Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 1697: Chapter 1029: The Flooded Ancient City

Amid the storm, Liang Yuan’s figure appeared above a long, narrow island.

This region was shrouded by a strong Domain Magnetic Field.

Liang Yuan stood in the air, looking down at the island.

This was the body of the Eight-headed Great Serpent.

This old fox clearly sensed the presence of this doppelgänger, yet it still masqueraded as an island, without any movement.

Liang Yuan’s true body remained underwater, monitoring the Eight-headed Great Serpent.

This doppelgänger came from Ryukyu Island without hiding its trail.

He intended to test whether the Eight-headed Great Serpent would attack those who intruded into its Domain Magnetic Field.

The result was obvious; the Eight-headed Great Serpent simply pretended not to see a thing.

Liang Yuan even speculated that it might be hoping for him to enter its body, find the Blood River Sword, and add some variables to its current situation.

For the Eight-headed Great Serpent, if someone could destroy the chains of the Blood River Sword, it would be beneficial.

At this moment, Liang Yuan stood high in the sky, looking at the Eight-headed Great Serpent, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

“Xiangliu, you wish to escape the sanctions of the Blood River Sword, but I’m afraid it won’t be that easy for you.”

He closed his eyes and began to wait.

Meanwhile, in the Netherworld.

Liang Yuan’s No. 1 doppelgänger looked at the few people in front of him.

Qin Guang and Xue Ming were in front of him, while behind them were three uniquely looking Superpower Users.

An old woman, the current leader of the Meng Po clan, called Meng Jiu Gu.

Another, appearing entirely skeletal, the leader of the Skeleton clan, called Ascendant Fuguo.

The last was an old ghostly man with a green and ferocious face, flushed with bloodshot eyes, looking quite terrifying; he was the current leader of the ghost clan, called Gui San Xiao.

“Master, these three people are currently the most influential in the entire Netherworld,” Qin Guang said with a smile.

Xue Ming sternly said to the three, “Are you not going to salute the Master?”

The three quickly knelt and kowtowed, exclaiming, “We greet the Master.”

Xue Ming laughed, “Master, these few are our descendants. We have interrogated the three of them in detail. According to them, the most likely place for the Blood River Sword’s legacy to appear is the Blood River Cavern.”

“That was the residence of the Mansion Lord of the Netherworlds through generations.”

“But hundreds of years ago, various clans in the Netherworld fought for the legacy, causing the collapse of the Blood River Cavern.”

“In the end, no one found the legacy of the Blood River Sword.”

Liang Yuan heard this and furrowed his brows slightly, asking, “How then can you be sure that the Blood River Sword’s legacy is inside that cavern?”

Qin Guang immediately replied, “Master, the three of them said that You Mingzi, the last owner of the Blood River Sword, left all the legacy in the cavern in pursuit of ascension himself at the altar to find us.”

“As far as we know, You Mingzi did indeed use the altar’s teleportation portal to enter the Starry Sky Ancient City with his body.”

“However, by then, the Starry Sky Ancient City already had no Spiritual Energy; he may not have truly broken through to the Star God Level and died shortly after entering the city.”

“In fact, none of us ever saw him.”

“Otherwise, among us, someone would surely be familiar with him.”

Liang Yuan asked, “Now that the Blood River Cavern has collapsed, can you still find its specific location?”

Both Qin Guang and Xue Ming remained silent; they dared not guarantee.

At once, they turned their gaze to the kneeling Meng Jiu Gu and the others.

Meng Jiu Gu quickly said, “Yes, Master, the three of us have been there several times to try to excavate the Blood River Sword again, especially in these two years of Spiritual Energy Revival. Many people from other families have sneaked in; we have basically confirmed the location of the Blood River Cavern.”

Liang Yuan nodded slightly at this and said, “Alright, since the location is confirmed, let’s go and take a look together.”

“Xue Ming, Qin Guang, gather some people and head over together.”

“Yes, Master.”

Now, with Liang Yuan’s followers, in the Netherworld, they could truly be described as a major force.

Since he planned to find this collapsed cavern, everyone in the Netherworld must participate.

Very soon, under the leadership of Meng Jiu Gu, Gui San Xiao, and Ascendant Fuguo, a group of people grandly headed to the depths of the Blood River in the Netherworld.

“Is the cavern at the bottom of the river?”

Liang Yuan asked.

Meng Jiu Gu quickly replied, “Yes, sir, these years, with continuous heavy rains, the Blood River has kept rising, and we don’t even know where the water is coming from. Strangely, despite no rain, many places have been engulfed.”

“The Blood River Cavern was originally not in a low area but is now fully submerged. For decades, there was still a protective array, but after the Spiritual Energy dried up, even the array couldn’t be maintained, and it was long ago submerged.”

Liang Yuan nodded slightly, proceeding with them further.

Soon, everyone arrived at a place that looked like an ancient city.

In the town submerged by the blood waters, many of the houses had already collapsed, and numerous mutant creatures were roaming within.

As Liang Yuan and others arrived, these mutant creatures scattered, stirring up many bubbles.

Liang Yuan asked, “Was this originally a town?”

“Yes, this was originally the core city of our Netherworld, where many affairs were handled.”

“The Blood River Cavern is at the Mansion Lord’s abode; this area not only had the Blood River Cavern but also many treasured lands, all now submerged.”

Meng Jiu Gu explained.

Beside him, Xue Ming, Qin Guang, Ma Ning, and other old-timers, witnessing such scenes, all appeared filled with nostalgia and sentiment.

They had stayed in the Starry Sky Ancient City for so long; little did they expect that upon returning, their former residence had turned into this.

It’s important to note that many of them grew up in this ancient city.

So seeing this scene naturally gave them a feeling of things changing while people stayed the same.

Under these people’s guidance, the group swam towards the center of the ancient city.

Near the very center was a vast square.

On the square was a grand hall, imposing, and even soaked in the Blood River for years, its grandeur was still clear.

Everyone arrived within the hall, surroundings in a shambles, collapsed tables and chairs, crumbled statues, and scattered bones.

All these showed evidence of intense battles having occurred here.

Ascendant Fuguo said, “Master, over here; ahead is the entrance of the collapsed Blood River Cavern.”

He led the way, while Meng Jiu Gu and Gui San Xiao introduced as they walked.

“This was once the office of the Blood River Cavern, where each clan presented reports on various matters daily.”

“Back then, everyone had to check in here every day.”

Meng Jiu Gu said with a bitter smile, “Speaking of which, this all happened hundreds of years ago.”

“After the Spiritual Energy dried up, the Blood River’s dike broke, submerging this place.”

“I haven’t been here in nearly a century,” Gui San Xiao said.

The group arrived at a collapsed rubble wall, as Qin Guang and others drove away the nearby mutant beasts.

Xue Ming said, “Master, please wait a moment as we clear the rubble.”

Liang Yuan nodded slightly.

Xue Ming proceeded to lead others in clearing the rubble.

Before the apocalypse, with everyone having lost their Superpowers, penetrating such a deep Blood River, let alone clearing rubble, was difficult.

The Meng Po clan could transform into Spirit Body ghost form, allowing them to enter.

However, relying on manpower to remove this rubble and clear a path was challenging.

After all, maintaining ghost form also consumes Superpower Energy.

Before the apocalypse, they were very reluctant to use their Superpowers.

Therefore, this place remained a heap of ruins, unexplored by anyone.
