The cat demon defies the heavens and is the emperor’s only beloved disciple!

Under the guidance of the Emperor, Youmingbing and the Emperor traveled through every corner of the Netherworld, looking for the traces of the black-robed ghost.

They discovered that the black-robed ghost seemed to be inextricably linked to an ancient relic deep in the Netherworld.

In the ruins, a chilling wind blew and ghosts lurked. Nether Ice and Emperor Zun fought side by side, slaying demons and monsters along the way, and finally reached the deepest part of the ruins.

There, they found a huge altar, on top of which was a black stone emitting a strange light.

"This is the source of the black robe ghost's charm."

Emperor Zun said in a deep voice, his eyes fixed on the black stone, as if trying to see through the secret behind it.

Youmingbing nodded, he slowly walked towards the altar and reached out to touch the black stone.

Suddenly, an icy force surged into his body, causing him to shiver involuntarily.

But he did not back down, but continued to explore deeper.

At this moment, a cold laugh suddenly echoed in the ruins.

A figure in a black robe slowly walked out of the shadows. It was the black-robed ghost.

His face was distorted and hideous, and there was a mad light in his eyes.

"Youmingbing, you are finally here. Haha..." The black-robed ghost laughed loudly, his voice echoing in the ruins, full of provocation and arrogance.

Youmingbing and Emperor Zun looked at each other, and without saying anything, they attacked at the same time and launched a fierce attack on the black-robed ghost.

However, the strength of the black-robed ghost was beyond their imagination. With the help of the power of black stone, he continued to resist their attacks and gradually gained the upper hand.

Just when Youmingbing and Emperor Zun were engaged in a bitter battle, an unexpected figure appeared.

It was an old man in a white robe, holding a long sword. The sword light was like lightning, instantly cutting off the connection between the black-robed ghost and the black stone.

The black-robed ghost instantly turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared.

“Youmingbing, Yunche, you really didn’t let me down.” The old man said with a smile, his voice gentle and kind, as if it could heal all pain.

You Mingbing and Yun Che looked at the old man in surprise. They had never seen this person before, but the aura he exuded made them feel extremely friendly and familiar.

"Senior, who are you? Why are you here?" Youmingbing couldn't help but ask.

The old man smiled slightly and slowly revealed his identity.

It turned out that he was the former guardian of the Netherworld, and fell into a deep sleep for some reason.

Now, he sensed the crisis in the Netherworld Ghost Realm, and then he woke up and found Netherworld Bing and Yun Che.

“The mastermind behind the black-robed ghost is actually an ancient evil spirit deep in the Netherworld.

It has always coveted the power of the underworld, attempting to use it to break the seal and return to the human world.

The black-robed ghost is just a pawn." The old man said in a deep voice, his tone filled with anger and helplessness.

Hearing this, Youmingbing and Emperor Zun were horrified. They had never imagined that such a shocking conspiracy lay hidden behind this seemingly simple investigation mission.

"Senior, how should we respond?" asked the Emperor, his eyes revealing determination and resoluteness.

The old man smiled slightly, took out an ancient talisman from his arms and handed it to Youmingbing.

"This is a talisman that seals the evil spirit. Only the two of you can activate it together. Go, the safety of the Netherworld Ghost Realm is in your hands."

After saying this, the old man disappeared.

Youmingbing took the talisman and smiled at the Emperor.

They knew that this battle would be extremely difficult, but they also believed that as long as they worked together, they would be able to defeat the evil spirits and protect the peace of the underworld.

The two men held the talisman tightly in their hands and simultaneously cast their magic power, pouring all their spiritual power into it. The talisman gradually shone with a dazzling light, illuminating the entire Netherworld.

In the light, a huge rune can be vaguely seen, flashing with mysterious power.

As the light grew brighter, the runes began to spin, faster and faster, until they finally turned into a whirlwind and rushed towards the direction of the evil spirit.

Deep in the abyss of the underworld, the cold air is overwhelming, ghosts are everywhere, and shrill wails and unwilling curses echo all around.

Yun Che and You Ming Bing walked side by side, using their profound cultivation to resist the encroaching forces around them. In their eyes, there was both fear of the unknown and a desire to explore.

"Yun Che, we seem to have arrived at an extraordinary place."

Youmingbing's voice trembled slightly in the cold air, but it could not hide its firmness.

Yun Che nodded, a solemn look flashing in his eyes. “Indeed, the atmosphere here makes me feel more oppressive than ever before. But since we are here, we should make the best of it. We will face this together.”

Just as the two were about to explore deeper, a faint cry for help was heard, breaking the silence of the abyss.

Although the voice was as thin as a gossamer thread, it was enough to touch the softest part of Yun Che's heart. He turned abruptly and followed the sound, with Youming Bing following closely behind.

After passing through a series of mazes woven by ghosts, they finally arrived at a hidden cave.

Inside the cave, the light was dim, but it was enough to reflect a heartbreaking scene: Yun Che's beloved disciple Xu Wan was tightly bound by thick iron chains, her face pale, her eyes full of despair and helplessness.

Beside her, Yun Che's two guardians, Tan Yuan and Yan Wu, were trapped. They were also chained and unable to move.

“Master! Master, save me!” The moment she saw Yun Che, a glimmer of hope flashed in Xu Wan’s eyes, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Yun Che's heart was broken as if by a knife. He quickly stepped forward and stretched out his hand, wanting to touch Xu Wan's face, but stopped in mid-air.

He took a deep breath, calmed himself, then circulated his spiritual power, summoned the Blue Sky Sword, and tried to cut the chain.

However, the moment the chains snapped, more chains surged forth like a tide, tightly entangling Xu Wan. In the blink of an eye, she was engulfed in layers of chains, like a trapped butterfly.

Yun Che's eyes widened in astonishment. The chains seemed to possess life, actively attacking! He wielded the Azure Divine Sword, slashing at the chains with all his might, but every time he severed one, more would appear.

"What kind of evil thing is this? How could it possibly escape my Azure Divine Sword..." Yun Che muttered to himself, veins bulging on his forehead. At this moment, he was extremely anxious, yet he was at his wit's end.

“Brother Yun Che, calm down!” You Mingbing shouted loudly, “This strange iron chain seems to be controlled by some force. The more you struggle, the tighter it wraps around you!”

Yun Che suppressed his anxiety and tried to calm himself down. He stared at the scene before him, thinking about how to deal with it...

"This chain is so weird..." Youmingbing frowned.

“What’s going on? Why are you here?” Yun Che’s voice was low and angry. He looked around, trying to find the answer.

Tan Yuan and Yan Wu exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with complex emotions. Finally, Tan Yuan spoke slowly, "Emperor, we were accidentally drawn into this place by a mysterious force. As for our Lord, she ventured into the abyss in search of us..."

Yun Che felt a mixture of emotions upon hearing this. He knew Xu Wan's personality well: she was stubborn and persistent. Once she set her mind to something, she wouldn't give up easily.

In order to save her spiritual pets, one is the fire unicorn - Yanwu that she contracted in the Monster Forest, and the other is a sandalwood comb - Tanyuan that the God bought for her at a stall in the Ghost Market Night Market, in order to save them, she is now enduring unimaginable pain.

“Youming, we must find a way to break the spell and rescue them.” Yun Che looked at Youming Bing, his eyes gleaming with determination.

Youmingbing nodded, his eyes also burning with fighting spirit: "Don't worry, we came together, and we will return together. Although this Nether Abyss is strong, it cannot stop our determination."
