Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor
Chapter 734 - 722: Trace of the White-haired Poisonous Woman

Chapter 734: Chapter 722: Trace of the White-haired Poisonous Woman

In the dim Underground World, as time slowly passed, the intense rumbling, the undulations, and the dazzling, white light gradually dissipated.

Within the huge, oval-shaped pit, the stark-naked figure that had been emitting a glowing white light slowly became visible.

At this moment, Shi Feng’s aura had undergone a great transformation, his body, both offensive and defensive, seemed as if it could destroy everything.

Defensively, it was as hard as steel!

Shi Feng’s Nine Nether Body was now in its initial form! The strength of his physical body could reach the power of a One-star Martial Emperor Peak. The sturdiness of his body could now compare to that of a One-star Emperor Level’s Blood-colored Battle Armor!

"My Nine Nether Body can become even stronger!" Shi Feng uttered to himself after feeling the strength of his own body.

Then, Shi Feng flipped his right hand, and the golden object that had just been placed into his Storage Ring, now only the size of two fists, reappeared in his hand.

Subsequently, Shi Feng’s gaze followed to the golden treasure as he said, "If I completely absorb what’s left of this, my Nine Nether Body will surely reach the force of a Two-star Martial Emperor Peak!"

As Shi Feng’s words fell, the Nine Nether Technique operated once more, beginning to absorb the strange force from the golden treasure again.

The fierce strange power entered Shi Feng’s body once more, causing chaos inside his flesh yet again.

However, now that his flesh had been refined into the Nine Nether Body, Shi Feng no longer felt the intense pain from before, but only a slight pain, which didn’t even make him frown.

To him, it could not even be called pain.

Not until the golden treasure in Shi Feng’s right hand was completely absorbed did Shi Feng clench his right fist suddenly and then explosively punched towards the air in front of him!

"Boom!" A bursting sound immediately resounded, and the earth once more violently shook. The space seemed as if it was about to be blasted open; a black crack in space appeared in the air where Shi Feng had struck, quickly closing again afterward.

"Two-star Martial Emperor Peak strength!" Shi Feng sensed the power behind the punch he had just thrown, his lips curled into a smirk, and he smiled coldly.

Shi Feng’s Martial Arts, body, and soul, cultivated together; originally, the realm of his physical body was always the lowest. Now unexpectedly, after entering this Ancient World, his body had reversed its position, becoming the strongest!

Ancient Relics, with their unexpected encounters, indeed hold true!

Afterward, Shi Feng took out a white robe from his Storage Ring, the same one placed inside during the cultivation of the Nine Nether Body, and put it back on at this moment.

Following that, Shi Feng’s figure moved, he burst out from the huge oval pit, and then shot towards the tunnel where Yue Shaochong was located.

In this space, sensed by the power of his soul, apart from the passage where Yue Shaochong was currently located, that they came through, Shi Feng could not find any other exit.

However, after encountering that Big Sword Young Man in this space, Shi Feng thought of a possibility: the Bronze Palace in this Ancient World could be one of the entrances into this world. There might be other ways to enter it in other places of the Tianheng Continent.

After all, that Bronze Palace had opened only when they entered.

Shi Feng’s figure shot to the tunnel where Yue Shaochong was. Landing next to Yue Shaochong, he looked at him and said, "Let’s go, let’s check out other places."

"Uh! Oh!" Hearing Shi Feng’s words, Yue Shaochong nodded somewhat foolishly. However, in the midst of all that time, he had gradually adapted from the initial shock and alarm.

Still, in his mind echoed the words "Nine Nether Body"! The peerless Divine Body of Emperor Nine Nether!

...

Following that, Shi Feng and Yue Shaochong continued to speed through this network of underground passages, eventually entering the two tunnels Di Sha and Luo Qingchuan had taken.

The pair quickly traversed both tunnels, and beyond encountering some oddly shaped demon beast corpses, they made no other discoveries. It seemed Luo Qingchuan and Di Sha had already left and gone to explore other parts of this ancient world.

Shi Feng had a master-servant contract with Di Sha, so if anything were to have happened, Shi Feng would surely have sensed it.

Ever since his reunion with Shi Feng, Luo Qingchuan had left a Nine Nether Soul Seal inside each of their bodies. Should Luo Qingchuan encounter trouble, Shi Feng would naturally sense it as well.

Now that both were unharmed, Shi Feng decided to let everyone continue their respective adventures in this ancient world, each seeking their own fortunes.

Subsequently, finding no other discoveries in this underground world, Shi Feng and Yue Shaochong headed back the way they came, planning to inspect other areas of the ancient world.

Moreover, Shi Feng had not forgotten his initial purpose for coming here: to seek out the White-haired Poisonous Woman spoken of by the martial artists of Beiyuan City!

...

"Ah! Dad! Dad! Wake up, please wake up! White-haired Poisonous Woman! Ah! Without killing you, I swear I’ll never rest!"

In the deserts of the ancient world, a young man cradled a corpse that had turned ashen gray and had clearly died of poisoning, wailing in anguish.

He and his father had cautiously and carefully navigated through the peril-filled ancient world, evading one danger after another.

But just before, they had spotted a white figure across the desert followed by an array of white hair. They immediately recognized her as the White-haired Poisonous Woman wanted by the City Lord of Beiyuan City!

The thought of the City Lord’s hefty bounty crossed their minds.

The young man, being only of the Five-star Martial King Realm, had hidden at a distance as his low martial arts proficiency offered little help. His father had approached alone, but unexpectedly, a single encounter with a billowing gray-white poisonous fog devoured his father’s body.

By the time he saw his father again, he was holding nothing but a poisoned, lifeless corpse.

"Ah! White-haired Poisonous Woman!" The young man wailed once more.

At that moment, a column of soldiers clad in black heavy armor flew overhead in the desert. Hearing the cries from below, the leader’s body shook violently as his face twisted into a cruel and fierce expression, and he spat out four words with venom: "White! Haired! Poison! Woman!"

She was the White-haired Poisonous Woman who had killed his own son.

The leader was none other than the City Lord of Beiyuan City, Yuan Yi!

Instantly, Yuan Yi’s figure plummeted down with a "boom," landing in the desert in front of the young man, kicking up a storm of sand and dust!

Yuan Yi reached out, grabbed the collar of the wailing young man, and yanked him to his feet, demanding, "Speak! Where did the White-haired Poisonous Woman go?"

"There! That way!" The young man, recognizing the City Lord of Beiyuan City, hastily pointed forward with trembling hands.

"Good!" Yuan Yi spat out once again, throwing the young man down on the desert surface. He then moved swiftly, charging in the direction the young man had indicated, stirring up clouds of sand and dust in his wake.

Seeing Yuan Yi charging off, the black-armored soldiers hovering in the void rapidly followed suit.

However, the black-armored army, which had numbered over five hundred when they entered the Bronze Palace, now appeared to have only about three hundred left. It seemed they had suffered severe losses upon entering this ancient world.
