Xu Zimei arrived at the Ghost God Academy during its millennium recruitment event. Amidst the crowds and discussions about the academy's strict standards and the absence of Thousand Calamities Doomsday, Xu Zimei overheard rumors about the ruler's severe injury and potential unrest among the Eight Directional Ghosts and Gods. Later, Xu Zimei followed a man spreading these rumors, only to be ambushed, revealing the man to be a Ghost God.

"What's the matter with the Ghost God? We don't harm people. Is it wrong for me to yearn for the human world?"

The middle-aged man still tried to make excuses for himself.

Xu Zimei snorted coldly.

He said indifferently, "If you're unwilling to speak, then I'll have to extract your memory."

A powerful aura was converging around Xu Zimei.

Xu Zimei's right hand fell heavily, and the Spiritual Energy transformed into invisible spirals.

With a "boom," it seemed like he was about to pull the entire head of the middle-aged man off.

Apparently sensing a life-threatening crisis.

The middle-aged man became completely flustered.

He shouted, "Spare my life, I'm willing to say anything, just give me a chance."

The aura in Xu Zimei's hand slightly eased.

Then he said indifferently, "You have only one chance."

"Yes, yes," the middle-aged man nodded hastily.

"I came here under the command of the Giant Mountain Deity, who asked me to spread rumors, causing unrest in the Ghost God Academy, thereby disrupting this recruitment ritual."

"What's the purpose?" Xu Zimei asked.

"I don't know either. We are just low-level Divine Spirits and can't possibly know much," the middle-aged man shouted.

"You're still not being honest," Xu Zimei slightly raised an eyebrow.

He snorted coldly.

The powerful force in his hand seemed ready to crush the middle-aged man's head.

The middle-aged man was scared out of his wits.

His tone was faster than ever.

"I'll talk... I'll talk, the Thousand Calamities Doomsday has been seriously injured, and this time the gods and ghosts have united, intending to completely destroy the Ghost God Academy, thereby restoring past glory."

"Before the arrival of the Thousand Calamities Doomsday, this Ghost God Realm was our territory of the gods and ghosts."

"We only temporarily surrendered under his power."

"Now we have the opportunity, and naturally, we want to counterattack. I'm just a small minion and hope the lord will let me go."

Upon hearing the other's words, Xu Zimei slightly furrowed his brows.

He originally thought the injury of the Thousand Calamities Doomsday was merely a rumor.

But it seems more complicated now.

He asked, "How did the Thousand Calamities Doomsday get injured, or how did you know about his injury?"

"I've only heard rumors, some things can't be taken as true.

The Thousand Calamities Doomsday seemed to have discovered a place connected to the outside domain, and was harmed by external forces."

The middle-aged man frantically explained.

"But whether it's true or not, no one knows, but I think it should be true."

"Besides external forces, there's no other explanation."

"In our Ghost God Realm, even gods and ghosts combined are probably no match for the Thousand Calamities Doomsday."

"Tell me about the power among your Divine Spirits and Ghost Spirits," Xu Zimei asked.

"This..." the middle-aged man hesitated.

He actually didn't want to betray his Spirit Clan, but thinking about how much he had already said, it counted as betrayal.

At this point, why be so conflicted, preserving life is more important.

Thinking of this, the middle-aged man confessed thoroughly.

Although Divine Spirits and Ghost Spirits have different names, in strict terms, they should be one race.

Named Spirit Clan.

However, a long time ago, the two ancestors of the Spirit Clan created two different cultivation systems respectively.

Although their ways were different, the two ancestors did not confront each other.

Instead, they agreed to cultivate different paths and see who reaches the peak.

Since then, the Spirit Clan was invisibly split in two.

Half cultivated the Divine Path, and half cultivated the Ghost Path.

Although the two ancestors had no conflict, later generations of spirits continued to have conflicts.

They all believed their cultivation way was the strongest.

Later on, the appearance of the Thousand Calamities Doomsday changed the entire Ghost God Realm structure.

Causing the originally discordant two spirit clans to stand on the same front.

Because they understood if they didn't unite, they would all face extinction.

They would all be under the rule of the Thousand Calamities Doomsday, with no hope of overcoming.

...

At this moment, the middle-aged man held nothing back.

According to him, the strongest ones among Divine Spirits and Ghost Spirits are eight each.

The Giant Mountain Deity is one of the eight Divine Spirits, using the Giant Spirit God as his totem, which is said to have immense strength and incredible defense.

He belongs under the Giant Mountain Deity and came by order.

At this moment, Xu Zimei heard the other's words.

He sneered.

"My lord, what I said is all true, you must believe me."

"Why should I trust you? What if you're lying?" Xu Zimei retorted.

"I absolutely wouldn't dare lie to you," the middle-aged man shouted.

"No, I still think searching your soul would be more useful," Xu Zimei said.

"Lord, you lied to me, going back on your word."

The middle-aged man's face changed drastically, angered beyond measure, but somewhat frightened.

To him, an existence as strong as this, he was just an ant.

The other party shouldn't deceive him.

But he didn't expect Xu Zimei actually wanted to search his soul.

If he had known he'd die regardless, he wouldn't have bothered.

He was given hope for life, and then despair of death.

The middle-aged man roared, as he then had no choice but to resist.

Even knowing it was futile, he had no other option.

Because staying meant death.

If he escaped, there might be a possibility.

But Xu Zimei gave him no chance, his right hand's power restrained the middle-aged man and extracted his memory bit by bit.

The middle-aged man's face twisted, even his features seemed to merge, appearing quite terrifying.

With the extraction of memory bit by bit, Xu Zimei learned the information.

The general situation matched what the middle-aged man had said.

But the man indeed held back certain crucial information.

That is, the eight Divine Spirits and eight Ghost Spirits had long infiltrated the city within the Ghost God Academy.

As for the specifics of where, the middle-aged man's authority wasn't enough to know.

But it was certain that gods and ghosts had arrived.

"Interesting, it's truly interesting."

Xu Zimei chuckled.

He didn't expect to face such a situation upon arrival.

He shook his head and smiled.

"As for the Thousand Calamities Doomsday and the so-called foreign domain, I'm quite interested in seeing them."

With this information, Xu Zimei aligned his direction toward the Ghost God Academy.

The recruitment at the Ghost God Academy was happening these days.

Though it hadn't officially started, the academy's gates were already open.

Xu Zimei soon arrived before the Ghost God Academy.

The academy appeared grand, with two enormous statues in front.

The statues towered, at least a hundred meters tall.

Mortals standing below seemed like ants.
