Xian Ni: The God of Killing Returns, Marries Li Muwan at the Beginning

Dark gold runes flowed across the surface of the stone gate, each line meandering and moving as if alive, with hundreds of rhomboid obsidian stones inlaid between the runes.

The obsidian reflects distorted light and shadow, like countless pained and twisted faces screaming silently.

The top is carved with a demon god statue with three heads and six arms. Each of the demon god's hands holds a different magical weapon: a blade, a chain, and a skull. Dark red dried bloodstains are congealed on the magical weapons, as if telling the story of past killings.

The entire stone gate was ten zhang tall, and its surface was covered with spider web-like cracks. A pale purple mist seeped out from the cracks, and amidst the swirling mist, one could vaguely see a huge phantom slowly moving inside the stone gate.

Two black stone pillars stand on either side of the stone gate, with bronze chains wrapped around them. The ends of the chains are deeply embedded in the rock wall, and the surface of the chains is covered with dense incantations.

Each incantation glowed with a ghostly blue light, and as the energy of the stone gate fluctuated, the light of the incantations flickered, emitting a series of low humming sounds.

Silver liquid flowed from the gap at the bottom, and a layer of ice crystals condensed on the surface of the liquid, like liquid moonlight frozen on the ground.

As Lin Che was forced back by the force emanating from the stone gate, the silver liquid suddenly boiled, transforming into countless tiny silver tentacles that wriggled wildly toward Lin Che. The tips of the tentacles gleamed with sharp barbs and emitted a chilling aura.

Lin Che looked surprised and, while stepping back, unleashed his immortal sword, shooting it towards the tentacle in front of him.

Loud bang!

The tentacles disappeared, turning into dust and completely merging into their previous location.

"interesting."

Lin Che glanced at the stone gate in front of him, raised an eyebrow, and also sensed a special energy aura from it. No wonder that beast was able to reach the mid-stage of Nirvana.

"Xu Liguo."

"Master..." Xu Liguo's throat bobbed, and he subconsciously looked at Lin Che in front of him. For some reason, he had a feeling that this guy had ill intentions...

"Go in and take a look."

Xu Liguo's face turned ashen, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground, saying, "Master, please don't harm me. I tried to go in just now, but the formation at the entrance blocked me. I really can't get in."

Seeing Xu Liguo's mournful answer, Lin Che also looked at the array around the stone gate. It seemed that this guy hadn't lied to him.

However, for Lin Che, who cultivates the Ancient God Technique, the array in front of him did not pose much of a threat. After all, the array left behind by the ancient god would definitely be hundreds of times more powerful than the array in front of him.

The eight-star ancient god Tu Si is equivalent to a human Void Profound Realm expert. It's unlikely that a cultivator of that level would appear in the cave before us.

Lin Che sat cross-legged, his fingers moving rapidly as he unleashed a surge of energy, channeling it into the barrier at the entrance of the cave.

"Master is indeed formidable. He can even break through this kind of barrier. He is so powerful that it makes Xiao Xu tremble with fear."

Seeing Lin Che's focused expression, Xu Liguo curled his lip and thought to himself, "Can this jinx really break through the barrier? If he dies, won't I be stuck in this godforsaken place forever?"

"You jinx, you'd better work hard and break through this barrier quickly so that your Grandpa Xu can leave this place..."

The energy emanating from Lin Che's fingertips coiled around the stone gate barrier like a dragon, and the dark golden runes suddenly trembled violently, bursting out with dazzling light.

Within the diamond-shaped obsidian embedded in the stone gate, distorted faces began to struggle frantically, emitting silent screams.

The pale purple mist seeping from the cracks on the stone gate grew increasingly dense, transforming into hideous ghost faces that lunged at Lin Che.

"change!"

Lin Che remained expressionless as golden phantoms of ancient gods rose around him. The phantoms opened their enormous mouths and devoured all the ghostly faces that lunged at him.

He formed complex ancient divine hand seals with his hands, chanting incantations, and an ancient and mysterious power surged from his body, resonating with the stone gate barrier.

On the black stone pillars flanking the stone gate, the eerie blue runes on the bronze chains shone brightly, causing the chains to shake violently as if trying to break free from the constraints of the rock wall. "Break!"

With a roar, Lin Che unleashed a punch from the phantom of the ancient god toward the stone gate.

The barrier rippled, the dark gold runes began to crumble, and the rhombus-shaped obsidian stones exploded, scattering black fragments.

The demon statue atop the stone gate emitted a burst of red light from its eyes and brandished its magical artifact, forming a blood-red barrier in an attempt to block Lin Che's attack.

However, the Ancient God Technique that Lin Che cultivated was incredibly powerful. The ancient god phantom unleashed its power once more, pounding the blood-red barrier with punch after punch.

Each collision triggered a violent spatial tremor, causing the surrounding rock walls to crack and rubble to fall like rain.

The silver liquid at the bottom of the stone gate boiled again, this time transforming into a gigantic silver python that opened its blood-red maw and lunged at Lin Che.

"court death."

Lin Che sneered, and the light of the immortal sword in his hand suddenly surged, transforming into a golden sword light that pierced straight for the giant python's throat.

The giant python roared, and as it twisted its body, countless tiny silver tentacles extended from its body, densely wrapping around Lin Che.

Lin Che's body shone with golden light, forming a golden protective shield that repelled all the tentacles.

At the same time, he swung his immortal sword repeatedly, the sword light flashing like lightning, cutting the giant python into several pieces.

With the death of the giant python, the power of the stone gate barrier began to weaken rapidly.

Lin Che seized the opportunity, and the ancient god phantom struck with all its might, shattering the blood-red barrier.

The dark gold runes on the surface of the stone door completely disappeared, and the entire stone door groaned as it slowly opened, as if it could no longer bear the weight.

A powerful and mysterious aura surged out from the stone gate, invigorating Lin Che.

The stone gate slowly opened, revealing a passage that emitted a faint blue light.

The walls on both sides of the passage are inlaid with countless luminous crystals, illuminating the road ahead.

At the end of the passage, a faint golden light flickered, radiating a powerful pressure.

Xu Liguo hid behind Lin Che, peeking out with fear and curiosity on his face.

"Walk."

Lin Che strode into the passage, his eyes scanning his surroundings warily.

The passageway was silent, with only the sound of his and Xu Liguo's footsteps echoing in the empty space.

As he ventured deeper, Lin Che could sense the growing power of the aura ahead, a power that even made his heart tremble.

Suddenly, array patterns lit up on the walls on both sides of the passage, and countless black shadows surged out from the walls, rushing towards Lin Che.

These shadows resembled vengeful ghosts, their eyes gleaming with an eerie green light, and they exuded a nauseating stench of decay.

Lin Che remained calm, and once again drew his immortal sword. With a flash of sword light, he slashed down the approaching shadows one by one.

However, these shadows seemed endless, wave after wave, threatening to completely engulf Lin Che… (End of Chapter)
