Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 1554: Chapter 1554: Undercover in the Immortal Sect (23)

”Do you know what this means?”

The Black-Robed Demon endured the pain: ”What does it mean?”

Chuzheng: ”It means you are too weak.”

The Black-Robed Demon: ”...”

You not only beat me, but you also insult me!!

We are of the same kind, is it necessary to do this?

Rumble—

The sudden shaking of the ground almost made Chuzheng lose her balance.

Dust fell softly inside the Underground Palace, and things around shook incessantly.

The Black-Robed Demon seemed to have waited for something, cracked a smile, revealing a sinister grin: ”Even if you catch me, so what? It’s all over now.”

Chuzheng steadied herself: ”What do you mean?”

”Hahaha...”

The Black-Robed Demon’s laughter was sharp and eerie, echoing into the depths of the Underground Palace and slowly returning.

Chuzheng bent down, grabbed the Black-Robed Demon’s collar, her brow filled with cold ferocity: ”What else have you done?”

”Hahahaha...” The Black-Robed Demon only laughed, almost breathless, then he stopped.

The Black-Robed Demon darkened his face: ”That Dong Lin is above, right? He’s about to help me unlock the seal. What if I die? Aren’t these Demon Spirits still getting out? Having so many die with me, it’s not a loss.”

Chuzheng: ”...”

”Aren’t those Humans proud of being clever and powerful? In the end, they were all deceived by me, hahahaha...”

The Black-Robed Demon paused his laughter, looking greedily at Chuzheng: ”You join forces with me, when I ascend to the throne of the Demon King, how about I share half the land with you?”

Chuzheng’s face turned cold: ”Aren’t you afraid of death?”

”...”

How could he not be afraid?

It was just a tactic earlier.

Chuzheng carefully thought over those few sentences from the Black-Robed Demon, seemed to realize something, and directly turned away to leave.

”Hey, can I start now?” asked the Demon Spirits behind.

”As you please.”

”Hehehe...”

”Don’t come over, what do you want?! We are of the same clan!!”

”Yes, that’s why I want to be with you forever, hehehe.”

Chuzheng walked quickly, soon the sound behind her could no longer be heard.

This Underground Palace has two identical layers.

Chuzheng quickly found the altar identical to the one above based on her memory from entering the upper layer.

There’s nothing on this altar, just a light seeping out from the cracked altar.

The altar above should be fake.

Chuzheng, being a demon herself, had no way with this altar, she immediately returned to the upper layer.

Rumble—

The ground shook more violently, stones continuously falling from above.

Chuzheng swiftly traversed the corridor.

Entering that place, she saw at a glance the man being attacked by countless Demon Spirits, several of the pillars on the altar had collapsed.

Previously, the place was filled with a bloody atmosphere but still somewhat resembled a Land of Seals.

Yet now, only the sinister aura and the presence of Demon Spirits remained.

Dong Lin was surrounded by Demon Spirits, the ones close to him were chopped down one by one.

Chuzheng raised her hand, the silver line in the air tensed, Dong Lin felt the pulling force on his wrist, and abruptly looked towards Chuzheng.

As soon as he saw her clearly, Chuzheng twirled her wrist, yanking the silver line hard.

Dong Lin was pulled out of the circle of Demon Spirits, seeing this, the Demon Spirits roared and lunged forward.

Chuzheng quickly embraced Dong Lin, swiftly retreating, her long sleeves fluttering as silver light undulated like starlight.

Crash—

A stone from above fell down, perfectly blocking the entrance.

Only then did Dong Lin react: ”This place is fake.”

”Below.” Chuzheng released him: ”Move.”

Dong Lin: ”???”

-

Outside.

The Sect Master and several others were almost unable to hold on, the turbid energies incessantly battered against the barrier they set up, stronger than they had anticipated.

”Sect Master, hasn’t Immortal Venerable Dong Lin finished yet?”

”...”

How could the Sect Master know what’s happening below?

”Everyone hold on, no matter what, we must hold until Dong Lin reinforces the seal!”

Everyone was anxious, channeling more energy into it.

However, such a large array consumed too much power, after what seemed like a long time, someone could not hold on, staggered badly, leaving a gap exposed.

Seeing this, someone next to them immediately stepped up.

The Sect Master glanced at that person: ”Hang on!”

The person steadied themselves, took a deep breath, and stepped up once more.

Reinforcing the seal doesn’t take much time, it can proceed slowly afterward, so how hasn’t it been completed yet?

Moreover...

The Sect Master felt the thing below was about to emerge.

Could the seal be broken?

Thinking of this, the Sect Master was filled with chilling fear.

How many Demon Spirits are suppressed below?

If the seal were broken, the Cultivation World, and even the entire Human Realm, would fall into endless war.

Just as everyone was about to collapse, people arrived from afar on swords.

Members from various sects arrived one after another, seeing the scene, they quickly joined in without wasting time.

With such strength injected, the Yun Sect members found it much easier.

”What’s going on?” Someone asked amidst the chaos.

”It was like this when I arrived, it’s not clear yet.” The Sect Master said: ”Dong Lin has already gone down to reinforce the seal.”

Rumble—

From the mountain bottom, a muffled sound echoed, shaking the entire peak.

No one dared relax, guarding cautiously.

Rumble—

The shaking grew more severe.

Everyone felt the dark energies below surging upwards, as if hearing the Demons’ roars.

Someone’s expression changed.

”The seal...seems broken!!”

The Demons’ roars grew louder, everyone heard them, extremely clear.

”No! Everyone stay focused!!” The Yun Sect Master shouted loudly.

The mass of dark energy surged quickly, rushing toward the top—

Just as everyone thought they would face impact, the dark mass suddenly sank again, as if something below was dragging them back.

Within moments, the entire mountain peak cleared up.

Everything became peaceful and serene.

Is it over?

After waiting a while, confirming nothing was wrong, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The Sect Master did not withdraw everyone, leaving some to guard against unforeseen events, while the others landed on the ground.

”What’s going on? Everyone was dead?”

”Is anyone alive?”

”Wasn’t the letter previously saying the seal was just loosened? Why is it so serious?”

”Right, Sect Master Lu, you were the first to arrive, what exactly happened?”

Sect Master Lu...or rather the Yun Sect Master, was surrounded and constantly questioned about what happened.

Yet, Sect Master Lu knew little, it was already like this when he arrived.

Amidst the discussion, someone spotted another approaching from afar.

”Immortal Venerable Dong Lin.”

”Immortal Venerable Dong Lin...”

Dong Lin and Chuzheng walked over, nodding slightly in greeting.

”How’s the seal?” someone asked urgently.

”The seal is temporarily stabilized, still cannot...”

Before Dong Lin finished, someone interrupted: ”What? Didn’t you reinforce the seal?”
