"Hmph, you old hag, what do you know?" the Nine-Headed Lion roared with all nine mouths simultaneously.
"You…" Kong Xuan's eyes held a cold glint.
Just then, the commander conjured a bronze mirror. A moment later, scenes from various corners of Hell Star were projected.
Of course, the only place not projected was the legendary Nineteenth Level of Hell Star.
There was a special mysterious domain there, making it impossible for any Magical Artifact or method to peek inside.
"Good, you can open your eyes wide and see how the long-haired bald donkey gets abused by my master," the Nine-Headed Lion yelled.
"Perhaps what we'll see then is the Jun Family Divine Child looking disheveled," Kong Xuan retorted coldly.
At this moment, a white-robed elder's figure suddenly appeared in the Void Realm.
When he saw the elder, the commander's eyelids twitched, and he hurriedly cupped his hands, "Greetings, Guardian Sir!"
This elder was precisely the Guardian of Hulao Pass, Supreme Chongming.
"What, even Guardian Sir has come?"
Many Prodigies below who had not entered Hell Star were extremely surprised.
"Hehe, I'm just a bit curious and interested," Supreme Chongming said.
"It seems Guardian Sir must be here for the Jun Family Divine Child," the commander thought to himself.
If not for Jun Xiaoyao's actions, Supreme Chongming would likely not have had the interest to come to Hell Star to observe the battle.
Although Prodigies like Jade Buddha Son were strong, they couldn't pique Supreme Chongming's interest.
"Not only did he enter the Bronze Immortal Palace, but he also came out alive and even gained control of the Bronze Immortal Palace."
"Jun Family Divine Child, this time, will you once again create an impossible miracle?" Supreme Chongming was curious.
…
Hell Star, upon a certain barren and desolate land.
An ancient teleportation array released a burst of light.
Immediately, Jun Xiaoyao's figure flashed out from within.
"Is this Hell Star?"
Jun Xiaoyao looked around. The earth was dark red, as if stained by accumulated blood.
Mountains filled with a wild and desolate aura, like the pale white skeletons of primeval Vicious Beasts, were desolate and bleak.
Everywhere on the ground were white bones, not only of Human Race Cultivators but also of various beings and foreign races.
"It truly is an inauspicious place," Jun Xiaoyao murmured.
However, he possessed the Ancient Sacred Body, which naturally countered all evil. This kind of trial ground was quite suitable for him.
Jun Xiaoyao walked forward, and not long after, he encountered a group of Human Demonic Beasts unique to Hell Star.
Before entering Hell Star, the commander had briefly explained.
In Hell Star, due to the convergence of grievances, terrifying demonic creatures such as Human Demonic Beasts and Demonic Beasts formed.
Generally speaking, Sky Demonic Beasts, Earth Demonic Beasts, and Human Demonic Beasts were the main demonic creatures.
Human Demonic Beasts wandered on the surface of Hell Star.
Earth Demonic Beasts lived underground.
As for Sky Demonic Beasts, they were a mass of demonic read, without substance, but this kind was often even more bizarre and terrifying.
The group of Human Demonic Beasts before him were covered in black scales, with ferocious faces, and their cultivation ranged from Dao God Realm to Quasi-Saint Rank.
Such existences, Jun Xiaoyao could kill with a flick of his finger.
From his fingertips, Sword Qi from the Immortal Slaughtering Swordplay burst forth, sweeping away the Human Demonic Beasts in front of him.
"Immortal Marrow is generally located underground, and in rare Immortal Marrow mineral veins, one might even encounter existences like Sky Demonic Beast Emperors and Earth Demonic Beast Emperors," Jun Xiaoyao murmured.
Sky Demonic Beast Emperors and Earth Demonic Beast Emperors were boss-like existences among Sky Demonic Beasts and Earth Demonic Beasts. According to the commander, they almost all possessed the combat power of the Supreme Saint Grand Perfection Rank.
If one was unlucky, it was even possible to encounter Saint King Rank.
But for Jun Xiaoyao, there was no fear at all. His only goal was to obtain Immortal Marrow and condense Immortal Qi.
Next, Jun Xiaoyao began to search for an entrance to the underground.
On the other sides, Jade Buddha Son, Void Sword Son, Sea God Third Prince, and others were also sweeping through.
The Human Demonic Beasts on the surface could not hinder them in the slightest.
They also decided to first find a way to condense their second Immortal Qi before dealing with Jun Xiaoyao.
Although these surface Human Demonic Beasts posed no hindrance to these Prodigy Giants.
If other Prodigies encountered them, they would have to struggle for a while, and it was even possible they would perish.
Soon, those Prodigies who entered Hell Star began to suffer casualties.
Some Prodigies were directly surrounded by a group of Human Demonic Beasts, torn into pieces, and devoured.
Meanwhile, at the training ground, the cruel scenes displayed on the light curtain formed by the bronze mirror made the faces of the other Prodigies who had not entered Hell Star turn pale, and they felt lingering fear.
It seemed that sometimes, being a bit cowardly wasn't a bad thing.
"Look, the Jun Family Divine Child has found the entrance!" a Prodigy suddenly exclaimed.
Everyone's gaze converged.
On Hell Star, Jun Xiaoyao stopped.
In front of him, a bottomless abyss-like hole appeared, so deep that it seemed to lead directly to Hell.
Chillingly cold Qi emanated from it, along with a strong scent of blood rising, making people hesitate to approach.
"Is this the entrance? Below should be the Hell Star 1st Layer," Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.
Hell Star has eighteen layers from the surface to the depths.
As for the legendary Nineteenth Level of Hell Star, it should be pretty much the core of Hell Star.
Perhaps the secret of Hell Star's formation was hidden there.
"One of the seven wonders, the Hell Star 19th Layer. If I have the chance, should I go in and take a look?" Jun Xiaoyao pondered.
At this moment, the System's voice came from his mind.
"Ding, congratulations to the host, a new check-in location has been refreshed. Please check in at the Hell Star 19th Layer!"
Upon hearing this, Jun Xiaoyao felt a bit embarrassed and said, "System, do you really want me to court death?"
These check-in locations were either the Burial World, the Bronze Immortal Palace, or the Nineteenth Level of Hell.
They were all hellish places.
Was the System trying to make him court death even more?
"The System is dedicated to serving the host, has absolutely no ill intentions, and absolutely no thought of putting the host to death," the System replied in a mechanical voice.
"Alright, I believe you," Jun Xiaoyao said.
He didn't even believe his own words.
Of course, this was just an interlude. Jun Xiaoyao was indeed somewhat interested in the legendary Nineteenth Level of Hell Star.
Next, Jun Xiaoyao descended into the 1st Layer.
Upon descending into the 1st Layer, a faint shackle seemed to appear on Jun Xiaoyao's body.
As this shackle appeared, Jun Xiaoyao felt that his Physical Body strength was suppressed by one-tenth.
Because he had known this beforehand, Jun Xiaoyao was not flustered at all.
With his Physical Body strength, let alone being weakened by only one-tenth, even if it was weakened to only one percent of his strength, it would still far exceed Prodigies of the same Rank.
Jun Xiaoyao continued to advance.
As he delved deeper, he also encountered Earth Demonic Beasts.
These Earth Demonic Beasts appeared more ferocious than Human Demonic Beasts, like wild beasts.
Of course, their strength was also greater, with the weakest cultivation being Dao God Realm Great Perfection.
However, with Jun Xiaoyao's cultivation, he naturally swept through them easily.
Along the way, he was also searching for Immortal Marrow.
At the same time, in another part of the underground.
A black-robed cloaked figure casually killed a group of Earth Demonic Beasts.
On his body, two faint Immortal Qi appeared, the second Immortal Qi being slightly illusory.
This was enough to shock everyone.
Such cultivation was enough to be called a Giant.
But he was unknown to anyone!
