After crossing over, he has no taboos among the zombies.

Chapter 1361

Before the cheers had even subsided, more cultivators, their eyes red with rage, rushed forward.

Some people brandished long swords and slashed at the shadowy figure's limbs, while others crushed talismans, causing them to explode into bursts of fire. Even several minor cultivators at the Dao Palace Realm exerted all their strength to unleash their spiritual power, condensing it into fine needles that shot towards the shadowy figure's vital points.

But this action completely enraged the shadowy figure.

It let out a deafening roar from its throat, and its black silk suddenly swelled several times its original size, becoming as thick as a water bucket, sweeping across the air with a whooshing sound.

"careful!"

Zhou Shan roared and swung his axe to block, but the black silk whipped the axe blade, sending him flying backward like a kite with a broken string, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Wherever the black silk passed, cultivators screamed as they were entangled. Some were torn in two, while others were dragged into the mud. In an instant, they were wrapped in the black silk and turned into wisps of essence, which were then inhaled by the black shadow.

In just a few breaths, dozens more people perished.

Qin He frowned; the shadowy figure's tenacity far exceeded his expectations.

He no longer held back; the demonic cloud millstone within his dantian spun wildly, and the demonic energy around him condensed into a jet-black longsword, its blade covered with intricate demonic patterns, faintly exuding an aura of devouring everything.

"drink!"

Qin He let out a low shout and his figure darted out like an arrow, dodging several black threads that came at him, and slashed at the black shadow's chest wound that was emitting black smoke.

This strike condensed a significant amount of demonic energy, imbued with highly lethal secret runes, and carried a sharp whistling sound that tore through space.

"Sizzle~" The blade sliced ​​into the shadowy body as smoothly as cutting tofu, and the black silk instantly lost its luster, breaking and falling off one by one.

The dark figure let out a shrill wail, and its massive body began to disintegrate, turning into a sky full of black mist.

Before everyone could catch their breath, the mud beneath their feet suddenly began to churn violently.

The bubbling bubbles merged together, as if a giant beast was rolling beneath them, and the entire space trembled slightly.

Another dark figure slowly rose from the swamp. This time, the figure was shorter and stockier, with denser black threads around its body and several wisps of dark red resentment swirling around it. Its oppressive aura was even stronger than the previous one.

"It's no use!"

A hoarse shout pierced the chaos, and an old man in a tattered Taoist robe floated in mid-air, his face ashen. "Below is the Netherworld. These things are bred by devouring the flesh and blood of the living. Kill one, and another will appear. You can never kill them all!"

"What can we do? Are we just going to wait here to die?" someone shouted in despair.

"No one can die!"

The old man roared, "As long as no one falls into the swamp and no one is swallowed up, the Netherworld won't be able to quickly breed new shadows, and we'll have a chance to break out."

These words struck like a thunderbolt, waking everyone up.

A cultivator in a green robe was the first to unleash his magical artifact, a jade lotus platform about ten feet in size, with pure white petals that emitted a faint spiritual light.

"Everyone, hurry up and get on! This lotus platform can hold twenty people!"

Immediately afterwards, someone threw out a bronze boat, its hull engraved with defensive runes, capable of holding fifteen people; someone else brought out a black iron floating platform, simple yet sturdy enough.

Qin He also casually conjured a black shield and gestured for Zhou Shan and the others to come up. This was a spoil of war, nothing particularly valuable, but it would be very useful here.

Zhou Shan, clutching his injured shoulder, jumped up with Liu Yuer, Zhao Xiaojia, and Wu Gou, panting heavily, and said, "Brother Wei, thanks to you!"

In a short time, more than fifty platforms were set up in mid-air.

Some were formed from magical artifacts, some were arrays set up by cultivators working together, and some were platforms temporarily condensed using spiritual power.

Everyone looked out for each other, pulling the lone cultivators onto the platform, and no one dared to act alone anymore.

Several platforms were close together, so the cultivators worked together to set up a light barrier, connecting the platforms to form a larger safe zone.

An elderly man with white hair led several disciples to set up a spirit-trapping array around the platform. The black silk was repelled by the array as soon as it got close.

There was also a group of body-refining cultivators who held hands and formed a circle, using their bodies to block the occasional black silk that attacked, buying time for the others.

On Qinhe's Demon Yuan Platform, Wu Gou gripped his curved blade, warily observing his surroundings. Zhao Xiaojia affixed the few remaining defensive talismans to the edge of the platform, while Liu Yuer bandaged Zhou Shan's wounds.

"This really works!" Zhao Xiaojia exclaimed in surprise. "Look, the shadow is taking much longer to form."

The group looked over and saw that the newly appeared black shadow was still slowly gathering, and the growth rate of the black silk had obviously slowed down, no longer possessing the rapid and powerful momentum it had before.

"Let's get started, before it's fully formed!"

Someone shouted, and the cultivators on each platform attacked simultaneously.

Axe blades, sword lights, talismans, and spells intertwined, forming a massive attack net that crashed down on the nascent black shadow.

Qin He also raised his hand and waved, sending out a condensed demonic energy blade that accurately struck the core of the black shadow.

"Boom!"

Amidst the explosion, the unformed black shadow collapsed and disintegrated into a cloud of black mist, which was then sucked back into the swamp.

Just then, everyone felt the spatial constraints around them suddenly disappear.

That invisible wall from before has actually broken down!

"rush out!"

Zhou Shan was the first to react, urging his spiritual power to control Qin He's black shield, and sped away into the distance.

Other stations also sprang into action, and although it was chaotic, they all fled in the same direction.

Qin He glanced back at the churning mud, his brows furrowing slightly.

The strangeness of this underworld was more troublesome than he had anticipated.

The group sped along, not daring to stop for even a moment.

At first, I could still see the platform next to me, but as the distance gradually increased, I could only see scattered points of light in the distance.

Qin He used his divine sense to investigate, but found that all around him was an endless black mud swamp with no boundaries in sight, and he could not hear any sound except for the sound of bubbles in the mud.

One incense stick, two incense sticks, half an hour passed.

The group had flown an unknown distance, but the swamp beneath their feet seemed endless, and the darkness above them remained thick and impenetrable.

"Something's not right." Liu Yu'er's face turned pale. "We've been flying for so long, how come we still can't see the end?"

Zhao Xiaojia panicked: "Could we be trapped in some kind of formation? How come this swamp is so big?"

Zhou Shan gripped the axe tightly, his eyes serious: "Don't panic, keep flying forward, we'll eventually find the boundary."

But there was also a hint of barely perceptible panic in his voice.

Qin He frowned more and more deeply. This swampy land of the underworld was like an endless cage, trapping them inside.

What's even more unsettling is that the mud below has started to churn slightly again. Although no dark figure has appeared yet, it exudes an increasingly strong sense of danger.

Everyone's hearts sank once again.
