The Underworld.
This is where the souls from all realms are gathered.
The last time, 嫪恬缑 came here and took Yu Wei's mother's soul back, saving her life.
At that time, the pills were no longer effective. After all, the soul had been captured. No matter how powerful the pills were, they couldn't cure a person whose soul had left.
If Xia Feng wanted to save Du Congrong, he had to bring back his soul.
The moment Xia Feng appeared in the Underworld, he was stopped by the guards.
"Who goes there? How dare you intrude upon the Underworld?" Seeing Xia Feng's arrival, the guards surrounded him.
"Summon the Lord of the Underworld to see me." Xia Feng's tone was one of absolute authority.
"How audacious! Seize this person and hand him over to the Lord of the Underworld for judgment." The guards ignored Xia Feng and directly ordered their subordinates to apprehend him.
Intruding upon the Underworld was a matter of certain death.
Seeing them make a move, Xia Feng merely raised his hand, and all the guards were sent flying backward, crashing heavily onto the ground.
The guards cried out in alarm, "You... you came to the Underworld in your physical body?"
It was no wonder the guards were so shocked, for throughout history, only one person had ever entered the Underworld in their physical body, and that was the Lord of the Underworld.
The Lord of the Underworld hailed from the God Realm and merely supervised the Underworld. He was a super-expert of the late God Emperor stage who, for his own reasons, entered the Underworld in his physical body.
Now, Xia Feng appearing in his physical body was the cause of the guards' terror.
The Lord of the Underworld was that unique individual. The sudden appearance of another like Xia Feng would surely drive them mad.
"I will not repeat myself," Xia Feng said coldly.
He was too lazy to waste time. If they still didn't send word, Xia Feng decided he would take matters into his own hands and force the Lord of the Underworld out.
The minor disturbance just now was unlikely to alert the Lord of the Underworld.
Many people caused trouble in the Underworld daily. If the Lord of the Underworld had to concern himself with every trivial matter, not only a God Emperor, but even a Saint Emperor would be exhausted to death.
The guard cried out, dropped his weapon, and turned to run in one direction.
He needed to inform the Lord of the Underworld that someone had arrived who was like him.
After passing through layers of notifications, the guard finally met the Lord of the Underworld.
"My... My Lord of the Underworld, I am a guard at the gate of the Underworld. Outside... outside there is a person in their physical body. He specifically asked to see you and also injured our people," the guard stammered, explaining the situation due to fear.
The Lord of the Underworld frowned upon hearing this.
Someone arrived in the Underworld in their physical body?
The Lord of the Underworld was no ordinary person, and he naturally understood the implications.
As of now, besides himself, no one else could come to the Underworld in their physical body.
This was solely due to him being of the Illusory Race; otherwise, no one could enter the Underworld in their physical form without facing the suppression of the Heavenly Dao.
"I will go out and see."
With that, the Lord of the Underworld's figure vanished from the great hall.
In truth, he was still somewhat disbelieving.
He found the idea of someone coming to the Underworld in their physical body utterly preposterous.
It seemed like child's play. However, he knew that the guards would not dare to deceive him, which was why the Lord of the Underworld decided to go and see for himself.
As a late-stage God Emperor, the Lord of the Underworld was a supreme existence in the Underworld. The Underworld was similar to the Immortal Realm, with comparable power levels.
And the Lord of the Underworld being a God Emperor meant a vast difference in power, a whole realm higher.
Besides the Lord of the Underworld, there were also the Eight Yama Kings, all of whom were Immortal Emperor level existences. The Lord of the Underworld, however, was a God Emperor, a full realm above them in power.
Xia Feng waited for a while, and then the Lord of the Underworld's voice was heard:
"Who dares to trespass in the Underworld?"
