Even though she could barely be considered a cultivator,
there was still a bit of unease in her heart.
Her heart was pounding!
The next moment,
Yun Jiuqing saw Daoist Priest Fan holding the City God’s Command in his hands before thrusting it straight into the crack.
Instantly!
The City God’s Command emitted a blinding red glow, and the might emanating from it caused Yun Jiuqing, who was close by, to feel a surge of alarm.
Rip!
It was as if the sound of something being torn echoed, and Yun Jiuqing watched with wide eyes as Daoist Priest Fan fiercely slashed the City God’s Command downward!
The crack, not particularly large to begin with, was forcibly split open by the City God’s Command in that instant!
Becoming longer.
Becoming bigger.
The crack expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a massive amount of Yin Energy from the Underworld began surging out. Ice frosted over the ground beneath their feet, and vast expanses of flowers, grass, and trees began to wither right before their eyes.
In the blink of an eye, the area within a dozen steps had become desolate, and this influence was still spreading outward.
Yun Jiuqing was utterly shocked at the sight.
"Daoist Priest Fan, what about those two?" Yun Jiuqing pointed at the Coachman who had fainted from fear and the Wu Family young miss who was still unconscious, her voice weak as she asked.
"They won’t die," Fan Wu produced a small paper packet and gently broke it open, then casually scattered its contents.
Incense burner ash fell upon the two of them.
The very fine incense ash, acting like a powerful glue, stubbornly adhered to their skin.
Yun Jiuqing could see what seemed like an inch-thick shield forming over the two people, coated in incense ash.
The Yin Energy emerging from the Underworld.
Could not harm the two of them in the least.
Then,
she saw Daoist Priest Fan step directly into the crack. His figure quickly disappeared into the rumored Underworld.
Soon after, she saw Old Blue Ox approach, seemingly out of nowhere.
Old Blue Ox, carrying His Highness the Prince of Nanjun, also entered.
Yun Jiuqing watched, completely dumbstruck.
Did this Old Blue Ox not realize just how perilous the place it was stepping into was?
That was the Underworld!
Even the relatively safe areas within the Underworld were probably no less dangerous than those in the Great Demon Forbidden Land, right? Some of the more hazardous areas might even be more dangerous than the Great Demon Forbidden Land, right?
"Dammit!"
"How can I be worse than an ox?"
Realizing that she was still hesitating on the spot, Yun Jiuqing gritted her teeth with determination.
And she stepped over.
Then,
she regretted it.
Cold!
Very cold! 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
Piercingly cold!
Yun Jiuqing’s muscles and joints felt as if they had stiffened in that brief instant. It was as if she had stripped naked in the dead of winter and plunged headfirst into bitterly cold snow.
The whistling Yin winds were like knives, constantly "slicing" at her skin. Though they did no real damage to her, she felt an intense pain.
The air she breathed through her nostrils carried a strong sulfuric scent, making each breath an ordeal for her.
She could also distinctly feel that with every breath she took, the mysterious substance in the Underworld was subtly corroding her internal organs.
Yun Jiuqing realized why the Underworld...
was a place meant for tortured souls and evil spirits.
Because, humans...
simply could not survive in a place like this!
Even a cultivator like her couldn’t stay in the Underworld for long. If she lingered in the Underworld too long, Yun Jiuqing felt she would likely die there!
And then become one of the denizens of the Underworld.
Assimilated by the Underworld!
Yun Jiuqing mustered her courage, trying to open her eyes, wanting to see what the Underworld looked like—since her eyes had been tightly shut the whole time till now when she had finally gotten a little used to it and dared to look around.
Bleak!
Motionless!
Ominous!
Dim!
The first words that came to Yun Jiuqing’s mind encapsulated a place far grimmer than any desolate area in the human world. In comparison, a place like the Qintian Judiciary Dungeon was nowhere near as chilling as this.
"It’s... a bit... a bit chilly," Yun Jiuqing found her upper and lower teeth chattering slightly as she spoke.
She looked at Daoist Priest Fan, who seemed unaffected before her.
Overcome with curiosity, she couldn’t help asking, "Daoist Priest Fan, don’t you feel a bit cold?"
"Cold?" Fan Wu glanced back at Yun Jiuqing, who was hugging herself and shivering.
To tell the truth, he didn’t feel anything.
The mortal world outside and the Underworld seemed no different to him.
Is the Underworld cold?
Looking at Old Blue Ox, he said, "You’re not even as tough as this old ox!"
Yun Jiuqing: "..."
Yun Jiuqing incredulously looked towards Old Blue Ox, noting that it was not shivering at all.
It remained as calm as ever.
The expressions on its large bovine head were as tranquil as water, showing no sign of disruption, even having the leisure to snort. Its tail was swaying gently.
Yun Jiuqing: "?!"
No, that couldn’t be right?
It can’t be that...
just she is the weakest?
But then again, upon reflection, it seemed quite normal.
After all, although she was a cultivator, skilled in some martial arts and capable of fighting a few average people, her constitution was not as robust as that of an ox. If she really had such a strong physique, her body condition would probably be similar to those cultivators of the Great Yan Dynasty!
