Human beings are in a state of deception, and immortality begins with the secret book of origami.

Chapter 388: Flame Ghost, Flame of Vengeance

In the Kingdom of the East Sea, the King of the East Sea is used to being the king and dominating the world, and almost no one dares to provoke him.

He was also used to being superior and used to everyone giving him face.

But now, Mu Lin is here. Mu Lin, who believes that "the emperor must have strong soldiers and horses to rule the country", is here. Naturally, he will not care about the majesty of the royal power, and will not give face to the King of Donghai.

Therefore, he slapped the King of Donghai hard and told him bluntly that there would be a price to pay for offending others, the price of which would be the tragic death of family members and the collapse of the industry.

"If you want to kill me, you can, but since you dare to kill me, you must be prepared for your whole family to die tragically. This is just the beginning!"

Mu Lin's action this time confused the King of Donghai. At the same time, he also caused a fundamental reversal in the King of Donghai's action strategy.

Before this, the King of Donghai always thought about how to kill Mu Lin first.

But now, he had to consider how to protect the safety of his own offspring and the many subordinates who worked for him.

To do this, he needs to allocate a large number of manpower to carry out protection work.

However, the influence of the East Sea Palace is too widespread, there are too many people, and more importantly, Mu Lin is too strong.

Therefore, it is not that he wants to protect people, and those people will not be harmed.

……

In Ronghuo City, there is a fire-attributed mineral vein called Fire Crystal. This Fire Crystal is an excellent additional item for making weapons or armor, and can increase the strength of the army.

For this reason, the King of the East China Sea occupied this place and sent people to carry out large-scale mining.

There were tens of thousands of people sent to mine, and there were also many blacksmiths and refiners who were making weapons and armor here day and night.

This is an important industrial site of the East Sea Palace. In order to protect this place, the King of East Sea built a fortress city here and sent 3,000 soldiers to garrison here, as well as many strong men to guard against riots.

And now, Mu Lin has also come here.

No one knew about his arrival... Even though the King of Donghai knew that Mu Lin would not give him face, he had already asked his subordinates to be vigilant and guard the city tightly. The people in this city also received the order and immediately activated the city defense formation and sent people to patrol continuously, but no one noticed Mu Lin's arrival.

This was a matter of course. After all, Mu Lin did not come from the present world. He opened the Dharma Realm and created the underworld. He was now walking towards this place step by step in the underworld.

Because the underworld is the opposite of the world of the living, everything in Ronghuo City can be found here.

The castle, the patrolmen, and the soul reflections of many miners were all displayed before Mu Lin's eyes... One thing to note is that not all soul reflections look the same.

The souls of monks are tough, like living things. Therefore, the reflections of their souls are extremely clear, just like real people. These reflections are also the most difficult to kill.

Ordinary people have weak souls. In the underworld, their souls are like vague mist, which will disperse with a slight blow.

Of course, Mu Lin had not originally intended to pay attention to the souls of ordinary people.

This time, he came here with the intention of finding the managers and leaders here directly from the underworld and the reincarnation realm, then kill them and disperse the people here.

However, that was Mu Lin’s original idea. After entering the underworld, Mu Lin gave up his previous plan.

He discovered one thing...the situation here was different from that of the Golden God Gate.

In the underworld of the Golden God Gate, Mu Lin felt almost nothing except the opposition between yin and yang.

But here, it's completely different.

There is some red fog here... It's nothing, it's the manifestation of the spirit crystal veins in the underworld. Because they are spiritual objects, they can retain a trace of color in the underworld.

What surprised Mu Lin was that there were countless dark airs everywhere.

This energy was like a dark cloud, covering the entire Ronghuo City. From time to time, hideous and terrifying faces appeared from the dark clouds, roaring and wailing madly.

"This is hatred, resentment... why is it so strong?"

Subconsciously, Mu Lin used soul-binding chains to capture some roaring faces, and used the power of the red spider lily to invade these souls and peek into their memories.

After some investigation, Mu Lin's expression became gloomy, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

"I have always felt that in this feudal era, the descendants of aristocratic families have original sin. I don't have to feel guilty about killing them, but now it seems that I am too kind!"

"They not only deserve to die, but they also deserve to be cut into pieces and fall into hell forever!"

It’s no wonder that Mu Lin was so angry. The situation in Ronghuo City was far beyond his imagination.

……

Fire crystal is a good thing, but unrefined fire crystal is fire poisonous.

This means that no matter whether it is the miners or the refiners, as long as they stay in the veins for a period of time, fire poison will enter their bodies, burning their internal organs and causing unbearable pain.

This defect means that the normal mining of the fire crystal veins is best carried out by monks, and because of the fire poison, monks need regular treatment.

However, although monks are good, they are expensive, extremely expensive.

Few cultivators are willing to do such rough work as mining. Therefore, if the King of the East China Sea wants to find cultivators, he will have to spend countless spirit stones.

The subsequent treatment also required a large amount of spirit stones.

There is no doubt that the King of East China Sea is unwilling to pay for these spirit stones.

Therefore, they found many ordinary people to engage in mining - mining at the risk of their lives.

Of course, the King of Donghai still wanted to save his face, so he did not force the people to work, but instead asked people in prison to come and mine.

However, ordinary people in this era do not have good food to eat, and do not have good treatment and protection. The people in the prison alone cannot support the long-term mining of the fire crystal veins.

Therefore, as expected, the scene happened. As the controller of the rules, the King of Donghai increased the penalties and taxes in several surrounding counties. Those who made minor mistakes or could not pay taxes were also imprisoned and taken to Ronghuo City to mine.

After long-term mining, this place has consumed hundreds of thousands of people.

What made Mu Lin even more angry was that because there were too many deaths, they also recycled the waste, using the blood and souls of those dead people to enchant weapons and armor and sharpen their blades.

——Whenever weapons and armor are produced, some magic cultivators recruited by the King of the East China Sea will push some dying humans directly into the furnace, using their souls and blood to increase the bloody aura of the weapons and armor.

"They treated ordinary people as firewood and tools without mercy... Haha, I have always known that we should not overestimate the humanity of the aristocratic families in the feudal era. They have always regarded themselves as superior people and ordinary people as cattle and horses. They even did not allow the nobles to marry ordinary people, thinking it was a shame."

"But I thought oppression was just that, at most the land was taken away and people were reduced to slavery."

"Now it seems that I have overestimated their humanity."

Mu Lin sighed, no longer feeling the slightest guilt for killing innocent people. He only hated that he had killed too few people.

At the same time, Mu Lin also changed his idea of ​​killing someone and running away.

"I can use these grievances to my advantage..."

Thinking of this, Mu Lin had an idea and gave a city god's throne to the paper figure that ran here.

The status was raised, and the position of God was granted, which raised the upper limit of the paper man. Then, Mu Lin moved his mind again, and a city god temple sat on the dark side of Ronghuo City.

"Come on, come on, endless wronged souls, your god has come... I will be the one to administer justice for you!"

"call……"

Sitting down in the City God Temple, Mu Lin immediately absorbed the endless resentment that had been accumulated in Ronghuo City for decades.

"Kill, kill, kill..."

"Wow, wow, I hate it!"

"I am not guilty, I have not committed any crime, I was wrongly accused..."

"Don't arrest me. I have a mother at home. If I leave, what will happen to my mother..."

“Ouch, it hurts…”

The deaths of hundreds of thousands of people brought about a great deal of resentment. At the same time, these accumulated resentments were accompanied by their painful memories, as well as hatred and murderous thoughts towards the East Sea Palace.

The endless hatred and resentment are enough to change the temperament of an ordinary cultivator and turn him into a madman who only knows how to kill.

At the same time, most of the people here had been tortured by fire poison day and night, and finally died from the burning and refining in the furnace, which made their resentment of death also accompanied by countless anger.

When they entered his body, Mu Lin felt as if his soul was placed on a branding iron, burning with a hissing sound.

Fortunately, Mu Lin is not ordinary. The gift of the divine position makes Mu Lin's soul very tough.

More importantly, Mu Lin did not go against the resentment of the many people who died.

Feeling the endless pain and overwhelming hatred, Mu Lin did not stop them. Instead, he followed their thoughts and said, "You want revenge? You want to kill the culprit who caused your death. You want them to experience the pain you once experienced?"

"Very well, I will do as you wish. Submit to me and follow me. I will lead you in killing and I will avenge you!"

"Kill, kill, kill..."

The sincere acceptance, coupled with the special nature of the City God's throne, allowed Mulin to accommodate hundreds of thousands of resentful souls.

To be honest, the resentment of hundreds of thousands of people, or the resentment of unjust and tragic deaths, makes the amount of resentment very high, so high that it is close to the limit of transcendence.

That is, the souls of the dead, all of them are weak people. The remaining echoes of their souls are extremely weak. There is no main messenger, otherwise, Mu Lin’s clone would never be able to integrate them and incorporate them into his body.

However, despite the many dangers, after taking them into his body, Mu Lin's changes were extremely exaggerated.

First of all, the power of this substitute paper man has reached the level of perfection in transcendence, and is not much different from Mu Lin’s original body.

Of course, Mu Lin’s original soul is pure and has many magical powers, which cannot be compared with this paper man substitute.

In addition to this, Mu Lin's original body holds the map of the true spiritual position, and can strip away the divine position of the split soul with a single thought, causing his foundation to collapse. Therefore, the split soul cannot shake the position of Mu Lin's main soul at all.

Of course, Mu Lin would not do that.

……

"boom!"

In addition to the accumulated resentment of hundreds of thousands of souls, the pain of burning bodies they felt before death and the hatred towards others were also gathered by Mu Lin. Relying on the method and experience of condensing the [Willpower Heart Fire], Mu Lin used these resentful auras and the poison of hellfire to refine a flame of revenge.

This flame is born purely for revenge. The stronger the hatred towards others, the more fiercely this flame burns, and the greater the pain it brings to others.

The numerous grievances and the influence of the flame of revenge also caused Mu Lin's substitute to split its soul and become unable to maintain its human form.

"boom!"

A hundred-meter-tall flaming demon appeared in the underworld.

This demon had flames burning all over his body, and there were countless resentful faces roaring non-stop. It was obviously a vicious ghost - the spirit of vengeance.

"Crash..."

With a stretch of his wrist, a chain burning with flames appeared in the hands of the fire demon from the underworld and wrapped around the fire demon's entire body.

The Chain of Infinite Destiny, due to its splittable nature, has become the standard equipment for Mu Lin's ghost soldiers and demons.

At this moment, this chain is the weapon that Mu Lin prepared for his clone, and it is also a kind of restraint. He is restraining the murderous intent of hundreds of thousands of evil spirits, so that their murderous intent is only directed at those who should be killed, and they cannot kill innocent people indiscriminately.

——The dead evil spirits are indeed miserable, but after death, most of their souls and memories are lost, leaving only pain and resentment. This makes the remaining souls think only of "kill, kill, kill", whether they are guilty or innocent, they want to kill.

This is also the reason why the souls of ordinary people can also turn into evil spirits.

But Mu Lin could not allow such a situation, and therefore, he had to impose restrictions.

Naturally, Mu Lin's restraint caused the many evil spirits in his body to riot.

"Roar!"

"You lied to me..."

"kill……"

The riot of evil spirits caused countless hideous faces to grow on Mu Lin's hundred-meter-tall body of the fire demon. They were roaring in resentment and cursing madly, which also affected Mu Lin's mind, making him kill and destroy everything without restraint.

Fortunately, the restraints of the endless chains were very effective and they could not escape from Mu Lin's body.

At the same time, Mu Lin was also comforting them.

"Stop yelling. I will lead you to revenge and kill people."

"They will personally experience all of your suffering tenfold or a hundredfold..."

Having said this, Mu Lin strode forward and walked towards the center of Ronghuo City. As he walked, he was also looking for the person in charge of Ronghuo City.

It was easy to find. Most of those stationed here were powerful men, and most of the powerful men had bright souls. Soon, Mu Lin found several powerful men, and even a high-level cultivator who had reached the level of transcendence.

What made Mu Lin raise his eyebrows was that these strong men did not separate, but gathered together. Obviously, they in the Yang world also gathered together and discussed something.

"That's good. I don't have to look for them one by one."

And just when Mu Lin found them, the soul reflection of the transcendent master began to shake rapidly.

This was the reflection of the monk's soul that sensed the crisis and was reminding him.

Ji Lie, the guardian of Ronghuo City, received this sudden reminder.

But unfortunately, he knew about the crisis, but he had no idea where it came from, let alone how to defend against it.

"who is it?"
