Chapter 3954: Entering the Underground

he tavern. He took out an ordinary Dan Yuan magic weapon and flew straight northwest in the air.To the northwest, about tens of thousands of miles from Hongyu Town, there is a state city named Riflow....The divine manifestation of the Great Emperor Qinshan displayed astonishing resilience. It emitted a yellow aura, flew for a distance before disappearing underground.

Lu Xia Tian frowned, seized the opportunity to raise his hand and put away all the remaining puppet soldiers. Then he stepped back.

The gray blade came with an eerie swiftness. The Seven Stars Shadow Sword let out a long hum, also sensing the resurgence of the suppressed vitality beneath the ground. Even though the Seven Stars Shadow Sword had begun to merge preliminarily, it was far from being able to rival the sudden appearance of the woman in gray robes. However, at this time, the Seven Stars Shadow Sword gathered the combined strength of the Seven Star Guards, and its survival ability naturally increased significantly. After sensing the flourishing vitality coming from underground, the Seven Stars Shadow Sword flickered, directly plunging into the ground. The gray aura surged in, but the burgeoning vitality that had begun to recover within offered some resistance, buying the Seven Stars Shadow Sword a sliver of life.

Lu Xiaotian also reacted normally and plunged directly underground. With his Huanyan body, he would have found it extremely difficult to navigate this place where Earth-attribute Mystic Arts were prevalent. However, now that the Earth Fault Heart's Earth-attribute Mystic Arts had fused with more and more of the Di Flame Nucleus, Lu Xiaotian could move freely underground. After all, the land here was originally formed by the Earth-attribute Law power contained within the Earth Fault Heart. Moving through the layers of earth wouldn't be any slower for Lu Xiaotian than being outside. And as more and more of the Earth Fault Heart's Law Mystic Arts fused with the Di Flame Nucleus in his body, Lu Xiaotian's speed would continue to increase.

While evading the pursuit, just like the Seven Star Shadow Sword, the power of the earth-based law beneath could also provide a considerable degree of concealment for Lu Xia Tian.

At this time, Lu Xiaoteng entered the underground. He only felt that everything below was gray, but there were also yellow glows blocking it. The yellow glows were obviously the power of the laws contained in the heart of the Earth Gate. Lu Xiaoteng just drilled into the places where the yellow glows were thickest. At this time, through the earth flame crystal nucleus, he could sense the phantom of the Earth Gate city. In that phantom, there were areas that were more severely affected by the evil aura.

Under the guidance of the phantom city's spectral presence, Lu Xia Tian slipped beneath the earth. While it seemed like he encountered many things, his escape was guided by a very clear purpose.

The Seven Star Shadow Sword plunged into the underground, and the situation didn't change much. However, seeing that Lu Xiaoteng was even faster than it, surrounded by the deadly gray aura, the Seven Star Shadow Sword was forced to flee and darted towards Lu Xiaoteng.

Lu Xiaoteng ventured deeper into the earth. The closer he got, the stronger he felt the intense and profound power of the Earth’s Core Heart. However, the gray aura also permeated everywhere, intertwining with the other forces. Lu Xiaoteng could only constantly avoid it, while the woman in gray behind him pursued relentlessly, eager to eliminate Lu Xiaoteng swiftly.

"I never expected that fellow to be the war beacon of the South China Sea Dragon Palace, an ordinary Celestial Immortal dragon clan, who could actually achieve such a feat. It's truly amazing." Shortly after Lu Xiaoteng and Qixing Yingjian had escaped one after another, a surge rippled through the depths of the void. A tall and stout silver-grey puppet stepped out, it was Qinling Emperor who should have left with Sui Pojun's group to fight long ago.

"I also know about the fire-starter of the South China Sea Dragon Palace, but those ants didn't interest me enough to take action against them back then. Yingfeng shouldn't have this kind of power. It was another celestial dragon descendant, the one entangled with Yanji, who truly possessed formidable strength and even influenced the plans of the Buddha Wutian." At this moment, a man with jade-like complexion and clasped hands appeared, he was none other than Ghost Buddha Burning Pattern.

"Oh I've heard of this fellow. He really is as mysterious as the rumors say" Qinling the Great was also surprised, "You mean you suspect that this so-called Yingfeng is actually a disguised dragon clan from back then"

"It's impossible for him to have done this without help. If it were only him, he wouldn't be able to achieve what we see now." Ren Wen nodded.

"It's quite interesting indeed, Daoist Ranwen's analysis is quite good. However, since this person possesses such power and chose to disguise themselves as Yingfeng of the South China Sea Dragon Palace, one can't help but wonder what their intentions are. If they escape from here, and with the involvement of those beauties, it will be difficult to act against them openly in the future." Emperor Qinling mused, resting his chin on his hand.

"You scared" The Burning Mark Ghost Buddha's voice held a hint of disdain.

“It’s always better to avoid trouble altogether. Women should be a little more perceptive, otherwise they wouldn't have driven people like Sui Pojun and Tu Ling to take this path.” The Emperor of Qinling chuckled softly.

“That Tu Ling guy is alright, he's extremely self-serving. He originally came for the Heart of Dique as well. That Sui Pojun wants to protect the Heart of Dique even more; it's the last refuge for his Huayue clan. These two guys are easy to deal with, but those Starstream Hall Master and Emperor Yulei, those two are tough nuts to crack. We might not be able to shake them off.” The Burning Wen Ghost Buddha said solemnly.

"It's not that we can't shake them off, it's that they've already caught up. Tu Ling and Sui Pojun, being natives of this place after all, even without having seen the Heart of Di Que, their advantage here is beyond what ordinary people can compare to. It was expected that they could escape. The Star Shackle Master and Emperor You Lei Zun, two fellows who are taking a step back, can only try to follow us." Qin Ling the Great sighed, taking a distant glance into the depths of the void.

The Burning Mark Ghost Buddha turned its gaze in the direction of Emperor Qinling. Sure enough, a faint star appeared, clearly indicating that the Lord of Starstream Hall had not yet arrived, but was surely not far away.

“Let's go. That young dragon’s situation is strange; it was able to drive back that decaying aura. It most likely has received some form of recognition from the Heart of the Netherworld. Perhaps the key to breaking this stalemate lies with this young one.”

Burning Pattern Ghost Buddha's eyes narrowed. He had known the Emperor Qinling for some time now, and this man in front of him seemed to be merely a puppet, not showing too much of himself in his daily life. Yet, every time something happened, he remained calm and composed, never losing his composure. This was true not only for the previous Starbeam Hall Master but also for Burning Pattern Ghost Buddha himself; he now felt a newfound respect for Emperor Qinling.

Not long after the disappearance of the Qilin Emperor and the Burning Pattern Ghost Buddha, the Starbeam Hall Master and the Imperial Thunder Venerable also arrived. The two had gloomy expressions on their faces. Even for Golden Immortal-level powerhouses, this place was quite dangerous. Compared to the temporary cooperation between the Starbeam Hall Master and the Qilin Emperor before, it seemed that there were more reasons why the Qilin Emperor needed such a helper at the time, and after the other party joined forces with the Burning Pattern Ghost Buddha, the value of the Starbeam Hall Master in his eyes naturally declined.
