Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor

In the eerie and strange depths of the forest, when Shi Feng and the Black Robed Man ventured here, they discovered that the environment not only grew more sinister and strange but so did the surrounding trees.

Each tree was already withered and grew in a bizarre manner, resembling demonic creatures, baring fangs and claws, ferocious and menacing.

"Goo goo! Goo goo goo! Goo!" At this moment, a series of strange "goo goo" sounds continuously emanated from deeper within the forest, adding to the eerie atmosphere of the deathly, silent forest.

After entering this strange and eerie forest, Shi Feng and the Black Robed Man no longer moved swiftly but proceeded cautiously and slowly.

"Goo! Goo goo goo goo!" The strange "goo goo" cries ahead continued to resonate.

Yet after Shi Feng and the Black Robed Man delved deeper into the forest for half an hour, they still hadn't seen the creature making the strange cries.

"What kind of creature is this, to only hear its strange sound but be completely unable to sense its presence?" said the Black Robed Man walking beside Shi Feng.

"This is another species from the ancient times of your Wilderness Continent. I can't sense its presence either; it seems this thing has no aura at all," Shi Feng said.

"Its hidden technique seems more refined than yours. However, we've been here for quite some time, and since this thing has yet to attack us, it presumably has no intention of doing so.

Not every creature is inherently vicious. Some creatures won't bother us as long as we don't provoke them."

"Hopefully, it's a kind and honest ancient creature," the Black Robed Man nodded in response.

"Goo! Goo goo! Goo goo goo!" At this moment, the goo goo sounds rang out again incessantly from the front.

"This... this sound, it resembles that legendary sound!" At this moment, a surprised voice suddenly resonated from within Shi Feng.

It was the Sacred Flame... or rather, it now named itself Gousheng.

"What is it, do you recognize this sound? Could it be that in ancient times, our Tianheng Continent also had such strange creatures?" Upon hearing the Sacred Flame's voice, Shi Feng communicated with it through his soul, asking.

"It reminded me of a legend from our time regarding this strange sound," the Sacred Flame replied.

However, Shi Feng heard this response and sensed some apprehension regarding the legendary strange sound.

Influenced by the Sacred Flame's words, Shi Feng asked in a deep voice, "What exactly is the legend? What kind of creature makes the strange sound?"

"What kind of creature it is, even in our time, no one knew!" the Sacred Flame replied:

"This strange and eerie goo sound is known as the Life-taking Death Strange Sound, and every living being that hears it dies!"

As the Sacred Flame spoke the last sentence, its voice became low.

The Sacred Flame, being the Dantian's fire of Shi Feng, allowed him to sense that it was telling the truth.

"Life-taking Death Strange Sound?" Shi Feng murmured softly, his expression turning grave.

In this eerie and strange ancient forest, encountering the legendary Life-taking Death Strange Sound is not impossible.

Especially since this place is rumored to be the fallen site of the Ancient Demon God.

"Yes! It must be the Life-taking Death Strange Sound; it's becoming more and more like the legend, unable to be sensed at all, but any living being that hears it will die!" the Sacred Flame once again shouted in alarm.

Even the Demigod Level Heavenly Fire seemed to fear this strange sound.

"What's wrong with you?" The Black Robed Man, walking alongside Shi Feng, noticed the grave expression on his face and asked.

"I remembered a legend from the ancient times of our Tianheng Continent related to this sound," Shi Feng replied.

"Oh? Tell me," the Black Robed Man said, curious upon hearing Shi Feng's words.

"In our Tianheng Continent during ancient times, this sound was known as the Life-taking Death Strange Sound. Every living being that hears it dies!" Shi Feng recited to the Black Robed Man what the Sacred Flame had told him.

"Life-taking Death Strange Sound?" The Black Robed Man's tone also carried a weight after hearing Shi Feng's words.

Originally, this was already an eerie forest with a strange atmosphere, and adding the eerie cries, the strange creature whose aura couldn't be sensed at all.

For a moment, both fell silent, not speaking any further.

The forest, dead silent once more, turned even quieter.

From time to time, the peculiar and eerie goo goo goo echoes permeated the air again.

After venturing further along their path, the Black Robed Man suddenly spoke up, "I feel like a pair of eyes in the darkness is watching us."

"Hmm! I have the same feeling," Shi Feng nodded silently, saying.

At this moment, they felt not only a pair of eyes watching them from behind but also a cold aura approaching.

But when they turned around, aside from those claw-baring strange trees, there was nothing else.

They still couldn't sense the presence of any other living being.

"Goo! Goo goo! Goo goo goo!" At this moment, the previously silenced strange cries began again.

"Die! Die! Die! Die!" Suddenly, a voice as if someone was singing, like a demon's whisper, suddenly echoed throughout this eerie and strange forest.

"Who's pretending to be a ghost here? Get out here now!" Shi Feng shouted loudly upon hearing the voice.

In his right hand, a blood-colored light flashed, and the Bloodthirsty Long Sword, now an advanced Demigod Artifact, appeared in his hand.

At this moment, the Black Robed Man also surveyed the surroundings, and both prepared for battle at any moment.

"Die! Die! Die! Die!"

"Die! Die! Die!" At this moment, the voice echoed continually.

And still, Shi Feng and the Black Robed Man were unable to sense the presence of other living beings, yet the feeling of being watched persisted.

The sinister, cold wind occasionally swept from various directions towards them, surrounding them.

"Burn!" At this moment, Shi Feng's face turned ruthless, and with a cold shout, his entire body erupted into a demonic crimson blaze, spreading rapidly in all directions.

Wherever the flames passed, they surged and rolled like blood-colored giant waves, instantly reducing the claw-baring strange withered trees to nothing.

This area swiftly transformed into a raging blood-colored sea of fire, and the blood-colored flames rose to the sky, painting the world in crimson.

Since the ghostly entity insisted on hiding, Shi Feng decided to burn it out with this sea of fire.

Shi Feng and the Black Robed Man stood within this blood-colored sea of fire.

However, despite the Black Robe being in a sea of flames, thanks to Shi Feng's precise control of the fire, not a single flame touched him.
