Before the two of them could react, the black gigantic axe slashed down once more, as though it would not stop until the two of them were dead!
Boom!
Accompanied by a deafening sound, the ears of the Hell Suppressing Tripod pierced through the bottom of the coffin and cracks appeared on the ground.
Suddenly, Wu Dao's true body and Demoness Ji's figures sank.
"Hmm?"
The expression of Wu Dao's true body changed.
Suddenly, he realized that there seemed to be another world beneath the tomb that was not real!
There was no time to think as the black gigantic axe could slash down at any moment. Taking a deep breath, Wu Dao's true body exerted strength in his legs and stomped his feet!
Rumble!
Boom! The ground beneath their feet had long been smashed into pieces by the Hell Suppressing Tripod. Now that Wu Dao's true body stomped on it, it collapsed instantly and the two of them fell rapidly with the Hell Suppressing Tripod.
The surroundings were dark. However, after entering this space, Wu Dao's true body and Demoness Ji felt the power that was suppressing their Essence Spirits dissipate at the same time!
The underground space of the tomb seemed to have escaped the range of the Fiend Emperor's tomb and divine powers and secret skills could be released.
The two of them stabilized their bodies hurriedly and Wu Dao's true body was relieved as well.
As long as he was free from the restrictions of the Fiend Emperor's tomb, he could use the Hell Suppressing Tripod to break through the void and escape with Demoness Ji at any time.
However, he was in no hurry. Instead, he put away the Hell Suppressing Tripod and looked up through the hole in the tomb.
The strange thing was that the black gigantic axe that was incomparably ferocious earlier on suddenly stopped at the hole in the tomb and did not continue its pursuit.
After pausing for a moment, the black gigantic axe turned around and disappeared!
The actions of the black gigantic axe caused Wu Dao's true body to frown. He found it strange and felt uneasy.
Beneath the tomb, the surroundings were pitch-black. Even with the vision of Wu Dao's true body, he could only see about ten feet in front of him.
Although he could release his spirit consciousness, the range of his detection could not exceed ten feet.
The two of them descended slowly. They could not see anything around them and it was extremely quiet and dead silent.
Thankfully, the two of them landed on the ground again before long and felt slightly relieved.
"What was that Destruction Axe just now?"
Demoness Ji could not help but ask, "To think that he could release such a terrifying amount of power right after escaping after being buried for tens of millions of years!"
"It probably has something to do with the Apocalyptic Demon Diagram."
Wu Dao's main body pondered for a moment before replying, "You once said that when the World Devastation Devil Emperor died, his skin scattered and formed the eighteen incomplete pictures."
"My guess is that the World Devastation Demon Emperor's aura is still lingering on the Demon Diagram. That's why the guards in the ancient city did not dare to attack us."
"Only when the Destruction Axe sensed the aura of the World Devastator Devil Emperor did it fully awaken."
Demoness Ji was still confused as she asked, "However, why would the Destruction Axe attack us? Did the mutation of the Apocalyptic Demon Diagram draw us here to awaken this Emperor Weapon?"
Wu Dao shook his head.
He also had many doubts about this matter.
However, he could guess one thing. If nothing unexpected happened, the Apocalyptic Demon Diagram in the hands of Demon King Cang Kong and the others should lead them to the location of the other Emperor Weapon, the Warfire Spear.
As for those Demon Kings, they would have to face the attacks of the Warfire Spear as well!
The two of them walked together and scouted the area ahead slowly.
Suddenly, Su Zimo thought of something and asked, "Right, I noticed that your movement technique is a little special and your bewitchment technique is even stronger than before. Did you obtain some sort of opportunity?"
Ever since Qinglian's main body ascended, she had obtained countless opportunities and fortuitous encounters before she managed to cultivate to a Rank 7 Heavenly Immortal.
However, Demoness Ji's cultivation was at Rank 5 Heavenly Immortal – it was clear that the opportunities she obtained were unimaginable as well!
Of course, what surprised Wu Dao's main body even more was that her movement technique was extremely similar to the black-robed woman he faced when he was undergoing the tenth-level True Martial Heavenly Tribulation.
Demoness Ji nodded. "I obtained the inheritance memories of an ancient Emperor."
"This …"
Wu Dao's main body was speechless for a moment.
Qinglian's main body merely obtained the Hell Suppression Cauldron and the forbidden secret manuals within. As for Demoness Ji, she obtained the inheritance memories of an ancient Emperor directly!
Qinglian's main body was cultivating the Perfection of Wisdom Nirvana Sutra and often encountered things that he could not understand. Up till now, he still had two secret skills that he could not comprehend completely.
However, no one could explain it to him and he could only figure it out and cultivate on his own.
As for Demoness Ji, it was equivalent to a Emperor imparting Dao techniques personally – how could her cultivation speed not be fast?!
"May I know which Emperor it is?"
Wu Dao's main body asked.
Since ancient times, there weren't many Great Emperors recorded in the records. Up until now, he had only heard of two.
Demoness Ji said, "According to that Emperor, she was from an extremely ancient era. You might not have heard of her before, but she was known as the Nine Netherworld Emperor!"
"Nine Netherworld Emperor …"
Wu Dao's main body murmured softly and asked, "Is this Nine Netherworld Emperor a woman? “
"Yes."
Demoness Ji nodded and looked at Su Zimo in surprise.
After all, it was truly difficult to link the title of the Nine Netherworld Emperor to a woman.
Wu Dao's main body asked again, "Is this woman dressed in black and wielding a sword?"
"How did you know? “
Demoness Ji's face was filled with disbelief.
"It was a coincidence that I was fortunate enough to witness this senior's glory back then," Wu Dao's main body did not explain in detail either.
Demoness Ji said, "This senior is a woman. Before she became a Emperor, she was known as the Nine Netherworld Pure Maiden. The Nine Netherworld Pure Maiden Sutra that she created is one of the forbidden secret manuals."
Wu Dao's main body nodded.
It seemed like if nothing went wrong, Demoness Ji had already learned that forbidden secret manual!
Right then, Demoness Ji was caught off guard and staggered, nearly falling. The Martial Dao True Body hurriedly supported her.
"What was that?"
Demoness Ji frowned slightly and looked down.
She felt as though she had kicked something earlier on.
On the ground beneath her feet, there was a dark yellow mound that looked extremely abrupt, like a grave.
She harrumphed softly and stomped down heavily, muttering, "That's for tripping me!"
Right then, Demoness Ji paused in her actions and froze on the spot. Her flawless face was filled with fear and shock!
"What's wrong?"
Wu Dao's main body noticed Demoness Ji's abnormality. However, he did not think too much about it and merely asked casually.
After all, Demoness Ji was eccentric and playful. She might have been faking it on purpose.
"Su, Su, I, I … Just now, someone, blew on the back of my neck!"
Demoness Ji's voice trembled and even sounded like she was about to cry. It was clear that she was extremely afraid and her expression did not seem fake.
However, Wu Dao's main body was not around and did not sense any danger nor did his spirit perception alert him.
"Hehe!"
At this moment, an eerie laughter rang out from nowhere, right beside the two of them!
"Miss, you've stepped on my grave …"
Thank you, Lohengrink and Dali Creates Miracles for their rewards ~
