Chapter 259: Chapter 168: Grand Scene

In the dead of night, Qin Ming involuntarily drifted into the pitch-black mist. He felt uneasy and puzzled, wondering why this was happening.

He traversed the dense fog, where things became indistinct at a distance.

Qin Ming noticed that he retained a "human form" and was not dim. At the last moment of departure, he clutched that piece of broken cloth and brought it along.

The piece of cloth was about the size of two palms together, approximately a square shape, about one palm long.

At this moment, Qin Ming’s was a consciousness body, so size did not matter. He could drape the dim cloth over himself, meaning when he appeared, he was only slightly taller than a hand.

This was a wondrous experience, with heightened perception. Still, Qin Ming’s expression was extremely grave, not one bit amused.

In the dead of night, such inexplicable occurrences would have already frightened off most people.

The fog was dense, here incredibly deep, silent, even lifeless, unsure of the destination.

Soon, Qin Ming stepped on the ground, finding it to be black earth, reminiscent of the legendary Netherworld.

"Clang clang!"

He actually heard the crisp sound of chains clashing, then saw shackles silently flying toward him.

Qin Ming felt a tinge of surprise in his heart. At last, there was some movement. What was this situation, trying directly to imprison him?

He quickly dodged, and at the same time, saw two colossal figures looming in the depths of the mist.

They were each as tall as small mountains, now opening their terrifying eyes, treading towards him with heavy steps.

Soon after, Qin Ming saw a massive Cow Demon, its horns rough, covered in black hair, its hooves made the ground tremble, eyes golden, enveloped by thick nether mist.

Beside it was a Horse Demon, its hooves as big as millstones, entirely snow-white, eyes silver, as it swished its tail, dispersing large areas of night fog.

"You dare resist upon meeting the upper servants?" The Cow Demon’s voice boomed like thunder, reverberating in the night mist, the mountain-like body arriving up close.

Thick chains entwined its horns, connected to shackles, as its mouth exhaled rolling black mist, akin to a flood surge. It had just tried to imprison Qin Ming.

"Where do these Demons come from?" Qin Ming was rather unperturbed, having slain many an old monster in the wilderness.

However, he suddenly remembered he had no body, only a consciousness. How could he battle?

"Hmm?!" Suddenly, he realized he was not a pure consciousness body—his Heavenly Light Power followed along!

In an instant, he understood something.

Li Qingyue had shared with him that Secret Technique, which he practiced daily. The Consciousness Spiritual Light it generated was mostly absorbed by his flesh, leaving only a little sediment.

Also, the thin booklet given by Meng Xinghai’s grandmaster, he had been diligently practicing, the Divine Wisdom produced was similarly absorbed by flesh, leaving only a little behind.

And Heavenly Light Force was generated in the flesh. Looking at it this way, it was entangled with Consciousness Spiritual Light and Divine Wisdom, entering this black mist together.

Qin Ming clenched his fists lightly, golden light burst forth, dispelling a vast amount of black mist!

Then, in this form, he operated the Silk Scripture technique, instantly covering his body with Golden Radiance, somewhat like the figures of Lu Zizai and Six Imperial Ancestor standing in the mist.

However, his body was very small, far from comparable to those towering giants.

"What are you about?" The gigantic Cow Demon seemed taken aback.

The chains on its head trembled once more, and the shackles connected to it emitted Five Colored Radiance, descending directly towards Qin Ming.

In this situation, how could Qin Ming possibly sit and wait for death?

Qin Ming swung his arm, feigning to punch, mainly to stir the broken cloth draped on him.

He had already tested this cloth in his bodily state, it was remarkably Divine, unsure if it was usable in this environment.

As he urged it slightly, the cloth emanated a faint light, instantly shattering the Five Colored Shackles.

The Horse Demon stepped forward with its millstone-sized hoof, but was touched by the cloth, causing it to scream in agony, one silver hoof emitting white smoke as if burnt, retreating in fright.

"Heart Lamp shines through, Pure Yang Light, this..." the Cow Demon was shocked.

"The shackles did not bind you, indicating you have no guilt." The Horse Demon spoke.

Qin Ming coldly stared at them, saying, "Don’t tell me you two are Oxhead and Horseface, and this is the Netherworld."

The Cow Demon said, "Though there are some differences, it’s more or less the same. We have some misunderstanding with you."

"Pure Yang Light can pass in and out of the Netherworld, we captured the wrong person this time, we offer apologies. You are a great figure, you should head toward the Heavenly Que, in that direction," the Horse Demon spoke, pointing the way.

Qin Ming swung a fist, feeling that they were not so strong. This time he did not use the mysterious cloth woven of Exotic Gold, directly releasing the Heavenly Light Force, actually... igniting both of them!

"Ah, this is not Pure Yang Fire, but why does it resemble?"

"You..."

The two mountain-sized demons quickly disintegrated, turning to ashes.

"What is this place?" Qin Ming carefully surveyed, after incinerating the nearby mist, seeing a high platform in the distance, he walked towards it.

Though made of Five Colored Radiance refined stones, it wasn’t dazzling. It was simple and unadorned, as if tempered by endless years, exuding a sense of true return.

There were only three words on the high platform, which Qin Ming couldn’t recognize, some extremely ancient characters, inscribed with Resonance from the old era.

But after resonating with his mind, he understood their meaning: Ascension Platform.

Qin Ming felt, truly encountering the unexpected, this Black Fog World really had everything, even such names were casually used?

He initially wanted to retreat, but now the force pulling him had disappeared.
