Her aura suddenly fluctuated violently, and she seemed unable to suppress her previous injuries.
Qin Chen's expression changed slightly. "Sisi, what's wrong?"
Boom!
Qin Chen raised his hand, and an invisible spatial power surged, quickly suppressing Sisi's aura.
"I'm fine."
Sisi looked at the spatial passage before her and said with confusion, "This place feels somewhat familiar."
"Familiar?" Qin Chen frowned.
This location was in the abandoned area of the Underworld; how could Sisi feel familiar with it?
"I don't know, but in my memory, I seem to have seen a place like this. No, it's not in my memory; it should be from an ancient memory preserved in my mind. There are images like this."
"Ancient memory?"
Qin Chen furrowed his brow as he looked at Sisi. "Could it be the memory of the Empress of the Dark Moon? But you, as her successor, should not have memories of this abandoned area. The Emperor of the Underworld once said that even an emperor-level expert could not enter this abandoned land. The only emperor who had ever entered this realm was the Emperor of Beginning Charm. This means the Empress of the Dark Moon never entered this abandoned area. How could you have such a memory?"
Qin Chen was puzzled.
From any perspective, even from that of the Empress of the Dark Moon, Sisi shouldn't be familiar with this place.
"This... I don't know." Sisi looked around. "But this feeling must be correct."
"Feeling?"
"It's this realm and the spatial passage. I feel like I've seen them before at some point, and this seems to relate to a certain secret."
As she said this, Sisi suddenly clutched her head, revealing a look of pain. She let out a muffled groan, her face growing even paler, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth.
Qin Chen's expression changed, and he quickly raised his hand. With a loud explosion, the group swiftly disappeared, returning to the Chaotic World.
At the foot of the Myriad Realms Demon Tree, Sisi returned to this place, and her expression finally returned to normal.
"Where have I seen this before?" Sisi said painfully.
"Sisi, if you can't think of it, don't force it." Qin Chen said urgently.
Qianxue and the others also hurriedly came forward to comfort her.
"No, I have a feeling. If I can remember, it may concern whether we can leave this abandoned area." Sisi said anxiously.
"Don't worry." Qin Chen gently embraced Sisi. "Even if you can't remember, I can still take you all away, I promise."
Qin Chen spoke softly.
In the days that followed, Qin Chen consolidated his cultivation while integrating new powerful beings from the abandoned area.
There were many ghost cultivators in the abandoned area. Qin Chen sent out the underlings of the Hall of the Ghost King and the Mysterious Ghost Old Demon to search for practitioners of the path of the Underworld's rules, aiming to perfect the rules in the Chaotic World.
Now, Qin Chen's cultivation wasn't sufficient; even a slight improvement would be beneficial for his future departure from the abandoned area. He would not slack off in the slightest.
At the same time, Qin Chen often visited the spot where the spatial passage beneath the demon king's pool had disappeared, continuously researching and pondering.
Sisi mentioned that this place might relate to the secret of leaving the abandoned area. Although Qin Chen didn't understand why Sisi had this thought, he instinctively trusted her words to some extent.
However, despite Qin Chen's investigations and research, aside from the similarity to the Dead Sea Spring Eye, he had not made any significant discoveries.
In the blink of an eye, nearly a month had passed.
The rules of the Underworld that had merged into the Chaotic World had surpassed forty thousand, and Qin Chen had fully integrated his own rules.
Boom!
Within Qin Chen's body, astonishing auras surged, and within his domain, faint traces of deathly energy flowed.
This was the domain of the Master of the Graveyard of the God of Death. In this month, Qin Chen had comprehended the domain energies of the Master of the Graveyard and the others. Although Qin Chen was not yet a transcendent level expert of the third layer, his control over the domain had far surpassed many at the third layer of transcendence.
