Jinyiwei's psychic case: the opening is Lingbo Weibu

Chapter 1366

As soon as the Styx Ancestor finished speaking, he immediately unleashed the Ghost Curse, forcibly breaking the 'talisman array'!

"Ok?"

"Is this array still constructed using Yin energy?"

"In terms of your control over evil energy alone, you, Xu Shan, are indeed qualified to let this old ancestor personally break through your barrier."

"But if you intend to use this broken formation to stop this old ancestor?"

"Then you take yourself way too seriously."

"Entering and exiting the netherworld, feasting and reveling in all directions..."

"break!"

'boom. ’

With the full force of the Styx Ancestor, the 'talisman array' that Xu Shan had deliberately infused with Yin energy was instantly shattered.

The reason for adding an extra layer of 'Yin Sha Power' was twofold: firstly, Xu Shan was unsure when the Styx Ancestor would arrive, and he didn't want the surviving Earth Demons to ruin his plans.

Secondly, if the array is designed too simply, without forcing the Styx Ancestor to put in some effort, given his suspicious nature, he will definitely suspect something is amiss.

Of course, the most important point is...

Only he managed to open this array with great difficulty.

Only then can the traps be triggered immediately!

And everything was within Xu Shan's calculations.

'boom.'

The moment the talisman array shattered, the demonic energy sealed within it instantly surged towards the Styx Ancestor.

Caught completely off guard, he hadn't even had time to react. The 'fireball' of the Blazing Fire, now freed from the shackles of demonic energy, instantly devoured the dried corpse and charged towards his opponent.

Sensing the danger, the Styx Ancestor immediately activated his malevolent energy to block it.

Even so, the intense clash of flames engulfed his entire body.

"what……"

"Hellfire?"

"hateful!"

"How could there be hellfire here?"

"Ow."

When he shouted these words, the Styx Ancestor, who dared not be careless, immediately mobilized all his energy to resist.

Deep within the Netherworld, he used Hellfire to suppress the Asura King, so he naturally knew the power of this fire.

Therefore, we dare not be careless at all.

Fortunately, this hellfire is a fire without roots!

Its sudden surge of power was quickly dissipated under the full suppression of the Styx Ancestor.

Even so, the Styx Ancestor, who had no physical body but only a true soul, suffered considerable injuries.

Originally, the materialized true soul had become blurred in many areas.

Having forcibly broken through the barrier without the support of a strong physique, the Styx Ancestor's strength was already severely limited.

Now, having suffered this severe blow, he is on the verge of losing control.

What truly enraged him was when he regained his senses and saw the vanished 'Holy Demon Body,' he instantly unleashed a torrent of fury.

"Where is my, my ancestor's, Holy Demon Body?"

"It's burned out?"

'bass! ’

'Boom.'

"Xu Shan..."

"Come out here, you old ancestor."

Knowing that he had been tricked and schemed against, the Styx Ancestor seemed to be possessed, ravaging various areas of the Styx Palace.

This caused many parts of the already dilapidated hall to collapse.

'Whoosh, whoosh!'

Several dozen breaths later, the panting Styx Ancestor could still feel the scorching pain from the lingering heat of the fire.

As he gradually calmed down, he began to analyze the matter...

He didn't realize that Xu Shan had already refined the [Saint Demon Body].

After all, he had tried for sixty years without success.

He is but a mortal, what virtue or ability does he possess to refine it?

The only explanation is that he used some kind of magical artifact to transport the Holy Demon Body away.

Then, they placed a 'fake' one in the same spot. They orchestrated all of this!

While severely injuring himself, he was also able to find a place to expel the demonic energy from his body.

Yes, that must be the case.

"hateful!"

"Despicable mortal cultivator, vile Xu Shan."

"Don't let this old ancestor catch you."

"Otherwise, I will make you wish you were dead."

Even so, the Styx Ancestor was aware of this. Just now, not only had he been possessed by demonic energy, but he had also suffered severe injuries from Hellfire.

If we were to rashly go looking for Xu Shan in the current state...

While we wouldn't be at a disadvantage, it's highly likely he escaped.

Therefore, without being in a hurry, he went straight to the bottom floor of the Styx Palace.

This is the 'source of the water veins' of the River Styx.

He was born here, and he chose this place to restore his strength.

Before formally meditating, in order to prevent Xu Shan from escaping from the underground cave.

Aside from the [Lesser Yin Mystic King] side...

He has sealed all the gates to hell leading to the mortal realm.

Now that he had broken through the barrier, he naturally wanted to nip this trouble in the bud within the cave.

As for the Eighteen Levels of Hell, the Styx Ancestor was not worried at all.

It's not that he had complete confidence in the strength of the remaining Demon Lords.

Rather, the entire eighteen levels of hell are connected to the main vein of the underground cave.

There are also dozens of seals, intertwined one after another.

Xu Shan, if you really have designs on that place, it's tantamount to courting death!

If he touches or forcibly breaks through a seal, and there isn't enough time to break it...

Not only will they be trapped in the depths of the Netherworld, but they will also suffer the backlash of hellfire.

If he really goes, it will save the Styx Ancestor from having to dig three feet into the ground to look for him.

Another point is that deep within the Nine Netherworlds, there are four [Troll] Soul Sculptures.

If Xu Shan were to break in there...

The Styx Ancestor had reason to believe that Xu Shan wouldn't even leave a trace.

……

Just as the Styx Ancestor was being attacked in the Styx Palace...

Xu Da Guanren, who made his name through agility, had already arrived at the entrance to the Eighteen Hells—the Nine Netherworld Cave—ahead of the Judge King, following his instructions!

At this time, this place was also heavily guarded by the Earth Demon Guards.

Judging from the system's prompts, there are no fewer than twenty small seals alone.

Layer upon layer, link upon link!

The system's red warning sound would occasionally ring in Xu Shan's ears.

He was warned that he must not force his way through these seals.

One step wrong, step by step wrong.

The last time the system issued so many alerts was when Xu Shan 'slayed the heavenly punishment and slayed the lightning tribulation'.

"King Asura..."

“Saving you will be much more difficult than completing Wutian’s mission.”

"Yeah!"

"You have to pay more."

Looking at the list of at least twenty seals, Xu Shan muttered to himself.

The short ones can be deduced in just a few minutes.

The longest seal is that of the main gate deep within the Nine Netherworlds.

Forty-seven minutes and twenty-six seconds!

Xu Shan now pins his hopes on the Styx Ancestor spending a little more time at the Styx Palace.

Logically speaking, he had killed so many of the Demon Lords and tricked them.

The Styx Ancestor will definitely be furious!

Otherwise, Xu Shan would really look down on him.

'Boom.'

Just as Xu Shan was pondering these words, a huge vortex suddenly formed in the empty sky above his head.

Even the crimson moon hanging in the sky was obscured by it and would be difficult to see for some time.

This made the already dark Nine Nether Forbidden Land even more sinister and terrifying.

Even the demons guarding this place looked up in fear.
