With a loud bang, Li Hong followed in Ling Yi Zi's footsteps and crashed hard against the stone wall.
Li Hong got up, gritting his teeth, and looked at the fourth platform, his expression quite strange. Just moments ago, the Divine Slaying Monument had automatically emerged to block the powerful backlash of the Restrictions.
The Divine Slaying Monument did not return but instead floated quietly in the air. Li Hong was puzzled and was about to recall the Divine Slaying Monument when an unexpected change occurred.
A beam of golden light shot out from the fourth platform, so bright it was blinding, striking directly at the Divine Slaying Monument suspended in mid-air. Before Li Hong could react in surprise, a second beam of golden light emerged from the fifth platform, also perfectly aimed at the Divine Slaying Monument. The two beams of golden light intersected, causing the Divine Slaying Monument to suddenly radiate with brilliant golden light.
Numerous golden patterns flashed across the surface of the Divine Slaying Monument. Deep within it, a black silhouette that only Li Hong could see began to tremble; its outline became clearer as it started to move its limbs, resembling a real person just waking from a dream!
Li Hong was dumbfounded. The objects on the fourth and fifth platforms were likely components of the Divine Slaying Monument!
Initially, deep within Fengdu Hidden Palace, he had managed to wrestle the Divine Slaying Monument away from Yandao Demon Lord as if pulling it from a tug-of-war. After that, he had unintentionally recognized it as his own! To be precise, he had only partially recognized it because the Artifact Spirit within the Divine Slaying Monument was quite unruly. At first, he thought of the Divine Slaying Monument as a useless item, but several events later proved that it was not only useful but also a valuable treasure. For instance, during his time in Wandering Path of the Stars, if it hadn't been for the Divine Slaying Monument automatically protecting him, he would have long been robbed by that eccentric old man known as the first mechanism master of the Divine Realm. Since then, he had used the Divine Slaying Monument more or less in every major battle. After achieving mastery with his Earth Soul Avatar, he often split himself into multiple forms for Moonlight Sect while keeping the Divine Slaying Monument with his main body. He increasingly valued the Divine Slaying Monument.
However, despite its immense power, according to the Artifact Spirit itself, the Divine Slaying Monument was incomplete.
The Divine Slaying Monument was one component of a powerful artifact composed of six parts and seven pieces. These six parts included the Divine Slaying Monument, Bagua Crown, Six Paths of Reincarnation, Heartless Shuttle, Yin Yang Platform, and Star-Moon Radiance. Since there were two Six Paths of Reincarnation pieces, this artifact had six parts but seven pieces in total. Both Six Paths of Reincarnation and Bagua Crown were in Yandao Demon Lord's possession; Li Hong only had the Divine Slaying Monument. He had never dared to hope to collect other parts of this artifact; however, he never expected that there would be two pieces right here!
Recalling what the Artifact Spirit had once said about "another space," Li Hong felt both surprised and delighted—could this be it?
As he watched three beams of golden light intertwining in awe, his feet suddenly shook violently. At that moment, a delicate voice from the Divine Tablet Spirit echoed in his heart: "Kid, this place is going to be destroyed! Hurry and leave!"
Li Hong panicked: "If I leave, are you going to stay behind?!"
"No! We leave together!"
As soon as the words were spoken, a dazzling red light erupted from the top of the platform. Before Li Hong could react, three beams of golden light shot towards him at an unimaginable speed.
In the blink of an eye, Li Hong realized that the Divine Slaying Monument had returned to the Upper Dantian space, and not only that, it had two companions.
Without time to examine what those two objects were, he grabbed the stunned Ling Yi Zi and urgently said, "This place is going to be destroyed; we need to leave quickly!"
Ling Yi Zi waved his hand vigorously, pointing at the platform and shouted, "There’s the Extreme Point Celestial Treasure! Let’s collect it before we go!"
Extreme Point Celestial Treasure? What nonsense! Li Hong had no time to tell him that the most important treasure had already been collected by him. He pulled Ling Yi Zi along and dashed out without further ado.
A thunderous roar echoed as the well's opening completely collapsed, and a thick, almost tangible black Ethereal Energy surged upward.
Li Hong's heart sank; this was extremely dangerous! There was something within that solid-like black Ethereal Energy!
Countless monstrous evil spirits surged up from the well, fierce and indescribable. Compared to them, legendary night demons seemed like gentle lambs. Just a fleeting glance sent chills racing up from his feet. Fortunately, these Evil Spirits seemed trapped within the Ethereal Energy; no matter how ferocious they were, they couldn't break free from its confines. But this was surely temporary. A massive demon's arm had already extended beyond the Ethereal Energy, growing longer and longer...
Without a moment to spare, Li Hong pulled Ling Yi Zi and rushed out of the Passageway into the sky.
The ground trembled with a deafening roar as mountains collapsed, one pyramid after another sinking into the Underground. Feathered Serpents flitted about chaotically, flapping their wings and soaring higher and faster.
With a flash of Iridescence, Li Hong cleaved a nearby Feathered Serpent in two. Yue Que burst forth from his forehead, rapidly enlarging. Li Hong seized Ling Yi Zi and stepped onto Yue Que, transforming into golden light as they soared upward. The only thought in his mind was: hurry!
The space was undergoing drastic changes; if they couldn't reach the exit before it collapsed, both he and Ling Yi Zi would become lost souls wandering aimlessly. Even with all seven pieces of the Divine Slaying Monument gathered, there would be no escape! They had to reach the exit as quickly as possible before the cave-in occurred.
A vast gray mist enveloped the surroundings, and a cacophony of fragmented sounds echoed below! The Feathered Serpents sensed the impending danger and instinctively fled upwards. Li Hong formed a sword gesture with one hand while tightly holding Ling Yi Zi at his waist with the other, his mind focused on one word: hurry!
Suddenly, he heard Ling Yi Zi's voice in his mind, "Li Hong, did you collect those two Celestial Artifacts?"
"Yes! We need to escape quickly! The exit will disappear soon!" Li Hong shouted, extending his Divine Consciousness in all directions to locate the mark he had left at the exit. He suddenly remembered Little Fei still trapped in the Eight Formation Flag and quickly summoned Little Fei, commanding, "Find the exit now!"
Little Fei transformed into a streak of golden light, soaring upward at a speed ten times faster than Li Hong and Ling Yi Zi's golden forms.
The rumbling sounds from below grew louder, and suddenly Li Hong felt a chill as monstrous creatures broke through the Ethereal Energy barrier. These beings resembled demons that had just escaped from hell, sporting two horns on their heads, with dark purple skin covered in jagged armor. Their feet thundered like giant stone mills crushing the earth beneath them, trampling countless Feathered Serpents into pulp. The monsters grabbed the Feathered Serpents and stuffed them into their mouths, crunching loudly as blood splattered everywhere while they emitted satisfied howls, showing no fear of the Feathered Serpents' potent venom.
Li Hong's hair stood on end. "What are those things!"
Ling Yi Zi sneered, "Don't you know? They are the legendary demons! What you call the Demon Sect is actually human; these are the true demons!"
"Look at what you're saying—'what you call the Demon Sect.' Master Uncle, it's actually what we call the Demon Sect," Li Hong replied casually.
Ling Yi Zi fell silent. Li Hong stood in front of him and could feel Ling Yi Zi's breathing quickening, his spiritual energy surging throughout his body, ready for action.
Indeed, he was a seasoned fighter already prepared for battle. Li Hong admired him even more as he extended his Divine Consciousness in all directions, hoping to find the exit quickly.
At that moment, a series of faint strange sounds came from beneath his feet, resembling dripping water. Li Hong looked down and nearly jumped off Yue Que in shock.
Unbeknownst to him, a massive demon creature had silently appeared beneath him, flying swiftly with two large black wings. It tilted its head back, its demonic eyes gleaming hungrily at Li Hong and Ling Yi Zi while drool dripped from its mouth onto Li Hong's chest. The series of faint sounds he heard were indeed droplets of saliva falling down.
A flash of white light. Before Li Hong could make a move, Ling Yi Zi's "Ask the Way" struck heavily on the troll's head.
"Awwooo!!"
The troll let out a long, mournful cry as a large gash opened on its forehead, and the strange, glowing, viscous green blood flowed all over its face and body. Two enormous wing tips flickered in the gray mist and vanished.
Li Hong and Ling Yi Zi exchanged a glance, both feeling relieved. Li Hong was desperately urging Yue Que. However, the gray mist was boundless; it took a long time to descend, and ascending was equally time-consuming. Especially in such a critical moment, time felt agonizingly slow, as if they were inching upward.
Just as he was feeling anxious, Li Hong heard Little Fei's voice: "I've found the exit! Master, hurry over!"
"Okay!" Li Hong instantly grasped Little Fei's exact location and turned to Ling Yi Zi, saying, "We're almost there!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Yi Zi released Li Hong's hand and instead grabbed the back of Li Hong's clothing. For some reason, his grip tightened more and more, trembling slightly.
Li Hong could clearly sense it. He was too nervous! Li Hong thought to himself as he turned left to rush forward.
Yue Que traced a brilliant golden arc through the gray mist. Ling Yi Zi was caught off guard and suddenly found himself separated from Yue Que. Fortunately, his hand still clutched the back of Li Hong's clothing. With a swift motion, Li Hong pulled Ling Yi Zi back behind him and shouted, "Be careful!"
In an instant, Li Hong spotted the abrupt outline of a circular hole in the layer of gray mist ahead and saw Little Fei floating in front of the opening, shining with golden light.
Little Fei zipped over and grabbed Li Hong's hair. With Ling Yi Zi and Little Fei in tow, Li Hong charged straight into the hole.
Just after passing through the opening, a wave of force surged from behind that made their hearts race. Immediately afterward, an immense pressure rushed into the passageway, darkening everything in its wake and causing all matter to vanish in an instant.
Li Hong and Ling Yi Zi turned around simultaneously, startled.
Ling Yi Zi shouted, "Space collapse! Hurry up!"
Li Hong tossed a piece of Supreme Celestial Stone into his mouth, desperately urging Yue Que. A long streak of golden light flashed by, with immense pressure chasing closely behind.
The force grew nearer and nearer. At that moment, the surroundings suddenly brightened, and his body shot out like a bullet from the entrance of the Yin Spirit Eye into a vast Underground cavern. The relentless force that had been pursuing him suddenly vanished.
Li Hong looked back and saw a pillar of pitch-black smoke filled with terrifying energy erupting from the entrance of the Yin Spirit Eye. Wherever it passed, the stone walls silently turned to nothingness. But that was all; the range did not expand at all.
The Pyramid Forest Space, along with the Passageway they entered, turned to nothingness as well. This was for the best; at least the Feathered Serpent and the monsters could not come out and wreak havoc on the human world.
Quickly escaping through the crack, Li Hong gazed at the blue sky and white clouds, smiling as he said, "Surviving a calamity is truly fortunate!"
Ling Yi Zi looked back at him. His expression was strange—pale, hesitant, with sparks seemingly flickering in his eyes.
Li Hongqi asked, "Master Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
