Lin Dong enters the dangerous Netherworld Oasis, guided by the Bone Flute Artifact Soul in search of the Six-Transformation Immortal Grass. He learns of the treacherous Netherworld River and its deadly guardian. Despite the warnings and the river's ability to negate Inner Qi, Lin Dong attempts to retrieve the grass using a puppet, only for the puppet to be instantly destroyed.

The puppet sculpture with First Heaven strength was made from special materials, yet after falling into that Netherworld River, it still could not withstand the corrosion of the Netherworld River water.

In just the blink of an eye, that puppet sculpture with First Heaven strength turned into scrap iron, corroded beyond recognition.

Seeing this, Lin Dong still felt somewhat pained.

After all, it was a puppet sculpture with First Level of Heavenly Realm strength, and although for the current Lin Dong its use was not very great,

he could completely gift it to others, for example to Ye Linglong and the others.

Once Ye Linglong had a breakthrough to Heavenly Realm Martial Artists, he could then teach her the method of controlling puppets; she would be able to fully draw out its power and use it as one of her trump cards.

Yet now, it fell directly into the Netherworld River and turned into scrap iron.

"Even controlling a puppet can’t cross this Netherworld River. I can only try other methods." Lin Dong secretly said.

Next, he condensed Inner Qi, using Inner Qi from a distance, attempting to condense it into an invisible palm to pluck the ’Six-Transformation Immortal Grass’ growing on the opposite bank of the Netherworld River.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, gathered all the Inner Qi in his body into his palm, attempting to cross the restriction of space...

However, when the Internal Qi Transformation took shape and the palm had just appeared and extended above the Netherworld River, it instantly turned into nothingness.

The palm formed by Internal Qi Transformation was wiped out by a mysterious power.

Seeing this scene, Lin Dong muttered, "Internal Qi Transformation doesn’t work either."

The Bone Flute Artifact Soul Consciousness said, "This method of yours has been tried by others before. They all failed."

Lin Dong said, "Building a boat to cross the river also failed?"

"Yes. Someone used wood to build a boat; as soon as it was put into the water, it was corroded. Some also used certain special types of wood to build boats, but none of it worked."

"Previously, someone even used thousand-year-old thunderstruck wood to build a boat. That was thousand-year-old thunderstruck wood, incomparably tough, yet as soon as it entered the water, it was still corroded into dregs."

Hearing these words, Lin Dong gave up on the idea of building a boat to cross the river.

In fact, in his Dragon Ring Space, he also had some special wood. For example, he also had thunderstruck wood.

As well as Spring Encountering Tree and Construction Wood.

But now it seemed, none of them were useful.

As for modern boats, he estimated they would be useless as well.

Even a puppet sculpture, materials of that level, were corroded after falling in; how could modern metal materials fare any better...

"None of this works. Let’s try Mental Power." Lin Dong thought so.

He then asked the Bone Flute Artifact Soul, "Previously, have you ever seen anyone use Spiritual Power Formation to pluck that Six-Transformation Immortal Grass?"

"No! Mental Power Monks are far too rare, let alone those who can achieve Spiritual Power Formation. For Spiritual Power Formation, you at least need to be above the 35th Level."

"Such cultivators of Mental Power are even rarer... You can give it a try."

Hearing this, Lin Dong nodded.

He then unleashed his Mental Power, condensing it into a ’Spiritual Power Palm’. After that, he controlled that Spiritual Power Palm and sent it toward the opposite side of the Netherworld River.

At first, there was no problem with the Spiritual Power Palm.

Seeing this, Lin Dong thought it had worked. In surprise he said, "Looks like the palm formed by Spiritual Power Formation can pass through smoothly..."

But before he finished speaking, when it reached halfway across the Netherworld River and he continued to control that Spiritual Power Palm forward, suddenly that mysterious power descended once more.

That mysterious power mercilessly tore apart his Spiritual Power Palm, as if even power on the spiritual level could not escape the binding of the Netherworld River.

"No, it can only go halfway!" Lin Dong secretly said with regret.

In the end, Lin Dong even tried condensing his Mental Power into a transparent eye, attempting to peer into the secrets of the Netherworld River.

But when this eye touched the halfway point above the river, it quickly lost its luster and turned into a wisp of green smoke, dissipating into the air.

After this series of attempts, Lin Dong finally realized that the mysterious power above the Netherworld River was far too powerful.

It not only restricted the use of one’s Inner Qi, it also restricted the use of Mental Power.

"Even Spiritual Power Formation can’t cross the sky above this Netherworld River. This is indeed a bit tricky..." Lin Dong said to himself.

The Bone Flute Artifact Soul Consciousness said, "Then there really is no way."

"This is also why the Six-Transformation Immortal Grass has still existed all these years. If it could be easily picked, it would have long disappeared. How could it still be here?"

Lin Dong nodded, thinking of other methods.

Just at this moment, he sensed another breath approaching this area.

"An outsider..." Lin Dong’s Spiritual Power Domain was too powerful; within several hundred kilometers, as long as a Martial artist approached, he would be able to detect it.

Now, that breath had already entered within his radius of several hundred kilometers.

He naturally could sense it.

"It’s actually someone from the Extraterritorial Blood Clan, and his strength isn’t weak—he’s in the first echelon below Secondary Ancestor..." After sensing that aura, Lin Dong pondered for a moment and decided to hide first.

Then see who the other party was.

He concealed his aura and hid in the shadows, like a ghost, lurking in the dark.

The other party clearly could not sense Lin Dong’s existence.

Only Lin Dong could sense him.

This was the strength of a cultivator of Mental Power.

In perception, they were simply not on the same Level.

After about Ten Minutes, a pale, passive man arrived, wrapped in a cold Blood Qi.

Upon seeing him, the Bone Flute subconsciously trembled.

The Bone Flute Artifact Soul Consciousness couldn’t help but communicate with Lin Dong, saying, "Lin Dong, he is the person I want you to kill, Xue Hen."

"If you kill him, I will recognize you as master!"

Lin Dong hadn’t expected it to be such a coincidence.

This Xue Hen actually had also come to this ’Netherworld Oasis’, and had even arrived beside this ’Six-Transformation Immortal Grass’.

Could it be that his goal was also this Six-Transformation Immortal Grass?

Lin Dong communicated with the Bone Flute Artifact Soul Consciousness, saying, "Little Flute, don’t be anxious. Let’s first see whether he has any way to obtain that Six-Transformation Immortal Grass."

"As for his Life, the moment he appeared within my Mental Power range, I could already declare that he was a dead man."

The Bone Flute Artifact Soul Consciousness nodded, remained silent, and hid in the shadows with Lin Dong, watching that Xue Hen.

Indeed, the one who had come was Xue Hen.

He had entered this ’Netherworld Oasis’ under orders, with the goal of obtaining this ’Six-Transformation Immortal Grass’ for Fengtian.

Previously, other people of the Extraterritorial Blood Clan had also entered the ’Netherworld Oasis’, then discovered the existence of this ’Six-Transformation Immortal Grass’ and reported it to the Blood Clan Young Master.

The Blood Clan Young Master had always remembered this matter. So when Fengtian said he wanted this ’Six-Transformation Immortal Grass’, he immediately thought of that single stalk within the ’Netherworld Oasis’.

Fengtian was at Secondary Ancestor Peak, but due to restrictions, he could not enter this void space of the ’Netherworld Oasis’, so he could only let other members of the Blood Clan come in to obtain this ’Six-Transformation Immortal Grass’ for him.

The Blood Clan Young Master also informed Fengtian about the Netherworld River.

Fengtian immediately took out a piece of treasure and gave it to Xue Hen.

And he solemnly instructed him, "I’ve heard some tales of the Netherworld River. The water inside is actually the legendary ’Netherworld Weak Water’. This kind of water has a trait: within the range covered by its waters and mist, it will render any energy ineffective."

"Whether it’s Inner Qi, Mental Power, or Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, etc., all will be weakened by that ’Netherworld Weak Water’... This is also why no one has been able to cross the Netherworld River to pick that ’Six-Transformation Immortal Grass’."

"However, I have a piece of treasure that can fear no ’Netherworld Weak Water’."

After speaking, he took out that treasure.

It was a piece of Glazed Jade!
