Chapter 603: Chapter 188: Witch Immortal: Why is it you again? Qiulong Temple’s Fan Wu!! (10,000 characters mega Chapter, please subscribe)_1
This place didn’t seem to be inside a mountain cave at all, but rather as though through that cave, one had blinked and arrived in another realm.
An eerie yin energy was constantly spreading around, shrouding the entire area in a layer of white mist. This thick white mist was in fact yin energy that had become so dense it had materialized!
Liu Feng felt his whole body was very cold.
He thought that if he had not been a cultivator, he might have fallen ill just from the gusts of yin energy.
But even though he was just barely a cultivator, in this environment dense with yin energy, he still found it somewhat unbearable.
It made him shiver uncontrollably.
Even his eyelashes were coated with a layer of ice crystals.
"Good... goodness..." Liu Feng’s voice trembled as he muttered to himself, "What on earth is this place, and what is a Witch Immortal’s lair?"
His subconscious told him that he had come to an incredibly formidable place.
And in his mind, it was as if a voice.
Was urging him.
To leave quickly.
The problem was!
Looking back with a bitter expression and tears he couldn’t cry, Liu Feng saw that there was no cave entrance behind him. That is to say, he had no way to leave from that direction.
He...
Regretted it!
"Daoist Priest Fan, is this place... the lair of the Witch Immortal?" Yun Jiuqing asked with a voice filled with shock yet tinged with curiosity.
She was aware of what a Witch Immortal was.
That was an evil deity from the countryside! And no matter how rural the evil deity was, it was not something she could overcome!
Yun Jiuqing was still somewhat dazed to this day.
She had never imagined...
That a humble temple could conceal such a tremendous secret. A cave at the back of the temple actually led straight into the lair of the Witch Immortal! How astounding was that?
"There’s more than a ninety percent chance," Fan Wu said, with every breath he took, he could sense the very intense aura of the Witch Immortal. This sense of immediacy was as if the physical body of the Witch Immortal was within arm’s reach.
Especially the intensity of this aura, even the descent of the Witch Immortal could not match it by half!
Considering this.
Fan Wu essentially deduced that he had arrived at a highly formidable place.
Looking around.
Fan Wu knew the realm he found himself in was none from nearby Longhe Temple, and it was very possibly not within any region of Great Zhou, it might even not belong to the human world. It seemed instead to be placed within a bizarre interstice, where he could sense both the presence of the human world and that of the Underworld.
Apart from Fan Wu and the others, there was not a single living thing around them, not even a mosquito to be found.
Originally.
When Fan Wu had met the Divine Envoy of The Great Revered One, the desolate place where he had been still had a few stubbornly dry and yellow weeds.
Now.
Forget about a few dry and yellow weeds, there wasn’t even a single withered leaf to be found.
"An interstitial microcosm!" At this moment, Xing Fengzi suddenly exclaimed, "I... I think I have seen a description of similar places in an ancient text at Di Zu Guan! It’s said that the barrier between the human world and the Netherworld is not quite solid, and that the barrier separating these realms is often breached."
"At the same time, within the layer that separates the human world and the Netherworld, powerful beings with supernatural powers can use their formidable might to forcibly create an interstitial microcosm!"
"Such an interstitial microcosm, which belongs neither to the human world nor the Underworld yet belongs to both, is an extremely complex and indescribable existence," he continued.
Xing Fengzi paused before adding, "Within such an interstitial microcosm, ordinary cultivators will find it more than ten times harder to mobilize the mana within their bodies than in the human world!"
"Moreover, the great being with supernatural powers who created this interstitial microcosm possesses the might to control this microcosm!"
"He is the creator god of this microcosm!"
Xing Fengzi’s tone was filled with horror as he visibly tensed, "If I’m not mistaken, this place should indeed be one such interstitial microcosm. The one that Witch Immortal, mentioned by Daoist Fan Wu and Yun Scholar, has created – an incredibly strange interstitial microcosm!"
After his words fell.
Yun Jiuqing hurriedly tried to mobilize the mana within her meridians, only to find that it was exactly as Xing Fengzi had described.
Yun Jiuqing felt as though her meridians were clogged like a stuffed nose.
Although not completely blocked, mobilizing mana had become very difficult.
This also meant that her strength would be significantly reduced!
It was cut by more than half!
"Doesn’t this mean we’ve blundered into a tiger’s den?" Yun Jiuqing’s forehead beaded with cold sweat as she said, "With our strength reduced, and this place fully controlled by the Witch Immortal, doesn’t it mean that we don’t have the advantage of time, location, or people on our side?"
Yun Jiuqing knew how terrifying the Witch Immortal was, for she nearly perished at the hands of its followers when she was in Yinghe Prefecture.
In Shuize County, she had seen firsthand the methods of the Witch Immortal, who could inconspicuously take complete control over an entire county, which was simply inconceivable.
Presently.
She had ventured into the lair of such a fearsome rural evil deity.
How could Yun Jiuqing not panic?
Even though she knew Daoist Fan Wu was very powerful, she still couldn’t help but feel panicked. After all... Daoist Fan Wu being strong had seemingly little to do with her, Yun Jiuqing, being strong.
