"this……"

The moment they saw the stone tablet, they both fell silent.

Obviously no one had expected that in this mysterious secret realm, there was actually a Yellow Springs Road leading to the Nine Netherworld.

Looking at the road that was filled with fog, ancient, old, and dead silence, Ye Qiu fell into deep thought.

"The other side of the underworld! I heard that this is the road to rebirth. Anyone who walks through the underworld road can never turn back."

"Life and death are just a matter of moments. Are we going to hell together?"

With a hint of teasing, Mingyue rolled her eyes at him unhappily and replied, "It's already this hour, and you're still joking."

"Now let's think about how to leave this damn place."

Ye Qiu fell silent, thinking silently for a moment, then he said, "I think this road must exist here for a reason."

"This is the underground secret place of the True Phoenix's Lair. Perhaps this is a path he left intentionally to guide future generations. Or maybe he wants to express something, but we still don't know."

"Since these immortals brought us here, there must be some deep meaning behind this road."

After careful analysis, Ye Qiu became firm in his inner thoughts. He and Mingyue looked at each other, and both of them had crazy thoughts in their eyes.

Walk!

Or don't leave.

Going means that they will experience an extremely dangerous situation. On the other side of the underworld, there are many ancient demons sleeping. Any one of them will not be easy for them to deal with.

If they don't leave, it means they will be trapped here forever.

This is a question of decision!

Thinking of this, Ye Qiu suddenly realized something.

"It seems like there are two choices, but in fact, it seems that we only have one choice!"

"Just like this cruel world, only by moving forward courageously can you achieve eternal life."

"If we stay where we are, we will be drowned in the long river of history."

"It looks safe, but it will always be someone else's pet in a cage, a meal on a plate..."

Having said this, Ye Qiu fell into deep thought, and the various cruel realities that the Great Emperor Zhenwu had mentioned at the beginning emerged in his mind.

He always felt that these things were still far away from him, but he did not realize that he had already embarked on this path of no return a long time ago.

There is no turning back on the other side of the underworld! Just like the road to becoming an immortal, there is no turning back either.

Either you have the determination to face death head-on, break through the shackles of this order, and break the fetters of immortality.

Or, it will be buried in the long river of history and become dry bones in a tomb.

Ye Qiu has deeply understood the hardships along the way, and embarking on this path means what kind of pain he will have to endure in the future.

This is a tough decision!

"Walk?"

After a long silence, Mingyue spoke. Her heart seemed to be more determined than Ye Qiu, as determined as ever.

Ye Qiu looked into her eyes and smiled...a very bright smile.

With such a beautiful woman by his side, he has nothing to fear even if there are endless risks in the future.

"Haha... That's exactly what I meant! Senior Sister, it looks like we're going to die together today."

"It doesn't matter whether we live or die, it's not a loss to be a pair of desperate mandarin ducks."

"screw you."

Mingyue glared at him and said in a calm and serious tone: "Even if we want to do it, we will be a loving couple."

"We won't die. We will keep going."

After saying that, she took the initiative to pull Ye Qiu's hand and held it tightly. She was afraid that the turbulent flow of the Yellow Spring would sweep Ye Qiu away from her, so she was extremely cautious and careful.

With a gentle reach of his other hand, a magic sword suddenly appeared in his hand. Mingyue was ready for battle.

No matter how dangerous the road ahead is, she will endure it all.

Seeing her so ready, Ye Qiu put away his playful heart. Mingyue was ready to fight for him.

Even if not for himself, Ye Qiu would have to fight for her.

Thinking of this, Ye Qiu's eyes turned cold, and a fairy sword appeared in his hand. He said in a relaxed tone: "Let's go! Today we are going to try this so-called other side of the underworld."

When they joked in the past, they always made fun of the other side of the underworld, but now when they are really facing it, they feel extremely heavy in their hearts.

Because this seemingly peaceful and ancient road is actually full of dangers and crises.

There sleep many ancient demons and invincible beings from the ancient times of immortals. Almost no outsider who accidentally breaks in here can walk out alive.

At the beginning, the Ye clan paid a lot of price and sacrificed many strong people, but they only managed to get some opportunities on the periphery and did not dare to break into that forbidden zone of life.

Everyone knows that there are magical treasures on the other side of the underworld, and there grow many magical herbs and precious medicines, but no one dares to take them.

The biggest reason may be because of the ancient demons sleeping on the other side of the underworld.

Most of those who are not afraid of death and want to give it a try have now become fertilizer on this road.

The two of them fell into complete silence at this moment. They silently took the first step and walked into the other side of the underworld.

They didn't speak, but communicated with their eyes the whole time, alerting each other to everything that was happening around them.

The sound of deer calling kept coming to their ears. At the entrance of the road, a few deer on the cliff of Xianlu kept looking back, watching them, and calling deer from time to time.

"The deer turned back!"

Looking at this picturesque scene, Ye Qiu was silent for a moment and said, "Xianlu must have a reason for turning back. Senior Sister, be careful..."

After taking a hundred steps, Ye Qiu said his first words, observing all the movements around him with vigilant eyes.

Flying sand and yellow smoke filled the sky, blocking all sight ahead. Even though Mingyue's face was very close, Ye Qiu could not see it clearly.

A strong wind swept in, and a strong turbulence instantly tore through the void, tearing a hole in it.

The strong impact caused both of their bodies to tremble.

Mingyue held the sword in her left hand and was about to sweep away the turbulence in front of her when she was suddenly pulled by Ye Qiu.

"careful!"

A giant lizard suddenly jumped out from the rolling yellow sand. Ye Qiu pulled it hard, protected Mingyue in front of his chest, and swept the sword with his right hand.

“Get lost!”

The blood instantly dyed the yellow sand red. A giant lizard was lying on the ground, dead in a very miserable state.

Mingyue was still a little frightened and was horrified when she saw the giant lizard on the ground.

"Sacrifice to the fierce beast!"

We had only walked a hundred steps when such a powerful beast appeared. If we go further, we don’t know what kind of horrible thing will pop up.

At this moment, she was still in shock. Just now, she had been paying attention to Ye Qiu's movements, but ignored herself. If Ye Qiu had not acted in time, she would probably have been seriously injured.

I couldn't help but secretly warn myself that I couldn't be so careless anymore, otherwise I wouldn't be able to continue on the road ahead.
