Legend of the Asura Emperor

The attacks hit Xiaohua like a tickle, having absolutely no effect.

"What kind of monster is this cat that was able to block my sword with its bare body and remain completely unharmed?"

With his sword blocked, Chi Sha stared intently at Xiao Hua, who was floating behind Jun Han, his expression complex.

After catching his breath, Jun Han felt his vital energy rapidly dissipating. The continuous battles, coupled with forcibly using the fifth step of the Seven Steps of Heavenly Gang, had left him at his limit.

"Master Jun, I have three more Rejuvenation Pills here. Please take them quickly."

While Ao Sha, Chen Sha, and Yu Sha were helping Jun Han, Murong Ming and Wan Lei Saint also came to Jun Han's side.

Seeing that Jun Han's vital energy was rapidly dissipating, Murong Ming quickly handed him three pills.

Jun Han took the pill and immediately swallowed it, which barely slowed down the dissipation of his vital energy.

"Young Master Jun, I think we can't continue fighting. Although you killed one person and seriously injured two others with your powerful methods, they still have five Nascent Soul Realm seventh level cultivators. We can't hold on any longer."

"It's a reminder from the Saint of Ten Thousand Thunders, whose lips are streaked with blood."

Somewhat weak, Jun Han said in a deep voice, "I took the initiative to make a move this time only to deal with Ye Wuying and avenge my previous humiliation. As for the Seven Earthly Fiends, I am not yet confident that I can deal with them all."

Now that our objective has been achieved, we will retreat for the time being. Give me a little more time, and once I break through to the third level of the Nascent Soul Realm, I will have nothing to fear from these people.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Jun Han's sword intent, filled with boundless hatred and overwhelming killing intent, reappeared in his hand and surged forth towards Chi Sha and the others: "Hate Sword Technique - Heart-wrenching Severance!"

"Watch out, it's that weird attack again!"

The moment the invisible sword intent rippled out, Chi Sha and the others, having learned from their first experience, immediately reacted and focused their minds to resist the invasion of this invisible sword intent.

However, while they were resisting, Jun Han had already achieved his goal.

Taking advantage of the moment when Chi Sha and the others were defending against the attack, Jun Han, Murong Ming, Wan Lei Saint, and Xiao Hua immediately broke through the encirclement and tried to escape.

But just as the three people and the cat were about to leave, the entire earth suddenly trembled, and an incredibly thick earth elemental energy, like a churning ocean, suddenly erupted, enveloping everything around it.

Even Chi Sha and the others were enveloped by this earth-elemental energy.

The earth elemental energy surrounding the waiting area made everyone's steps feel like they were filled with lead, making it impossible for them to move even half a step. Those who were originally floating in the sky were now falling rapidly towards the ground.

Just as it was about to crash heavily onto the ground, the originally solid ground cracked open.

Jie!!

A strange roar, like thunder, exploded in everyone's ears, deafeningly loud!

"Damn it! Such strong earth elemental energy, what is this thing?"

Enveloped in thick earth-elemental energy, the Thunder Saint gritted his teeth, trying to break free of it, but he was unable to do so.

"This level of earth elemental energy is probably close to the origin of earth. What exactly is inside the Tianyang Mountains?!"

Jun Han, enveloped in earth elemental energy, also showed a strange expression.

From the moment he entered the Tianyang Mountains, he sensed the strangeness and mystery of the place, as if it were hiding some secret.

This sudden and dramatic change has further convinced him that there must be something unknown hidden within the Tianyang Mountains.

Not only them, but also Chi Sha, Tan Sha and others whose cultivation had reached the seventh level of the Nascent Soul stage or above were completely unable to break free from the earth elemental energy's envelopment.

One by one, like iron blocks falling into a river, they all fell rapidly towards the cracked earth.

The cracks in the earth were like giant monsters with gaping maws, swallowing everyone into endless darkness until they all disappeared.

On the ground, only the distant Du Sha and the heavily injured Ye Wuying remained, having not yet fallen.

But everyone else disappeared.

"What...what exactly happened..."

Seeing everyone fall into the huge, dark crack, and the incredibly thick, ever-expanding earth elemental energy, a look of utter astonishment flashed across Du Sha's face.

But now he dared not linger, so he immediately circulated his energy, lifted Ye Wuying up, and then quickly left the place.

He didn't want to be enveloped by this strange earth elemental energy and end up falling into that unknown, dark rift.

……

In the pitch-black environment, after falling for an unknown amount of time, Jun Han, the other two, and the cat finally landed.

The heavy earth elemental energy on their bodies made them feel as if their entire body's energy was under fatal pressure, and this pressure only eased slightly after they landed.

But this only slightly alleviated the problem; it was clearly impossible for them to use their spiritual energy to float away now.

Jun Han took a breath and ignited his own vital energy into a ball of fire in his hand. By the light of the fire, they could see their surroundings clearly.

They found themselves in a passage resembling a cave, with darkness overhead and only a faint glimpse of earth-elemental energy gushing forth from a distant crack.

The passage they were in was filled with extremely heavy earth-elemental energy, like mountains pressing down on their shoulders.

Inside the passage, Jun Han could only sense the presence of a few of them.

As for the group of people who had just left, he could no longer sense them at all, as if they had completely disappeared.

"Where exactly is this place? How do we get out of here?"

Murong Ming, who had tried to levitate several times but failed each time, said in a deep voice.

Even with his lightest spiritual wind cultivation technique, he couldn't levitate. He was filled with awe for this strange underground passage.

"I don't know... It might not be so easy for us to leave. At this point, we can only take it one step at a time."

Jun Han shook his head. He had tried many methods, but still couldn't break free from the shackles of these earth-elemental energies.

There's a very apt saying that describes them as prisoners bound by invisible shackles, trapped here.

Controlling his aura as much as possible, Jun Han led the way to explore into the passage.

Perhaps because it was deep underground, the passage was filled with a cold, icy atmosphere.

The passageway in this cave stretched downwards continuously, branching out in an unusually large number. In just a short time, Jun Han had already passed six or seven forks in the road. Even more alarming, these forks weren't simply two-way choices; some offered four or five options, and one even had eight.

It is certain that once inside, anyone who doesn't know the way will get lost in this vast and dark underground space.

As they traveled deeper into the cave, Jun Han felt the surrounding atmosphere begin to solidify. This was not merely due to the cold air circulating underground, but because the surrounding air itself seemed to be frozen solid.

Similarly, the little flower on Junhan's shoulder also sensed the change, and its cute little face tightened up. As it continued forward, Junhan suddenly realized that it seemed to have stepped on something.
