Chapter 1412: Astral Guardian Field



Chapter 1412: Astral Guardian Field

In the mortal domain, Wu Yu had also seen others who had memory-searching techniques.

But they could not search an immortal's immortal spirit.

Yet it was Chakravarti Ghostly King's Dark Moon Soul-and-Spirit Domination Skill which could, as expected of a ghostly immortal's secret technique. It looked eerie.

One could only imagine the agony that Zhao Yuanchen had gone through.

His entire body was starting to turn purple from the frostbite, the cold graying his eyes over like a corpse's.

The entire process had taken about 15 minutes, and Chakravarti Ghostly King's eyes continued to flicker.

Wu Yu was thinking: "He chose to use this Dark Moon Soul-and-Spirit Domination Skill rather than let Zhao Yuanchen speak. He wants to know the most important information first, and then decide if he will tell the other ghostly kings."

Although he needed the other ghostly kings' help, but he wanted the information first.

Finally, he smiled. He had the answer he wanted.

10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King.

It was completely different from what he had imagined. He was actually a little disappointed. He had thought too much, hoping for some treasure that would help him reach eternal immortal emperor level.

But he knew that such a treasure was too much to ask for.

It might not exist even in the whole 10,000 Levels of Hell. To reach eternal devil emperor level was something that any ghostly king would dream of. But very few actually realized that dream.

Eternal life was a completely different notion from longevity.

However!

Chakravarti Ghostly King looked at his own son and daughter!

They were both 9-realm ghostly lords, on the cusp of becoming ghostly kings. If...... one of them could become eternal devil emperors, then he would be content.

This at least was realistic, and a great opportunity delivered right to them. He alsos held the advantage. This was the best opportunity now.

"There's no hope for me. But if there is such a chance for my children, then I should try for it. After all, it was Astral Hell which was chosen! It was Chakravarti-raja Star, my territory!"

"The Jade Emperor chose my territory to test his immortals. Did he not think that I might turn the tables and be best positioned to take it?"

10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King.

Its value needed no elaboration.

Before this, he had indeed longed for some treasure which could help him reach eternal devil emperor status. But he knew in his heart that the chances were very, very low.

And now, the beneficiary would be his own son or daughter, although it had been exactly what he was looking for. A treasure that drove people mad with desire. If news of this got out, there would be many ghostly kings, and even ghostly immortal experts from other Hells that would descend upon Astral Hell. The eternal devil emperors might even be interested.

As for the Chakravarti Ghostly King, he was lost in delighted surprise for a while. He knew also who were the immortal lords on Astral Hell. They were indeed all the descendants of the eternal immortal emperors.

Each of them was of eminent status. For example, this Zhao Yuanchen's father was not someone that he could cross.

And yet his words still held true. This was Hell!

He knew so much, and stood a better chance than anyone!

Right now, the ghostly kings were looking at Chakravarti Ghostly King in great anticipation, dying to know what the "thing" was.

Chakravarti Ghostly King did not speak yet. He needed these ghostly kings' help, and so was considering what to say.

Zhao Yuanchen came to his senses slowly, his body still chattering. The pain had been something he would never forget. It was excruciating torture that planted the seed of hate in his heart.

"You! You searched my memories! You know who I am! Zhao Gongming of the 36 Heavenly Generals is my father!" Zhao Yuanchen recalled the sensation of before, and hatred sprung forth in his heart.

"Release me immediately!" His eyes widened at Chakravarti Ghostly King. "You already know what you want to know. If you don't release me, I will see you dead without a grave!"

Chakravarti Ghostly King was unspooked. He spoke to the ghostly kings holding Zhao Yuanchen: "Bring him down as well. Don't let him escape now."

"Bring him down?"

They were confused. After all, Chakravarti Ghostly King had yet to say what the "thing" was.

Chakravarti Ghostly King led the way, everyone else following behind. Zhao Yuanchen was also being carried along. Thinking of the Dark Moon Soul-and-Spirit Domination Skill's torture, and then not being released even after his identity being made plain, he only grew angrier and angrier.

"My father must be able to see a little within the 10,000 Levels of Hell. He might be able to help me. If this guy knows the secret, he controls the local power, and the 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King might very well be taken by him!"

"If that's the case, then I might as well cause some chaos. Who knows, something might arise out of it! Since I can't get it, no one will!"

Being humiliated thus, Zhao Yuanchen was especially angry.

Suddenly, while he was being moved along, he shouted loudly: "We immortal lords are fighting in the Great Void Immortal Path for a Mark of an Immortal King. The Jade Emperor has announced that a 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King is hidden on Chakravarti-raja Star. We came to face trials......"

At this point, Chakravarti Ghostly King had already controlled him again. A light punch sent his mind reeling, his body freezing over so he was unable to move. He was like an ice sculpture.

Zhao Yuanchen had gone insane.

Wu Yu was surprised by his reaction. After all, he was descended from someone important, and was very seldom subject to such humiliation, his memories laid bare with no secrets.

But the one line he had managed revealed the situation very clearly!

The Great Void Immortal Path contest was one that the ghostly immortals were jealous of. Because the 10,000 Levels of Hell did not have such a competition. No one gave away Marks of an Immortal King, and they had to fight for it themselves.

And to think that there was a 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King, and hidden in hell, this test was too wild!

Immediately, all the ghostly kings nearby had heard about this 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King.

Those words told all.

But Zhao Yuanchen's goal was not just to let these ghostly kings know. His voice had rang out, carrying far away. It could not be stopped, and there were many Chakravarti Imperial Army in the vicinity, and even ghostly lords guarding the Hell master's residence. They had probably heard as well.

"Damn it!" Chakravarti Ghostly King was angered. He had been careless, underestimating Zhao Yuanchen's pride. And now the news was leaked.

Luckily, there were not many people here.

He immediately reacted. "Activate the Astral Guardian Field. No one is to be let out. Not even a housefly. All immortal message talismans are to be confiscated. Immediately!"

If the news leaked out, it would spread like wildfire.

They could only use the Astral Guardian Field to lock down the entire Chakravarti-raja Star. Otherwise, any news that leaked out would trigger a reaction from the other Hells.

The ghostly kings immediately complied, and also personally activated the Astral Guardian Field. Soon, a huge immortal design covered the entire Chakravarti-raja Star. Many people who were heading out were immediately stopped.

"What's going on!"

"What's the idea activating the Astral Guardian Field? We want to leave!"

"Yeah! What's up with the Hell master?"

The entire Chakravarti-raja Star was in an uproar.

"Father, if we do this, our time is limited. The Astral Guardian Field will raise suspicions." Amethyst-Eyed Ghostly Lord said hurriedly. Hearing the name of 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King, her petite frame began to quiver with excitement. At present, if her father truly managed to obtain the 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King, it seemed like she would be the ultimate benefactor.

"I know. So we have to end this quickly." He had not expected Zhao Yuanchen to be so impulsive and let the secret out. It served Zhao Yuanchen not at all. He was simply taking revenge for being captured.

It was no good news for all those who were in the know before.

After activating the Astral Guardian Field, Chakravarti Ghostly King continued to make arrangements.

"Immobilize everyone without 100 li of our location!"

"Seal all fissures! No one is allowed in on pain of death! No exceptions except by my personal order!"

After making these arrangements, the ghostly kings hurried to carry them out. Even 10,000 Bones Ghostly King and Amethyst Soul Ghostly King went to carry out their respective duties.

All that were left by Chakravarti Ghostly King's side were the inner core.

Chakravarti Ghostly King said grimly: "In truth, we are very lucky this time. A treasure of this caliber - you all know how valuable it is. If we succeed, we can raise an eternal devil emperor on Astral Hell."

The ghostly kings all knew the implications - rising higher up the ranks.

"But this trouble has been caused because I was careless. Even so, we stand an advantage compared to the immortal lords from the sky palaces. Actually, there's no need to worry about the immortal lords. Now that we know their goal, the Astral Guardian Field will prevent them all from entering."

The Astral Hell's Astral Guardian Field was impermeable to all but the strongest of immortal kings. Chakravarti Ghostly King was confident about this.

"Chakravarti-raja Star shut, and immortal message talismans shut down. But our response took some time. News might have leaked out. We can't be sure, so we can only hope that we're lucky, and all who know are within the Astral Guardian Field, and that we have a chance."

"Once word gets out, and other ghostly immortals are alerted, we'll be in trouble. Our Hell will be a chaotic mess, and ghostly immortals from other Hells will come to destroy the Chakravarti-raja Star. Many ghostly kings will definitely come to contest the treasure for their descendants."

This troubled all of the ghostly kings present. Indeed, treasures were treasures. When they were too coveted, the number of people chasing them would swell dramatically.

"If news has not yet gotten out, then the activation of the Astral Guardian Field will raise suspicions. We might have bought a little time, but still not much."

"Therefore, we must seize every second we have, and go after the 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King!"

Chakravarti Ghostly King declared resolutely.
