The black fog was dense, and the white bones were eerie.
On the desolate wilds, the chilling wind howled. A bone-chilling sense of dread accompanied by faint screams seed to bore into one’s very bones.
"Be careful!"
With a booming explosion, Ye Fei was flung outwards, his figure spinning in the air. His feet dragged a long mark on the ground, and then he steadied his sword, locking his gaze forward.
In the black fog, accompanied by heavy breathing, a monster slowly revealed itself. Its lower body resembled that of a spider, yet its head was human-like. A long tongue twisted and turned, the front bearing sharp hooks...
Not far away, several fellow sword cultivators were already injured and were using Divine Path Talismans to treat their wounds, watching nervously.
No one expected that a simple digging mission would encounter an anomaly from the Underworld; it was truly bad luck.
Even more unexpected was that the seemingly foolish kid among them turned out to be a master swordsman.
Ye Fei couldn’t bother with their gazes at this mont; his eyes were sharp as swords, searching for the opponent’s weaknesses.
No...
The life force of this Underworld anomaly was extrely strong. He had pierced vital points such as the head, heart, and breathing points several tis, but to no avail, and was nearly injured instead.
What the Divine City guide said about the Snake Demon wasn’t wrong. This thing was chaotic and insane, rendering various magical skills and swordsmanship ineffective.
What to do...
A bead of cold sweat rolled down Ye Fei’s forehead.
In the distance, a Divine Travel Realm Yaksha was coldly observing, slowly raising a bow and arrow. Because the black fog obstructed it, Ye Fei and his team didn’t notice.
The arrowhead was mixed with "Resentful Copper," engraved with a God-slaying Talisman, and its target was the Underworld anomaly.
That’s right, the Yaksha was indeed a secret protector from the Divine City. This Underworld anomaly was deliberately let in to teach these newcors a lesson, yet not cause significant harm.
anwhile, there were nurous Divine Travel Realm patrols summoned from various Forbidden Lands on the wilds, all for the sa purpose.
In the Forbidden Lands, Divine Travel Realms belong to the upper echelons, yet they willingly played the role of caretakers.
No choice; the dark and cruel truth had begun spreading, soon to be known throughout the Divine Continent.
The collapse of the Underworld and the decline of spiritual vibrancy on the planets is a predicant everyone must face, no matter their race.
So wanted to hide, of course, but where could they go? The Divine Continent, Divine Island City might be the last havens.
Fortunately, this place was also a land of hope. The enormous crisis and abundant Spiritual Qi over this period had already allowed two Divine Travel Realms to break through to the Mahayana, boosting everyone’s confidence.
Suppressing his inner distractions, the Yaksha slowly drew the bow. The impact on these Divine City newcors had been sufficient, lest they truly perished, which would affect his rit points.
But just then, Ye Fei erupted. He threw away the thoroughly twisted longsword, picked up a piece of starship debris wood, and charged forward with a fierce expression.
All that was in his mind was the guidance of the old White Ape.
"You’re just playing with swords, not even enough to be called sword dancing, utterly useless; practice more!"
"A sword drawn without intent to kill is useless; practice more!"
"Practice more!"
"Practice more!"
"With a sword in your heart, all things can beco swords..."
"Kill!"
Ye Fei roared fiercely, the starship debris could not conduct Qi, yet the intent to kill in his sword path perated him entirely. A silver light sword Qi revolved around the Underworld anomaly like lightning, killing intent soared skyward, then halted.
Ye Fei stood holding the sword, breathing heavily, the Underworld anomaly had long been torn to shreds, its Divine Soul completely destroyed by the sword’s killing intent.
The distant Yaksha was taken aback, then revealed a sinister smile, slowly disappearing.
Ye Fei and his comrades supported each other, carrying the excavated starship debris as they staggered towards the high mountains of Divine Island City.
Not until they saw the city gates did they breathe a sigh of relief. The blazing light of the Soul Suppressing Tower, though oppressing, was reassuring at this mont.
Surrounding them, injured people occasionally returned in terror.
So were pale and muttered, "I want to leave; this ghostly place is unfit for humans..."
Others were enraged, "Digging to earn rit points should never involve such terrifying things..."
But more people, breathing heavily with eyes filled with fury, declared, "Damn it, I need to exchange for a Yin Artifact; our weapons are too unhandy..."
Ye Fei and his comrades exchanged glances, then returned to their temporary residence, only to find everyone wearing somber expressions; so eyes were full of despair, others were gritting teeth.
It turned out that while they were on a mission, so truths about the Underworld and the cosmos had been intentionally spread.
No wonder...
Ye Fei couldn’t help but look towards the distant building, knowing his master, who had already resolved to die, was undoubtedly busy.
The Underworld...
Ye Fei looked down at his scratched palm, suddenly clenching it tight.
This was the place to achieve the Dao!
At the entrance of Divine Island City, Princess Chi Liyan of Chai Kingdom strode in with her entourage.
Two Mahayana Realm Snake Demons cautiously carried an egg as high as a one-story building, parts of which were crystal-like jade, while others had beco fossilized.
This was the Desolate Beast egg suppressed beneath Chai Kingdom. After the Divine Soul of the Insect Emperor rged with the Desolate Beast dissipated, this thing lost its spirituality completely and ceased being a threat.
Several mbers of the Three-Eyed Giant Race approached with cheerful faces, picking up and running with the Desolate Beast egg.
They had indeed delved deeply into the path of Beast Taming; the Yin Horse was cultivated from the Desolate Beast’s descendants, capable of eating the flesh of Underworld anomalies.
