I slay evil in the Department of the Supernatural

Chapter 186, page 185: Divine Manifestation! The Pressure of Sequence Six! Seven Gates Open Simultaneously

Feeling the vast, extraordinary power sweeping across the sky, Xu Lindong was immediately terrified, as if he were facing a true god.

He quickly regained his composure, and before the lingering power in the air had completely dissipated, he sank his consciousness into the Tower of Babel and asked Houtu, "Your Majesty, did you sense it? This power—what level of power is it?"

The top of the tower remained silent for a long while.

It went on until the force outside completely dissipated.

Xu Lindong even started to have wild thoughts.

"Is the Goddess Houtu also afraid of this power, which is why she dares not respond immediately?"

Just then, Houtu's voice finally came from inside the tower, her tone tinged with a sigh: "This is the first sequence of humanity, the power of a human god."

"His power has almost reached the peak of Sequence One—comparable to my prime."

"Unfortunately, he also failed to take that final step—"

"The final step—how ​​exactly can I take it? I've gone through countless reincarnations, lost all my memories, yet I still—can't do it."

Her voice gradually lowered, as if she were muttering to herself, her tone filled with confusion, doubt, and a hidden pain.

Xu Lindong was startled.

Reincarnation? Loss of memory?

The Empress's words—could it be that she voluntarily entered the cycle of reincarnation in order to take that final step?

He was filled with doubt and unease.

The final step that Houtu Niangniang mentioned should be transcending the first level and achieving the realm of a true immortal.

Legend has it that only by mastering the Tower of Babel, cultivating all three paths and transcending them simultaneously, can one possibly reach the true realm of immortals and gods.

The difficulty is immense.

Afterwards, the Earth Goddess was imprisoned in the Tower of Babel—perhaps because she had tried this path in the past but ultimately failed.

Xu Lindong's thoughts were churning. He walked to the window and looked up at the sky.

The lingering force of the storm had dissipated, but the tremor in his heart had not yet subsided.

The power of a god or a human is truly terrifying.

Although he had made some guesses before, he was never able to be truly certain.

Even with such overwhelming power and control over the nation's resources, neither the human nor the god could reach the true realm of immortals and gods.

How terrifying must the evil god deep in that sinkhole be?

If the evil god manifests in its true form, rather than descending in an incarnation, can humans and gods withstand it?

Thinking of this, he felt a pang of fear and quickly suppressed the thought.

Evil gods must be subject to limitations; otherwise, why would they need to manifest themselves in the human world?

Perhaps it is precisely because they cannot truly emerge from the world that the Federation is so frantically trying to unseal the sinkhole.

What they probably want is to break some kind of balance and bring forth the true form of the evil god.

But the gods and men of Xia would never allow such a thing to happen.

"A god-man—has he already made his move?!"

When Xu Lindong thought of this, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

This supreme being, who had not made a move for decades, now reveals its power.

Will there be any price to pay for this?

Will it shake the fragile global balance?

What he was really concerned about was whether this would affect the current stable situation of the Xia Kingdom.

But such a confrontation had already exceeded the scope of his comprehension.

Xu Lindong took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart.

Now, this is actually an opportunity.

"The power of the gods swept through, which must have alarmed the guardians within the sealed-off area... causing the defenses to weaken."

At this moment, the extraordinary energy in the air is still violently agitated, like a deep pool of water churned up by a boulder, the violent ripples not yet dissipated.

"Let's sense the situation over there together."

Xu Lindong looked at the female director beside him, whose face still showed surprise.

Then, grasping the paintbrush, expanding perception, the authority over the town's lands spread outwards like a spider web.

It quickly covered the direction of the blockade area.

Sure enough, a commotion broke out over there.

Many of the guards were startled and looked up to observe the sky.

Others jumped into vehicles and sped away from the cordoned-off area, seemingly in a hurry to check the situation.

"A good opportunity, perfect for taking advantage of the chaos."

Xu Lindong made a decisive decision and said.

"Let's go!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure sank into the ground, quickly diving towards the pyramid.

"Finally, I can leave this filthy room."

The female director gave a light snort, her figure flashed, and she followed closely behind.

The golden light waves of the god and man spanned half of Earth, and a majestic and sacred aura swept across the globe.

Countless extraordinary individuals have been alarmed and terrified by this terrifying power.

Some members of weaker extraordinary lineages were involuntarily forced to kneel down under this immense pressure, bowing and worshipping in the direction from which the power came, repeatedly shouting "God".

But this is not their god.

This is the god-man of the Xia Kingdom.

The top floor of the iconic Federal Skyscraper in San Francisco.

Owen, the Angel of Light, is immersed in the soaring power of faith that has been increasing day by day.

His power had returned, even surpassing his former strength, which convinced him that his plan to join forces with the god of shadows, Kunjiang, was the right one.

He felt as if he were nestled in the arms of the Virgin Mary, enjoying this abundant gift.

However, at this very moment...

His eyes suddenly snapped open!

A dazzling light flashed in his eyes, followed by a fleeting look of shock.

The next second, a "whoosh" sound.

His figure crashed through the French windows and soared into the sky.

A pair of bright eyes were fixed on the direction of Saint Sophia, on the terrifying golden light wave that was sweeping in.

"The God of Xia Kingdom!!"

Irving's eyes froze, his face filled with shock and disbelief.

But then, his shocked expression turned into a twisted rage, and he let out a ferocious growl: "This is not the Xia Kingdom!"

"This is the divine realm of my Federation!"

"I, Owen Jenkins, am the only god in this sky!"

A deafening explosion!

His figure instantly transformed into a streak of light, tearing through the sky and shooting straight towards Saint Sophia.

In the Xia Kingdom, all media cameras were focused on the golden streak of light that tore through the sky.

In a large studio, a renowned and sharp-tongued host, known for his iron-fisted and incisive commentary, spoke with an excited voice: "Dear viewers, we have just witnessed history! That golden streak stretching across the sky was none other than our great God! After decades, God has once again made his move!"

"Based on the reliable information we currently possess, His Majesty the God of Man's intervention this time is in response to the Federation's recent disregard for global security."

This is the most direct and powerful counterattack and intervention against the reckless and continuous forced reopening of high-risk sinkholes!

He took a deep breath, his gaze fixed intently on the camera, and declared firmly, "This is absolutely not a warning, this is direct action! His Majesty the God of Man is declaring to the world: the bottom line of the Xia Kingdom is not to be challenged! The red line for human survival is not to be trampled upon!"

"If the Federation remains obstinate and continues its dangerous actions that threaten all of humanity, it will inevitably face the iron-fisted suppression of His Majesty the God of Man! Do not say you were not warned!"

The rousing cheers, transmitted through the screen, instantly ignited the entire nation.

Throughout the streets and alleys, deafening cheers erupted in front of countless screens.

"His Majesty the God of Man has made his move!"

"It's been almost half a year since the high-risk sinkhole was reopened—we've finally waited for this moment!"

"Well done! That's the kind of tough attitude we should have!"

Passion surges in the chest of every Xia person.

Decades later, the divine has reappeared, its spearhead aimed directly at the Federation.

This is more than just a counterattack; it is a powerful declaration that has shocked the world.

Global time has entered the summer season!

Inside the headquarters, Yi Qianxun sat alone at his desk.

The phone screen was lit up, and the interface remained in Xu Lindong's chat window.

She tapped Xu Lindong's profile picture, paused for a moment, and finally turned off the screen.

She knew that "Dongzi" was currently in the Federation under the identity of "Yan Wang Tie".

This is a secret between the two of them, and it must never be revealed to anyone.

But right now—even gods and men have been alarmed, which is enough to show how serious the situation is.

Her heart clenched involuntarily.

Just how chaotic is the situation in the Federation right now?

"Dongzi," she said helplessly, putting away her phone, "resolve things over there quickly and come back soon."

"It's too chaotic outside right now—"

She exhaled softly, composed herself, and began rapidly typing on the keyboard, bringing up the intelligence interface under her own privileges. Her gaze focused as she began searching for all dynamic information related to the Federation.

At this very moment, outside the Pharaoh's pyramid, Xu Lindong and the female director had already taken advantage of the chaos to sneak into the sealed-off area.

The lingering power of the divine force in the air caused significant interference with the field monitoring here.

Taking advantage of the chaos, the two quickly traversed the underground along the well-planned route they had previously designed.

Upon entering the pyramid, a cold and dry atmosphere immediately hits you.

The passageway is intricate and complex, with mottled stone walls covered with long-lost hieroglyphic runes.

In the distance, the occasional sound of patrolling footsteps and whispers could be heard, but attention had been diverted by the commotion outside.

Without lingering, the two relied on their clear perception of the geological structure based on their land rights to quickly navigate the maze-like passages.

They had complete control over the texture of the surrounding stone, the direction of the cracks, and even the subtle changes in the airflow.

Soon, they discovered carvings resembling stone tablets on the stone walls at several forks in the road.

Xu Lindong reached out and touched each item, communicating with Houtu Niangniang inside the Tower of Babel.

The feedback received indicated that these were not what Houtu Niangniang wanted.

"Keep going, I'll find the stone tablet, you keep watch."

He whispered instructions to the female director.

The two figures disappeared into the shadows again, diving deeper into the pyramid.

The deeper they went, the more intense the extraordinary energy fluctuations in the air became.

A chilling, ancient aura, seemingly originating from a deep underground sinkhole, was subtly spreading, making one's skin feel tight.

Just then, Xu Lindong suddenly stopped.

At the end of the main passage ahead, a unique stone tablet is embedded in a huge stone wall.

Its stone is dark gray and has no carvings on its surface, yet it faintly radiates a very faint dark golden luster.

The monument appears to have grown naturally together with the surrounding stone walls.

If it weren't for the fact that land ownership is exceptionally sensitive to structure, it would be almost impossible to discern.

Just as Xu Lindong's gaze fell upon it.

Inside the Tower of Babel, the voice of the Goddess Houtu directly entered his mind: "That's it, take it with you."

Xu Lindong observed his surroundings but did not make a move immediately.

He gazed at the junction of the stone tablet and the surrounding structure, his consciousness sinking into the tower, and cautiously asked, "Your Majesty, removing this stone tablet—wouldn't that unexpectedly unseal the sinkhole here?"

This place is already within the sinkhole area.

He did not want to unseal the sinkhole.

If an unexpected disaster were to occur, resulting in the deaths of a large number of civilians in nearby towns, it would be an irreparable catastrophe.

His merits may very well be wiped out.

Even though his relationship with Houtu Niangniang is still acceptable, he must remain cautious.

If one's merits are reset to zero or even become negative, and one is imprisoned in the Tower of Babel, then everything is over.

"Won't."

The voice of the Goddess Houtu came, "This is just an ancient artifact, its power long since lost. It is related to reincarnation—I need it."

Xu Lindong carefully sensed the surroundings and repeatedly checked them.

After confirming that the stone tablet was neither the core of the pyramid's barrier nor related to the sinkhole seal, he no longer hesitated.

With a thought, the town's land began to function.

"Thud!!"

The surrounding walls trembled slightly.

The entire massive stone tablet was slowly "pulled" out of the stone wall by an invisible force.

The pyramid only trembled slightly, and then there was no further abnormality.

Xu Lindong breathed a sigh of relief; Houtu Niangniang had indeed not lied to him.

"Got it."

He sent the stone tablet directly into the Tower of Babel, intending to summon the broken car seat and quickly evacuate from there.

The female director beside him suddenly whispered, "There's something inside—it's about to crawl out."

Xu Lindong's heart skipped a beat, and he looked sharply into the huge hole left after the stone tablet was removed.

In the darkness, beneath layers of old strips of cloth, a human-shaped silhouette was slowly writhing, stiffly and stubbornly crawling outwards.

Through the gaps in the cloth strips, one could vaguely see dry, dark skin.

"Is it a mummy?"

Xu Lindong was somewhat surprised, as he had already sensed a slight disturbance in his Tower of Babel.

This proves that this mummy was a rather evil being.

Xu Lindong frowned slightly, not intending to get entangled.

He stretched out his left hand, and his entire palm instantly turned bluish-black.

A chilling, deathly aura permeated the air, transforming into the ghostly claws of a night-wandering spirit, fiercely grabbing at the mummy's arm!

However, a strong force of resistance erupted from the mummy's stiff, wooden arms, managing to withstand the suppression of the demonic claws.

"snort!"

Xu Lindong let out a cold snort, and the illusory clone of human energy within his body suddenly stretched out its thick arm, its palm overlapping with his Night Wanderer's ghost claw, the double force pressing down fiercely!

"Snap!"

The mummy's arm made a cracking sound, but it didn't break.

It seems that as the mummy's revival deepens, its struggles become stronger and stronger, almost breaking free of its restraints.

"As expected of a Sequence Eight being, even though this path ends here—"

Xu Lindong's eyes turned cold, and he no longer held back.

The power of the land's sealing off was suddenly activated!

The surrounding soil surged up as if it were alive, quickly covering the mummy.

Golden-red flames even rose from the surface of the soil, enveloping, burying, and burning the mummy layer by layer.

"Sizzle—"

The sound of flames scorching the strips of cloth and shriveled flesh rang out, and a roar seemed to come from within the cloth. The strength of the struggle quickly weakened.

With a thought, Xu Lindong seized the opportunity to bring it into the Tower of Babel.

Merit +445.

A slight thought stirred within him.

This ancient foreign artifact is almost extinct now. It could probably serve as fertilizer for the Tower of Babel, and perhaps even trigger some strange changes.

At this moment, the female director suddenly reminded them, her frivolous expression turning serious for once: "Someone's coming—it seems to be a very capable guy, he's incredibly fast."

Xu Lindong frowned, his senses rapidly spreading outwards.

A powerful aura was rapidly approaching from the direction of the entrance!

The instant he sensed it, his expression changed slightly, and he made his judgment.

This is a Sequence Six Guardian!

Moreover, the opponent's movement speed is astonishing.

In the blink of an eye, it had already covered most of the perceived distance and was rapidly approaching with a special, extraordinary ability!

At this speed, he wouldn't even have time to activate the teleportation from the broken chair before being caught up and interrupted.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Lindong's consciousness swiftly sank into the Tower of Babel.

Should we use our powerful connections and leverage our resources to take a gamble, or should we directly ask the Goddess Houtu for help?

Just as he hesitated, the goddess's calm voice came from the top of the tower: "Don't hesitate when things happen. Do what you want to do boldly. My intervention is to cover for you, not to do everything for you."

Only by personally testing one's own limits can one break free from constraints and truly grasp one's own power.

These words were like a sudden awakening, a profound enlightenment.

It instantly cleaved open certain blocked joints in Xu Lindong's heart.

He even had some realization.

Why am I still unable to grasp the essence of the Death Gate?

Why do so many extraordinary gatekeepers never manage to take that final step in their entire lives?

Perhaps it is because they always leave themselves too many escape routes, always thinking of relying on others and external things.

This mindset isn't necessarily wrong, but it often leads to missing the opportunity to reach the summit.

As for myself, I already have the Empress's support, which gives me many more opportunities to try and fail than others, so why should I be timid and afraid to try boldly?

This exchange of consciousness and enlightenment happened in the blink of an eye.

Almost the instant his thoughts were clear, a furious roar erupted from the depths of the passage!

"Invaders! How dare you!!"

"Let's give it our all!"

Xu Lindong's eyes sharpened.

"Using the gatekeeper's big lever bicycle, along with the female director, should be able to severely damage this Sequence Six—and then we can take the opportunity to escape."

There's no need to waste Your Majesty's opportunity to act this time!

With a resolute decision, his 660 points of merit were instantly burned away.

A familiar, eerie bicycle belonging to a powerful family suddenly appeared in front of him!

"It's this stuff again!"

The female director standing to the side narrowed her eyes.

She was seriously injured when she was hit by this bicycle, which led to Xu Lindong's imprisonment.

She was well aware of the power of this thing.

Almost at the same moment the bicycle appeared.

The soil in front suddenly exploded!

A powerful, extraordinary force brutally tore apart Xu Lindong's control over the land.

From the shattered and blasted earth, an incredibly strong and savage figure burst forth.

He had a full head of thick black hair tied in a braid, a human body with a scorpion tail, his entire body covered in armor, and his eyes were a ghastly blue; his appearance was extremely fierce and domineering.

call! !

Almost the instant he appeared, the steel fork in his hand whistled through the air and thrust straight at him!

Strange Path - Sequence Six - Shadow Scorpion!

This is a mythical creature route on par with Medusa, and the power of the sequence originates from the mythical creature "Scorpion-Man Mayel".

Its entire body is covered with a thick, dark carapace, and the venom in its tail is comparable to Medusa's petrifying gaze; touching it means certain death!

A powerful threat was approaching, accompanied by the whooshing sound of steel forks cutting through the air.

Without hesitation, Xu Lindong swung himself onto the large bicycle belonging to the powerful family.

"Hurry up and get on!"

He gave a low shout.

The female director had already flipped over and jumped onto the back seat of the powerful family's bicycle, instantly reaching out to hug Xu Lindong's waist and abdomen.

Xu Lindong stomped his foot hard.

The crimson evil domain beneath the vehicle suddenly unfolded, enveloping the car like a blood tide and rushing towards the Shadow Scorpion.

At the same time, he already held the mother artifact of the evil object, the "Face-Scraping Straight Knife," in his hand, emanating a chilling aura.

The shadow scorpion's venomous fork was about to strike.

Xu Lindong's eyes sharpened.

The gray-black evil domain of the mother artifact in his hand spread rapidly.

Within the evil realm, two figures simultaneously appeared: the Card Master Field, wielding a dagger and wearing shorts, and the bard Eugene, wielding a scalpel.

"Swish!!"

The three sword shadows almost merged into a single line.

It formed a streak of white blades, which crashed head-on into the poisonous fork.

Clang!

The instant of the collision.

Xu Lindong felt a chill run down his spine, and his arm felt a tearing, ferocious, and excruciating pain from the impact.

The vessel was the first to give way, and the bard Eugene's body shattered instantly.

With a low shout, the power of the three phases erupted.

A triple aura of malevolence, majesty, and holiness enveloped the blade.

The blades were almost entirely covered in gold, blue, and red.

His extraordinary power instantly surged to its limit.

"clang!!"

The clash of knives and forks unleashed a violent burst of energy, like a storm.

The surrounding stone walls shook violently and cracked, carving out several deep ravines.

Xu Lindong's arm trembled violently, his joints cracked, and he almost broke.

However, the extraordinary human aura within him forcefully held on, protecting him from most of the impact.

However, at this moment, a dark green toxin unexpectedly spread back along the blade!

"Scorpion venom!?"

His eyes narrowed, and his figure suddenly became ethereal, instantly switching into the state of a night wanderer, where most of the poison was immediately neutralized.

Just then, a cold glint flashed in Card Master Field's eyes, and he took a step forward.

"My turn!"

"Whoosh!"

A black card flew out of his hand.

The card spun in mid-air, suddenly unleashing a terrifying suction force.

The stone walls, sand, and even the pervasive poisonous fog of the surrounding passage all collapsed towards the signboard like a tide.

Even the steel fork that the Shadow Scorpion thrust out was pulled by that force and was about to be swallowed into the card and sealed away!

"Blasphemer!"

With a roar, Shadow Scorpion exerted its strength and forcefully pulled the steel fork back from the suction force, then turned around and delivered another violent stab!

The fork slammed into the black card, sending it flying violently.

Field's body exploded into a cloud of black mist and dissipated into the evil realm.

But in that instant, the female director behind Xu Lindong made her move.

She raised her hands, and the massive pyramid stones on both sides of the passage rumbled and deformed, overlapping to form a thick stone wall in front of her.

Bang! !

As the Shadow Scorpion's second fork pierced the stone wall, it shattered instantly, sending rocks flying everywhere.

However, before the gravel had completely settled, the large bicycle of the powerful clan had already torn through the dust.

The evil realm was as red as blood, and the vehicle itself became illusory as it passed through the stone wall and crashed solidly into the Shadow Scorpion!

"boom!!"

Shadow Scorpion was sent flying backward by the impact, crashing heavily into the stone wall of the passage behind it with a loud bang.

His carapace cracked repeatedly, as the powerful family's bicycle had shattered it, leaving a spiderweb-like network of fine cracks.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Lindong quickly approached on his bicycle, let out a low shout, and swung his knife again without hesitation.

The instant that slash was made.

The three blades overlapped once again.

The illusory figures of Field and Eugene re-emerged.

The blade flashed, revealing a chilling, tangible killing intent.

"You're asking for it!!"

Shadow Scorpion roared and forcefully propped up half of its body, raising its steel fork fiercely, the eerie green scorpion venom gathering into a vortex at the tip.

"One more time!!"

The extraordinary human energy phantom clone within Xu Lindong's body suddenly expanded, as if a giant spirit had risen from his body!

at the same time.

Seven points of light suddenly lit up inside his body!

Open Gate, Rest Gate, Life Gate, Injury Gate, Block Gate, View Gate, Shock Gate!

All seven gates open!

His momentum was like a volcanic eruption, rising higher and higher!

Blood surged through the veins like a river, and muscles and bones emitted explosive sounds like the roar of dragons and the howl of tigers.

Its golden-red glow complements the ancient door god patterns on the front and back.

He was like an ancient war god awakening!

This strike combined the power of seven gates, the might of a phantom, and the wrath of three phases.

cut!!

"clang!!!"

The clash of knives and forks produced a thunderous explosion, like fire clashing!

The energy surged outwards like a raging tide, causing the surrounding stone walls to crack and split open, with rubble raining down!

This strike actually matched the Shadow Scorpion's attack perfectly!

Xu Lindong's body trembled violently, and he let out a long roar, in which the power of the seven gates was pushed to its limit.

The eighth gate, the "Gate of Death," was also loosening slightly, with a wisp of destructive energy emanating from the depths of his internal organs.

The blade flashed even brighter!

"Snap!"

The steel fork snapped in two!

The fierce blade continued its relentless thrust, piercing deep into the gap in the carapace!

scoff!

A spray of dark purple blood erupted in the air!

"ah!!"

The Shadow Scorpion let out a mournful roar.

Xu Lindong, however, was already pedaling hard on his large bicycle, the crimson evil energy surging beneath the wheels, rushing towards the end of the passage, about to break through the wall and escape.

But in that very instant...

Whoosh!!

A scorpion tail, like a black lightning bolt, pierced through the stone wall, traversing a distance, and stabbed straight into his back with a sharp, piercing whistle.

Before the stinger even got close, a thick cloud of poisonous mist had already billowed out.

At the critical moment.

*Smack!*

The female director lashed out with her short whip, the tip of which clashed sharply with the scorpion's tail.

Surprisingly, this fatal blow was slightly deflected, preventing both of them from being pierced through like skewers.

scoff!

The scorpion's tail grazed the back seat and plunged into the tire.

The bicycle veered sharply to one side, the tire burst with a crack, and the crimson evil domain was torn open by this stab!

"middle!"

Xu Lindong felt a chill run down his spine.

The power of Sequence Six is ​​truly terrifying.

He used almost every trick in the book, but could only inflict minor injuries on his opponent, and even had his tires damaged in one blow!

Without any further hesitation, he sped forward on his bicycle.

At the same time, I acquired the Peach Blossom Painting Brush.

The ground in the passageway behind them rumbled and groaned.

The walls collapsed one after another.

He quickly drew doors in mid-air, creating barriers.

At the same time, the path of the passage is directly drawn into forks, as if drawing a maze.

To draw a circle on the ground and imprison oneself.

In an instant, it solidified into a labyrinth of layers of pictures!

The female director responded in kind, whipping her whip so that the ground bricks tumbled and rolled like waves.

One after another, manhole covers suddenly appeared in the various tunnels.

However, both of them could feel it.

The ground beneath our feet is being torn apart by a violent force.

The other party also possesses a certain ability to move through the land, and can even quickly eliminate interference from the land.

Even after falling into the manhole cover trap, the Shadow Scorpion instantly broke through the cover and rapidly approached.

That overwhelming aura far surpassed that of the two of them.

This level of power disparity cannot be bridged by the variability of abilities.

"go!"

Without hesitation, Xu Lindong instantly unleashed his extraordinary aura phantom clone, rushing straight to the rear to cover their retreat.

The phantom clone rapidly expanded within the passage, as if being pumped in by an invisible air pump.

With each step forward, his body swelled up, radiating a suffocating, oppressive aura.

At the same time, the giant bicycles of the gates and lords transformed into illusions, passing through several thick stone walls, and were about to burst out of the pyramid.

But Xu Lindong suddenly sensed that several powerful auras were rapidly approaching from the outside!

He stopped abruptly and waved to put away his bicycle.

At the same time, the damaged car seats were recalled.

Almost at the same moment that this series of actions was completed.

Loud boom!

A muffled, loud noise suddenly came from inside the pyramid.

The extraordinary popularity phantom clone has already exploded inside the passage.

The terrifying explosion shook the entire building, causing stones to crumble and even sending up eerie will-o'-the-wisps.

From within the will-o'-the-wisps came the furious roar of the Shadow Scorpion.

"Walk!!"

Xu Lindong's expression changed slightly. He pulled the female director along and sat down in the dilapidated car seat.

The dilapidated seat trembled slightly.

Two seconds later, the path to the underworld opened.

The two figures disappeared into the darkness and vanished in an instant.

More than ten seconds passed, and the path behind them remained completely still.

Xu Lindong's tense nerves relaxed, and he then felt intense fatigue and weakness.

But those intermediate sequences didn't catch up, which is a good result.

"It seems that among these extraordinary individuals from abroad, apart from a few who specialize in necromancy through methods like necromancy mysteries, most others are unfamiliar with this path and therefore unable to enter the Netherworld Path..."

'

"However, the Shadow Scorpion, a mythical creature of Sequence Six, is actually this powerful."

His gaze was deep and serious, and he was shocked.

He originally thought that being able to kill someone who had just entered Sequence Seven would give him the confidence to fight against Sequence Six.

Looking back now, it was incredibly naive.

"I previously made a statement to intimidate the midnight thugs—but I'm afraid what they've shown is just the tip of the iceberg."

Xu Lindong secretly reflected that he had become too arrogant lately.

Even with a Sequence 6 evil artifact like the Gatekeeper's Giant Bicycle in his hand, he could at most force the opponent back and cause minor injuries.

However, the cost is that the risks borne by oneself are too great.

Ultimately, his current foundation is still too shallow.

However, he did have the Empress's protection and the life-saving badge given to him by the Chief of Staff, so this fierce battle was not a mindless recklessness and still had value.

At least the formidable barrier between them and Sequence Six has been weighed.

More importantly, he had already vaguely grasped the meaning of the Death Gate.

At this moment, the Shu Gate and Du Gate within his body remained open.

Life flowed back, and the injuries on his body healed rapidly.

Du Men then guarded his body, keeping the few remaining strands of the soul-corroding poison out, allowing it to gradually dissipate.

Ahead, a faint light was gradually emerging at the end of the darkness.

Xu Lindong suddenly felt something soft and wet on his body.

Looking down, he saw the female director was up to her old tricks again, taking the opportunity to rub against his chest and take advantage of him.

His face darkened, and he said coldly, "Thanks for earlier."

"You rascal, is this how you thank someone?"

The female director raised her red lips slightly, and a seductive look appeared in her eyes as she was about to speak.

Xu Lindong, however, had a sudden thought and without hesitation put her back into the Tower of Babel.

While I am grateful, he has already done his duty and there is no need to give him any more pleasantries, lest this woman become too pleased with herself.

Suddenly, the entire Tongyou Road trembled violently!

From the surrounding darkness, the howls of countless evil creatures gradually rose and fell, and the yin energy surged like a tidal wave.

Further away, several terrifying and powerful auras suddenly awakened, their overwhelming pressure crushing through the darkness as if it were a tangible force. Each one was no less powerful than the Shadow Scorpion of Sequence Six from before.

"What's going on?!"

Xu Lindong felt a chill and immediately put the Peach Blossom Painting Brush, his weapon for showing off, into the Tower of Babel.

He then grasped the Netherworld Ghost Token, indicating that he was one of their own.

The darkness around the seat quickly distorted and blurred.

Those powerful, awakened auras swept over him, neither approaching nor retreating, as if in silent confrontation.

Xu Lindong held his breath, his expression shifting.

All they could feel was the extraordinary energy within the Tongyou Road surging wildly, like an ink pool being stirred up by an invisible giant hand.

This is absolutely unusual!

"Could it be that—a battle between top-tier experts in the mortal realm has had its aftershocks directly shake the underworld?"

He suddenly remembered the golden light that had just swept across the sky, and his heart skipped a beat: "It was a god—who has He already started fighting?"
