"Ningbao, Yu'er, wait for your mother here. I'll be right back." Shen Yunxi said, her voice trembling with excitement. "Lanyu, take care of the two children for me. If anything happens to them, I'll hold you responsible!"

"Mommy, be careful!" the two children said in unison.

Shen Yunxi nodded slightly, and with a gentle wave of her hand, a spiritual energy barrier enveloped the two children as a precaution.

Then, with a light touch of her toes, she darted towards the cliff like a swallow.

A thick, poisonous miasma rushed towards us, carrying a nauseating, fishy stench.

Shen Yunxi circulated her spiritual power to form a protective shield around her body, keeping the poisonous miasma out.

Even so, she could still feel the poisonous miasma corroding her, but with her cultivation level, this amount of miasma was not enough to pose a threat.

Climbing up the cliff, Shen Yunxi carefully picked the Seven-Star Purple Lingzhi and put it into her storage bag.

Just then, out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of a cave entrance hidden by vines on the cliff face.

Driven by curiosity, Shen Yunxi parted the vines, revealing a hole just wide enough for one person to pass through.

The cave was pitch black and bottomless, like a giant beast ready to devour its prey, exuding a mysterious aura.

"Snowflake, can you sense what's inside?" Shen Yunxi asked in a low voice.

After a moment, Xue Rong replied, "Master, I cannot know what's inside. I only know that what's inside is very dangerous."

Shen Yunxi frowned slightly. She couldn't even sense the snowflakes?

She wanted to turn and leave, but there seemed to be a force drawing her in.

Ultimately, she decided to first use her divine sense to explore the inside of the cave. However, as soon as her divine sense entered the cave, it vanished without a trace, as if it had disappeared into the sea.

"What's going on?" Shen Yunxi was startled.

Her divine sense was unable to probe the inside of the cave, which meant that either there was a powerful restriction inside the cave, or there was some terrifying existence that could devour divine sense.

What's meant to be will be. Shen Yunxi took a deep breath and decided to enter the cave to investigate. She carefully put away the Seven-Star Purple Lingzhi and then cautiously stepped into the cave…

The cave was pitch black, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face. Shen Yunxi circulated her spiritual power, and a cluster of eerie blue flame ignited at her fingertips, illuminating the path ahead.

As she ventured deeper, the cave gradually widened. After walking for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a breathtaking view suddenly opened up before her.

A huge underground space appeared before Shen Yunxi, with an altar in the center and a huge black crystal ball on it.

The crystal ball emitted an eerie black light, as if it were trying to suck in one's soul.

Just then, a chilling voice suddenly echoed in the cave: "Welcome to my territory, unknown intruder..."

The eerie blue flames flickered, illuminating Shen Yunxi's wary face. The voice was chilling, like a venomous snake's hiss, making the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end.

The darkness surrounding the altar seemed to writhe like living things, and a figure slowly emerged from it.

It was an old man dressed in a long black robe, with a withered face and sunken eyes, like a thousand-year-old mummy. He exuded a nauseating, chilling aura, like the stench of stagnant water.

"Hehehe... How many years has it been? Finally, someone has come..." The old man's withered lips moved slightly, emitting a chilling laugh: "I am the ancient demon god Chi You, trapped here for thousands of years. Today, I have finally found a destined person who can help me break free!"
