Exploring the Mysterious Underground Capital
"Empress of Nine Snake Island, what brings you here?"
Although Yan Luotian was wary of Boa Hancock's strength, he had no choice but to step forward and ask questions, otherwise he, as the head of a sect, would lose too much face.
"I have my reasons for coming here; you fools, get out of here at once!"
After Boa Hancock flew ashore, he pointed at the Yan Luotian with one hand, tilted his head back, and struck an extremely arrogant pose.
"Damn it! How dare you look down on my sect!" Yan Luotian roared in fury, unleashing his full Dou Qi once more. "Boa Hancock, this is the territory of my Yan Luo Empire! You have no right to act so presumptuously here. If you know what's good for you, leave at once!"
The scene instantly became tense. The forces of the Goose Yan Luo Empire and the Nine Snake Pirates on the shore were also ready for battle, waiting for their leaders to give the order to engage in a fierce fight.
Yan Luotian was also somewhat apprehensive, after all, the Empress of Nine Snake Island was a Nine-Star Dou Zong, and with his strength, he was no match for her in a one-on-one fight.
"Fragrant Foot"
Just then, Boa Hancock suddenly moved. In a flash, she broke away from the pirate ship and rushed to Yan Luotian's side, delivering a fierce flying kick.
Yan Luotian's pupils shrank drastically. He hurriedly circulated his Dou Qi and stretched out his right arm to block. However, the moment his arm touched the woman's leg, it instantly turned to stone and shattered into pieces on the ground with a crack.
"My arm!" Yan Luotian was stunned by the other party's methods, clutching his severed arm in shock.
He had witnessed the petrification ability before, because he had fought against Queen Medusa and only needed to use his Dou Qi to dispel that energy. But he never expected that Boa Hancock's petrification ability would be even more direct than Queen Medusa's, crippling one of his arms with just one contact.
"Empress of Nine Snake Island, you've gone too far! How could you be so ruthless? You don't deserve to be called a strong person."
The many powerful figures of the Yan Luo Empire, seeing that Boa Hancock had crippled Yan Luotian's arm with a single move, were so frightened that they took dozens of steps back, pointed their fingers, and unanimously condemned and criticized her.
Although they couldn't beat this woman, they wouldn't lose face, so they all turned into keyboard warriors and trolls, relentlessly attacking Boa Hancock.
When Boa Hancock was scolded by these people, she immediately put on a pitiful look. With her big, watery eyes, she stared at everyone and said, "I know I was wrong, but whatever I did, I will be forgiven, because I am truly as beautiful as an angel!"
"Right!"
"Empress Majesty, I love you."
In an instant, all the trolls standing opposite Boa Hancock had hearts in their eyes, completely captivated and losing their composure.
Yan Luotian seemed to be under the spell of this Charm Technique, completely forgetting his destroyed arm and revealing a lecherous face. But the next moment, he hurriedly bit his tongue to forcefully calm himself down.
After a brief stalemate, Yan Luotian finally chose to compromise and allowed the Nine Snake Pirates to enter the territory of the Yan Luo Empire.
The Snake-People also gradually came ashore, landing in large numbers on the territory of the Yan Luo Empire. Led by Boa Hancock, they sped towards the capital of the Goosefall Kingdom.
"Ah, welcome to the Empress of Nine Snake Island! I am Yan Tianxing, Emperor of the Yan Luo Empire."
"Go away and play somewhere else." Hancock had no time to pay attention to these people. As soon as she arrived in the capital of the Yan Luo Empire, she headed straight for the palace.
"You..." Yan Tianxing, the ruler of a country, was furious, but seeing that even Yan Luotian was no match for the Empress of Nine Snake Island, he could only obediently swallow his anger.
"It should be down here." Boa Hancock arrived at the palace of the Yan Luo Empire. With a wave of her hand, she destroyed the magnificent palace in front of her, which made Yan Luotian suppress his anger.
After the palace was destroyed, thousands of Snake-People, led by Mo Bass, began to carry out large-scale construction on the palace's foundation, as if they were digging for something.
Their actions aroused the curiosity of many, who wondered what they were doing traveling such a long distance to this place. Were they planning to build a new palace here?
"Your Empress, what are you doing?" Emperor Yan Tianxing of Yanluo was very puzzled. After bolstering his courage, he approached the other party again and asked.
"Excavate the Underground Capital here," Boa Hancock replied calmly.
"Underground Capital?"
Everyone was puzzled. Could it be that a mysterious capital city was hidden beneath the Yanluo Imperial Palace?
"That's right. I vaguely remember that in ancient times, there was a very powerful kingdom in this location. However, times have changed, and the main city of this kingdom has been completely buried. Today, I am here to excavate the Underground Capital hidden here."
"Hiss!" Everyone was captivated by this astonishing secret, unaware that such a historical site existed beneath the Yanluo Imperial Palace.
Yan Tianxing and Yan Luotian were also dumbfounded. It turned out that the two brothers had been sleeping on the Golden Mountain all their lives without knowing it!
As the Snake-People continued digging, they finally unearthed a large pit when they reached a depth of 100 meters.
Through this enormous pit, everyone saw a warm beam of light shooting up from the ground. The underground city inside was brightly lit, and the buildings inside were incredibly tall, as if they were the dwelling places of giants hundreds of meters tall.
The Snake-People did not stop and continued digging, finally uncovering an underground passage over a hundred meters wide.
Boa Hancock also leaped and rushed towards the intersection.
"Why don't we... go and take a look too?" Seeing the Ancient Ruins right in front of them, everyone guessed that there must be some amazing treasures inside. For a moment, they didn't care about the danger and jumped down like dumplings.
As soon as they jumped down, they were all stunned. Although the city of giants was underground, it was as bright as day, and it contained countless buildings that they had never seen before in their lives.
Yan Luotian looked around inside, then finally fixed his gaze on a huge tower. On the tower was an exceptionally large plaque with the words "Land of Light" written on it.
"How strange! The ancient script is exactly the same as the modern script." Yan Luotian looked puzzled, but the allure of exploring the treasure kept him from giving it much thought.
The group wandered around this underground city, taking in the sights like tourists. They quickly visited various unique sites, including the Warrior Headquarters, the Space Security Agency, the Ultra School, the Ultra Dojo, the Space Intelligence Bureau Space Garrison, the Space Garrison, and the Seven Nebula Branches. However, they did not find a single living creature, nor did they find any pills or treasures to enhance their cultivation.
"What kind of Ancient Ruins these? There's not a single thing left!" someone muttered angrily, but then they saw a lot of people running towards the main temple that Boa Hancock had headed towards.
The main hall ahead is even more magnificent and splendid.
"My God, what kind of race is this? It's so tall!"
Upon entering the main hall, one is greeted by thousands upon thousands of giant stone statues. The statues are quite peculiar, as their heads are unlike those of humans, with their eyes resembling two enormous duck eggs. Some of these statues are two or three hundred meters tall, and some are even taller. They are so lifelike that it seems as if they were once alive.
The main hall contains many strange Energy Bar, numbering over a thousand, each with different functions. There are Energy Bar for high-speed flight, Energy Bar for spatial jumps, and many for healing and absorption/enhancement. Judging from the labels, they are all disposable items.
Yan Luotian and the others knew that these Energy Bar must be good things, so they hurriedly collected some and put them into their Storage Ring. This scene was witnessed by Boa Hancock.
"Mo Bass, guard the main hall gate and don't let anyone in. These resources belong to Nine Snake Island, and no one is allowed to take a single one now," Boa Hancock suddenly commanded.
"Yes, sir!" Upon receiving the Empress's order, the Snake-People leader Mo Bass, immediately organized his Snake-People and began driving away the outsiders who were entering the palace.
Some people who were unwilling to leave were beaten up by these Snake-People and could only leave in silence.
Yan Luotian was not afraid of the insignificant Mo Bass at all, but he was restrained by Hancock's strength and feared that this terrifying woman would attack him again, so he could only endure this humiliation.
A young man in black robes, seeing that the Snake-People wanted to seize the Energy Bar inside, knew that he could not continue exploring, so he quickly put the two Energy Bar, which had the functions of high-speed flight and spatial jump, into his Storage Ring.
"You brat, hand over the stuff!" Seeing that the black-robed youth had taken one, Mo Bass immediately punched him, unleashing all his power at the Peak Dou Wang without mercy, determined to turn him into mincemeat and make an example of him for the others.
A cold glint flashed in the black-robed youth's eyes, and he also threw a punch, his fist engulfed in fierce flames, colliding with Mo Bass's.
"You're a five- Dou Wang?" Both men retreated a few steps. Mo Bass, having gained no advantage from the other, glanced at the young man with surprise and said, "Reaching the Dou Wang realm at such a young age, it seems you have quite a bit of talent. What's your name?"
The young man in the black robe, nicknamed "Yan Xiao," answered coldly.
Mo Bass chuckled, guessing the other person had given him a false name. He didn't pay much attention, casually tossing a few absorbable Energy Bar to the other person, saying, "Hurry up and leave. If Her Empress gets angry, you won't be able to leave."
"Thank you," the black-robed youth said quietly, carefully putting away the Energy Bar. He then lowered his voice, expressed his gratitude, and quickly left the main hall.
