Behind the white bone chair that the bloody skeleton was sitting on, there were three bloody bone pillars. At the top of each pillar was a ball of bloody flame that burned quietly, making the already dark space even more eerie and eerie.
At this moment, the blood-colored skeleton's eyes shot out two rays of mournful blood-colored light as it looked at the yellow jade slip in its hand.
"Keke, not bad. The Heavenly Corpse Scripture is truly exquisite. Especially the method of cultivating the Earth Fiend Corpse Kings and the Heaven Fiend Corpse Kings. It has greatly inspired me in refining my body …" The blood-colored skeleton lightly nodded and let out a dry, ear-piercing laugh.
"Ancestor, many human cultivators have entered the Black Abyss Maze. They are very powerful. The umbra beasts outside the maze have already fought with them several times and have been defeated." A black shadow flew in from the outside and landed in front of the blood-colored skeleton. It was a half-human, half-bat umbra beast. It knelt on the ground and spoke in a somewhat panicked tone.
"Every time the Nine Nether Yin Winds weaken, those human cultivators will come in to die. There is no need to make a fuss. Tell me, which sects have come this time? "The blood-colored skeleton asked without raising its head.
Seeing the blood-colored skeleton so calm, the half-bat umbra beast calmed down and said, "From the situation, they are cultivators from the Yellow Sand Sect, the Deep Earth Sect, the Divine Tortoise Sect, and the Imperial Beast Sect."
"It's these four sects? They dare to come here to seek death with their mediocre Dao techniques. Lure them into the depths of the maze and kill them one by one. "The blood-colored skeleton raised its head and revealed a surprised expression before coldly ordering.
"Yes!" The half-bat umbra beast replied and stood up to leave.
The blood-colored skeleton suddenly stopped the half-bat umbra beast and said, "Wait, inform that bastard Gui Yan. Have his subordinates, Yan Jia and the Earth Fiend Corpse Kings, go and help. Since he has come here, he should be responsible for guarding the Black Abyss Maze."
The half-bat umbra beast nodded and turned around to leave.
"Great King, do you think that Gui Yan will help?" After the half-bat Yin Beast left, the void beside the blood-red skeleton fluctuated, and a ghost-like purple silhouette appeared.
"The Black Abyss Mystery Cave is my territory. No matter how impressive Gui Yan is outside, once he is here, he will have to listen to my orders. Not to mention, some of the cultivators outside are probably here for him. I don't think he will dare to slack off." The blood-red skeleton said with a hint of sarcasm.
"Your Majesty is right. Since there are invaders, I'd better go guard the formation core just in case," Purple Phantom said.
"Yes, we can't afford to lose the three formation cores. Go ahead. At the same time, tell You Ming and Asura to keep an eye on their targets," the crimson skeleton said in a serious voice.
Purple Phantom agreed. Just as she was about to turn and leave, she suddenly remembered something and stopped.
"What's wrong?" The bloody skeleton's eyes flickered.
"The three Formation Cores in the Inner Cave are guarded by me, Netherworld, and Asura. Nothing will go wrong. What about the Formation Core in the Outer Cave? We are restricted by the Yin Cave and can't go to the Outer Cave. How about we send some normal Yin Beasts to guard it? "Purple Phantom hesitated and said.
"When Gui Yan appeared, I sent a whole group of Yin Beasts over. The Formation Core is hidden and can't be reached by following the passage. The chances of being discovered are very small." The bloody skeleton shook its head and said.
"Your Majesty is far-sighted. Your Majesty, I admire you!" Purple Phantom said with admiration.
"When did you learn the human cultivator's boot-licking skills? I don't buy it. Just do your job well!" The crimson skeleton scolded in a deep voice, but a smile still appeared at the corner of its mouth.
Purple Phantom agreed and disappeared into the void.
The bloody skeleton lowered its head and continued to check the yellow jade slip. Obviously, it didn't care about the episode just now.
…
The Black Abyss Mystery Cave was a long passage that extended downwards. There was no end in sight. The people of Tianji City walked quickly. In order to prevent danger, a few Yan Beasts were scouting ahead. They didn't encounter any accidents along the way.
The cultivators of Demon Heart, Yellow Sand Sect, Deep Earth Sect and other sects who came in first were nowhere to be seen.
"Speed up!" Elder Mei said. Purple light appeared under her feet and she increased her speed by several times.
When the others saw this, they also increased their speed.
Shen Luo's feet shone with moonlight. Although he maintained his previous pace, he didn't fall behind at all. He also took out a black shield. It was the Turtle Spirit Shield. A black light covered his body.
Seeing Shen Luo's actions, the cultivators of Tianji City at the side didn't think much of it. With Elder Mei and Elder Mo Wang around, their divine senses were also scanning the surroundings. How could there be any danger?
Shen Luo didn't care about other people's strange gazes. He had personally experienced the terror of Gui Yan's Earth Fiend Corpse Kings. If there was a mastermind hiding behind the scenes, he had to be extra careful. Otherwise, he would be trapped here forever.
There were also some cautious Tianji City disciples who took out their treasures to protect themselves.
After increasing their speed and advancing for a distance, the road in front suddenly turned to the right. The crowd followed the turn and the stone walls on both sides suddenly burst open. Countless grey liquid splashed out from the inside.
"It's the grey liquid! Don't take it! Quick, dodge! "Elder Mei exclaimed. With a swift movement, she retreated more than a hundred feet away as if she had shrunk her foot into an inch.
Elder Mo Wang didn't retreat. He opened his mouth and spat out a white ring. With a whoosh, it became ten times bigger. The white light on the ring shone brightly and blocked more than half of the grey liquid.
The Tianji City disciples dodged backwards and at the same time, they took out all kinds of treasures to protect themselves.
However, there was still quite a bit of the gray liquid, and it had appeared very suddenly. Although everyone tried their best to avoid it, their bodies were more or less stained with it. Only a few people who were protected by Elder Mo Wang's white ring, like Shen Luo, who had taken out their magic treasures to protect their bodies from the beginning, were spared.
Shen Luo looked at the Turtle Spirit Shield in front of him and frowned.
Although he was fine, a few grey stains appeared on the shield.
The grey liquid was very strange. After being blocked by the Turtle Spirit Shield's black spirit light, it shattered and evaporated. However, a few grey stains came out from the liquid and followed the black spirit light to stain the shield.
He channeled his magic power into the shield and tried to get rid of the stains. However, no matter how he tried to get rid of them, the grey stains stuck to the shield.
It was the same for the others who took out treasures to protect themselves. Fortunately, the grey stains didn't seem to be harmful. Everyone's treasures operated normally and weren't affected by the grey stains.
As for those who were hit by the grey liquid, grey stains appeared on their skin. They didn't seem to be affected.
Elder Mei flew over and said with a frown, "Elder Mo Wang, why are you so impulsive? You actually used the White Dragon Ring to block the grey liquid."
"It's fine. My Heavenly Dragon Ring has already been refined. It's fine if I don't use this White Dragon Ring." Elder Mo Wang raised his hand and recalled the White Dragon Ring. There were many grey stains on it and it looked ugly. He flicked his sleeve and put it away.
