Long Yu had already guessed Lu Feihang's plan to ambush Xi Yangwu.
Long Yu was the enemy's main target. What would they do if Long Yu disappeared? Without a doubt, they would first subdue Xi Yangwu!
Since Long Yu had already guessed their plan, he would not allow them to succeed.
Before Lu Feihang decided to conceal himself completely, he had already predicted this scene. When Lu Feihang flashed behind Sunset Dance, eight pillars of light of different colors suddenly appeared in the void and shot toward Lu Feihang. In the next moment, he was suppressed on the spot.
Eight Trigrams Suppression!
Long Yu had already set up the Eight Trigrams Suppression around Xi Yangwu. This was a first rank Divine Chain. Even the Early-stage Emperor Lei Emperor's direct disciple, Lu Feihang, was completely immobilized. Though he was conscious and could see his surroundings, he was unable to react.
The eight pillars of light were like the strongest chains in the world, trapping him firmly in midair!
"It's over."
Long Yu's voice came from the side. Nine black cracks suddenly appeared from the side and extended towards Lu Feihang. It was the third rank Divine Formation: Nine Abyss!
Nine Abyss attacked. Nine black cracks tore through space and extended towards Lu Feihang, annihilating him within. Not a single trace was left behind.
Long Yu's most important battle techniques were his control techniques and the Formation of Nine Abyss. The destructive power of the Formation of Nine Abyss was undeniable. It could kill even a Late-stage Emperor in one blow, let alone an Early-stage Emperor.
There were many control techniques. Origin Energy, Nine Abyss Suppression, Nine Trigrams Suppression, Nine Abyss Hand, Soul Seal Siphon, and so on.
Then kill with the Formation of Nine Abyss in one blow!
This was the entire process of Long Yu's battle. Of course, he would only use it when he was certain that he could kill his opponent. Otherwise, it was very likely that others would leak this information, and it would not be so easy to kill others by surprise, especially now that he could not use the Spatial Break Divine Rune.
The Duankong Sacred Spring could be used, but if he couldn't use the Space Breaker Divine Rune, the Duankong Sacred Spring wouldn't be able to unleash much of its power. There was no need to reveal it now.
As Lu Feihang's body was completely annihilated by the Formation of Nine Abyss, the shocked Zong Zheyan was also enveloped by the Nine Abyss Fog and corroded away, leaving no trace behind.
After the two of them died, there were quite a lot of cultivation resources left behind. Other than medicinal pills, there were also Combat Weapons. However, there was no need for Zhang Xuan to use them. After all, they belonged to the Thunder Emperor's direct disciple. Although no one would investigate the identity of the two of them, if Zhang Xuan were to openly use the Combat Weapons of others, it would be too embarrassing for the Thunder Emperor.
Long Yu still had a good impression of the Thunder Emperor and did not wish to become enemies with him. Since someone wanted to kill him, he naturally had to retaliate. However, it would be fine after he retaliated and killed the other party. The things that the other party had left behind were not worth much to Long Yu, so he might as well just leave them in this main palace.
If someone else came to the main palace and saw the cultivation resources, they might start fighting, and those people would slowly enter the Third Nether Palace …
"Let's go, the rest of the journey should be quite safe."
Long Yu said to Xi Yangwu. The two of them moved together, entering the spatial whirlpool in the main palace and finally entering the Third Nether Palace. In the Third Nether Palace, all that appeared were Emperor realm black fog life forms. Most of the other cultivators of Shen Wu world could only reach this step, but that was something that would only happen a few days later.
The only people who could enter the Third Nether Palace right now were Long Yu and Xi Yangwu!
However, this was only limited to Shen Wu world.
What Long Yu and Xi Yangwu didn't know was that when the Nine Nether Palace opened, not only did the Five Emperors of Shen Wu world lead a group of people here, there were also other mysterious figures that appeared in the Nine Nether Palace, and their speed of advancement was just as fast!
…
Zong Zheyan and Lu Feihang's appearance was only a small interlude that didn't affect Long Yu too much.
When Long Yu entered the Third Nether Palace, he found out that there were a total of 500,000 sub-palaces in the Third Nether Palace, as well as three main palaces. The terrain of the Third Nether Palace was a few times more complicated than the Second Nether Palace.
However, this wasn't much of a problem for Long Yu and Xi Yangwu.
"The Third Nether Palace is basically our last chance to improve. The black fog life forms here are all Emperors, brother Long can just kill them"
Xi Yangwu thought for a bit and said: "If we get to the Fourth Nether Palace, the black fog life forms are mostly 1-Star Emperor realm, we won't be able to deal with them. How about we kill some of the black fog life forms along the way? After all, the others aren't as fast as us "
"That's not a good idea"
Long Yu, however, shook his head: "There are opportunities to improve at all times, but if someone else were to be a step ahead of us and take away the Nine Underworlds Crystal in one of the main halls, then our trip would have been in vain. Remember, we can't lose the big picture for the sake of the small. "
"That's true."
Xi Yangwu thought for a bit and realized that Long Yu's words were very reasonable. It was better to be safe than sorry. If someone really took away the Nine Serenities Crystal, wouldn't it be too miserable?
"There is a main palace outside of the 11,000 sub-palaces. Let's go there as fast as we can and take away the Nine Serenities Crystal."
Long Yu said, then took Xi Yangwu and fanned the giant fan battle weapon, increasing their flying speed by more than double.
At this time, the only movement skill that Long Yu could use was the Dance of the Dragon Sparrow. When Spatial Divine Script couldn't be used, normal movement skills would instead be very effective.
It was thanks to the Dance of the Dragon Sparrow that Long Yu and Xi Yangwu were able to fly so fast. Before most people even reached the Second Nether Palace, they had already arrived at the Third Nether Palace.
The entire trip to the Third Nether Palace was basically uneventful. Long Yu and Xi Yangwu quickly went through all three main palaces and obtained three Nine Serenities Crystal.
Right after that, the two of them went straight to the Fourth Nether Palace!
The Fourth Nether Palace, to the majority of Shen Wu world's martial cultivators, was definitely a forbidden area. Because the black fog life forms that appeared here were at least as strong as a 1-Star Emperor!
Even a terrifying Combatant like the Tian Xiang Emperor would die if he came to the Fourth Nether Palace. It was already very difficult to deal with a single black fog life form, not to mention that if they couldn't defeat it quickly, more black fog life forms would surround them, and they wouldn't be able to escape no matter what.
For Long Yu and Xi Yangwu, this wasn't a big problem, because the two of them had both comprehended Balanced Control, especially since Long Yu had already cultivated it to the fifth level. Even a 1-Star Emperor level black fog life form wouldn't be able to discover Long Yu's hidden figure.
With Long Yu protecting Xi Yangwu, it wouldn't be too much of a problem to sneak through the Fourth Nether Palace, even the Fifth Nether Palace, the Sixth Nether Palace, and so on.
Right now, Long Yu and Xi Yangwu both wanted to obtain the Nine Serenities Crystal as quickly as possible, then go to the deepest part of the palace to open the final Profound Palace.
However, after they had advanced for a period of time in the Fourth Nether Palace, they discovered that something was wrong, because the number of black fog life forms in the Fourth Nether Palace was completely different!
Some of the palaces were filled with black fog life forms, and there were at least hundreds and thousands of them, but some of the palaces didn't even have a single life form, as if someone had already come here and cleaned them up.
This discovery made the two of them a little confused.
Logically speaking, it was impossible for anyone else to come to the Fourth Nether Palace at this time, but now, the number of 1-Star Emperor level black fog life forms in the entire palace had obviously decreased by a lot.
Connecting this to some of the information that Long Yu had previously understood, he knew that someone had already come to the Fourth Nether Palace, but he didn't know who it was.
"We have to speed up. Fortunately, we didn't stay too long in the Third Nether Palace."
Xi Yangwu said with admiration. With regards to Long Yu's previous judgment, she was now completely convinced. After all, who would have guessed that someone would come to the Fourth Nether Palace before them?
In the Fourth Nether Palace, there were a total of four main palaces, and each of the main palaces was separated in four different directions, so it would take a long time to run through the four main palaces. If it wasn't for the fact that Long Yu and Xi Yangwu had learned the secret technique to sense the Nine Serenities Crystal, it would have been impossible for them to collect 45 Nine Serenities Crystal in a short period of a month.
Two hours later, Long Yu and Xi Yangwu finally arrived at the first main palace of the Fourth Nether Palace!
The moment they arrived at the main palace, their hearts sank. In the center of the main palace, the Nine Serenities Crystal that should have been floating had actually disappeared!
Someone had come here before them!
Long Yu and Xi Yangwu looked at each other and saw the seriousness in each other's eyes. Originally, they were full of confidence for this trip, but now, it seemed that there was definitely an existence that Long Yu couldn't see through among the people that had entered the Nine Serenities Palace.
"What should we do? Someone actually got here before us! "
Xi Yangwu saw that the plan was about to fail, and was instantly a little flustered.
"Don't worry, let's find some clues first, then head to the next main palace."
Long Yu also had a bad premonition, but there was no other way. Right now, he had to make a decision, and that was whether to continue or to give up.
If he couldn't collect enough Nine Serenities Crystal, then even if he headed to the Ninth Nether Palace, he wouldn't be able to open the entrance to the final Profound Palace. It was equivalent to all his previous efforts being in vain.
But until the very last moment, Long Yu absolutely wouldn't give up.
Since he knew that someone had taken away the Nine Serenities Crystal, then he only needed to find that person and snatch it back from that person's hands!
Although the person who could take away the Nine Serenities Crystal so quickly in the Fourth Nether Palace would definitely not be any weaker than the One Star Emperor, but what if it was some other Martial Cultivator who was weaker, but possessed a very fast speed?
