Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

Of course, even after leaving the stone chamber, Zhou Yiqiao still did not relax at all.

He did not forget that this cave was heavily guarded by the Shadow Alliance, and there were dozens of monks of the same level as him stationed inside and outside.

If his identity was exposed at this time, he would definitely be hunted down by the entire Shadow Alliance.

"The Eight-Direction Transportation Technique has been activated. The monks of the Shadow Alliance will definitely sense the abnormality here and come to check it out. We must leave here as soon as possible."

Zhou Yiqiao moved with difficulty leaning against the wall, quickly thinking of a way to escape.

"What we already know is that there are more than a dozen Divine Transformation cultivators outside the cave. In my current state, there is absolutely no possibility for me to escape from them."

"For now, the only solution is to find a safe place in the cave and wait until it recovers before making long-term plans."

Thinking of this, Zhou Yiqiao walked into a corner, and with the help of a dim night pearl above the corridor, he took out the map that Li Chengxian had used to guide the way.

On the map, the vital points of the entire Shadow Alliance were densely marked. Zhou Yiqiao's eyes moved quickly on the map, looking for a place to hide.

Suddenly, his sight stopped on a specially marked spot.

This location is close to the depths of the Shadow Alliance and is also the core area of ​​the Shadow Alliance.

According to the information recorded on Li Chengxian's map, even the core members of the Shadow Alliance rarely can enter this place.

If Zhou Yiqiao could arrive here, there is a great chance that he could avoid the search of the Shadow Alliance monks and gain peace at that time.

"How credible is Li Chengxian's map..."

Zhou Yiqiao was hesitant and couldn't make up his mind for a while.

The information on this map was too detailed, even some secrets within the Shadow Alliance were marked out. Zhou Yiqiao really didn't think that Li Chengxian was capable of obtaining such detailed intelligence.

"Never mind... Fortune and wealth are to be found in danger."

Zhou Yiqiao gritted his teeth and decided to take a risk.

Zhou Yiqiao took a deep breath, endured the severe pain from his injuries, and began to move towards the mysterious place step by step according to the instructions on the map.

He pushed the breath-concealing technique on the Samsara Monument to its limit, carefully avoiding the patrolling monks and moving forward quietly using the various shelters in the corridor.

As time went by, Zhou Yiqiao got closer and closer to the mysterious place.

He could feel that the atmosphere around him was becoming increasingly oppressive, as if some indescribable force was quietly gathering.

"This place... is indeed extraordinary."

Zhou Yiqiao's heart trembled, but he did not stop and continued to move forward.

Finally, Zhou Yiqiao arrived at his destination.

This place is located inside a spacious passage with stone pillars on both sides. At regular intervals, there is a stone lamp emitting a faint fluorescent light.

The function of these stone lamps is not to illuminate the passage, but to emit faint fluorescence, giving people a hazy feeling and creating an illusion.

The Luohou Soul-Capture Stele played a role again, helping Zhou Yiqiao dispel the illusion and allowing him to clearly see a stone door at the end of the passage.

The stone door was tightly closed, and on it was carved an evil ghost wearing a hood and with wings on his back.

The evil ghost was flying in the air, and under it were countless human monks kneeling on the ground, kowtowing to it continuously.

The evil ghost looked down upon all living beings with a hideous and sinister smile on his face, which seemed to be mocking and despising them.

There was a cold and oppressive aura emanating from the stone gate, which made Zhou Yiqiao shiver.

"What on earth is behind this door? Why is it emitting such a terrifying aura?"

Although Zhou Yiqiao was filled with doubt and uncertainty, the arrow was on the string and had to be shot.

"Now that we've come this far, let's fight it out first, regardless of life or death."

Zhou Yiqiao took a deep breath, raised his hand and slowly pushed the stone door upwards.

"Boom!"

The stone door slowly opened, and an even stronger sense of oppression came towards me.

Zhou Yiqiao used his remaining spiritual power to create a protective shield for himself, and then stepped into the stone gate.

Behind the stone gate is a huge natural cave.

The cave was pitch black, with only a few faint blue lights flickering in the distance, like will-o'-the-wisp fires, adding a bit of weirdness to the dark space.

Zhou Yiqiao's heart tightened. He felt as if he had stepped into the territory of some ancient and powerful being. Every cell in his body was warning him that there was extreme danger ahead.

"Om~"

Suddenly, a strange chirping sound was heard.

The cry sounded like a crow, but it was not quite the same.

Before Zhou Yiqiao could figure out what was coming from there, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew past his ears.

Accompanied by the sound of "crunching" teeth, a huge monster rushed out from the darkness.

"Shh!"

Zhou Yiqiao's pupils suddenly shrank, and he saw a huge black figure rushing towards him from the front. In the blink of an eye, it came close, opened its bloody mouth, and bit him fiercely.

"Oh!"

In a flash, the shield on Zhou Yiqiao's body shattered, and the whole person flew backwards, falling heavily to the ground, breaking several pieces of the floor.

Zhou Yiqiao struggled to stand up, feeling as if his internal organs had shifted and the pain was excruciating.

He didn't have time to check his injuries because the huge black figure pounced on him again.

Zhou Yiqiao narrowed his eyes, and with the faint light in the cave, he finally saw clearly what was attacking him.

It was a huge black crow, its feathers gleaming with metallic luster, its eyes as red as blood, and it exuded a strong murderous intent.

The most bizarre thing is that there are two scarlet gems on the beak of this crow, flashing a heart-pounding blood-red light.

At this moment, the crow's mouth was wide open, and Zhou Yiqiao could even see circles and circles of densely arranged spikes in its mouth.

"Whoosh!"

The crow spread its wings and flew high again, heading towards Zhou Yiqiao to bite him.

Zhou Yiqiao's heart sank. He knew that with his current injuries, it was impossible for him to escape.

"Fight!"

He put his two fingers together and pressed them hard towards his brows, forcibly concentrating his sea of ​​consciousness and summoning the only magical weapon he could rely on, the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

The shrill cries echoed in Zhou Yiqiao's ears. Wisps of black smoke rose from the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and turned into blurry ghosts in the void.

After the ghosts appeared, they immediately attacked the crows under Zhou Yiqiao's control.

Unfortunately, the crow was faster than thunder, and the ghosts could only block it for a short while before it completely got rid of it.

"Hey!"

The sharp claws cut through the air and grabbed Zhou Yiqiao's chest in an instant.

At this moment, Zhou Yiqiao, who no longer had any strength to resist, stared straight at the huge claw, waiting for the judge of fate to come.
