determine the direction, a chain came from nowhere and wrapped around Li Xiao.

Bai Wuchang's voice then sounded:

"Don't resist. This is Lao Fan guiding you from below."

Li Xiao only felt that he was traveling through endless darkness, being pulled by the chain. After an unknown amount of time, an extremely faint light appeared in front of him, and then scenery began to appear in Li Xiao's sight.

Li Xiao calmed himself down and looked around.

The first thing that caught my eye was the Black Impermanence who was slowly retracting his chains, followed by the White Impermanence who had just landed.

Behind them was an ancient city that was all dark blue. Above the city gate was a huge plaque with three large characters "City of a Hundred Ghosts" inscribed on it.

Li Xiao felt that he could see clearly only because of his excellent eyesight. In fact, with the dim light around him, it was extremely difficult to see things.

The Black and White Impermanence looked at each other, and Bai Wuchang also stepped out and introduced to everyone:

"This world is the underworld. Since Master Feng asked me to bring you to participate in the underworld trial, we are now at the entrance of the underworld. If you want to explore other places in the underworld, you can do so in the future. Now, let me introduce you to the underworld trial."

Bai Wuchang retracted his long tongue, coughed twice, and said:

"The Underworld is the most powerful force in the underworld, similar to the Heavenly Court in the Heavenly World or the Dynasty in the Mortal World. The difference is that the Underworld is the only organized and orderly force in the underworld. Apart from the Underworld, the underworld is full of wandering ghosts and has no power.

The responsibility of the underworld is to maintain order in the underworld, to guide ghosts from the mortal world and the souls of gods who died suddenly, to allow them to reincarnate, and to punish the guilty. You will understand all this later, and I cannot reveal too much about the content after the trial.

This City of Hundred Ghosts, as the name suggests, has a hundred ghosts in it. It does not mean that there are a hundred ghosts, but a hundred kinds of ghosts. They are all lonely ghosts who did not do enough good deeds in their lifetime to be reincarnated but whose sins are not enough to send them to hell, or they are people who made vows but did not fulfill them and will never be reincarnated. Every time you kill one of them, a corresponding special item will drop.

Different trial levels correspond to different passing requirements. For example, for the clerk level trial, you only need to collect 25 different dropped items to pass, the officer level requires 50, the king level requires 75, and the emperor level requires collecting 100 different items, which means you have to kill at least one ghost of each kind... Oh, and there is also the lowest soul level trial, which only requires collecting one item, that is, killing a ghost, to pass.

Those who pass the clerk-level trial can directly choose to become a minor clerk in the underworld, such as the two of us. There are also the Fourth Master, the Fifth Master, the Second Master, and the Third Master, who all belong to this category.

Those who pass the official trial can serve as officials in the underworld. Officials include the judge, Meng Po, the ferryman, etc. Those who pass the king assessment are very powerful and can serve as the Yama King and rule over a palace.

The Emperor level is a legendary existence. Those who pass the Emperor level trial can become the Ghost Emperor of a region or open their own place in the underworld, become a guest official, obey orders but not announcements, and enjoy great power. Rumor has it..."

Bai Wuchang even revealed a longing look.

"Ahem." Li Xiao coughed lightly and asked:

"Well, then, how do we determine which trial to participate in?"

Bai Wuchang blinked and said with a wry smile:

"Sorry, I'm getting off topic. Ahem, the level of this trial is determined by the Emperor of Fengdu himself. The two of us are responsible for setting up the ceremony. The Emperor's soul will descend to determine your talents and then assign the corresponding trial."

After saying that, Bai Wuchang turned around and looked at Hei Wuchang. The two brothers stood opposite each other and took out their magic weapons at the same time.

Bai Wuchang held a parasol in one hand and a mourning stick in the other; Hei Wuchang held the soul-seeking plate in one hand and gently shook the soul-calming bell with the other.

The two of them chanted spells at the same time, using a language that Li Xiao could not understand.

As a violent wave appeared out of nowhere in the center in front of the two of them, Li Xiao felt that an extremely dangerous aura was rising rapidly.

The aura had no substance, but Li Xiao felt as if he was being held tightly by someone, as if he would die if he moved. Even if he struggled with all his might, he could not create the slightest ripple.

Li Xiao swallowed his saliva, his pupils constricted, and a terrifying shadow slowly condensed in front of him.

The phantom was located above the ghost town, covering the entire ghost town. Li Xiao looked up, but could not even see the other party's face clearly. It was not because the light was too dim, but simply because the other party was just sitting cross-legged there, and his height was at least tens of thousands of feet.

Li Xiao's hair stood on end, but he dared not move.

He felt it truly, that person was just a wisp of soul that had descended!

It was a long time before Li Xiao noticed something was wrong. He saw the man slightly raised his hand. In Li Xiao's perception, the other party seemed to have pointed a finger at his forehead. He could not even resist. He watched helplessly as a ray of blue light shot into the depths of his forehead and then entered his sea of ​​​​soul.

But Li Xiao did not suffer any harm at all. The blue light disappeared immediately after it shot into his sea of ​​soul.

Immediately afterwards, a blue line appeared under Li Xiao's feet. The line slowly outlined and gradually formed a dark blue magic circle.

At the moment the magic circle was formed, a golden beam of light rose from under Li Xiao's feet!

"Gold?! What is this?"

Bai Wuchang's scream was heard not far away. He was so frightened that his tongue stuck out, and a long piece of it dragged on the ground without him noticing anything.

Even the shadow of the King of Fengdu trembled slightly when he saw this scene, causing the light to change drastically.

Only then did Li Xiao realize that the pressure on him had disappeared without him noticing.

He looked back and saw a blue beam of light rising under the feet of Fang Chaotong, who was accompanying him, while the others were mostly green, and two were white.

Although Li Xiao didn't know the levels corresponding to these colors, he could roughly guess based on Fang Chaotong's once-in-a-lifetime talent that blue should be one level higher than green and white. As for which one is higher, green or white, it is hard to say.

The voice of "Emperor Fengdu" sounded at the right time.

"Chang Wu, Ning Jin, talent: middle to lower, soul gift level one try."

"Yu Xin, Gu Miao, Han Yun... Talent: average, granted three tests at the official level."

"Fang Chaotong, talent: above average, granted the fifth official rank test."

Li Xiao's mind raced. According to this statement, the worst among the few had medium to low talent, which should correspond to the talent of a great emperor in the mortal world. In other words, the ceiling of the mortal world can only be the lowest here. The true gods and weaker generals in the divine world can only be regarded as minor officials. People like Fang Chaotong, who were promoted to higher-middle talent by his appointment, should correspond to the powerful generals who were not appointed by him but could create the realm of gods. Then the God King should correspond to Yama Luo in the underworld.

The God Emperor in the God Realm is comparable to the Ghost Emperor like Fengdu Emperor...

"Li Xiao, talent: top-notch, granted...fifteen tests for the Great Emperor!"

"Hmm... hm? What the hell?"

Li Xiao almost cried out in surprise, but fortunately he reacted in time and said the last two words in his heart.

Li Xiao screamed in his heart: [You can't count, right? You added two by two before, from the official level to the lower level, you added fifteen? If you want to kill me, just say so, okay? ]

Li Xiao suspected that the other party was targeting him deliberately because his passing the emperor-level assessment would endanger the other party's status.

“Great, great, great…Emperor? You, you, you, you…”

Bai Wuchang pointed at Li Xiao and gasped heavily, unable to utter a complete sentence.

Even the usually taciturn quail Hei Wuchang opened his mouth wide at this moment, and his hand holding the soul-calming bell kept shaking. The sound of the bell rang out, as if conveying the other party's shock.

"Those who are taking the Great Emperor Trial must collect 101 items in the Hundred Ghosts City before they can pass."

After leaving these words, the shadow of the King of Fengdu gradually dissipated, and the gate of Baigui City, which had been tightly closed, gradually opened to both sides.

After confirming that the opponent's aura had completely dissipated, Li Xiao grabbed Bai Wuchang and asked angrily, "Didn't you say that the Emperor Level Trial requires the collection of 100 items? What do these 101 items mean? Huh? Tell me! There are a total of 100 kinds of ghosts. Where can I find 101 items?"

"Grandpa, Grandpa... Grandpa, please let go first, I will explain it to you slowly."

Li Xiao put the other person down, and his aura was fixed on him with a sinister look in his eyes.

Li Xiao just felt like he was being fooled. This was a blatant targeting! Wasn't this just someone finding fault with him?

Bai Wuchang coughed and fell to the ground. After a long while, he explained:

"It is true that the first level of the Emperor Trial only requires the collection of one hundred items, but... Master, what you have obtained is not the Emperor Trial!"

"Huh? Why not? Could it be a king level?"

"Oh my goodness, listen carefully, it's the Great Emperor level! Great Emperor! Not Emperor!"

"Big...what do you mean? Different?" Li Xiao frowned, not understanding.

Isn’t the Emperor of Fengdu the emperor?

Bai Wuchang glanced at him with a complicated expression, took a deep breath, covered his face and said in a deep voice:

“The Emperor level corresponds to the Five Ghost Emperors and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, who is half a level higher than the Emperor level. Among them, those who pass the Emperor level assessment can become the Five Ghost Emperors, but Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva belongs to the underworld alone. He is the kind who only listens to orders but not instructions, and cannot be replaced.

And the one above that is the actual controller of the underworld..."

Bai Wuchang did not continue, but Li Xiao understood. Fengdu Emperor is an emperor, but not an emperor. He is a great emperor, and his status is higher than that of the Five Ghost Emperors and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. He is the supreme ruler of the entire underworld, or the person who makes the decision and is the supreme controller of the underworld...

[No wonder it’s the fifteenth test… It makes sense, too much so…]

Li Xiao smiled bitterly, feeling mixed emotions and indescribable discomfort.

It seems that passing the Great Emperor Trial can make him the supreme ruler of the underworld, but in fact... even if he were to sit in that position and someone wanted to attack his position, he would find ways to stop them...

For example, in the first level, there are a total of one hundred ghosts, corresponding to one hundred kinds of items, and you are asked to collect one hundred and one kinds. What's the point of that?

[Six hundred and sixty-six, I don’t care about salt anymore. You’re going to kill me in the first level… Is it necessary? Well… Actually it is necessary. ]

Li Xiao thought about it from another perspective. He felt that although the other party's behavior was immoral, it was completely understandable. No one could be so generous. It was just a matter of time. This person was obviously the more direct type...
