It was totally dark in the deep cave, which was full of surging foul aura.
Chu Xun now was with the Body of Soul. He performed the Soul-calming technique and formed a piece of armor with his divine sense to protect himself.
Compared to real flesh, the soul was very fragile.
There was a pale white halo around Chu Xun, which made him look like a star in the dim cave.
The cave seemed bottomless, and Chu Xun walked all the way down.
When he reached 200 meters, he could faintly hear the clattering sounds of the chains.
Chu Xun walked deeper and deeper, and now he was about a thousand meters underground, yet, he hadn’t reached the bottom.
“How deep is this cave? Does it run through the earth?” Chu Xun wondered.
Chu Xun felt that he was more than four or five kilometers deep in the cave, but he still hadn’t reached the bottom.
No… Chu Xun suddenly stopped.
He went forward and reached out his hand to touch the cave wall, but his palm went through it.
“It’s an Illusory Formation!” Chu Xun was stunned for a moment before forcing a smile. “I’ve underestimated the Taoist tricks.”
Although Taoism declined now, the formation was still able to fool him, which showed that there was indeed something extraordinary about it.
People all worshipped Buddhism, which came from the other country. They didn’t know that local Taoism was the most powerful. They were so blind that they didn’t know what was really powerful and always thought that foreign religions were superior.
Chu Xun rushed up into the sky as if he were stepping on an invisible staircase. The purple glint in his eyes seemed to be capable of penetrating the demonic mist and prying into the essence of things.
Sure enough, he was too arrogant. He thought that the sound of chains came from the underground and took it for granted.
He was surrounded by the void, and the demonic mist was surging, all just because he was in the circumstance.
This place was so large that Chu Xun wondered how long it would take him to find the Eye of Formation.
Buzz!
Tens of thousands of Reincarnation Lines shot out in all directions, hidden in the demonic mist, wandering all over the place.
A short while later, Chu Xun’s eyes lit up. He found it, and his figure continuously grew taller.
In front of Chu Xun, a small whirlpool was slowly moving, like an eye of the sea. It was just that the whirlpool was moving so slowly that Chu Xun didn’t notice it before.
“Is this the place where the Subterranean Devils Clan is sealed?”
Chu Xun spoke in a low voice. He then took a step forward, his figure disappearing into the whirlpool.
The surroundings suddenly became so bright, and Chu Xun’s eyes were full of surprise.
“What kind of world is this?” he thought to himself.
The sky was foggy, and there was no sun. The mountains and rocks looked strange, and the branches were all naked with skeletons all over the ground. There were terrifying elements of fire in the air and no grass on the ground.
Boom!
The earth shook violently. Chu Xun gazed at the scene in front of him and saw an erupting volcano in the distance. Magma surged thousands of meters high into the sky, melting the surrounding mountains, and flowed in all directions.
“Is this the place where the Subterranean Devils Clan is sealed?” Chu Xun wondered.
Clatter!
Chu Xun moved following the clattering sounds of chains. He reached a hundred meters away quickly.
Boom!
A black shadow pounced toward the place where he had stood before, leaving a big hole in the ground and sending broken stones flying in all directions.
Chu Xun gazed at the shadow. It was a human being who didn’t look like a human being. His hands and feet were tied by chains. His red long hair, as dry and messy as withered grass, was down to his waist. He was so skinny that he looked like a walking skeleton. His hair fluttered with the wind, revealing his scarlet eyes.
Roar!
The man howled, and a strong evil aura spread as if he were a bloodthirsty beast.
“Are you from the Subterranean Devils Clan?” Chu Xun asked.
The man glared at Chu Xun after his attack failed. He didn’t move and looked like he couldn’t hear anything, just like a corpse.
Chu Xun snorted coldly. He raised his hand and a purple light shot out.
Boom!
The man still didn’t move and looked like he couldn’t hear anything. The purple light hit his body and exploded, causing a storm to sweep across the place.
Chu Xun narrowed his eyes slightly. His attack just knocked the man a few dozen meters backward. Chu Xun was shocked by the man’s solid body.
Roar!
The strange-looking man finally moved and rushed to Chu Xun with a roar. A terrifying gush of foul air hit Chu Xun, swaying his soul slightly.
Chu Xun was greatly shocked. He now was a Body of Soul, so his combat force was not strong. Moreover, he was very fragile. His feet moved and he drew backward quickly.
But the strange-looking man was so fast and even faster than him.
Chu Xun was truly shocked. He didn’t expect that he would encounter such a terrifying opponent as soon as he entered the place where the Subterranean Devils Clan was sealed.
As he stepped backward, he formed a magic signet with his hand and performed the Formula of Kill.
A chilling aura pervaded the air. The purple word “kill” expanded in the wind and shone brightly as it struck the strange-looking man violently.
However, the strange-looking man crushed the word “kill” with his head. A storm swept across the place, but the man didn’t slow down at all.
Chu Xun was frightened. He saw the strange-looking man charging at him and raising his hand to slap him.
Boom! Boom!…
Four explosions rang out, and the chains were stretched to their longest. The strange-looking man roared, but he couldn’t strike out with his hands.
Chu Xun broke out in a cold sweat. Before he could let out a sigh of relief, a sharp willpower-formed blade slashed at his body.
Boom!
Chu Xun was sent flying away. His soul trembled and was almost shattered.
Roar!
The strange-looking man raised his head and roared. He pulled the chains, which clattered so loudly as if they were going to break.
“Kill me, do it… kill me…”
The feeble mental fluctuation of Chu Xun rang out in his mind.
“What do you mean?” Chu Xun asked. He could sense the anxiety in the man’s tone.

“Hit my head, hurry up… there is no time left…”
Chu Xun gritted his teeth and formed a magic signet.
Demon-slain Finger — Scaring All the Gods and Ghosts by the Third Finger!
Demon-slain Finger — Shaking the Sky by the Fourth Finger!
Boom! Boom!
Smoke and dust billowed in the air. Two huge ancient stone pillars hit the strange-looking man in the head.
Boom! Boom!… Explosions rang out continuously.
Eternal Phoenix Scripture!
Azure Dragon’s Nine Transformations Technique!
Purple Thunder Doom!
Chu Xun performed dozens of powerful skills in quick succession. Each of his attacks landed on the head of the strange-looking man.
The strange-looking man did not dodge at all but fought head-on.
Chu Xun discovered that after each blow, the scarlet in the strange-looking man’s eyes would fade.
“Hit me again,” the strange-looking man said.
Chu Xun formed a seal, causing the void to rumble and the air to distort. Dragon’s roar was heard from his left hand, and phoenix’s cry was heard from his right hand.
There was a dragon flying and a phoenix dancing in the air.
The purple shadows of the dragon and phoenix entangled in Chu Xun’s hands. He merged the Azure Dragon’s Tyrannical Physique Technique into Eternal Phoenix Scripture.
Boom!
The shadows of the dragon and phoenix flew out twisting together and struck the strange-looking man in the head, exploding with a loud boom. A terrifying storm engulfed the area and caused the ground to collapse inch by inch.
The strange-looking man was blown away by the explosion.
Chu Xun gazed at him.
The strange-looking man stood up, and the scarlet in his eyes disappeared completely. He stared at Chu Xun with a malicious look.
“You were the one who asked me to hit you, so you can’t blame me.” As a matter of fact, Chu Xun had attacked the man ruthlessly, wishing to take the opportunity to kill him. Unfortunately, the man was too powerful.
Chu Xun was on full alert. Thankfully, there were chains binding the strange-looking man, so he couldn’t reach Chu Xun.
“Judging from your bones, you’re only in your thirties, yet you have such high cultivation. It’s really rare.” The strange-looking man’s voice was hoarse, but it was clear. “Which Immortal Clan are you from?”
Chu Xun’s heart trembled at the question. He asked, “Are you referring to the Immortal Domain?”
The strange-looking man looked at Chu Xun for a long time before nodding.
“There is no Immortal Domain in this world now,” Chu Xun said.
“What?” The strange-looking man was shocked. He continued with his eyes fixed on Chu Xun, “You are lying. You just performed some skills from the Immortal Clan. How dare you say that you’re not from the Immortal Domain?”
Chu Xun replied indifferently, “What’s the Immortal Domain exactly? I haven’t even seen a shadow of it before.”
Chu Xun didn’t have any good feelings towards Immortal Domain. As heaven and earth underwent a mutation, vicious birds and beasts wreaked havoc, and the world was rendered in chaos. Since there were immortals, why didn’t they protect the lives in the world?
The strange-looking man looked confused and stared at Chu Xun fixedly. After a long while, he asked, “Are you really not from the Immortal Domain?”
Chu Xun nodded.
“Immortal Domain, there is no longer an Immortal Domain in this world, haha…” The strange-looking man suddenly began to laugh crazily.
Chu Xun was shocked as he saw that the strange-looking man was actually crying.
“Who exactly are you?” Chu Xun asked.
The strange-looking man suddenly stopped laughing. He looked at Chu Xun and said, “I was from the Immortal Domain.”
Chu Xun was amazed. He didn’t expect this person to be from the Immortal Domain. “I thought you were from the Subterranean Devils Clan,” he said in surprise.
The strange-looking man’s eyes turned icy and were full of sarcasm. “I was from the Immortal Domain tens of millions of years ago. Now, I don’t know if I’m a member of the Immortal Domain or Subterranean Devils Clan.”
“You’ve been trapped here for tens of millions of years?” Chu Xun was astonished.
The strange-looking man nodded and said faintly, “It’s been so long that I can’t even remember how long it has been.”
“Who is it that trapped you here?” Chu Xun asked curiously.
“Who else could it be? Except for those bastards from the Immortal Domain, no one could trap me,” the strange-looking man said in a cold tone.
Chu Xun frowned. This man seemed to be muddled as he said he was from the Immortal Domain, but later he said again that he was from the Subterranean Devils Clan. He also said that he was trapped there by some people from the Immortal Domain.
“Are you thinking that there’s something wrong with my brain?” the strange-looking man stared at Chu Xun and asked.
Chu Xun was silent. This man’s cultivation was very high, and he was guarding the exit. If he did not move out of the way, Chu Xun would not be able to get out.
“Don’t worry! I’m clear-headed now,” the strange-looking man said and beckoned Chu Xun to come over.
Chu Xun certainly wouldn’t go over. If the man launched a sudden attack, Chu Xun wouldn’t even have a chance to escape.
“Coward.” The strange-looking man sneered, sat down against a rock, and continued, “Tell me what’s happening on the earth now.”
Chu Xun suddenly thought of something and asked, “Was it you that fought with me in the outside several months ago?”
A few months ago, when Chu Xun used the Tetrarchy Cauldron to refine some pills, a foul aura seeped through the seal. He thus fought a huge hand with his divine sense and had brief communication with it.
The strange-looking man pondered for a while, shook his head, and replied, “It should be me.”
“Should?” Chu Xun found the reply strange. If the huge hand was the man’s, he should reply yes; if it was not, he should reply no. What did he mean by “should be”?
The strange-looking man looked at Chu Xun with ridicule in his eyes as he said in a strange tone, “If you had been trapped here for tens of millions of years, you would turn into either a madman or a fool. The Poison of Fire is so strong here that no matter how kind-hearted you’re, you’ll turn into a demon.”
Chu Xun thought of how this strange-looking man had behaved like a bloodthirsty beast. He had long discovered that the air was full of poisonous elements of fire, and those elements were the Poison of Fire that the strange-looking man mentioned.
“Breathing in too much of Poison of Fire would harm one’s brain,” Chu Xun murmured.
The strange-looking man gazed at Chu Xun in surprise and said with a sneer, “It seems that you know a lot. You’re right. This Poison of Fire could turn a normal person into a beast, a devil. Thanks to you, I could remain sober for this moment.”

“For this moment?” Chu Xun couldn’t stay calm. “So, you’ll return to your normal state soon?”
The strange-looking man nodded and said, “I’ve been muddleheaded for nearly ten thousand years, and the times I could remain sober is becoming fewer and fewer.”
“Then please let me go,” Chu Xun said.
The strange-looking man gave Chu Xun a smile, revealing his white teeth. Pointing at the sealed maelstrom not far away, he said, “The exit is there. You can leave as you want. This seal is effective only to demons.”
Chu Xun did not move. He had to pass by the strange-looking man when he headed for the exit. He was not sure what the man wanted to do after seeing the strange smile on his face.
