In the blink of an eye, the Hell Ghost Envoy of the Refining Ghost Sect, a middle-aged man, appeared before everyone.

"Greetings, Lord Ghost Envoy!" The ancestors stepped forward respectfully, all with ingratiating expressions.

The Hell Ghost Envoy stood in mid-air, looking down at everyone, nodded with a hum, then snorted coldly: "Only one hundred and sixty-three people have come! I will wait another ten minutes. After ten minutes, those ancestors and sect leaders who have not arrived need not come anymore!"

Listening to the Ghost Envoy’s tone full of murderous intent, the ancestors all shuddered.

Huang Xiaolong secretly observed the Hell Ghost Envoy among the crowd, and with the strength of Huang Xiaolong’s soul now, he quickly saw through the Ghost Envoy’s power.

The Hell Ghost Envoy indeed matched the rumors, being at the peak of the Divine-level Tenth Stage Late Stage, and close to Tenth Order Late Stage Peak Perfection, with a power that could shake the heavens.

Although most of the ancestors present were at the Divine-level Tenth Rank Early Stage, with some at the Middle Stage, even if they joined forces, they might not be a match for the Hell Ghost Envoy.

However, even without transforming into an Ancient Divine Dragon, Huang Xiaolong is confident of defeating him, but to kill this Hell Ghost Envoy, only by transforming into the Ancient Divine Dragon can Huang Xiaolong be absolutely sure.

Just as Huang Xiaolong was secretly observing the Hell Ghost Envoy, more ancestors and sect leaders from other sects arrived.

Ten minutes quickly passed.

The Hell Ghost Envoy glanced around, his voice a bit chilling: "Very good, there are still six sects missing. Let’s not wait for them, we shall leave now." After saying that, without allowing any objections, he soared into the sky.

The ancestors and sect leaders hurriedly flew to follow.

The fate of the six sects that hadn’t arrived was imaginable to the ancestors; they would likely disappear forever on the Hell Road after the Refining Ghost Sect’s Sect leader transition ceremony concluded.

After flying with the Hell Ghost Envoy for about three hours, Huang Xiaolong and the ancestors arrived at a primitive forest where they stopped.

The Hell Ghost Envoy spoke: "Don’t blame me for not reminding you, this forest is filled with prohibitions and spatial rifts everywhere. Stay close to me later."

Spatial rifts!

Everyone’s expressions changed dramatically.

Although confident in their strength, it would be extremely troublesome if caught in such spatial rifts, making escape very difficult.

The Hell Ghost Envoy ignored everyone’s expression and flashed into the primitive forest.

On seeing this, everyone rushed in to follow close behind the Hell Ghost Envoy.

Twisting and turning all the way, the Hell Ghost Envoy’s path was chaotic, and the forest was filled with a toxic miasma that blocked Divine Sense, making it hard to remember.

After a day of flying.

As night fell, the toxic miasma in the forest grew denser and terrifyingly cold, as though it could even freeze the soul. Some sect leaders at the peak of Ninth-Order Late Stage had to mobilize their Divine Power to resist, but even so, they struggled.

Suddenly, the Hell Ghost Envoy stopped and told everyone to rest where they were and continue the journey tomorrow.

Upon hearing this, everyone breathed out deeply.

After resting for a night, the next day, the journey continued.

Thus, traveling during the day and resting at night.

After approximately eight days, the scene before everyone changed as the seemingly endless primitive forest finally vanished, revealing a vast ice field.

But to everyone’s shock, a massive meteorite was hovering above the ice field!

It was impossible to describe the size of the massive meteorite, and atop it lay cities, with countless palaces within, and swarms of people, as tiny as ants, flying and scurrying back and forth in the air above the cities!

This!

Even Huang Xiaolong was astounded.

Unexpectedly, the Refining Ghost Sect, feared throughout countless Star Rivers, was established on such a massive meteorite!

This meteorite was probably not smaller than the Heavenly God Mountain that Huang Xiaolong had acquired back in the days.

The ancestors were also making their first trip to the Refining Ghost Sect, and seeing the scene before them, like Huang Xiaolong, were also shocked.

"Let’s go!" While everyone was amazed, the Hell Ghost Envoy spoke and then flew toward the massive meteorite.

Everyone followed up.

As they approached the massive meteorite, Huang Xiaolong sensed an extremely terrifying energy accumulating in the core of this meteorite, an energy so catastrophic that if it exploded, it could wipe out all life in a Star River.

Huang Xiaolong’s eyes gleamed.

The Hell Ghost Envoy led Huang Xiaolong and the rest to land in front of a city on the massive meteorite.

Huang Xiaolong looked up and saw the words "Refining Ghost City" written in Ancient script above the city gate.

This should be the headquarters of the Refining Ghost Sect.

The Hell Ghost Envoy led everyone into the city, and with him guiding the way, they did not encounter any questioning from the patrolling disciples of the Refining Ghost Sect.

After entering the city, Huang Xiaolong noticed that all the buildings inside were bizarre and eerie, with many having skull shapes for exterior!

Some were organs, some eyeballs, some severed hands, or legs.

Others were shaped like terrifying Yin Ghosts or Ghost Beasts, with the entrances to these buildings being the giant mouths of the Yin Ghosts or Ghost Beasts.

The ancestors, trembling all the way, followed the Hell Ghost Envoy to a massive group of palaces in the city.

This group of palaces occupied almost the entire central area of Refining Ghost City, stretching beyond the line of sight; Huang Xiaolong estimated it was as large as an Empire on the Snow Continent.

After entering the palace complex, the Hell Ghost Envoy assigned residences to the ancestors and departed, but before leaving, he warned everyone not to leave the residence, as anyone discovered would be executed without exception! He would come to escort everyone to the main hall of the Refining Ghost Sect on the day of the Sect leader transition ceremony.

However, as the Hell Ghost Envoy left, Huang Xiaolong quietly released a strand of Divine Sense and attached it to him.

Once the Hell Ghost Envoy departed, he flew toward the center of the palace complex and finally landed in front of a massive palace, entering inside.

Inside the palace, stood a young man, who turned out to be the Refining Ghost Sect Young Master with whom Huang Xiaolong had an agreement for five years later! He was soon to take over as the next Sect Leader of the Refining Ghost Sect.

Huang Xiaolong noticed that the Young Master’s power had noticeably increased compared to last time, now at the peak of Divine-level Tenth Stage Late Stage!

Huang Xiaolong was taken aback — how did the Young Master’s strength improve so quickly!

"Young Master." After entering the hall, the Hell Ghost Envoy approached the Young Master and addressed him.

The Young Master nodded: "Uncle Luo Yun, have all the ancestors and sect leaders been brought here?"

The Hell Ghost Envoy replied: "Only six sects did not arrive on time; once the transition ceremony is over, I’ll have someone clean those sects up."

The Young Master frowned: "Only thirteen days left until the transition ceremony, yet the Sect Leader hasn’t returned!"

"Young Master, rest assured, with the Sect Leader’s strength, nothing will happen to him, maybe he’s already returned from the Hell Sea and is on his way back now!" the Hell Ghost Envoy said.

Huang Xiaolong was startled; could the Sect Leader not be in the Refining Ghost Sect right now?!
