Chapter 480 River of Death!
A dazzling burst of runic energy erupted, and under Xiao Bieli's strike, the Yaksha's figure swayed precariously, seemingly on the verge of collapse.
Heaven and earth trembled.
The surging death energy here was dispersed, and countless runes on the stone gate went out and then lit up again, constantly being created and destroyed.
Click!
A crisp sound was heard.
The illusory Yaksha ultimately failed to block Xiao Bieli's strike, and a crack appeared on its massive body. As the crack appeared on the Yaksha's body, cracks also appeared on the stone gate.
Click!
Click!
The cracks on the stone gate continued to increase, until they reached their limit.
boom!
The stone gate suddenly burst open.
Endless death energy erupted from the stone gate, rushing into the chaos, impacting even the chaos itself wherever it passed.
boom!
Rumble!
Xiao Bieli's terrifying aura surged, protecting the Mo Qilin and the old woman.
Even so,
The black Qilin's body trembled slightly.
As the stone gate burst open, the space behind it was revealed to them. A long river formed from death energy meandered and surged out from the stone gate, its end nowhere in sight.
However, the Ink Qilin could sense that there was a terrifying danger within this river of deathly energy.
Even the old woman looked surprised and whispered:
"Why does it feel like the end of this river leads to the legendary Netherworld Hell? That place of extreme yin and death?"
"However, such a place is a dead end for other living beings, but for the Netherworld Clan, it is not much different from the most top-tier blessed lands."
"Such a place exists within the chaos?"
"The Demon Emperor once came to the Chaos, did he not find this place?"
"Or is there something deep within this River of Death that even the Demon Emperor fears?"
Xiao Bieli said calmly:
"We'll know once we go inside and take a look!"
After speaking, Xiao Bieli paused, turned to look at the old woman, and said:
"Fellow Daoist once followed the Demon Emperor and Demon Empress. I wonder if they left behind any Immortal Emperor Scriptures before entering the Ancient Path of Creation?"
"Fellow Daoist, rest assured, I am willing to exchange something of equal value for it, and I will not let you suffer a loss."
Now that he has plundered the three top forces of the Immortal Realm—the Ancient City of Creation, the Ancient God Clan, and the Light Clan—he is incredibly wealthy and powerful, and he possesses items of comparable value to Immortal Emperor scriptures.
The old phoenix hasn't shown any hostility towards him yet, and he doesn't mind giving the old phoenix some benefits in exchange for the Immortal Emperor's Scripture.
The old woman shook her head:
"The Demon Queen was probably planning to return from the Ancient Path of Creation after finding the Crown Prince, so the Demon Emperor did not leave any legacy in the Demon Court."
"However, I have seen several incomplete imperial scriptures before, and with the two found in the Hanging Ridge in recent years, there are six incomplete imperial scriptures."
"If you are interested, I will give it to you."
The old woman raised her hand, and several scrolls of scriptures radiating powerful Daoist energy floated in front of Xiao Bieli.
Xiao Bieli didn't stand on ceremony and simply put away the scrolls of scriptures.
"I've wiped the slate clean of all my previous grudges with Hanging Ridge!"
Xiao Bieli made no promises to the old phoenix. If any forces targeted the Hanging Ridge, he would help once or twice if he could, but if there was danger, he would naturally not step forward.
"go!"
Xiao Bieli sat back on the back of the Mo Qilin. The ancient ancestor was dangling from behind the Mo Qilin by a Dao artifact rope and was dragged along. He was occasionally kicked by the Mo Qilin's hind hooves, leaving him bruised and swollen.
The old phoenix followed behind the black qilin, looking at the ancient ancestor, and felt a pang of sympathy.
This ancient ancestor was considered one of the most outstanding disciples among the ancient ancestors, and even in the entire Immortal Realm, he was a top-tier expert. Yet now he was being treated like this...
The ancient ancestor had approached him before, but fortunately, he had a feud with the Underworld Clan and did not agree.
Otherwise, his fate might not have been much better than that of the ancient ancestor.
The black Qilin was very fast, rushing towards the end of the River of Death. With Xiao Bieli's aura protecting it, the dense death energy had no effect on the black Qilin at all.
"Ok?"
Suddenly, the old phoenix frowned.
The command token that had been hanging above her head emitted a faint ripple and disappeared directly into the River of Death.
Click!
Click!
Click!
Skeletal figures were swept by the ripples and instantly turned into dust.
At their feet, in the River of Death, countless bones destined for the Netherworld were reduced to dust as the ripples from the talisman washed over them.
However, the old phoenix's expression turned grim. Directly in front of them, a massive, lion-shaped corpse completely blocked their path.
The corpse exuded a faint aura of immortality; even though it had perished for countless years, the aura emanating from it was still chilling.
"Lion Commander!"
The old phoenix sighed softly.
This decaying corpse is the body of her old friend, a powerful being who has followed the Demon Queen for many years. Before she became a Celestial Venerable, she often received guidance from this person.
The person in charge of guarding the ancestral tomb of the Phoenix Clan was the Lion General, a near-Immortal Emperor at the peak. After the ancestral tomb was robbed, the Lion General disappeared without a trace, and it seems that he was killed at that time.
It's just unclear why they weren't transformed into beings of the underworld.
"Little phoenix, go back!"
This is not a place for you!
The decaying lion general's mouth was slightly open, and a sound came from his mouth.
"You are not the Lion Commander, and you are not someone who can call out to the Little Phoenix!" the old phoenix said coldly.
boom!
The command token above her head emitted a blinding light, blasting towards the lion general's enormous corpse.
This time, the old phoenix held nothing back, maximizing the power of the talisman left by the Demon Emperor, unleashing a force comparable to a strike from an Immortal Emperor.
Even if she had to destroy the body of her deceased loved one, she would not want it to be transformed into a member of the underworld.
"Roar!"
The Lion Commander let out a huge roar, and was then enveloped by the dazzling light emanating from the Demon Emperor's Talisman, which dissipated instantly. The dazzling light from the talisman rushed directly into the depths of the River of Death.
The Sea of Death was completely blasted open, revealing the dense skeletons at the bottom of the river.
Among these skeletons were many beings exuding an aura of immortality, which made Mo Qilin's scalp tingle. The number of skeletons was simply too great, and they were all from powerful beings. Even if all the experts above the Heavenly Venerable Realm in the entire Immortal Realm were combined, they probably couldn't match the number of these skeletons.
How many powerful figures did the Underworld Emperor harvest and bury beneath the River of Death?
Or is it that the River of Death has nothing to do with the Underworld Emperor, but was collected by powerful members of the Underworld Clan before the Underworld Emperor?
How many powerful beings among the Underworld Clan have been transformed into members of the Underworld Clan?
boom!
Rumble!
The River of Death seemed to be enraged by the old phoenix's attack, and its waves became turbulent.
"Pretend to be a ghost!"
"Rather than be transformed by death energy, it's better to destroy it directly!"
The old phoenix spoke indifferently.
boom!
The Demon Emperor's Token was activated once again, unleashing a terrifying surge of energy.
The bones of the corpses in the river of death turned to dust!
