Chapter 37: Forcibly Robbing a Civilian Woman?

  "This second layer of Diyu is indeed very formidable. Could it be that this underground world of Youming, like our Tianyuan Continent, is also a complete civilization?"

  As soon as Wang Dao stepped onto this land, Wang Qian felt a sharp and keen divine sense power surging around him, spreading out in all directions before quickly retracting.

  "Not bad, look at this second layer of the world, many places have already built castles and villages, and the inhabitants of the netherworld are starting to gather, it seems like they've entered a new civilization from primitive society!"

  Zhao Changqing's eyes flashed with wise light.

  Wang Gan carefully sensed it and also felt that what they said was very accurate. This second layer of the underworld, compared to the first layer, had a big difference.

  The first layer of the world, a desolate expanse, was home to many malevolent creatures that congregated by ethnicity and roamed about, preying on weaker ethnic groups as their food source and cultivation materials.

  Recently, the Netherworld has undergone tremendous changes. In the lower world, many high-level creatures have emerged one after another, just like the Blood Night Rakshasa team that Wang Qian and others killed back then, which did not belong to the original first layer of the world, but came from a deeper world beneath the earth, even leading the original species of the first layer of the world, rushing out of the ground, and launching a large-scale attack on the Tianyuan Continent, killing countless living beings.

  But now the second layer of the world is completely different, looking still desolate, but has already begun to have its own social structure. Those scattered castles should belong to the ruling class, governing many other villages, giving a sense of order and discipline as a whole, no longer a loose and free mob.

  "It's very dangerous here, many yin-yang creatures have reached the foundation-building stage, we must be careful, otherwise being surrounded by a group of foundation-building yin-yang creatures will definitely end in disaster!"

  Huang Zheng's tongue was dry and his face looked a bit tense.

  As people improve their practice, their brains become increasingly intelligent, and they can make very accurate judgments about the situation around them.

  Having understood the environment they were in, Wang Qian and his group did not dare to be careless. After all, only three of them had the combat power of the Foundation Establishment stage. The other four, although they could dominate in the Pre-Heaven Great Round realm, were nothing compared to those at the Foundation Establishment stage. Generally speaking, even for a genius cultivator, it was a myth, a legend, to be able to defeat someone at the Foundation Establishment stage while being only at the Pre-Heaven stage.

  The main difference between the two lies in the fact that practitioners of the innate realm still use true yuan, while those who have formed a golden elixir at the foundation-building stage have already reached the level of fa li (law power) in their combat methods, which is a qualitative change.

  Not everyone is as perverted as Wang Qian, his combat power and self-cultivation are completely incomparable, the Nine Turns Body Refining Technique is difficult to cultivate, but it's really too terrifying.

  So now they think not of dominating, but of making a fortune in secret, by ambushing and assassinating the foundation-laying yin-yang creatures, and then getting rich rewards.

  Wang Qian and his team fought cautiously in the second layer of the Netherworld, like dark gods walking among the shadows, the perfect assassins. With their combined strength, they could kill one by one the Black Night Demons at the Foundation Establishment stage.

  The second layer of the world is inhabited by a large number of dark creatures, known as Black Night Yaksha. Every castle has a multitude of Black Night Yakshas living within its walls, and there are even many Night Yaksha leaders among them.

  In the second layer of the Netherworld, there is a massive mountain range that is entirely composed of a type of black stone. It is extremely solid and has very little vegetation on its surface. However, this place is often frequented by Netherworld creatures due to the presence of Netherworld Demon Stones. These stones are similar to the Spirit Stones used in the Cultivation Realm for cultivation purposes. Netherworld creatures typically cultivate by absorbing the Netherworld Demon Qi from the void, but the amount and concentration of this Qi are usually insufficient for effective cultivation. As a result, Netherworld Demon Stones have become a crucial resource for these creatures' cultivation needs.

  At this time, in a valley of the mountain range, a group of elegant and refined female Taoist priests were resting. They set up camp, stood guard, and kept watch with great orderliness. It was clear that their leader was no ordinary person, as they did things with rules and regulations, not like a mere ornament.

  In a temporarily opened stone cave, two women sat facing each other.

  One of the women, who appeared to be in her twenties, had a face that was as beautiful as a painting. Her eyebrows were slightly curved and her eyes were large and bright, with a hint of moisture that made them extremely alluring. Her nose was straight and her lips were red and luscious, forming a very harmonious face. Her skin was like jade, and there was a sense of seductiveness about her that was tempered by a sense of capability. Any man who saw her would not be able to help but be moved.

  There was also a woman, in her early twenties, with a delicate face and a mischievous look.

  If Zhou Qing and Wang Qian saw her, they would definitely be able to tell that this was the young girl from back then, Yunluo.

  "Li Meng, this won't do, we're really unlucky this time, running into a disciple of the Tianyuan Sect. That Xue Liang is despicable, actually wanting to force you back as his Dao companion!"

  Yunlu's mouth pouted high, obviously very unhappy.

  That woman with a face like a painting was also a disciple of the Qingyun Gate, named Li Meng. She lived up to her name, looking as ethereal as a dream, but now she wore a hint of sadness on her face.

  "Alas, I don't know what to do now. Although we have a large number of people, our cultivation is too poor. My master is not by my side, and that Xue Liang has already successfully built his foundation. None of us are a match for him!"

  Li Meng said that this is also very helpless, and being inferior to others in terms of strength is the greatest sorrow in the cultivation world.

  "Hmph, if it were Zhou Shixiong and Wang Shidi who were here, where would they need to be afraid of this Xue Liang? Truly, hmph!"

  Yunlu felt indignant and began to mutter about Wang Qian and Zhou Qing.

  She didn't say anything wrong. Nowadays, Wang Gan and Zhou Qing, anyone who comes, can probably beat Xue Liang to the point where his mother wouldn't recognize him.

  "Oh no, Li Shijie, Xue Liang has arrived and he's brought many of his fellow disciples with him!"

  A girl rushed in hastily, her anxious voice echoing through the stone cave.

  "What? He actually dares to come? Is he preparing to use force?"

  Li Mengqiao's face turned gloomy, and she suddenly stood up.

  Soon, a group of girls gathered together and walked towards the entrance of the valley, where they met a group of young men who were dressed up.

  These people were dressed extremely luxuriously, and their clothes had a faint glow of spiritual light. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that each person was wearing a top-grade spirit robe, which was extremely extravagant.

  "What's wrong, Li Shimei? Why are you rushing out to greet me like this? How about it, have you agreed to be my Dao partner? I knew it, I, Xue Liang, am also a genius. Now that I've successfully built my foundation and with the Tianyuan Sect behind me, the largest overlord on the Tianyuan Continent, how could you possibly refuse me?"

  Xue Liang is a handsome and elegant man, exuding an air of confidence and composure, with an aura that suggests he has everything under control.

  He took a step forward, looking up and down at Li Meng's body from head to toe, not missing a single spot, which made Li Meng extremely embarrassed and her face turned bright red with anger.

  "Xue Liang, I am a disciple of Qingyun Gate, and I will not agree to be your Dao partner either. Are you going to force me again?"

  Li Mengjiao shouted loudly.

  "Haha, Shuai Shixiong, you're not doing well, your charm has decreased. In the past, those girls would all flock to you, but this Li Meng actually dares to resist you!"

  "Yes, Shuai Shixiong, if this matter is known by other brothers in the sect, you will lose face!"

  The Tiānyuán Sect disciples who followed Xue Liang here all started cheering.

  Xue Liang's face suddenly turned gloomy, emitting a cold and murderous aura.

  "Li Meng, I'll ask you one more time, will you agree or not? I advise you to agree to my request, otherwise, all the young girls from Qingyun Gate, including yours, will be captured and sent to my junior brothers for their pleasure. As for what happens to them in the end, you can imagine!"

  At this time, Xue Liang suddenly tore off his own glamorous disguise and became ferocious.

  He's forcing the palace, taking the fate of a dozen Qingyunmen female disciples to force Li Meng to surrender. This move is extremely vicious. As soon as his voice fell, these women changed one by one, their faces pale and their expressions miserable.

  "You! You're shameless! My sister Li won't agree to you, so just give up on that idea. When my brother comes, I'll definitely have him teach you a lesson!"

  Yunluo's temper flared up, on the top of Yunling Peak, she was even more fierce than Yunshan. At this moment, her face turned bright red with anger, without considering whether her own strength could match Xue Liang and his group, she directly opened her mouth to threaten them.

  "Haha, your senior brother? Little girl, what is your senior brother anyway? Is he worthy of being compared to me? Never mind, today let me teach you a good lesson first, and then let these brothers behind me enjoy you thoroughly. Hopefully, by the time your senior brother arrives, it will be too late!"

  Xue Liang smiled slyly and walked step by step towards Yunlu.
