They had not encountered any danger since they entered the underground palace. They just kept reaping. Only Xiao Shi did not relax at all. Instead, he became even more vigilant. They still maintained the order of the old prisoner leading the way, with Xiang Zizhen following closely behind.

At the back was a jailer at the Life Spirit Stage. He was second only to Xiang Zizhen here. Just as they were moving forward, a gust of wind suddenly came from behind. The appearance of this wind instantly affected everyone’s nerves.

After all, under normal circ.u.mstances, it was impossible for there to be wind in the underground palace. The wind that appeared at this time was definitely unusual.

“Hmm?” The moment Xiang Zizhen felt the wind, his figure disappeared from the spot. As if he had teleported, he appeared at the back of the crowd.

Xiao Shi also smelled blood and his heart sank. The smell of blood came from behind. He turned to look. He discovered a corpse lying on the ground. Its head and body were separated, and blood spewed out from the cut. It was the jailer at the Life Spirit Stage walking at the back! His dead eyes were wide open, and his terrified expression was still frozen on his face, as if he did not understand how he had died.

Xiang Zizhen stood in front of the corpse. His expression was gloomy and he frowned. This jailer was not only beheaded. The most terrifying thing was that his Life Spirit was annihilated as well.

Typically, martial artists who had reached the Life Spirit Stage would still have a Life Spirit even if their bodies died. Back when Xiao Shi killed the foreign expert at the Life Spirit Stage, he was almost killed by the other party through his Life Spirit.

However, this jailer at the Life Spirit Stage His Life Spirit was destroyed with the death of his body. This was a little scary. Even someone as strong as Xiang Zizhen did not know how he did it.

In addition, the death of this jailer reminded Xiang Zizhen of the headless corpse they had seen on the way here. The death situation of both sides was exactly the same. They all had no heads. The incision on his neck was flat, as if he had been beheaded by a sharp weapon.

An expert at the Life Spirit Stage died inexplicably. Even his Life Spirit was not spared.

After everyone witnessed this scene, a chill rose in their hearts. Especially the other Life Spirit jailer in the team. The Life Spirits of Life Spirit experts were their strongest and the proudest. This gave them an extra life. Even if their bodies were destroyed, they would not die. However, in this unknown danger, even his Life Spirit could not survive and died with his body.

The impact on this Life Spirit jailer was extremely huge. The thing he was most proud of was actually so weak.

“I… 1 was walking in front of him just now. Apart from the wind, I didn’t sense any movement, nor did I sense any energy fluctuations.” Walking in front of the dead Life Spirit jailer was a prison guard at the spiritual sense stage. He was also shocked as his face turned pale. He spoke with a trembling voice.

“Could it be the wind just now?” Someone frowned and said. After all, apart from the wind just now, they didn’t sense anything.

Naturally, that gust of wind was the most suspicious. However, Xiang Zizhen shook his head. The wind not only acted on the dead Life Spirit jailer, but it also swept past all of them. If it was a kill formed by this wind, then this wind must have a powerful destructive power. However, they did not sense anything abnormal from the wind.

“It’s not the wind. This wind… is just a disguise.” Xiang Zizhen said in a low voice.

“If it’s not the wind, then it must be the array formation in the palace!” The other jailer frowned. He felt that the array formation here also had such a silent killing method.

“It’s not an array formation.” Xiao Shi shook his head in his heart. Currently, his main body has already completed a portion of the interpretation of the array patterns. From this, he realized that the array patterns on the wall of the stone room were only a portion of the array formation under the underground palace. It was not all of them.

However, he also understood that the array formation in the underground palace did not have the ability to kill people directly. Especially when it was an expert of the Life Spirit Stage.

Suddenly, Xiao Shi and Xiang Zizhen thought of something at the same time. They both looked up at the same time. Their gazes pa.s.sed through everyone and looked at the front of the team. With a glance, their expressions instantly darkened.

Swoosh!

Xiang Zizhen’s figure flashed. He appeared at the front of the team. Everyone followed Xiang Zizhen’s movements and looked over.

“That old prisoner… is gone!!” The jailers were shocked. This was also very wrong! Although their attention had been focused on the dead Life Spirit jailer, the weakest among them was at the Soul Awakening Stage. There was also a powerful Martial Demon like Xiang Zizhen.

As long as the old prisoner took a half-step forward, they could instantly sense it. Moreover, the old prisoner was handcuffed and shackled. His cultivation was sealed, and there were seals in his body. He was no different from an ordinary person.

Even if he took the opportunity to escape, how far could he run?

Xiang Zizhen’s face was as dark as water. He realized that he had fallen into a trap! The death of the Life Spirit jailer was clearly a trap set up to lure him away. As long as his gaze left the old prisoner, the old prisoner could escape from the palace.

“Now… what do we do?” All the jailers looked at Xiang Zizhen.

Only at this moment did they realize that this underground palace was not as safe as they had thought. On the contrary, the danger of this underground palace was enough to easily kill any of them. It would even make them not know how they died.

The most troublesome thing now was the old prisoner who had escaped! Without this prisoner leading the way, they did not know what they would face next.

Under everyone’s gazes, Xiang Zizhen said without any hesitation. “Let’s go! Get out of here now!” His expression was decisive. There was no hesitation. As he spoke, he began to lead everyone back.

This decision was very unexpected to Xiao Shi. After all, he had always thought that Xiang Zizhen had brought them here to be cannon fodder. But from the looks of the current situation, was his deduction wrong?

Just as everyone was about to leave with Xiang Zizhen, one of the jailers in the Soul Awakening Stage lowered his head and let out a low, old, and hoa.r.s.e strange laugh. “Hehehehe… Since you’re here, stay and have fun!”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone’s eyes immediately focused on the jailer. When the jailer looked up, his eyes were bloodshot, and his face was filled with ferocity and madness. Before anyone could attack, the jailer had already raised his hand and punched his head.

There was a bang. His head exploded. The eyeb.a.l.l.s that had sputtered onto the ground were still rolling around, staring at everyone with a hint of mockery. “Soon… You’ll be the same. Enjoy death! Hehehehe…”

Psst!

Xiang Zizhen stomped the eyeb.a.l.l.s and the corpse on the ground into powder. A powerful force spread out from his body and enveloped all the jailers around him. Xiao Shi could feel the power enveloping his body. While it formed a protection for him, it was also checking and scanning him. He confirmed that he had not been similarly possessed.

After the checkup, this power attached itself to them to ensure that they would not be possessed.

“Hurry up and leave!” Xiang Zizhen said in a low voice. He led everyone back the way they came.

Everyone’s expressions were solemn. They held their weapons tightly in their hands. They were ready to fight at any time. However, along the way, everything was calm. During this period, they did not encounter any enemies, nor did they encounter any danger.

After moving forward for a while, they actually returned to the starting point. It was as if they had never left.

Waves of coldness immediately spread from everyone’s hearts..
