Strong, very strong.
Even from Lu Qingshan's point of view, Dantai Qingrun was definitely one of the strongest in the Golden Elixir Daoist.
Even Xian Huaibi, who had some grudges with Dantai Qingrun, couldn't help but praise, "Dantai Qingrun's methods are good!"
He saw that Dantai Qingrun was young, and originally thought that Dantai Qingrun was just a genius cultivator with a high cultivation base but average combat strength. He didn't expect that Dantai Qingrun's sword skills would be so exquisite.
The Limpid Autumn Sword wandered back to Dantai Qingrun, buzzing.
But in the next moment, a hidden aura began to brew in the empty passage.
Xian Huaibi's expression changed slightly, and he asked Dantai Qingrun, "What do we do now? Do we keep going?"
Dantai Qingrun looked at Lu Qingshan, and asked for his opinion, "What do you think?"
Lu Qingshan's expression was grave, and he released his divine sense to feel the eerie aura in the depths of the passage. An inexplicable shadow floated in his heart, and he couldn't get rid of it.
It seemed like something was wrong?
"No matter how many starved ghosts there are, there will always be a limit to their numbers. If there are a few more waves, the starved ghosts in this passage will be cleared out." Xian Huaibi suggested to Dantai Qingrun, "These starved ghosts aren't very strong, I can completely block all of their attacks, and you'll be in charge of clearing them out. We can easily advance."
Cleared out … Wait a minute!
In a flash, a thought flashed through Lu Qingshan's mind.
He was awakened by Xian Huaibi's words.
That's right, no matter how many starved ghosts there are, there will always be a limit to their numbers.
If the cultivators of the Hades also took this passage before, then why were there still an endless stream of starved ghosts here?
Unless, the cultivators of the Hades didn't take this path.
But the cultivators of the Hades were after the physical body of the Gengjin Tiger King, and the physical body of the Gengjin Tiger King must be in the West Palace. There was no reason for the cultivators of the Hades not to take this path.
There seemed to be a conflict between the two …
After a moment, Lu Qingshan thought of something, and his eyes flashed, but immediately turned gloomy.
There was only one possibility.
Everyone had gone the wrong way. The passage they had entered was not the way to the West Palace.
"Return to the main hall," Lu Qingshan said.
"What?" Xian Huaibi, and even Dantai Qingrun, was puzzled at Lu's decision.
"We've fallen into a trap. ....., we've's, we's, we've, we, we, we, we, of, of the time, we.... ".
Qin Yitian, who had been following Lu Qingshan silently, was the first to catch up with Lu Qingshan.
Dantai Qingrun, who had yet to react, saw this and did not think too much, and followed.
Tantai Qingrun herself did not realize that, at some point, under the influence of various imperceptible influences, she had already developed a subconscious sense of trust and obedience towards Lu Qingshan.
"What the hell, he was the one who chose this path, and now he's the one who's asking us to return!" Xian Huaibi grumbled with extreme dissatisfaction, but he had no other choice and could only quickly follow after them.
Compared to the cautiousness they had when they entered, the four of them were much more reckless on the way back, and their movements were much faster.
In less than an hour, they had returned to the hall where they had just entered.
The four Four Spirit Pillars stood tall.
There seemed to be nothing out of the ordinary.
But this time, Lu Qingshan, who had been on high alert, released his Divine Consciousness, and carefully scanned the hall's environment.
Finally, he felt an extremely weak but unusual ripple, hidden in the evil Qi, and difficult to detect.
"Found it," Lu Qingshan said softly.
Releasing his Divine Consciousness, Lu Qingshan followed the ripple, raised his sword, and slashed at the void. Waves of flames burst out from the sword.
In the empty hall, under Lu Qingshan's sword, a ripple like a wave of water flickered and floated in the air.
Intense sparks flew in all directions, and with a crack, a dark formation plate in the corner suddenly shattered. At the same time, a water curtain fell in all directions.
The sky and earth spun, the north and south shifted, and the east and west changed positions.
As expected.
Lu Qingshan murmured, looking at the hall that had changed greatly after the water curtain disappeared.
"What's going on?" Xian Huaibi was shocked to see such a huge change in the hall's direction.
"Hades left an illusion formation, its effect is to reverse direction. On the surface, we seem to have entered the passage to the west, but in reality, we're in the east." Dantai Qingrun understood the current situation. "So if we had continued to walk, we would have gone in the opposite direction, and gradually moved away from our destination."
Lu Qingshan nodded, and murmured to himself, "I underestimated Hades."
When one first entered the Demon Spirit Tomb, an unfamiliar place, most people's attention would be on the familiar Demon Spirit Tomb.
Hades took advantage of this, and set up an illusion formation in the hall without any killing intent. Its effect was very simple, it was to reverse direction, but it achieved a miraculous effect.
Because if the illusion formation was spread over a wide area, its effect would be more complicated, and it would be easier to discover.
But the illusion formation set up by Hades only covered the hall. As soon as a cultivator entered the passage, they would be free from the illusion formation's influence.
In addition, the illusion formation's effect was very small, and it was just a simple change of direction.
But because of this, it made it difficult for them to discover that they were affected by the illusion formation.
Lu Qingshan took a deep breath. "Let's go. We'll do our best to catch up to Hades."
The four figures flashed, and once again stepped into the passage leading to the West Palace.
This time, they didn't encounter any Starved Ghosts in this long and dark passage.
Obviously, someone had already passed through this path, and eliminated all the Starved Ghosts.
Without the Starved Ghosts blocking the way, Lu Qingshan's group moved much faster, but they didn't dare to go all out.
Who knew if the Hades cultivators would set up some sinister traps along the way?
.....
In an endless stretch of underground palace buildings.
Li Zun, his aura surging, jumped out of a dark passage.
At the entrance of the passage, three purple-clothed Hades cultivators had already received the message, and were waiting there.
Seeing Li Zun appear, the three Hades cultivators hurried to greet him.
But when they felt Li Zun's aura fluctuating, sometimes Golden Elixir, sometimes Foundation Establishment, the three of them were a little frightened, and asked in surprise, "Lord Li Zun, what's going on?"
Li Zun's complexion was not good.
Once his Nascent Soul was shattered, there was only a ball of rich spiritual energy left in his dantian. Because he didn't have time to condense it into a Golden Elixir, this strange situation of alternating Golden Elixir and Foundation Establishment appeared.
"Our cooperation with the Demon Spirit Palace was exposed, and that old bastard Darknorth came looking for us. I had no choice but to shatter my Nascent Soul and enter here to escape." Li Zun's face was as dark as water. "How's the breaking of the seal going? The entrance to the Demon Spirit Graveyard has opened. We don't have much time to waste. "
The purple-clothed cultivator answered in a panic, "It'll take a few more days, about three or four days …"
According to the original plan, Li Zun could at least delay the appearance of the Demon Spirit Graveyard for another half a month. With their progress, they would definitely make it in time. But they didn't expect things to change so suddenly.
"Lead the way!" Li Zun said in a low voice.
Shattering one's Nascent Soul was equivalent to destroying one's own Dao foundation. Once one's Nascent Soul was shattered, it would be harder than ascending the heavens to cultivate again. Therefore, on the path of cultivation, he was basically at the end.
But, he still had a way to go.
Using the Blood Pool Reincarnation, he could reincarnate himself as a Demon, and embark on the path of demonic cultivation.
The problem was, in order to reincarnate a high-grade Demon Bloodline, the Hades would have to pay a huge price, and it wouldn't be easy for him to reincarnate.
Only by bringing back the Gengjin Tiger King's physical body would he be rewarded with the high-grade Demons Bloodline by the Hades.
The physical body of the Gengjin Tiger King was his last hope, and he couldn't afford to lose it!
