Tong Pass Damaged

Upon hearing the exclamation, Kun Changkong suddenly turned his head and realized that there was a figure behind him who had appeared at some point.

Not good!

The strange figure was moving too fast for him to react at all.

Just as Kun Changkong's head was about to be smashed, the Twelfth Tong Pass treasure that Lin Yi had left him for protection hummed and emitted a dazzling light, blocking it behind him.

The enormous tremor spread outwards, and at that moment, the sound was like a booming bell, resounding throughout the heavens and earth.

The next moment, the light of the Tongguan Treasure dimmed instantly, and the Artifact Spirit let out a wail as it was heavily slapped away, like a streak of light being smashed out of the sky.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Kun Changkong used his teleportation ability to instantly return to Lin Yi and the others.

"Hiss! That was terrifying! I didn't sense the enemy at all... Thank goodness for Deputy Prefect Qin. If it weren't for your treasure protecting me, I'd probably be dead down there..."

Kun Changkong was still shaken, and after the god came over, he looked at Lin Yi with gratitude.

"It's alright, Brother Kun, what did you discover just now?"

As he asked the question, Lin Yi summoned the Tongguan Treasure. There, on Tong Pass, was a clear and deep palm print.

The palm print had neat and smooth edges, and every line was clearly visible. It was several inches deep inside the iron furnace, which made Lin Yi feel particularly heartbroken.

It seems unlikely that he will be able to defend the Twelfth Tong Pass anytime soon.

However, what exactly was that strange figure? It managed to smash his Tongguan Treasure like this with a single palm strike...?

At this moment, far away on the Ancient Domain border of the Twelfth Tong Pass, the thousand-foot-tall city wall suddenly shook, and then the bricks and stones on the wall shattered and fell, revealing a huge palm print on the city wall.

Upon seeing this, the city's garrison commander Yan Qiang was Yan Qiang alarmed and hurriedly reported to Du Bu Sheng, who was stationed here.

Du Bu Sheng arrived on his sword, his silver hair flowing. Upon seeing the enormous handprint on the wall, he frowned and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you. It's most likely that something went wrong with the Tongguan Treasure in Town Guardian Qin's possession. The city wall is connected to the aura of the Tongguan Treasure..."

Beneath the Black Abyss Cave, within the small world created by Lin Yi Yi's Qiankun Power, everyone looked solemnly at the scene where a large number of strange beasts had broken out of the ground due to the commotion just now.

At this moment, the earth trembled violently, and a muffled rumbling sound came from the depths of the ground, like ten thousand thunderclaps.

The once smooth ground was now being torn apart as if by an invisible giant hand, with cracks spreading rapidly like a grotesque spider web.

The next moment, from all directions, countless Toad Louse Exotic Beast shook off the rubble and roared out.

These Toad Louse Exotic Beast were covered in jet-black scales, emitting a cold, eerie light in the dim underground, their crimson eyes constantly scanning their surroundings.

Kun Changkong frowned. "Too many, far too many! It seems all the strange beasts underground have been alerted!"

Qin Qiongyi sensed the frequency of the ground tremors and exclaimed in alarm, "At least 123,000! That's the number of beasts I can sense!"

Seeing that the strange beasts were only wandering around, Qian Wujiang sighed, "Fortunately, Deputy Prefect Qin controls 'Qiankun'. Even if the strange beasts run rampant and go crazy, they won't be able to find us."

"Oh no! The figure that attacked me just now seems to still be inside the altar! Look, everyone!"

At this moment, Kun Changkong suddenly pointed forward, and on the eighteenth level of the Yin Fire Altar, a blurry, illusory figure was looking in their direction.

What made everyone uneasy and strange was that although the strange figure's features were indistinct, the gaze it cast sent chills down their spines.

It gives you the feeling of prey being targeted by its predator.

Zhao Wudi turned his head and asked, "Kun Changkong, what did you find inside the altar just now?"

"A Parchment Scroll with writing I've never seen before, almost completely crumbled to dust. I've sealed it away with my power. Would you all like to see it?"

As he spoke, Kun Changkong took out a Parchment Scroll, which was wrapped in a layer of ' Kun Earth ' Domain power that protected the scroll.

After a brief observation, Zhao Wudi handed it to Qian Wujiang, saying, "It's Divine Sacrifice script, I don't recognize it."

After reading it, Qian Wujiang shook his head. "It's too ancient. It's the earliest form of Divine Sacrifice script. I've never seen it before."

"Let me see."

Lin Yi took the sheepskin and raised an eyebrow.

He had once learned some ancient characters from the Old Village Chief Gu Tianci, and now these characters seemed very familiar.

As the group studied the Parchment Scroll, they saw the strange figure on the high altar slowly descend.

Thump! Thump!

It sounded like footsteps on stone steps. Every time the strange figure descended a floor, the drifting eerie flames on the entire floor would vanish with a whoosh and then converge into the strange figure's body.

Upon reaching the ground and stepping into the hard rock and soil, the strange figure was covered in ghostly faces and yin fire. More importantly, the strange figure's features had solidified, bearing a three-tenths resemblance to Kun Changkong. As for the other resemblances, it resembled Jin Hong, the Yan Mu Sheng, and the Eight-Realm Ancestor of the Tai Shang Family.

Kun Changkong felt a chill run down his spine. "What the hell is this thing?!"

Suddenly, the strange figure grinned and made a throat-slitting gesture towards the group. The next moment, countless Toad Louse Exotic Beast from the ground seemed to sense something and swarmed towards the Small World where Lin Yi and the others were hiding.

"Oh no! This thing can control strange beasts. With it guiding us, we can't hide!"

In the blink of an eye, Toad Louse Exotic Beast appeared, completely surrounding the open space around the altar.

"Let me!"

Zhao Wudi's eyes were like torches as he stepped forward. His aura suddenly surged, and the weapons in the box behind him shot out like arrows, killing the large number of Toad Louse Exotic Beast that rushed in from all directions.

The killing intent carried by the weapons permeated the entire space.

Sizzle!

A longsword, its body a deep blue, carrying ultimate sword intent, transformed into a streak of cold light, instantly piercing through more than ten Toad Louse; a black longsword, hundreds of feet long, slashed down, instantly causing the earth to cave in, and wherever the blade's energy passed, all the Toad Louse were reduced to fragments and powder; a silver whip whistled through the air, drawing an arc, whipping the strange beasts in its wake, leaving them with torn flesh. Several smaller Toad Louse tried to dodge, but were tightly bound by the whip and instantly shredded into pieces, blood mist spreading...

Zhao Wudi's dozen or so weapons were all unstoppable, reaping swarms of Toad Louse Exotic Beast.

Qian Wujiang and Kun Changkong both praised, "Brother Zhao, what skill!"

But Zhao Wudi shook his head and frowned, saying, "These strange beasts are more than twice as strong as those outside Profound Wind Treasure Valley, both in terms of physical defense and speed. Everyone, please be careful later."

"Good..."

Subsequently, Qian Wujiang and Kun Changkong also stepped out of the void and joined the battle to kill the Toad Louse Exotic Beast.

One person used ' Qian Heaven ' and the other used ' Kun Earth '. With their cooperation, countless strange beasts rushed into their Real Domain and were instantly crushed by the pressure of the heavens and the Domain as soon as they entered.
