NOVPUBChapter 1177: Chapter 961: A Chill in the Heart! Chapter 1177: Chapter 961: A Chill in the Heart! “How audacious!”
Just then, a voice like thunderous rage sounded, shouting furiously.
“Boom!”
A powerful force descended from the sky, swiftly enveloping the young man’s body, immediately sending him flying backward. At that moment, the Domain Power the young man had just unleashed hadn’t even reached Lin Yun yet, and it dissipated instantly.
“What?”
“Lord Yama… has been sent flying by a stronger presence…”
The Bronze Bull and the other Ghost Practitioners watched the scene, all of them shocked.
They couldn’t believe it. How could Lord Yama, such a formidable being, be sent flying by another? And how fearsome must the strength of the one who sent Lord Yama flying be?
“Could it be a surprise attack…”
“It must be so…”
“Is it because they covet the Reincarnation Flower in Lord Yama’s possession?”
“What should we do?”
In an instant, countless thoughts arose in the minds of the Bronze Bull and the other Ghost Practitioners, along with a sense of dread.
Even if it was a surprise and the true strength of the adversary wasn’t much greater than Lord Yama’s, the fact that they could strike so unexpectedly meant their power must be terrifying nevertheless.
As the saying goes, when deities fight, mortals suffer. What if Lord Yama and the other party start fighting, what should these ordinary Ghost Practitioners, with their mediocre strength, do? Run? Or not run?
Run? But what about the Reincarnation Flower? Wouldn’t it be a wasted effort? Besides, would Lord Yama be angry? Would he retaliate against them afterward? Furthermore, if they run now, can they escape? Or would it draw the attention of this newly emerged strong entity, who might decide to strike them down first?
They didn’t think that if this terrifyingly powerful new entity decided to deal with them, Lord Yama would bother to intervene on their behalf. Perhaps, in order to save the rewards he had to give them for presenting the Reincarnation Flower, he might actually prefer them to die accidentally, thus avoiding any mental burden.
This scenario was not impossible.
All these thoughts made the Ghost Practitioners feel as though they were treading on a knife-edge above a sea of fire, unsure of what to do, caught in a dilemma.
These thoughts of the Ghost Practitioners occurred in just an instant. As they looked up, they also saw the new powerful entity.
What kind of man was he?
Just standing there, without even releasing an aura, he gave off a boundless and majestic presence that made them dread him, causing an involuntary shiver in their hearts.
“Who… who is this mighty entity?”
“His strength… is likely even greater than Lord Yama’s!”
“I heard that there are ten Yamas in the Netherworld, each an unparalleled mighty entity; could he be another Lord Yama?”
The Bronze Bull and the other Ghost Practitioners were internally shaken. This new powerful figure, without even showing his aura, seemed much more formidable than the Lord Yama they had met.
“This…”
Xiao Chong and Emma White were extremely anxious for Lin Yun, and both were about to release their Domain Power to help him withstand Lord Yama’s Domain Power, just like they had done previously in the Spirit World—when they combined their Domain Powers together to resist a stronger entity’s suppression.
However, before Xiao Chong and Emma White could release their Domain Power, this scene unfolded, leaving them deeply shocked and at a loss as to what had just happened.
In their view, that Lord Yama was one of the pinnacle powerhouses in the entire Netherworld; who would dare to make a move against him?
“The… The Tri-Eyed Emperor…”
Not only were the Bronze Bull and the other Ghost Practitioners, as well as Xiao Chong and Emma White, deeply shaken, but that Lord Yama was also beyond shocked as he stuttered while looking at the newly appeared formidable figure.
The Tri-Eyed Emperor!
It was actually the Tri-Eyed Emperor!
Initially, the Tri-Eyed Emperor was discreetly considered the number one strongest in the Netherworld, and with his status as the Lord of the 36th Layered Heaven, both his standing and strength far surpassed that of this particular Yama among the Ten.
If at that time, the Tri-Eyed Emperor had made a move against him, he had no confidence he could have withstood the attack.
Back then, the Tri-Eyed Emperor seemed like an unapproachable existence, someone not to be crossed. 𝖓𝔬𝔳𝔭𝔲𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
Later, the most mysterious among the Nine Emperors, the Blood Emperor, appeared and proved with facts that he was the undoubted number one powerhouse in the Netherworld. With his arrival, he successively broke through nine new layers in New Layered Heaven, causing the entire Netherworld to undergo an earth-shattering transformation.
Such strength, such talent—significantly surpassing the Tri-Eyed Emperor, who many Ghost Practitioners used to call the strongest in the Netherworld.
However, the status of the Tri-Eyed Emperor wasn’t diminished but rose even higher.
For some reason, the Tri-Eyed Emperor became the most valued Ghost Practitioner by the Blood Emperor, and it was said that under the Blood Emperor’s intensive cultivation, the Tri-Eyed Emperor’s strength soared like a rocket. Many Peer Saint Kings combined were not the Tri-Eyed Emperor’s match.
If facing an ordinary Peer Saint King, the Tri-Eyed Emperor could even instantly kill with a single move.
What did that signify?
None among their so-called Ten Yamas had reached the Peak Saint King Realm!
He was considered quite formidable among the Ten Yamas, merely an upper-class Saint King. And that meant, facing the current Tri-Eyed Emperor, he might likely not withstand even a single move!
The young man was internally shocked, not doubting this at all, as he had seen the Tri-Eyed Emperor before. But at that time, the Tri-Eyed Emperor didn’t exude the aura he did now!
From the current demeanor of the Tri-Eyed Emperor, it was evident that his strength had vastly increased!
