Mortal: I, Li Feiyu, a cultivator of attributes!

"May I ask, fellow Daoist, how can we break the seal?" Li Feiyu pressed.

The man in the golden robe raised his hand and pointed to a mountain peak not far away.

"There is a Netherworld Peak over there, and it is said that there is a Netherworld Token inside. Only by obtaining the Netherworld Token can the seal be broken."

"The Netherworld Token? Fellow Daoist, do you know what it looks like?"

The man in the golden robe shook his head and then let out a sigh.

"I have never seen it in all these years. None of those who went to Youming Peak before have ever returned alive."

Li Feiyu and the others looked in the direction the man in the golden robe was pointing. They saw that the mountain peak had a strange terrain and was surrounded by eerie atmosphere. Occasionally, mournful cries could be heard coming from it.

Li Feiyu took a deep breath, cupped his hands, and said, "Thank you for your guidance, fellow Daoist. May I ask how to address you?"

The man in the golden robe smiled slightly: "My name is Xuan Yangzi, and I am the cultivator who guards this place. If I hadn't sensed your spiritual energy fluctuations, I wouldn't have shown myself."

Upon hearing this, Han Li's eyes flashed with curiosity, and he asked, "Senior, this place has already been sealed, so why are you still guarding it?"

A flicker of sadness crossed the man in the golden robe's eyes, followed by a bitter smile as he replied, "It's a long story."

"Although the Netherworld Ancestor was eventually sealed, many predecessors died in this battle, including my master. For the greater good, my master was willing to sacrifice his own life to seal the Netherworld Ancestor. Before he died, my master repeatedly instructed that someone must be sent to guard this place to prevent any further trouble. Since then, I have chosen to stay here and have never left."

After hearing these words, Li Feiyu felt great admiration for the man in the golden robe and repeatedly praised him, saying, "Fellow Daoist, your actions are truly admirable."

"Not at all, it's just my duty," the man in the golden robe replied with a slight wave of his hand.

"Since you came here by chance, we can be considered to have a connection. However, I still have to remind you that the environment in this Netherworld Peak is unpredictable and there are countless ferocious beasts. You must be very careful."

"We are deeply grateful and will never forget your help today if we are able to leave this place safely," Li Feiyu replied sincerely.

Afterwards, Han Li and the other two also cupped their hands in thanks and said in unison, "Thank you, Senior Xuan Yangzi!"

The man in the golden robe smiled and nodded, then waved his hand gently. A flash of golden light appeared, and he vanished from their sight in an instant.

The four gazed at the Netherworld Peak not far away, waiting for Li Feiyu to give the order. After a short while, Li Feiyu spoke, "Time is of the essence, let's go."

The four of them did not linger any longer and followed a small path toward Netherworld Peak.

The path was surrounded by weeds, but traces of the path were still faintly visible, suggesting that, as Xuan Yangzi had said, other people had visited Youming Peak before.

Did all these people come here "by accident"? Or did some of them come specifically for this "Netherworld Decree"?
Li Feiyu was deep in thought when Han Li's voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Master, was that senior named Xuan Yangzi a righteous person? Is what he said credible?" Han Li frowned slightly, his eyes showing a hint of doubt and caution, and asked.

Li Feiyu looked at Han Li and couldn't help but feel a sense of relief. After so many things, this simpleton had finally developed his own thoughts and would no longer trust anyone so easily as before. This made Li Feiyu feel gratified.

“His spiritual energy is pure, without any evil aura. He didn’t deliberately conceal anything when recounting the events of the Netherworld Ancestor. Furthermore, he has a deep understanding of the situation here. All these signs indicate that what he said is true,” Li Feiyu replied after analyzing the situation.

After listening, Han Li nodded, seemingly lost in thought.

The next second, Li Feiyu changed the subject, and continued seriously, "However, do you remember what your master taught you? You can never be too careful. Even if he tells us how to break the seal, we must still act cautiously, understand?"

"I understand, Master!"

At this moment, Yin Po immediately came over and followed Li Feiyu.

“Whether he’s telling the truth or not, we’ll know everything once we get to that peak. If his so-called 'decree' can really get us out of this hellhole, then we can think about how to thank him. Am I right, Master?” Yin Po’s eyes darted around, his cleverness being fully observed by Li Feiyu.

Li Feiyu smiled helplessly: "Yes, yes, you little rascal."

Before long, the four arrived at the foot of Youming Peak.

Looking around, the forest vegetation is exceptionally dense and tall, with some trees so tall that you can't even see their tops. It gives you the illusion that if they were allowed to continue growing, they might reach the same height as the clouds in the sky.

"Wait a moment."

Li Feiyu stopped the group and used his spiritual sense to search the area. Although he didn't find anything unusual, he had a bad feeling, as if there were hidden secrets and dangers inside. (End of Chapter)
