Duan Gujin quickly sensed that the void ahead was filled with countless Ghost Soldiers, whose bodies emitted a yin cold aura that made their hair stand on end.

At this moment, Shi Potian hastily arranged an Array on the ground.

Moments later, the Array began to take effect.

Duan Gujin and the others took refuge inside the Array, concealing their Life Aura.

Waves of intense yin energy rose around them, but the Array protected Duan Gujin and the others, keeping the Ghost Soldiers at bay.

Only after the surrounding Yin Cold Aura had dissipated did they let out a sigh of relief.

"Let's continue moving forward!"

Shi Potian instructed Duan Gujin and Tie Yi to proceed.

After a while, they saw a huge cave suddenly appear in the void ahead, from which bursts of foul odor erupted.

"It's up ahead!"

Duan Gujin's sense of the terrifying aura intensified as he extended his Divine Sense to confirm that a Netherworld Dark Clan Demon King with Cultivation at the Ninth Level Martial Emperor was in the cave ahead.

He speculated that the Netherworld Dark Clan Demon King could be the Emperor Master Demon King.

On the way, he noticed some torn clothes; his Divine Sense Inspection revealed that the clothes were relatively new, prompting him to sigh.

Suddenly, he sensed a figure moving in the cave ahead, and he promptly instructed the others to stop and carefully observe the situation.

After a moment, he saw a member of the Netherworld Dark Clan emerge from the cave.

It was a Netherworld Dark Clan member whose pitch-black body and blood-red eerie eyes made them appear terrifying in the darkness.

"Everyone, be careful!" Shi Potian conveyed secretly.

The next moment, a deep voice came from within.

"Since all of you are here, why bother hiding?"

The group's faces changed dramatically, and they looked in the direction from which the voice came.

Soon after, they saw a Human Warrior following behind the Netherworld Dark Clan member.

Duan Gujin's Divine Sense locked onto the Human Warrior and quickly realized that the Human Warrior's Body had been possessed by the Netherworld Dark Clan's Demon King.

"Damn! I didn't expect there to be an ambush here!"

Shi Potian sighed.

Duan Gujin instantly criticized inwardly, thinking that Shi Potian was unreliable!

"It seems this Demon King's abilities far exceed my expectations."

Shi Potian said somberly.

"I'll deal with the zombie that's been possessed! The rest of you go fight that Netherworld Dark Clan member!"

Shi Potian said.

By 'zombie,' he referred to the Human Warrior controlled by the Emperor Master Demon King.

Duan Gujin immediately called Tie Yi to join him in rushing towards the Netherworld Dark Clan member ahead. His Divine Sense extended to discover that the Netherworld Dark Clan's cultivation was only at the Martial Emperor First Level.

Although he was two Great Realms below the opponent, with the Eighth Level Martial Emperor Tie Yi by his side, he believed Tie Yi's strength could completely crush the Netherworld Dark Clan member.

With a thought, Duan Gujin felt that the task Shi Potian had given him was very easy, while Shi Potian's task of containing the zombie possessed by the Emperor Master Demon King seemed very challenging.

"Maybe I should have Tie Yi assist him later!"

Duan Gujin felt that after Tie Yi had eliminated the Netherworld Dark Clan member, he should send Tie Yi to rescue Shi Potian.

However, in just a moment, he suddenly sensed nine additional auras from the Netherworld Dark Clan member in front.

Upon closer inspection, he saw ten skeletons standing behind the Netherworld Dark Clan member, each suddenly emitting an extremely yin cold aura.

Seeing those ten skeletons, Duan Gujin's mind was overwhelmed with curses; the skeletons all had strength within the Martial Emperor Realm.

"F**k!"

He suddenly remembered the odd look Shi Potian had given him earlier and realized he had been duped!

The enemy was far too superior in both numbers and strength.

Duan Gujin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and after stopping, he let Tie Yi go ahead to test the strength of that Netherworld Dark Clan member and those ten skeletons.

"Boom!"

A violent explosion erupted in the void.

Duan Gujin saw that those ten Martial Emperor realm skeletons actually blocked Tie Yi's attack, his complexion changed drastically, and after a closer look, he realized that those ten skeletons had formed a sturdy Defensive Magic Array.

Cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead; he could only say his previous Divine Sense Inspection was too weak, and he simply couldn't make out if there were indeed those ten skeletons ahead.

He believed that Shi Potian, with his strength at the Third Level of Martial Emperor, must have seen it, but he did not warn him.

"Duan Gujin, those are just ten skeletons. Although they are somewhat strong, as long as your companion doesn't fall, you can still hold on! You must not let your companion die! You need to keep encouraging her!"

Just then, the voice of Shi Potian annoyingly reached him.

He had been duped!

Duan Gujin immediately realized that Shi Potian must have seen those ten skeletons behind the Netherworld Dark Clan member.

"Those skeletons should fear lightning!"

With a thought, Duan Gujin hurriedly pulled out some Thunderfire Stones from his storage ring.

He had used quite a few Thunderfire Stones in the previous battle, and now he only had those he found later from other parts of the Xingyu Clan.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

He threw those Thunderfire Stones at the ten skeletons and then detonated them.

Boom! A loud noise came, and the Thunder Power released from the Thunderfire Stones bombarded the skeletons.

Duan Gujin opened his eyes wide, but the next moment, he was stupefied as he found the skeletons showed no signs of slowing down.

It seems like they don't fear lightning at all!

What's going on?

With a thought, Duan Gujin hurriedly had Tie Yi entangle them while he quickly set up a Thunder Array on the ground.

Soon, he had set up a simple Thunder Array.

He signaled Tie Yi to retreat, and he began controlling the Thunder Arrays to counterattack against those ten skeletons.

With a thunderous boom, the void ahead burst out with another intense explosion, and numerous rocks fell from the cave ceiling.

Seeing this, Duan Gujin inhaled sharply, his heart pounding violently.

"If this place truly collapses, then we're in trouble!"

He released his Divine Sense to scan the surroundings and found the rocks and stone walls around appeared to not be very sturdy.

Next, he saw those ten skeletons charging towards him.

Fortunately, those ancient skeletons didn't move fast; he could still escape if he couldn't beat them.

"I'm so dizzy! The Thunder Array has no effect on them!"

Duan Gujin's mind raced, and finding no other solution, he fled into the cave with Tie Yi.

He had seen Shi Potian closely follow behind the zombie, going after to kill it, so he followed suit.

Once inside the cave, he realized the ground wasn't naturally formed; it was paved with solid Green Stone.

Looking at the surrounding walls, he discovered that they were smooth stone walls.

Clearly, someone had manually excavated them.

Seeing the situation inside the cave, he suddenly understood.

"Could this place have been a Tomb in the past?"

Duan Gujin exhaled a turbid breath, no longer wanting to withstand those Martial Emperor realm zombies for Shi Potian; they simply didn't fear his Thunder Arrays!

His eyes flickered, and he came to a conclusion.

He had been used as cannon fodder by Shi Potian!

So, he rushed in with Tie Yi, no longer willing to be used as cannon fodder for Shi Potian.
