Immortality Cultivation: I can use my clansmen’s energy and blood to add points.

It has no eyes, but Luo Qingchen can clearly feel that there is a cold, greedy, and malicious "gaze" that is fixed on the four of them!

The shadow was extremely fast. Almost the moment it appeared, it turned into a stream of light and pounced towards Su Xiaowan and Bai Ling'er, who were in the middle of the team and had the weakest aura!
"Be careful!" Luo Qingchen reacted the fastest. He shouted loudly, and the Black Dragon Sword in his hand instantly burst out with a dazzling gray sword light!

"Chaos Sword Art: Splitting the Sky!"

The sword light, which contained the power to tear apart space, arrived first and accurately slashed at the transparent shadow that was rushing towards it!

However, a shocking scene happened!

Luo Qingchen's sword was sharp enough to cut through metal and iron and tear through the void. The moment it touched the transparent shadow, it was as if it had hit the air and went straight through!

That shadow seemed completely immune to physical attacks!
"What?!" Luo Qingchen's pupils shrank and he was horrified.

"Jie—"

The transparent shadow let out a silent scream, and its speed increased instead of slowing down, and it was about to pounce on Su Xiaowan and Bai Ling'er!

Su Xiaowan was so frightened that her face turned pale. She screamed and tried to retreat, but her legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead. A piercing chill instantly enveloped her whole body, as if her soul was about to be frozen!
Bailing'er's condition was slightly better. The leaves of the Nine-Turn Resurrection Grass between her eyebrows emitted a warm light, which offset some of the coldness, but she still felt her soul was shaken, her head was splitting, and she almost fainted.

"Tianyuan·Pure Spirit!"

At this critical moment, "Tianyuan Jingling!" At this critical moment, Lin Wan'er, who was cut off, gave a delicate cry. The blue spiritual light around her body surged. She waved the long sword in her hand, and a emerald green sword energy containing abundant vitality, like an arrow shot from a bow, accurately shot towards the transparent shadow!

This is not a simple attack, but a purification technique containing the secret method of Tianyuan Sect, specifically targeting evil souls!
The emerald green sword energy and the transparent shadow intersected in mid-air! A strange scene occurred!

The shadow, which was originally invisible and intangible and could penetrate physical attacks, melted with a "sizzling" sound the moment it came into contact with the emerald sword energy, like ice and snow burned by a raging fire! The shadow's figure suddenly stagnated, its speed suddenly slowed down, and wisps of black smoke began to rise from its body surface, emitting a painful and sharp soul scream!

“Jeh——!!”

The sound was no longer the silent scream from before, but a real scream filled with pain and fear, echoing directly in everyone's minds, making their eardrums buzz and their souls turbulent.

It worked! Lin Wan'er's purifying sword energy was actually effective against this strange shadow!
Luo Qingchen was cheered up, seized the opportunity and immediately changed his sword moves!

"Chaos Sword Technique: Breaking Evil!"

The Black Dragon Sword slashed out again, and this time, the sword light was no longer simply gray, but faintly revealed a hint of golden luster, which was the purer evil-breaking power contained in the power of chaos!

The sword light was like lightning that cut through the night sky, accurately striking the transparent shadow that was weakened by the green sword energy!

"Tsk-!"

An even more piercing tearing sound rang out! Under the light of the Chaos Breaking Evil Sword, the transparent shadow was like being burned by a red-hot iron, and it let out an even more shrill scream. Its body was like smoke blown away by a strong wind, and it instantly became fragmented. The originally condensed humanoid outline also began to distort and deform, and it was about to completely collapse!

"Hehehe...Humans...you...deserve to die..."

The shadow emitted intermittent soul fluctuations filled with resentment and unwillingness. The sound became weaker and weaker. Finally, under the continuous burning of the Chaos Evil-Breaking Sword Light, it was completely annihilated and turned into black spots of light. It dissipated in the void, leaving only a faint, strange smell of burnt things in the air.

The crisis is over!

Su Xiaowan and Bai Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief, and their tense bodies relaxed. Su Xiaowan patted her chest exaggeratedly, looking like she had survived a disaster: "I'm so scared! What the hell is this? It's like a ghost, untouchable and unreachable. Fortunately, Sister Wan'er is awesome!"

Lin Wan'er put away her sword and stood up. Her face was still a little pale, but her breath had stabilized a lot. Although the "Tian Yuan·Pure Spirit" just now effectively restrained the shadow, it also consumed a lot of energy.

Bai Ling'er also looked at Lin Wan'er gratefully and said softly, "Thank you, Sister Lin."

Lin Wan'er smiled at her, shook her head, and turned her gaze to Luo Qingchen: "Brother Luo, what is that thing? It is immune to physical attacks and can also directly attack the soul. It's so weird."

Luo Qingchen frowned, looking solemnly at the direction where the shadow disappeared, and said slowly: "I am not sure what it is, but judging from its aura and attack method, it is likely a kind of... soul body, or some special energy life. It seems to have no entity, and is completely composed of pure soul energy, so physical attacks are ineffective, and it can only be harmed by the power of the soul level."

"Spirit?" Su Xiaowan's eyes widened, with an expression of disbelief, "Is there really a ghost?"

"The Nine Netherworld is already full of bizarre existences, so it's not surprising that souls appear." Luo Qingchen said calmly, with a hint of solemnity in his tone, "The shadow just now wasn't that strong, it was just fast, its attacks were weird, and it could directly target souls, so it was more difficult to deal with. But if there are more of them, or if we encounter a more powerful soul, it will be troublesome."

He activated the power of chaos again, carefully sensing the surrounding environment. The passage was still empty and silent, with nothing but rocks and darkness. But the appearance of the shadow just now undoubtedly sounded the alarm for them. This seemingly peaceful passage was definitely not a safe place. "Let's be careful." Luo Qingchen said in a deep voice, raising his vigilance again, and continued to lead the way forward.

On the following journey, everyone was more cautious, always on guard against possible attacks. However, strangely, they did not encounter any danger until they walked out of this long passage.

The end of the passage is not the exit as imagined, but a wider and more shocking underground space!

When Luo Qingchen was the first to walk out of the passage and step into this new world, he was almost stunned by the scene before him.

This is a huge space that cannot be described in words. The dome is so high that it seems to pierce through the ground and reach the starry sky. Above the head, it is not pitch black, but countless twinkling "stars" are hanging! These "stars" are not real stars, but an unknown mineral that emits a soft, star-like light, illuminating the entire underground space without being dazzling. Instead, it creates a dreamy, mysterious and ethereal atmosphere.

The ground under your feet is no longer rough rock, but a flat and smooth crystal ground with a light blue luster. It is like a huge mirror, reflecting the "stars" above the dome, making the entire space appear deeper and vaster, as if you are under a starry sky.

Huge stone pillars stood around the space, but these stone pillars were not the rough black boulders in the previous palace. Instead, they were a crystal clear light blue in color. The material seemed to be the same as the ground, and they also emitted a faint starlight, like pillars supporting the starry sky, full of a sacred and solemn atmosphere.

The entire space was empty and silent. Apart from the breathing and footsteps of the four of them, no other sounds could be heard. The air was filled with a light, fresh breath, which was completely different from the desolate silence in the previous passage. Instead, it carried a trace of mysterious energy fluctuations similar to those of the stars, making people feel relaxed and refreshed, and all their fatigue disappeared.

"Where... where is this?" Su Xiaowan was also stunned by the scene before her. Her previous nervousness and fatigue were swept away, replaced by a face full of amazement and curiosity. "Oh my God! This place is so beautiful! It's just like... a fairy tale world!"

Lin Wan'er and Bai Ling'er were also shocked. They had never seen such a strange and beautiful underground space and were dazed for a moment.

Only Luo Qingchen still looked solemn, his eyes full of doubt and vigilance. He was not confused by the scene before him, but felt an unfathomable dangerous atmosphere. Under this seemingly peaceful and tranquil "starry sky", it seemed that there was a more terrifying secret hidden.

He exerted the power of chaos to the extreme, and his perception spread out like a tide, carefully observing every corner of this space. He wanted to find out the essence of this space and the possible dangers that might be hidden.

However, his perception was greatly hindered in this space. The crystal stone pillars and the ground that emitted starlight seemed to contain some special energy field that could interfere with or even devour his perception, greatly limiting his detection range.

"Be careful, this place is not as safe as it looks." Luo Qingchen warned in a deep voice, looking around, trying to find some clues.

At this moment, he suddenly noticed that at the end of this "starry sky", in the central area surrounded by countless crystal stone pillars, there seemed to be a huge, vague outline, which was faintly flashing a strange light under the reflection of the starlight.

The outline had a strange shape and it was impossible to tell what it was exactly, but it gave off an extremely ancient and powerful aura that even faintly surpassed the terrifying aura of the evil eye and gravekeeper encountered before!
Luo Qingchen's heart sank suddenly, and an unprecedented sense of crisis suddenly surged into his heart.

The end of the passage suddenly opened up, and the scene that appeared made Su Xiaowan instantly forget her previous fear and fatigue. Her little mouth opened into a circle and couldn't close for a long time.

“Wow!” She let out an uncontrollable exclamation, her eyes widened and she rubbed them hard to make sure she was not dreaming, “Fairy Sister! Senior Brother Luo! Look! This… is this the sky?!”

What comes into view is an unimaginably huge underground space. The dome is high and far-reaching, with countless "stars" emitting soft light. The light flickers like breathing, casting a hazy glow, making the entire space look like a dream. Underfoot is not soil or rock, but an endless pale blue crystal ground, as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the "galaxy" above, making people feel as if they are in the vast universe.

Towering light blue crystal stone pillars stand all around. They are crystal clear with faint starlight flowing on their surface, like sacred pillars supporting this underground starry sky, emitting a solemn and mysterious atmosphere.

Lin Wan'er was also deeply shocked by the scene before her. She had never thought that there was such a magnificent and fantastic world deep underground. The soft starlight seemed to carry some strange energy, brushing against her body, replenishing her consumed spiritual power and mental power slightly, and her pale face regained a hint of redness. She subconsciously clenched her sword. Although she was amazed at the beauty of this place, she was still vigilant.

Bai Ling'er's eyes widened with curiosity, and her little head looked up at the "stars" above her head, her little face full of surprise. The atmosphere here was completely different from the gloomy silence before. Although it was also ancient and empty, it was peaceful and tranquil, and even made her feel a little comfortable. The restlessness in the depths of her soul caused by the dragon soul seemed to have calmed down a little.

"This place... is so beautiful..." Bailing'er murmured softly, with an innocent light flashing in her eyes.

Only Luo Qingchen's brows didn't relax, but locked even tighter. This seemingly peaceful and tranquil "starry sky" gave him a much stronger sense of crisis than the Nine Netherworld Palace before. The soft starlight, the fresh air, the refreshing feeling... everything was too perfect, too perfect to be real.

He used the power of chaos to try to deeply perceive the essence of this space, but found it was like a drop in the ocean. Those twinkling "stars", those crystal stone pillars, and even the ground under his feet, all seemed to form a huge, invisible energy field, constantly interfering with, deflecting, and even devouring his perception. He was like a blindfolded person who could only see the brilliance on the surface but could not see the undercurrent underneath.

"Everyone, be careful. Something is wrong here." Luo Qingchen reminded in a deep voice, interrupting the amazement of Su Xiaowan and Bai Ling'er. "The more beautiful the place, the greater the danger it often hides."

Su Xiaowan's excitement faded a little after hearing that, and she stuck out her tongue: "I know, Senior Brother Luo, you always spoil the fun. But... it really doesn't look dangerous here. It feels much more comfortable than outside." As she spoke, she took a deep breath, as if she wanted to breathe the fresh air into her lungs.

At this moment, Luo Qingchen's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he stared at the end of this "starry sky", in the central area surrounded by countless crystal pillars. There, the starlight seemed to converge more, vaguely outlining an extremely large and unclear outline.

The outline stood quietly in the starlight. Its specific shape could not be seen clearly, but it exuded an indescribable pressure.

It was an ancient will that transcended the level of life, as if it existed with the starry sky, vast, indifferent, and cold as it looked down upon all living things. (End of this chapter)
