    I recommend a great fantasy novel—"Rebirth of the Supreme Underworld Emperor" [Also known as "The Legend of Fengdu"]! It tells the story of the Fengdu Emperor of the Underworld's rebirth and his exciting journey with the Black and White Impermanence brothers. Try it and see! — Just then, a group of strangely shaped evil spirits suddenly surged out from the rugged mountain path. Leading them was a burly, ugly, and dark-skinned evil spirit wielding a large sword. He stood ready and shouted at Zhang Xuanyi and his companions, "Hey! This road... I planted it, this tree... I planted it! If you want to pass, leave... Leave your toll!" "Your Majesty, you're wrong, you're wrong! It's that I planted this road, I planted this tree..." A shifty-eyed imp quickly reminded him. Upon hearing this, the black ghost scratched his head, rolled his eyes, and asked in confusion, "Oh? Am I wrong? This road... I planted it, this tree I planted... No, no! This tree... I planted it, and this road was also planted by me..." The black ghost couldn't figure it out after going around in circles for a while, and then flew into a rage, kicking the little ghost beside him away: "Damn it! Why... Why all this beating around the bush? Whatever the road or tree, it's all mine!" Zhang Xuanyi and the Black and White Impermanence looked at this scene, exchanging bewildered glances! "What kind of thing is this? Are we being robbed?" Black Impermanence shouted at the other side, "Who are you? What do you want?" The black ghost chuckled, "What do I want? Can't you tell? I'm fucking robbing you!" Chapter 88: Black Tiger King Zhang Xuanyi was quite curious, so he asked loudly, "Who are you? What do you want to rob?" The black ghost glared and said viciously, "I am the Black Tiger King of Black Tiger Mountain! You're not a woman, you ask me what I'm robbing? Of course, I'm robbing you!" Zhang Xuanyi glanced at Black and White Impermanence upon hearing this, finding it quite amusing. Seeing the three men remain motionless, the Black Tiger King grew increasingly impatient. He brandished his broadsword, yelling, "Haaaaah... Hurry up! Hand over your gold, silver, jewels, and valuables! Otherwise, this broadsword isn't just for show!" The Black and White Impermanence, their faces turning cold, were about to step forward when Zhang Xuanyi blocked them, then feigned obedience, saying, "Your Majesty, please calm down. It's just money, no problem!" He reached into his robes, pretending to search for valuables, and the bandits opposite him stared intently at Zhang Xuanyi... With a "whoosh," a silver ingot flew through the air and landed on the ground in front of the bandits. The bandits stared at the silver ingot with astonishment... A moment later, a little imp pointed at the ground and cried out to the Black Tiger King, "Your Majesty! Silver!" The Black Tiger King's dark, ugly face flushed crimson! "Aaaaaah... I'm furious!" He pointed at Zhang Xuanyi and roared, "You can insult my person, but you can't insult my profession!" Zhang Xuanyi spread his hands: "This is all the silver I have. Do you want it or not? If not, I'll take it back." "Boy, you're... You're asking for death!" Black Tiger King was enraged, raising his broadsword and slashing it down at Zhang Xuanyi's head. Zhang Xuanyi didn't dodge, raising his head and calmly watching the broadsword coming down. In a flash, a mourning staff suddenly appeared above Zhang Xuanyi's head. With a clang, the broadsword was sent flying and disappeared. "Void Realm?" Black Impermanence withdrew his mourning staff, a hint of disdain in his eyes. The bandits were stunned, but Black Tiger King stared blankly at the mourning staff in Black Impermanence's hand, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes. "May I ask if you're using... Is that a mourning staff?" "Oh? You recognize the mourning staff in my hand?" Black Impermanence asked curiously. King Black Tiger exclaimed in shock, "Only Black and White Impermanence use the mourning staff in the Underworld, who exactly are you?!" Black Impermanence sneered, "I am Black Impermanence!" A cloud of black mist rose up, and Black Impermanence revealed his true form.
