"Palace Master, please wait!" Wu Changhua hurriedly stepped forward and stopped Ye Qiu. "Palace Master, this passage is extremely dangerous. One wrong step and you'll be doomed. Are you going down now?"
"Yes," Ye Qiu said. "Don't worry, just do your job."
"Palace Master..."
Wu Changhua hesitated, looking terrified.
Because if something happens to Ye Qiu, Zu Long City will collapse instantly.
And he and those 100,000 people were returned to their previous lives of oppression.
Perhaps it will be worse than before; they may be massacred by the angry border troops.
So it's no exaggeration to say that Ye Qiu is now their god, their god.
"I'm telling you, you're really meddling in other people's business. The Lord is confident he can go down, so why are you so nervous? Aren't you indirectly cursing the Lord to die?"
Beitang Yu glared at Wu Changhua.
Wu Changhua's expression changed slightly: "Don't talk nonsense. I didn't think that way. I'm just worried about the safety of the Palace Master."
"Alright, Changhua, go and supervise their work, and make sure they're careful," Ye Qiu said.
"Okay, then you need to be careful."
Wu Changhua turned around and left somewhat reluctantly.
Ye Qiu walked step by step toward the entrance of the passage, feeling a little nervous.
Ye Qiu also sensed that this passage was extremely unusual.
“Teacher, I want to go down with you,” Beitang Yu said.
"No." Ye Qiu refused outright: "We don't know what the situation is down there yet. It would be extremely dangerous for you to come down with me rashly."
"What I like most is danger, it's exciting."
"Get lost." Ye Qiu glared at Bei Tangyu. "If you don't behave, I'll send you away."
"But I really want to go down." Beitang Yu stamped her foot. "How about this, I'll go down and explore with you. If anything happens, you won't be responsible, and I promise my brother won't cause you any trouble either. Is that alright?"
"You're so fussy."
Ye Qiu raised his hand and slapped Beitang Yu unconscious.
Then, Ye Qiu said to the two women not far away, "Come over here and keep an eye on her, don't let her do anything reckless."
"yes."
"Lord, leave it to us."
Two women stepped forward and stood guard beside Beitang Yu.
Ye Qiu strode straight into the underground passage.
The ancient underground passage was constructed from an unknown material.
The ground was covered with runes, shimmering with chaotic light.
Moreover, chaotic energy kept surging up from the depths of the passage.
Ye Qiu immediately felt an immense sense of pressure.
The oppressive feeling made him dizzy and his blood flow slowed down, as if he were suffocating.
As Ye Qiu ventured ten meters deeper, just ten meters in, his whole body began to ache, as if his muscles were about to split open.
Even someone as strong as Ye Qiu faces immense pressure; for most cultivators, entering this place would mean facing a near-death experience.
Ye Qiu took a deep breath and simultaneously activated all his techniques, transforming them into the Chaos Technique to bless himself.
With the blessing of the Chaos Law, Ye Qiu's pressure instantly eased.
Because the Chaos Law and the Chaos Qi emerging in the passage share the same origin, the suppressive force of this Chaos Qi on Ye Qiu has been greatly weakened.
In addition, Ye Qiu's own physical body was strong, so he felt no pressure inside the passage.
Ye Qiu walked deeper into the passage, observing the situation as he went.
After going a hundred meters deeper, Ye Qiu saw that the passage had widened considerably, and exquisitely crafted eternal lamps appeared on both sides.
These ever-burning lamps continue to illuminate deeper into the interior.
Ye Qiu continued forward, and the deeper he went, the more his scalp tingled, as if a pair of terrifying eyes were staring at him from the shadows.
But Ye Qiu did not stop. Ten minutes later, Ye Qiu saw a black humanoid skeleton on the ground.
The humanoid skeleton was in a strange posture, as if it were worshipping something, and then suddenly died during the worship.
Ye Qiu walked closer and examined it carefully, but found no marks on the black skeleton.
But the fact that the skeleton was entirely black puzzled Ye Qiu.
"Why is the skeleton black? Could it be poisoning?"
Ye Qiu frowned and muttered to himself.
boom.
Just as Ye Qiu was pondering, the black skeleton suddenly straightened up.
The sudden turn of events startled Ye Qiu.
But the black skeleton's transformation had only just begun. In a short time, its flesh and blood recombined, transforming into a disheveled adult man with two horns on his head and bloodshot eyes, as if possessed by a demon.
Ye Qiu's expression was solemn as he prepared for a major battle.
But the next second, Ye Qiu saw an even more astonishing scene.
He saw a stunningly beautiful woman appear in front of him.
The woman was dressed in white, her face obscured by a hazy light, making it impossible to see her true features.
The man, as if possessed, knelt down upon seeing the woman and prostrated himself in worship.
The woman opened her mouth, seemingly saying something, but Ye Qiu couldn't hear her voice.
The man trembled all over, and the next second, his flesh and bones disappeared, turning into a black skeleton.
The woman then vanished as if she had never existed.
Ye Qiu stood there, stunned. Looking at the black skeleton on the ground, it was still the same as when he first saw it, without any change.
"Was what we just saw an illusion? Or is this place special, like a video recording capturing the man's life before his death?"
Ye Qiu muttered to himself, completely baffled by the mystery.
Without giving it much thought, he stepped over the black skeleton and continued forward.
This time, Ye Qiu hadn't gone far when he saw an ancient gate.
To be precise, it wasn't a door in the true sense, but rather a portal formed by chaotic ripples. With a slight distortion, Ye Qiu could vaguely see a huge space behind the door, which appeared to contain an ancient altar.
