Shi Ji poked half her body out of the stone coffin and said.

The terrifying being roared in fury, "Boy, you're courting death! I'll tear you to pieces right now!"

The terrifying being roared in extreme rage.

He opened his mouth and exhaled a cloud of black mist.

The black mist quickly condensed into a jet-black scythe.

The black scythe gleamed with a chilling light, emanating a bone-chilling coldness.

The sickle slashed at the stone coffin with incredible speed, striking the surface of the stone coffin in the blink of an eye.

The sound of metal clashing rang out as the black scythe collided with the stone coffin, scattering sparks.

But the stone coffin remained completely undamaged.

Shi Ji sneered, "Don't waste your time. Unless you can break the seal on the stone coffin, you will never be able to break through its defenses!"

The terrifying being chuckled sinisterly, "Although the stone coffin has amazing defensive capabilities, you cannot maintain its current state indefinitely. You are merely hiding inside temporarily!"

"Once I break the seal on the stone coffin, I will drag you out and torture you to death!"

Shi Ji said, "I'll be watching! I hope you won't disappoint me!"

Shi Ji entered seclusion again.

He continued to refine the blood of the demon.

A day passes in the blink of an eye.

That night, Shi Ji successfully refined another drop of demonic bloodline.

The next morning, Shi Ji emerged from seclusion, full of energy. His breakthrough in cultivation had greatly enhanced his strength, increasing his combat power by about five times, making him exceptionally happy.

Shi Ji took out two demon cores, which contained immense magical power. Shi Ji naturally didn't care about demon cores of this level, but he planned to give them to the dragon rabbit to consume.

Shi Ji placed the two demon cores in front of the dragon rabbit.

The dragon and rabbit seemed eager to try, but ultimately chose to refuse.

Shi Ji said, "Such treasures are extremely rare and hard to come by. Are you really unwilling to swallow these two demon cores?"

The dragon rabbit shook its head and said, "Consuming these two demon cores will be of little help to me!"

Shi Ji nearly coughed up blood; that Dragon Rabbit was far too arrogant.

He put away the demon core and then asked, "What realm are you in now?"

The dragon rabbit replied, "My current cultivation level is roughly equivalent to the peak of the ninth level of the Emperor Realm!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Ji's face immediately showed an extremely shocked expression. He did not expect that Long Tu would actually break through to the peak of the ninth level of the Emperor Lord realm.

"Now you can help me defend against foreign enemies, right?" Shi Ji looked at Long Tu with expectant eyes.

The dragon rabbit nodded obediently.

Shi Ji said, "Then let's go out and see how many powerful figures those extraterrestrial forces have brought!"

Then Shiji and Longtu left the stone coffin.

Shi Ji discovered that the terrifying being had vanished, clearly having been completely suppressed and annihilated.

"This is truly a stroke of luck! I was just worried about not being able to leave this place, and now that this terrifying being has fallen, there are still three others left in this immortal abode. We must eliminate them all!"

Shi Ji grinned maliciously, then darted away.

After that terrifying being was destroyed, the entire void was filled with strange power, so Shi Ji is now unable to use the Void Teleportation Technique.

However, Shi Ji knew the truth in her heart.

The array patterns previously set up by that terrifying being may not have completely disappeared, so Shi Ji now needs to find the exact location where the array patterns were set up.

Shi Ji moved with incredible speed, carefully searching every corner of the valley.

But in the end, they gained nothing.

Soon after, Shi Ji saw dazzling runes emerging from the depths of the ancient tomb ahead.

The moment Shi Ji saw those runes, a look of joy immediately appeared on her face.

He hurried forward.

“This seems to be a passageway,” Shi Ji said, surprised.

The passage appeared to have been excavated, with various miscellaneous items piled up around it. After examining the items, Shiji discovered that a large number of skeletons were buried there.

Shi Ji frowned. Could it be that the terrifying being had set up an ambush to attack her here?
Shi Ji carefully examined the passage and sensed that it was full of danger, so he decided to turn back.

But at that moment, countless runes suddenly appeared in the passage.

All those runes were branded onto Shi Ji's body.

These runes are quite peculiar.

After being branded onto Shi Ji's body, the mark penetrated directly into her skin and seeped into her body.

A sharp pain immediately struck.

Shi Ji gritted her teeth and growled in a low voice.

He felt intense pain; these curses seemed to be devouring Shi Ji's very life force.

Shi Ji felt that she was gradually approaching death.

"Damn curse, how can I break it?"

Shi Ji was in a terrible mood. His body was trembling uncontrollably. He activated his Bronze Haki, which could suppress this kind of curse technique.

However, the effect was not significant. The Bronze Aura only temporarily suppressed the curse technique, but could not completely eliminate it.

Shi Ji sat cross-legged in the passage to recuperate from his injuries, as the curse was increasingly devouring his life essence.

Soon after, the curse could no longer be suppressed.

Shi Ji felt her lifespan rapidly slipping away.

He originally had a lifespan of three hundred years.

But now he feels his lifespan is rapidly slipping away.

Shi Ji screamed in terror.

He hurriedly took out a healing elixir and swallowed it, but the speed at which his injuries recovered was far slower than the speed at which his lifespan was dwindling.

In just a short moment.

His lifespan had already been exhausted.

"The source of my life has been completely exhausted."

"Is the flame of my life about to be extinguished?"

Shi Ji muttered to herself.

His eyes gradually lost their luster.

"Am I going to die? I'm not reconciled, I'm so unwilling... I don't want to die, I hate it so much!"

Shi Ji looked up at the sky and let out a long howl.

His heart was filled with sorrow and despair; even someone as powerful as him could not escape the cycle of fate.

Many faces flashed through Shi Ji's mind.

He has a father named Lin Zhennan.

There's her mother, Ji Yuanyang, and her junior sister, Xiao Zhao...

So many familiar faces.

Finally, Shi Ji slowly closed his eyes, his breathing stopped, and his life force quickly died out.

"Son!"

Poison Ancestor and his companions were astonished to discover Shi Ji.

But they were powerless to do anything and could only watch helplessly as Shiji fell.

Poison Ancestor, Evil Saint, and Cursed Doll all knelt on the ground. Shi Ji's demise was something none of them wanted to see, yet reality is often so cruel.

Shiji fell too quickly, without any warning.

Even Shiji's friends couldn't believe that she would perish so quickly.

"No... Young Master won't die, don't be sad," Poison Ancestor shouted.

His tears fell down his cheeks.

The Evil Saint and the Cursed Doll also began to weep.

Although Shi Ji usually liked to tease them with a playful smile, she treated them very well.

If there were no rocky islets.

They are probably still lowly slaves now.

"No! Young master, we will go with you." Poison Ancestor stood up and rushed towards Shi Ji.

The Evil Saint and the Cursed Doll also rushed towards the rocky shore.

But then, something surprising happened.

The runes swirled above Shi Ji's corpse, and then they merged into her body.

Shi Ji opened her eyes.

He sat up from the ground.

"I'm alive... I actually survived!" Shi Ji was extremely excited.

He couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Shi Ji had almost died here just now, but now he was alive, it was like a dream.

"A curse technique! It can even control my physical body!"

Shi Ji's face was extremely gloomy when he suddenly remembered something.

He had offended a powerful member of the Cursed Clan on the Ancient Starry Road.

That powerful member of the Cursed Clan possessed a heaven-defying curse technique.

It is said that the master of that powerful member of the Cursed Clan was an ancestor-level being of the Cursed Clan.

Moreover, it is rumored that the ancestor of the Cursed Clan once refined the essence and blood of many masters to cultivate the art of curses.

The power of the curse is beyond imagination.

The master of the cursed clan expert that Shi Ji encountered on the Starry Sky Ancient Road should be the ancestor of the cursed clan.

The curse talisman that Shi Ji obtained must have been left behind by that powerful member of the cursed clan, who then passed on the art of curses to the cursed doll.

Therefore, the identity of the cursed doll must be extremely unusual.

"Boy! You still remember me, don't you?" The cursed doll stared coldly at Shi Ji.

He harbored deep resentment towards Shiji because Shiji destroyed the Cursed Clan's inherited treasure, and it was because of this that he betrayed the Cursed Clan.

At this moment, the cursed doll had no goodwill whatsoever towards Shiji. Its heart was filled with resentment towards Shiji, so when Shiji woke up, the cursed doll couldn't wait to take action.

Shi Ji's expression shifted unpredictably. He stared coldly at the cursed doll and said, "I do recognize you. I even tried to kill you once before, but I didn't know you were the cursed doll then, which is why I couldn't finish you off! Now, let's have another match!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Ji lunged at the cursed doll, and the two clashed instantly, engaging in a fierce battle. Although Shi Ji's cultivation had declined considerably, his magical power remained incredibly strong, and the cursed doll was no match for him.

Seizing the opportunity, Shi Ji punched the cursed doll in the chest. The doll hurriedly dodged, and Shi Ji then used the Five Finger Mountain technique, a move called "Immortal Touching the Head," to press down on the cursed doll.

The cursed doll let out a shriek and flew backward as if struck by a heavy blow.

Shi Ji stepped forward and chased after the cursed doll again, intending to destroy it in one fell swoop.

Just then, the black mist surged and churned, and a wisp of black mist condensed into a huge phantom skull. The skull lunged at Shi Ji, attempting to attack her real body.

"Hmph, a mere skeleton dares to take my life?" Shi Ji sneered, swinging her sword. A clanging sound suddenly resounded through the sky as the stone sword collided with the skull, shattering it into pieces.

The skull was the original form of the cursed doll. Now that it was destroyed, the cursed doll coughed up a mouthful of blood, its face as pale as paper.

Shi Ji continued charging towards the cursed doll, intending to kill it.

But at that moment, a terrifying aura spread out, and Shi Ji felt a chill run down her spine.

He turned his head and was immediately shocked to see countless ghosts swarming in from all directions.

There were tens of millions of those ghostly creatures, and the aura emanating from each one was terrifying.

Looking at the countless ghosts around him, even a ruthless character like Shi Ji.

At this moment, his expression also changed abruptly.

These ghosts are far too powerful!

Moreover, there are simply too many of them.

Shi Ji shouted loudly and led the Poison Ancestor and others to rush outside.

One after another, the ghosts exploded.

Many of the ghosts couldn't even stop Shi Ji and the others from their tracks.

Not long after, Shi Ji and the others left the palace.

They returned to the depths of the underworld, and upon entering, they saw the Lord of the Underworld sitting cross-legged on the altar, as if he were meditating with his eyes closed.

Upon seeing this scene, Shi Ji's gaze turned slightly cold.

He knew that the Lord of the Underworld must have already awakened, but this guy was pretending not to be awake, clearly wanting to reap the benefits.

"Brother Lin, how should we deal with this guy?" Poison Ancestor asked.

"Let's see what the Lord of the Underworld plans to do first!"

They concealed their presence and lurked in the shadows, observing the Lord of the Underworld.

Suddenly, the Lord of the Underworld opened his mouth and swallowed a drop of liquid.

A powerful and astonishing surge of energy erupted from the Lord of the Underworld.

The Lord of the Underworld has recovered a great deal of his power.

"I finally broke through!"

The Lord of the Underworld said with great joy.

It turns out that the Lord of the Underworld consumed a spiritual elixir made from a special ingredient.

After swallowing this spiritual liquid, the Lord of the Underworld's cultivation level instantly improved significantly. He has now fully recovered and is even more powerful than before.

The Lord of the Underworld could easily deal with Shi Ji and the others.

Shi Ji said, "It seems you're really lucky, breaking through at such a crucial moment!"

"Heh heh, kid, this is all your fault! You ruined my chance to break through, so today I'm going to grind you to dust, tear your soul out of your body, and make you wish you were dead!"

The Lord of the Underworld grinned maliciously, his eyes filled with a sinister light.

Shi Ji's expression changed slightly. He was unwilling to stay any longer, as his life might be in danger if he remained there.

Shi Ji took out the Emperor's Armor and put it on. At the same time, she summoned three evil blades to protect herself. With a wave of her hand, Shi Ji sent the three evil blades rapidly sweeping towards the Lord of the Underworld.

"Hmph." The Lord of the Underworld snorted contemptuously, his right arm trembled, and a raging fire ignited, forming a fire barrier.

When the three evil blades came slashing down, the fiery barrier blocked them from entering.

Shi Ji sneered, "Do you think everything is going according to your plan? Even if you have extraordinary cultivation, you won't be able to harm me in the slightest!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Ji leaped out and charged straight at the Lord of the Underworld.

The Lord of the Underworld dared not underestimate Shi Ji. He coldly said, "Shi Ji, today I will definitely kill you with my own hands!"

The Lord of the Underworld was not to be outdone and attacked Shiji.

The two masters were locked in a fierce battle.

The two sides fought fiercely. Shi Ji relied on the defensive power of her Emperor Armor to withstand the attacks of the Lord of the Underworld, but the Lord of the Underworld was ultimately more powerful and gained the upper hand. (End of Chapter)
