"After crossing the hill in front, we will reach Yinhui Valley. The old land of Qingqiu is buried under Yinhui Valley."

"So what are you waiting for? Keep leading the way."

"I'm already on my way. Just giving you a heads up, we're almost there. You'd better cheer up."

Along the way, they met more and more people who arrived near this place, warriors, and even monks. Obviously, they all came for the treasures hidden in the old land of Qingqiu. It can be said that once the restriction is completely destroyed, they will be competitors.

If you want more treasures, you will inevitably encounter some powerful enemies. Miao Conglu is an ordinary person, so she naturally cannot participate. She needs Lu Chuan's protection.

"Don't worry, you don't need to remind me. I know what I should do. You just need to lead the way and take me to the two treasures you mentioned."

"I hope you can keep your promise."

After crossing the last mountain blocking the road, Miao Conglu was already exhausted and could hardly keep up with Lu Chuan and Yun Ji. She used a cane to support herself and barely stood up.

Seeing him like this, Lu Chuan was a little helpless and said, "You can plant that insect back into my body, at least I won't be out of breath like I am now."

"It's already... no good. The Mother-Child Heart-Eating Gu can't be reused in a short period of time. It needs time to warm up. I, I'm fine. I just need to take a few breaths. Hey! What are you doing!"

"Of course I'll take you away quickly. I've made it very clear that there's no time to waste. Don't struggle. Don't blame me if you fall to the ground."

Lu Chuan directly carried Miao Conglu on his shoulders and immediately quickened his pace. He and Yun Ji turned into a shadow and quickly broke through the tree line and entered the Yinhui Valley!
However, although it is called a valley, it is more like a slightly low hill. Lu Chuan used his perception ability and detected no less than a hundred auras nearby, including those of warriors, cultivators, and even demons.

The auras of these people are of different strengths, ranging from the Foundation Establishment Grandmaster to the Nascent Soul Profound Realm, and there are even a few people whose auras have reached the level of a saint, half a step away from being a spirit!

Lu Chuan was looking at the others, and the others were doing the same.

After sensing the arrival of another powerful late Nascent Soul stage expert, the mood of everyone present undoubtedly became more solemn.

After all, everyone present is a potential competitor, and the stronger the enemy, the longer and shorter their chances become.

However, what puzzled Lu Chuan was that, although the entrance to the underground palace, which was guarded by a nine-tailed fox statue, had appeared, no one else seemed to have any intention of going in.

"Is there some danger lurking inside the entrance? Yun Yan, why are they all staying outside instead of entering the underground palace?"

"The restrictions at the entrance of the cave have not been completely broken. If you force your way in, you will be targeted by the vengeful spirits of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan. They are immortal and very difficult to deal with. I think someone must have died suddenly after breaking in, which stopped the others from moving forward."

"I see. How long will it take to completely break the restriction?"

"You don't need to wait. Both Yun Ji and I are the most useful passes. Under the protection of our aura, the nine-tailed fox ghost will not do anything to you. This is your greatest confidence, and it is also the reason why I asked you to bring Yun Ji with you."

Hearing this, Lu Chuan's eyes suddenly lit up.

Indeed, if Lu Chuan could enter the underground palace before everyone else, it would obviously be his advantage. He could even confuse others and take the opportunity to reduce the number of competitors.

Thinking of this, Lu Chuan put down Miao Conglu who was on his shoulder and said in a deep voice: "It's time, let's go in." As soon as these words came out, Lu Chuan immediately attracted the attention of many people present. Some people spoke up to remind him, while others watched coldly or even laughed.

Lu Chuan chose to ignore it and took Yun Ji and Miao Conglu with him and walked straight to the passage that was suppressed by the nine-tailed fox statue. He moved the statue away, revealing a long staircase with an unclear end leading directly to the underground palace. Lu Chuan rushed in without any hesitation, followed closely by Yun Ji and Miao Conglu.

Seeing this scene, someone immediately laughed in disdain.

"Another idiot has come. There are so many of us waiting here. Doesn't he understand what this means?"

"It's a pity that the two women around him, although their faces can't be seen clearly, have great figures. It's a waste!"

"It seems...something is not right."

Seeing Lu Chuan going deeper and deeper, there was no scream coming from the stairs, and the resentful soul that appeared before seemed to have completely disappeared.

Could it be that the ban has been lifted?
Thinking of this, joy appeared on everyone's faces. They rushed forward one after another, just to be able to enter the underground palace earlier and grab the treasure!

However, just as a dozen people passed through the crowd and rushed into the passage, more than a dozen nine-tailed fox spirits seeped out from the stone wall almost at the same time, making ferocious and sharp roars and pounced forward. In just a few breaths, all the intruders were wiped out!

Although there were no visible external injuries on the body, the Qi flow was definitely cut off. This strange method once again quieted the crowd!
"What on earth is going on here?"

The person just now was able to pass through the stairs and reach the underground palace safely, but as soon as other people approached, the resentful spirits guarding here would appear and kill them all.
"Damn it! Is there some necessary condition to enter the underground palace?!"

"Maybe there are too many people? Only three of the man entered the passage before."

“It’s not impossible”

So, some people who did not believe in the evil began to form groups of three and tried to imitate Lu Chuan and enter the underground palace.

The ending was not unexpected, he was still tortured and killed by the resentful spirits and had no ability to resist.

This time, no one made a different suggestion, because no one dared to gamble with their own life. All they could do was wait until the ban was completely lifted before entering the underground palace.

At the other end, after Lu Chuan and his two companions walked through a long staircase, the terrain beneath their feet suddenly became flat, but it was too dark around them and they could not see their hands in front of them.

Just as Lu Chuan was about to release the Sun God Fire to light up the surroundings, clusters of blue fox fire lit up from the torches on the walls on both sides.

With the faint light of the fire, Lu Chuan was finally able to see the entire picture of the underground palace. It was a mottled, dilapidated royal city that was completely buried underground.

Yun Ji seemed to see Lu Chuan's confusion and began to explain.

"I heard that the demon tribe suffered a disaster under the leadership of a certain person. Only one in ten of the demon tribe's strong men survived. The Demon King's Palace was even driven underground by a powerful person and sealed away, never to see the light of day again."
