Battle Through the Heavens: He marries Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate the marriage!

Chapter 175 Subduing the Demon Ming!

Gu Fei stopped beside the Nine Netherworlds and squatted down, his palm touching the lake water.

In that instant, a deep yellow ice crystal rapidly climbed up his arm. Fortunately, Gu Fei had a strange fire with him, which instantly melted the condensed ice crystal.

"Cai'er, Zi Yan, it's extremely cold and damp here. I'm afraid even the people of the Nine Netherworld Python clan wouldn't be able to endure it for long!"

"Therefore, except in special circumstances, no one usually comes here!"

"You two wait here for me, I'm going to the bottom of the Nine Netherworld!"

"Husband, be careful!"

"Thump!"

Gu Fei gave the two a few instructions, then moved and crashed into the Nine Netherworld, rushing towards the bottom like lightning.

The chilling power within the Nine Netherworlds was terrifying. Gu Fei had only descended slightly when he sensed that this chilling energy could threaten even some low-level Dou Zun cultivators.

However, given his current cultivation level of advanced semi-saint, it would be somewhat laughable if he still couldn't enter such a place.

"Hiss!"

A moment later, a faint, strange sound suddenly reached his ears, and Gu Fei immediately noticed that the water flow behind him had suddenly accelerated.

In Gu Fei's vision, deep within the Yellow Springs, a dark, oppressive mist was rapidly spreading towards him. It was not the so-called "black mist," but countless small, pitch-black snakes covered in strange scales.

The piercing hissing sound all around was also produced by these strange snakes.

"Hiss!"

Even when these strange snakes were still a long distance away from Gu Fei, they opened their ferocious mouths, and countless jets of dark black water shot out from their mouths.

The whooshing sound of the water breaking reverberated, causing the surrounding lake water to emit a low, explosive sound.

"Get out of here!"

Gu Fei made a move, unleashing several bursts of scorching energy that repelled some of the strange snakes.

However, there were too many of them, so Gu Fei didn't linger and sped up his downwards.

Before long, a glimmer of light appeared at the end of the path.

Upon reaching this depth, the serpent seemed somewhat wary and did not continue to follow.

"Is this the bottom of the Netherworld?"

Soon, what appeared before Gu Fei was an extremely vast expanse of sand and gravel.

"Help...me..."

Suddenly, a faint groan reached Gu Fei's ears through the water.

"Splash!"

Gu Fei grabbed downwards with his palm, and a palm print was immediately left on the sandy ground.

A massive iron chain, hundreds of feet long, buried beneath the sand and stones, was exposed to Gu Fei's view. Gu Fei grabbed at it from a distance, and the chain was slowly pulled out.

As the chains were pulled out, the ground around them suddenly shook, and three more huge chains rose from the mud.

In the center of the chain was a large clump of dark silt, and as the silt dispersed, what was inside was gradually revealed.

It was a person whose entire body was withered and looked like a skeleton.

"Being locked up in this dark underworld for so many years must have been truly agonizing!"

Looking at the skeletal figure, Gu Fei sighed inwardly.

This inhuman torture has continued for so many years; I don't know how they endured it.

"Help me...help me..."

"If you save me, I will make the entire Nine Netherworld Python Clan serve you as their master!"

As Gu Fei gazed at the withered figure, the latter suddenly opened his sunken eyes and looked at Gu Fei with a hint of joy in his eyes.

"You will serve me as your master?"

Hearing the promise made by the skeletal figure, Gu Fei hesitated for a moment.

As a prodigy of an ancient clan, he may inherit the position of clan leader in the future. He doesn't even look down on ordinary people who want to follow him.

However, people like Yao Ming do have some merits. He was originally the patriarch of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan, and his cultivation level reached the second-star Dou Sheng, making him a fairly strong individual.

Even a powerful clan like the Ancient Clan wouldn't be so arrogant as to refuse the loyalty of a Dou Sheng.

"Huff huff..."

The earlier struggle and shouting seemed to have exhausted the skeleton's strength, and now even its breathing was somewhat rapid...

Extremely cold energy emanated from the four enormous chains, consuming the fighting spirit generated within the former's body.

This kept the skeletal figure in a state of extreme weakness.

However, this consumption will not directly harm its life.

And so, he could only eke out a living in this perpetual drain, which was worse than death.

"Young friend, I am Yao Ming, the patriarch of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan... If you can save me, I will definitely fulfill my promise and serve you as my master!"

As Gu Fei hesitated, the skeletal figure spoke again.

"You are no longer the patriarch of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan. That Demon Howler is..."

Gu Fei smiled and shook his head.

"That bastard Yao Xiaotian, it was he who used a vicious scheme to seize my position and sealed me at the bottom of this Netherworld!"

"That beast! He made me suffer from the torment of centuries of icy energy!"

"If I am fortunate enough to see the light of day again in this life, I, Yaoming, will make sure you suffer a fate worse than death!"

Upon hearing the name Yao Xiaotian, the man who called himself Yao Ming's eyes instantly turned blood red.

Gu Fei was naturally very clear about the feud between the two.

Yao Ming is powerful and is the most legitimate candidate for clan leader of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan.

Yao Xiaotian understood this as well. He usually treated Yao Ming with utmost respect, but in secret, he was plotting a vicious scheme.

I have to say!

The demon was sealed here for hundreds of years, and its fate is indeed quite tragic.

"I will help you get out, but the battle for clan leadership is up to you!"

Gu Fei sighed softly and agreed to Yao Ming's request.

"I possess the Nine Netherworld Staff, the token of my Nine Netherworld Python Clan Chieftain..."

"As long as I can escape from the depths of the Yellow Springs and defeat that Yao Xiaotian, I will be the new clan leader!"

Upon hearing this, Yao Ming quickly demonstrated his value to Gu Fei.

"Young friend, all you need to do is help me shatter that Yellow Springs Stone, and I can emerge!"

"Um!"

Gu Fei nodded slightly.

They then found the other end of the four chains, which contained a Yellow Spring Yin Stone imbued with powerful, chilling energy.

"Bang!"

After multiple attacks, the Yellow Spring Yin Stone finally shattered. In that instant, Yao Ming exerted his strength, and the chains broke apart.

Just as Yao Ming broke the seal, a magnificent palace deep within the Nether Serpent's veins was bustling with activity.

On the throne in the main hall sat a man dressed in black.

The black-clad man's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he slightly opened and closed them, like a venomous snake that could kill in an instant.

Beside the man, two alluring women carefully massaged his body, while his large hands roamed over their soft, delicate bodies.

"Um?"

Suddenly, the black-clad man snapped his eyes open, a look of shock in them: "The seal has actually broken?"
