The atmosphere was tense, and a fight was about to break out between the two sides, but fortunately it was stopped by someone.

It was a fierce tiger, imposing and tall, its skin shimmering with a crystalline glow, its muscles coiled like dragons, incredibly terrifying.

The moment it appeared, the wild boar king immediately quieted down, completely losing its previous arrogance.

The Tiger King strode forward, its feet piercing the bones beneath its feet, and its body was over three meters tall.

Its eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion, casting Gu Yuan into its shadow. It spoke calmly and arrogantly, "Boy, I heard you once killed a tiger king in Qin Chuan. After this matter is over, I'll come and test your strength."

Its sound boomed, carrying endless killing intent, and the surrounding air trembled.

"Okay, pork chops with tiger penis are just to my liking."

Faced with threats, Gu Yuan remained calm and composed without any fear.

Upon hearing this, the other beast kings all changed their expressions; this was a blatant provocation.

But the Tiger King didn't say much. His face was terribly gloomy as he retreated, showing great patience.

Xu Tian, ​​the head of the Shu Mountain sect, glanced at Gu Yuan and smiled calmly. He didn't say anything more and followed her.

"Brother Niu, you're really ruthless!"

The old man from Bodhi Gene gasped in astonishment. The former's audacity was simply boundless; he actually dared to provoke so many powerful figures at the same time.

He had made up his mind not to go in again; being with such a person... he was afraid there would be bloodshed every day.

Gu Yuan shrugged and followed the old celestial master. Now was not the time to cause trouble; the important thing was to work together to enter the main hall.

With so many beast kings gathered together, there must be something extraordinary among them, so he naturally wouldn't miss it. Besides, he really wanted to eat pork chops and tiger penis.

Including Gu Yuan and the old Taoist, twelve kings, all of whom are the "ceiling" of Earth, have gathered outside the main hall.

At the same time, everyone stepped forward and unleashed their most powerful attack, slamming it into the massive beast's mouth protruding from the gate.

"Boom!"

It looked like an earthquake had struck; the ground was shaking violently, and the withered bones scattered on the ground had turned to dust, leaving behind terrifying ravines.

The ancient gate sounded like a giant drum being struck, producing a terrifying roar that echoed through the mountains before finally subsiding.

When the smoke and dust cleared, the gate remained completely still, without even a crack appearing.

The kings were surprised and launched another fierce attack.

when!

when!

A deafening clanging sound, like the hammering of iron, rang out. Fortunately, the door finally responded, opening a crack, allowing wisps of dark light to seep out, creating a chilling and eerie atmosphere.

The kings looked at each other, none of them daring to make a move.

In the end, the old Taoist priest was the first to step forward and strode inside.

As soon as one person moved, the others filed in.

Gu Yuan then climbed the steps, and the moment he stepped into the main hall, a biting cold hit him, as if he had entered an ice cellar.

The hall was pitch black and empty, with only the echoes of footsteps. It was deathly silent and reeked of a foul stench; you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

Gu Yuan relied on his powerful divine sense to explore forward. The void gate and Thor's hammer were always ready. This place gave him a creepy feeling; it was very strange.

After walking for a long time, a stone gate blocked their way.

"boom!"

No one knows who pushed it away first, but everyone followed suit without realizing it.

Inside was a very spacious hall, with crystals that emitted a faint green light embedded in the surrounding walls and stone pillars, providing just enough illumination.

It only made the place eerily dark, as if one had entered hell, making it exceptionally strange.

"what!"

From the shadows came the beast king's mournful howl, as if it had encountered something terrifying. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and gasped, their scalps tingling.

On both sides of the main hall, there were more than a dozen mummified corpses, their dried flesh clinging tightly to their thin bones. Their facial features were twisted beyond recognition, as if they had been violently dismantled, making them look extremely ferocious, as if they had truly stepped into hell.

"Thump thump."

In complete silence, I could clearly hear my own heartbeat.

Even Gu Yuan felt a chill run down his spine. Relying on his senses, he approached Xu Tian, ​​the leader of the Shu Mountain Sect, and spoke in a very low voice, "Senior... have we stumbled into the Underworld? This place looks so much like... the legendary..."

"Are you suggesting this is the Netherworld Hell of the Taishan deity... the Eastern Peak Emperor?"

The old Taoist's voice came through, and although his face was not visible, one could sense that his emotions were also in turmoil.

"The Temple of the Prefectural Lord... Besides the Great Emperor of the Eastern Peak, who else can be called a 'Lord'?"

Gu Yuan whispered to himself, already contemplating summoning a portal to leave this place, for it was utterly malevolent.

"I hope not. Fortunately, all the ancient corpses here are dead... It would be terrifying if they were alive."

The old Taoist priest offered words of comfort, though it was unclear whether he was speaking to Gu Yuan or to himself.

Most of the beast kings felt the same way. Some even considered giving up, but when they returned by the same route, they were shocked to find that the path had disappeared!

The path we came from has vanished without a trace, becoming a wall.

"Take me away...I will grant you eternal life...Take me...away...eternal life."

Just then, an old and hoarse voice rang out in the hall, as if from the netherworld. The kings were so startled that they jumped up and looked at each other in disbelief.

"Who's speaking?!"

A beast king roared, trying to embolden himself, but his voice seemed to be imprisoned and couldn't travel.

The old, hoarse voice continued, echoing endlessly and shaking the soul.

Many beast kings, unable to bear the oppressive atmosphere, lost their minds and began attacking indiscriminately.

Chaos erupted inside the hall, with various explosions and constant energy fluctuations that were particularly jarring in the enclosed space.

Gu Yuan led the old Taoist priest to a corner, cautiously observing their surroundings. At this moment, his powerful divine sense was playing an absolute role, allowing him to clearly capture everything.

"Senior, you're saying that the dried corpses in the main hall, like these, also killed each other and eventually perished here?"

"Possibly."

The old Taoist priest whispered.

The battle grew increasingly fierce, with cries and screams filling the air. Casualties had already occurred, and the pungent smell of blood permeated the nostrils.

"roar!"

Just then, a deep tiger roar resounded, shaking all evil spirits and restoring the senses of the beast kings.

"As expected of the Mountain Lord, supremely masculine and powerful!"

Gu Yuan commented in a low voice, but this was something he didn't want to see. He and the beasts would eventually have a battle, and he would naturally be happy to see them fighting amongst themselves, but it was impossible for things to continue now.

"Where are that wretched brat and that old Taoist priest?"

Finally, one of the beast kings noticed that Gu Yuan and the other had disappeared and became alert.

"They must have been behind this, making us fight amongst ourselves! How despicable!"

"Find them and skin them alive!"

For a moment, shouts and curses filled the air.

"What the hell..."

Gu Yuan was speechless. He hadn't done anything wrong, yet he was being unfairly blamed.

He didn't see the old Taoist's face... it was already green to the point of being purple. If he didn't have good self-control, he probably would have already started cursing. But in his heart, he thought to himself, "What the hell does this have to do with me? I just met him..."

Just as the beast kings were about to take action, that shrill voice rang out again, "You...stop arguing, take me...out first, and I will grant you eternal life."

There was a hint of resentment in his words.

"Who are you?"

A beast king asked a question.

"I am the Great Emperor of the Eastern Peak!"

Why are you here?

"This is my cave dwelling."

"What do you want us to do?"

"Take me out..."

"Where are you taking it?"

"You talk too much..."

The aged voice abruptly stopped, sounding both angry and powerless.

Finally, it rang out again, "As a gift for you bringing me out, I'll tell you where that human kid is hiding."

Gu Yuan: "You bastard... which side are you from?"

The old Taoist priest said, "Luckily they didn't mention me. I'm outta here..."

"Oh, by the way, I'll also tell you the location of that old Taoist priest with the bull's nose."

The aged voice rang out again, causing the old Taoist priest to tremble. He could no longer contain himself and roared, "Great Emperor, I've burned countless paper money for you... You truly deserve to die!"

After receiving the guidance, the beast kings seemed to be injected with chicken blood and headed towards the hiding place of Gu Yuan and his companion.
