Uninvited Guest!

"Now that we've found the source of the turmoil in this Primordial Ancient Mine, I, your ancestor, will go and investigate."

Upon hearing the news brought back by the Exiled Sword Immortal, Qi Pojun, the Third Ancestor of the Taichu Sacred Land, transformed into a stream of light and entered the Primordial Ancient Mine.

"Ancestor, wait for this junior!"

The Exiled Sword Immortal quickly summoned his Flying Sword and followed closely behind Qi Pojun.

Deep within the Primordial Ancient Mine, the corpses of Elders and disciples of the Taiyi Holy Land lay scattered haphazardly on the ground.

The corpses were faintly emanating a black mist.

Xikong, the number one genius of the Taiyi Holy Land who was leading the team, was pale and covered in sweat, his Dao Artifact- level Sun God Bird Daoist Robe was torn.

A Golden Crow furnace floated beside Xikong.

"The Black-Rank Supreme Treasure of the Taiyi Holy Land — the Golden Crow Heaven-Refining Furnace!"

"Wait, there are three cracks on the body of the Golden Crow Heaven-Refining Furnace. What exactly happened here?"

When the teams from Taihua Sacred Ground, Guanghan Holy Land, and Taiji Holy Land arrived, they were also horrified to discover the miserable state of the Taiyi Holy Land team.

Even Great Expert from the Taiyi Holy Land, carrying Black-Rank Supreme Treasures, nearly perished.

Xikong's eyes were still filled with extreme fear. "An unknown being possessed a disciple of the Taichu Sacred Land and infiltrated the Primordial Ancient Mine. I was no match for him at all. If it weren't for the Golden Crow Heaven-Refining Furnace restraining his True Qi, I probably wouldn't have escaped this calamity either..."

"Hiss..."

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines.

The terrifying being who nearly wiped out the entire Taiyi Holy Land team single-handedly is probably even more Dao cultivation than the Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python.

The most terrifying thing is that even Xikong, who fought against him, did not know his origins.

"Why would such a being intrude into this Primordial Ancient Mine? This aura seems so familiar..."

Lu Changsheng sensed that the black aura emanating from the Elders and disciples of the Taiyi Holy Land was unusual.

"This Evil Qi bears some resemblance to the Evil Spirit suppressed at the Azure Emperor's Mausoleum. Could it be the work of the Evil Spirit? Last time, the Evil Spirit was severely injured and escaped by Xu Grand Tutor of the Imperishable Immortal Dynasty, but now even Xikong is at the Immortality Realm, is no match for Evil Spirit..."

Lu Changsheng felt a chill run down his spine upon closer examination.

The Evil Spirit's recovery speed far exceeded Lu Changsheng's expectations.

It took five Primordial Human Race Emperors working together to suppress the Evil Spirit back then.

Once the Evil Spirit regains its former glory, it will likely be invincible in the Three Realms.

"Woof! Master, it seems to be the aura of Evil Spirit emerging from the Azure Emperor's Mausoleum!"

The Daoist Tuquan barked.

The Three-Eyed Divine Hound Race keen sense of smell, detected the presence of the Evil Spirit, just like Lu Changsheng.

"What did you say? The Azure Emperor's Mausoleum? Evil Spirit?"

The people from the Five Great Innate Sacred Lands, including Xikong and Zhao Yu, were all numb.

The Primordial Evil Spirit that was suppressed in the Azure Emperor's Mausoleum did not die, but was reborn!

How could they possibly deal with such ancient beings?

"No wonder you sent the Exiled Sword Immortal to ask the ancestor of the Taichu Sacred Land for help. You, to be able to deduce the future in a place like the Primordial Ancient Mine where the Time Principle are chaotic, are truly terrifying."

Zhao Yu held Lu Changsheng in even higher regard.

The flow of time deep within the Primordial Ancient Mine is several times faster than the outside world, and in the deepest parts it can even reach more than ten times the speed of the outside world. The Spacetime Principle are extremely chaotic. Even the Second Ancestor and the Third Ancestor could not scan the entire Primordial Ancient Mine with their powerful Divine Senses, and they had to send Elders and disciples into the depths of the ancient mine to find out the source of the turmoil.

Using the Spacetime Principle to predict the future is even more difficult here.

From Zhao Yu's perspective, Lu Changsheng's advance arrangement for the Exiled Sword Immortal to return and seek help clearly indicates that he foresaw something.

"Lu Lang, shall we continue this investigation?"

Xia Ningxue knew that the Primordial Evil Spirit was not easy to deal with, so she looked at Lu Changsheng.

"The Third Ancestor should be arriving soon. Why don't we stop the Evil Spirit and wait for the Third Ancestor to arrive before eliminating it in one fell swoop?"

Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and made his decision.

"According to the records of our Taiji Holy Land, the Primordial Evil Spirit was regarded as a calamity in Remote Antiquity times. Its appearance caused the fall of countless powerful beings and the death of billions of lives. If we can restrain the Evil Spirit and wait for Senior Qi to deal with it, it will be a great Merit."

Zhao Yu also took a breath and decided to track down the Primordial Evil Spirit with Lu Changsheng and the others.

Xikong was still shaken, but he gritted his teeth and, with the Golden Crow Heaven-Refining Furnace protecting him, followed Lu Changsheng and the others.

As Lin Qingzhi followed his master, he asked, "Master, why do you think the Primordial Evil Spirit would risk being discovered by the Taichu Sacred Land to enter the Primordial Ancient Mine? Could it be that the Primordial Evil Spirit knew that the Immortal Realm was in chaos and that most of the powerful beings in the Immortal Realm who could suppress it Avatar, so it chose to break into the Primordial Ancient Mine at this time?"

Lu Changsheng glanced at Lin Qingzhi. This Eldest Disciple was always calm and resourceful; he had already realized the problem.

Lu Changsheng shook his head. "I don't know either, which is why I had to risk tracking it. Otherwise, if the Primordial Evil Spirit escaped, we wouldn't even know its purpose. The Primordial Ancient Mine is located beneath Taichu Mountain, and this is one of the few opportunities to suppress the Primordial Evil Spirit."

Lu Changsheng and his group continued to venture 100,000 feet deeper into the Primordial Ancient Mine. Here, time flowed ten times faster than outside, and the place was extremely dark and cold, making one feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.

"Strange, I've never walked through this mine tunnel before."

"Me too."

Zhao Yu and Xikong, two geniuses from the Primordial Holy Land, looked at each other in bewilderment.

The Elder Taihua Sacred Ground, Guanghan Holy Land, and other places looked at the two of them in surprise.

The Primordial Ancient Mine was jointly controlled by the Five Great Innate Sacred Lands, and the extensive network of mine tunnels was carved out by these Five Great Innate Sacred Lands over many years. Yet, there was a mine tunnel that even they were unaware of?

What exactly is his purpose?

We'll find out soon enough.

Lu Changsheng sensed the Evil Spirit's aura growing stronger and stronger, knowing he was not far from Evil Spirit.

Lu Changsheng, Lu Qinglian, Xiao Fan, and the others each had a flame in their palms, illuminating the underground space.

Suddenly, the space before them opened up to reveal an extremely spacious underground area, with a Cold Pool. An astonishing chill emanated from the bottom of the pool, the very source of Cold Pool bone-chilling cold they had felt earlier.

"Where exactly is this place?"

Where are the Primordial Evil Spirits?

The Elders of the Guanghan Holy Land, Taihua Sacred Ground, and Taiji Holy Land were all astonished.

The vastness and complexity of the Primordial Ancient Mines are breathtaking.

No one would have imagined that there was such a Cold Pool in the Primordial Ancient Mine.

Lu Changsheng tracked the demon to the edge of the Cold Pool, gazing at the bottomless, blackened water. "The Evil Spirit's aura abruptly ceased at the bottom of the Cold Pool. It seems he has dived to Cold Pool bottom, where he likely finds what he desires..."

Suddenly, ripples appeared on the calm water.

Xia Ningxue exclaimed, "Lu Lang, be careful!"

Lu Changsheng immediately created distance and summoned his Forty-Nine Battle Swords to protect himself on all sides.

Boom!

A column of water shot into the Cold Pool from the Cold Pool, and a dark shadow burst out of it.

Upon closer inspection, everyone saw that it was a disciple Sword Attire of the Taichu Sacred Land, but this disciple of the Taichu Sacred Land was emanating a terrifyingly malevolent Evil Qi.

He looked at Lu Changsheng, his eyes sharp as knives. "It's you again?"
