The Underworld.
After returning to the Underworld, Jiang Lin did not go to the eighteenth hall.
He took out a high-level cultivation card he had been reluctant to use and dived into the Underworld's cultivation room.
He began to study the compatibility of divine power and ghost energy.
Since that old senior had said so,
It meant that these two forces had indeed merged before!
And perhaps there would be unexpected effects.
However, how to do it...?
In the cultivation room, Jiang Lin sat cross-legged.
His eyes were closed, and he was observing his internal condition.
The dense Yin energy in the room floated around him.
...
The two forces within his body, one gold and one black.
One bright and one dark.
They were completely two distinct individuals.
Jiang Lin tried to mobilize these two forces,
But whether it was putting divine power into the vast ghost energy or drawing out a trace of ghost energy and intertwining it with divine power.
Both were like water and lotus leaves.
Although they stayed together, they were each beautiful and did not interfere with each other.
The trace of divine power, with a slight movement, could swim in the vast ghost energy.
Despite being only a trace of divine power, it was not affected by the large force of ghost energy.
And the large force of ghost energy seemed to have no temper.
Apart from not being able to merge, the two forces were very harmonious no matter how they were operated.
Like two calm old men sitting together for afternoon tea.
"..."
Jiang Lin tried to use the two forces again, divine power in his left hand and ghost energy in his right.
The two hands slowly approached, approached...
The result was that the two forces were squeezed into a pie, but they still did not merge.
Jiang Lin withdrew the two forces.
After a moment of thought, he tried to directly collide the two forces.
The colliding ghost energy and divine power were like two bouncy balls.
They bounced off each other without exploding.
Seeing this, he opened his storage bag and chose a box-shaped ghost artifact.
He input both forces into it.
Then he observed,
Even when confined in the same ghost artifact, they still lived their own lives.
Harmonious, yet completely independent.
...
As Jiang Lin tried again and again, time quietly passed into the next day.
The work ledger assigned tasks and automatically flew out from his sleeve.
Reminding the holder that the day's work had begun.
Jiang Lin only then came back to his senses.
"It's already the second day?"
He took the work ledger and assigned the information for receiving souls today.
Then he activated the automatic assignment mode.
The information on the Soul Reception Ledger did not appear at the same time.
Sometimes there were unexpected sudden deaths of humans, whose information was sniffed out by hellhounds.
Then it was temporarily transmitted to the relevant ghost messengers, and then transmitted by the relevant ghost messengers to the work ledgers of each captain.
But the captains could not always have time to pay attention to the work ledger.
Therefore, if the information of the souls that appeared was not assigned for a long time.
The work ledger would begin to assign them automatically.
Starting from the ghost messenger with the work number 'one' in the eighteenth team, assigning them one by one.
This was also a way to avoid the situation where souls were not received by ghost messengers.
It is said that in the early records of the ghost messenger work ledger, there were many cases of work being delayed due to the captain not having time to assign tasks.
Later, it was gradually improved to its current state.
After adjusting the work matters, Jiang Lin once again devoted himself to the research of the two forces.
In the eighteenth hall.
More than a hundred Bai Wuchang had already arrived.
Because the captain had said that he would be away for a few days.
So, when they saw the information appearing on the Soul Reception Ledger.
The team members did not think much of it.
Anyway, according to the captain's nature, he was either grinding or on the way to grinding.
Even on vacation, he came up with a new cultivation method for them.
At this moment, he was probably either cultivating or doing some mission.
"Let's go, time to work."
"I hope the captain doesn't bring any souvenirs back this time."
"Yesterday, others from other teams were begging us not to grind so hard, but it seems hopeless..."
Each of them glanced at the Soul Reception Ledger, muttered a few words.
And then flew out of the eighteenth hall.
Entering the new day's work.
On the way to work, the team members sometimes encountered the machine ball and Xu Nan who were out on missions.
Originally, they thought they would help if they could.
After all, they belonged to the captain's family.
However, they did not expect that those two little guys did not need any help at all.
The machine ball even said: "The mission you chose yourself, you have to finish it even if you crawl!"
Xu Nan: "..."
Who was the one who ran the furthest just now?
That being said, Xu Nan was still quite surprised by the growth shown by the machine ball.
Before the Rainbow Egg was still around.
When they went to the villa on a mission, the machine ball's small bomb almost wiped out their allies.
But now, it could handle itself with ease among many ghosts and monsters.
Whether it was speed, strength, or reaction ability, all had greatly increased.
The modified machinery on its body was also more practical.
...
At this moment, Xu Nan and the machine ball were in the sky above a secluded highway.
On both sides of the highway, one side was mountains, and the other was a cliff.
At a glance, it was bottomless.
Pitch black.
In the darkness, something seemed to be moving.
The machine ball asked, "Is this the place?"
Xu Nan: "Yes."
The mission they had taken was to clear the accumulated 'ghosts' here.
However, these ghosts were different from ordinary ghosts.
They were born from the accumulation of various resentments and malice.
Just like a house that has been around for a long time will accumulate dust.
They were mindless and soulless.
Only the most primitive instincts.
For example: snatching food, doing evil.
Even devouring each other.
In the Underworld, they were also called 'Three-No Ghosts'.
One or two of these Three-No Ghosts were not a threat.
But if too many accumulated, they could easily cause trouble.
"There are quite a lot of them..."
The machine ball attached itself and looked down.
Below, ghost shadows were moving.
Some looked like humans, some like monsters.
But all of them were pitch black, and where their features should have been, there were only three empty black holes.
They were the perfect prototypes for horror novels.
"Are you ready?" The machine ball put its hands on its hips and retracted its gaze.
It glanced sideways at Xu Nan.
Xu Nan nodded and took two steps back.
"Then let's start the battle!"
The machine ball said excitedly, and jumped back a considerable distance.
Its hands flipped, and ten small iron balls appeared between its fingers.
With a flick of its hands, the ten iron balls fell into the cliff below.
Landing on the moving ghost shadows.
Boom—
Boom, boom, boom—
A series of explosions came from below.
Countless ghost shadows were blown away, and even the surging Yin energy below was temporarily dispersed.
Revealing the Three-No Ghosts below.
They subconsciously raised their heads, revealing the three empty black holes on their faces.
Their lair had been blown up.
The Three-No Ghosts immediately let out strange cries, clawing at the mountain walls and surging upwards.
Then they leaped into the air and pounced towards Xu Nan and the machine ball.
