127: [The underworld], the sacred way.

"Netherworld?"

An intense unease began to well up on the Ghost Buddha's grotesque face.

"Impossible! How is this possible?!"

He stared at the massive gate before him, disbelieving.

Every aura around him filled him with immense terror.

Within that eerie, deathly silent gate, permeated with ghostly qi, lay the power he had always yearned for.

That was the true aura of the God-Controlling Path, a power he was utterly incapable of resisting.

Whoosh—

The grotesque Buddha head that the Ghost Buddha had transformed into began to dissolve, and under the illumination of the pervasive gray light, he reverted to the appearance of a shriveled old man.

Then, his knees buckled, and he directly knelt in the void.

"Spare my life..."

"I am willing to merge... merge with my main body..."

He lowered his head and spoke in a low voice.

Let alone fighting, he couldn't even muster the slightest thought of escaping.

The gray light illuminated the heavens and earth, filling every corner.

Rather than saying this was still Earth Star, it was more accurate to say it was already within the Netherworld.

Not entering the God-Controlling Path, even if only by a hair's breadth, was like the difference between heaven and earth.

The Great Qin King's eyes were filled with unhidden shock as he slowly put away the scroll in his hand.

Bai Su and the others looked at the deathly silent gate of the Netherworld, even more astonished beyond measure.

While they couldn't understand what kind of power it was, they understood the moment they saw the Ghost Buddha kneel: beyond a demigod, the power of the God-Controlling Path.

Qin Feng nodded slightly and raised a hand.

A grotesque, crimson Buddha head appeared in the void.

"Eat it."

Qin Feng spoke indifferently.

"Thank you for the gift, my Lord."

A look of surprise appeared on the Buddha head's grotesque face, and it opened its mouth, inhaling fiercely.

The Ghost Buddha's entire body was directly sucked into the Buddha head's massive maw.

On the Buddha head, red light surged, and the crimson color became extremelyRich, changing its attributes.

[Current Beast: Ghost Buddha]

[Grade: Ancient grade.]

[Tribulation: Ninth Tribulation.]

[Level: Lv100.]

[Combat Power: 110 million.]

[Skills: ...]

[Evolution Value Required for Evolution: One million.]

As the damaged state disappeared, the evolution information also became visible.

Staring at the panel information before him, Qin Feng waved his hand, returning it to his Beast Space.

Then, his gaze fell upon the Nether Ghost General in the sky.

The next moment, without any warning, merely by eye contact.

The Nether Ghost General's body directly disintegrated, its health instantly dropping to zero, and then it reappeared between heaven and earth with a deathly gray color.

[World BOSS: Nether Ghost General has died. Great Qin has gained one hundred wisps of divine power.]

As the panel information appeared, a golden divine light emerged out of thin air, pouring into the Great Qin Altar.

Qin Feng's expression remained unchanged, and then he gently closed his eyes.

Under the reflection of the Netherworld, he could clearly feel a thin thread of karma deeply buried somewhere.

However, even with the power of the God-Controlling Path from the Netherworld, he still couldn't fully trace the source of that karmic thread.

Although it was within Earth Star, it was more like a separate space.

"The Abyss?"

Qin Feng remembered what the Ghost Buddha had once said.

That place was a gathering point for Limit Break professionals, which meant that within the Abyss, there should be a power that could sustain the lives of dying professionals, allowing them to cling to life?

Furthermore, there were probably more than one demigod within.

Containing demigods, sustaining life, and being able to prevent the God-Controlling Path's power from fully penetrating—this power truly surprised him.

Frowning slightly, Qin Feng reopened his eyes.

Originally, he had intended to use the power of the Netherworld to directly penetrate the Abyss, trace the source of the karmic thread, and pull Su Mingyue's soul out of it.

But now it seemed he could only achieve this by personally entering the Abyss.

After temporarily abandoning this plan, Qin Feng's gaze finally settled on the massive gate of the Netherworld.

The evolution from Ancient grade to Stellar grade.

From Bone Corpse evolving into the Netherworld, its combat power even directly became: MAX.

The magnitude of the change completely exceeded his imagination, even making him somewhat look forward to the Stellar grade forms of his other Beasts.

But compared to this, what surprised Qin Feng even more was that his panel had also changed.
