Before he finished speaking, Bai Ze slapped him in the face.
"What I hate the most is people like you who threaten others even when death is imminent!"
Bai Ze said as he put the copper coin sword in his hand directly against the throat of the purple-robed magician.
"Say it!"
The purple-robed magician wanted to refuse, but when Bai Ze exerted a little force, the purple-robed magician coughed violently. The strong sense of suffocation made him roll his eyes!
"I-I said, cough!"
Under the fear of death, the purple-robed magician no longer dared to deny it and hurriedly begged for mercy. Only then did Bai Ze let go of the copper coin sword and let the purple-robed magician summon him truthfully.
"We have no choice but to do this! It was Yama who forced us to do this!"
The purple-robed magician said in a trembling voice with a sad face.
"What is Yama?"
When I heard this name, I was very curious and couldn't help but ask.
The purple-robed magician said: "The origin of Yama is mysterious. No one knows its background. I only know that it is an extremely powerful monster in the netherworld, and its strength is close to that of the Ghost King!"
The purple-robed magician said that two years ago, he entered the ghost gate during the Guanluo Yin ceremony, but accidentally encountered Yan Mo. With a few moves, he was easily defeated.
Yama did not kill the purple-robed magician. Instead, he placed a restriction on him, requiring him to do as he ordered, otherwise he would be unable to die!
In order to survive, the purple-robed magician followed Yama's instructions and sent a ghost into the unknown space on a fixed day every month.
"Why did Yama ask you to send so many ghosts in?"
Listening to the purple-robed magician's story, I became increasingly puzzled.
The purple-robed magician explained: "The Yama has reached the critical stage of breakthrough and needs nourishment from countless ghosts. As long as it collects ninety-nine and eighty-one ghosts, it will devour those ghosts and complete its evolution."
"As long as it completes its evolution, it can freely shuttle between the Yin and Yang realms and devour the souls of mortals at will. When the time comes, even the Ghost King below will be unable to stop it."
I couldn't help but frown. If this Yama was allowed to complete its evolution and come to the Yang Realm, it would definitely cause a catastrophe in the human world.
Therefore we must stop it!
I couldn't help but think of the monster I encountered in the unknown space, so I asked the purple-robed magician whether this monster was the Yama he said.
To my surprise, the purple-robed magician shook his head.
"Mr. Cheng, the monster you are talking about should be one of Yama's demon guards, responsible for helping it maintain the order of the unknown space. The real Yama is ever-changing. Even I don't know what it really looks like!"
After listening to what the purple-robed magician said, I was extremely shocked. The demon guard in the unknown space was already so terrifying. Unexpectedly, it was just a guard of Yama.
How terrifying would the real Yama be?
However, although I have expected that this Yama will be difficult to deal with, my mind has not changed. Whether it is out of morality or duty, I must prevent it from completing its evolution!
Needless to say, Lonnie, Bai Ze, Hu Hua and others have the same idea as me.
After a short discussion, we quickly decided to let Xiao Na and A Kang stay to take care of Jing Jing, while the four immortals brought by Hu Hua Hua were responsible for guarding the purple-robed magician and his apprentices.
And Lonnie, Bai Ze and Hu Hua are going to enter the unknown space again to get rid of Yama!
Before setting off, we could already predict the difficulty of this mission, so we prepared a large number of various talismans and magic weapons in case we need them in case of emergencies.
However, despite making a lot of preparations, I still had no confidence at all.
"Well, it would be great if we could recruit our great immortal in the unknown space. This would greatly increase our chances of defeating Yama."
I sighed and couldn't help but express what was in my mind.
"Brother Cheng, this is not difficult. Let me help you solve it."
After hearing my complaint, Hua Hua smiled faintly, then took out a piece of black wood and handed it to my hand.
"This is the yin-yang wood. It is the key raw material for me to build a living gate. It can communicate between the yin and yang worlds. If you carry it with you, you can summon your own great immortal even if you are in the netherworld."
I was overjoyed when I took over the piece of Yin-Yang Wood, and quickly thanked Hu Hua.
"Brother Zihua, thank you very much!"
"You're welcome."
Hu Hua waved his hand and said: "On this mission, we can only win if we unite sincerely. I am doing this for the sake of the entire team."
Soon, after I was fully prepared, I asked the purple-robed magician to perform the ritual of viewing the falling shadow and send us into the ghost gate.
The purple-robed magician also knows that our trip is to deal with the Yama. Only by getting rid of the Yama will the restrictions on him be lifted.
Therefore, he worked very hard this time. Although we temporarily untied him, he had no intention of escaping.
Soon, with the completion of the viewing ceremony, we stepped into the depths of the ghost gate. Following the previous route, not long after, the group came to that unknown space again.
Broad roads, majestic tall buildings, a strong sense of death...
Everything here is unchanged from the last time I came here.
However, the question for us now is, where should we find Yama?
According to the purple-robed magician, this Yama can be ever-changing and can also hide its own aura. If it hides it intentionally, it will not be easy for us to find it.
"Since that Demon Guard is the guardian of Yama, then as long as we find the Demon Guard first, maybe we can find clues about Yama from it!"
After thinking for a while, I made my own suggestion.
Bai Ze and the others had no objection, so I followed my previous memory and fumbled my way to the place where the demon guard appeared last time.
"Ghost, come out! Aren't you trying to catch me?"
Standing on the ground, I shouted loudly around me, intending to lure the demon guards to show up.
Although I don’t know if this trick will work, I can only give it a try now.
After shouting several times, there was still silence all around, with no response at all.
Just when I was about to give up, suddenly, there was a tremor in the distance!
Boom, boom, boom!
As the ground trembled, the demon guard finally appeared!
It's still that huge body, with its giant copper bell eyes that shoot out streaks of red light, and the huge mace that it wields in its hand...
Yes, that's it!
Different from the panic I felt last time, when I saw the Demon Guard appear this time, I actually felt a touch of excitement in my heart!
After all, this time I have so many top immortals around me to help me, which naturally increases my confidence.
"Everyone, be careful. This demon guard is difficult to deal with. Let's go up together!"
I warned everyone, then took out a talisman, held up the King of Martial Whip, and prepared to take action!
"Everyone, please be patient and let me deal with it."
