"The Tomb of Death?"

The Demon Fox’s expression changed abruptly.

The Tomb of Death was a well-known place within the Land of the Dead Tomb.

There lies a pool of water, unmoved for ten thousand years.

The depths of the pool are filled with extremely Yin energy, regardless of whether it’s Demon Beasts or the Human Race, once trapped inside, death is almost certain.

If one is not extremely skilled in controlling the Water Attribute, there is no hope of survival.

It’s incredibly terrifying!

"Even I can’t guarantee my escape from the Tomb of Death unscathed."

"How did that traitor get in?"

The Golden-Eyed Bear shook its head.

"At present, we don’t know either."

"Originally, we planned to catch him before he entered."

"But at the crucial moment, a master from the Golden Palace Clan intervened."

"The Golden Palace Clan???" the Demon Fox exclaimed in anger and shock.

"How did they know? And get involved?"

The Earth Dragon shook its head.

"We don’t know either."

"However, I’ve heard from subordinates that it could be the Human Race that leaked the information."

"That’s right, the Human Race is also involved."

"The situation is very complex now."

Hearing this, the Demon Fox’s expression turned extremely grim.

"It seems that this matter can’t be delayed."

"If the Holy Object falls into the hands of the Human Race, it will be a disaster for us Five Clans."

"We must strike first!"

The Golden-Eyed Bear nodded.

"I think so too."

"So, I had Mu Ying stay by the Tomb of Death for the time being, to guard."

"We’ll head over immediately!"

After hearing this, the Demon Fox contemplated in silence for a while, then said:

"Actually, there’s no need to rush."

The Golden-Eyed Bear and Earth Dragon were both stunned.

"What do you mean?"

"Why not be in a hurry?"

The Demon Fox calmly said:

"I also received information."

"The Fiery Fire Ape Clan has also sent people to capture the traitor."

The Golden-Eyed Bear curled its lips and said:

"That they should."

"Since the traitor came from their Fiery Fire Ape Clan."

The Demon Fox continued:

"Do you know who the Fiery Fire Ape Clan sent this time?"

The Golden-Eyed Bear and Earth Dragon were both stunned and shook their heads:

"No idea."

The Demon Fox solemnly said:

"It’s one of the Nine Ancient Apes, Xu Zhao."

"Ancient Ape Xu Zhao??"

The Golden-Eyed Bear and Earth Dragon both wore expressions of astonishment.

As members of the Five Clans, they were well aware of what the Ancient Ape represented in terms of status and strength within the Fiery Fire Ape Clan.

Sending an Ancient Ape clearly showed how furious the Fiery Fire Ape Clan was.

The Golden-Eyed Bear took a deep breath and said:

"If the Ancient Ape takes action, won’t the Holy Object be taken back by them?"

"They’ve caused such a big trouble, the Holy Object shouldn’t be left with the Fiery Fire Ape Clan."

The Earth Dragon also nodded in anger.

But the Demon Fox said calmly: 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"Have you ever thought, if the Holy Object falls into the hands of the Golden Palace Clan or the Human Race, what would be the fate of us Five Clans?"

Facing the Demon Fox’s inquiry, the Golden-Eyed Bear and Earth Dragon were speechless.

The Demon Fox continued:

"As members of the Five Clans, we must not let internal conflicts escalate."

"Otherwise, we will only exhaust ourselves while others benefit."

Hearing this, the Golden-Eyed Bear sighed.

"Alright, Demon Fox, you’re right!"

"In the Demon Clan, our Five Clans’ strength is too weak, even if allied, we are still insignificant."

"Therefore, we must endure."

"Good that you understand."

"Let’s go, we’ll meet Mu Ying and the others first!"

After saying this, the three sped off in one direction.

...

On the other side.

Atop a mountain peak not far from the Tomb of Death.

The white-robed beautiful woman from the Golden Palace Clan stood with her hands clasped behind her back.

Looking closely, one could see that her eyes were gleaming with a strange white light.

The white-robed woman belonged to the Spiritual Eyes White Phoenix Branch of the Golden Palace Clan.

This branch was most proud of their pair of Spiritual Eyes, possessing extremely powerful abilities to pierce illusions.

With her Spiritual Eyes, the white-robed woman was watching the two figures hidden at the entrance to the Tomb of Death.

These two were none other than Mu Ying and the Wild Bull.

As she watched them, the white-robed woman let out a cold laugh, then retracted her Spiritual Eyes and looked at her subordinates.

"Has Senior Huang arrived?"

The subordinates immediately replied:

"Not yet, but a quarter of an hour ago, Senior Huang sent a Sound Transmission Talisman, he should arrive soon."

The white-robed woman nodded.

"Good."

"Once Senior Huang arrives, we will act immediately and eliminate those two at the entrance first."

"You all restrain your breath now, surround them quietly, and encircle them first."

"Yes!"

...

At the same time, at the entrance to the Land of the Dead Tomb.

A dozen cultivators were flying through the air.

They entered the Land of the Dead Tomb and quickly made their way to the Tomb of Death.

Among them were Real Master Huang Tian, City Lord Lan, and others.

In this group, there were two members in the Divinity Transformation Realm, while the rest were mostly in the Nascent Soul Realm.

This level of power was quite impressive.

While flying, an elderly man in the Nascent Soul Realm spoke:

"City Lord Lan, are you sure the Fiery Fire Ape Clan we’re looking for is at the Tomb of Death?"

"That place is no joke, not to mention the extreme Yin energy in the Tomb of Death itself, but in recent years I’ve heard rumors of some Ancient Strange Species seen near the Tomb of Death, and that is no laughing matter."

"If they really exist, we might not even be enough to fill the gaps between their teeth."

Upon hearing these words, a bald man laughed heartily:

"I say, Brother Jing, if those Ancient Strange Species were really that formidable, why would they hide in the Tomb of Death?"

"Besides, with Real Master Huang Tian and City Lord Lan here, what are you afraid of?"

Real Master Huang Tian suddenly interjected:

"Everyone, you need not flatter this old man."

"If those Ancient Strange Species do exist, this old man’s strength may not even be enough to save himself, so when the time comes, everyone will have to fend for themselves."

After speaking, Real Master Huang Tian had a cold smile flash in his eyes.

These people actually dreamed of him being their protector.

What a delusion.

If danger truly arises, why would he care about their lives?

Upon hearing Real Master Huang Tian’s words, the bald man and the previous speaker both looked uneasy.

At this moment, City Lord Lan spoke up:

"There’s no need to panic, the tales of Ancient Strange Species are nothing but rumors."

"I had people investigate, and there were no signs of Ancient Strange Species, just some minor demon clan members."

Hearing City Lord Lan’s words, the crowd visibly relaxed.

But none of them spoke again, leaving the whole group in a tense silence.

...

"Die!"

Zhou Yu shouted coldly.

From within his body, his Qi and Blood Power surged forth, transforming into several strands of Qi Force, which overwhelmed the pack of wolves before him.

The wolves in front of him were struck by Zhou Yu’s punch; in an instant, several wolves were shattered completely.

The remaining wolves, upon witnessing this, were so frightened that they growled lowly and then quickly fled like a tidal wave.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu relaxed.

Then, he turned his gaze toward a distant muddy pool, where something resembling ginseng was growing.

Despite its unremarkable appearance, it exuded a faint Spiritual Light.

It was for this item that Zhou Yu had battled the wolf pack.

Now that the wolves had retreated, the Spiritual Medicine belonged to him.

With a swift movement, Zhou Yu appeared beside the Spiritual Medicine!
