Xu Wendong, originally from the mortal world, discovered that the Yang energies attacking him actually enhanced his cultivation, allowing him to break through to the Eighth Level of Soul Transformation Realm. He then absorbed the Divine Souls of the deceased Heavenly Nether Sect disciples, rapidly increasing his power and even generating a Soul Power Clone. Meanwhile, outside the trial, a relic opened, causing a frenzy among the Heavenly Nether Sect disciples and elders who rushed inside, while Zhao Ying'er worried about Xu Wendong's absence.

In the Trial Space.

After Xu Wendong dealt with dozens of golden figures, he keenly noticed that the surrounding space was slowly collapsing, as if it were a crumbling skyscraper.

At that moment, he was transported away by a mysterious force.

When he adjusted to the bright light before him, the sight made his heart sink.

"Is this..."

His gaze fell upon a desolate scene; ruins covered the area, seemingly washed by endless years.

Through some larger stone blocks, Xu Wendong could see relatively complete characters, narrating the past glory.

"Could this be the Relic Land?" Xu Wendong furrowed his brow.

He did not expect that after breaking the Trial Gate, he would be directly transported inside the relic.

From afar, the sound of arguments faintly reached him.

Xu Wendong scanned the distance and immediately understood what was happening.

"It seems that after I broke through the trial, the disciples of Heavenly Nether Sect have also come in. I must hurry to get the treasures here first."

With this thought, Xu Wendong immediately rushed towards the interior of the relic.

He knew that since he was here, he had to obtain something to take back, not returning empty-handed.

Inside the relic, it was barren, filled with an ancient and mysterious aura.

Xu Wendong searched everywhere but found no intact buildings.

He wandered for two hours before discovering what seemed like another layer of space at the bottom of the relic.

After laboriously moving a giant stone, he indeed found a passage leading to an underground space.

Upon descending, he suddenly discovered a familiar face.

"Liu Hao?" Xu Wendong raised his eyebrows, displaying a slightly shocked expression, and it happened that the other party also saw him.

Beside Liu Hao was a group of strong disciples.

"Junior Liu, do you know this person?" A young man in green clothing suddenly spoke with a smile, showing considerable politeness to Liu Hao, even with a somewhat obsequious tone.

Money can make the devil turn the millstone; the Liu Family’s wealth was profound, and these people were bribed by Liu Hao with Nether Crystals.

"I know him; how could I not?"

"I wish to skin him, draw his tendons, and drink his blood!"

Liu Hao said through gritted teeth, his eyes flashing with hatred.

It’s a small world; since they’re here, debts will be settled, and grudges avenged!

With the trial successfully cleared, the door to the relic swung open.

In an instant, all disciples of Heavenly Nether Sect rushed in like a breached flood, consumed by madness.

Their eyes sparkled with greed, filled with thoughts of countless treasures and opportunities that might lie within the relic.

Though Xu Wendong was already inside the relic, due to various coincidences, he fell a step behind.

When he arrived at this area, he found Liu Hao had already claimed it.

Worse, the existing deep enmity between him and Liu Hao meant that a confrontation was inevitable.

"Isn’t this Young Master Liu?" Xu Wendong’s lips curled into a meaningful smile.

He appeared calm, not putting Liu Hao before him in his eyes at all.

After all, previously in the Netherworld City, he could easily teach Liu Hao a lesson.

Now, in this relic, Xu Wendong was even less afraid.

He knew there was no Protector from the Tongyou Realm to back Liu Hao now.

"You bastard, you dare act so flamboyantly?" Liu Hao, upon seeing Xu Wendong, was steaming with rage, laughing furiously.

Back in the Netherworld City, Xu Wendong hadn’t participated in the trial, making it inconvenient to act against him.

But now, with the relic opened, Xu Wendong was merely a lamb for slaughter, with no right to boast before him.

"Junior Liu, since you hold a grudge against this person, do you need my help to teach him a lesson?"

The disciple in green clothes stepped forward, eyes shining with excitement, a greedy smile playing on his lips.

He knew Liu Hao was generous, and always rewarded richly for assistance.

Since meeting Liu Hao’s enemy, if he helped resolve it, he would surely make a fortune.

However, Liu Hao slowly shook his head.

"Brother Jiang, no need to trouble you." Liu Hao’s eyes were filled with intense killing intent, as if he wanted to swallow Xu Wendong.

He strode towards Xu Wendong, followed by a large group of Heavenly Nether Sect disciples, as if to completely overwhelm Xu Wendong.

"Oh? Sixth Level of Soul Transformation Realm? You’ve progressed?" Xu Wendong’s eyes were sharp, seeing through Liu Hao’s cultivation level instantly.

This fellow backed by the Liu Family, with his family’s substantial assets, could elevate his cultivation level simply by spending heavily.

After the heavy beating in the Netherworld City, he likely spent lavishly, buying many precious elixirs, to directly elevate his cultivation level.

This was the source of his courage to face Xu Wendong directly now.

"Heh, I was merely careless last time. Little bastard, today I will personally beat you down, then torture you little by little until you prefer death over life!"

Liu Hao was so excited that his hands slightly trembled, while speaking, he pulled out a large axe from his storage bag.

The axe had an ancient design, its shaft was glimmering with colorful lights, mysterious runes flickering with a faint glow.

The handle engraved with a peculiar rune, as Liu Hao grasped it, an immense energy instantly released from it.

Dense Yin Energy surged like a tidal wave, gathering on Liu Hao, enveloping him entirely in a layer of mysterious force.

"Ha ha ha, are you scared now? This is a third-grade treasure I bought from Netherworld Pavilion with heavy gold! The Mountain Splitting River Breaking Axe!" Liu Hao laughed with pride, his laughter echoing in the space.

The Heavenly Nether Sect disciples around him cast envious glances, their eyes full of longing.

A third-grade treasure, such a precious item, probably cannot be bought without fifty to sixty thousand Nether Crystals.

The Liu Family is truly affluent, willing to spend extravagantly without hesitation.

"And you’ve specifically bought a treasure for me? I appreciate the thought, now hand it over." Xu Wendong laughed, a hint of cunning flashing in his eyes.

He knew a third-grade treasure was indeed a rare gem, and even the Lin Family wouldn’t easily pay such a huge price to buy it for their younger generation.

After all, once the treasure is robbed, it’s a substantial loss.

"Give it to you? You’re shameless." Liu Hao sneered, his facial muscles slightly warped with rage.

No longer speaking, he tightly gripped the axe and swung it violently at Xu Wendong.

This strike used all his strength, carrying an unstoppable momentum, as if to split Xu Wendong in two.

Whoosh whoosh—

The Yin wind howled, axe blade cutting through the air, emitting sharp shrieking.

The terrifying power made the surrounding air tremble, causing everyone present to be alarmed.

The nearby Heavenly Nether Sect disciples were envious of this scene.

If they could wield such a treasure, their combat power would significantly increase, gaining more opportunities in this relic.

However, Xu Wendong faced this fierce strike with assured calmness.

His gaze was steady, as if the attack was nothing but child’s play.

With wind underfoot, his form moved like lightning, resembling a descending tiger, carrying an unstoppable force, instantly closing the distance with Liu Hao.

Liu Hao, seeing Xu Wendong not dodging but advancing, was overjoyed, his axe swiftly turned, fiercely aiming for Xu Wendong’s head!

In his view, his axe would leave Xu Wendong dead without a doubt!
