The thick black fog was deathly silent.
What worried everyone was that the fog could actually isolate Divine Consciousness. Most importantly, staying here would cause one's True Origin Energy to drain faster than in the outside world.
Roar!
At this moment, a furious roar came from the black fog.
Before everyone could react, the ground beneath their feet started to shake violently, as if thousands of troops and horses were charging over.
Under everyone's gazes, they finally saw a long line of people and horses galloping toward them. All of them were wearing armor and riding warhorses.
The only difference was that these armors were all human-shaped skeletons, and the warhorses beneath their feet were the same.
"Undead!"
Lei Yunzi shouted.
"Don't move!"
Ye Chen reminded, "These are Yin Armor Ghost Soldiers. I think they're protecting this world. Don't be rash unless it's absolutely necessary."
There were simply too many Yin Armor Ghost Soldiers before them, and they were outnumbered. Once a battle broke out, it would definitely take a long time.
Moreover, the leader was a golden-armored human-shaped skeleton. Its murderous aura was not weaker than Tribulation's at all.
In an instant, the two groups of people faced each other, as if the living and the undead were staring at each other.
The dense Yin Armor Ghost Soldiers did not move at all. Only the golden-armored ghost soldier who was leading the group looked at everyone blankly. His gaze paused on Tribulation for a few seconds.
At the same time, the murderous aura on his body skyrocketed at a speed visible to the naked eye. It seemed like he could attack Ye Chen and the rest at any time.
However, in the next moment, he was stunned when his gaze landed on Ye Chen. Then, he seemed to have recalled something, and his expression became extremely respectful.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh …
He waved his hand abruptly and led the dense Yin Armor Ghost Soldiers past Ye Chen and the rest.
After they disappeared, Yang Tian heaved a sigh of relief, "That was close. We almost fought. What the hell was that?"
The Patriarch of Hell took a good look at Ye Chen and said, "Fellow Ye, that Yin Armor Ghost Soldier was clearly going to attack us. Why did it leave after taking a glance at you?"
"I'm not too sure about the details."
Ye Chen shook his head without changing his expression. Then, he led everyone toward the light outside the black fog.
Meanwhile, a lot of information flashed through his mind …
The Netherworld River, the Shura, the Yin Armor Ghost Soldier …
Everything was built according to the Netherworld. Could it be that they had really entered the legendary Netherworld?
What worried him the most was that he had exposed Su Yuhan's background when he searched the Fallen Spirits Sect's soul on Earth.
If all of this was related to Su Yuhan, he did not know if it was a blessing or a curse for him to step into this place.
After the time it took for a stick of incense to burn, a huge mountain appeared in front of everyone. The mountain seemed to be tens of thousands of feet tall, and the area near the top of the mountain was covered by clouds.
There seemed to be countless pavilions appearing in the depths of the clouds. Although they were damaged, they still gave off a sacred aura.
"So beautiful!"
Yang Tian could not help but praise, "Dammit, this is the place where people should stay. What was that place before?"
"There's something up there …" Patriarch Yellow Spring fixed his eyes on the depths of the clouds.
"Could it be the Immortal Palace?"
Yang Tian chuckled, "It would be great if it really is an immortal palace. If we all climb up, we might be able to see a fairy."
Patriarch Yellow Spring gave him a contemptuous look.
"What's that?"
Lei Yunzi suddenly spoke. Everyone looked over and saw that at the foot of the mountain, there was a staircase leading up. It seemed to lead straight to the palace in the clouds.
However, when everyone blinked and looked again, the extremely obvious staircase suddenly disappeared. What greeted their eyes was an extremely steep mountain range.
When they blinked again, the staircase appeared again.
"A formation!"
At that moment, the same thought flashed through everyone's minds.
"Interesting!"
Ye Chen was slightly surprised because the staircase still appeared extremely strange under his Golden Pupil Fiery Eyes.
This could only mean that this place was extremely unusual. There was probably a great formation or an extremely terrifying restriction.
Just as he was hesitating whether he should go over to investigate, several figures rushed over from afar.
Yu Taiyuan narrowed his eyes and said with a cold smile, "It's them. They're really fast."
The few figures landed not far from Ye Chen and the rest. They were Huangfu Yu, Jiang Shengwu, Holy Master Heavenly Jade, and Holy Master Tripitaka.
However, at that moment, they looked a little dispirited and in a sorry state. Clearly, they had expended a lot of energy earlier.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk …"
Yang Tian looked at them in extreme surprise, "Isn't this Divine Master Jiang? How did you become like this? You don't look like the ruler of a god dynasty at all. If your people see this, they'll ruin your image in their eyes."
"B * stard!"
Jiang Shengwu's expression turned cold as he looked at him with killing intent, "Junior, don't think that I won't dare to touch you just because you have Mad Southern Ye's support."
"I'm so scared."
Hearing that, Yang Tian immediately pretended to be extremely afraid. He then took two steps back and said to Ye Chen, "Old Ye, did you hear that? This guy wants to kill me. It's obvious that he doesn't care about you."
"Is that so?"
Ye Chen chuckled and took a step forward. He looked at the few of them with interest, "Looks like your subordinates couldn't catch up."
"So what?" Holy Master Heavenly Jade sneered.
"Nothing!"
Ye Chen said with a faint smile, "What I'm thinking is, why don't we take this opportunity to kill you guys so that we don't have to cause trouble outside?"
"That's right. These guys look weak. It's time to kill them," the Patriarch of Hell rubbed his palms together, extremely excited.
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, the expressions of Jiang Shengwu and the rest changed. Then, they stood together, faintly showing signs of forming a group.
"You're scared just like that?"
The Patriarch of Hell seemed to be disdainful as he said, "We haven't even made a move, and you guys are already so scared. Look at you guys."
"Mad Southern Ye, do you really want to fight us to the death?"
Jiang Shengwu's expression was grim. He stared straight at Ye Chen and said, "Don't forget that this place is dangerous. If we fight, you know very well if there will be terrifying consequences."
"That's right!"
Holy Master Heavenly Jade also said coldly, "Although we've gone through a huge battle and are slightly exhausted, it doesn't mean that we don't have the strength to fight. If we force it, no one will be able to win!"
They knew very well that if they were in the outside world, they would have the confidence to challenge Ye Chen.
However, it was different now. Their subordinates were either dead or injured. Now, only the four of them were left.
On the other hand, there were nine people on Ye Chen's side, and none of them were injured. Coupled with Ye Chen's terrifying combat ability, it would be disadvantageous for them if they fought now.
