"No wonder the powerful figures who broke in before didn't try to open all the hatches; there was no opportunity at all!"
Lin Heng was slightly disappointed. He had spent a lot of effort opening all the hatches, only to find a dozen or so useless battle axes in the end. It was a huge loss!
Just as Lin Heng was walking towards the steps at the end of the corridor, intending to leave, a sudden change occurred!
There was no hatch on one side of the staircase entrance, but suddenly a hatch appeared out of nowhere and opened automatically without Lin Heng having to push it!
At the same time, the previously unobstructed staircase entrance was blocked by an iron gate that suddenly fell down!
Lin Heng could guess that all the cabin doors on both sides of the corridor must have been opened, triggering some kind of restrictive mechanism, which caused this abnormal situation.
"Looks like it wasn't a wasted effort!"
Lin Heng stepped back slightly and looked behind the hatch on one side of the staircase.
This very secluded cabin was much more spacious than the cabins on either side of the corridor.
There was another zombie inside, its appearance was the same as the other zombies, only slightly larger.
Moreover, it wasn't wielding a battle axe, but a broadsword!
call!
It charged out of the cabin with a ferocious aura!
Lin Heng still chose to confront them head-on!
Lin Heng couldn't destroy this stronger zombie with a single punch, but after a few more punches, it couldn't take it anymore!
"At most, just a minor boss on the Netherworld Ship!"
After finishing off the zombie, Lin Heng felt no pride whatsoever. He sheathed his greatsword and walked back into the spacious cabin.
Inside this cabin, Lin Heng finally made another discovery.
It was a specially made blood jade tablet, engraved with some peculiar patterns.
Lin Heng wasn't sure whether those patterns were talismans or some kind of script.
He had a gut feeling that this blood jade pendant, which looked somewhat like an identity jade pendant, must be of great use!
This intuition was not unfounded, because the faint blood-red light emanating from the blood jade tablet was extremely similar to the blood-red light emanating from the entire Netherworld Ship when viewed from the outside!
"Good!"
Lin Heng was secretly pleased with himself.
Other powerful individuals wouldn't bother opening all the hatches on both sides of the corridor when they arrive here, since they can simply leave along the stairs at the end of the corridor to explore other places. But he's different; he opens those hatches very easily.
Stepping out of the cabin, Lin Heng pushed open the iron door at the top of the stairs and walked down the stairs.
The remnants of the Three Evils can also be found on this staircase, which is about twenty feet high.
On that isolated island in the Yellow Springs Sea, Kou Yan, the leader of the Saint Alliance, is inspecting the dilapidated Holy Array.
As a Supreme Saint Realm expert, Kou Yan's perception was naturally very strong; he could sense the various residual auras here.
"The way this sacred formation is set up is quite peculiar!"
Kou Yan was very meticulous and adept at deducing useful information from details that ordinary people would not notice.
" The Three Evils... their identities have clearly changed. They came directly to the Netherworld Sea instead of going elsewhere; they must have something to do with it!"
"Could they be here for the Netherworld Ship?"
"The Netherworld Ship Netherworld Ship won't appear for at least 30 million years. Could it be that they can summon it ahead of time?"
Kou Yan was no ordinary expert; he was at the very top of the God Realm's pyramid, and he knew many secrets unknown to ordinary experts.
He had heard that the Netherworld Ship could be summoned in advance, and that such a thing had happened before.
"If the Three Evils and Lin Heng both board the Netherworld Ship, the situation will become quite troublesome!"
Kou Yan knew that even Supreme Saint could perish inside the Netherworld Ship!
Of course, it's only a possibility!
Most of the most Supreme Saint possess Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure; they cannot simply perish!
Kou Yan flew away from the isolated island.
It didn't take long for him to find the Netherworld Ship!
"I've really been possessed!"
Kou Yan sneered.
It's unlikely that a normal contemporary cultivator would know the method to summon the Netherworld Ship in advance; even he, the leader of the Saint Alliance, didn't know how.
Therefore, he concluded that Liu Ling'er and the other two had been possessed, and by three ancient evil cultivators!
Whoosh!
Kou Yan sped across the sea and disappeared into a hole in the blink of an eye!
Deep within the Netherworld Ship.
Inside a large cabin, the Three Evils were fighting fiercely.
There are a large number of ghosts and powerful beings from the Yellow Springs who have lost their self-awareness here, and they are all very powerful!
Besides them, there is also a group of powerful zombies here, each of whom has combat power no weaker than an ordinary Great Saint!
The reason they chose to fight them to the death here is because the Three Evils discovered a pool of blood here, and in the pool there is an extremely evil black lotus!
Anyone could see that the black lotus was no ordinary item, and even the blood in the blood pool was of great value!
Especially for evil cultivators like the Three Evils, that pool of blood and the black lotus are of even greater significance; they absolutely must obtain them!
They all possess powerful physiques and Nirvana Soul Flame, making them fearless of the ghosts here and unaffected by illusions. However, among the Yellow Springs experts here, there are beings at the Supreme Saint Realm!
Even though they lost their self-awareness long ago, the Yellow Springs experts at the Supreme Saint Realm are still incredibly powerful!
What's more, there's also a team of nearly thirty powerful zombie warriors here!
They all possessed the cultivation level of the Great Saint Realm in their lifetime, and their scales were extremely sturdy, even high-grade Saint Artifact could not harm them!
Neither the Evil Thearch nor the Evil Venerable had reached the Great Saint Realm; they could barely protect themselves here, and the Evil Emperor alone was the only one to fight the enemy.
The Saint Artifact and magical treasures were almost useless, and the Evil Emperor unleashed more than a dozen clusters of heavenly fire obtained from the Heavenly Gate World to launch a fierce attack.
Heavenly Fire has an extremely strong restraining effect on Yin and Evil. It was with the help of more than a dozen Heavenly Fires that the Evil Emperor was able to fight against many and contend with the Supreme Saint Realm Yellow Springs who had lost his self-awareness!
The Evil Emperor was somewhat annoyed. If the Evil Thearch and the Evil Venerable were also at the Great Saint Realm, this battle would have been much easier.
She tried time and again to force her way to the blood pool under the cover of a dozen or so celestial flames, but each time she failed!
The powerful being from the Yellow Springs Supreme Saint Realm remained steadfastly by the blood pool. Despite having lost his self-awareness, he stayed close to the blood pool, clearly under some kind of control.
This is not just the Evil Emperor's guess!
As she repeatedly approached the blood pool, her consciousness was frequently invaded by a special force!
That special power can strike directly at the soul, and the greatest weakness of the strong in the Yellow Springs Sea is that their soul power is not strong enough. In addition, without powerful magic treasures to protect them, their souls are more easily lost.
The Three Evils are different; they all possess the Nirvana Soul Flame!
If it weren't for such a powerful and unique resource, they wouldn't dare to force their way into the Netherworld Ship, much less venture so deep into this place!
Unfortunately, their Nirvana Soul Flame cannot be used to launch a physical attack; after merging with their current Saint Soul, it can only serve to protect their souls.
Unable to easily take away the black lotus, the Evil Emperor began to diligently clear away the surrounding obstacles.
