If There's No Path, I'll Punch One Open

On the other side, Chen Fan and his two companions were walking through a long and deep passage.

That faint, lingering fragrance, like a leech clinging to a bone, always lingered at the tip of my nose.

The passage seemed endless, with the surrounding crystal walls reflecting a ghostly light, casting the three people's shadows of varying lengths, creating a suffocatingly oppressive atmosphere.

I don't know how long I walked.

"Haa..."

Shen Xuan suddenly let out a long yawn without warning, and an irresistible drowsiness surged into his heart like a tide.

He jolted awake, trying to force himself to stay alert, only to be horrified to find that the surging Qi and Blood within him were now mired in quagmire, their circulation slowed considerably.

"Not good!"

Almost simultaneously, Su Qingyue's cool and beautiful face also changed slightly.

She felt as if her Divine Sense had been filled with thick mercury, becoming incredibly heavy, and even the movement of her thoughts began to sluggish.

She immediately looked at Chen Fan and urgently warned, "This fragrance is strange! It's a deadly poison that targets the Divine Soul!"

However, the expected wary expression from Chen Fan did not appear.

Instead of feeling the slightest discomfort, he closed his eyes, took a deep breath of the irresistible aroma, and wore an expression of utter blissful enjoyment.

"Hmm... it tastes good."

As soon as he finished speaking, the "Myriad Dao Furnace Scripture" within his body began to operate spontaneously. The fragrant poison that had invaded his body was easily refined without even causing a ripple, turning into a wisp of pure nourishment that nourished his Divine Soul.

"You..."

Su Qingyue was speechless as she watched Chen Fan savoring the food.

Just as Shen Xuan and Su Qingyue were somewhat speechless...

A sudden change has occurred!

"Hiss!!"

The originally solid crystal barriers on both sides of the passage suddenly began to twist and writhe like black liquid.

Immediately afterwards, countless dark Abyss creatures, which had been encountered before, silently surged out from the liquefied walls!

They were like phantoms blending into the darkness, their timing was impeccable, precisely at the moment when the two people's Divine Souls were most vulnerable and their reactions were slowest!

Damn it!

Shen Xuan cursed angrily and bit his tongue hard, the excruciating pain bringing him a moment of clarity.

He suddenly unfolded his folding fan, and a faint blue sword light barely materialized, slashing towards the black shadow that was charging at him.

Su Qingyue also desperately urged her Mental Power to set up an invisible mental barrier in front of her.

However, their reaction speed and strength were greatly reduced under the influence of the Yellow Springs Fragrance, and they were instantly overwhelmed by dozens of fearless Abyss creatures, falling into an unprecedented danger.

Watching the two of them frantically trying to do something, Chen Fan stood there and sighed helplessly.

"Hey, what's the rush!"

He finally stopped watching the play.

He simply trembled slightly, without needing to make any unnecessary movements.

Buzz!

A pure, Golden Qi and Blood emanated from him, spreading out gently like ripples.

The halo swept over Shen Xuan and Su Qingyue's bodies, and the poison that had almost made them faint was instantly purified and dispelled the moment it came into contact with the golden halo, just like ice and snow meeting the blazing sun.

The two felt a sudden lightness in their Divine Souls, as if a great weight had been lifted from their shoulders, and their consciousness instantly returned to clarity.

After doing all this, Chen Fan lazily raised his head and looked at the endless Abyss creatures surging in from all directions.

He completely unleashed the essence of the "Myriad Dao Furnace Scripture".

In an instant, he seemed to transform into a dazzling little sun in the dark passage, and the power that fused all the Ten Thousand Dao caused all the Abyss creatures that rushed towards him to instinctively freeze.

Chen Fan grinned and beckoned to the endless horde of monsters with his finger.

"The appetizers are finished."

"Now, the real Taotie is about to begin!"

Before he finished speaking, he transformed into a golden Stream of Light and plunged back into the dense horde of monsters, unleashing a one-sided massacre.

Inside the dark passage, as the last pitch-black Abyss creature transformed into a wisp of pure energy and was absorbed into Chen Fan's body, the surroundings instantly fell into a deathly silence.

The monstrous horde that had previously engulfed everything and made even Golden Body Realm experts shudder has now left not a trace of its existence.

"Belch..."

Chen Fan patted his slightly bulging belly contentedly and let out a burp.

A stream of pure energy, visible to the naked eye and mixed with a faint golden halo, burst forth from his mouth, scorching and slightly distorting the air within several meters in front of him.

He smacked his lips, like a gourmet who had just savored a delicacy, and lazily commented, "The appetizer was so-so, but the fragrance of the Yellow Springs Flower is really strong and invigorating."

Shen Xuan and Su Qingyue, who were standing to the side, both twitched at the corners of their mouths.

Refreshing and invigorating?

That thing almost melted their Divine Souls away!

However, Chen Fan's next words made their hearts jump into their throats again.

He seemed to just remember something, scratched his head, and added, "Oh, right, that big guy with three eyes just now, he didn't seem very well-behaved."

"The path we're on is probably not a path to survival."

Upon hearing this, Shen Xuan and Su Qingyue's expressions changed slightly.

Not a way out?!

Su Qingyue reacted the fastest. Before she could even question anyone, she immediately closed her eyes and unleashed her boundless Mental Power, probing forward relentlessly.

However, after her Mental Power extended for a hundred meters, it vanished like a mud ox sinking into the sea, completely swallowed up by a chaotic and lifeless force.

She suddenly opened her eyes, a rare look of seriousness appearing on her usually cold and beautiful face. "Ahead... my Mental Power can't detect it at all, it seems to be a dead end."

"A dead end?" Shen Xuan frowned, his voice low and serious. "Then we must immediately turn back and choose a different path..."

"Trouble."

Chen Fan impatiently interrupted him, his two dark eyes fixed on Shen Xuan.

"If you've taken the wrong path, just take another one."

"Since there's no road ahead..." he shrugged matter-of-factly, "Then I'll just forge one, won't that solve the problem?"

What?!

To forge a path?!

Shen Xuan and Su Qingyue were completely stunned.

However, before the two could recover from this fantastical remark, Chen Fan had already strode to the end of the passage with his hands behind his back.

It was a thick, sheer cliff made of an unknown black crystal, unique to the Soul-Devouring Abyss.

On the sheer cliff, countless eerie runes are naturally formed, like tiny black holes, devouring all the light and energy around them, exuding an aura of eternal death.

"Watch closely."

Chen Fan turned around and grinned at the two people who were completely dumbfounded.

"That's what you call clearing the way."

As he finished speaking, he slowly raised his fair and delicate right fist, which looked harmless.

In that instant, the Golden Qi and Blood surging within his body, like a vast ocean, instantly coalesced.

Then.

He thrust out a punch horizontally.

Rumble!!

Under the gaze of Shen Xuan and Su Qingyue, whose pupils suddenly contracted, stood the indestructible black crystal wall, along with the thick rock layer behind it, which stretched for who knows how many meters.

A huge gap was instantly chiseled out.
