The nether soldiers passed through in an orderly manner, causing the heaven and earth to tremble. It was as if they had come from ancient times and were killing their way into the unknown. Ancient energy rushed into the sky!
Something bad happened to Zhang Lin in his later years and his actions were unpredictable. He had entered the Ruins of God and the Immortal Mausoleum. He had seen the nether soldiers passing through and even the saints of ancient times made way for him.
Banners fluttered as the nether soldiers passed through, killing their way into the unknown. It made one's hair stand on end. Ye Fan stopped the others and didn't dare to collide with them.
Apart from him, no one else could see it. Even though Duan De was an expert in the study of burial, he still felt his hair stand on end. He had a strange feeling but he didn't see anything.
"What, nether soldiers passing through?!" When tens of thousands of nether soldiers passed, the others all cried out in shock when they heard Ye Fan's words.
The yin energy underground was heavy and could form some nether spirits. Sometimes they were called nether soldiers but they were definitely different. These were truly incomprehensible nether soldiers.
"I have already cultivated the Yin Yang Heavenly Eye but I actually didn't see a single shadow. Only my intuition tells me that a group of terrifying existences is passing by …" Duan De was horrified.
"I heard Emperor Wu Shi mention that nether soldiers had appeared somewhere … but I didn't hear the specifics." Black Emperor was vexed.
Ye Fan was the most uneasy. The Yuan Taoist Master could only see such a strange scene in his later years and now he was seeing it. Was this some kind of warning sign?
"I remember, I saw a letter from a predecessor. It was recorded that the person with the highest achievements in geomancy had entered the underworld in his later years and saw nether soldiers." Duan De clenched his fists.
However, that handwritten notebook was incomplete, and it was not finished at all. The predecessor was scared to death in the middle of writing, and with a terrified expression, he passed away in a sitting posture in the stone room.
When the others heard this, their hair stood on end. According to what Duan De said, it wasn't strange for those with the highest achievements in geomancy to have a good death.
"Let's chase and see where they are going." Ye Fan said. When he saw this scene and thought of the Yuan Taoist Master's later years, he felt uneasy. If he didn't get to the bottom of this, he would feel uneasy.
Duan Delian even raised his feet, expressing his strong support and agreement. He believed that a monumental monument in the study of geomancy and burial was right in front of him. He was about to uncover an ancient secret, and he would become a legend in history.
"How creepy, but I've heard that the black dog's blood can ward off evil …" Li Tian mumbled.
The Black Emperor's expression immediately turned unfriendly. He turned his head and stared at him, revealing his snow-white teeth.
"How about … Brother Hei, why don't you contribute some of your blood so that we can be more confident?" Li Tian asked recklessly.
"Woof!" The large black dog stood up on his hind legs, pouncing over and biting down viciously.
"Stop, don't startle the Yin soldiers." Ye Fan separated them and was the first to give chase. He was the only one who could see them and lead the way.
The black mass of Yin soldiers was like a torrent of steel, as if they could kill all enemies. The dense aura they exuded was terrifying, as if their bodies would collapse if they got close to them.
The Archaic Purgatory was vast and boundless. There were all types of complicated terrains, and there were countless corpses on the ground. They were all embedded in the stone layer and turned into fossils.
There were all kinds of ancient creatures with sinister expressions, humanoid beasts with phoenix bodies, eight arms and four heads … The corpses of creatures that had never been seen or heard of before were truly astonishing.
The dusky battlefield stretched as far as the eye could see. Demonic clouds curled around it, and it was extremely terrifying, causing one's heart to palpitate.
In particular, the tens of thousands of Yin soldiers marched forward with an indomitable will, bringing with them a towering killing intent. It was even more eerie.
"Where are they going?" Ye Fan and the others followed them for over a hundred li, but they still didn't see the army stop.
"There's a thick fog ahead!" The few of them were astonished. This was extremely sudden. The fog was especially thick, and it drowned out the entire heaven and earth. The area ahead was hazy, and it was difficult to see through it with the Heaven's Eye.
Ye Fan was even more astonished. The number of Yin soldiers was decreasing, and it was as if they had entered a different world, arriving at their destination.
"Let's go, let's go around and take a look."
He was the first to dash forward, bypassing the army of tens of thousands and entering the fog. At this moment, he felt as if his entire body was being sliced by knives, and a layer of goosebumps appeared all over his body.
Not to mention mortals, even if it was a cultivator of the Dragon Transformation Mystery Realm who came here, their bodies would be torn apart, and they would be strangled to death by the eerie aura.
"It's too thick, and the baleful Yin aura surges into the Nine Heavens. It's practically as if we've entered the netherworld!" Duan De exclaimed in astonishment. He made this judgment based on his many years of experience in tomb raiding.
"Brother Hei, I still feel uneasy. Can you donate some blood?" Li Tian dawdled.
"Woof!" The large black dog's bald tail stood up, and he opened his bloody mouth, wanting to swallow a living person whole.
"Silence, where have we arrived?!" The monkey stopped them. His Fiery Eyes shone, and he revealed a solemn expression as he pointed forward.
The fog was extremely thick. This region wasn't the Archaic Battlefield, but rather a strange place. It really was like a netherworld, and the scenery outside was greatly different.
"Something's wrong. Before the fog appeared, there was a boundless plain in front of us, and it was the Archaic Battlefield. But now, there's a huge change," Li Heishui said.
This was a strange change that made people unable to make heads or tails of it. Everything was caused by the rise of the fog, and it was as if they had arrived in another world.
"This place is connected to another world …" Duan De was astonished. They couldn't see the Yin Soldiers, but they could feel that the number of netherworld soldiers was decreasing.
"Brother Ye, what do you see?" Yan Yixi asked.
"This place is like the entrance to a world, and the Yin Soldiers are entering. It's extremely similar to the Nine Underworlds!" Ye Fan was uneasy.
"Since we've already arrived here, let's go in and take a look!" Duan De urged. He was an authority on geomancy and burial, and he urgently wanted to dig out an ancient secret.
The fog was very thick, and the area ahead was very vast. The Yin Soldiers weren't fully occupied, and there was enough space for them to enter. The few of them were skilled and dared to advance.
The baleful aura became denser and denser, and their bodies hurt as if they were being scraped by knives. The netherworld energy surged, wanting to tear them apart.
Netherworld Earth!
Finally, they stepped in. This was an astonishing piece of land, and it definitely wasn't like the Archaic Battlefield. It wasn't a world, but rather a stretch of road.
"A road leading to the Netherworld Earth?!" Duan De rubbed his hands, both excited and agitated. He had seen some scattered records in the personal letters of some predecessors, but no one had pointed them out.
The black land, the gray fog, and the unknown road ahead. The Yin Soldiers ignored them, and advanced with large steps in an orderly manner, disappearing into the distance.
"What's that smell? It's so fragrant!" The large black dog sniffed, and his large eyes were perfectly round. He looked forward with his bald tail erect.
The few of them looked at each other, and didn't smell anything. Meanwhile, the large black dog swore that he had smelled the fragrance, and said that it might be an Immortal Divine Medicine.
"It would be strange if a Divine Medicine could grow in this Nine Underworlds!" Duan De poured cold water on them.
They advanced cautiously, and when they advanced for five kilometers, they finally smelled a fragrance that refreshed their hearts and minds, and all of them were roused.
"It really is a dog's nose. It can smell it even from several kilometers away." The few of them sighed inwardly, but they didn't dare say it out loud, fearing that they would be bitten by the dog.
They advanced for another kilometer, and the fragrance was so strong that it wouldn't dissipate, almost intoxicating them. They couldn't help but quicken their steps, wanting to find the source.
"There's a pond there!" They were astonished. There were specks of light in front of them, and many Yin Soldiers passed by in an orderly manner. The fragrance was coming from there.
"A yellow pond, what terrifying water. Why do I feel like it's corpse water?"
The pond was only a square of 30 meters, and it was surging. It was terrifyingly yellow, and there was a sinister aura rushing over, but it was also mixed with a fragrance that refreshed the hearts and minds.
Duan De drew out a white wooden club, and stuck it into the water. The entire white club instantly turned yellow, and there was an aura of death curling around it. He immediately exclaimed in shock, "This is the Yellow Spring!"
They felt that this was unimaginable. What kind of place had they arrived at? It was already not bad for the Yellow Spring to form a small pond in the Extreme Yin Death Land, yet there were so many here.
According to legends, the Yellow Spring didn't belong to this world at all, and it was difficult for it to exist in this world. Everything they saw today was strange and mysterious.
"Splash!"
There was a splash in the Yellow Spring Pond, and a completely black divine herb appeared. It looked like a divine orchid carved from black jade, and it had the aura of the great dao. It was over a meter tall, and its fragrance wafted over.
"Immortal Divine Herb!" Li Tian and Duan De drooled, and they both couldn't help but want to grab it.
"No, this is the Netherworld Herb!" Ye Fan shouted.
Though the large black dog was about to drool, he also nodded, and said, "That's right. I saw one in the Undying Mountain in the past, and it's exactly the same, but I still want to take a bite."
They took a deep breath, and all the pores on their bodies opened up. They felt refreshed, as if they had received the purest baptism, and it was as if they were going to ascend.
Unfortunately, this wasn't an Immortal Divine Herb. Eating it would have terrifying side effects, and it would be better to die than to live.
In the past, the three old monsters that surrounded and attacked the supreme Divine King had lived for close to 5,000 years because they ate a Netherworld Herb, but their bodies had become rotten corpses, and only their divine senses remained.
"This is a demonic flower. Though it's terrifying beyond compare, it can also be considered an exceptional treasure in this world. Plucking it might have some wondrous use in the future."
This wasn't the Undying Mountain, and there were no great emperor formation patterns here that could be plucked.
However, the Netherworld Herb had already developed intelligence, and it turned into a streak of black light that disappeared into the spring pond. They moved at the same time, refining the entire Yellow Spring Pond and sealing it up.
"Hualala!"
The chains rattled, and clanking sounds rang out.
They were all shocked. The roots of the Netherworld Herb were locked down by a Netherworld Metal Chain. Otherwise, they might not have been able to catch this rare treasure that had existed for so long.
"It's not a materialized chain, but a Dao Principle that has locked it here. It's really strange!" After carefully observing, they looked at each other in dismay.
"Let's take this Yellow Spring Pond as well, and let this Netherworld Herb continue to grow. It might really be of great use in the future." In the end, they sealed the Yellow Spring Pond and this terrifying demonic herb into a small white jade cauldron.
There was a blood river in front of them. It was less than three meters wide, scarlet and bewitching. It was silent as it flowed into the distance.
There was a stone arch bridge over the river. Its style was ancient, and it was unknown how long it had existed. All the Yin Soldiers walked over it, and entered the other side.
"I see the Yin Soldiers on the other side!" Li Heishui said.
The others were also horrified. After crossing the stone bridge over the blood river, all the Yin Soldiers could be seen, and they continued forward.
"This is a piece of Netherworld Earth. Was this refined by the ancient Netherworld Emperor, or is there really an inconceivable world?" Duan De was bewildered.
"The mist is about to disappear. We will leave the Netherworld Earth and return to the ancient battlefield!" The monkey said.
At this time, the mist was disappearing, and all kinds of strange scenes were fading away. Only the blood river and the stone bridge were still real. The last group of Yin Soldiers was about to cross over.
Without a doubt, as long as all the Yin Soldiers crossed over, everything would disappear, unless they completely followed.
"It's like a spatial node. This kind of burial ground with millions of ancient race members has connected the discontinuous Netherworld Earth." Duan De analyzed the reason for the Yin Soldiers passing through.
"It's about to disappear. The last Yin Soldier has also stepped onto the stone arch bridge," Li Heishui said.
At this moment, Duan De did something that no one expected. He quickly pounced over, grabbed the last Yin Soldier, and dragged him back.
After that, they began to fight. Chilly winds whistled, and deathly energy surged. This area was as cold as an icehouse.
Too ferocious!
Everyone was dumbstruck. Fatty Duan and that Yin Soldier hugged each other and fought fiercely, rolling back and forth.
