The moment the name 'Zhu Chen' was uttered, the entire audience erupted in uproar.

"What did you say? He's Zhu Chen?"

"Heavens! I never imagined that the one who wreaked havoc among the Celestial Race, slew several Celestial Gods, forced the death of his race's protector, and even the esteemed Lord of the Immortal Palace personally intervened but failed to capture, the Sinful Blood Zhu Chen of the Lower Realm, was actually him?"

"Wait a minute, wasn't he in Celestial City? How did he end up here?"

Everyone was stunned!

The name Zhu Chen swept across the entire Three Thousand Provinces like a hurricane in a relatively short period of time!

Especially after the news spread that even the Supreme Being of the Immortal Palace failed to capture or kill him, his fearsome reputation reached a new peak!
A sinful bloodline from the lower realm, considered a prison, has stirred up the winds and clouds of the upper realm, causing the Immortal Ancient Sect to lose face and shaking the Longevity Clan. His deeds have long been the topic of conversation among countless cultivators, making many people both hate and fear him.

They never expected that this legendary figure would actually emerge from a nearly abandoned lower realm teleportation array on the edge of this godforsaken Sin State!

And he looks so young!

However, after the initial shock, many people gradually revealed a greedy look in their eyes when they looked at Zhu Chen.

You must know that the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques on the other party are an unparalleled inheritance that even the Immortal Palace covets!
"He possesses at least several of the Ten Deadly Techniques... This place is remote, and news may not get out immediately... If I could..."

However, just as the killing intent in his heart was beginning to gather...

On the teleportation platform, Zhu Chen, who had been calmly gazing into the distance, also turned his head away without making a sound.

His gaze was like two cold, tangible sword energies, instantly piercing through the crowd and landing on that rogue cultivator!

"--Well!"

The greed on the rogue cultivator's face froze instantly, replaced by boundless fear!

He felt an indescribable, terrifying pressure that ignored all his protective aura and defenses and acted directly on the source of his soul!
"--boom!"

A muffled thud followed!

Before the rogue cultivator could even let out a scream, his entire body exploded into a cloud of crimson blood mist!
In an instant.

The dozens of cultivators who had been harboring their own thoughts just moments before all fell silent.

With just a glance, he instantly killed a Venerable Realm cultivator!
He didn't even have a chance to resist!
Is this the person who could slay gods in the lower realms and even the Supreme Being of the Immortal Palace was helpless against?

"Run away..."

A piercing scream rang out from the crowd.

In an instant.

The dozens of cultivators around them instantly transformed into streaks of light, frantically fleeing in all directions at incredible speeds, as if they wished their parents had two more legs!
In just a few breaths, the once bustling ruins around the battle platform were now completely empty, leaving only the rising dust and the lingering stench of blood.

No, there's still one person who hasn't left.

It was that disheveled, drunken old man who revealed Zhu Chen's identity.

He still leaned lazily against the broken wall, as if the bloody scene and the fleeing crowd had nothing to do with him. He just took another sip of wine and let out a satisfied sigh.

Zhu Chen slowly turned around, his gaze falling on the old man.

He had vaguely sensed that the old man was extraordinary, and upon closer inspection, he saw even more clues.

The old man appeared disheveled, and his breathing was mixed and weak, but occasionally a faint light, like that of a deep pool or ancient well, would flash in the depths of his murky eyes.

That is the sedimentation that comes from experiencing endless years and seeing through the vicissitudes of life.

More importantly, Zhu Chen sensed a faint yet incredibly pure Kunpeng aura emanating from him!

Although the aura was cleverly concealed and mixed, Zhu Chen, who possessed the complete Kunpeng Treasure Technique and had even seen the remnant of the Heavenly Desolate Halberd, was extremely sensitive to it!
Furthermore, given that this place is a sinful state, and considering a certain being from the original work... Zhu Chen already had a guess in his mind.

His expression remained unchanged. He cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards the old man and said solemnly, "Thank you for your reminder, senior. May I ask your name? Is there something you need while waiting for me here?"

The disheveled old man chuckled and shook the wine gourd in his hand: "A reminder? I just couldn't stand those fools who didn't recognize my worth. As for the title... hehe, just an old drunkard clinging to life. I've long forgotten my name, but some people like to call me... the leader of the 'Kunmen' sect."

Master of Kunmen!

Sure enough it was him!

An immortal being, the secondary body of Kunpengzi!
Zhu Chen's last trace of doubt vanished.

This Kunpengzi is the offspring of the Ten Fierce Kunpeng, and possesses an indestructible body.

Back then, the other party was separated from his main body and secondary body for a long time under the Five Elements Mountain.

After his second body escaped, he established the "Kunmen" in the Upper Realm of Sin Province and gathered some of the descendants of the Sin Blood who were being hunted down, as well as some rogue cultivators. He became a force to be reckoned with in Sin Province, and his actions were both righteous and evil, making him quite mysterious.

"So you are the leader of the Kun Sect. My apologies for my disrespect."

Zhu Chen's expression remained unchanged, but the seriousness in his tone became even more apparent.

He maintained basic respect for this being who was directly related to Kunpeng by blood and also had deep hatred for certain major sects in the upper realm.

"Hey, what's with all this talk of respect?"

Kunpengzi waved his hand, looked Zhu Chen up and down with his turbid eyes, and clicked his tongue in amazement, saying, "Kid, you've got some nerve. You caused such a commotion, killed the Netherworld Sect Master, and you still dare to swagger back to the Upper Realm. And your first stop is this chaotic Sin Province. What? Do you really think those ancient sects are made of clay?"

Zhu Chen smiled slightly: "Senior is joking. Debts must always be repaid. What the Underworld owes me, I will naturally go to collect in person. As for the others... if they want to come, I will accept them."

"Good! That's arrogant enough! You've got some of the flair of your ancestors!"

Kunpengzi laughed loudly, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes, but then lowered his voice, carrying a hint of warning: "But kid, don't blame me for not warning you. The commotion you made coming up from that abandoned teleportation array, and that display of power just now, the news probably won't be kept secret for long. The Immortal Palace, Sword Valley, Demon Sunflower Garden... and those people in the Underworld will probably know you're back soon, and right here in Sin Province. This place isn't peaceful; there are plenty of eyes watching it."

Zhu Chen's gaze sharpened slightly, and he nodded, saying, "Thank you for the reminder, senior. I understand."

He never intended to hide his tracks for long. This time, he returned to settle his karmic debts openly and honestly!

"It's good to have a clear understanding of the situation."

After Kunpengzi finished the last sip of wine, he casually tossed the empty gourd aside, dusted himself off, and stood up straight.

At this moment, his disheveled and decadent aura seemed to have dissipated considerably.

Although still unremarkable, it has gained a touch of composure.

"Boy, since you have the inheritance of that old woman Kunpeng, I'll give you some news."

He turned to look at Zhu Chen, his eyes suddenly becoming profound: "The Netherworld's power in the Sin Province is mainly concentrated in the 'Burial Abyss' area. That place is filled with deathly aura and remnants of chaos, making it a tough nut to crack. Moreover, as far as I know, the Immortal Palace seems to have some special 'interest' in the Burial Abyss, but they are holding back for the time being. You must be careful on your trip, lest you become the mantis that is stalked and the oriole that pecks at your eyes from behind."

Without waiting for Zhu Chen's response, he vanished silently behind the broken wall, like a ghost, leaving only a faint utterance drifting in the wind:
"If you run into trouble, you can come to the old site of 'Kunmen' to find me... provided that you don't kill yourself first."

Zhu Chen stood there, gazing in the direction where Kunpengzi's second body had disappeared, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

Burial Abyss...

The Immortal Palace's interest...

It seems that this journey to the underworld may be more interesting than he had anticipated.

With that thought in mind, Zhu Chen stopped and immediately transformed into a streak of light, rushing towards the 'Burial Abyss' deep within the Sinful State.
