The old man laughed strangely and said, "It's probably the same thing you want, although the usage may be a little different."

Tang Ruomei's face changed again! The old man looked at Mingyueshu again: "I'm just very curious! Whether it's the magical effect of maintaining beauty or the authority of Wuyuan Palace, it should not be attractive to the female infant who should be eternally young and seems to have no intention of fighting for power.

"Why would even the famous Goddess Infant come here?"

Ming Yueshu said calmly: "I don't know what you are talking about, and I am not interested at all."

The old man laughed and said, "That's good! That's good!"

Tang Ruomei suddenly smiled again: "Although she is not interested, the thing may have fallen into the hands of a little girl she brought with her. You old man, I am afraid it is too late for you and me."

The old man's face changed again.

Tang Ruomei smiled again and said, "Alas, I don't know what day it is today. In such a small Xuanming Cave, three of the top ten masters on the Black List are here! What a blessing, what a blessing!"

Behind her, in the blood-red palace, came an old, sad song, like crying, laughing, sobbing, and complaining: "The Palace of No Regrets... The Palace of Farewell... Empty sorrow... The heart of the underworld... People never grow old... Ghosts take different paths... Fallen petals are merciless... The sea of sin is boundless..."

The sound permeated everywhere and overflowed from the blood-red hall, as if it came from the boundless purgatory beneath the nine earths.

Tang Ruomei's face suddenly turned ugly again!

Du Yuejiao felt herself being dragged down by the little girl.

There was endless blood all around her, and only where she passed, there was a flash of faint white light.

The white light moved quickly among the blood and water like a drop of water, leaving behind twisted tracks.

Whoosh! Du Yuejiao escaped from the sea of blood, flipped in the air, and landed on the ground.

Looking around, there were only bones.

The pale green ghost fire was floating around her, making people's scalps tingle.

The little girl is gone!

She looked around and saw weapons and corpses everywhere. It seemed that there had been a fierce battle here.

Why would there be such a battlefield so deep underground? She was amazed.

There was only one road ahead. She remained on high alert, holding the sword at her waist tightly in her right hand, and moved forward along the road step by step.

After walking for a long time, the road ahead became much wider.

It was just that in the bone walls piled up around it, it seemed as if something was constantly wriggling.

There were unknown ghosts lurking everywhere in this place, looking at her with strange eyes.

She felt like she was being watched by thousands of evil spirits, and a chill ran down her spine.

Further ahead, there is a bronze gate, with two pitch-black iron coffins placed on both sides of the bronze gate.

On both sides of the bronze gate, there are two vertical inscriptions with two lines of characters written in Qin seal script. One line is "Two instruments and four images, intricate and wonderful", and the other line is "Eight trigrams and nine chapters, a strange ghost city".

Above the bronze gate, there is a plaque with the words "Kongming Palace" inscribed on it.

Kongming Palace? Du Yuejiao pondered in her mind and found that she had never heard of this name... Of course.

Under normal circumstances, who would have heard of such a place

The two black iron coffins were eerie and emitting a bloody, terrifying evil spirit that made people feel breathless just by looking at them.

Du Yuejiao felt her heart beating rapidly and could not help but look back again... She always felt that something was flying behind her.

Boom—the bronze gate opened at this moment.

As the bronze door opened, it seemed as if a dormant mechanism was triggered. The mountains shook and the earth trembled. The surrounding bone walls creaked and shattered, and skulls, arm bones, ribs, etc. rolled to her feet.

She was so horrified that she wanted to scream... Although she was a martial artist, at heart, she was just an ordinary girl.

Boom! The bronze door opened as far as it could inward, and a green, sacred aura rushed in.

Under the astonishing deterrence of this aura, the restlessness around gradually calmed down.

The countless ghosts and monsters that slowly crawled out from the layers of corpses and bones also stopped.

Du Yuejiao gritted her teeth and took a step forward. At this point, she couldn't possibly retreat

She entered the bronze gate.

Ah! The heavy bronze door closed behind her instantly.

Chapter 363: Sea of Love and Sin: Kongming Palace!

Du Yuejiao suddenly turned around and looked at the tightly closed bronze door behind him.

Viewed from this side of the door, it was blazing white, pure and spotless, like a jade carving.

It doesn't even look like the same gate.

Looking around, there were grotesque stone statues standing there, like celestial beings.

Every statue of a celestial maiden is beautiful, but their expressions appear ferocious, with either raised eyebrows or glaring eyes.

They held weapons, with silk scarves draped over their shoulders, and looked heroic and menacing.

Continuing forward, on the right wall, there is a carving of a dragon head. The dragon is black, with huge eyes that almost take up half of the dragon's face. Faintly, there seems to be a white light emanating from it.

On the left is a mural depicting countless blood-red crows.

Below them was a raging sea of blood, with corpses floating on it.

At the end of the dragon head carving on the right side are four characters written vertically - "九地枑灰"!

There are also four words at the end of the left side of the mural - "Nie Hai Qing Tian"!

Du Yuejiao slowly put the half-drawn sword back into the sheath.

Compared to the mountains of corpses and seas of bones outside, the scene here was still grotesque, but it did not look that sinister, which made her feel more or less at ease.

After passing through a temple gate, there is a spring pond in front of you. The pond is full of lotus flowers of all sizes, in all colors including red, blue, and white.

They cluster together and fill the spirit pond, adding a lot of spring color to this strange place.

Going around the spring pool, there are three consecutive white jade steps in front, and above the steps is a throne covered by white light.

There is no one on the throne, but there is a Ganoderma lucidum!

The white, translucent Ganoderma lucidum radiates a strange divine light, which shines as if illuminating the void.

Behind the throne was a grand brocade painting, on which was embroidered a sea. The bloody water exuded extreme malice.

The rolling evil air makes people tremble, but the Ganoderma lucidum alone makes people feel at ease just by looking at it.

Du Yuejiao stepped onto a white jade platform, one step closer to the Ganoderma lucidum on the throne.

One more step up, one step closer.

She took the third step, stood in front of the throne, and looked down at Lingzhi.

In her mind, fragments of memory were churning. These fragments did not belong to her, and she didn't know where they came from.

Ever since she left the Demonic Chi and Ghost Jiao in Changbai Mountain, these fragments of memory of unknown origin kept flashing in her mind, but she deliberately suppressed and ignored them all.

But at this moment, they were like crazy, pouring out from the depths of her subconscious.

These fragmented memories seemed to be trying to tell her one thing... Escape!

Run away from here immediately, the farther the better... Don't touch this Ganoderma lucidum!

Du Yuejiao gritted her teeth, ignoring the memory fragments that were popping up like rolling waves in her mind... These memory fragments did not belong to her in the first place.

She had never seen this pure white Ganoderma before, so she neither desired it nor was afraid of it.

In this situation, the emotions that kept surging in her mind and made her reject the white Ganoderma lucidum seemed to have ulterior motives... This was her judgment.

Du Yuejiao slowly stretched out his hand towards the white Ganoderma lucidum, preparing to pick it up and observe it carefully.

Her slender fingers were getting closer and closer to the white Ganoderma lucidum.

She touched the white, translucent Ganoderma lucidum, and boom, the white Ganoderma lucidum turned into a blazing white light, flowing along her fingers and into her body like a tide.

"Ah—" The girl held her head and screamed.

The surrounding scene began to shatter and everything was collapsing.

The throne without the white Ganoderma lucidum quickly shattered and collapsed, and the gorgeous petals of the colorful lotus in the spiritual pond behind her withered and scattered in an instant.

With a crackling sound, the murals and dragon head carvings were all crumbling. The sea of blood in the brocade painting in front of the girl seemed to have turned from illusion into reality, and rolled towards her with a loud bang.

The girl screamed miserably in the endless sea of blood.

The sea of love and suffering... According to legend, it is a sea of malice and suffering formed by the hatred aroused by the various love-hate entanglements of infatuated men and resentful women throughout the ages.

“The Palace of No Regret… The Hall of Farewell… Empty sorrow… The heart of darkness… People never grow old… Ghosts follow different paths… The fallen petals are merciless… The sea of sin is boundless…” The vicissitudes of life and the desolate singing voice came in a low and weak voice, but it seemed to fill the entire depths of the underground Xuanming Cave.

The entanglement is endless and lingering! This love will never die, and this hatred will never end!

Along with this soul-stirring and tragic song was the rumbling sound of something collapsing madly underfoot.

The burly old man in brocade robe, Ming Yueshu, and Tang Ruomei all looked down at the same time.

The earth and rocks were shaking, and the stone peaks were collapsing. Even though they were such powerful people, they knew just by the transmission of power from below that something must be collapsing underneath, causing the entire Xuanming Cave to shake.

Ming Yueshu was secretly worried about the safety of Shi Hao and others, but he didn't dare to withdraw easily.

At this moment, the three top-grade masters formed a triangle. If she easily pulled out, it would most likely attract the other two to chase her at the same time... Even she would definitely not be able to resist.

However, Tang Ruomei has six snake generals under her, and the old man has three evil men and seven evil men under his command. These six snake generals and the three evil men and seven evil men have their own men.

Will Shi Hao and the others be okay

Mingyue was worried, and the old man in brocade robe and Tang Ruomei were also anxious.

They have their own purposes and don't want to delay here meaninglessly.

If there were only two of them, they would have already started fighting... But there are three of them here.

No one can resist the combined efforts of the other two at the same time.

Even the old man in brocade robe is the same... Even if he is the number one master on the black list!

The momentum of the three people is counteracting each other. If they easily withdraw, their momentum will suddenly weaken, and it is very likely that the other two will take advantage of the situation to attack.

The three of them were in a stalemate, but it was obviously not a solution! The old man in brocade robes suddenly laughed strangely and said to Tang Ruomei, "You said that thing fell into the hands of a little girl? Haha, do you think I would believe such a thing? I think you just want to drag this goddess here. What you and I need has nothing to do with her."

The old man boasted of his profound skills and extraordinary strength. No matter whether he was fighting against the female infant or the scorpion alone, he had a chance of winning.

The only thing is that when he fights against two people at the same time, he loses more than he wins.

But, at least so far, there is no conflict of interest between him and this goddess baby. On the contrary, Tang Ruomei wants the same thing as him.

It was for this reason that he wanted to eliminate the hostility of the goddess baby.

Tang Ruomei sneered, "Don't say you don't believe it, I don't believe it either! But you should also be able to judge that the Kongming Palace below is collapsing. If that thing hadn't been taken by someone, how could it suddenly collapse? The facts are right in front of us. If you don't believe it, I can't either!"

The old man couldn't help but frown. Ming Yueshu held a double-pointed spear and said indifferently: "Kongming Palace, what is that?"

Tang Ruomei smiled sweetly and said, "Have you ever heard of Princess Kongming, the Sea of Love?"

Ming Yueshu shook his head slowly!

Although she had never heard of it, she was somewhat curious... Being able to attract these two people at the same time was not an easy thing in itself.

The old man in brocade robes... Hong Leichi, the top expert on the Black List, put his hands behind his back and laughed, "You haven't heard of it, that's right. Because this sea of sin is not in the human world, and the Princess Kongming who once ruled the sea of sin is not a mortal. When she was alive, this name was unknown in the mortal world, and those who knew this name would naturally forget it.

"After her death, her name can only appear in the mortal world, but not many people know it. In fact, Princess Kongming is not a real princess. 'She' is an object, or a treasure, a power. She is a living thing, but also a dead thing, between life and death, so she can be immortal in the human world and immortal in the underworld!"

Ming Yueshu sneered with a hint of mockery in his eyes: "Is the world immortal?" He glanced at Tang Ruomei.

Tang Ruomei snorted, her face slightly showing anger and resentment, and suddenly smiled at Hong Leichi and said, "Why don't we kill this female infant first, and then I won't fight with you. You go find what you want, and I'll see if I can find the 'South Pole Immortality' that dispersed after her death?"

Chapter 364: The Sea of Love and Sin: Hong Lei Chi!

Hong Leichi laughed strangely: "Good suggestion! Good suggestion!"

Ming Yueshu, however, still stood there, calm and composed, unmoved.

Hong Leichi looked at the goddess infant and asked curiously, "Aren't you worried that the two of us will really join forces?"

Ming Yueshu said calmly: "Two people without any credibility, I believe you have the possibility to join forces, do you believe it yourself?"
