Three days passed in a flash.
All the Snake Scorpions of the entire Snake Scorpion Empire came to the Medusa Evil Temple under Apas's command.
Many monarchs were only compelled by the might of her bloodline and did not come of their own free will.
But when they saw Jiang Yuan, they immediately pledged their loyalty.
People living in the Sahara Desert region suddenly discovered that the Snake Scorpions that once ran rampant in the desert were almost gone.
The powerful Snake Scorpion Empire had vanished!
At the same time, someone discovered Pepi II, the second Pharaoh of the Sixth Dynasty of Egypt, in the Sahara Desert.
Strangely, this Pharaoh was not in his Pyramid but was moving aimlessly in the desert.
From this Pharaoh, people also received even more sensational news.
The Netherworld War had ended!
Pharaoh Khufu had lost the entire Netherworld!
The news of Austin leading the undead army to conquer many small netherworlds also became known to the world.
The international community was completely blown away.
The Netherworld War had ended, and the ultimate ruler of the Netherworld was the Eastern Undead Emperor!
Many people began to worry.
"The Eastern Undead Emperor has taken over the Netherworld, and his power will be further enhanced. If he becomes a sharp blade inserted into the human world by the Dark Plane, it will bring us great trouble."
In the Holy City, several Archangels were discussing matters concerning the Netherworld King.
The one who just spoke was Archangel Raphael.
"In the territory he rules, we cannot defeat him unless we lure him to the Holy City, where we can find a way to kill him."
"Attacking an Emperor will probably not be that simple. The Emperor's power is too great, and after unifying the Netherworld, the Netherworld King will become even more terrifying."
They did not know that Jiang Yuan was the current Netherworld King, so they could not think of any way to attract him to the Holy City.
Like other Emperors in the world, the Archangels had no solution.
However, the unique nature of the Netherworld King, which could allow the Dark Plane to easily invade the main plane, forced them to take it seriously.
The ocean only submerges a part of the land, but the Dark Plane could turn the entire world into a land of darkness!
"Let us seek answers from the Lord, gentlemen," Michael said.
"Agreed." The other Archangels nodded, agreeing to this approach.
The human world was the Lord's pasture, and it was right to ask for the Lord's opinion.
Michael began to pray to the Heavenly Father.
Light extended from the back of his head into an unknown plane, and the singing of the Heavenly Bluebird began.
A few seconds later, the singing stopped.
Michael looked at everyone and said, "The Lord says that after a thousand years, the human world will usher in darkness, and nothing can be changed. The Netherworld King should rule a part of the human world."
It sounded like the Heavenly Father had promised the Dark Plane's rule over the human world.
The Archangels did not show any unusual expressions.
They unconditionally supported all of the Heavenly Father's decisions.
"…"
The air was silent for a moment.
Raphael said, "If that is the case, then according to the Lord's will, let the Netherworld King continue to exist. We can still rule the human world for a thousand years."
In a thousand years, they would have long been led by the Lord to the Plane of Light.
What the human world became was none of their concern.
The discussion about the Netherworld King quickly ended. People originally expected the Holy City to take action, but there was no movement.
Some people had long anticipated this, after all, the Holy City's power was sufficient to kill some weaker Emperors outside the Holy City, but the Holy City did not do so.
......
......
Egyptian Underworld.
A nether moon still hung in the dim sky.
Jiang Yuan looked up.
The cold moonlight seemed to be the gaze of some creature, and the nether moon was its body.
The last time he fought Khufu, Jiang Yuan discovered that he could not approach the nether moon; an impassable barrier blocked his way.
He had tried many times since then.
Even using all his power, he could not cross this barrier.
Beside Jiang Yuan, Apas, dressed lightly, was telling him about Egyptian mythology.
"Gods hung high in the sky. Pharaohs stole the power of the gods, and the divine radiance turned into nether glow, scattering over the desert…"
Jiang Yuan remained silent.
He felt that the nether moon in the sky was the remnant of some ancient deity.
Although in the West, many legends refer to Monarch-level and Emperor-level demon creatures as gods.
But in more ancient times, or in other regions, there might have been even more powerful beings.
The Six Divine Eyes and the eerie Divine Wood Well could all prove this point.
"And that dream I had in Nazca…" Jiang Yuan stroked his chin.
The memory of that dream was becoming increasingly blurred.
The only thing he clearly remembered was the light red small flower.
Just as Jiang Yuan was thinking, Austin's massive dragon body flew in from outside the portal.
Behind him, he dragged many small planes.
He had brought all the small netherworlds back.
"My Lord, this is my offering!"
"Austin, you did well. When the New Netherworld is fully reforged, I will give you a reward," Jiang Yuan said with a smile.
Jiang Yuan had already decided what the New Netherworld would look like in his mind.
Now, he could begin.
His armored robe appeared.
Dark purple light surged around Jiang Yuan, spatial power spread like a spider web, and the Netherworld King's authority materialized into a scepter.
As he interlaced and moved his hands, the entire Netherworld began to shake violently, and rumbling sounds echoed from the void, like the chaotic sounds of creation.
The first to change was the Soul Space. The originally vast and boundless domain suddenly split into three huge fissures.quietblue light surged from the cracks, dividing this space into three parts.
Each separated space began to rotate autonomously, vaguely showing a tendency to become independent realms.
Immediately after, the Egyptian Underworld also began to collapse, transforming into two distinct planes.
And the eerie and terrifying Nether Abyss remained unchanged in this dramatic upheaval.
Those originally scattered small netherworlds, guided by an invisible force, converged together, merging into a brand new space.
In the blink of an eye, seven Soul Spaces, each glowing with a different light, floated in the void.
The seven spaces were neatly arranged from top to bottom, each layer exuding a unique aura, yet subtly connected by some mysterious link.
The chaotic rifts in the depths of the Netherworld continued to tear and mend, and the spatial laws and the power of the Netherworld King's authority surrounding Jiang Yuan had already dimmed.
"It's done." Jiang Yuan let out a deep breath.
Reforging the Netherworld had taken him more than half a year.
Fortunately, this was shorter than the estimated time.
The first layer will carry all tangible bones.
The second layer will carry all intangible souls.
The third layer will carry all remaining undead.
Upon reaching the fourth layer, Jiang Yuan looked at the little maid beside him:
"Apas, I bestow the fourth layer upon the Snake Scorpion Empire. From now on, you will rule them for me."
"Really?!" Apas was overjoyed.
She had thought she would never have anything to do with the Snake Scorpion Empire in this lifetime!
