Qin Jun, Chang'e, Nezha, and a messenger soldier swiftly rushed to Yumen Pass on the clouds and mist overnight.
Tai Bai Jin Xing, the Eight Immortals, the Descending Dragon Arhat, and one hundred thousand soldiers were sucked into a mysterious canyon, their fates unknown. How could Qin Jun be at ease, especially considering that the Descending Dragon Arhat was a formidable presence at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm?
"Be careful later, don't be careless!" Qin Jun cautioned, even the peak of the Golden Immortal realm encountered unexpected events. Who could guarantee that the strong of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm would not encounter any mishaps?
Qin Jun was puzzled. How could such bizarre events occur in his kingdom?
Even the peak of the Golden Immortal realm encountered mishaps. This canyon would likely plunge the entire southern region into panic.
Alas!
Wasn't his luck too bad?
It seemed that his good luck had lasted too long, and now it was turning.
Qin Jun sighed in his heart, while Nezha appeared excited, Chang'e remained indifferent as usual, and the messenger soldier was trembling nervously.
From the capital to Yumen Pass, it was very far for ordinary people, but very close for those at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.
In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, they arrived at Yumen Pass.
Yumen Pass was famous for its natural defenses. Qin Jun looked down and saw that the once magnificent city walls had disappeared, replaced by a deep and bottomless canyon. The difference in height between the two sides of the canyon was immense, reaching five hundred meters. Under the cover of night, looking down from high above, it resembled a black dragon crawling on the surface of the earth.
At the first sight of the mysterious canyon, Qin Jun felt a dizzying sensation, making him shudder.
"There are prohibitions hidden inside this canyon!" Chang'e spoke, her eyebrows furrowed tightly. Even she had such an expression, indicating the seriousness of the situation.
Nezha stared down, seemingly pondering how this canyon came to be.
According to Liu Bowen, the canyon appeared out of thin air. If that was true, who was behind it?
Qin Jun's brow furrowed deeper and deeper. He turned to look at the nervous messenger soldier and said, "Nezha, take him inside Yumen Pass."
Nezha nodded and with a wave of his hand, the messenger soldier's body flew uncontrollably into the city.
As a precaution, Qin Jun took out the Yin Soldiers' Tablet and infused it with spiritual power. Yin soldiers appeared in the surrounding airspace, ghostly and terrifying, emitting a green light, maintaining a cold state, which made Nezha and Chang'e involuntarily moved.
Qin Jun rarely used the Yin Soldiers' Tablet. Firstly, the Yin soldiers' effectiveness was limited, and the Yin soldiers with the strength of the Golden Core realm were no longer in his sight. Secondly, he did not want to frequently expose his trump card in the underworld.
For example, the Ox-Head and Horse-Face, he had not mentioned to anyone else.
"The ghostly soldiers, Your Majesty is truly ruthless." Chang'e said with a meaningful tone, which made Qin Jun's mouth twitch.
It was extremely cruel to refine ghosts into magical instruments, even in the demonic path, few people did such a thing.
Qin Jun was in a difficult situation.
"This item is called the Yin Soldiers' Tablet, a gift from someone else." Qin Jun explained casually. If Chang'e still didn't believe it, there was nothing he could do.
Chang'e nodded lightly without saying much.
After this little episode, they began to wait for the three Yin soldiers to return.
However, time passed quietly, and the three Yin soldiers still did not fly out, causing Qin Jun's heart to sink to the bottom.
Even the Yin soldiers sent down would encounter mishaps?
"System, can you see the origin of this canyon?" Qin Jun asked in his mind. Without absolute certainty, he really didn't dare to let Nezha and Chang'e take risks.
"This canyon is a prohibition that has been stimulated recently, but it is estimated to have a long history." The system's answer made Qin Jun curse. What was the difference between saying that and not saying anything?
"How to solve it?" Qin Jun continued to ask in his mind, "What are the consequences if people fall into it?"
"I don't know." The system replied sparingly.
Qin Jun mentally raised a middle finger to it.
At this moment, Nezha couldn't sit still. He said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, why not let me go down and try?"
Qin Jun hesitated. If even Nezha encountered mishaps, wouldn't his losses be great?
"It should be a small world inside!" Chang'e suddenly spoke, her age was much older than Nezha's, although she had spent most of her time in the Moon Palace, she had seen and heard a lot during the Five Emperors period.
Her words made Qin Jun feel a sense of relief. He asked, "Are you sure?"
If it was a small world, the Descending Dragon Arhat, Tai Bai Jin Xing, and the Eight Immortals might all be fine.
As for the ten thousand soldiers, Qin Jun couldn't guarantee, after all, the canyon was too deep, and they might fall to their deaths.
The soldiers of Da Qin generally did not have the cultivation base of the Foundation Establishment realm, so it was indeed possible for them to fall to their deaths.
"It should be correct." Chang'e said with certainty.
As soon as she finished speaking, Nezha took the lead and rushed down without waiting for Qin Jun's consent.
Qin Jun cursed inwardly and became nervous, muttering, "Don't disappoint me."
Chang'e stared at the canyon, her eyes fixed on it, lost in thought.
Qin Jun collected the Yin soldiers around him and put them away.
The night was desolate, and the cold wind was bone-chilling.
Qin Jun and Chang'e stood on the clouds and mist, waiting quietly, especially Qin Jun, who was extremely anxious.
About half an hour passed.
Qin Jun became increasingly impatient, even feeling the urge to go down himself.
Chang'e, on the other hand, remained calm, waiting with her eyes closed. Under the moonlight, she looked incredibly beautiful.
Suddenly, a golden light burst out from below, startling Qin Jun, who quickly looked down, and Chang'e also opened her beautiful eyes.
In the midst of the canyon, beams of golden light shot out, exuding a sacred and solemn aura, with faint echoes of Buddhist chants, driving away evil spirits. Qin Jun couldn't help but feel excited.
It was the voice of the Dragon-subduing Arhat!
"Break—"
Nezha's voice followed closely, and then the Hun Tian silk tore through the darkness and flew out.
Qin Jun breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the mysterious prohibition had not been able to stump him. It made sense, as the highest combat power in the Southern Domain was only at the level of the Golden Immortal of the Taiyi realm. How could there be a mysterious prohibition capable of killing a Golden Immortal of the Taiyi realm? If there were, this place would have long been a forbidden land in the Southern Domain.
Nezha flew out of the canyon first, followed closely by the Dragon-subduing Arhat.
"Why is it just the two of you?" Qin Jun frowned and asked.
Could it be that Tai Bai Xing Xing and the Eight Immortals had all perished?
Nezha suppressed his excitement and said, "Your Majesty, there is a great opportunity below!"
A great opportunity?
Qin Jun was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "What exactly is going on?"
"Just as Fairy Chang'e said, there is a small world below, containing countless celestial treasures, spiritual mines, and spiritual rivers. The spiritual energy inside is more than a hundred times that of the outside!"
Nezha's words widened Qin Jun's eyes. It turned out that it wasn't just luck, but incredibly good luck!
"Can I go down?" Qin Jun asked excitedly. If what Nezha said was true, it would truly be a great opportunity that could rapidly strengthen the Great Qin Kingdom!
