Chapter 165: The City of No Light, Secret Realm, Demon Coffin, Slaying, Harvest_3
Every time he thought of these words, he found neither sleep nor appetite.
Since he had become entangled in the affairs of the Ling family, he had to eradicate them root and branch.
This person could annihilate his own descendants, so what would happen if such a ruthless individual set his sights on his own Hidden Dragon Temple?
He was still okay, but he feared that Qing Feng, Ming Yue, and his junior brother Qing Yunzi would have no way out.
It might be best to take a gamble, to kill him completely before his promotion.
This damned Doomsday Evil Corpse, destroying it would probably yield quite a few Deep Red Points~
Yi Chen was also a resolute and ruthless person, who had previously been unable to find this person's hidden location. After briefly weighing the pros and cons, he immediately began to take action.
After relentlessly searching underground, he finally broke through a layer of rock with a crack, and Yi Chen suddenly found himself standing in a cave. The place was extremely narrow, and at the end was a bronze gate with the ancient seal characters for "seal demon" inscribed on each side.
The two ancient characters were grand and majestic. With just a glance, Yi Chen felt as if two mountains were pressing down upon him, shaking him to the core.
"Holy shit, to think it possesses such mighty power after thousands of years, only slightly inferior to the plaque below Zhengyang City on Dragon Tiger Mountain. What kind of cultivation level did the senior who wrote these characters have?"
"Is there really such a huge gap even among True Monarchs?"
After a moment of contemplation, Yi Chen no longer focused on the ancient bronze characters on the door, but instead walked slowly toward the gate, and pushed it open!
He dared to step through this portal because he had confidence and had considered the risks.
Since that old dog of the Ling family was hiding and waiting to be promoted, it meant he feared Yi Chen. Once he was afraid, Yi Chen was no longer afraid. Yi Chen trusted the judgment of his enemy.

Moreover, in this demon-sealing place, it was likely that the old ancestor of the Ling family had at most the cultivation of a True Person when he broke in here; and yet he was unharmed and moved freely, indicating that the demons imprisoned here had been worn down by the power of time and likely posed no great danger.
With wolves ahead and tigers behind, one must risk their life for glory!
There's no such thing as a sure win in this world.
Thinking of the Yan Family's subsequent actions and the retaliation from the Ling family's old ancestor if he successfully broke through, Yi Chen exerted force on his arms, pulled open the bronze gate, and flashed into the space beyond.
After a moment of disorientation, Yi Chen shook his head and regained his senses.
Looking up, he found the world had changed.
"I never expected this demon-sealing place to be a Secret Realm; even the bronze gate itself, made of some unknown material, blended perfectly with the surroundings. Without a map or special methods, it would be impossible to find such a place."
"I wonder how the old ancestor of the Ling family managed to get in here," Yi Chen couldn't help but lament in his heart.
He ascended the stone stairs, passing through a quiet, dimly lit corridor, and arrived within a grand hall, when Yi Chen suddenly halted.
In the distance, outside a grand hall, stood a wolf.
A huge wolf covered in silver-white armor.
"Who are you, daring to intrude into the retreat of my master, and how did you come in?"
Upon seeing Yi Chen's figure, the wolf seemed very surprised and spoke in human speech. Judging by its aura, it was on par with the Mountain Lord he had encountered in the ruined temple on Black Wind Mountain.
"You wish to stop me?" Yi Chen raised an eyebrow.
"Of course, my name is…"
Boom!
Before the wolf could finish, its head was blown apart by a punch from Yi Chen.
His figure immediately entered the grand hall.
It was an immensely large stone hall.
Inside, many skeletons were haphazardly piled up, men and women, old and young alike. Yi Chen looked around and saw no sign of any living person, thinking that the kid should be eighteen years old after eighteen years...
In the hall hung many white lanterns inscribed with the word "mourning" and many white banners with blessings. They were arranged in two long rows, fluttering as if in a breeze.
At a casual glance.
This is written: "The corpse knows no bounds."
In the middle it says, "The yin life is eternal."
That one reads, "Death is also life."
Looking up, Yi Chen noticed that the densely packed streamers at the top were actually filled with names and portraits of the Ling family members, as if all of them were filial sons and grandsons wishing their ancestor a happy birthday.
Yi Chen: "... Old Dog Ling kills without mercy."
Below the great hall was a pool filled with shimmering mercury.
This must be the scene Yi Chen saw in his dream when the duck egg invaded his mind.
Above the great hall was a circular platform, resembling an altar, and at its top was a white jade dome studded with various jewels, with a conduit inserted straight into the sarcophagus on the altar, the contents within the pipe surging as if something inside the sarcophagus was swallowing something.
"Swallow this, you bastard, get up and party!"
Yi Chen stared at the sarcophagus on the altar for a moment, revealing his True Yang Spirit, and pulled out the new, un-blooded Dragon-Slaying Sword.
A furious sword qi slashed directly at the sarcophagus.
Boom!
The sarcophagus was instantly torn to shreds by the furious sword qi, and the magical formation on top of the altar was also destroyed, scattered all around, as a fierce figure emerged from the sword qi storm.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
"Yi Chengzi, how did you find this place? I will have you dead!"
A ghastly withered corpse rushed toward Yi Chen, whose ascension had just been brutally interrupted by Yi Chen. The Ling family ancestor was now seething with rage, his body surging with the energy of death, his aura was terrifyingly powerful.
"I feel the same way."
"Explode! Explode! Explode!"
Yi Chen let out a fierce shout, and three golden liquid droplets within his body exploded one after the other, releasing a torrent of unmatched violent inner qi, which actually forced his True Yang Spirit form to lengthen another half meter.
He swung the Dragon-Slaying Sword, two and a half meters long and as broad as a door plank, trailing a golden flame tail, and launched a violent attack on the Ling family ancestor.
This sudden turn of events greatly exceeded the Ling family ancestor's expectations.
As soon as Yi Chen made his move, he was already giving it his all.
The Ling family ancestor's face changed drastically!
Sword and claw clashed!
The golden inner qi and the rich grey energy of the corpse rubbed against each other frantically, sparking dense sparks and emitting a piercing hissing sound.
After a few seconds of standoff, Yi Chen's inner qi surged again, and an invisible golden flame began to rise around the two, gradually closing in.
Hiss!
With a flash of golden light, Yi Chen appeared behind the Ling family ancestor.
"Ling family ancestor, not bad!"
A golden crack appeared slowly along the center of the Ling family ancestor's body.
He was bisected by a single sword strike!
He gazed down in shock at his own wound.
"No… impossible… how can I die here... I am..."
Boom!
The body of the Ling family ancestor exploded with a bang, scattering corpse fragments all over the sky, black corpse fluid drifted everywhere, spreading across the floor tiles.
