The simple two words "Celestial Master" immediately brought Su Chen back to his senses.

"Master, what's wrong with me?"

"These patterns are problematic; they can disturb one's mind. If you look at them too much, you'll fall for them without even realizing it."

When you first get infected, you can easily pull it out.

If things get too deep, I'm afraid even I won't be able to turn things around.

The Celestial Master forbade Su Chen from looking at the strange patterns, but he himself examined them carefully.

That influence was negligible to him.

However, after only a few breaths, the Celestial Master looked away.

"To influence the spirit and soul."

Completely disregarding the boundaries of one's realm.

It directly destroys one's Dao heart.

Such methods are unprecedented.

The Celestial Master's comments seemed to be deliberately made for Su Chen to hear.

Detailed and straightforward.

"Perhaps it is related to the previous inheritance, but since everything above the Nascent Soul stage has disappeared, I cannot determine what kind of inheritance it is."

The two continued deeper into the area, but this time they didn't go too far.

The once narrow passage suddenly opened up into a bright and spacious area.

A vast space appeared before the master and his disciple.

In the very center, countless pieces of flesh and blood were piled up, and a bizarre statue that had never been seen before was casually piled on top of that pile of flesh and blood.

Su Chen looked at it carefully for a moment before noticing that the statue seemed somewhat similar to the one he had just seen.

"Mountain Lord..."

From a position closer to the front, Su Chen spotted the Mountain Lord at a glance.

But when he looked further away, he discovered that, centered on that pile of flesh and blood, countless demons were densely packed together.

Even though Shan Jun is at the peak of the Golden Core stage, he is only in a slightly earlier region.

Those further ahead have likely already reached the Nascent Soul stage.

"Inanimate object? Living object?"

The Celestial Master showed no sign of restraint, and with a single palm strike, several statues in front of him shattered instantly.

Then they turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared completely before our eyes.

"They look like ordinary statues."

As soon as the Celestial Master finished speaking, Su Chen saw the statue at the very front seem to blink.

"Master, something doesn't seem right."

Su Chen tensed up instantly.

If these statues were all alive, given the sheer number of them here, they could easily overwhelm the master and his apprentice.

This represents the number of Nascent Soul demons, numbering in the hundreds.

Even if the Celestial Master is incredibly strong, he probably couldn't withstand that many, right?

"Don't be nervous, there are no energy fluctuations."

This place is more like a large altar, dedicated to the one in the very center.

The Celestial Master looked closely at the statue on the mountain of flesh and blood in the very center.

There is not a single record of it in any of the various ancient books of Longhu Mountain.

Even though the surrounding atmosphere seemed somewhat lifeless.

Looking at that statue, however, unexpectedly evoked a sense of peace, as if it had an innate ability to calm people down.

Just as the Celestial Master wanted to get closer and observe the statue more closely, the large number of demons around him suddenly stirred.

Just like before, it transformed into clusters of dark clouds.

"Playing tricks and deception."

Trying to test me?

With a mere flick of his hand, the Celestial Master dispelled the dark clouds that had been giving Su Chen a headache.

But this seemed to be just a signal; more statues began to stir.

The foundation is built layer upon layer.

From its initial state as an inanimate object, it gradually developed demonic nature.

The stronger the demon, the more of its bloodline abilities it seems to unleash once it gets moving.

The Celestial Master was like an insurmountable mountain; simply standing in front of Su Chen blocked all the pressure.

All the methods these statues employed failed to get the Celestial Master to give his all.

Even the mountain lord, who nearly chased Su Chen to the point of having nowhere to run, didn't make the Celestial Master draw the sword from behind him.

With just a simple, unadorned palm strike, the mountain lord was torn to pieces.

If it weren't for the extremely similar aura emanating from the mountain lord, he would have thought that what stood here was just a fake.

It wasn't until Su Chen saw the group of statues at the front stand up that the Celestial Master slowly drew the long sword from his back.

"Disciple, wait here for a moment, I will be right back."

After the Celestial Master finished speaking, his figure flew out.

Those demons, who were originally infamous for their ferocity, were as easily destroyed as clay chickens and earthenware dogs under the Celestial Master's sword.

Hundreds of Nascent Soul statues could not withstand more than three moves from the Celestial Master.

However, the atmosphere in the entire space became increasingly intense.

The flesh and blood at the very center had vanished without a trace.

The statue that once stood there now had eyes that emitted a dim red light.

As the Celestial Master grew more and more enthusiastic in his killing spree, the red light in the statue's eyes began to intensify.

Only when the red light became undeniable did the Celestial Master slowly stop.

"A near-all-around attack on the body, mind, soul, and Dao."

Most people simply couldn't withstand it.

Disciple, watch carefully.

I will only demonstrate for you once.

As soon as the Celestial Master finished speaking, he became a phantom.

Su Chen could clearly sense the Celestial Master's every move.

It was as if it wasn't the Celestial Master rushing forward, but himself.

Just as the Celestial Master said, the opponent's attack was all-encompassing.

Any weakness in any area will become a target for the opponent's fierce attack.

Demons whose primary purpose is killing are naturally unable to withstand such an invasion.

However, even ordinary cultivators probably wouldn't be able to persist for long.

Just like the results of Su Chen's previous simulation.

The battle between the Celestial Master and the statue was a back-and-forth affair.

The entire space was filled with murderous intent.

Even though Su Chen stood still, protected by the Celestial Master, he could still sense the danger.

However, at such a tense moment, a figure suddenly appeared beside Su Chen.

Lu Wuyai!

"It's definitely more lively underground."

The Celestial Master truly lives up to his name; he's even more powerful than I imagined.

Lu Wuyai watched the show with an air of detached amusement, showing no intention of offering any assistance.

What's the situation on the ground?

"Almost everyone is fighting."

It's a complete mess.

Nascent Soul cultivators are already among the strongest people in this world.

Even so, they still had a very difficult time.

The main reason is that we haven't encountered similar opponents.

Even with Su Chen's repeated warnings, some people still fell for the trick.

"They haven't gone all out yet; they're still testing each other."

It seems there's still a long way to go.

After Lu Wuyai finished speaking, he simply stood silently in front of Su Chen and watched the battle.

The Celestial Master's thunder magic is very strong, but his swordsmanship is even stronger.

One man with one sword forced the statue to retreat in defeat.

Even though the statue fought back several times, it still couldn't break through the Celestial Master's momentum.

"Kid, they're coming."

The Celestial Master's strongest sword strike.
