In the middle of the night, in a mountain forest.
The dense shade of the trees completely blocked the light of the moon and stars, making the already dark forest even darker. It was almost impossible to see one's own fingers.
The forest was very quiet, with only the occasional sound of the wind rustling the grass. And it was in such a quiet environment that a clear sound suddenly appeared.
Rustle …
Stepping on the grass, a figure appeared out of thin air in the forest without any warning.
This figure seemed to be one with the darkness of the forest, and there seemed to be no change except for the sound it made. And this figure was none other than Lu An.
Lu An came to this forest through spatial teleportation. And this forest was the entrance to the underground world that he had gone to before.
There were many entrances to the underground world, but only one was known to Sengoku, and it was not controlled by the Hachiko clan. Although Lu An had left many teleportation arrays here, they were not strong enough to support him now. Fortunately, he could still activate the teleportation arrays to sense the location of the other end. With Lu An's current ability to judge space, it did not take long for him to arrive through the teleportation array.
After arriving at this forest, Lu An immediately spread out his perception and covered the entire forest. He immediately found the towering tree that led to the underground world and moved forward.
Whoosh.
Lu An appeared under the giant tree.
He looked up at the giant tree and then looked around. This forest had not experienced any war or destruction by strange beasts. Everything was basically the same as before. In contrast, the most obvious change was not in the forest, but in Lu An himself. He was a level seven Heavenly Master back then, but now he was a level nine Heavenly Master.
Unlike the cautious attitude he had when he went to the underground world last time, Lu An now had greater confidence and did not need to hide too much.
The soil at the roots of this giant tree looked solid, but there was actually a straight downward passage deeper in. Lu An had to forcibly remove the soil at the roots of the giant tree before coming here, but now he did not need to do so.
Immediately, Lu An's figure disappeared, and he disappeared downward as if he had entered the soil out of thin air.
In the second layer space, Lu An's figure descended rapidly. After moving for about two thousand feet, he returned to the real space. At this time, he was already in the downward passage.
The underground space was tens of thousands of feet below the ground.
Whoosh —
Lu An's figure fell rapidly, and the depth of eighty thousand feet disappeared in a flash. Immediately, his eyes opened up. But his body was still falling, and after two thousand feet, he touched the ground and stood steadily.
Underground space, first layer!
Entering the underground space again, Lu An's heart couldn't help but sink when he saw the dark underground scene.
Living here was indeed too torturous.
Not to mention living on the surface, even the sects that were hiding underground were much better off than living in the underground world. This underground world gave people a feeling of oppression and despair. There was no light and no hope.
Fu Yu had told him that the fourth level was about to be engulfed by the power of death. She had asked him to come here to save people, but she did not say that he would only save the people on the fourth level. If it was possible, Lu An hoped to save more people, including the three levels above.
However, Lu An was very clear that he had to prioritize matters. The fourth floor was currently in the most critical phase, and he couldn't waste time on the upper three floors. Instead, he had to head to the fourth floor as quickly as possible to save people.
. Lu An raised his head and looked at the three thousand feet upper passage. Back then, he was still a Level Seven Heavenly Master. His strength was not enough, but now he would never be wrong. There was a space array tens of thousands of feet below the ground, which enveloped the entire underground world. This was also the reason why the space array of the underground world was different from that of the surface world.
This space array changed the space rules of the underground world, just like the space he entered under the Sacred Fire Plain, causing the two to be unable to communicate. But it was obvious that the transmission array above was in a weakened state, or rather, it was in a state of continuous decline after ten thousand years. Even Lu An had the ability to destroy part of the space array.
Was such a huge transmission array also left by the Star Spreading Clan?
Lu An immediately set off, came to the transmission array left here in the past, and opened it. Lu An had left many transmission arrays in the underground space, including the one that led directly to the Yu Clan on the fourth floor. He had to roughly determine the location of the Yu Clan before he could hurry on his way. Moreover, it was extremely difficult to use his teleportation ability in this underground space because the laws here were affected and changed. Unless Lu An could grasp the changes in the space and change his own algorithm, it was really too difficult. It was equivalent to finding the laws all over again. It was much easier and faster to travel.
After opening the transmission array, all the transmission arrays left by Lu An in the underground world were immediately connected. Lu An quickly found the transmission array that led to the Yu Clan. After confirming the location with his spatial perception, he prepared to set off.
Normally, Lu An could enter the second layer space and forcibly pass through the gaps between each floor to reach the fourth floor. The problem was that the space here was affected. The rules of opening the real space were different from the real space. Even if he could forcibly open the structure, it would not be stable. Fortunately, Lu An still remembered the passages of each floor from three years ago. It was very easy for him to hurry over with his current strength.
Whoosh!
Immediately, Lu An's figure disappeared and rushed toward the transmission array that led to the second floor. It didn't take long for him to arrive.
There were lifeforms guarding this place. They were obviously there to rob and even take lives. However, with Lu An's strength, these lifeforms below the sixth rank had no right to know. Lu An directly flew into the passage without being detected by any lifeforms.
Whoosh!
Lu An appeared on the second floor and quickly left a transmission array on the spot. He then flew toward the passage that led to the third floor.
On the second floor, the strongest lifeforms had the strength of the sixth rank. It was not as chaotic as the first floor, where families already existed. Along the way, Lu An encountered several groups of humans and other lifeforms. However, Lu An did not stop to arrange for them to leave. After all, the transmission array could not directly lead to the outside world. He could not return to the first floor every time he met a group of people and send them out through the passage.
Soon, Lu An arrived at the entrance to the third floor. Just like before, no lifeform could detect Lu An's existence. He successfully flew into the passage and headed to the third floor.
On the third floor, there were seventh-rank lifeforms.
After leaving a transmission array on the passage, Lu An flew again. To a ninth-rank Heavenly Master, there was no difference between a seventh-rank Heavenly Master and an eighth-rank Heavenly Master. They were both unable to detect their own existence, let alone resist their own strength. Back then, it seemed like he had rushed for a long time. However, to the current Lu An, it was too short. Lu An flew at full speed in the air, heading towards the entrance to the fourth level.
However, after a while, when Lu An was about to reach the passage, his eyes suddenly turned cold!
His speed suddenly dropped to the level of an eighth-rank Heavenly Master. The reason for such a sudden change was because …
On the third floor, there was actually a blood-colored fog!
That's right, right in front of him, a huge blood-colored fog appeared. Looking left and right, there was no end in sight. Moreover, it was still spreading outward!
How could this be? The power of death actually appeared on the third floor?
Lu An frowned. This was definitely not a good thing. Moreover, if the blood-colored fog appeared on the third floor, how strong would the power of death on the fourth floor be?
How could there be such a strong power of death? The power of death was also a kind of energy. Just like the Divine Qi, it needed to be produced to form. It could not be formed out of thin air! What was going on? Why was the power of death increasing in the underground space?
However, Lu An was not afraid of the power of death, let alone the blood-colored fog. His flying figure instantly rushed into the fog and advanced rapidly in the blood-colored fog!
Soon, he arrived at the entrance to the fourth floor. After arriving here, Lu An's brows were completely furrowed!
In the blood-colored fog, it was impossible for any living thing to collect money. What made Lu An so serious was that the power of death was rising from this passage. It was surging upward, causing the blood-colored fog to become bigger and bigger, spreading continuously!
Lu An could clearly feel the strength of the power of death in the blood-colored fog. This kind of strength was even comparable to the full power of a mid-eighth-rank Heavenly Master. Coupled with the nature of the power of death, even an eighth-rank powerhouse would not be able to survive in it. They would only be killed!
The power of death on the fourth floor was already so strong?!
