Chapter 174: Wild Beast in the Cave


Returning to the ruins of the Netherworld Dark Clan again, Duan Gujin made use of the Divine Sense Detection Ability of the Evil Eye, determined to find useful clues at all costs.

He and Lie Lei carefully searched the entire ruins inside and out, yet, apart from a field of ruins, they found no other clues.

"Why are there no clues?"

Looking at the ruins around him, Duan Gujin suddenly felt an unusual sensation flash through his mind, and he quickly sat down cross-legged on the ground, releasing his Divine Sense.

"What's wrong?" Lie Lei asked.

"Don't you feel that there's an indescribable eeriness about this place?"

Duan Gujin said.

"Eeriness?! I didn't sense anything odd here."

Seeing Duan Gujin sitting cross-legged, Lie Lei also sat down and extended his Divine Sense to see if he could detect the oddness that Duan Gujin was referring to.

Duan Gujin's Divine Sense spread out, sketching an image in his mind.

After a while, he had a sudden realization.

"I know what's going on now!"

Duan Gujin immediately told Lie Lei, asking him to search the vicinity, using the ruins as the center.

"Okay!"

Though Lie Lei didn't sense the eeriness, he knew that Duan Gujin wouldn't suddenly become so tense without reason.

He believed Duan Gujin must have his reasons for being so tense, that Duan Gujin wouldn't have him search around for no reason.

Thus, they split up and dispersed in different directions from the ruins as the center.

Duan Gujin moved forward while extending his Divine Sense.

"I had the feeling that the Jialuo Demon King's strength was too weak! Now I recall, that ruin was not the real Sealed Land! The Netherworld Dark Clan is a very special species; they can split themselves into several parts and also fuse parts of their bodies into the bodies of other species!"

Duan Gujin thought it was highly possible that the ruin he encountered before was merely a body occupied by the Jialuo Demon King. To annihilate the Jialuo Demon King, people of the past had sealed the body he occupied.

And there might be several bodies occupied by Jialuo Demon King, or perhaps his True Body is hidden within one of them.

To annihilate the Jialuo Demon King is difficult!

Even High-level Martial Artists from other continents could only seal Jialuo Demon King with the power of treasures.

To completely annihilate Jialuo Demon King, one can only rely on the power of sunlight, slowly weakening Jialuo Demon King's strength.

Duan Gujin knew little about the Sealing Array in this place; he could only rely on memories from the past and then make some speculations.

After entering the ruins before, he felt as if he had overlooked many things within.

An hour later, his Divine Sense sensed an aura similar to that of the ruins emanating from a mountain ahead.

His mind stirred, and his body transformed into a streak of light as he rapidly rushed forward.

After nearing the mountain, he confirmed that the aura emitted from this mountain was the same as the one he sensed in the ruins before.

"Indeed! It was overlooked by me before!"

Duan Gujin pieced everything together, now realizing that he had previously neglected too much important evidence, which led to significant problems.

He thought to himself that it might have been his carelessness that inadvertently changed some seemingly insignificant things.

In his heart, he believed that the history he changed might not modify the overall course of history.

But now he realized that he was completely wrong!

Duan Gujin sensed that the Death Energy emitted from the mountain was even stronger than that from the ruins; he quickly swallowed some Elixir Pills to restore some Primordial Power.

After a while, he took out a signal flare from his storage ring and triggered it.

He didn't know whether Lie Lei could see the signal flare he released; if he could, that would be ideal.

If not, he decided to personally explore the mountain.

Although Lie Lei was more powerful than him, Lie Lei's Divine Sense Inspection wasn't strong.

Furthermore, Duan Gujin could use the Evil Eye here, and the distance his Divine Sense could reach was even farther than Lie Lei's.

If he couldn't sense the hidden enemies inside the mountain, neither could Lie Lei.

Therefore, Duan Gujin knew that he could not pin his hopes on Lie Lei.

He waited for roughly an hour, and finally, Lie Lei arrived.

"Let's set out together!"

Lie Lei sensed the environment nearby and realized it was similar to the ruins they had encountered before; he knew then that Duan Gujin had found another site.

"It seems we really overlooked this before! No wonder the people from the Netherworld Sect were unguarded at that site!"

Lie Lei said.

"Let's go in!"

Thus, Duan Gujin and Lie Lei entered the mountain together.

They took a round inside the mountain, and very soon, Duan Gujin discovered a cave entrance.

He checked the cave entrance and found signs of recent activity.

He and Lie Lei proceeded about a hundred meters into the cave and sensed that the aura surrounding them was even stronger than at the previous ruins.

"It seems that the Netherworld Dark Clan ruins I destroyed last time were not the real ones! We're in big trouble this time!"

Duan Gujin gasped in shock.

After a while, he increasingly sensed the underground aura growing stronger.

At this moment, he and Lie Lei felt as if a very terrifying enemy might be lurking within the cave, hidden in the dark, ready to pounce at any moment.

Once it emerged, they could not imagine the destruction it would cause.

"Duan Gujin, be careful!"

Although Lie Lei did not sense any enemies nearby, for some reason, his heart started pounding violently; he had a premonition that the enemy was lurking in the depths of the cave ahead.

Worried that Duan Gujin might encounter danger, he remained close to protect him.

After all, Duan Gujin's Cultivation was far below his own.

In fact, Lie Lei was unaware that with the use of the Evil Eye, Duan Gujin's Divine Sense Detection Ability reached much further than Lie Lei's.

If an enemy really were to appear ahead, Duan Gujin would spot it first.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, they heard a roar like that of a wild beast coming from the cave ahead.

Duan Gujin and Lie Lei immediately became alert, looking around with tense expressions.

"Boom!"

The next moment, they heard a thunderous noise and a series of rapid footsteps coming from the cave ahead.

They quickly judged it was very likely that a beast inside the cave had discovered them and was now charging towards them.

"Retreat!"

Without any hesitation, Duan Gujin knew that the Demon Beast now appearing in the cave was definitely not weak.

Their bodies swiftly retreated; they did not wish to fight the beast in the cramped cave, knowing they couldn't fully utilize their skills there.

Besides, they both knew that beasts living in dark caves like these are likely averse to sunlight.

If they could manage to rush outside, they would be able to weaken the beast's Combat Power to some extent.

To what extent they could weaken the beast's Combat Power depended on their luck.

Bang bang bang bang!

They could distinctly hear the body of the beast inside the cave smashing against the stone walls on both sides; they could imagine the terrifying speed at which the beast was running.

They dared not slacken their pace, knowing the beast's power must be truly fearsome.

Moreover, as the beast drew closer to them, its imposing presence surprisingly kept escalating, which baffled both Duan Gujin and Lie Lei.
