Magma constantly splattered all around.
After falling for a while, Misha felt that his body touched a solid surface.
This time, he didn't feel the scalding sensation which he had experienced when he passed through lava. Instead, he felt a slight chill. The air was filled with the reeking scent of blood, and it assaulted his nostrils. He felt every pore in his body widen as an explicable sense of excitement overwhelmed him.
His blood-red robe looked even more ruddy in this bewitching environment; it seemed like blood was dripping down from it.
With every step he took, blood seemed to drip down from him.
The two of them walked quietly in this place. Misha squinted his eyes and proceeded in the direction which the intense fluctuations in his mind pointed him to.
Although the boundless area in front of Misha was blood-red, as he proceeded forward, his excitement grew.
”We will reach it… We will shortly reach it.”
Misha muttered, causing the expert following behind him to squint his eyes.
With every step forward that they took, they felt everything in front of them experience great changes.
Suddenly, a dilapidated blood-red tower appeared before them. The tower was covered in stripes and patterns. These blood-red patterns emitted a mysterious and peculiar fluctuation.
”Is that the Shura Tower?” Misha muttered.
Misha knew that the Shura Tower was broken; however, looking at its appearance on the outside he felt like it was intact. The terrifying fluctuation emanating from the tower suppressed the true energy within his body and thoroughly prevented him from stirring it.
This was the suppression effect which the Shura Tower had against every expert of the Shura Ancient City.
Misha's pupils suddenly dilated when he noticed that there was actually a person inside the blood-red Shura Tower, standing in front of one of its windows.
The man had a muscular body, and his blood-red hair hung loosely over his shoulder, fluttering in the wind. The man's ice-cold and heartless eyes were staring at them.
.....
”Bu Fang, kiddo, your Lord Dog had only slept for a short while, but in that time, you went to provoke someone from the Netherworld. You are still playing around as usual, aren't you?”
A manly and temperate voice resounded in Bu Fang's mind.
As soon Bu Fang heard it, he stiffened, and his eyes lit up. It was the voice of that lazy dog, Blacky… Had the plump dog finally awakened?
Back in the Illusory Spirit Swamp, Blacky ate something unknown and began to sleep when Bu Fang returned to the Imperial Capital. It had been sleeping since then, which had been a long time.
However, now, it had finally woken up! Moreover, it looked like the lazy dog was quite familiar with the Netherworld.
The Netherworld Ship who floated in mid-air emitted a stifling aura.
Whitey's entire body glowed, and the arrays on its armor flickered constantly; it wanted to break free of the woman's pressure.
As for Shrimpy, it seemed like it would awaken shortly because it was waving its sickles, albeit only slightly.
”This Netherworld Ship came from the netherworld, and that woman is also from the netherworld. It seems dealing with her won't be easy,” Blacky said.
Bu Fang felt like all the true energy in his body begin to revolve swiftly, and countless motes of light began to gather above his head, gradually forming an indistinct shadow of a… dog.
It was Lord Dog's appearance.
The woman's black long hair fluttered in the wind, and every strand of it resembled innumerable arrows that bombarded and shattered the space in its way. There was a thin slit in her forehead, and it seemed like a vertical eye would come out of it. A terrifying fluctuation was spreading from it.
Nangong Xuanhe ran out into a faraway place and rushed into the stormy sea. He revolved his true energy and poured it into a spirit ship and continued fleeing away without even turning his head around. He must flee, or he would end up dead.
The woman looked extremely terrifying. Her aura seemed like it would tear space apart. Such a feeling… Even an expert who had broken through three Supreme-Being shackles would be erased from existence if they dared to confront her.
There were no existences in the same level as her.
The Netherworld Ship… that cursed ship... he had, unexpectedly, run into it.
Bu Fang felt desperate at that moment; he didn't know for how much longer he could survive on, but he truly didn't want to die.
That woman's ice-cold eyes stared at Bu Fang, and her killing intent surged outward. A vertical eye appeared on her forehead, and it gradually opened up. As soon as it did, a light beam shot out of it.
The light beam distorted space as it streaked toward Bu Fang.
The pitch-black flame, which seemed like a lively spirit, spread into the light beam, winding around it.
Bu Fang's Ten Thousand Bestial Flames was suppressed by it, and the flames returned into his body. It had been utterly incapable of resisting the woman.
The shadow above his head strode forward in a leisurely manner. That manner was Blacky's signature cat-strides. The phantom image of a dog gracefully strode forward like a cat. Lord Dog really was as graceful as before!
Buzz...
That phantom image of Lord Dog, which had been formed by rays of light, stood in front of Bu Fang, and it raised one of its small paws.
Bang!
That light beam, which didn't seem like it could be stopped mid-way, forcefully slammed into Lord Dog's paw.
The entire island trembled intensely; it almost seemed like it would split apart.
Dreadful waves rose, and countless pieces of rocks shattered and dropped into the ocean because the ground had cracked open.
The black and eerie sail of the airborne Netherworld Ship fluttered in the wind.
The woman's black hair was also fluttering in the wind, but her pale face, which had no trace of blood within it, remained expressionless.
