Yin Fire Altar

As far as he knew, the Qi Sea Space above the Martial Saint realm was extremely solid, and even if a person died, the Qi Sea Space would still exist for a short time.

Now that he has the True Qi of the Yan Mu Sheng, he might be able to open his Qi Sea Space by simulating it with Spiritual Qi.

Previously, these three had collected a lot of treasures and the Heaven and Earth Power from the Black Abyss Cave, which should all be stored in their Qi Sea Space.

Then, without making a sound, he put the corpse into his spatial storage.

Seeing everyone's gazes turn to him, Lin Yi explained, "After all, they are people of my Ancient Domain. Once we leave, we should erect a monument and bury them properly. We cannot leave their remains here."

Everyone nodded, not thinking much of it, only feeling that this Deputy Prefecture Lord Qin was thoughtful and kind.

Since there were no strange beasts lurking in the vicinity, Lin Yi did not disturb any of them after retrieving the corpse.

The five then descended and discovered that there were still signs of a battle on the rock face.

It seems that Yan Mu Sheng was chased up from below by the enemy and then killed in close combat.

Just then, Qin Qiongyi seemed to hear something and suddenly said, "Buyi, there are many strange beasts below."

Lin Yi raised an eyebrow; he hadn't sensed anything.

"Many strange beasts? How far are they from here?"

"It's about three thousand meters high. As for the number of strange beasts, they are endless. We should have reached the bottom."

Qin Qiongyi reached out and touched the rock wall. After carefully sensing it for a moment, his fingers flashed with light, and he used his True Qi to draw a line drawing of the scene three thousand meters below.

Below, the vertical cave walls transformed into something resembling the roots of a large tree, with a complex network of hundreds or even thousands of passages.

Each of these root paths is inhabited by a large number of strange beasts.

Kun Changkong, resting his chin on his hand, said, "So this is what the depths of the Black Abyss Cave are like. It looks like a giant tree with an extremely long trunk that reaches the sky."

Qian Wujiang chimed in, "It really does look like it. The very bottom is the root of a large tree, and the part we've been descending from is the trunk. The winding wind tunnel we passed earlier looks like a forked branch..."

"We've descended over 10,000 meters. What kind of tree could grow that tall? And why has the tree disappeared...?"

"Gentlemen, the problem right now isn't the trees, but what to do with these strange beasts? If we need to kill them, I, Zhao, can block them below and slaughter them to my heart's content."

As he spoke, Zhao Wudi opened the box behind him, and ten small weapons that shimmered with different colors slowly floated out and hovered around him. These weapons included swords, spears, halberds, and lances, exuding an extreme sense of aggression.

Lin Yi looked at these weapons with some surprise. With his eyesight, he could naturally tell that each of these weapons was carefully forged by Master Craftsman and could be considered a top-grade Martial Dao Spirit Treasure, with quality comparable to a rare treasure.

Ten inferior magical artifacts, yet their value is comparable to that of Demigod Artifact; this Zhao Wudi is quite wealthy.

Qian Wujiang looked at Lin Yi and asked, "What are Deputy Prefecture Lord Qin's thoughts?"

Lin Yi is now a true Squad Leader.

Lin Yi thought for a moment and said, "From what we can see, these strange beasts were originally entrenched at the bottom of the Black Abyss Cave Black Abyss Cave. We don't know why they broke out of the cave. We didn't come down here to kill the beasts; we want to find out why. Secondly, it's still unknown whether the enemy who attacked Yan Mu Sheng was a beast or a living person. To be able to break a treasure in battle, this enemy's physical body must be extremely terrifying..."

"Let's continue to infiltrate covertly. If we can avoid being exposed, we should avoid it altogether..."

Qin Qiongyi nodded in support. "Deputy Prefecture Lord Qin is the most reliable, I agree."

Although she is Eight-Realm Martial Saint, the Domain she controls is not good for killing or disturbing strange beasts, which is naturally an extremely difficult plan for her.

After Lin Yi spoke, Zhao Wudi did not insist any further. He gestured with his fingers several times, summoning the suspended killing weapon into the box.

Soon, led by Lin Yi, the group descended another three thousand meters.

Upon arriving here, it truly felt like reaching the very bottom of the Black Abyss Cave. Countless passages branched out in all directions, and many fluorescent plants grew there, creating what appeared to be an underground world.

Qian Wujiang extended his senses and asked in confusion, "Why don't I see any strange beasts?"

Qin Qiongyi explained, "Within the soil layers of the cave walls, I sensed them through their subtle breathing vibrations."

"So, these layers of soil are full of strange beasts?"

Qin Qiongyi nodded. "Judging from their condition, they seem to be in a deep slumber, unlike the strange beasts that climbed out of the Black Abyss Cave."

At this moment, Kun Changkong, through his ' Kun Earth ' perception, hurriedly said, "Everyone, I have discovered a special place."

The group stepped onto a side path and arrived at the place he had mentioned.

In the distance, on the open, rocky ground, stood a towering eighteen-story altar.

Inside the tower, each floor flickered with a shimmering light, like eerie will-o'-the-wisps.

Qin Qiongyi exclaimed in surprise, "An altar? It seems to have been built by humans."

Qian Wujiang knowledge, shook his head. "I have seen this architectural style in Ancient Domain texts, but whether it was built by humans is still unknown."

"But I speculate that those who like to build altars are mostly Divine Sacrifice Profession, but nowadays most Divine Sacrifice Legacy on the continent have been destroyed, and a small number are in the wild villages, controlled by sinners. Perhaps this altar was left behind when the Divine Sacrifice Profession was thriving on the continent."

At this moment, Lin Yi asked Qian Wujiang, "As far as I know, the Ancient Secret Realm has always been in the hands of the Ancient Domain. Even though the Divine Sacrifice Profession was popular for a period of time, there shouldn't be any Divine Sacrifice buildings in this secret realm."

"Deputy Prefect Qin, you may not know this, but although the Ancient Secret Realm is controlled by the Ancient Domain, in the past, there was more than one entrance to the Ancient Secret Realm. It is said that back then, warriors from the Ancient Domain fought against both the Divine Sacrifice and the Sequencer in the Ancient Secret Realm, all for the sake of seizing the Heaven and Earth Power..."

"I see."

Lin Yi nodded, his doubts gone.

Kun Changkong asked, "Everyone, would you like to move forward and take a look?"

Lin Yi hadn't found the thing that killed the Yan Mu Sheng and wasn't planning to take any risks. Now that Kun Changkong had volunteered, he nodded and said, "Brother Kun, since you control ' Kun Earth,' I assume you won't disturb the strange beasts beneath the soil. But it's better to be careful. This is Tongguan Treasure, so you should bring it to protect yourself."

Kun Changkong did not refuse Lin Yi's gift of the Seventeen Tong Pass Treasure for protection.

He laughed heartily, "Don't worry, I haven't done much along the way. Now it's my turn to show off my skills."

Kun Changkong stepped into the void, releasing the power of ' Kun Earth ', and in one step he strode a thousand feet, directly landing in the eighteen-story Yin Fire Altar building.

Once his figure disappeared into the altar building, no one could sense his presence anymore.

However, judging from the flickering shadows on the floors, it seems that he is carefully climbing the floors step by step.

Kun Changkong moved very fast, and in just half a minute, he arrived at the highest floor of the altar.

There were many miscellaneous items on this floor. Kun Changkong searched among them for a while and finally seemed to find something, clutching it in his hand.

But at that moment, the pupils of everyone outside the altar suddenly contracted.

Through the flickering, cold light of the eerie fire, they discovered a strange figure suddenly appearing behind Kun Changkong, who was standing on the eighteenth floor.

The figure raised its large hand high, accompanied by a whooshing sound powerful enough to Void Breaking Domain, and slapped it towards Kun Changkong's head.

"Brother Kun, be careful!"
