As soon as he finished speaking, he transformed into a golden light and flew towards the direction of the Wheel of Reincarnation.
Then, Xiaobai, the Immortal in the Book, and Wuhuan followed.
"He's amazing!"
Tianchihuang and Liangmei exchanged a glance, both stunned by Li Yao's domineering aura.
"So you all need to be more respectful to the young master from now on, or you'll suffer the consequences!"
The Heavenly Demon Emperor solemnly offered this reminder.
Then he said, "Let's hurry and follow them."
Li Yao and his group soon arrived in front of a grand hall.
Above the main hall, the plaque bore the three large characters "Hall of Reincarnation".
It seems that the Reincarnation Disc should be located in the Reincarnation Palace.
Outside the Hall of Reincarnation, a large number of ghost soldiers and generals armed with weapons were stationed.
"Who goes there? How dare you approach the Palace of Reincarnation without permission?"
A ghost general spotted Li Yao and his group and shouted at them with a wary expression.
The other ghost soldiers and generals also became fully alert.
"Is the Wheel of Reincarnation here?"
Li Yao raised his voice and asked.
"How dare you! I was the one asking you a question, and you dare to ask me a question in return!"
The ghost general, realizing he was being ignored, instantly flew into a rage.
"You talk too much!"
Li Yao frowned.
With that, he strode towards the Hall of Reincarnation.
"How dare you! The Samsara Palace is a sacred place in Youdu! How dare you trespass!"
"Men, seize this thief!"
The ghost general roared and waved his hand, summoning many ghost soldiers who rushed out and attacked Li Yao.
With a casual wave of his hand, Li Yao unleashed a powerful aura that rippled outwards, forming gusts of wind like waves.
The charging ghost soldiers were torn to shreds by the gale, and those further away were swept away. The densely packed ghost soldiers were cleared out in an instant.
"This guy is incredibly powerful!"
The ghost general's pupils suddenly contracted, and he trembled with fear, turning around and running away.
"Hmph, weren't you shouting quite loudly just now!"
Li Yao snorted coldly, his eyes widened, and two sharp golden rays shot out from his eyes, piercing through the ghost general's body and leaving two terrible holes.
"I never expected the ghost soldiers and generals of the Ghost Realm to be so easily defeated. I am truly disappointed!"
Li Yao gently shook his head.
Suddenly, a very authoritative voice rang out behind Li Yao and the others: "May I ask who you are, and why you have come to the Ghost Realm to cause trouble?"
Chapter 543 Houtu, the Great Commander of Youdu
"May I ask who you are and why you have come to my Ghost City to cause trouble?"
A very authoritative female voice suddenly rang out behind Li Yao and the others.
Li Yao turned around and saw a woman dressed in a phoenix robe and palace attire slowly approaching, surrounded by a group of ghost soldiers and generals, like a star surrounded by the moon.
This woman was stunningly beautiful, wearing a magnificent crown. Her goddess-like aura was enhanced by an air of elegance and nobility.
"Young master, she is the Great Ruler of Youdu, also known as Houtu, the goddess worshipped by the people of the human realm."
The Heavenly Ghost Emperor whispered a reminder in Li Yao's ear.
"So you are Houtu! It's a pleasure to meet you!"
Li Yao smiled slightly, cupped his hands in a gesture of respect towards Houtu, and remained very calm.
At this moment, a ghost general jumped out and shouted fiercely, "How dare you lowly commoners address the Grand Commander by his name..."
Bang!
A loud bang.
Before the ghost general could finish speaking, he let out a scream without warning, and his entire body was suddenly sent flying into the air, turning into a black dot and disappearing.
"Hmph! Why are there so many clowns in the Ghost Realm, always jumping around and causing a ruckus!"
Li Yao snorted and clapped his hands lightly.
The ghost soldiers and generals brought by Houtu all changed their expressions drastically.
They didn't even see how Li Yao made his move.
Although Hou Tu's face showed no change in expression, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
She has met quite a few impressive people.
But this was the first time she had ever encountered someone who could attack her right in front of her without her noticing.
This suggests that the opponent's strength is probably unfathomable.
"Who exactly are you, Your Excellency, and why have you repeatedly attacked my men?"
Houtu, with a gloomy face, asked sternly.
"I am Li Yao..."
Before Li Yao could finish speaking...
Houtu's expression changed, and she said, "You are Li Yao, who once fought against the Demon Lord Chonglou?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the ghost soldiers and generals present were in an uproar.
The person before me had actually fought against the Demon Lord Chonglou.
You should know that Demon Lord Chonglou is one of the strongest beings in the Six Realms. Only General Feipeng of the God Realm could rival him back then.
The fact that the person before us could fight the Demon Lord demonstrates just how powerful he is.
No wonder this person can run rampant in the ghost realm without anyone being able to stop him.
"Oh, my battle with Chonglou was just a recent event. I didn't expect it to have reached the Ghost Realm so quickly."
"It seems the divine realm has planted quite a few spies in the demon realm!"
Li Yao said calmly.
The realm of gods and the realm of demons have always been enemies.
It is not surprising that the divine realm has planted spies in the demon realm.
The Netherworld, also known as Youdu, was established by a large number of gods sent from the God Realm to the Netherworld.
Therefore, it is not surprising that Youdu in the Ghost Realm was able to learn about the battle between Li Yao and Chonglou from the God Realm.
"So it is Fellow Daoist Li who has graced the Ghost Realm of Youdu! My apologies for my rudeness!"
"May I ask what brings Fellow Daoist Li here today?"
After learning Li Yao's identity, Hou Tu did not want to easily offend this mysterious and unpredictable master.
Therefore, her attitude softened considerably.
"Actually, it's nothing serious. I just heard that there's a Reincarnation Disc in the Ghost Realm."
"I heard that this Reincarnation Wheel was formed during the time when Pangu created the world, and it possesses the most powerful and primordial Yin power in the Six Realms."
"This extremely Yin power can attract and draw the spirits of the dead from the six realms to drift here naturally, enter the cycle of reincarnation, and start the cycle of life anew."
"I've always had a penchant for the unusual, so I've come to see this Wheel of Reincarnation."
Li Yao said calmly.
"I apologize, but this Reincarnation Disc is the foundation of the life order of the Six Realms and is never shown to outsiders. Please forgive me, Fellow Daoist Li."
Houtu said apologetically.
"I'm just taking a look at the Wheel of Reincarnation; I won't take it. What are you afraid of?"
Li Yao smiled slightly.
His words caused the ghost soldiers and generals nearby to whisper among themselves.
Li Yao had extremely sensitive hearing, and he overheard all the whispers of these ghost soldiers and generals.
These ghost soldiers and generals were basically mocking Li Yao. Even if Li Yao were to seize the Reincarnation Disc, he wouldn't have the ability to take it away.
The Reincarnation Disc is a special magical artifact formed when Pangu created the world, possessing the most powerful and primordial extreme Yin power.
Even the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi couldn't take away the Wheel of Reincarnation, let alone an unknown Li Yao.
Trying to seize the Wheel of Reincarnation is simply wishful thinking.
Li Yao scoffed at the mockery of these ghost soldiers and generals and ignored it.
If he truly wanted to seize the Wheel of Reincarnation, he certainly had the ability to do so.
Back then, in the world of Jade Dynasty, didn't he single-handedly transplant the towering tree into his ring space?
In his estimation, no matter how large or powerful the Samsara Disc was, it might not be able to compare to the towering tree.
Therefore, although it was difficult for him to steal the Wheel of Reincarnation, it was not an insurmountable obstacle!
However, the Wheel of Reincarnation is related to the life order of this world of Chinese Paladin.
Once the Wheel of Reincarnation is taken away, the entire order of life in the world of Chinese Paladin will likely be thrown into chaos.
At that time, the six realms will be shaken, and countless lives will be lost.
