Chapter 4101 Black and White Forest
Originally, everyone still held a sliver of hope that they could turn back on the spot, but now it seems that's not going to work.
In other words, we must now venture deep into the Netherworld and find the boundary between Yin and Yang before we can return.
However, we know nothing about the dangers of this Netherworld, and we have even less knowledge of where the Yin-Yang boundary is.
Running around in such a dangerous place, they might die without even knowing how.
Instead of rushing forward, we discussed our next move.
Kassan said directly, "In that case, I will vanish into the void and scout ahead. If there is any danger, I will inform you in advance using telepathic communication."
For now, this is the only way. I patted him on the shoulder to signal him to be careful.
Kassan responded and immediately turned and vanished into the void, scouting ahead for us.
Not long after he left, our group also cautiously walked forward.
This godforsaken place was dark and utterly silent, with only a few red, lava-like things churning on the ground, creating a sliver of light, as if it had no end in sight.
No one knows what we will encounter next, and we are all filled with fear at this moment.
It is very likely that we will not be able to leave this dark place alive.
This place was scorching hot, and the air was filled with a smell that was like sulfur or something burning.
We walked on for several hours, and the scenery in front of us seemed to remain unchanged. Everyone was sweating profusely from the heat. Occasionally, I would swing the Shengxie Sword to unleash its icy power and cool everyone down.
However, ice melts quickly when it hits the ground and cannot last long at all.
Walking in this dark and seemingly endless place evokes a faint sense of death, making one feel utterly hopeless.
This is the legendary underworld, quite different from what I imagined.
So we walked a little further, and Kassan's voice came to mind: "There's something ahead, go around him for 300 meters."
Hearing Kassan say this, everyone looked at each other, curious about what had happened ahead.
So everyone stopped going straight, turned left and walked several hundred meters, making a big detour, and continued forward.
As we walked, we came across a large pit ahead, with red lava churning and spewing out. What was even more incredible was that from the lava-filled pit, there was a monster radiating flames, covered in golden scales, and capable of breathing fire.
This thing looks like it's not to be trifled with. Luckily, we're a bit far away from it, so the monster hasn't noticed us.
We sped up, avoided the fire pit, and traveled several miles before stopping.
At that moment, Kassan appeared beside the group. Seeing that everyone looked somewhat shaken, he smiled and said, "Did you see that monster?"
Everyone nodded in agreement, but Little Fatty couldn't help asking, "What is that thing? It looks really powerful."
“That’s a divine beast called the Flame Qilin. Little Ninth Brother also has one, but it’s very young. What you saw was a fully grown Flame-Eyed Qilin, which is extremely powerful, so we’d better keep our distance,” Kasang explained to us.
"How come Brother Jiu has a Flame Qilin Beast? Does that mean he's been to this Netherworld Land before?" Brother Gu asked.
“He definitely came here, and he was brought here by Master Long Yao of the Maoshan Sect. He came from the Yin-Yang Realm, and he also left from the Yin-Yang Realm. At that time, he encountered a very small fire Qilin beast, which was not very aggressive, so he took it away from the Netherworld.” Kasang said again.
The slovenly Taoist priest turned back to look in the direction of the flaming Qilin beast, and began to hatch another wicked plan.
"Hey Lao Luo, forget about dealing with that Flame Qilin Beast. That pit is full of lava; it can even bathe in it. Dealing with us would be a piece of cake. What if there's more than one Flame Qilin Beast? That would be even more troublesome. The most important thing right now is to get out of here alive. Don't think about anything else," I quickly reminded the slovenly Taoist.
After hearing this, the slovenly Taoist priest gave up his idea of capturing the fiery Qilin beast.
However, the slovenly Taoist's cultivation method is fire-based. If he could really capture a Fire-Eyed Qilin Beast, it would be like adding wings to a tiger for him.
Kassan greeted us and continued to lead the way. We followed Kassan for a while, and then some things began to appear indistinctly ahead.
Some of them resemble tall trees.
I never imagined that plants could grow in a place like the Netherworld, where there is no light at all.
Before long, we approached the area and, upon closer inspection, discovered that it was indeed a forest.
However, the plants growing here are all black, white, and gray.
The tall trees were black, and the leaves they grew were gray. Everything around us was this color, which made us feel very depressed.
We don't know if there are any creatures in this black and white forest that could threaten us.
This black and white forest seemed to have no end; all around was deathly silent, and not a sound could be heard.
We were like headless flies, just walking in one direction.
And so, after walking for who knows how long, Little Fatty suddenly said he was hungry and couldn't walk any further.
Hearing what Xiao Pang said, we realized that we hadn't eaten anything for a long time, and we had been walking for almost ten hours in this dark place.
Fortunately, both the slovenly Taoist priest and I had stored up plenty of food and drink.
Even if we are trapped in this dark land for two or three years, we won't starve to death with this food.
So we found a random spot, and I took out some food and drinks from the Dragon Tiger Mirror and distributed them. After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, we continued on our way.
Kassan also took some food and drink and continued to keep watch around the area for us.
Just as we were eating and drinking, Kassan's voice suddenly rang in our minds: "Oh no, the two guardians of the Piercing Chest Kingdom are coming after us!"
We were all startled when we heard Kassan say that.
Why are the two guardians who didn't come in with us at first, now chasing after us? Aren't they afraid of not being able to get out of the Netherworld?
However, after hearing this terrible news, we lost our appetite and picked up our magical implements, ready to make our escape.
