Fruitless 1

Gongshang Baiyu, seeing the situation was dire, forcefully spat out a mouthful of blood, using a spatial transfer to take the three of them away.

Song Danhao timely propped up a protective Demonic Light and several Array Disk formations.

But they were still battered by the extremely dense blizzard until their bodies dimmed, and their Demonic Essence was depleted by eighty percent in an instant.

Most of the protection they had erected was smashed and broken.

The three were so frightened that their souls almost scattered, and they barely managed to activate half of a Demon God Statue before leaving again.

This time, with the teleportation.

The three of them were finally surrounded by silence.

Song Danhao looked up and could vaguely see the vast, rolling Calamity Qi, like a sea of clouds.

However, in front of the Calamity Qi, there were still three Dark Gold halos, firmly blocking entry and exit.

"There are only three more checkpoints left." Gongshang Baiyu said with difficulty in a low voice, wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth, "I asked people from the Netherworld Realm, and the overall defense is divided into five defense lines and three checkpoints. We should have passed the most difficult and tight five defense lines, so this must be the three checkpoints."

Xu Ling was already regretting it a little at this point.

When she saw Gongshang Baiyu spitting blood because of her recklessness, she suddenly fell silent.

She had overestimated their trump cards and underestimated the horror of the Netherworld Realm's Nether City defenses.

"It's okay, the three checkpoints are generally used to check entry and exit documents and procedures, so it shouldn't be too troublesome." Song Danhao sighed and comforted her. "We can just teleport past them."

"Let's go after Brother Song rests for a bit," Gongshang Baiyu said softly.

"I'm afraid none of you are going anywhere."

Suddenly, a low, magnetic male voice came from in front of the three of them.

A handsome man wearing a red windbreaker, wrapped in a thick layer of yellow light, appeared in front of the three in the blink of an eye.

The man had a small goatee, his hair neatly styled, and his hands in the pockets of his windbreaker. His face also carried an expression of helplessness and laziness.

"Let me introduce myself, I am Bu La Ge, the seventh-ranked Nether General.

Song Danhao, Gongshang Baiyu, Xu Ling. Will you surrender, or should I cripple you before taking you back?"

"Nether General...!"? The moment they heard this title, the expressions of Song Danhao, Gongshang Baiyu, and Xu Ling changed drastically.

There were only ten Nether Generals in total.

Rumor has it that each one is a terrifying existence with at least the strength of a Fate Candle Earth Immortal. Only those who can withstand the Calamity Qi with their physical bodies and directly withstand attacks from fellow Earth Immortal cultivators without injury can be called Nether Generals.

This, placed outside, is almost the standard for an invincible Earth Immortal!

They had heard rumors of the Nether Generals before, but they never expected to encounter one before guarding a checkpoint!

"This is troublesome..."

Gongshang Baiyu couldn't help but begin preparing her spatial transfer Mystical Power.

"I advise you not to use spatial transfer," Bu La Ge smiled. "That won't work on me."

He had actually just come out of a small Secret Realm. Since the outbreak of the Great Calamity, many developments had rapidly changed and improved over the past dozen years.

Their first batch of disciples also experienced rapid development in strength under the influence of their Master.

He had originally planned to go out and see what the Great Calamity was like.

But unexpectedly, he had just received a notice that foreign enemies were trying to penetrate the defense checkpoints and escape the Netherworld Realm. They had already reached the first checkpoint he was guarding.

He immediately arrived at the checkpoint through the teleportation array and now saw who these so-called foreign enemies were.

"As a Fate Candle Earth Immortal, are you willing to be a mere guard of a checkpoint?" Song Danhao couldn't help but say in a low voice, feeling unwilling.

"You don't understand," Bu La Ge shook his head.

The reason their disciples' strength had improved so quickly was largely due to their Master.

Although only a few people realized this reason, all those who did regarded Lin Xin as a god.

Because many people, even if they didn't work hard to cultivate, had the feeling that as long as they went into seclusion, ordinary cultivation could become stronger, and this was only possible in the Netherworld Realm.

After understanding this, Bu La Ge decisively pulled Zhi Hong and became a loyal follower of Lin Xin. Later, Zhi Hong's illness quickly disappeared and healed due to the improvement of her strength, which also confirmed his previous guess.

"Alright, don't waste time."

Bu La Ge waved his right arm, and a burst of yellow light exploded from his hand.

In an instant, the yellow light radiated thousands of rays, flying towards the three people overwhelmingly.

This was imitating one of Lin Xin's killing moves back then, the Sword Style, but after he used the power of time to use it, the effect was a completely different type.

The speed of the yellow light flying needles was not fast, but the number was huge, like a big net, almost completely enveloping the three people.

"Go!"

Gongshang Baiyu suddenly raised a layer of white light shield, covering the other two people together, and instantly disappeared in place.

But only half a second later, the three figures actually returned to the original place. Their faces were horrified.

Boom!!!

The yellow light flying needles densely hit, each needle causing a small explosion.

In an instant, countless yellow bubble-like halos exploded directly around the three people in mid-air.

"I told you, why don't you listen?"

Bu La Ge shook his head helplessly.

"The power of time pulled you back to the space-time two seconds ago, so dodging is meaningless."

The explosion ended quickly.

Three embarrassed figures appeared in the center of the explosion.

Song Danhao held a black Demon God Statue tightly in his hand, and there were damages and blood mouths everywhere on his face, body, hands, and legs.

"Go!! I'll hold him back!"

He roared at the two women.

Gongshang Baiyu's eyes were filled with tears. At that moment of the explosion, Song Danhao stood in front of them, desperately blocking all the impact with his not-so-broad body.

"I won't leave! I'd rather die than leave!! We'll die together!"

Xu Ling beside her seemed frightened. She hadn't expected that a mere subordinate casually sent from the Netherworld Realm could beat her proud Song-dage into an injured state.

"We're no match for him, run!!" Song Danhao roared.

"Let's go! With Yao Yang-jie here, Big Brother will be fine!" Xu Ling suddenly reacted, quickly grabbed Gongshang Baiyu's small hand, and turned to fly in the opposite direction.

The two women had just turned around and hadn't flown far when they heard a loud bang behind them, followed by another loud noise.

Boom!!!

The two quickly turned their heads and saw that one of Song Danhao's arms had been blasted off. His eyes were hollow, and his whole body was smoking as he fell straight down.

"Song-dage!!!"

The two women screamed almost simultaneously.

Gongshang Baiyu turned around as if to chase back, but was pulled back by Xu Ling.

"We can't go back!" Xu Ling screamed, "Lin Sheri, if anything happens to Song-dage, I, Xu Ling, will risk my life to make sure you die without a burial place!!!" Her face was full of hatred, and tears streamed down her face like a broken string.

"Go!!"

Pfft!!

Suddenly, a yellow light pierced through her back.

Bu La Ge's figure directly appeared behind the two fleeing figures in the air. In his hand, he held a khaki-colored short sword, a sharp short blade condensed from the power of yellow time.

"Anyone can talk big, but unfortunately, you don't have the ability to make it happen..."

Bu La Ge's face darkened.

With a puff, he pulled out the short blade in his hand.

Blood splattered, tearing a large hole in Xu Ling's chest and abdomen.

She stared blankly at the red bloody hole torn open in front of her chest.

For a moment, she seemed completely unable to believe it.

Gongshang Baiyu also seemed stunned for a moment. Her face was dull as she watched this scene from the side.

Puff!

In an instant, countless yellow flying needles burst out directly from the wound on Xu Ling's body, all erupting from within her, blasting the wound even larger for the second time.

Bu La Ge's face was cold, and he kicked her hard in the waist.

Bang!

Xu Ling's entire body crashed down, bringing up a string of white air waves. Red blood splattered in all directions along the way.

"No!!!"

"Lingling!!!"

Song Danhao and Gongshang Baiyu shouted almost at the same time, rushing towards the falling Xu Ling.

Song Danhao's eyes instantly turned red. Black Qi roiled around him, as if he might go berserk at any moment.

A large, black halo rose up behind his head in a circle.

Gongshang Baiyu was surrounded by rolling white light, and the space around her actually began to boil like water under her intense emotions.

Her powerful spatial ability was already formidable, and after becoming a Gold Guard, it underwent a qualitative change. Now, under emotional excitement, it directly climbed to another level.

"Save her!!"

Song Danhao roared, accelerating towards the falling Xu Ling.

But Bu La Ge instantly donned his windbreaker, blocking his path.

Without time to think, Song Danhao threw a punch, bringing with it rolling Demonic Qi, and slammed it down hard.

Bang!!!

Demonic Qi and yellow light splashed and scattered, forming a black and yellow halo like a solar flare in mid-air.

Bu La Ge's whole body shook slightly, and he was actually knocked back a step.

A look of surprise appeared on his face.

"You can actually... make me take a step back..."

Ahhhhh!!!

Song Danhao was clearly going mad; he raised his right fist again, his eyes directly burning with heavy, black-tinged-gold Demonic Qi.

Boom!!

Another punch slammed hard into Bu La Ge's palm.

This punch was once again steadily caught, but Bu La Ge actually took another step back.

"Interesting." A look of eager interest appeared on his face.

"Every once in a while, my physical body will undergo a qualitative improvement, reaching a new level. Master named it True Spirit Nine Transformations, which can improve the body's four basic attributes. It is the strongest body cultivation technique system that he created specifically for disciples like us.

And I have now cultivated to the fourth transformation!"

He looked at Song Danhao with admiration.

"I didn't expect you to be able to make me take a step back. Even among Earth Immortals, there are few who can do that."

"Kill!!" Song Danhao seemed to have gradually lost his mind. He punched at the opponent again and again, but they were easily and steadily caught by Bu La Ge, who had become serious.

On the other side, Gongshang Baiyu had found Xu Ling, who had lost consciousness.

However, the yellow light needles that kept exploding on Xu Ling's body also injured her.

She held back her tears, hugged Xu Ling, and shouted at Song Danhao.

"Brother Song, let's go!"

"Jun Tian Devil!"

Song Danhao suddenly roared wildly, and a black Demon God Statue with a thousand arms suddenly rose up behind him.

A thousand arms stretched out instantly, in a flash, some with fists, some with palms, some with hand blades, some with finger techniques, and even hand seals, claw techniques, caresses, and other forms of moves.

Each type of move was different.
