Hell Emperor

The vast aura belonging to the judge made the faces of the ghosts change with shock.

If caught by the judge, not to mention re-entering the reincarnation, the only end result would be that his soul would be scattered, which would frighten the ghosts.

The ghosts didn't even dare to delay for a moment, and jumped into the rushing underworld one after another.

The spring water is warm and retains the vast spiritual power of the Burning Sea Talisman. The turbid yellow spring water seems to have a unique magic power, and the resistance is far more violent than ordinary rivers.

Ghosts with higher realms can still overcome resistance and swim forward slowly, but those with lower realms are not so lucky.

Jumping into the underworld, Ye Jie felt that his whole body was sinking rapidly. No matter how hard he struggled and swung his arms, he could not break free from this terrible shackles.

Completely submerged in the yellow spring water, Ye Jie also had dream-like hallucinations in front of his eyes. One of the great effects of yellow spring water is to lure souls into dreams and soak them in it, making it difficult for ghosts to distinguish between reality and illusion. If they are not careful, they will sink forever.

Ye Jie opened his mouth, but no sound came out. The turbid yellow spring water kept pouring into his mouth and nose, and his figure was falling into the abyss little by little.

Suddenly, a strong arm grabbed Ye Jie's collar and pulled him out of the water.

When Ye Jie came out of the water, he felt lucky to have survived the disaster. He looked carefully and saw that it was Li Ba who pulled him out of danger.

"Ye Jie, wake up quickly! Damn it, those white ghosts have swam far away. If this continues, we will be left far behind. It will be terrible if the judge catches us!"

Seeing Ye Jie's dazed expression, Li Ba shouted angrily.

Ye Jie came back to his senses and looked in the direction of Naihe Bridge. He could only see the backs of the strange ghosts.

"You're right...we need to move faster!"

Ye Jie took a deep breath and knew that time was running out, so he headed forward with Li Ba.

Due to his lower rank and weak soul, Ye Jie could not bear the weight of the Yellow Spring water, as if there was a mountain peak pressing on his shoulders, and his speed was much slower than other ghosts.

Seeing that he was slowing down Li Ba, Ye Jie's face darkened: "I can't cross the underworld. With my strength, it's already the limit here... The judge is coming, otherwise, you'd better leave me alone." , Go to Naihe Bridge first, the souls of the people in Lijia Village are still waiting for you to send them to reincarnation."

Hearing Ye Jie's frustrated words, Li Ba just glared at him: "Huh, what are you talking about? We came here together, so naturally we have to go back together!"

Ye Jie's expression trembled and he remained silent.

Ahead, the outline of Naihe Bridge became clearer and clearer, and the strange ghosts looked overjoyed:

"The road to reincarnation is just ahead! As long as I work harder, I can re-enter the reincarnation!"

"It would be nice if it could be faster..."

"Wait...what is that?"

Just as the White Walkers were rejoicing, a cry of surprise interrupted their joy.

But he saw a tall figure standing on the river in front of him. He was wearing a dark official uniform and walking on the river. Under the cover of darkness, his figure was difficult to detect, as if he was integrated with the Naihe Bridge behind him.

Seeing that man, the smiles on the faces of the alien ghosts froze, and what followed was heartfelt fear:

"It's Judge Zhang among the four great judges!"

"I knew something was wrong. We had no chance of winning against the judge."

"This is bad..."

The arrival of the Judge can frighten the White Walkers greatly. His thick figure is like an insurmountable chasm, preventing them from ever touching the road to reincarnation.

Looking at the panicked ghosts, Judge Zhang looked solemnly: "I knew that the ghosts who came to force the Naihe Bridge must be under the instructions of Tianxuan Palace. Are you planning to cross the underworld? This is not a wise move, and neither should you. No matter what kind of reincarnation you have entered, it is better to join the Guangwang Palace and let your majesty control you."

Sensing the unkindness in the judge's words, even Ye Jie, who was behind him, felt something bad in his heart: "It's terrible now, with the judge blocking me, the front may be dangerous... Not only that, under the judge's suppression "Hey, even if we want to swim back to the shore to escape, we probably won't be able to do it."

Li Ba looked anxious: "Then what should we do now? Ye Jie, think of a solution quickly!"

Ye Jie took a deep breath: "I don't know... not all problems have solutions. The matter has reached this point, and it is useless to say anything. All we can do is give it a try. Even the judge cannot Dare to board the Naihe Bridge where there is no return. As long as we can escape there, we will be safe."

Realizing the determination in Ye Jie's words, Li Ba felt awe-inspiring. The judge would definitely not let go of the two people who betrayed the Guangwang Palace. The two people would inevitably become the key targets. The only way to survive was on the Naihe Bridge.

The appearance of the judge made the ghosts hesitate to come forward. They were floating in the river with despairing expressions.

Ye Jie shouted to the ghosts: "The road to reincarnation is ahead. Are you going to back down at this time? As long as you can take a step further, you can be completely freed from the torture of the ghosts. Although the judge is strong, there is only one person. There is no one." If you can't stop us all, why are we still hesitating? Are we going to give up this hard-won opportunity?"

Wang Hu also echoed: "That's right! The judge asked me and the Plague Ghost King, who are the strongest, to stop us. You should take this opportunity to board the Naihe Bridge, and you must move quickly!"

Under the persuasion of the two men, the ghosts regained their courage and swam forward quickly.

The Plague Ghost King lowered his head and drank a large mouthful of yellow spring water. When he raised his head, he spat out a large mouthful of scarlet blood water towards Judge Zhang who was blocking the road ahead.

The blood is mixed with the erosion of the disease. Once it is poured on the body, it will be tortured by the disease, which makes people shudder.

Judge Zhang's expression did not change, and he turned to draw the sword from his waist. The aura of the late fifth level was clearly revealed, and he let out a loud voice: "Eight Directions Soaring Dragon Sword!"

The sharp sword light, like a silver lightning, drew a heart-stopping arc in the air, cutting all the blood spurting out. The force of the sword continued unabated, and the Plague Ghost King behind was also hit hard. .

A cry of pain was heard, and the body of the Plague Ghost King sank into the underworld.

Ye Jie's eyes narrowed. From Judge Zhang's sword, he noticed a slightly familiar aura, which was a sign of the operation of the Long Yuan Jing.

As a confidant of Lord Guangwang, Judge Zhang has also practiced the Dragon Yuan Sutra, and his level is not low. He is much stronger than Ye Jie who has just started. All the spiritual power flowing in his body has been replaced by Long Yuan. With the advanced skills, every time Every move has unparalleled power.

Li Ba looked anxious: "Is this the strength of Judge Zhang... Against him, even if I am in good condition, I will be defeated in an instant. There is no other possibility."

Ye Jie looked around and found a problem: "Wait a minute, where did Wang Hu go? Didn't he say he wanted to delay the judge?"

After being reminded by Ye Jie, Li Ba was stunned. He looked around and soon saw an infuriating scene.

It turned out that Wang Hu said he wanted to delay the judge, but he actually swam faster than any hungry ghost. He swam at the front of the team, actively avoiding the judge, and prepared to board the Naihe Bridge first.

His little movements were naturally noticed by Judge Zhang.

"I'm guarding this place, and no one can think of re-entering reincarnation! Loyalty to His Majesty is what you, the lonely ghosts, should do." Judge Zhang slowly raised his sword, his expression calm and intimidating.

Wang Hu swam forward without looking back. He was getting closer and closer to the Naihe Bridge. He could almost see the lavender haze covering the bridge. He did not dare to slow down for a moment and put all his effort into every swing of his arms.

In order to reenter the reincarnation, Wang Hu tried his best, even if he gave up his companions along the way, even if he ignored the Hungry Ghost King in the ghost prison. All efforts are for the opportunity of reincarnation.

But now, that hope has been completely crushed by the judge's absolute strength.

The sword light swept across, and Wang Hu's huge abdomen was ripped open, like an inflated ball being exploded. After all, he failed to reach the place of reincarnation and fell into the underworld only a few steps away, disappearing into thin air. .

The sword glow continued unabated, and a muffled groan came from under the underworld.

The bubbles surged, and to the surprise of the ghosts, the Plague Ghost King also surfaced at this time. He looked ugly and had a new scar left by the sword light on his body.

Li Ba opened his mouth wide: "What? The Plague Ghost King was hiding in the underworld and pretending to be dead. If he hadn't been swept out by the sword, I wouldn't have noticed it. Didn't they ignore his men?"

Ye Jie's eyes lit up, and the thought in his mind could no longer go away: "When encountering fatal danger, it is normal for each of us to fly away when disaster strikes...Compared to this, I seem to know what to do to avoid the judge's perception. ”

Even Judge Zhang was slightly startled when he saw the Plague Ghost King emerging from the water. Although the shock only lasted for a moment, it was still keenly captured by Ye Jie.

Ye Jie lowered his head. This turbid yellow spring water was what the two of them relied on for their survival.

"The water of the Yellow Spring is not only turbid, but can also obscure the senses. The judge always stands above the water and does not want his robes to get wet. As long as we dive underwater, even the judge will not be able to notice it." Ye Jie whispered.

Li Ba looked happy: "Great, I will tell the news to those strange ghosts."

She was about to move, but was pulled back by Ye Jie. She was slightly stunned, but Ye Jie's calm words came to her ears:

"No...the Yellow Spring water is so sinister and evil that it can even cause hallucinations. The White Walkers didn't want to immerse themselves in it, so no one noticed anything strange. If all the White Walkers knew this method and disappeared from the river, Judge We must be alert, and it will be difficult to deal with it when the time comes, so let those strange ghosts draw the judge's attention for us."

Hearing the meaning behind the words, Li Ba's heart tightened. Ye Jie's method was to use all the strange ghosts as bait. His determination and calmness made Li Ba secretly frightened.

After a while, she finally spoke: "You are right, that is indeed the best choice... without further ado, let's take action now."

She and Ye Jie looked at each other and saw each other's determination. Then they took a deep breath and dived into the underworld together.

Ye Jie had difficulty swimming in the underworld, so she dragged Ye Jie forward. Even though doing so would consume extra energy and slow down the speed, she never gave up.

Above the river, sword energy runs through it. All the White Walkers targeted by the Judge will have a bad end in the end. No one can get close to the Naihe Bridge.

One after another, the alien ghosts flew away and were completely killed by Judge Zhang. He let go of his senses and prepared to refine the remaining alien ghosts into ghost soldiers, but he couldn't help but frown.

He remembered how many swords he had fired, and how many ghosts had died under his sword. However, among them, there were only two crucial beings missing.

He felt something in his heart, turned around suddenly, and looked back, only to see a circle of soul-holding ropes wrapped around the pillars of Naihe Bridge. At the end of the rope, Ye Jie and Li Ba were climbing up quickly, and they were about to climb directly to the bridge. Go to the center.

"You dare!"

Judge Zhang let out a cry, which frightened Ye Jie so much that they quickly sped up their movements.

Ye Jie was in front and stepped onto the center of the bridge first, only to see a burst of silver light coming from the distance. It was the sharp sword light swung by Judge Zhang.

Ye Jie's eyes narrowed, and he pulled hard, almost before the sword light came, and pulled Li Ba to the center of the bridge.

The devastating sword light was about to cut the two people on the bridge in half, but was blocked by an invisible force and was unable to break even half a point.

Judge Zhang glared at the two of them, endless anger bursting out of his eyes, and finally he could only turn his head away and ignore them.

"Scared me……"

Under the light of the sword, Li Ba's hair stood on end. Now that she was finally out of danger, she wiped the cold sweat from her head and couldn't calm down for a long time.

Ye Jie also breathed a sigh of relief: "On the Naihe Bridge, all the disputes have gone away. Even the judge's sword can't break through the obstacles. We are safe, but we have suffered from those strange ghosts..."

Li Ba turned around slightly and saw the lavender mist completely covering the two of them. He couldn't help but feel chills all over his body: "Then now... what should we do? It's obviously those strange ghosts who plan to re-enter reincarnation. How come in the end, instead, Is it us who came to the Naihe Bridge?"

The vast fog shrouded everything on the bridge. Li Ba felt a chill in his heart and was about to retreat, but was firmly blocked by an invisible force. There seemed to be an invisible barrier behind her, and no matter how hard she slapped it, it had no effect.

On the Naihe Bridge, you can only move forward, not back. It is a road with no return. This result frightened Li Ba:

"Oops... I'm here to send the souls of my tribe to reincarnation, but I don't want to enter reincarnation myself. It's all over this time!"

Ye Jie took a deep breath. Although the two of them escaped from the judge, they were not out of danger. It could be said that they had just stepped out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's mouth.

After retreating to no avail, Ye Jie sighed: "Let's go."

"Leave? I won't leave!" Li Ba screamed.

Ye Jie shook his head: "You are also a ghost. Of course you understand the magic of Naihe Bridge. You can't retreat. Then the rest, can't you just go all the way forward?"

Li Ba simply sat on the ground: "This is already the middle of Naihe Bridge. If we go further, we will enter reincarnation! I don't want to enter reincarnation now. Ye Jie, you, think of a way! I can't think of a way. If so, I will sit here forever!”

Ye Jie was helpless and just about to speak, when a gust of wind blew past, mixed with a hint of icy chill, which solidified the surrounding air and dispersed it. In the thick fog ahead, a looming and gloomy ghost suddenly appeared.
