Chapter 516

Looking down at the entire territory of the Nine Nethers, the place where the Demon Prison is located is actually the true center of the Nine Nethers.

There are major considerations for building the Demon Prison here.

To the east of the Demon Prison is the Great Rift that runs through the nine levels of the Nine Nether abyss; to the north, the Blood Sea surges; to the west, the Huang Quan and Nether River flow; to the south, the Soul-Breaking Mountain stands.

The dangerous terrain constitutes the first barrier of the Demon Prison.

The second barrier of the Demon Prison is the Nine Pass Fortress.

The Dui Gate Pass in the west of the Jiuguan faces the Ghost Gate Pass and is close to the confluence of the Nether River, Huang Quan, and Blood Sea. Since the establishment of the Demon Prison, the area between the Dui Gate Pass and the Ghost Gate Pass has been a trade gathering place for the Nine Nethers and the human world.

And the Nine Pass Auction currently being held is being held in this area.

"Finally reached the Ghost Gate Pass."

Running a horse to death while looking at the mountain!

When she parted ways with the Netherworld Deer, Hua Changxi thought she was not far from the Ghost Gate Pass, but only after she got on the road did she know that the Ghost Gate Pass had its own magnification projection effect, and the actual distance was nearly ten times farther than she expected.

At this moment, she was radiating exhaustion from head to toe after the long journey.

The Ghost Gate Pass, towering into the clouds, was pitch black like ink, as if it were built from solidified eternal night, emitting a suffocating and sinister aura.

Below the pass city, the ghost army under the jurisdiction of the Netherworld City stood ready, the military camp was strictly guarded, and it was as solid as a golden soup.

Hua Changxi looked at the Ghost Gate Pass, thinking about how to pass.

Hard breaking is definitely not possible.

"Sigh..."

Although she hasn't been down to the Nine Nethers many times, she has offended quite a few Nine Nether forces.

She split the Ghost Mother Mountain with a sword, burned the Ghost Infant River with fire, offended the Ghost Race, killed Lady Chi Yan this time, and disguised herself as a Ghost Race member to kill many Nine Nether creatures at the fourth level abyss entrance.

She destroyed Lady Bi An Hua's avatar and offended the Huang Quan Race again.

She snatched the dark blue light cluster and offended... no, it's not offending, but directly becoming the public enemy of all races in the Nine Nethers.

Hua Changxi sighed, feeling that the Nine Nethers and her were at odds; otherwise, she wouldn't have caused a pile of trouble every time she went down to the Nine Nethers.

Regardless, now that she has to pass the Ghost Gate Pass, she can't offend the Netherworld City again.

If she can't break through hard, she can only pass cleverly.

"Hm?"

"Why has the fog become bigger?"

A large amount of white mist quietly surged out from around the Ghost Gate Pass at some point. The white mist mixed in the gray fog, making the fog in the air thicker and bigger. By the time the patrolling ghost soldiers on the Ghost Gate Pass wall noticed, Hua Changxi had already completed the construction of the "Soul Domain."

If, before consuming the Nine-Orifice Exquisite Soul Heart Fruit, the Soul Domain Hua Changxi constructed was a thatched cottage, then now, the Soul Domain she constructed is a reinforced concrete house.

Therefore, even if the Ghost Commander realm powerhouse guarding the Ghost Gate Pass discovered something unusual, they were directly trapped in the white mist and couldn't get out no matter what.

When the "ding-a-ling" soul bell sounded, all the ghost troops fell into dreams.

"Hoo~"

During this period, a black shadow like lightning passed through the Ghost Gate Pass. After the black shadow went deep into the gray fog, it didn't take long for the fog in the air to start to thin.

Soon, the Soul Domain collapsed, and the dreams dispersed.

The Ghost Gate Pass returned to normal, and the ghost troops didn't feel any abnormality, patrolling as usual. Only the guarding Ghost Commander shook his head, feeling as if he had forgotten something.

"The Nightmare Technique combined with the Soul Domain, the effect is really not bad."

Looking at the Ghost Gate Pass left behind, Hua Changxi continued to head east in a good mood.

After passing the Ghost Gate Pass, Hua Changxi keenly sensed that the closer she got to the area where the Demon Prison was located, the weaker the erosion of the Netherworld aura in the air on her flesh body became.

She thought this might be related to the fact that there were more human cultivators gathered in the Demon Prison area.

The more humans there are, the stronger the Yang energy, and when the Yang energy and the Netherworld aura neutralize each other, the erosive power weakens.

The long road full of ghost aura...

The surging gray fog...

The dark wind carrying "living things"...

Such a scene reminded Hua Changxi of her experience when she first went down to the Nine Nethers.

Most human cultivators who go down to the Nine Nethers can only operate in one area, which is the Demon Prison Nine Pass area.

Thus, she knew that she had already entered the range covered by the Demon Prison.

Soon, figures flashed from all directions from time to time, some were human cultivators, and some were Nine Nether creatures.

Without exception, these people were all heading in the same direction.

It didn't take long for some intermittent clamor to drift from the air, mixed with whispers, disputes, and sporadic roars.

Moving forward, the bustling scene of shoulder-to-shoulder suddenly hit her field of vision—at the gap where the gray fog dispersed, figures were moving and crossing, actually adding a bit of eerie clamor than the human market.

The Nine Pass Auction site, finally arrived!

Hua Changxi didn't rush forward, but hid far away in the gray fog, observing quietly.

In order to facilitate viewing the overall situation of the scene, she flew directly to the high sky to look down.

The venue of the Nine Pass Auction is an area specially divided, overall circular.

On the side close to the Ghost Gate Pass are the stalls of the Nine Nether creatures; on the side close to the Dui Gate Pass are the stalls of human cultivators.

In the middle stands a stone platform more than a meter high and a hundred meters in diameter.

On the east and west sides of the stone platform stand a crescent-shaped building platform respectively.

The two building platforms combine to form a circle.

Sitting on the west building platform are all the major forces of the Nine Nethers; sitting on the east building platform are all the major human forces.

The two sides directly present a state of opposition.

However, although they are not dealing with each other, the auction has been held, and the necessary order is still there.

Even if they argue fiercely, no one has used force.

After finding out the general situation of the Nine Pass Auction site, Hua Changxi fell from the sky, organized the spoils she obtained this time into a package, changed into a small Ghost Race minion, and walked into the auction site swaggeringly.

Her appearance didn't attract any attention at all.

At the last auction, second-grade resources could be auctioned.

Nowadays, with the acceleration of spiritual energy recovery, heavenly materials and earthly treasures are emerging one after another, and second-grade resources are no longer enough to look at.

At this auction, only treasures of the fourth grade and above are qualified to be auctioned at the central auction building.

Few people can come up with resources of the fourth grade and above, and those who can't can only set up a stall for face-to-face transactions.

After entering the venue, Hua Changxi didn't rush to find a seat, but wandered around slowly.

The stalls of the Nine Nethers and humans are distinct, but they are divided into four major areas according to grade.

With the central auction building as the core, four stall lanes radiate outward like semicircular ripples.

The higher the grade, the closer to the auction building.

Hua Changxi wandered around the Nine Nether stalls and human stalls, picked and chose some things she wanted to trade, and then set up a stall on the Nine Nether fourth-grade stall lane.

"Don't miss it when you pass by, come and choose high-grade ghost weapons."

She emptied the Lady's Building, and there were quite a few ghost weapons. She couldn't use them in the human world, so she had to deal with them quickly.

At first, Hua Changxi's stall was unattended, but it didn't take long. As one Ghost Race member after another traded for their favorite ghost weapons, her stall became lively.

By the time she took out resources needed by the Demon Race, Nether River Race, Huang Quan Race, and other Nine Nether scattered races one after another, she became the most prominent stall owner in the Nine Nether area.

Even human cultivators were attracted and traded for many things they wanted at her stall.

Then, she became popular.

It attracted the attention of the powerhouses sitting in the auction building.

Although the powerhouses were a bit surprised that this small Ghost Race minion could take out resources needed by all races, they all held back and observed silently.

Until a dark green figure walked toward Hua Changxi's stall.

"That is... the Nether River Crown Prince!"
