With the natural disasters happening frequently these days, Fenshui the Ghost King went to investigate and was in distress.
Other than knowing that the seal had been destroyed by someone, he didnât have any other clues about who or why. He was yet unable to report anything to Yuanxu.
He decided to give up on searching and chose to wait idly for the person who dug the seals to show up.
The hideout he had chosen was Cangxuâs original palace.
He picked this place because there was a prison with a dark seal right underneath the palace. It had held many prisoners of former hostile forces and had been personally watched by Cangxu himself.
However, after a few daysâ waiting, nobody was seen.
A thought suddenly dawned on him. The most terrifying seal within the Land of Cangxu would no doubt be the Garden of Death.
It was foretold that within this region hid the Evil Demon Godâs body.
Of course, he was not sure whether the myth was true. Even the death of the Evil Demon God was unverifiable.
If everything was real and the Evil Demon Godâs body was dug out, surely a ghastly disaster would erupt. A chill went down his spine just thinking of it.
Just when this thought went through his mind, he hurriedly rushed toward the direction of the Garden of Death.
Coincidentally, he bumped into the infamous Hu He digging out the seal.
Having finally found the culprit, Fenshuiâs eyes gleamed with a sharp gaze, but he didnât kill Hu He instantly. Instead, he apprehended him and was ready to report back.
But Fenshui realized that something was fishy about this hole that was dug out.
Other than Cha Naâs zombie spirit, there was also an enormous pitch-black tombstone.
He didnât know much about ancient scriptures, but the dark handprint embedded on the tombstone made him stop dead in his tracks.
This was the God Spiritâs breath!
Fenshuiâs heart skipped a beat as he turned and looked at Hu He who was still trying hard to get away from his grip.
It was so close, so close⊠donât tell me the one whoâs in a deep slumber down there is the long-gone Evil Demon God!
Fenshui the Ghost King really wanted to strangle Hu He to death.
Legend had it that the Evil Demon God had always been thirsty for blood. The reason why there were so many Demonic Plants growing in the Garden of Death was that the Evil Demon God had used the blood of different living beings to water them, making them all full of demonic power.
These legends were baseless but the Shebi Corpse Clan that came out of nowhere recently had verified the legend of the Evil Demon Godâs Soul-Destroying Curse.
A thought flashed across Fenshuiâs mind⊠if the Evil Demon God were to be dug out, then Yuanxu, the Evil King, and all the other natural disasters would no longer be significant. There was no point to even fight for the throne anymore⊠everyone should run for their lives!
Slap!
As fear crept into him, Fenshui gave a hard slap on Hu Heâs face and caught him off guard, causing his head to lean backward.
âFuck! Big bird, how dare you hit meâŠâ
Slap!
âGreat, just you wait. When I finish refining Hiderigami, I will surely pluck out all of yourâŠâ
Slap! Slap! Slap!
âŠ
After venting off his anger, Fenshui flapped his wings to bury the section that most probably contained the said seal and flew away with Hu He.
At the moment, Hu Heâs nose was still bleeding non-stop because of the beating. He had stopped talking and was in a daze.
In the live streaming channel:
Crayon Sinchan: âMotherfucker. Demon King, you should jot this down first. Weâll find out where his ancestral tomb is for you. If he hits you, then you dig up his ancestorsâ graves and curse him for the next 18 generations. No, dig up an entire hundred generations. (laughing emoji)â
Xueli_The_Strongest: âLooks like he almost dug something out, itâs a pity that he got caught red-handed by Yuanxuâs subordinate. I almost felt for Demon King for half a second. (laughing emoji)â
Watermelon_Taro: âAmid the breeze and cold river water, the Great Demon King went and never came back. (laughing emoji)â
Assasin_Creed: âSo unfortunate to see the Great Demon King get caught, but why do I feel somewhat good? There should be no hatred between us. (laughing emoji)â
A_Large_Wolfdog: âLook! The Great Demon King is flying, I wonder whatâs the line of blood flowing down. (laughing emoji)â
Crayon_Shinchan replied to A_Large_Wolfdog: âLook, isnât this a good little dog? Laughing and patting on the dogâs head three times. (laughing emoji)â

This time when the gamers saw how Hu He failed to dig up the seal, there were no regrets at all. On the contrary, they were interested in how Hu He would be punished.
They had even opened up a gambling port in the live streaming channel, listing out different proportions of choices for other gamers to place their bets on.
This scene made Hu feel a sudden sense of grief on the inside.
Building your happiness on otherâs suffering? Are you guys even human?
Gales whizzed at his ears whereas his nosebleed had turned into droplets and splattered all over his face in the wind. Hu He was in total melancholy.
About an hour or so in the air, Fenshui the Ghost King finally slowed down and started to descend.
The name of the place appeared on the map.
[Spectral Dragon Tomb]
Suddenly, Fenshui made a sharp dive. After gliding for a distance in a low altitude, he let go of Hu He, allowing him to free fall and eventually his body slammed onto the ground.
Using his wings as an advantage to balance his body, Fenshui touched down steadily. He then faced Yuanxu who was sitting cross-legged on the ground and said, âYour Majesty, this is the person who destroyed the seals!â
Hearing this, Hu He grimaced and slowly got up from the ground. When he raised his head, he realized that in front of him was actually an old acquaintance of his.
âI already guessed that it might be your doing⊠it was just as expected. Tell me what your intention is!â
Gazing at Hu He, Yuanxu was not surprised at all. After all, he himself was dug out by Hu He as well.
The only thing Yuanxu couldnât understand was why Hu He would do such a thing. It was an arduous and thankless task after all. Besides, in the Land of Cangxu, many dangerous seals were lurking around every corner, and he might lose his life without being careful.
Nevertheless, Hu He was his savior. That was why Yuanxu did not take his soul directly but chose to ask his purpose first.
âI⊠would you believe me if I said I dug for fun?â Hu He muttered.
âLooks like you are full of secrets!â Yuanxu held his hand out and sucked Hu He to his side, all the while sitting cross-legged on the ground.
âLast chance for you to speak the truth. If thereâs anything false in your words, I will take your soul personally and understand it myself!â Yuanxu uttered lightly.
Hearing this, Hu He couldnât help but feel resentment and humor at the same time.
As if Iâm really afraid. Talking about death, my number of deaths is ranked the top in this game, will I be petrified just by that?
âIâm just digging for fun⊠if you donât believe me just take my soul!â now that Hu He knew he might not be able to make it out in one piece, he slapped his thigh and pressed his luck.
Yuanxu slowly turned his head and gazed upon Hu He, with his eyebrows furrowed, âI find that youâre not afraid of me!â
âWhy, we all have a head, a pair of arms and a pair of legs, have you grown wings? I need not be afraid of you!â Hu He fought back with grandeur.
Fenshui the Ghost King, who had been listening from the side, couldnât help but glare at Hu He.
Only I have wings here!
âSince youâre not afraid of death, are you terrified of loneliness then?â when it came to the fearless Hu He, Yuanxuâs face turned bitter cold.
âWhat do you mean?â Hu He was stunned.
âA seal of immortality and eternity. Arenât you obsessed with digging out seals? Then I shall seal you up and make you suffer in the dark!â
Not waiting for Hu He to answer, Yuanxu turned and said, âFenshui, bring him to the Infinite Darkness and seal him up. Bring him back after a thousand years!â
Hearing that, a menacing grin crept onto Fenshuiâs face. With a flail of his wings, he grabbed hold of Hu He and drifted toward the direction of the original palace.
All the while, the most miserable thing in a place like the underworld was not death, but an infinite seal.
The torment of spending oneâs life all alone, even the gods would be mentally deranged!
Meanwhile in the Land of Cangxu, there was a place for the seal specially used for imprisonment, which was the underground of the original palace.

This place was personally built by Cangxu himself after a few ten thousand years after becoming king. The reason was to suppress all forces who dared to confront him.
The soulsâ perception of time in this prison was completely different from the outside world. An hour on the outside world meant 1,000 years in the Infinite Darkness.
Besides, there was no food and soul energy in it, so there was no way to perform sorcery either. Apart from that, a seal was made on the prisonerâs body so that the prisoner would not be able to escape through death. It was truly a place of darkness.
Considering the existence of this seal, Cangxuâs status was as solid as a rock when he was ruling back at that time. No one dared to revolt against him as anyone in their right mind wouldnât want to spend the rest of their life in darkness. That was a torture so much worse than death.
