The gray sky, without the sun, moon and stars, was filled with a strange hazy light, and the surrounding plants were withered and messy, as if they would never grow buds.

At this moment, there is a young man lying on the beach with his upper body and white bone chips sewn on his leather pants, and the waves have washed him wet, and his face is even more blocked by the brown hair, and he can't see clearly. There were three strange beasts tattooed on his back, and these three beasts were lifelike, but their eyes were very hollow, as if they had been detained alive.

He has been lying on his stomach like this for an unknown amount of time, and he doesn't even know whether he is alive or dead.

"Ahem, ahem..."Suddenly, he coughed a few times in pain, spitting out a large amount of seawater.

"You're awake. A voice came.

After vomiting the bitter sea water in his stomach, the first thing that caught his eye was the endless sea level, and then the boy was surprised to find that the water here was actually a strange gray, and there were torrents and tsunamis in the absence of wind.

Secretly sighing strangely, he opened his mouth and shouted, "Who is it, what the hell is this place?"

After some searching, he finally found a young man in a silver-patterned black robe and a strong man in red like a little giant, but their faces seemed to be covered by a layer of mist, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't see clearly.

Looking back, he forgot the face engraved in his heart. But he remembered everything the man had done to him, and he found himself in a strange environment.

"Welcome to the Netherworld. The black-robed man said.

"Netherworld?" Ao Zhan's face changed, although he was already a little prepared in his heart, he was still surprised, "This is really not the Ao Xia Continent?!"

"Naturally not, this is the Sea of Reincarnation. The strong man in red like a little giant let out a deep voice.

"Reincarnation Sea, I remember, you, it was you who abolished my cultivation!" Ao Zhan's face became more and more ugly, and he stared at the black-robed man with hatred.

"Haha, what's the pity of your little bit of Taoism?" the strong man in red laughed disdainfully.

"I'm asking you to start from scratch. The black-robed man said indifferently, "The three drops of essence blood you have refined have been smelted and transformed into one by me, and they will completely merge with you, and your cultivation will grow rapidly, I think this can be regarded as a rebirth." ”

"So, do I still want to thank you?" Ao Zhan squinted his eyes and questioned, his tone sour.

"No, I don't have to. The black-robed man smiled and shook his head.

"In the Ao Xia Continent, what do you mean by saying that I am not him? Who am I? Why does the old man Ao Tu say that I have no father and no mother? Tell me!" Ao Zhan suddenly remembered a little more and asked in a low voice.

"Your height determines how much you can know. I'm looking forward to how far he can transcend the new you. The black-robed man said to him.

"Height, the same height as you?" Ao Zhan stood up, standing straight.

For some reason, in the face of this unfathomable man, he had a stubbornness in his heart that he was unwilling to give in.

"Hahaha, when you reach my height, you don't need me to say more, you yourself will understand everything. The black-robed man grinned, and the little giant-like red-clothed man next to him also laughed wildly.

"Okay! I'll figure it all out myself!" Ao Zhan seemed to be thinking about something, and his expression became more and more crazy, "When he meets again in the future, I will stand on the same level as you, not be looked down upon by you!"

"Hey, that's arrogant!" the strong man in red laughed.

"Let's go. The black-robed man turned his head away, and disappeared into the void without a sound.

"I think it's interesting, but I have to pretend to be indifferent, you strange guy!" the strong man in red touched his chin and shook his head, and disappeared into the air strangely.

Looking at the place where the two of them evaporated like mist, Ao Zhan sat down, only to realize that his clothes had already been soaked with sweat. Although the momentum of these two people was restrained, the lack of qi still made him feel suffocated.

"I've got to figure it out!" Ao Zhan clenched his fists fiercely, his eyes glinting, he didn't even know that his nails had pierced into his palms.

......

It took him half an hour before he came out of his thoughts and looked at his surroundings with a cold face.

"It's really a dark and cold world, but why, I actually have a sense ......of familiarity, as if I've been here before," Ao Zhan thought with a frown.

He struggled to memorize.

In my mind, a strange place suddenly appeared, like a cave, in which a blood spring was tumbling like boiling water, and the surroundings were dark and dull, and even the earth and stones seemed to be red as if stained with blood.

"What is that place, it actually faintly tickles me. I have a gut feeling that that blood fountain will be of great benefit to me!" Ao Zhan's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, "But it's too vague, I don't know the exact location, I can't find it." ”

Just as he was thinking, there was a heavy hoof sound. He subconsciously leaned over and poked half of his head out of the weeds.

"It's a team of wolf riders!" Ao Zhan was taken aback.

These giant wolves were three feet long and one foot high, and their turquoise eyes were filled with bloodthirsty coldness. Such a huge demon wolf does not exist in the Ao Xia Continent at all.

On the back of each giant wolf sat at least two people, dressed in ornate armor and carrying swords and swords. Only one woman rode alone on a giant wolf. She has slightly curly red hair, wears a long black sheer gauze dress, and has a large snow-white patch on her chest. She had a delicate whip hanging from her waist, and her beautiful eyes looked around, indescribably cold and arrogant.

"Whew...!"

The giant wolf under her crotch suddenly raised its head and howled, its nose spewing white gas, making a snorting sound, and its eyes staring at the grass pile where Ao Zhan was.

"It's not good, it's been discovered!" Ao Zhan was shocked.

"Hide, hide, let me out!" the woman sneered, and pulled out the whip and circled it around her head, making an air crackling sound, and then the exquisite whip was like a spirit snake and whipped towards the grass pile where Ao Zhan was.

'Smack!'

Everywhere the long whip passed, even the earth and stones were bursting. Simply Ao Zhan dodged in advance, otherwise this whip would make him fall to the ground.

"Hey, what a fierce chick!" Ao Zhan prostrate on the ground, sticking out his tongue and licking his lips.

"It turned out to be an open-mouthed brat, saying, what are you doing sneakily hiding?" the woman asked with a sneer.

With Ao Zhan's arrogance, it was impossible to talk nonsense with her, but at this moment, he lost all his skills, and he was injured, and there were many people on the other side, and if he was not careful, he would fly into trouble.

"As I passed through this place, I heard the sound of chaotic hooves, and I thought that there was a monster at work, so I hid. Ao Zhan explained.

"Oh, is that all?" the woman asked, squinting.

"That's it. Ao Zhan said.

"But why don't I think it's as simple as you say?" the woman smiled again, and said, "You can escape my whip, it's not easy, tell me where you came from." ”

"If it weren't for my cultivation being abolished, let alone escaping this whip, I'm afraid you would have already been refined by my blood. Ao Zhan stared at her, thinking with a gloomy face.

"Hey, what do you see?" a tall man shouted with a sword and a finger at Ao Zhan.

"I don't have any background, I'm just a nobody. Ao Zhan said indifferently.

"Huh, nobody?" the whole group laughed.

"I have nothing to cultivate, I have no power to tie the chicken, what is it if I am not a nobody?" Ao Zhan pretended to be helpless and spread his hands.

"Iron Barbarian, you go check it out. The woman pointed at Ao Zhan with the handle of her whip.

"Okay!" the tower-like strong man answered, and immediately walked over, touched and scratched Ao Zhan's body, and pressed Ao Zhan's wrist again.

"Hey, Sister Lan, this kid hasn't even entered the underworld, and he doesn't have anything on him. The tower-like strong man said obscurely.

"Sister Lan, what should you do with him?" After the other man heard that Ao Zhan hadn't even entered the underworld, a look of disdain and disdain immediately appeared on his face.

"He's seen us, whether it's from the Hu family or not, and it's better to deal with it. The woman said in a weird way.

"Hey, hey, understood!" the rest of the group behind her laughed.

Ao Zhan's heart trembled, and he immediately felt the killing intent of this group. It's just that he didn't expect that this woman known as Sister Lan would be so decisive and ruthless.

"Prepare to fight hard!" Ao Zhan secretly decided. Regardless of his current state, there is no way he will be left to the mercy.

"Sister Lan, if you want to kill anyway, it's better to use him to throw stones to ask for directions, I think he is athletic, and he must be clever. Just then, a woman in the team said.

"I didn't even enter the underworld, but I was able to escape my whip, and my physical fitness is really good. Come on, the pathfinder is him. Sister Lan nodded and smiled.

Ao Zhan breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at the woman who spoke out.

"Anyway, at least it bought me a little time. Ao Zhan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

If you live, you have a chance!

After a day of travel, I finally set up camp. Ao Zhan was watched by one person, doing all kinds of labor. These people subconsciously regarded Ao Zhan as a powerless teenager, and they didn't even put handcuffs or anklets on him.

"Boy, add some firewood!" the iron barbarian shouted loudly, looking playful.

Ao Zhan lowered his head, and the murderous aura in his eyes flashed. He managed to calm down, and went over with a pile of dry firewood, and burned the fire to the sound of playful laughter.

"The discovery of the Netherstone Mine this time is a big opportunity for our Tie family, as long as we grasp it, our Tie family will have the final say in the future Black Iron City!" Tie Lan said.

"Netherstone Mine, Black Iron City, Iron Family?" Ao Zhan looked blank, but secretly remembered these words.

"Sister Lan, last time I was escaped by the Hu family in the mine, I am worried that this operation, the Hu family will be killed halfway. Said the woman who had previously proposed to use Ao Zhan as a pathfinding stone.

"Last time we had a head start on the terrain and time, but this time, we didn't have an advantage. The Hu family, after all, is not weaker than my Tie family in terms of heritage. The Iron Barbarian scratched his head, looking a little anxious.

"Don't worry, the elite of the Hu family has been managed to hold us down by the head of the family, and the Hu family we are facing will not suppress us in the realm. Tie Lan said lightly.

"With Sister Lan leading, naturally there is no problem. A group of flatterers.

Tie Lan's face was happy, but he waved his hand and said, "You still can't take it lightly, this mission is completed, and all of us will become the key cultivation objects of the family." But if the Hu family is allowed to get their hands on it, I am afraid that they will not be able to live in the future. ”

As soon as these words fell, the people of the Tie family fell into thoughts.

"Alright, everyone rest early and leave early tomorrow morning. Tie Lan looked around at everyone and said.

The sky gradually darkened, and later, it can be described as not being able to reach out and lose sight of five fingers. Ao Zhan stayed up all night, maybe because of his current situation, or maybe he didn't adapt to this strange world.

He didn't dare to cultivate, so he could only act at the opportunity.

Early the next morning, the Tie family and his wolf rode with Ao Zhan all the way to the southwest. During the period, the giant wolf passed through several mountains, and the giant wolf walked on the ground as if it were on the ground, and the speed did not decrease.

It wasn't until they came to a lush ancient forest that the Iron Wolf Rider finally stopped.

The trees here are tall and verdant, full of life, and they are not at all as withered and strange as the plants seen before the Ao War.

"It's this ancient forest, come with me!" Tie Lan's eyes lit up.

She rushed forward first, and the Tie family immediately followed.

"Let's go!" a Tie family member pushed Ao Zhan and shouted.

Ao Zhan's face was expressionless, and he walked forward very cooperatively.

After a while, a low hole appeared in everyone's sight. This cave is very hidden, the rattan hangs down to cover it, and the entrance to the cave is small, if it wasn't for Tie Lan's indication, Ao Zhan wouldn't have found it.

"Everyone, follow suit, one by one!" the Iron Barbarian whispered.

Tie Lan, who didn't make a sound when he arrived here, was the first to enter, followed by the Iron Barbarian, and then the Tie family's group. They left two people to take care of the giant wolf, and even Ao Zhan was urged by one person to climb in.

After crawling for less than ten minutes, the low and narrow tunnel suddenly opened up. Tie Lan and the others didn't care about the soiled clothes, and moved forward quickly.

There was some stagnant water in the cave, the air was very humid, and there was a rust-like smell that rushed to the mouth and nose, but the Tie family didn't care, and their eyes were shining.

After walking for a long time, it was not until the road ahead changed from a single road to nine forks in the road that the Tie family stopped.

Tie Lan's face became a little solemn, and she stared quietly at the nine irregular holes.

"Sister Lan, let this kid explore the way. The Iron Barbarian said unabashedly.

Ao Zhan's face turned cold when he heard this, he could feel the changes in the expressions and voices of Tie Lan and Tie Manzi when they arrived here, the so-called path exploration was by no means that simple, there must be extremely terrible dangers in these nine passages.

"Yes. Tie Lan just nodded indifferently, and didn't look at Ao Zhan at all.

"Choose your own!" said the Iron Barbarian with a calm face.

A nameless fire suddenly grew in Ao Zhan's chest, which was not only disgusted with the indifference of the Tie family, but also resentment of his inability to resist.

And the Tie family has become the target of his heart!

"Hurry up, don't grind!" the iron barbarian urged again, looking impatient.

Ao Zhan ignored him and carefully observed the nine holes.

"There is no difference between the nine caves, I have no cultivation now, I can't perceive it, so I can only choose one at random. Ao Zhan sighed helplessly in his heart.

Immediately, he casually stepped into the third hole.

"Wait, let's see if he is dead or alive, if he dares to play tricks, I will let him live rather than die!" At the same time, she flipped over and pulled out a small purple drum.

"Sister Lan, when did you poison that kid?" the Iron Barbarian asked in surprise.

"When you urged him into the cave for the second time, I took the opportunity to sprinkle Gu powder on him, and thousands of tiny Gu worms had quietly integrated into his bloodline at this moment. Tie Lan sneered.

"After being poisoned by the Heavenly Witch Drum, I don't have to worry about what this kid is doing. Another woman from the Tie family nodded.

In the dark hole, Ao Zhan slowly moved forward. It wasn't until he could no longer see the light of the fire behind him when he turned around that he stopped.

"The grooves in these cave walls are very regular, I'm afraid they are not naturally formed, could it be artificially excavated?" Ao Zhan muttered to himself as he stroked the cave wall.

"If I don't give them a response, they won't dare to come in, anyway, the danger ahead is unknown, so I'll just practice here. Ao Zhan sneered and made a decision.

He guessed the thoughts of Tie Lan and the others, but he didn't know that he had been poisoned by the Heavenly Witch Drum.
