Despite knowing that Chu Mo had made preparations, Chen Weiguo and the others were still extremely worried.
Seeing Chu Mo silently observing him in the passageway, he couldn't help but give him a word of advice:
"Xiao Chu, this place is too strange. Even Nascent Soul cultivators have perished here. You must be extremely careful."
Zhang Qidao also looked solemn: "That's right, you are the pillar of the nation. If you find something is wrong when you get down there, you must not force yourself."
Chu Mo smiled slightly, turned to the crowd, and said earnestly:
"Please rest assured, everyone. I will not act rashly. If things become unmanageable, I will immediately exit the passage."
"That's good. As long as you're alive, there's hope."
Zhang Qidao and the others were finally able to relax a little.
However, their slightly trembling hands betrayed their anxiety.
Chu Mo didn't say anything more and continued to examine the massive project in front of him.
This is a huge concrete cave that extends downwards at a 30-degree angle.
The thick iron gate that was originally used to block the passage has long been destroyed.
Next to a single-track traction rail, countless steps were also built.
The entire cave is about the same size as a regular train tunnel.
The only difference is that this tunnel has no lighting, yet it is not dark.
A strange, bluish light emanated from inside the cave.
Chu Mo didn't think much of it. After instructing everyone to stand far away, he made a thought.
A cyan jade box appeared out of thin air in his palm, which he solemnly opened.
A mysterious and terrifying aura surged forth from within.
However, the aura vanished instantly upon touching his body.
Inside the jade box was a fist-sized, crystal-clear golden demon core.
Inside the demon core dwells a strange creature with deer antlers, fish scales, and a dragon tail—the spirit of the Chaos Golden Essence Cauldron, the Little Qilin.
"Master, come with me quickly."
A proud and childish voice rang in Chu Mo's mind.
Then the demon core suddenly rose into the air and sped into the cave.
Chu Mo knew it was the little Qilin talking to him, so he quickly followed.
After traveling for about two thousand meters, they finally arrived at the end of the passage, and the demon core stopped.
Just over ten meters ahead, the passage was completely blocked by a strange piece of jade that looked like glass.
The jade was translucent and golden in color, shimmering and dazzling.
A terrifying and sinister killing intent spread violently from it.
At this moment, Chu Mo, who was in the Nascent Soul stage, felt as weak as an ant.
The intense killing intent emanating from the depths of his soul made his face turn deathly pale, and his blood boil violently.
It felt as if the next moment, my whole body would be completely blown apart and burned.
This pain was no less than when he first stepped into the Abyss of Burial Gods.
He was filled with shock.
This was the second time in his life that he felt life was so fragile and that he was powerless to control his own destiny.
Fortunately, the next moment...
The demon core that had been hovering beside him suddenly unleashed a mysterious power, instantly severing the killing intent.
The little Qilin has made its move.
Originally residing inside the demon core, it now manifested as a solid phantom, hovering above the demon core.
The moment the little Qilin appeared, an aura of majesty and holiness filled the entire underground passage.
The lingering pain in Chu Mo's body vanished instantly, leaving him feeling completely comfortable.
"Little master, watch me break the formation for you!" The little Qilin looked smug and proud.
After saying that, it raised one of its front hooves and stomped hard on the glass and jade.
Countless purple runes instantly covered the entire glass jade stone like a spider web.
"roar!"
Thousands upon thousands of eerie ghostly figures suddenly appeared on the previously empty jade stone.
Then they rushed toward the purple rune one after another, as if they wanted to tear it apart completely.
For a moment, the passage was filled with mournful screams, and coupled with the dim, bluish light, it was as eerie and terrifying as hell.
Unfortunately, no matter how the ghostly figures attacked, the runes remained unmoved.
Not only that, all the ghostly figures that came into contact with the runes turned into a thin layer of bloody smoke, just like snow falling into boiling water.
The entire underground passage was soon shrouded in an eerie blood mist.
The cement walls in the passageway were corroded into dried powder by the blood mist in the blink of an eye, and kept falling off.
Chu Mo was horrified. Was this blood mist really so bizarre?
Fortunately, he was protected by the light shield set up by the little Qilin and was not affected.
As time went by, the ghostly figures emerging from the glass and jade gradually decreased in number.
Just when Chu Mo thought the matter was settled.
A terrifying, towering phantom suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of the little Qilin.
"You audacious fiend, how dare you destroy my magic array! You're courting death!"
The phantom snorted coldly, then raised its hand and gently patted the little Qilin.
This slap seemed light and gentle, like a spring breeze.
But as this palm strike was delivered, the entire passageway trembled violently.
The sturdy reinforced concrete passage, more than two thousand meters long, collapsed as easily as tofu, and was destroyed in an instant.
At the point where the two sides clashed, a hazy circle of light shielded the group from all destruction, keeping them completely untouched by the dust.
However, the ground within a radius of a hundred miles was as if a magnitude 12 earthquake had occurred, cracking open with countless terrifying, canyon-like fissures.
Each crack is hundreds of miles long and more than ten miles wide, and its depths are unfathomable.
Zhang Qidao and the others on the ground felt an immense force violently strike them from underground, throwing them into the air.
