Ch. 321It Really Was a Trap
The Three Evils followed the Nether Ancestor’s reassembling corpse upward and were caught when Huang’s trap activated, binding them alongside the corpse. Ao Lie reached the cavern but stayed outside, leaving the Three Evils trapped as the story ended.
- The Three Evils returned to the iron door, found the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon waiting below, and went back to the cavern rather than risk passing it.
- The Nether Ancestor’s claws broke their chains, rejoined the body, and absorbed the Netherworld Black Lotus before opening a passage upward.
- The Three Evils followed the corpse through the iron door and entered a cavern where the Nether Ancestor’s head joined its body.
- Huang’s trap activated, binding the Nether Ancestor and the Three Evils in chains that stopped their cultivation and Qi and blood.
- Ao Lie reached the cavern entrance, noticed something was wrong, and watched from the tunnel without being caught by the trap.
