A middle-aged man with a solidified soul body and a fierce expression emerged from within.

Different from the previous muddled souls, his eyes were clearly shining with the light of an intelligent being.

Although still carrying a hint of initial confusion, he was no longer just a remnant soul driven by instinct; he had successfully completed his soul and stepped into the rank of Sequence 9 Wandering Souls, becoming a genuine extraordinary being.

His appearance seemed to ignite a fuse, as the surrounding zombie remnant souls began to gather around him like moths to a flame.

The fierce man's gaze swept over these similar beings, a hint of greed and violence flashing in his eyes.

Without any hesitation, he suddenly extended the hand formed by his soul body, grabbed the nearest zombie remnant soul, opened his mouth, and began to devour it voraciously.

The soul energy offered no resistance, quickly turning into his nourishment, making his newly solidified soul body clearer and stronger.

At the same time, thin threads of a crimson hue, representing resentment and slaughter, began to entwine around him like tiny snakes.

He was not the only one.

"Pop! Pop! Pop!"

More cocoons exploded one after another, and thousands upon thousands of wandering souls were born within the extraordinary order of the Divine Court and Underworld.

The majority of them, upon regaining their spiritual wisdom, were driven by residual memories deep within their souls, the violent instincts from their zombie days, and potential pre-existing enmities.

Like the fierce man, these wandering souls hesitated not to stretch their claws towards their weak peers, starting a frenzy of devouring and strengthening.

In no time, this land, just infused with life, was on display as a brutal soul banquet, with crimson resentment beginning to spread everywhere.

However, not all newborn wandering souls chose this path.

A small number of them were particularly distinct.

These souls, when recovering their spiritual wisdom and feeling the strong temptation to devour others, showed intense struggle in their eyes, eventually suppressing the desire from their instincts, choosing to forsake the quick path of growing through devouring others.

These souls that chose restraint seemed to be guided by some invisible force, raising their heads looking towards the center of the Underworld Heaven and Earth.

There, the water of the Underworld flowed, exuding an aura of death.

At the river's end stood a giant city carved from countless majestic mountains, emanating supreme authority.

Fengdu City!

They voluntarily struggled against the flow of the water of the Underworld, arduously moving upstream towards this city that symbolizes the origin of the Divine Court and Underworld.

After enduring hardships, they finally arrived beneath the grand gates of Fengdu City.

The wandering souls that did not devour their peers and remained relatively pure faced no obstacles approaching the gates; the gates seemingly opened automatically for them, allowing them to easily enter this magnificent city.

There, they would undergo deeper cleansing and guidance from the Underworld Divine Court, truly stepping into the true path of the Underworld.

However, when those wrapped in crimson resentment, strengthened by devouring their peers, tried to approach or force their way into Fengdu City, they encountered entirely different treatment.

In front of the gates, Yin Soldiers appeared, donning Nether Armor and wielding long spears, with indifferent expressions.

These Yin Soldiers emanated cold and powerful auras, and whenever a soul wrapped in resentment approached, they would mercilessly swing their weapons.

A few shrill cries were heard, and those wandering souls who were once arrogant were easily shattered in soul body, dragging their remnant souls as they fled into the distance.

This was not because the Yin Soldiers couldn't kill the souls, but because even if these souls deviated from the right path, they still were part of the Underworld, holding extremely important value to the newly established extraordinary order of the Divine Court and Underworld.

This moment was profound!

Zombie wandering souls within the Underworld Heaven and Earth were granted spiritual wisdom and the opportunity to step into the extraordinary path, choosing distinct destinies based on their decisions.

The entire Divine Court and Underworld was no longer limited to mere reflections of the heavens or a vague conceptual framework.

The Divine Court and Underworld was functioning, forging its extraordinary foundation.

A mythological underworld with residents, rules, and a power system was beginning to take shape visibly.

Lu Yan's will, like a deity suspended in the heavens, watched over this gradually evolving realm with clarity.

He could see the newborn souls either falling due to instinctive devouring or heading towards Fengdu due to restraint.

He could hear the unceasing roar of the water of the Underworld and feel the authority that suppressed all in Fengdu City.

He could further sense that, as this land was activated, streams of pure feedback power from the tens of thousands of newly advanced Sequence 9 Wandering Souls were continuously flowing into his being.

This feedback from the extraordinary order disregarded the differences between the extraordinary path and the Immortal Cultivation Method, directly affecting his cultivation realm.

Lu Yan condensed the Dao Golden Core, not needing to accumulate magical power like ordinary cultivators, but instead, comprehending the world through nurturing the Dao Golden Core.

Lu Yan could clearly feel the extraordinary rules belonging to the Underworld path being woven within the Dao Golden Core, enabling his cultivation smoothly to transcend from the early stage of Golden Core almost effortlessly.

In an instant, his cultivation realm had steadily advanced to the mid-stage of Golden Core, and the momentum of growth had not entirely halted.

But this was not the change that caught Lu Yan's attention the most.

More unexpectedly, the second Heavenly Dao Position, which he had thought nearly vanished since leaving the Grand Transmigration version, began to revive as the extraordinary order of the Divine Court and Underworld evolved.

Like a star that had been asleep for eons relighting, the faint, almost imperceptible second Heavenly Dao Position was being reawakened within the Divine Court and Underworld.

Though this thread of the reawakened second Heavenly Dao Position was presently extremely feeble, the Position of This World's Only One in Lu Yan's Scepter of Royal Authority far exceeded that second Heavenly Dao Position.

Yet, between having and not having, there lay an insurmountable chasm.

Possessing a trace of the second Heavenly Dao Position, no matter how faint, provided a leverage point to tap into higher-level Dao, representing an entirely different essence.

Moreover, Lu Yan was acutely aware that this was merely the starting point of the Underworld path.

Even Anna, who was entrusted with high hopes, her Sequence 8 Soul Detainer rank, judging by the cultivation system Lu Yan was familiar with, was at most equivalent to the late stage of Qi Cultivation or perfect level.

To enable the initial formation of the Divine Court and Underworld, it would require the Underworld sequences to be deduced to accommodate the core forces like the five great ghost gods and Yin Soldiers Ghost Generals.

However, the most basic Yin Soldiers in the Underworld system, their strength at least aligns with the peak of Foundation Establishment in the cultivation system, which falls at least within the sequence six range of the Underworld path.

Deducing an entirely new extraordinary path from nothing to sequence six is no easy task even with Lu Yan's current strength and status.

Not to mention the six hundred Golden Core Realm Ghost Generals and the Nascent Soul Realm's five great ghost gods within the Divine Court and Underworld, which means initial formation requires deducing the Underworld sequence to sequence four.

Within this realm, which extraordinary path can achieve sequence four that hasn't been passed down for thousands of years?

Even Lu Yan, with many assets in hand, would likely need a lengthy time.

"In the Mystical version, all This World's Only Ones are in pursuit of faith, which itself is closely bound with the extraordinary path.

Collecting faith might accelerate my deduction of the Underworld path, allowing the Divine Court and Underworld to form earlier."

Lu Yan exhaled a long breath, his eyes glinting with interest.

As the Underworld path gradually perfects, Lu Yan's ability to restore the second Heavenly Dao Position will steadily increase.

In the future, even if he never becomes This World's Only One, there is hope to contend against it.
