Immortal Life: Starting with Daily Last Words

At the entrance to the cave, Yu Daoxuan and his group did not rush in recklessly, but carefully examined the terrain of the cave.

The cave was dark and gloomy, with a chilling wind blowing through it, creating an eerie atmosphere that made people uneasy.

"Senior Brother Cui, shall we go in?"

The fellow disciple surnamed Yu frowned and asked in a low voice.

"Those two, Yu Haizi and his companion, must still possess the treasures left behind by the Bitter Bamboo Hermit. We cannot let them go."

A hint of greed flashed in Cui Chengze's eyes as he took the lead and headed towards the cave.

Yu Daoxuan and the others followed closely behind.

The cave passage was extremely narrow, allowing only one person to pass at a time. Moreover, the cave walls were stained with a strange, bloody sheen, sending chills down one's spine.

The deeper one goes, the more pronounced the bloody and chilling atmosphere becomes in the cave. The rock walls on both sides turn completely crimson, and the entire cave is permeated with a dense, malevolent aura of corpses.

Before long, Yu Daoxuan and his group saw five paths branching off ahead.

"There are footprints in the middle passage, so Yu Haizi and the other person must have escaped into it."

Cui Chengze observed for a moment and then said.

Everyone nodded in agreement and walked straight towards the central passage.

The deeper one goes into the tunnel, the stronger the stench of blood and malevolence becomes, making it hard to breathe.

Cui Chengze and his men were on edge, their eyes scanning the surroundings warily, not daring to relax for a moment.

Before long, we arrived at the end of the passageway.

Before them appeared a blood-red cliff, below which lay a deep red pool of blood, several meters long and wide.

The blood pool reeked of a foul stench, and a huge snake-headed demon corpse lay silently within it, surrounded by countless monster skeletons, exuding a chilling aura.

"Guardian...they've broken in!"

Yu Haizi and Yu Jizi stood at the edge of the blood pool and saw Yu Daoxuan and his group chasing after them, and they cried out in surprise.

Guardian of the Dharma?

There's actually a third person lurking here?

Aside from Yu Daoxuan, who had anticipated this, the other five felt a sinking feeling in their hearts at the same time.

Following the horrified gazes of the two, all six people's eyes locked onto the snake-headed demon corpse in the pool.

"The demon cultivators of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect!"

The six were then horrified to discover that the snake-headed demon corpse in the pool was not a dead body at all, but a demon cultivator.

Only demon cultivators from the Ten Thousand Demons Sect could transform into such bizarre demons.

"Glug! Glug!"

Without warning, the blood pool gurgled and rippled.

Yu Daoxuan and the others tensed up immediately and went on high alert.

In the next instant, a terrifying aura that terrified the soul suddenly spread out from the blood pool, and the invisible and intangible divine soul pressure crushed the entire scene, so heavy that it suffocated people's souls.

"thump!"

The fellow disciple surnamed Yu and another female disciple, whose cultivation levels were the lowest, could not withstand the terrifying pressure on their souls, and their legs went weak, causing them to kneel on the ground.

Yu Daoxuan, however, was unharmed. The Divine Pearl within his body rippled slightly, steadily withstanding the terrifying pressure.

"You audacious brats, how dare you disturb my peaceful cultivation! Today I will feast on your flesh and blood to help me regain my strength."

The eerie, chilling noises echoed through the cave, making one's eardrums vibrate.

As the demonic corpse slowly rose, it unleashed a terrifying aura comparable to that of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Cui Chengze and the others felt stiff and cold all over, fear engulfing them, and they didn't even dare to think of using their magical artifacts to resist.

Only Yu Daoxuan remained fearless, having already known the other party's background.

The snake-headed demon corpse slowly rose from the blood pool, as if the dead had come back to life, and its terrifying pressure continued to roll over everyone.

boom!

The entire blood-red cave trembled violently, with rocks falling from the rock walls, as if the entire mountain was about to collapse and overturn under this evil and powerful force.

Cui Chengze's face turned deathly pale, his body stiffened, and he was completely consumed by fear.

"Sir, have mercy!"

Extreme fear crushed all his backbone.

Cui Chengze was mentally broken and suddenly knelt down with a thud, bowing his head and begging for mercy.

"Cui Chengze, you are actually afraid of death and have submitted to the remnants of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect."

The four fellow disciples surnamed Yu felt ashamed and disheartened.

When the leader immediately knelt and surrendered, the team's cohesion collapsed instantly.

Despite the crowd's angry rebukes, Cui Chengze ignored them and only kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Always stand on the side of the strong; this is the only way for Cui Chengze to establish himself in the world of cultivation.

The demon cultivator before them possessed overwhelming power, at least at the Foundation Establishment stage, and could annihilate them all with a mere wave of his hand.

Surrender and beg for mercy is the only way to survive.

"Hehehe, my lord is the protector of the Blood Refining Hall of the Seventy-Two Halls of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect. If you surrender quickly, you may still have a chance to live."

Yu Haizi, standing to the side, wore a smug and menacing expression, and threatened him fiercely.

"Your subordinate Cui Chengze pays respects to Your Excellency, the Protector. I am willing to submit to Your Excellency and serve you with utmost loyalty."

Cui Chengze pressed his head to the ground, displaying utmost deference.

The remaining people were all shocked. If the snake-headed demon corpse in front of them was a protector of the Blood Refining Hall of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, it would at least have the cultivation level of Foundation Establishment.

The group of fellow disciples surnamed Yu exchanged glances, their eyes filled with fear, completely losing their composure.

Only Yu Daoxuan, having glimpsed the golden tablet's last words beforehand, remained calm and composed, having anticipated this.

He strode forward to his fellow disciple surnamed Yu, unleashing his own aura to resist the divine pressure of the snake-headed demon corpse.

A hint of gratitude flashed in the eyes of the fellow disciple surnamed Yu and the female disciple, and they gritted their teeth to prop themselves up.

Although the remaining few were still overwhelmed by the power of the demon corpse, they managed to stand firm and regain some of their fighting strength.

Only the team leader, Cui Chengze, remained prostrate on the ground, not daring to raise his head.

"Why don't you submit immediately? Are you really tired of living?"

When Yu Haizi saw that the group had forcibly gotten up, he was filled with shock and anger and shouted angrily.

"snort."

The snake-headed demon corpse let out a cold snort, and the temperature in the cave dropped sharply, causing everyone's hearts to tighten again.

"I happen to be short of a few demon servants to command. Of the six of you, two can survive."

A cold, deep voice echoed through the cave, carrying an undeniable domineering authority.

The expressions of the six people changed simultaneously.

Especially Cui Chengze, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly had a fierce killing intent flash in his eyes. He secretly activated his magic power and had already considered sacrificing others to save himself.

Yu Daoxuan then said coldly, "Senior Brother Cui, even if you take this opportunity to eliminate us, you'll only be dying a moment later. Do you really think you can escape alive?"

Cui Chengze, who was kneeling, suddenly stiffened, whether because Yu Daoxuan had seen through his motives or because his mind wavered.

"That's right, this demon is deliberately trying to sow discord among us. Don't fall for his trick."

The female disciple immediately realized what was happening and loudly reminded everyone.

Faced with a life-or-death crisis, everyone panicked and lost their composure, but Yu Daoxuan remained calm and unaffected by the demon corpse's words.

"How dare a mere junior presume to guess my intentions?"

"It seems you are determined to die. I will then slaughter you all."

The snake-headed demon's voice grew increasingly cold, and an overwhelming killing intent enveloped the entire area, leaving no doubt that he would annihilate everyone with a single move.

Cui Chengze's wavering heart sank completely. He thought that there was still a glimmer of hope in surrendering, but if he resisted, he would only face certain death.

"Since the Dharma Protector possesses such immense power, he could capture and annihilate us with a mere wave of his hand. Why waste words trying to persuade us to surrender?"

Yu Daoxuan cut to the chase and coldly retorted.
