For a moment, everyone present was filled with deep fear.
Just as everyone was tense, suddenly, two Martial Artists saw a white figure appear in the cave ahead of them.
That figure flashed past quickly in front of their eyes, immediately instilling fear in their hearts.
"There's a Demon ahead!"
The two Martial Artists exclaimed in unison.
The others quickly followed the gaze of the two Martial Artists.
However, they saw nothing.
"Everyone, be careful! This place is very strange!"
Ning Tiancheng said.
Others heightened their vigilance and remained cautious.
They were unable to use Divine Sense Inspection here and could only observe the way forward with their bare eyes.
The group continued to advance, and after a while, they came upon a large hall ahead.
Around the hall, there were four cave-like entrances.
To prevent getting lost, the group quickly made some markings on the entrance they came through.
Then, a terrifying scene appeared once again; they saw eleven corpses lying on the ground.
After checking for a while, they found that the bodies had already turned into ghastly white bones, and their clothing had rotted beyond recognition.
"Let's check the condition of these corpses!"
The group, lacking any storage rings or Dark Weapons on themselves, thought to search the corpses for any storage rings or Dark Weapons.
Yet, after some searching, they found no storage rings or Dark Weapons on the white bones.
"How strange, there's not a single storage ring or Dark Weapon on these bodies!"
A Martial Artist muttered.
Duan Gujin's eyes widened as he closely examined a skeleton.
He noticed that in life, the person must have been terrorized; the skeleton's mouth was agape.
He pondered for a moment, then went on to inspect other skeletons.
After a while, he discovered that almost all the skeletons had their mouths open.
"These skeletons are very strange!"
He thought to himself.
"Everyone, follow me; let's go to the left and have a look first!"
Ning Tiancheng instructed.
Led by him, the group moved to the first entrance.
Following the cave entrance for about ten meters, they encountered an iron gate.
The group carefully checked around the iron gate for any Mechanical Traps and, finding none, pushed open the gate together.
Upon opening the iron gate, they too were greeted with a pile of White Bone inside.
"My God! Not these white bones again! What kind of place is this?"
"Don't just chatter! Everyone search around and see if you can find any useful clues."
"Look, there are murals here!"
"What do these murals mean?"
Duan Gujin joined the others and started analyzing the murals.
After a moment, Duan Gujin's expression changed drastically; he recognized the meaning behind the murals.
"Everyone, I think I can guess some of the meanings behind this mural. I'll share everything I know!"
Duan Gujin knew that if he didn't share his insights, it was possible their entire team could be wiped out.
"Tell us!"
The others showed interest.
Duan Gujin took a deep breath and pointed at a river on the mural, "The place we are in right now is called Netherworld Hell, which means we are at the boundary between the Netherworld and the Human World, and this river is the Netherworld River. See these images of different Species – do you know what they signify?"
Duan Gujin pointed to various images of living creatures on both sides of the river.
"Tell us!"
The others were not in the mood for guessing and asked Duan Gujin to reveal the truth directly.
"This image represents the Human Clan, this one the Devil Clan, and this one the Demon Clan! And this image represents the creatures of the Netherworld!"
The others compared Duan Gujin's analysis to the mural images and felt he was correct.
Even if what Duan Gujin said wasn't the truth, it at least broadened their horizons.
"This image represents the creatures of the Netherworld! And if you keep looking, these two murals show these creatures ganging up on the creature of the Netherworld, who resists but is ultimately killed!"
The others began to see some similarities after Duan Gujin's explanation.
"The third image represents the creatures of the Netherworld pleading for help from the heavens and eventually receiving a Meteorite. Relying on the Meteorite, the Netherworld creature gained great power! Then it overthrew all creatures depicted here, trampling them underfoot! However, one day, the other Species discovered the Netherworld creature's Meteorite and stole it! Look, doesn't this image resemble other species defeating the creature of the Netherworld? Without the Meteorite, the Netherworld creature became extremely vulnerable and was quickly defeated by the other species, and then the creatures of the Netherworld were also Sealed here!"
Duan Gujin spoke earnestly.
The story that Duan Gujin was telling wasn't something that could be immediately recognized just from the mural; instead, it combined a legend he had heard about the creatures of the Netherworld with what he saw in the mural.
Hearing this, the others began to link Duan Gujin's words with the mural.
After a while, they guessed that Duan Gujin was probably not lying.
"My God! Could it be that we've reached the base of some Netherworld Demon creature?"
One Martial Artist became fearful.
"Hmm! Possibly! Anyway, let's go take a look at other places! Maybe the Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect is just testing our courage this time!"
Duan Gujin's eyes shone as he spoke.
"Right, it should be like that!"
After pondering, the others felt it highly probable that the test by the Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect was a test of their courage.
After they left the cave, they returned to the original hall.
"There's a noise!"
Everyone immediately heightened their alertness, and after a while, they saw more than a dozen competitors who had entered the hall through the same corridor they had previously used.
"So you've already made it here!"
Someone from the later team remarked.
"Yes, this place is most likely a test from the Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect for us. We must work together as a team and leave together!"
Ning Tiancheng said.
"Yes! Yes! Did you find anything here?"
Someone from the later team asked.
"Just follow us!"
Ning Tiancheng proudly stated.
"Alright!"
The later team accepted Ning Tiancheng's leadership, and under his guidance, the group proceeded to check the other caves.
They discovered that the other caves contained halls almost similar in appearance, except the walls of these halls had different murals.
Duan Gujin, from the content of these other murals, came to a conclusion that they had apparently reached the Sealed Land of a wise leader of the Netherworld Demon.
