Inverse Sword Mad God
Chapter 139 - 139 138 Netherworld Hall

139: Chapter 138 Netherworld Hall 139: Chapter 138 Netherworld Hall Three figures, crashed into the blood-colored gates.

Buzz—Thud!

The enchanting, blood-red gates slowly closed, shutting everyone else out.

“Ah!

My inheritance!”

“Damn it, why wasn’t it me!”

“That Lin Xuan is too lucky!”

Some martial artists clutched their heads and wept, lamenting their lives.

Among them, Zheng Jun suffered the most.

He had the highest cultivation and, as a direct disciple, held a revered status, always considering himself the foremost among these people.

Yet the martial arts inheritance, so close within reach, slipped through his fingers, and all he could do was watch helplessly.

And Lin Xuan, whom he regarded as an ant, was able to enter.

“This isn’t fair!” Zheng Jun roared inwardly.

He struck the red gate with his palm, but to no avail.

“Hmph!

I don’t believe you won’t come out!” Zheng Jun sat down, ready to wait for Lin Xuan.

He wanted to snatch the inheritance from Lin Xuan’s hands and torment him to death!

Seeing Zheng Jun sit down, some of the other martial artists also sat down, preparing to wait.

Although hope was slim, it was still worth a try.

Of course, not everyone stayed—some martial artists left sensibly.

There were other treasures outside; there was no need to wait for a nebulous inheritance.

Inside the blood-colored gates, it seemed like another world.

There were no green floors or solid walls but a cave, the surroundings all natural rock formations.

At the first moment, Lin Xuan took a defensive stance, his soul power swiftly sweeping in all directions.

Beside him, the woman in white was injured and somewhat weak.

She barely summoned her purple armor, forming a purple phantom that protected her body.

“Are you okay?” Lin Xuan asked with a concerned look.

The white-clad girl’s veil was stained with blood.

She removed the veil and then slowly shook her head.

Taking out an elixir pill, the woman in white consumed it, then began to heal while vigilantly scanning her surroundings.

Lin Xuan, seeing the woman in white’s face, was momentarily stunned.

He had seen many beauties—Murong Qianling’s aloofness, Tang Yu’s capriciousness, and Yin Qingyi’s shyness.

But compared to the girl before him, they seemed to pale.

Feeling Lin Xuan’s gaze, the woman in white’s face turned slightly pink, a hint of annoyance flashed in her eyes, and she couldn’t help but snort softly.

“Eh…” Lin Xuan scratched his head awkwardly, not knowing what to say.

“Hehe, boy, have you taken an interest?” A hoarse voice echoed in the cave, somewhat sinister.

“Why don’t we join forces?

Capture her—I’ll take the items, you take the girl!

How about that?” the voice reverberated.

Lin Xuan rolled his eyes in silence—did he look that eager?

After hearing this, the woman in white trembled and then looked at Lin Xuan with caution.

After a moment’s thought, the woman in white shook her lips and said to Lin Xuan, “Don’t listen to his nonsense.

He’s from Netherworld Hall.

His actions are very vicious; you must not fall for his schemes.”

Lin Xuan was slightly stunned.

It seemed the two harbored mutual distrust and dared not act rashly.

With the woman in white already injured, the black-robed man still dared not attack—it appeared this woman in white must be formidable.

He remembered the white-clothed girl who had effortlessly nullified Zheng Jun’s attack with just a finger, an action that was astonishingly beautiful and seemed to contain a kind of Mental Realm.

“Where is this, a Legacy place?” Lin Xuan didn’t answer the two, instead, he looked around vigilantly.

He used his Soul Power to survey the area and, finding nothing unusual, couldn’t help but feel perplexed.

“The space here is quite vast, and it seems there’s something inside,” Lord of Wine reminded him.

Lin Xuan nodded; he wanted to explore further, but he was worried about the two.

Especially the Black Robed Man – his aura was very similar to the black-robed youths he had killed in Lishan City, and he had also heard the words “Netherworld Hall” from General Zeng’s mouth.

As for the origins of the white-clothed girl, he didn’t know, but she didn’t seem like a bad person.

“This white-clothed girl doesn’t seem like she’s from this region,” Lord of Wine said leisurely.

“You know?” Lin Xuan was slightly startled.

Lord of Wine snorted lightly, “She is being suppressed by the space; she might truly have a Cultivation above the Spirit Sea Realm, and she’s about your age.

Do you think such a person exists in Xia Country?”

“Above the Spirit Sea?” Lin Xuan was astonished, then he took another two glances at the white-clothed girl.

That was truly terrifying!

To enter the Three Spirit Realms at such a young age; Xia Country indeed had none.

Feeling Lin Xuan’s gaze, the white-clothed girl shrank her body back.

She was severely injured now and was truly afraid that Lin Xuan and the Black Robed Man would join forces against her.

“Hehe, boy, have you made up your mind?” The Black Robed Man spoke up again.

“I think the current situation is pretty good, no need for anyone to make a move,” Lin Xuan shrugged, advocating for peaceful coexistence.

“Wait here for a moment, I’ll go ahead and take a look,” Lin Xuan didn’t want to break this balance.

Both the white-clothed girl and the Black Robed Man were not opponents he could handle – only by delaying could he hope to escape.

“You…” The face of the white-clothed girl showed indignation, and she glared fiercely at Lin Xuan.

The Black Robed Man was also stunned; he hadn’t expected Lin Xuan to not help either side.

“Do you know about Netherworld Hall?” the white-clothed girl said, “It used to be an evil force that brought disaster to numerous countries, and he is a remnant of the Netherworld Hall!”

“If you don’t kill him, he will eventually kill you!”

Whoosh!

A black light flashed toward the white-clothed girl, like a streak of black lightning.

Boom!

The Purple Armor burst forth with light, forming a tight defense.

Lin Xuan tensed his body, ready to retreat.

Both these individuals were stronger than Zheng Jun – he was a bit overwhelmed now.

“Heh heh, boy, what she said is true!” the Black Robed Man laughed, “Our Holy Hall indeed dominated far and wide.

If you help me, afterward, I’ll introduce you into the Holy Hall, and you’ll become a member of the Netherworld Hall!”

“You couldn’t handle her, and my Cultivation is even lower than yours, what can I do?” Lin Xuan didn’t understand.

“I feel a sharp Sword Intent in you; as long as we join forces, we can certainly break through her defenses,” the Black Robed Man said coldly.

“So that’s it.” Lin Xuan finally understood – both parties were interested in his Sword Intent.

“Young hero, you mustn’t listen to him!” The white-clothed girl, while healing, spoke urgently, “Netherworld Hall has re-emerged this time, surely intending to revive some old monsters!”

“He must be here for Life Essence; such stuff contains a powerful life force that can allow some of the old geezers of Netherworld Hall to come back to life, so he must be eliminated!”

“Life Essence?” A glint appeared in Lin Xuan’s eyes.

If Life Essence was so miraculous, then he wondered if it would work for Lord of Wine?

Lin Xuan quickly telepathically inquired.

“It should be effective, but if the Grade is too low, the effect might not be significant,” Lord of Wine responded slowly.

After receiving the answer, Lin Xuan fell into deep thought.

“No matter what, I have to try!” Lin Xuan decided to help Lord of Wine find Life Essence.

“I wonder what exactly you mean by Life Essence?” Lin Xuan asked in a deep voice.
