In a dark and gloomy cave, an illusory figure was seated cross-legged on a stone platform.
Her body was like a divine soul, but it was not a divine soul.
It was between the illusory and the real.
Her body emitted a faint cold aura.
Suddenly, her body solidified, and a solemn expression appeared on her beautiful and cold face.
She shouted in a low voice, "Who is it?"
A gentle voice was heard in reply.
"Hello, little friend. I was looking for a fated person through the Great Dao. Little friend, you have the honor of coming into contact with me. I wonder which race you are from and what is your cultivation level?"
"Who are you?"
"I am the Daoseeker. Are you willing to provide me with that information? I have a Great Dao Communication Group, and there are fellow Daoists in the Dao realm there. Are you willing to join us?"
His voice was gentle and did not contain any hostility. He spoke in the tone of a kind senior.
Daoseeker?
Yousu's heart trembled. She was weighing the pros and cons of this matter. Should she join him or not?
Could this be a trap?
In the end, she still could not resist the temptation of a great opportunity to befriend a Daoseeker. She opened her mouth and said, "I am You Su. I have reached the thirteenth level of the Dao realm and hail from the Netherworld race."
You Su?
Chu Xuan had never heard of her or her race before. They should be one of the minor races in the nine zones.
However, how could a race with an expert at the thirteenth level of the Dao realm be unknown?
Was it because they were too low-key?
A thirteenth-level Dao realm expert, other than Chu Xuan, would be ranked second to last in the Great Dao Communication Group.
Even so, she still exceeded Ying Kong by a country mile.
Chu Xuan could not help but mourn for Ying Kong. The first person to enter the Great Dao Communication Group seemed destined to remain at the bottom.
"Little friend You Su, I'll add you to the Great Dao Communication Group."
Chu Xuan then added You Su into the group of Great Dao.
"We have a new member, little friend You Su from the Netherworld race. Her cultivation base is at the thirteenth level of the Dao realm."
Chu Xuan introduced her to the group.
Hong Yuanchu actually appeared out of the blue.
"The Netherworld race? Were they not defeated and destroyed during the previous Daoyuan? There's still a Dao realm existence among them?"
Ruo Xian continued, "Since there are still Dao realm existences among them, why wasn't the Netherworld race active in the last Daoyuan? Could it be that little friend You Su reached the Dao realm in the last Daoyuan?"
You Su's heart trembled. She sensed the names of the members of the Great Dao Communication Group.
Hong Yuanchu?
The great ancestor of the human race?
Shu Yang, Hong Yuanchu's best friend?
At a glance, all of them were top-tier experts, and their strength was far above hers.
Especially the three Daoyuan realm experts!
They were legendary existences.
"You Su greets the great ancestor of the human race and the seniors!"
Hong Yuanchu said emotionally, "During the previous Daoyuan, the Netherworld race was also a powerful race, Their possession ability was especially problematic. Many human geniuses were possessed by the members of the Netherworld race and caused a lot of trouble."
You Su was silent.
An extremely powerful ancestor of the Netherworld race had died at Hong Yuanchu's hands.
"Little friend You Su, there's no need to worry. Since the Great Dao has left a sliver of hope for the Netherworld race, we won't exterminate them. The grudges from back then have already vanished into thin air!"
Hong Yuanchu continued to speak.
You Su heaved a sigh of relief.
She was afraid that an expert at the level of Hong Yuanchu would once again attack them after finding out that the Netherworld race still existed. That would definitely be a catastrophe.
"Many thanks, Senior Hong!"
You Su hurriedly thanked him.
Ying Kong looked at the message in the group and almost burst into tears.
Another new member had joined the group, but he was still ranked dead last.
Everyone in the group was a big shot. Only he was trash!
Ying Kong seemed to sense the Great Dao's deep malice toward him!
Before entering the Great Dao Communication Group, he was an existence at the level of an ancestor. He was extremely powerful.
There were many people who tried to curry favor with him.
He was a peerless expert of the third level of the Dao realm!
However, after entering the Great Dao Communication Group, he discovered that the third level of the Dao realm was just a slightly bigger ant. It was an existence akin to a bottom feeder.
"Ying Kong greets Sister You Su!"
Ying Kong hurriedly greeted the new member. He had to build a good relationship with her.
Everyone in the group was a big shot. Perhaps in the future, he would have to rely on the support of this group of friends.
Especially those few big shots who had opened Dao paths.
If he was attacked by Dao realm experts who were stronger than him, he could bring out the backers in the group!
Chu Xuan silently watched the chat group the entire time.
The Netherworld race?
It seemed that this race was defeated during the last Daoyuan and almost exterminated.
It was not surprising then that, even though they possessed a Dao realm expert, no one in the nine zones had ever heard of their existence.
They were probably hiding in some corner of the nine zones, struggling for their lives.
Moreover, they were afraid that others would find out about their existence and completely exterminate the Netherworld race.
In the long history of the nine zones, no one knew how many races had perished.
Neither did anyone know just how many races were left on the verge of extinction, struggling to survive.
Currently, the three races that ruled the nine zones were the human, demon, and monster races.
Chu Xuan could not help but think about Demon Buddha at this moment. His plan was to turn demons into Buddhists. Would the demon race end up like the current Netherworld race in a few years?
The Buddhist race would replace the demon race.
The demon race seemed to be in a state of decline compared to its peak back then.
Within the nine zones, only the human race was still in its peak state.
What would happen when this Daoyuan reached its end?
Would a new race rise up during the next Daoyuan?
Chu Xuan did not know what the end of Daoyuan meant or what kind of impact it would bring.
He had a premonition that the end of Daoyuan would mean the end of an era. Something big would definitely happen.
There were new members in the Great Dao Communication Group. You Su's arrival made the group lively again.
Ying Kong, Hu Tai, and the others were mostly curious about the Netherworld Race.
When they reached the Dao realm, the Netherworld race was no longer active in the nine zones, so they had never come into contact with the Netherworld race.
At the border between the Southern Region and the Eastern Region, somewhere in the middle of a vast mountain range, a disheveled figure was staggering forward.
His pale face was filled with extreme anger and resentment, and his eyes were bloodshot.
His aura was chaotic. It was obvious that he had suffered some serious injuries.
"Evil Son!"
The little evil king gritted his teeth, and his face was twisted with resentment.
He held a communication talisman tightly in his hand, and the message on it told him that the Evil King had fallen!
"Evil Son, I must kill you!"
The little evil king roared and cried bitterly as he continued to make his way forward.
However, he sensed an increasingly dangerous aura behind him, and felt despair. With his current strength and his heavily injured body, there was no way he could escape!
Plop!
Suddenly, he staggered and fell to the ground.
Plop!
He spat out a mouthful of blood.
An illusory figure suddenly appeared before his eyes. It seemed to be a divine soul, but it was different from a divine soul.
The little evil king's pupils constricted as he hurriedly stood up. He was wary of the figure in front of him.
The figure gradually solidified and a pale-faced young man appeared before him. He looked at the little evil king as if he was deep in thought.
The little evil king was secretly alarmed. The young man looked like a human, but he did not have the aura that a human should have.
His body exuded a faintly cold and gloomy aura.
He was not a human!
The little evil king retreated in fear. He was now heavily injured, and it was easy for the other party to take advantage of the situation.
"Not bad. With this identity, I'll be able to explore the world," the young man muttered to himself.
Then, his figure turned into an illusory shadow and suddenly pounced toward the little evil king.
"Get lost!"
The little evil king raised his hand and attacked. However, the attack directly passed through the illusory figure and did not stop the other party at all.
Pfft!
In an instant, the little evil king felt as if he had been possessed by something. His body gradually lost control and his mind and will were restrained.
It was as if, in the next moment, his mind and will were about to be devoured and assimilated!
