Chapter 180: First Entering the Netherworld

"Brother Xiao, are you joking? That place is not easy to go to. You might die there!" Yan Chixia wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked solemnly.

Zhiqiu Yiye was also shocked. No wonder Xiao Zhen asked him before if he knew how to open the passage to the underworld.

Xiao Zhen smiled slightly and comforted him, "Don't worry, I can naturally guarantee your safety by saying such words.

Besides, Brother Yan, you have already been promoted to the Golden Core Stage, why have you become so timid? "

When Yan Chixia heard this, he took a sip of wine without thinking, just to give himself courage.

"Okay! I, Yan Chixia, will accompany you to the underworld!"

After leading everyone to clean up, Yan Chixia drew out his copycat weakened version of the Xuan-Yuan Sword, slashed at the air, and then silently recited a few mantras.

A strange passage appeared in the air, which was invisible to the naked eye. Xiao Zhen discovered this passage only with his powerful soul power.

Yan Chixia bowed to the three of them and said solemnly: "The underworld is full of dangers. If you are not mentally prepared, don't go!"

Seeing that no one backed down, only Zhiqiu Yiye was a little nervous, but it was not a big problem.

Yan Chixia nodded and said calmly: "Follow me!"

Then he himself stepped into the passage first, as if he had suddenly disappeared.

Xiao Zhen was the second one to enter the passage and disappeared just like Yan Chixia.

Zhiqiu Yiye and Xiahou Jianke looked at each other, and then they entered the passage together.

After Xiao Zhen entered the underworld, he looked at the dark sky and saw clusters of strange mist floating by.

"It's really worthy of being the place where ghosts live. It has a really nice atmosphere. If we were to shoot a ghost movie here, we wouldn't have to worry about any scene production." Xiao Zhen said admiringly.

Yan Chixia looked at Xiao Zhen and asked solemnly: "Brother Xiao, I have brought you to the underworld. Now tell me what you want to do!"

Zhiqiu Yiye and Xiahou Jianke, who came from behind, were also listening attentively. It was their first time to go to the underworld recently, so they couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

Xiao Zhen only smiled faintly, but his eyes shone with a gleam of light, and he said proudly: "I have a little feud with the Black Mountain Old Demon in the underworld. Today I am here to save his soul, which can be regarded as a great harm to this world!"

After hearing this, the three of them couldn't help but gasp. As people who were born and raised in this world, they were all very familiar with the famous Black Mountain Demon in the legend.

When they were young, their family would often use the Black Mountain Demon to scare them, but they never expected that they would soon see the demon himself.

Yan Chixia grabbed Xiao Zhen and asked carefully: "Brother Xiao, you are not talking nonsense! You should know that the Black Mountain Old Demon is not only powerful, but also has hundreds of thousands of ghost soldiers under his command. With just a few of us, I'm afraid we can't even deliver food!"

Yan Chixia would also be a little nervous. After all, the Black Mountain Old Demon was not an ordinary monster. He had been entrenched in the City of the Dead for so long and had been constantly interfering with the cycle of reincarnation.

The big sects in the human world are not pushovers either. In the past they often formed groups to enter the underworld in an attempt to wipe out the Black Mountain Demon, but they always ended in failure.

As ghosts from the underworld, they have as many ghost soldiers as they want. If they die, they can be recruited again, and the injured ones can recover quickly.

Xiao Zhen glanced at the three people and said confidently: "Don't worry, I'm prepared. Wait a moment, and watch how the Black Mountain Old Demon and his men are killed."

When the three of them saw how confident Xiao Zhen was, they couldn't help but be infected.

Xiahou Swordsman saw a strange figure walking by. He was so scared that he quickly drew his sword and said in panic, "Look, there's a ghost here!"

Yan Chixia couldn't help but chuckle. Looking at the erratic white figure, he explained, "Don't be nervous. People can't see ghosts in the human world, but ghosts can't see people in the underworld either."

Xiao Zhen nodded. He still remembered this plot, but he didn't know if it was applicable in other worlds.

When Xiahou Jianke heard what Yan Chixia said, he couldn't help but walk up to the ghost to check. He found that the ghost really couldn't see him, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Yan Chixia took out a few yellow talismans, waved them lightly at his men, and then recited a few mantras.

The ghost seemed to have seen something incredible. He pointed at the people and said eagerly, "Live...live people, there are actually live people. That's great. I haven't eaten a live person for a long time!"

Xiao Zhen frowned. This guy had eaten living people before. Could it be that he had been up there? In that case, he couldn't be kept alive. It would be better to just get rid of him.

Yan Chixia snorted coldly, released the aura in his body, and fiercely suppressed the ghost. He put the Xuanyuan Sword against the ghost's neck and threatened: "Be obedient, or I will kill you!"

Feeling the fatal threat, the ghost couldn't help swallowing. You know, he had already died once, and if he died again, he would really lose everything.

"This...Sir, I will definitely cooperate with you. Please be merciful and give me a chance to live!" said the little ghost tremblingly.

Xiao Zhen stared at the little ghost intently. Zhou Shen's terrifying aura was activated. The pressure was more powerful than Yan Chixia's, making it impossible for the little ghost to even breathe.

"Tell us honestly, in which direction is the Black Mountain Demon's lair!" Xiao Zhen asked coldly.

The little ghost's eyes widened, and he screamed in an incredible tone: "You guys are killing yourself, and you actually want to go to the Wrongful Death City to cause trouble for Master Black Mountain!"

Xiao Zhen was very impatient and directly released a trace of thunder-attributed fighting spirit, stimulating the little ghost.

"Ahhhh!!!"

The little ghost let out a heart-wrenching cry, and even his body seemed to have become much dimmer.

Just now, Xiao Zhen also controlled the strength and only destroyed half of the little ghost's soul. If he still didn't behave, he would let him experience the feeling of his soul being torn apart.

A small flame appeared on Xiao Zhen's palm, and he slowly approached the little ghost, threatening: "If you don't want to be burned to death, then tell me!"

The little ghost nodded in fear, fearing that if he answered a little too slowly, he would be burned to death. Although it was just a flame that would be extinguished with a blow, his instinct told him not to get close to the flame, otherwise he would be doomed.

"I... I will lead the way. I will take you to the City of the Dead right now. But please don't burn me!" The little ghost said hurriedly, shaking his head.

Xiao Zhen smiled slightly. As expected, this kid wouldn't behave himself unless he used some tough tactics.

Yan Chixia snorted coldly, pushed the little ghost away, and said lightly: "Lead the way!"

The little ghost nodded quickly, his face full of flattering, but the moment he turned around, the deep resentment in his eyes was well concealed.

How could the resentful look of this little ghost escape Xiao Zhen's soul power? However, Xiao Zhen didn't care. A mere little ghost that was not even in the foundation-building stage could be suppressed and killed with ease.

Although the little ghost didn't know where these people came from, as long as he could bring them to the City of the Dead, there would definitely be a ghost there to deal with them, and then he would be able to get rid of the hatred in his heart.

The few of them encountered quite a few ghosts along the way, but after feeling the pressure emanating from Xiao Zhen and his companions, they all fled.

Xiao Zhen soon saw the outline of a huge city, but the whole city was shrouded in a depressing atmosphere and was gloomy and eerie, and it was obvious that no living people lived there.
