Underworld King

Biography

The Road South and the Fairy Realm

The Underworld King is first established through the realm and materials under his authority. Entry to the Underworld Blood Lake requires his personal permission, and reports describe him as a ruler whose strength is comparable to a Moon Goddess and whose Underworld God Cannon provides catastrophic deterrence. At this stage he remains an unseen sovereign, defined by restricted territory, formidable relics, and control over the dead. (Chapters 293, 351)

The Defense and Founding of Ling Tian City

As Ling Chen prepares to enter the Underworld, the Blood Lake is again described as one of its forbidden regions, inaccessible without the King’s approval. The repetition matters because Ling Chen intends to violate that restriction rather than seek an audience. The Underworld King does not participate in Ling Tian City’s founding battle; his relevance is the looming authority attached to the next stage of Ling Chen’s search. (Chapter 631)

The Underworld and the Forgotten City

The Underworld King governs through representatives, generals, formations, and the Royal City, gathering qualified undead from across the continent. He seals the Path of Shadows with a soul-reaping formation and maintains powerful guardians around the Blood Lake. When he finally confronts Ling Chen, his rage gives way to overwhelming joy after recognizing Leng’Er as the daughter lost ten thousand years earlier; he then hurriedly treats Ling Chen as his son-in-law and allows Leng’Er to leave with him. (Chapters 637–680)

The Moon God Palace and the Shura’s Return

Although his individual power is said to rival a Moon Goddess, the Underworld King avoids a direct war because the Underworld as a whole is weaker than the Moon God Clan. Ling Chen considers using his standing to draw the three Goddesses away and later asks Leng’Er to contact her father during the Moon God Palace crisis. These plans show great reputation and reach, but also political and military constraints on how openly he can act. (Chapters 725–726, 734, 741, 744)

Xiya and the Perfect Moon

After the restored ending, Ling Chen brings Leng’Er back to visit her father because several months have passed and he fears the Underworld King may become furious. Later references show that the King remains deeply invested in his daughter’s recovery and willing to pressure Ling Chen through paternal expectations. He is alive, ruling, and reunited with Leng’Er, though her lost memories still recover only slowly. (Chapters 843–844)

Appearance and personality

The Underworld King is an imposing sovereign whose voice and aura can overwhelm those around him. His public authority is absolute, but his reunion with Leng’Er exposes an emotional, impulsive father beneath the terrifying title: he staggers toward her, preserves her room for millennia, and treats her comfort with almost anxious tenderness. His forceful acceptance of Ling Chen as family mixes affection with overbearing control. (Chapters 663–680)

Abilities and powers

Darkness, death, and sovereign authority

The King commands immense darkness and death power, lays soul-reaping formations, controls entry to forbidden regions, and can transform corpses into powerful undead. His generals and representatives extend his rule beyond the Royal City. Accounts compare his personal strength to a Moon Goddess, but these are comparative statements rather than a complete demonstrated combat record. (Chapters 351, 637–644, 663–680)

Underworld arsenal

His realm possesses exceptional weapons and materials, including the Underworld God Cannon and Dark Samsara. The cannon deters even the Moon God Clan, yet the King refuses to surrender the Underworld’s greatest defense because doing so could destabilize his people. His arsenal is therefore constrained by sovereign responsibility and should not be treated as freely deployable personal equipment. (Chapters 293, 351, 657, 680–681)

Relationships

• Leng’Er is the Underworld King’s lost daughter. Her return after ten thousand years transforms his anger into relief and makes protecting her happiness his overriding personal concern. (Chapters 663–680, 843–844)
• Ling Chen trespasses in the King’s forbidden territory but becomes accepted as his son-in-law because he restored Leng’Er. The King grants him unusual status without surrendering every Underworld treasure he requests. (Chapters 631–681, 843–844)
• The Moon God Clan is his strategic peer and rival. He may match an individual Goddess, but the Underworld’s total strength is insufficient for a reckless confrontation with the whole clan. (Chapters 351, 725–741)

Items

The Underworld King commands the Underworld God Cannon and once owned Dark Samsara, but neither is assigned to him as a cataloged signature item in the article ledger. He treats the cannon as a national defense rather than a personal weapon and restricts who can use the sword. (Chapters 351, 657, 680–681)
