The cold air wrapped around Yan Yue's neck like a slippery snake, making her shiver.

The interior of the building was even larger than she had imagined. The winding corridors were as complex as a maze, and the runes on the walls flickered eerily in the dim light, as if they would come alive at any moment.

Yan Yue took every step with extreme caution, fearing any trap or device would trigger. In the silence, any subtle sound was amplified, even her own heartbeat was clearly audible.

Suddenly, Yan Yue felt a faint fluctuation of spiritual energy. This fluctuation was extremely subtle. If she had not experienced countless life and death trials in her previous life and had not been extremely sensitive to spiritual energy, she would probably not have been able to detect it at all. She held her breath and slowly approached the direction of the fluctuation.

The fluctuations emanated from a wall at the end of the corridor. It appeared ordinary, yet it faintly exuded an unusual aura. Yan Yue observed it carefully and discovered a slightly different arrangement of runes on the wall, resembling the switch of some kind of forbidden barrier. She reached out and lightly touched the rune with her fingertips. A strange energy flowed into her body, and the wall silently slid apart, revealing a dark passage leading underground.

Yan Yue stepped into the passage without hesitation. It felt even more eerie inside, the air thick with the smell of blood. She walked down a spiral staircase for a long time before finally arriving at a spacious underground chamber. In the center of the chamber stood a stone table, upon which lay a scroll of parchment and several shimmering crystals.

Yan Yue quickly walked over to the stone table, picked up the parchment and unfolded it. It contained a map of the distribution of personnel at the base of the underworld supernatural organization, as well as the layout of various traps and mechanisms. This was exactly her biggest goal on this trip!

"Great!" Yan Yue was delighted and carefully put the parchment away. At this moment, she felt a strong murderous aura coming from behind!

Yan Yue turned around abruptly and saw a man in black, his face hidden in shadows, appear at the doorway of the secret room. In his hand was a gleaming dagger, his eyes flashing with cold murderous intent.

"Shadow Messenger!" Yan Yue recognized the other party's identity at a glance. This was the most elite assassin in the underworld supernatural organization, famous for his concealment and assassination.

The Shadow Messenger said nothing, but in a flash, he lunged at Yan Yue like a ghost. Yan Yue was well prepared, and with a flick of his body, he barely dodged the attack.

In the secret room, a fierce battle broke out instantly. Although Yan Yue only appeared to be at the early stage of the Golden Core stage, he relied on the combat experience accumulated in his previous life and the powerful strength cultivated in secret to fight the Shadow Messenger on equal terms.

At the same time, Nong Jin, who was anxiously waiting outside the building, suddenly felt that Yan Yue's spiritual power fluctuations became more intense, and an ominous premonition suddenly arose in his heart.

"Yuer, what happened?" Nong Jin shouted anxiously into the sound transmission note in his hand.

However, the sound transmission note only heard a chaotic sound of fighting, and then it stopped abruptly...

Nong Jin's expression changed, and he stood up suddenly. He stared at the eerie building with a sharp gaze and said in a deep voice, "It seems we have to go in and take a look!"

Nong Jin's gaze was fixed on the eerie building, as if he could see through it. His brow furrowed, his eyes filled with love and worry. He knew Yan Yue was alone in there, facing danger, and his heart felt like it was being gripped by an invisible hand. Every fluctuation of Yan Yue's spiritual power tugged at his nerves. He wanted to rush in and fight alongside her, but he also knew that Yan Yue needed him to wait here, to protect her from behind.

Yan Yue was locked in a fierce battle with the Shadowbringer in a secret room. The Shadowbringer's attacks were swift and strange, as cold and venomous as a venomous snake, making them impossible to defend against. Despite Yan Yue's formidable strength, he did not dare to take it lightly.

She dodged the Shadowbringer's attacks while searching for his weaknesses. During one confrontation, Yan Yue felt Nong Jin's gaze, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She knew he was outside, protecting her. This warm power made her more determined and braver.

At this moment, Yan Yue's sound transmission talisman sounded again, and it was Su Yao's anxious voice: "Sister Yan Yue, it's not good! There are a lot of shadow messengers approaching outside!"

Yan Yue's heart sank. The Shadow Messenger actually had reinforcements! This was undoubtedly adding insult to injury for her. She had to quickly eliminate the enemy before her, otherwise, if she were surrounded, the consequences would be disastrous.

Yan Yue took a deep breath, pushing her spiritual energy to its limit. Her figure became more erratic, and her attacks more fierce. The Shadowbringer clearly sensed Yan Yue's change, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but his attacks did not weaken in the slightest.

The sounds of fighting in the secret room grew more intense. The shock waves generated by the collision of spiritual energy continuously hit the walls, making a deafening sound. The entire building seemed to be shaking.

Nong Jin, who was outside, also heard the noise in the secret room, and his expression became even more solemn. He knew that Yan Yue was facing great danger, and he had to be prepared to support her at any time.

Su Yao's face was pale. She could clearly sense that the shadow messengers were approaching quickly. The murderous aura on them made her shudder. She held the magic weapon tightly in her hand and prepared for the battle.

Lin Yu was also nervously observing the situation around him. He kept adjusting the layout of the formation, hoping to resist the attack of the Shadow Messenger to the greatest extent.

Lei Hu seemed eager to try, he couldn't wait to compete with these shadow messengers. The great axe in his hand gleamed with cold light, like a beast ready to attack.

Suddenly, Lei Hu felt a strange breath. He suddenly raised his head and looked towards the entrance of the building.

"Here it comes!" Lei Hu growled, raising the giant axe in his hand high...

The great axe in Lei Hu's hand sliced ​​through the night sky, bringing with it a biting cold wind as it fiercely struck the Shadowbringer, the first to appear. The axe blade rubbed against the air, emitting a sharp whistling sound, like an angry beast roaring and pouncing on its prey. The Shadowbringer flashed and disappeared like a ghost. Lei Hu's great axe missed, slamming heavily to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Before Lei Hu could swing his axe again, other shadow messengers emerged like a tide. Clad in black night clothes, they silently surrounded Lei Hu like ghosts born from the darkness. The daggers in their hands flashed with cold light, like the fangs of venomous snakes, emitting a chilling murderous aura.

The Shadowbringers scattered, attacking Lei Hu from all directions. Their movements were swift and unpredictable, as elusive as ghosts, making them difficult to predict. Lei Hu fought back fiercely, swinging his axe with great force, pushing back the approaching Shadowbringers one by one. But he was outnumbered, and the Shadowbringers' attacks grew more and more fierce, and he gradually felt powerless.

"Brother Lei Hu, I'm here to help you!" Lin Yu saw this and immediately joined the battle. He quickly formed seals with his hands and muttered something. Golden runes flew out from his hands, interweaving in the air to form a complex formation. The formation radiated a powerful energy, trapping some of the shadow messengers within, making them unable to move.

However, there were still more Shadow Messengers who were not trapped by the formation, and they continued to besiege Lei Hu and Lin Yu. Su Yao also joined the battle, her long whip dancing like a spirit snake, repelling the approaching Shadow Messengers one by one. But she was only in the early stage of the Golden Core after all, and she gradually felt exhausted in the face of so many Shadow Messengers.

At that moment, a dazzling light descended from the sky, like a flash of lightning piercing the night sky. Nong Jin appeared before everyone, radiating powerful spiritual energy, like a god descending from heaven. He thrust his palms together, and a surge of spiritual energy swept out like a tsunami, sending all the surrounding shadow emissaries flying.

The Shadow Messengers were thrown back dozens of meters, each one spitting blood and looking pale. Their eyes were filled with fear, having clearly not expected Nong Jin to be so powerful. However, they did not give up, but quickly regrouped, their eyes gleaming with ferocity.

Nong Jin stared coldly at the Shadow Messengers with a piercing gaze. He knew this was only a temporary lull, and the real battle had just begun. These Shadow Messengers were well-trained, coordinated, and ruthless, making them no pushovers.

At the same time, in the gloomy building, Yan Yue was still searching for information about the base of the underworld supernatural organization.

She carefully walked through the maze-like corridors, vigilantly observing everything around her. Suddenly, she found a secret door on a wall. The secret door was hidden very cleverly, and it would be difficult to find its existence without careful observation.

Yan Yue's heart skipped a beat. She sensed that this secret door might hold important information. She attempted to open it, only to discover it was surrounded by complex restrictions. She reached out and gently touched one of the restrictions, sending a powerful surge of energy through her. "This restriction..." Yan Yue muttered, her gaze fixed on the shimmering runes.
