Peerless Taoist

A wall was broken open, and Lu Yu walked out from it.    

This underground palace was formed by countless walls, and every once in a while, there would be a change.    

Every time one of the walls was destroyed, another wall would grow out, seemingly endless.    

If one didn't know the structure inside, being trapped in this place, they would probably never have the chance to come out.    

"This demonic Qi is indeed extremely fierce, but it seems to be trapped by some kind of force."    

Lu Yu turned into a phantom and passed through a long corridor, arriving at a large hall.    

This was the center of the underground palace.    

A simple and unadorned hall stood on top of a dark rock. There were some bronze statues scattered around, holding candles in their hands.    

It was unknown how many years had passed, but the lights in the hands of these bronze statues had not been extinguished. Instead, they were still emitting a faint blue flame.    

Under the influence of this dim light, figures stood on both sides of the hall, unmoving.    

Lu Yu walked forward and observed them, but he found that these figures were all armored soldiers, holding long halberds in their hands, standing there quietly.    

However, these soldiers had clearly died a long time ago.    

The surroundings were filled with a thick death aura, and there was also a strong evil aura spreading around.    

"They've all turned into zombies, but luckily, they've been sealed." Lu Yu was shocked.    

He had taken in Star Soul Ancestor as a zombie servant before, but compared to these ten thousand year old zombie kings, it was nothing.    

The soldier did not move. Two sharp teeth were exposed under his greenish-grey skin.    

Every soldier had a Fu Lu on their forehead. Even after tens of thousands of years, Fu Lu's power still remained.    

However.    

Although these zombies were powerful, it wasn't worth it to let Fire God Zhu Rong attack them personally.    

Obviously, there was an even more powerful being sealed in this underground palace.    

"Who is it? Sneaking around there, come out!"    

Suddenly, a loud shout exploded beside Lu Yu's ear.    

Lu Yu turned around. It turned out that it was the people of the Xiao family. They walked over with faces full of fear.    

There were even fewer of them. Including Master Dou, there were only nine of them.    

There was still a trace of blood on Xiao Qing's face. Even the vestment on her body was slightly damaged. Obviously, she had just gone through a fierce battle.    

"It's actually you! You're still alive?" When Xiao Yuan saw Lu Yu, his face was filled with disbelief.    

Especially when he saw that Lu Yu didn't have any injuries on his body, his eyes became even more incredulous.    

Along the way, they had seen too many strange looking Demonic Beasts. The Demonic Beast here was even more terrifying and troublesome than the ones in the outside world. After paying the lives of a few disciples of the Xiao Family, they finally found this relatively safe place.    

"No wonder you separated from us after coming in. It turns out that there's a shortcut!" Xiao Yuan looked at Lu Yu coldly.    

Lu Yu shook his head and did not explain further.    

"I told you, this place is very dangerous. But since you guys have come in, follow me closely and don't wander around. " Lu Yu continued to remind them.    

If these people from the Xiao family were courting death, Lu Yu wouldn't care about them.    

However, if they were to touch some kind of taboo, it might cause unnecessary trouble.    

"Who do you think you are? This is the territory of our Xiao family. Even if there is a fortuitous encounter, it will be our Xiao family who gets it first!"    

Xiao Yuan led the group and headed toward the depths of the hall.    

Lu Yu ignored Xiao Yuan and turned his head to ask Xiao Qing, "What did you discover along the way?"
