ing with an abundance of potent energy.With a flash of insight, he understood the source of these energies. For years, his father, Yun Tiankuo, had fed him countless spiritual pills and elixirs to hel...The passage inside Huangquan Tianmu's tomb is filled with a cold and eerie aura.

Even though Yun Hao possesses a perfect Taoist body and a powerful physique, after being tainted by this cold aura, he would experience extremely obvious discomfort. Only by actively circulating the Tai Chu Creation Technique, causing his qi and blood to surge within him, could he control it.

As for the group of people in the Eastern Wilderness Sacred Land, they were protected by one person wielding a powerful defensive artifact that created a barrier of light, shielding them as they moved forward.

Dive deep into the numbers.

The people of the Eastern Sacred Land stopped.

Before them appeared nine branching paths.

Everyone looked to Hong Jiao, the leader, waiting for her to make a decision!

Hong Jiao stood at these crossroads, her hands forming seals. A layer of dreamlike and ethereal light bloomed from her body.

Among the radiance.

Fleeting phantoms of Hong Jiao appeared one after another.

A total of seven phantoms!

"Phantom Clone!"

Someone exclaimed, and immediately flattered: "Sister Hong actually mastered such a niche secret technique, she's truly amazing!"

Another person chimed in, saying: "I also tried practicing the Phantom Doppelganger technique before, but the difficulty was too great. Plus, the doppelgangers didn't have much combat power, so I gave up. Now it seems like I was short-sighted. There are no useless techniques in this world. Senior Sister Hong is truly far-sighted!"

Although there was no change in her expression, a gleam of triumph flashed in Hong Jiao's eyes. She said calmly: "This secret technique, I only practiced it casually for a few days back then."

Everyone continued to flatter him.

"Seven phantom clones, it only took a few days... Sister Hong's talent is too strong!"

"I even find it hard to get started, while Sister Hong achieved great progress in just a few days. I am so impressed!"

"If Sister Hong gets the chance to enter Huangquan Heavenly Tomb and combines it with her unbelievably powerful talent, she'll surely surpass Jiang Chen in no time!"

"That Ginger Chen, he's too arrogant. When Sister Hong arrives, she'll put him in his place and see if he dares to be so cocky!"

Hong Jiao smiled faintly, then waved her hand.

Seven phantom clones, entering different paths ahead.

All fell silent.

After a while.

Hong Jiao's body trembled slightly, and she said, "The seven branching paths all hold great danger and should not be entered."

"Then... there are two more paths... which one to choose"

"Is Sister Hong going to use her Illusionary Doppelganger technique again"

Hong Jiao: "The Phantom Doppelganger technique cannot be cast consecutively."

After saying that, her gaze fell on the two people in the ranks.

...

Under duress and with no other options, the two were forced to grit their teeth and enter separate diverging paths.

"Ah!"

From within one of the side paths, an extremely shrill and ghastly scream suddenly rang out.

A group of people from the Eastern Desolate Sacred Land, upon hearing this scream, all turned pale.

This is too scary.

Soon, the screams disappeared.

And another person who went in to scout, rushed out and said, "Hong師姐, this road is safe!"

"Let's go!"

Hong Jiao excitedly shouted, immediately taking everyone into the path they thought was safe.

Yun Hao then appeared.

He has been following this group of people from the Eastern Desolate Holy Land.

I'm unable to help with that at the moment.

The other party has many people, and they are all strong.

Yun Hao looked at the nine paths before him. He didn't choose the path that Hong Jiao and the others had entered, but instead used his Heavenly Eye Technique to carefully observe each path.

In his observation.

Nine paths, all dangerous.

The path they entered, seemingly safe, actually concealed a terrifying aura, infinitely more dangerous than the other eight paths!

Finally, Yun Hao chose a less dangerous side path.

"Whew..."

Within the fork in the path, a cold wind howled.

The power that Yunhao's physique had mustered for protection was corroded by the Yin wind directly. When the Yin wind fell on his skin, it vanished in an instant, revealing his bones.

Yun Hao immediately activated the Taichu Creation Sutra with all his might.

The ravaged flesh grew anew, its radiant corporeal radiance illuminating the dark passage. The surging vital energy completely blocked the howling ghostly wind.

"Hissss..."

As Yun Hao continued deeper into the branch.

Every now and then, faint growls could be heard, rising and falling in a broken rhythm.

Yun Hao's spiritual power silently unfolded.

However, it didn't detect any abnormalities at all.

We walked a little further.

Suddenly, a feeling of extreme danger arose from his heart.

Yun Hao acted decisively, teleporting in an instant!

"Pffft!"

He was originally standing where, suddenly, a strange force ripped open a deep pit!

At this moment, Yun Hao finally discovered the source of the sense of crisis that had arisen in his heart!

A completely black snake!

This snake, only as thick as an arm, coiled its body around a protruding stone pillar on the tunnel wall. Its upper half was suspended in mid-air, its crimson tongue flicking constantly, emitting a hissing sound.

The most eerie of all was a pair of snake eyes.

The snake's eyes are yellow!

Unless he saw it with his own eyes, this snake, even if it appeared at his feet, he would be unable to sense its presence!

There is absolutely no sign of any energy fluctuations!

"Phantom Snake!"

Yun Hao recognized the origin of this object, but his heart was filled with excitement.

This is a creature that lives alongside the Yellow Springs Water.

Wherever there is a Netherworld Serpent, it means there must be Huangquan Water nearby!

The netherworld serpent's yellow eyes were fixed on Yun Hao. The next moment, its black body suddenly stiffened, shooting out like a spear and charging towards Yun Hao.

"Whoosh!"

Before the ghostly snake could get close, Yun Hao moved his mind, and a flying sword shot out from his storage ring, slicing directly from the head of the ghostly snake to its tail!

Split in two!

"Plop!"

Two halves of a snake's body lay on the floor of the passage.

A stench of rot filled the air. In the blink of an eye, the Nether Serpent's corpse had decayed into a pool of pus.

The next moment.

"Hiss..."

"Hiss..."

"Hiss..."

Countless roars arose.

On the walls of the passage, countless nether serpents emerged, writhing and coiling endlessly!

In this pitch-black environment, countless yellow snake eyes stared straight at Yun Hao, it was eerie to the extreme.

Yun Hao let out a cold snort.

The next moment, a surge of scorching heat erupted from his spine!

Dragon power blossoms!

Affected by the dragon's might, all the underworld snakes appeared, retreating in fear. The yellow light in their eyes flickered uncertainly.

Yun Hao continued his journey, carrying the might of the dragon with him.

The underworld snakes blocking the way parted!

After a while, Yun Hao finally walked out of the passage and entered an extremely huge underground palace!

Around the palace's underground chamber, there were monstrous statues built.

Every statue, just a glance, will bring a tremendous spiritual pressure!

Suddenly.

Within Yun Hao's sea of consciousness, a ferocious aura erupted. A hideous statue suddenly appeared in his inner world.

This is a grotesque being with green skin and fangs, wielding a pitch-black fork that plunges fiercely into Yun Hao's soul!

"Whoosh!"

The next moment, Yun Hao's sea of consciousness exploded with the half-step ancestral pattern of slaying gods, a golden sword slashing out.

This eerie creature then vanished into nothingness!

Within Yun Hao's sea of consciousness, everything returned to normal. He immediately retracted his gaze from the statue.

The statues in this subterranean palace are too eerie. They can directly invade one's sea of consciousness, making it impossible to defend against!

Even when Yun Hao retracted his gaze from the statue, it was still useless. In a blink of an eye, more grotesque creatures appeared in his mind's eye!

These ferocious creatures emitted sharp, eerie sounds. They were fierce and violent, terrifyingly so!

Yun Hao let out a cold snort. He activated the Zushen Gong with all his might, and his sea of consciousness surged with a mighty golden light. A small golden sword darted back and forth within his sea of consciousness, shattering every strange creature that had infiltrated it!

In the next instant, Yun Hao directly sealed all his qi!

In this way.

This finally stopped happening and we didn't have that trouble anymore.

"What a strange setup!" Yun Hao muttered to himself.

A normal person, encountering such a situation just now, would instinctively avoid looking at those strange statues.

But actually, eyesight is not the key to this strange force invading one's consciousness.

Then, most people will react again, withdrawing their spiritual energy, feeling that this way they won't be invaded by strange forces into their sea of consciousness. But this still doesn't work.

The key to the invasion of strange powers into the sea of consciousness is qi!

Once a hint of breath escapes, that omnipresent power will seep into your mind.

This is a very difficult problem.

It's fine as long as there's no fighting.

Once one needs to take action, their own breath cannot be contained, and in that instant, this eerie power will transform into ferocious beings, invading the Sea of Consciousness and attacking the soul!

In the heat of battle, my mind is clouded with troubles. It's hard to even muster half my fighting strength!

Yunhao, who had found a solution, finally restored peace to his inner world of consciousness.

Available...

Right after that, another wave of intense crisis struck.

Just now, Yun Hao had been dealing with the troubles within the Sea of Consciousness and hadn't had time to look at the other situations. Now... Yun Hao discovered that in front of him... there was a gigantic... nine-headed Nether Python!

The tail of the Nine-Headed Underworld Python, coiled on the ground.

Nine brains stood erect.

Eighteen lanterns-sized, yellowish eyes stared straight at Yun Hao!

In an instant, a layer of cold sweat appeared on Yun Hao's forehead!

This is already a legendary creature!

Thank goodness!

Had he not been maintaining his dragon majesty... and thus imposing a deterrent on this nine-headed Netherworld python, otherwise... under the current state of dealing with troubles in the Sea of Consciousness, if the nine-headed Netherworld python had casually struck down, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

Yun Hao immediately calmed down.

These nine-headed Nether Serpents are not right!

It seems...it's not as terrifyingly powerful as the legend claims!

He soon discovered the problem.

Eight of the Nine-Headed Nether Python's nine heads... all bore obvious wounds...

This is a heavily injured nine-headed nether python.

Of course, even in a heavily injured state, ordinary Emperor Realm powerhouses would be helpless against such legendary creatures.

Yun Hao was preparing to withdraw first.

While the dragon's might still carries a certain degree of deterrence at present, if we delay any further, its power will be insufficient to hold back our enemies!

Just as Yun Hao was about to retreat, his gaze fell upon a black spirit herb growing behind the Nine-Headed Underworld Python!

This black spirit herb has nine leaves. Besides being completely black, it seems unremarkable and has no other special features.

But seeing this elixir, Yun Hao's eyes flickered violently.

Nine Nether Grass!

A super powerful elixir that only has a chance to grow with the water from the underworld, its effects are not inferior to those of the Dragon and Phoenix Blood Fruit!family runs the casinos, the Li family pawnshops, and the Su family arms shops.
