In Bloodsin City's Yu Clan was a certain old woman. She spent most of her time in secluded cultivation nowadays, but today, she had suddenly appeared in the sky above the main hall of the clan after sensing a change in the city. She had a crooked figure and looked completely unremarkable, yet her eyes emanated an extremely sharp aura seemingly capable of piercing through everything.

She stared at the sky and observed the change happening. The look in her eyes changed as she muttered, ”The devilish aura is stirring. Is the Devil Domain trying to attack the surface again?”

At a different spot in the city was a ma.s.sive temple. Numerous monks could be seen chanting some religious scriptures; one Buddhist symbol after another formed in the air as they slowly purified the devilish aura hovering above the city.

An old monk who had been seated in meditation for an untold amount of years suddenly opened his turbid eyes and muttered, ”Amitabha. The devilish aura is stirring. Looks like trouble is brewing for the Bloodsin City yet again.”

Apart from these two, a few other concealed super experts had also sensed the change. They all did the same thing: tell their people to start paying closer attention to the Devil Domain. The moment anything happened, they would react immediately to prevent another devil invasion.

...

Not one of them had noticed that the devilish aura had actually seeped into the ground and had all converged at a certain tiny restricted s.p.a.ce.

Imperial Nether Prison.

This was a unique battle technique exclusive to the Imperial Nether Clan. Only those with a high-tier bloodline within the clan and the Nether Soul Domain would be able to awaken it.

The Imperial Nether Prison was an innate ability capable of summoning the Nether Soul Domain out of one's body and transforming it into a prison to trap one's enemies. The prison's owner would be an absolute master of the s.p.a.ce within it and would be able to freely do as he wished to those trapped within.

Any person who wasn't much more powerful than the prison owner would be completely helpless once trapped. This ability was in fact one of the main trump cards of the Imperial Nether Clan. Presently, Xiang Shaoyun was completely engrossed in the comprehension of this newly awakened ability.

The Imperial Nether Prison felt completely different to him than other battle techniques. He needed to train and comprehend any other battle techniques he wanted to use, but that was not the case for the Imperial Nether Prison. He only needed to accept these symbols for the comprehension to come naturally to him.

Finally, new ancient symbols stopped appearing. He then slowly urged his Nether Soul Domain to move. Instantly, the Nether Soul Domain flooded out of him and filled the room. It did not stop and even spread to outside of it. Both Du Xuanhao and Jin Wo were given a fright as they thought they were under attack.

Inside the room, Xiang Shaoyun was able to sense them clearly. He spoke to them through voice transmission, ”Don't worry. It's me.”

They calmed down after hearing Xiang Shaoyun's voice.

”Your highness, what power is this? It makes me feel very uncomfortable,” said Jin Wo in agitation.

”I feel like I am being restricted by something,” said Du Xuanhao with a frown.

”Y-young master, h-have you awakened the Imperial Nether Clan's innate ability, Imperial Nether Prison?” Devouring Ghost's surprised voice also rang out.

”You know about the Imperial Nether Prison as well?” Xiang Shaoyun asked in astonishment.

”Of course. This is one of the Imperial Nether Clan's strongest innate abilities. Looks like my decision to bring you here is correct. Continue your comprehension, but be discreet about it. Avoid attracting the attention of those old freaks in the city or things will become very troublesome for us,” said Devouring Ghost.
