Chapter 211 Treasure Cave

"What's wrong? What kind of trouble have you caused now?"

The other two companions frowned and spoke at the same time.

They had originally tracked the Six-Eared Macaque all the way here, but instead of capturing Xu Changjun, they got themselves into trouble.

That mountain god was extremely difficult to deal with, and was cunning and treacherous, causing them considerable harm.

An immense rage rose within them, and the group secretly vowed that once they captured Xu Changjun, they would make him wish he were dead.

hoohoo!

Before anyone could speak, a suffocating roar suddenly erupted from the surrounding black mist, causing it to tremble violently as if some terrifying monster was bursting forth from within.

Boom!

The commotion caused the ground to tremble, and one after another, enormous bull-headed monsters emerged from the mist, their bodies adorned with long chains.

It dragged along the ground, making a screeching sound that sent chills down your spine.

"Here comes the big one!"

One of the Golden Immortals' expressions changed.

Then, looking in the direction from which the sound came, they saw a huge red sedan chair, radiating an overwhelming aura, being carried out by four enormous creatures behind the bull-headed demons. Invisible blood-red light radiated outwards, illuminating the netherworld.

"Damn it! What a ruthless tactic! That damned mountain god has set a trap for us, one that will wipe out our entire family."

These Golden Immortals were all seasoned veterans, and they quickly grasped the situation.

After slaying the ghost, even more high-level ghosts gathered around.

"They have them here too!"

"Another one has appeared!"

However, before the leading Golden Immortal could finish speaking, the other two Golden Immortals quickly shouted, and two more sedan chairs, one black and one white, were carried out of the black mist by the bull-headed demon.

An unknown and powerful being from the bottomless abyss has firmly trapped the three Golden Immortals in the center.

"This is a trap!"

Whoosh!

With a piercing scraping sound and the roar of the bull-headed demon, the iron chains binding them instantly taut and flew out, their tips shooting straight towards them like bullets, their speed so great that the sound of spatial friction resounded throughout the surrounding area.

Boom!

As an invisible terror surged forth from the black mist, the three Golden Immortals of the Taiyu Immortal Dynasty were forced to halt in their tracks, facing a perilous situation.

"Finally, we've shaken them off!"

A crashing sound came from the cave behind him, and the echoes of an explosion reverberated through the cave. Xu Changjun did not stop, but quickened his pace to escape from there.

He knew very well that too many ghosts were lurking in the bottomless abyss, and that if the battle became intense, it would inevitably attract the siege of these powerful ghosts, making the situation increasingly dangerous.

This bottomless abyss truly lives up to its reputation as a terrifying underground world, precisely because it connects to the abyss and attracts all sorts of horrible ghosts.

Moreover, the surging abyssal energy caused the ghostly creatures produced underground to mutate.

Along the way, they encountered all sorts of mutated and ferocious ghosts, appearing one after another. Xu Changjun avoided them from afar, as some of their terrifying auras were so powerful.

"This place truly lives up to its reputation as a dangerous forbidden zone for cultivators!"

Li Changjun concealed himself and watched as a huge, twisted black shadow, hundreds of meters tall, passed through the passage beside him, thinking to himself.

It must be said that with Ape Seven's map, Xu Changjun was able to find the right path in this dangerous place and keep moving towards the depths of the abyss.

In fact, there are almost no straight passages in this deep underground abyss; they are all winding tunnels, and no one knows where these small tunnels end.

But one thing is certain: in this place full of dangers, getting lost is definitely not good news.

The presence of countless terrifying abyssal monsters makes these paths fraught with danger and difficulty.

However, Xu Changjun followed the directions indicated by the map and was generally in a safe situation, but he also encountered various strange ghosts from time to time.

In many situations, encounters happen suddenly, leaving almost no chance to react.

The black mist drifting around seemed to be able to prevent divine sense from probing. Even with Xu Changjun's powerful mental strength, the range of his probing was only about tens of meters.

Those swift-moving ghosts arrive in front of you in the blink of an eye, leaving little chance to anticipate their arrival.

"The pursuers from the Taiyu Immortal Dynasty have likely perished here!"

Xu Changjun looked calmly and seriously into the dark end behind him and spoke slowly.

Boom!

Just as he had guessed, the three Golden Immortals from the Taiyu Immortal Dynasty were undoubtedly powerful, and even in this deep underground abyss, they were top-tier beings.

In any other place, even if surrounded, they could break through.

However, this place is a terrifying underground abyss, and even if they wanted to turn around and look for the entrance, there was no hope, because they had already lost their way in this complex passageway.

"Damn it, how do I get out of here?"

An angry roar echoed through the passageway.

What they faced was a dense array of ghosts that almost completely surrounded them, and a feeling of helplessness rose from the bottom of their hearts.

Even though they possessed the strength of Golden Immortals, and could destroy a whole area with a wave of their hand, the ghosts that surged out afterward instantly filled the gap.

They didn't know how many ghosts they had killed, but they were still densely packed before them. The ghosts in the entire bottomless abyss seemed endless.

hoohoo!

Just as the three were trying to figure out how to escape, suddenly, several terrifying roars echoed through the passage.

In an instant, their expressions changed. They looked in the direction of the sound and saw a black tiger, several meters long, with a jet-black body and a ferocious aura, smash through the crowd of ghosts and appear in front of them.

"Damn it, another big one's here!"

Even a Golden Immortal couldn't help but swear at this moment.

They had to fight off those bull-headed monsters and the blood sedan chair, which made their situation even more dangerous.

However, to their surprise, just a short while later, an even more terrifying black tiger appeared before them.

Of course, this is not a real tiger, but a terrifying being transformed from a ghost.

hoohoo!

The black tiger roared, its massive body moving with lightning speed as it pounced on the three Golden Immortals.

At the same time, other ghosts surged up like a tide, surrounding the three of them.

"kill!"

The three Golden Immortals of the Taiyu Immortal Dynasty were naturally unwilling to perish in this way. They roared and unleashed their full immortal energy to fight the ghost.

The scene was chaotic, filled with deafening shouts of battle.

If you zoom out, you can see even more ghosts rushing towards this side through the interconnected passages.

Without a doubt, the three Golden Immortals of the Taiyu Immortal Dynasty were caught in an endless battle, and the final result was that they died from exhaustion and were devoured by this ghost.

Perhaps this was their fate; the outcome was already predetermined from the moment they began their pursuit of Xu Changjun.

……

Xu Changjun was not moving fast, constantly traversing the abyss tunnel, and occasionally having to dodge the terrifying ghosts that appeared.

As he continued to explore downwards, the surrounding black fog grew increasingly dense.

"This black mist contains substances that cause negative emotions to erupt, such as anger and mania."

Xu Changjun could easily sense that the substance contained in the black mist was quite terrifying, capable of influencing emotions without one even realizing it.

If one remains in this environment for an extended period, the ultimate result will be becoming a monster like the ghosts of the abyss.

Fortunately, Xu Changjun's true form was transformed from a ten-thousand-year-old thunder vine, and his body contained strong thunder attributes.

Therefore, when the black mist approached Xu Changjun's body, it was purified by the lightning, and a layer of ash fell at his feet.

Without a doubt, this was not pure fog, but an extremely rare black insect, also known as the Abyss Monster.

The abyss is extremely dangerous because of the existence of these abyssal worms.

These abyssal worms can burrow into a person's body, constantly infecting their emotions, and even parasitizing their body, thus becoming the mother organism for the hatching of these abyssal worms.

Many powerful individuals who are unaware of these rules easily fall into their trap, ultimately becoming nourishment for the abyss.

"This abyssal worm is really powerful."

Xu Changjun held what looked like an enlarged flea in his hands. This abyssal worm was extremely aggressive, constantly biting at his hands.

Clearly, ordinary energy cannot cause much damage to this abyssal monster; only the hottest and most powerful energies, such as thunder and the sun, can pose a fatal threat to it.

The abyssal worm slashed with its six needle-like claws, tearing at space, while its sharp mouth spewed and bit everywhere, making a "crackling" sound.

Stab it!

In an instant, a bolt of lightning flashed between Xu Changyun's fingers, and the abyssal monster was instantly reduced to charcoal, turning to ashes without even uttering a sound.

"It is said that this abyssal worm is the source of all the mutations of abyssal monsters!"

The abyssal worms hidden in the black mist, while not a major threat to Xu Changjun, have unimaginable uses; they are an indispensable presence in the deep underground abyss.

Whoosh!

Once the abyssal worms had completely disappeared at the end of the passage, Xu Changjun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although he passed through safely, the terrifying power of the abyssal worms still left him with lingering fear.

These terrifying abyssal worms not only devour creatures of all races, but even the abyssal monsters that stand in their way seem to become their food.

Ants can kill an elephant if they are numerous, let alone a swarm of abyssal worms.

He witnessed a gigantic monster, as tall as a small mountain, being devoured by the abyssal worms in an instant, leaving not even a bone behind.

"This is truly a forbidden place, unsuitable for survival!"

This was already the umpteenth time Xu Changjun had felt the terror of this underground abyss.

"Have we finally arrived?"

After encountering the terrifying abyssal worms on the island, the road ahead seemed to become much smoother, and there were no more attacks from any ghosts.

"Have we finally arrived at our destination?"

Finally, Xu Changjun seemed to see the end of the passage. He couldn't help but take a deep breath to suppress his excitement.

Xu Changjun has gone through many hardships and narrowly escaped death along the way.

First, they were hunted down by the Taiyu Immortal Dynasty, and eventually had no choice but to enter the underground abyss. Then they were attacked by various terrifying abyssal ghosts and abyssal monsters. After going through countless hardships, they finally arrived at the destination marked on the map.

"Perhaps even Ape Seven is unaware of the dangers lurking here!"

Xu Changjun believed that even Yuan Qi was unaware that the map he left behind would mark such a great danger, yet it entrusted its only offspring to him.

Clearly, this map was not marked randomly; it must have been left by their ancestors.

So far, everything is fine. Although he encountered a series of dangers and difficulties, Xu Changjun has come through them unscathed.

"Let me see what's hidden in the places marked on the map?"

After a moment of contemplation, Xu Changjun no longer hesitated and strode towards the bottom, eventually stopping in front of the mountain wall.

"It seems there's nothing there?"

Xu Changjun was initially somewhat expectant, wanting to see what good things this bottomless abyss treasure trove had left behind.

To his surprise, there was nothing in sight, just a completely empty space, with only a dark wall blocking his view.

"An open space? This... you can't be joking, can you?!"

Xu Changjun's expression was somewhat grim. This was completely different from what he had expected; he had not found any treasure in this depths at all.

"No, someone else might pull a prank like that, but Ape Seven would never do that."

"This treasure map was clearly left to its descendants by the Six-Eared Macaque ancestor; there's no way it could have been forged!"

Xu Changjun, who was initially a little embarrassed and annoyed, realized the problem after a moment's thought.

Ding ding!

Reaching out and gently tapping the black wall, a crisp metallic clanging sound immediately rang out.

Clearly, the black wall in front of them stood there like metal, blocking the space through which divine sense could penetrate.

"It can even block divine sense; this wall must be something extraordinary!"

This discovery greatly excited Xu Changjun, because in the Primordial World, there are not many things that can block divine sense, and each one is extremely precious.

It is impossible for anyone to create a black wall out of thin air in the bottomless abyss, especially using such a precious material as the barrier to divine sense.

"Perhaps the treasure marked on the map is located behind this black wall."

Xu Changjun then tried various methods, but none of them had any effect on the black wall.

It's like an incredibly sturdy shield; it's virtually impossible for Xu Changjun to penetrate it with his current abilities.

After trying for a few more moments, Xu Changjun gave up. He knew very well that there was no chance of opening the black wall with such ordinary means.

"Are we just going to sit here and watch the treasure mountain go empty-handed? That would be a complete disservice to all the difficulties and dangers we've encountered along the way."

"Even the dead Sarutobi must blame himself..."

Xu Changjun stared at the black wall, and suddenly a word popped into his mind, making his eyes light up instantly.

"This treasure must have been left behind by my ancestor, the Six-Eared Macaque, and it should require the bloodline of the Six-Eared Macaque to unlock!"
