The underworld was dark and gloomy. From afar, pairs of eyes could be seen peeking out. These were the evil spirits of the night, in the mountains far away.
The Earth Immortal's body was glowing brightly. As he neared, he emitted a murderous aura.
On the ground, an evil spirit that had lost its mind pounced forward. Before it could even get close, the light shone on it and it started burning, turning it into ashes.
Pei Zi Yun squinted his eyes, his expression was solemn. He raised his hand and made a few hand signs, before turning into a beam of light and escaping.
"You haven't even cultivated for five years right? You've already become a Yin Master. Even if you're not the best, you're definitely in the top ten. "Pei Zi Yun had just escaped when he heard the Earth Immortal's words.
"Free Cloud Sect would never have been able to nurture you. Let me see what secrets you have."
Hearing these words, Pei Zi Yun felt his scalp go numb. He tried to dodge, but a blood-red palm reached out to grab Pei Zi Yun.
The sky was filled with Yin Qi, and the evil spirits of the underworld started to flee.
"The might of an Earth Immortal is indeed extraordinary." Pei Zi Yun sighed in his heart. He knew that something was amiss, and was on his guard. He waved his hand, and sparks appeared around him. In a flash, the entire area was enveloped in a red light.
The spell altar around Pei Zi Yun's physical body seemed to respond as a red light flashed. Amidst the red light, there were many talismans revolving around. Chu Xia had been observing Pei Zi Yun all this while. Her face turned pale as she exclaimed, "Not good, Junior Brother is in danger."
"Don't make a ruckus." Yu Yun Jun turned around and looked at the barrier. She frowned. Since ancient times, removing one's name from the underworld had always been a dangerous obstacle for cultivators.
It was said that in the beginning, the underworld was filled with monsters. Any Daoist who removed their name from the underworld had to kill their way in and out of the underworld to succeed. As time went on, the underworld became more prosperous, and there were towns and cities where evil spirits were killed. When the number of monsters decreased, enemies would attack and kill them.
Removing one's name from the underworld was a dangerous obstacle that everyone had to overcome. Hence, there were many ways to deal with it.
It was said that there was once an Earth Immortal who tried to stop other sects from attacking the underworld. He incurred the wrath of the masses and was killed.
"Peng!"
An enchantment barrier appeared, and a huge circle of light appeared to protect Pei Zi Yun. The blood-red palm grabbed onto Pei Zi Yun's enchantment barrier, and only then did they collide. The enchantment barrier around Pei Zi Yun shrunk, and a crisp sound could be heard.
As soon as the hand touched the barrier, a creaking sound rang out. Ripples constantly appeared where the hand touched the barrier, as if it was bearing an enormous pressure.
"Humph!" The Earth Immortal snorted coldly. A hint of contempt appeared in his eyes as he said, "Insignificant skill."
The Earth Immortal raised his head and looked at Pei Zi Yun from afar. He then made a grabbing motion towards him. Instantly, a huge flame that was even redder than blood surged up and spread to the blood red palm. The runes on the palm started to change. Pei Zi Yun frowned when he saw the runes.
His palm clenched tightly onto Pei Zi Yun's chest.
"Ka!" A crisp sound could be heard as a crack appeared on the enchantment barrier. Pei Zi Yun's expression changed. He knew that the enemy's spiritual energy in the underworld was too strong, and he could not defend against it. His enchantment barrier could only hold on for a short while.
At this point, the Earth Immortal sneered, "You can't escape. In the real world, your martial arts are indeed strong, and I might not be able to defeat you in terms of techniques. However, the underworld is not the real world. Divine powers and cultivation levels are everything. You won't have the chance to escape."
"Is that so?" Pei Zi Yun watched as the enchantment barrier cracked open and laughed, "Ever since Xie Cheng Dong attacked me, I've been prepared. Why would I give you a second chance? Naturally, I'll have a backup plan. "
"It seems like the power of an Earth Immortal is truly terrifying. No matter where you are, you're invincible. I've personally experienced your power in the underworld, and I've learned a lot."
"You dare to use an Earth Immortal to train yourself? I don't know if I should praise you for your courage, or laugh at your arrogance. You're not afraid of breaking your back and losing your life. "As soon as the Earth Immortal finished speaking, he clenched his fist tightly. Cracking sounds could be heard as the enchantment barrier was about to break.
"Arrogance?" Pei Zi Yun thought about how he had made waves in the stock market in his previous life and laughed, "You guys always think that I've fallen for your tricks. Ai."
Pei Zi Yun sighed and muttered a few words. Immediately, a piece of paper appeared. On it were four words written in gold, "Just like the Emperor Himself". As soon as this piece of paper appeared, it circled around Pei Zi Yun.
"Roar!" A dragon's roar could be heard. The dragon's Qi circled around him, and he attacked the giant hand. "Boom!" The giant hand was surrounded by wind and thunder, and flames surged. All sorts of strange phenomena could be seen. Furthermore, there were golden knives and fire arrows in the air.
Pei Zi Yun was shocked. The paper seemed to be angered and revealed a dragon. It was a red dragon. With a roar, all sorts of strange phenomena could be seen on the giant hand.
Although Pei Zi Yun saw this, he did not even turn his head. He turned into a ray of white light and was about to escape when he heard the Earth Immortal laughing.
"Haha!" The laughter was clear and unhurried. Pei Zi Yun frowned. The Earth Immortal laughed coldly, "I knew you would do this. I've suffered losses so many times, how could I not guard against it? Where do you think you're going? "
He formed a hand seal with his fingers, and the hand seal appeared. A five-colored ray of light surrounded the Earth Immortal's finger, and a Daoist aura emanated from it.
A five-colored ray of light flashed, revealing six flags that were a few inches long. The clouds within the flags were extinguished, and the flames flickered incessantly. Seeing that Pei Zi Yun was still escaping, the Earth Immortal's lips curled up as he pointed a finger at him.
"Hu!" A cold wind blew past, and Pei Zi Yun's eyes narrowed. He saw the six flags descending around him. As soon as they descended, a cloud of smoke rose up, and transformed into a cage. The cage shone brightly, and blocked the Dragon's Qi, locking Pei Zi Yun in place.
"Where are you going?" The Earth Immortal laughed. As soon as he finished speaking, the Dragon's Qi felt provoked, and was enraged. The red dragon slammed its head into the flags, and as soon as the two collided, a thunderous sound could be heard, and silver sparks could be seen flying everywhere. The flags then emitted a cracking sound.
Seeing that the flags had been damaged, the Earth Immortal could no longer maintain his composure. His expression turned dark, "Hm, what a good Dragon's Qi. However, it's worth it to sacrifice one of my sect's treasures to take you down. I believe that the secrets you possess are more than enough to compensate for my loss."
As he spoke, he channeled his energy into the Dragon's Qi, and began to wear it down.
On the altar, Pei Zi Yun was sitting upright. His body leaned forward slightly, and a nosebleed flowed from his nose.
"Not good!" Chu Xia exclaimed. Before she could finish speaking, the red string around Pei Zi Yun's finger broke.
Seeing the red string break, Chu Xia became anxious and shouted to Yu Yun Jun, "Aunt, the red string has broken. Junior brother must have met a powerful enemy that he can't deal with."
"Quick, quick, we can only use our backup plan." Yu Yun Jun's face was solemn as she turned around and faced a piece of paper that was placed on the table. She knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times. Her face was full of respect as she bowed, "I invite the Emperor's Sword."
The Emperor's Sword and Regal Propria's token weren't here. However, there was a piece of paper on the table. The Emperor's Sword had been imprinted onto the paper, which revealed the shape of a sword.
Just this alone was useless. Beneath it, there was a line of words that read, "Only use it."
The words were written neatly and were very eye-catching. At the bottom, there was a small seal that read, "Prefecture Prince Cheng Shun".
As soon as he bowed, there was a "weng" sound as the piece of paper started to glow.
The Dragon's Qi started to dissipate under the glow of the flag.
"Ka" More and more cracks appeared on the flag, but the Dragon's Qi had dissipated by more than half. The Earth Immortal heaved a sigh of relief and laughed coldly, "Even if you're talented, you've still fallen today."
"After the last Heavenly Tribulation, the mysterious force that enveloped our sect disappeared. You and Xie Cheng Dong are both suspicious. Even King Lu's fate energy isn't normal."
"However, there's a difference in power and urgency. I'll take you down first and then investigate in detail."
There was a lot of information within these words. Pei Zi Yun didn't have time to think about it before he reacted and laughed out loud, "It's a pity that you're the one who fell into my trap."
As soon as these words were spoken, the Earth Immortal's face fell. He glared at Pei Zi Yun before he transformed into a beam of light and tried to escape.
A dragon's roar could be heard as a golden sword appeared in the sky.
As soon as the sword appeared, the entire area seemed to stagnate. All the beams of light found it difficult to move. The Earth Immortal's clone was shocked and didn't have time to think. With a single move, the six flags lit up and returned to the Earth Immortal's side. Pei Zi Yun laughed coldly, "Those who offend the heavens shall die!"
In the darkness of the underworld, a cold wind blew past. The sword's ray of light descended from the sky, illuminating the entire area.
Some of the evil spirits who hadn't escaped yet were burnt to ashes by this ray of light.
The six flags were agitated as they floated in the air, emitting waves of energy. The Earth Immortal's face was solemn as he spoke slowly, "Good. So you have a backup plan."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sword's ray of light descended.
The six flags were surrounded by clouds and smoke, faintly revealing umbrellas.
"Boom!" A thunderous sound could be heard as the six flags could no longer withstand the attack. With a loud wail, they broke apart. Seeing that the sword's ray of light was about to descend, the Earth Immortal's face revealed a pained expression. He retrieved a small seal and threw it out.
The small seal was thrown out and transformed into a giant seal. It was imbued with Dragon Qi and was imbued with the Earth Immortal's Qi. The seal collided with the six flags and was destroyed.
"Boom!" A huge explosion could be heard in the underworld as a beam of light shot up into the sky. The ground around the underworld exploded and a mushroom cloud was formed.
The Earth Immortal's clone became dispirited and listless. It was obvious that he had sustained serious injuries. He wiped away the blood on his face and said coldly, "Damn it. Even so, I can still kill you in the underworld. You managed to use this trick once and that was your limit. Can you use it a second time?"
When the mushroom cloud dissipated, he stood up and saw that Pei Zi Yun had disappeared.
"Eh? Where did he go? " The Earth Immortal was surprised as he scanned the area with his divine sense. There was still no sign of him. He then cast an incantation and a huge eye appeared above him. He scanned the area several times and there was still no sign of him.
"That's not possible. This man's speed was too fast. He couldn't have flown too far. Who saved him? Or was there some hidden treasure? "The Earth Immortal's clone was unwilling to give up as he continued to search.
A cold wind blew past and a huge pit appeared nearby. An evil spirit who had lost his mind stepped on it. A "piak" sound could be heard as the Dragon Qi and Dragon Qi that had yet to dissipate was pierced through by lightning. He didn't even have time to scream before he turned into ashes.
From afar, the Earth Immortal's clone appeared and revealed a look of disappointment, "There's really nothing?"
