The acrid stench of blood mixed with a foul smell rushed into Xiao Mu's nostrils, thick blood spreading beneath his feet.

Xiao Mu looked down to find that from the viscous blood, numerous grotesque hands that were as dark as snakes and bore sharp claws, were stretched out, grabbing onto his calves.

His movements were suddenly restrained, a chill spreading from his calves up to his upper body.

"Human, you're in the Underworld, kneel!"

An angry voice surged forward, a towering figure emerging from the black mist.

This figure was exceptionally robust, with the head of an ox and the face of a horse, holding a terrifying black chain in his hand. The chain was made of countless rings; the end of the chain was a black spike over a meter long.

The Ox-head and Horse-face held the chain and spike, looking down on Xiao Mu lifelessly from above.

The chilling majesty emanating from his body quickly froze the surrounding air.

Upon seeing this figure, Xiao Mu instead calmed down considerably. He looked around leisurely and asked nonchalantly, "This is the Underworld?"

"Impudent human, now that you know you're in the Underworld, kneel swiftly!"

Ox-head and Horse-face lowered his gaze to look at Xiao Mu, his face suddenly contorting, hidden in the shadows, appearing unspeakably terrifying.

Xiao Mu chuckled, suddenly retorting, "Who are you in the Underworld?"

Ox-head and Horse-face roared in anger, "How dare you disrespect the judge!"

"So, you're the judge!"

Xiao Mu smirked, his expression suddenly darkening, "How dare you! As the judge of the Underworld, why don't you kneel in front of the Heavenly Emperor?"

"You... Are you the Heavenly Emperor?"

Ox-head and Horse-face was startled, looking at Xiao Mu in disbelief, then immediately yelled, "No, you're talking nonsense! The Heavenly Emperor is long dead; you're not the Heavenly Emperor!"

"Haha!"

Xiao Mu laughed heartily, "You don't even know who I am, yet you dare to pretend to be the judge of the Underworld? Reveal your true form!"

As he yelled, Xiao Mu's body suddenly radiated dazzling light. This dazzling light started spreading from him, instantly illuminating the surroundings.

This was the Power of Supreme Yang.

Under the illumination of the Power of Supreme Yang, everything around him became incredibly bright.

The gigantic river of blood vanished, the red light too disappeared.

In the massive graveyard resembling a palace, a green-faced evil creature, shriveled and puny, was seated on a rotten wood coffin in front of Xiao Mu.

A foul and decaying stench constantly emitted from the green-faced creature and the rotten wood coffin beneath him.

Xiao Mu found that the green-faced creature and the rotten wood coffin seemed to have grown together. The creature's entire lower body had fused with the coffin, inseparable.

However, this green-faced creature radiated a strong discourse of evil, while a hint of the Yin God's aura seeped out of the rotten wooden coffin.

Xiao Mu had experienced the aura of the Yin God on the Ghost Princess and her Ghost Servant before and was not prone to mistaking it.

This made him feel uneasy; the green-faced creature and the rotten coffin were definitely not a single entity.

"Who... Who... Who are you exactly? Why are you cultivating both the Power of Supreme Yang and the Death Force?"

The green-faced creature was astounded as it looked at Xiao Mu, seemingly unable to believe or comprehend.

"And what are you? Why are you in this Evil Spirit Ridge?"

Xiao Mu stared at the green-faced creature, silently guessing its identity.

The green-faced creature radiated strong evil energy that was completely different from evil ghosts, zombies, the Greenfin Clan, or even the demons Xiao Mu had encountered before. It should be another form of creature.

The green-faced creature's eyes flickered.

Two generated lights shot out from its eyes, landing on Xiao Mu.

A sprout suddenly sprouted on top of Xiao Mu's head.

The sprout grew at an astonishing rate, and it soon matured fully, revealing a small white bud.

The small bud rapidly burst open with breathtaking speed.

Dammit! Planting grass on my head!

Xiao Mu didn't need to guess to know that this was some kind of Secret Art.

As soon as the sprout appeared on his head, he felt the life force within his body rapidly drain away as if sucked dry by the sprout, nourishing the sprout and enabling its rapid growth.

Without any hesitation, he extended his right hand, releasing a wave of Death Force towards the green-faced creature.

Simultaneously, the Life Force in his body swiftly spread, transforming into a white light, forming a Life Energy Shield, fully protecting him, and isolating the sprout.

Despite this, Xiao Mu felt his life force rapidly deplete at an alarming rate; even the Life Energy Shield couldn't wholly control this suction-like Secret Art.

"Seal of the Heavenly Emperor, come forth!"

Xiao Mu extended his finger, and the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor flew out, fluctuating uncertainly in mid-air.

Hum Hum Hum!

Boom Boom Boom!

Emperor's Might fell from the sky, an endless golden light emitting in a spherical form, encapsulating everything below and isolating it from the outside world, forming an independent realm.

Under the coverage of the Chaos-like Power, the Death Force released by Xiao Mu was firmly held by the Chaos-like Power, incredibly sturdy.

Puff!

The Chaos-like Power struck the green-faced creature.

Death Force erupted into the body of the green-faced creature, causing it to rapidly age.

"Your basic Death Force can't kill me!"

The green-faced creature snarled, a strong life force surging within its body, rapidly suppressing the aging, simultaneously healing its body.

"What about the Chaos-like Power?"

Xiao Mu drew the Yin Diagram with both hands. Under the Emperor's Might, two Yin Diagrams were simultaneously imbued with a magnificent Chaos-like Power.

Nothing can resist the Chaos-like Power!

Xiao Mu pushed both hands forward.

Hum Hum Hum!

Both Yin Diagrams simultaneously flew towards the green-faced creature, one above the other.

Puff!

The green-faced creature, unable to detach from the rotten coffin, was split into three sections as the Yin Diagram swept over it.
