God Destroying Pearl

Old Man Qu Huo ignored Old Third Tao's urging and continued to slowly control the purple flame in his hand.

I saw him muttering to himself and quickly making some complicated hand seals.

Guided by his spiritual power, the purple flame slowly floated towards the stone gate.

The flame grew larger and larger, and when it reached the stone gate, it had turned into a huge fireball several feet in diameter, covering the entire stone gate.

The purple flames began to burn the restrictions on the stone door. The rune restrictions that were originally hidden on the door gradually emerged under the scorching flames, flashing orange-red light, intertwining with the purple flames, and making a "sizzling" sound, as if two forces were competing against each other.

Beads of sweat gradually appeared on old man Qu Huo's forehead. It was obvious that controlling this strange fire was quite a difficult task for him.

However, he still gritted his teeth and insisted on increasing the output of spiritual power.

As time went by, the light of the rune ban on the stone gate began to become dimmer and dimmer, while the flames of the purple flame became more and more vigorous.

The "sizzling" sound became louder and louder, echoing throughout the space.

Finally, under the expectant gaze of everyone, there was a crisp "click" sound.

The restrictions on the door seemed to be unable to bear the weight. Cracks appeared on them, and then they shattered with a loud bang, turning into spots of light and dissipating into the air.

Afterwards, Old Man Qu Huo shot a stream of spiritual power at Zi Yanhuo from a distance.

The purple flame was like an obedient elf. It followed the guidance of his spiritual power, gradually shrinking, and finally turned into a tiny flame and fell into his palm.

Then he waved his hand gently, and the flame disappeared completely, as if it had never appeared.

Seeing this, Tao Lao San's face lit up and he laughed, "Well done, Lao Qu, you are really capable. Now that the door is open, let's go in and take a look, don't let others get there first."

After saying that, he couldn't wait to walk towards the stone gate.

He reached out and put his hand on the door again, pushing hard.

This time, the stone door opened slowly, accompanied by a dull "creaking" sound.

A long-forgotten smell blew in from inside the door, mixed with the smell of decay.

There was a faint dim light coming through the door, but it was not enough to illuminate the entire space. People could only barely see some vague outlines and shadows.

Tao Laosan was about to step in when he paused as if he suddenly remembered something.

Then he turned to several cultivators who were at the late stage of foundation building or above and said, "Come here, everyone."

His voice was filled with unquestionable majesty. The hearts of the monks all tightened and they looked at each other with fear in their eyes.

"Senior Tao, what do you want me to do?" A cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage asked bravely, but his voice couldn't help but tremble a little. Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, which was particularly obvious in this cold environment.

Tao Laosan glanced at him, a slightly sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and pointed to the open stone door.

"You guys go ahead and explore the way first to see if there's any danger inside. If there's anything wrong, let us know in time. If you dare to have any other thoughts, don't blame me for being rude."

There was a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes.

After hearing this, the monks felt even more miserable in their hearts, but they could only agree meekly and slowly walked towards the stone gate.

While the other party didn't notice him, Song Yun quickly hid far away.

He performed a small spell to conceal his breath, and restrained his breath completely. His entire body seemed to blend into the surrounding environment. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to detect his presence at all.

Song Yun secretly thanked himself for his quick reaction, but at the same time he sneered at Tao Laosan's actions, thinking that these Jindan cultivators were really selfish and cruel. For their own safety, they actually used others as cannon fodder.

The monks stepped into the stone gate tremblingly. As soon as they entered, they felt an eerie chill crawling up their spines.

They couldn't help but shudder.

The surrounding space looked extremely empty, and the ground was still paved with stone slabs, but these slabs were covered with dust.

Walking on it makes a slight "rustling" sound.

They walked forward cautiously, looking around vigilantly, holding their magic weapons tightly in their hands, their spiritual power circulating secretly, ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.

Suddenly, the monk walking in front felt as if he stepped on something, making a crisp "crack" sound.

The sound was like a thunderclap in this quiet environment, scaring everyone so much that their faces turned pale. They hurriedly stopped and looked at their feet nervously.

It was a bone that had long been rotten. I didn't know whether it belonged to a human or a monster. Judging from the broken marks, it must have been crushed by the kick just now.

The monk quickly moved his foot away, feeling a sense of fear in his heart. It would be disastrous if the bone triggered some trap.

Just when they had not yet recovered from the shock, some faint green light suddenly appeared on the surrounding walls.

Those lights flickered like ghost lights, making the entire space eerie and terrifying.

Immediately afterwards, a group of black shadows emerged from the cracks in the wall.

Those shadows had various shapes, some looked like human figures, while others were distorted beyond recognition. They made low roars and floated towards several monks at an extremely fast speed, arriving in front of them in the blink of an eye.

"Ah! What is this?"

A monk screamed in fear and waved the magic weapon in his hand towards the shadows in panic.

But the magic weapon passed through the shadow and it was as if it hit the air, without causing any substantial damage.

But those shadows stretched out their long claws and grabbed the monks.

Before those claws came close to them, they felt an icy chill invading their bodies. The circulation of their spiritual energy became sluggish, and they felt as if all their strength was drained away in an instant, causing them to feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Help! Senior Tao, come and save us!"

The monks retreated desperately and shouted loudly. Their voices were full of despair and fear, echoing in this gloomy space, and seemed particularly miserable.

Tao Laosan and others who were outside the door heard the screams and shouts coming from inside, and their faces changed.

However, they did not rush in immediately. Instead, they stood at the door, vigilantly observing the movements inside, wanting to see the situation first.

"Hmph, these guys are really useless. They are in danger so soon. I don't know what's inside, but it's so powerful." Tao Laosan frowned and said dissatisfiedly.

Gan Jiuxing said solemnly, "Don't rush in, let's take a look first. Maybe this is just an appetizer, there are more powerful ones waiting for us inside. If we rush in and get trapped, we will be in trouble."

Yuan Li also nodded and agreed: "Brother Gan is right, we should be cautious and it won't be too late to take action after we figure out the situation."
