Gu Chi was shocked.

The Nine Ghost Cult was incredibly powerful.

It was a top sect that was several times stronger than the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land.

In terms of power and strength, the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land's position in front of the Nine Ghost Cult was the same as the six blessed lands in front of the three grotto-heavens. In fact, the difference was even greater!

Therefore, the inheritance hidden in such a powerful ancient sect was naturally not something that ordinary people could imagine…

Gu Chi was having the same thoughts. After a long time, he calmed down and asked, "Uncle Rao, is there any way to get rid of this aura?"

The aura of the Netherworld was different from the traditional spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the world of immortal cultivation. Once orthodox immortal cultivators like them broke into a space filled with the aura of the nether world, their strength would continue to decline. Or worse, they would be continuously eroded by the aura of the Netherworld. Once they started to erode, the consequences would be particularly worrying.

The more he thought of this, the more Gu Chi clenched his fists. His face was filled with reluctance.

He did not want his cultivation to be cut off for no reason! He had worked so hard for his cultivation, and it was also the only thing that would help him when he fought for the position of Holy Lord!

Without a powerful cultivation base and combat strength, even if he had more resources, it would be useless.

The most important thing was that he must not be affected by the aura of the Netherworld. If that happened, he would fall into a state where he was neither human nor ghost. That was the worst outcome!

Rao Wuqing naturally had the same plan. He did not want to be affected by the aura.

However, he really did not have any good way to deal with the aura here.

If it was the Ghost Spirit Sect's level of Netherworld aura, or even a slightly higher level, Rao Wuqing would have a way to deal with it.

However, it was too strong here.

The inheritance of the Nine Ghost Cult was extremely powerful and terrifying. It could be on the same level as them. How could he, a mere half-step Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, deal with it?

It was also at this moment that his gaze landed on Huai An. Huai An could not help but feel a chill run down his spine.

"Don't tell me you want me to go up! No way! No way!" Huai An could not help but curse in his heart.

How could he fight against the other party's top-notch Netherworld aura?

He would simply be courting death!

This time, Huai An's expression changed continuously. However, it did not make Rao Wuqing give up.

As Huai An had expected, Rao Wuqing said bluntly, "Huai An, go ahead and test the waters. See if you can get rid of this aura and destroy the nether life here with the methods you learned in the Ghost Spirit Sect."

Nether life referred to an ecological environment that was dominated by Netherworld aura.

Although this was only a small area, it was clearly already in the initial stages of an ecological environment. As long as it took a step further, it would naturally be a complete ecological environment full of nether life.

The more they thought of this, the more they could not help but hold their breaths. For a moment, they did not know what to say.

They were basically sending Huai An to his death!

Huai An naturally understood this as well. He immediately revealed a pitiful expression, causing Rao Wuqing to feel a chill run down his spine.

"Are you going or not? If you don't, I'll kill you right now!"

Rao Wuqing glared coldly at Huai An, the viciousness in his eyes unmistakably evident at this moment.

The life of a young master of a blessed land was nothing to him!

Huai An's expression became even uglier. He wanted to struggle a little more. However, Rao Wuqing did not have that much patience. He kicked Huai An into the area, causing the eyes of the people around them to widen.

He was utterly ruthless!

This was completely disregarding the young master's life!

It was also at this moment that many people could not help but feel a sense of relief.

They had originally thought that the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land was targeting people like them who had hardly anything to their names.

They did not expect the people of the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land to target the young master of a blessed land!

It was awesome!

At this moment, Jiang Ming's expression did not change as he stared at the nether life. He did not care about Huai An at all.

"Friend, do you have the confidence to absorb all the nether aura here?"

The black sword could not help but be speechless.

"Bro, you clearly have a better candidate. Why did you choose me?"

Jiang Ming was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

"You mean… An'an?"

"That's right. That little girl, Zhu An'an, has the perfect physique for this. She is the best target to absorb the aura of the Netherworld… Of course, I can absorb it as well. However, who do you think will be more efficient?"

Jiang Ming pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It'll be better for you to absorb it. It's not a good time for An'an to reveal her identity and background. Otherwise, the master of this place will target her!"

This way, the black sword had nothing to say.

Indeed, once Zhu An'an revealed her true self, the master of this place would probably target her. To anyone who cultivated the path of evil, Zhu An'an was a high-grade material, tonic, or cultivation furnace.

Furthermore, the people from the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land were smart. Once they found out about Zhu An'an's background, they would definitely make a move. Normally, it would be fine. However, now that he had to deal with the ghostly mystic realm, he naturally did not have enough strength to protect Zhu An'an.

"However, don't be in a hurry to absorb the aura. Let Huai An test the waters first. In addition, when Huai An makes a slight move, you can also begin to absorb it and use him as a cover," Jiang Ming said concisely.

The black sword immediately understood that Jiang Ming was using Huai An.

At this moment, Huai An was staring at Jiang Ming.

He hated him! If he had not asked him to go forward, he would not have fallen into such a desperate situation!

Little did he know that even without Jiang Ming, the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land would immediately think of him if they encountered such a situation. He would not be able to escape his fate no matter what.

Now that things had developed to this point, Huai An naturally had no other choice. He could only brace himself and start fumbling around. After a long while, he slowly froze on the spot.

"Huai An, what are you dawdling for?"

Gu Chi was getting impatient.

Huai An did not make a sound, as if he had been frozen.

Very soon, Huai An's entire body was torn apart, causing countless cultivators to be stunned and feel nauseous.

Did… Huai An just die?

Even Jiang Ming did not expect this. He had originally planned to use Huai An as a tool. However, he did not expect Huai An to die on the spot before he could even take action!

"This nether life is terrifying!"
