His voice trembled as he whispered, stealing a glance at her. Seeing her expression remained impassive, he quickly added, "Ghost Doctor, I’ve never entered this secret chamber. I don’t know what lies within. But if the sovereign has returned, his hiding place must be here. So... so, you see, could I... could I possibly..."

He dared not follow further. What if he failed to find the monarch inside? What if the Ghost Doctor flew into a rage and killed him? Or worse, even if the monarch was indeed there, if he followed in, he likely wouldn’t survive.

Whoosh!

"Arghh!"

A sharp, icy gleam sliced through the air, followed by a piercing scream. Blood spattered as the cultivator collapsed to his knees, one arm severed and lying on the ground, the wound gushing crimson blood.

"Get out."

Feng Jiu didn’t even glance at him, her voice cold and indifferent.

"Yes, yes. Thank you, Ghost Doctor, for sparing my life," he said gratefully. He kowtowed to her once before clutching his severed arm and hurrying out.

Compared to the others who had been killed outright, losing only an arm was a tremendous mercy. He felt as if he’d been granted a second chance at life. Daring not linger, he fled the palace swiftly.

Feng Jiu stepped into the secret chamber and descended the stone steps. Inside, she sensed not only the icy chill in the air but also an intensely potent aura of spiritual energy.

As she descended, the space before her grew ever larger. This was no ordinary underground chamber—it was an entire subterranean palace.

Fist-sized night pearls and glass lamps dotted the walls, illuminating the space brilliantly. Yet a faint mist hung within, seemingly condensed from the cold.

As she advanced, a ferocious beast suddenly lunged toward her. Its momentum was fierce, its force immense, stirring the air into a howling wind.

Her eyes narrowed as spirit energy surged around her. In an instant, her crimson figure darted forward, not evading but charging straight into the fray. Her blade struck with lightning speed, slashing viciously at the fierce beast.

Whoosh!

Roar!

A fierce sword qi, carrying the weight of ancient might, spread out. Instantly, a piercing beastly howl echoed through the mist, followed by a thunderous crash—as if the fierce beast’s corpse had collapsed.

The mist dispersed under the surge of spirit energy, clearing the view. Feng Jiu looked down at the ground ahead, where a divine beast-level fierce beast lay split in two by a single sword strike. Head and body lay severed, blood gushing forth and staining the earth crimson.

She withdrew her gaze indifferently and continued walking forward. As she advanced deeper, she faintly sensed the aura of the Black Lotus. After moving about ten meters further, she encountered a barrier radiating the essence of the Black Lotus.

"Break!"

With a clear shout, she thrust her hand forward. A powerful force surged forth, instantly shattering the barrier.

"Boom!"

A muffled explosion echoed—not loud, yet accompanied by a visible wave of air that rippled outward, spreading through the surroundings. The black lotus energy within this air permeated the area, yet dared not approach Feng Jiu.

Feng Jiu swept her sleeve aside, dispersing the currents. She stepped forward, unlocking a stone door within. As it swung open, a world of ice and snow unfolded before her eyes...
