Chapter 949

"The Old Man didn't say that we were going to join the Immortal Abode," Penglai Island Master said with a smile.

"Is there another way?" They were all surprised.

"You guys know about the Nether Realm, right?" Penglai Island Master reminded them.

"It's said that the Nether Realm is the inheritance of the Primeval Underworld Emperor, and it's the top dark force in the Shangshan Star Area. Every God of the Nether Realm is known as a top professional killer, but in my eyes, most of them are trash, "Long Ma answered immediately.

Gu Chen's pupils contracted slightly as he fell into deep thought.

The term God of the Nether was special to him because it reminded him of Huangfu Wuji's Nether God Palace. He wondered if the two were related.

He knew a little about this force. When he went to Fu Wei Planet, some disciples of the Li people hired assassins from the Nether Realm to assassinate Penglai Island Master, but he killed them instead because they weren't strong enough.

It was said that Shadow Lord Meng Jianchou, whose Shadow Immortal Body was stolen by him, had slept with a saintess of the Nether Realm, which caused the Nether Realm and many other forces to hunt him down.

"What's so special about the Nether Realm?" Gu Chen asked.

"The Nether Realm is a special force in the Divine Realm. They recruit assassins all year round, and it's said that anyone who passes their test can become a member of the Nether Realm and be given the title of God of the Nether. Compared to the other Immortal Abodes, it's much easier to become a God Dao cultivator through them, "Penglai Island Master explained.

Jiang Baiming's eyes lit up as he praised sincerely. "Good move! Assassins are complicated, and many of them are outlaws. That's why the Nether Realm is more lenient with its members. Since the Nether Realm is a top-tier God Dao force, we might be able to go to the Divine Realm with them if we show enough strength! "

Penglai Island Master nodded as he looked at Gu Chen. "A few months ago, when we were still on the Li people's side, some assassins from the Nether Realm came to assassinate the Old Man. After the Old Man killed them, he got some information about the Nether Realm from them, which will come in handy."

"Island Master, you're so thoughtful. It seems like we have to go to the Nether Realm."

Gu Chen smiled. He was glad that the Island Lord had chosen to help him.

If it was up to him, he might not have been able to come up with a safe plan so quickly.

…

In the vast starry sky, there was not a single star, not even a trace of light.

A chilly wind blew, bringing with it wisps of black mist, causing this place to seem even more desolate and cold.

A sharp whistling sound broke the silence of the night sky. Many rainbows stopped at the edge of the boundless night sky. It was Gu Chen's group in disguise.

Penglai Island Master abandoned Li Menglong's appearance and changed his appearance to that of his when he was in the Dark Yellow Ancient Star. He looked like a kind and wise old man.

On the other hand, Jiang Baiming hid the eye between his brows and transformed into a middle-aged man with a resolute appearance, completely different from his original temperament.

Gu Chen, on the other hand, had turned into a plain-looking young man with a cold temperament. He wore a simple black robe and rode a black horse with an eagle perched on his shoulder.

The black horse was transformed from the Dragon Horse after it withdrew its power, and the eagle was transformed from the white ape.

After some discussion, they decided that both the white ape and the Dragon Horse's original appearance was too obvious, so they had to disguise themselves in order to avoid detection.

The Dragon Horse could disguise itself as an ordinary spirit horse, but the white ape and Gu Chen's partner were already famous. To be safe, the white ape turned into an eagle.

Originally, the Dragon Horse refused to let Gu Chen ride it no matter what. In that case, wouldn't it become his mount? It would be a disgrace to the Ancestral Dragon.

However, the fact proved that it didn't have the arrogance of a dragon. After Gu Chen promised to help it cultivate with the Star Core Fire and the white ape's plan to seize the treasure, it quickly agreed.

In order to enter the Heavenvoid Hall, it had become Li Xuanba's spirit beast. Now that it was Gu Chen's mount, it quickly accepted it.

Gu Chen rode it all the way across the starry sky, braving the wind and waves to get here. He felt very happy.

If both sides didn't hide their strength, it would be hard to imagine how much destruction they could cause on the battlefield.

"We've reached the outskirts of the Nether Realm. Someone will come to pick us up soon," Penglai Island Master said. Before coming here, he had contacted the Nether Realm through the channels left behind by the assassins he'd killed.

Gu Chen looked at the starry sky ahead. The depths were shrouded in black mist, and he couldn't even see his fingers in front of him. It looked like the entrance to hell.

His eyes lit up with a purple-green light as he grabbed a wisp of mist in the night sky and studied it carefully.

A moment later, he murmured. "They are indeed of the same origin …"

The wisp of nether demonic energy drifting in the night sky reminded him of the Nether God Pagoda he'd been to before.

After learning about the Nether Realm, he had some guesses. Now that he was here, he finally concluded that the Nether God's inheritance Huangfu Wuji had obtained came from the Nether Realm.

Destroying the Nether God Palace had been Gu Chen's ambition when he was young, but now he'd come to the Nether Realm and tried to sneak in. Life was truly unimaginable.

For a moment, he had a strange feeling that there seemed to be some unfinished karma between him and the Nether Realm.

As his thoughts ran wild, a strange bone bird flew out of the night sky in front of him, and a person of a different race sat on its back.

"You want to enter my Nether Realm?" the person asked in a cold voice, his words concise.

"Yes. Please lead the way, Daoist friend." Penglai Island Master greeted him with a smile and secretly stuffed something into the person's arms.

The person's cold expression softened a lot. He glanced at Gu Chen and Jiang Baiming, who were silent, and then turned around.

"Follow me."

He led the way into the Nether Realm, and Gu Chen and the others followed closely behind.

When they entered the black mist, they heard a sharp demonic sound, and there seemed to be many figures of nether demons dancing in the mist.

For a moment, Gu Chen thought he'd returned to the Nether God Pagoda.

However, he could enter the Nether God Pagoda in the past, let alone now.

He released his protective energy slightly, and the nether demonic aura around him couldn't corrode him at all.

Besides him, Penglai Island Master and Jiang Baiming didn't change their expressions at all. They weren't afraid of the nether demonic aura at all.

The weakest among them was at the early-stage Immortal King Realm, and they were mid-level Nether Gods even in the Nether Realm.

The person leading the way noticed this and couldn't help but pay more attention to them.

An hour later, they arrived at a floating godly palace in the sea of mist.

There was a square in the godly palace, and many cultivators had gathered there.

Judging from their outfits, they weren't assassins from the Nether Realm. Like Gu Chen and the others, they were here to participate in the test.

The person leading the way led Gu Chen and the others to the square and left. When they landed on the square, many hostile gazes fell on them.
