Martial Master

Hearing Qin Chen's surprise at the mention of a shadow, he felt a stir in his heart: "This person..."

"Alright, everyone, enough of the nonsense. I, the Underworld Lord, will say just one thing."

Qin Chen looked at the crowd: "We do not yet know what lies within that space. If we encounter a crisis, I hope everyone can unite and work together to resolve it."

Qin Chen's expression was serious.

"Rest assured, Brother Underworld Lord."

"With Brother Underworld Lord here, we will certainly follow your orders."

"Indeed, based on Brother Underworld Lord's previous actions, we are all convinced."

The crowd immediately cupped their hands and spoke.

Qin Chen's previous actions had fully convinced everyone.

At least, in the absence of any conflicting interests, they were willing to obey Qin Chen's commands.

"If that's the case, then let's go."

Qin Chen didn't waste any more words; he leaped forward and directly dove into the entrance, being the first to enter the spatial passage.

With a buzzing sound, an invisible spatial wave enveloped Qin Chen, and the next moment, everyone saw his figure suddenly shrink as he delved deeper into the passage, disappearing in an instant.

"Go!"

The crowd hurriedly followed.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

In an instant, countless streams of light arose, rushing into the passage. The combined entrance of so many masters of forbidden zones created a shocking wave, causing the mystic pattern seals around the Octagonal Hall to tremble violently, with countless array flags appearing, as if they might explode at any moment.

"Let’s go! If we don’t hurry, those array flags might explode," Kāluó Underworld Ancestor said, glancing at the array flags with a slight cold smile. "This person’s array skills are indeed formidable. If back then..."

He didn’t continue speaking, instead taking a step into the passage.

With the last person entering, the array flags set by Qin Chen could no longer withstand the intense restrictions and erupted with a loud bang.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Array flags shattered one after another, and in the end, the mystic pattern seals on the Stone Platform reformed, sealing this place thoroughly, as if no one had ever come here.

Inside the passage.

Qin Chen's spiritual sense frantically spread out, trying to perceive the surrounding spatial passage. However, the spatial power here was too terrifying; the moment his spiritual sense extended out, it shattered into pieces, leaving him unable to glimpse even a shred.

But similarly, Qin Chen sensed that the spatial power of this passage was strikingly close to the power of the heart of space he had obtained in the hall of the ghost king, even stemming from the same lineage.

This was also one of the reasons he had been able to so easily open the mystic pattern seal earlier.

He didn’t know how long it took.

Boom!

The spatial power enveloping Qin Chen suddenly dissipated.

He flew out of the passage, tumbling down, and then flipped in the air, lightly landing on the ground like a feather.

"What is this…"

Qin Chen looked around.

This was a mysterious and vast hall, with countless wandering mystic patterns above. Each mystic pattern was profound, containing immense divine light.

These mystic patterns gave Qin Chen the feeling that they were similar to the mysterious totem once displayed by the Ancient Emperor Senior, extremely obscure and intricate—definitely divine patterns surpassing transcendence.

In the center of this hall, there was actually a gigantic mystic pattern seal, floating in the middle of the hall, within which was a graceful figure.

"That is..."

Qin Chen gasped sharply.

This was an extraordinarily towering figure, with a long serpentine body curled beneath her, while her upper body resembled that of a human. The clothing on her upper body was scant, with a scaled-like breastplate vaguely wrapping around her two towering peaks.

Following his gaze upward, her skin was incredibly pale, like congealed fat. Furthermore, she had a pure yet infinitely charming face, with crimson lips like fresh morning cherries, making it impossible for one to suppress the impulse to bite them.
