284: This...is this a field?

Before the words fell, within the layers of gray-white mist, a gigantic gray-black gate hundreds of meters high appeared out of thin air. This was the Netherworld Gate.

As the gate slowly opened, waves of extremely cold Aura seeped out from the crack, as if they could freeze the Soul, causing everyone present to shiver uncontrollably.

Behind the gate, it was as if there was another world, a Netherworld that only existed in legends and fear.

As a thin crack in the gate appeared, countless shadowy figures began to stir on the edge of the outline of the gray-black giant gate.

They were either ethereal like smoke or solid like ghosts, all creatures that Baili Ziyuan had killed before, be it humans, demons, or beasts!

At this moment, they seemed to be responding to Baili Ziyuan's summons, preparing to cross the boundary and descend upon the human world.

A trace of surprise flashed in the vertical pupils of the Deep Sea Mad Python. It could feel the dangerous Aura emanating from the strange gate.

But it clearly had not expected that this seemingly young human in front of it could summon such a terrifying existence.

The waves around its body, constructed by spiritual power, rippled strangely due to this sudden cold Aura, and some places had even condensed into ice, shimmering with a chilling light.

"Even if your methods are strange, you are definitely not my opponent!"

The Deep Sea Mad Python's low voice echoed in the waves. Its body began to swell, its scales shimmering with a metallic luster, and an Aura no weaker than Baili Ziyuan's steadily rose, clearly preparing to unleash its strongest means.

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Baili Ziyuan's mouth. There was no trace of fear in his eyes, but rather anticipation for the coming battle.

"Is that so? Then let's try."

As the words fell, the Souls within the Netherworld Gate began to surge faster. They were pulled by an invisible force, transforming into streaks of gray-black light, passing through the crack, and pouncing towards the Deep Sea Mad Python.

In an instant, the entire area was enveloped by a thick death Aura. The waves became turbulent, as if even heaven and earth were trembling for this astonishing battle.

The Deep Sea Mad Python let out a deafening roar. It no longer hesitated, and a dazzling light burst from its entire body. Its huge body twisted and coiled in the air, meeting the gray shadows.

"Good timing!"

Baili Ziyuan shouted loudly and swung his death scythe to meet them. Seeing this, Xia Yu and Mo Xuan below said nothing and instead charged towards the surrounding Sea Beasts and Sakura Country people!

In the distance, the Crimson Scale Lobster, Sea Scale Leopard, Unicorn Electric Eel, and Black Turtle began to recover after giving their orders, but at this moment they were startled by the Netherworld Gate.

"What kind of method is this? Are there hidden King Realm Experts in the Sakura Country?"

"Is the head of the Edo Family faking his death?"

The four beasts' expressions were somewhat solemn. Although they had received some news before, such as the suspected demise of the Edo Family.

But it had not been confirmed. At this moment, they were seriously injured, and if the head of the Edo Family appeared, the four of them might not be his match.

However, after observing for a while, they found that he was completely different from the head of the Edo Family. Otherwise, how could he be held up by a Deep Sea Mad Python for so long?

"It shouldn't be from the Edo Family, so let's kill him!"

The Sea Scale Leopard's eyes showed greed. They could see that Baili Ziyuan's Soul was powerful, far exceeding other King Realm Experts of the same level.

Such an existence was almost like a treasure medicine to them. Once swallowed, they could gain a lot of benefits.

After speaking, the Sea Scale Leopard flew towards Baili Ziyuan, but just then a black figure blocked him.

The two figures touched and separated in an instant. The Sea Scale Leopard's expression was solemn, because he had not felt anything just now.

"Who are you?"

The figure that was pushed back dozens of meters slowly stopped. Shadow's eyes flickered as he felt the powerful force coming from his palm.

"Shadow Lord!"

Shadow said nothing else, just slowly uttered these four words, his gaze calmly looking at the four beasts in front of him.

"Never heard of you, but you dare to block me? Are you looking for death?"

The Sea Scale Leopard knew from the previous blow that the opponent's strength was weaker than his. Although he couldn't sense the opponent's Aura, he was not afraid at all.

"Four, the Great Eagle Country's envoy was harmed by the Sakura Country people and fed to Kitano Mamoru."

Shadow did not answer, but calmly stated what he knew, "It shouldn't be long before the Great Eagle Country's reinforcements arrive. Are the four of you really not planning to leave?"

As soon as these words came out, the four beasts' expressions changed drastically, and they all looked in one direction with apprehension.

"Hmph, so what? It won't take much effort to kill you anyway!"

The Sea Scale Leopard let out a disdainful snort, and its Aura suddenly erupted, surging like a storm.

Its body moved like lightning, pouncing towards its opponent again with astonishing speed.

This attack was more aggressive than before. It opened its bloodthirsty mouth, its sharp fangs gleaming with cold light, and bit down fiercely with the force of a thunderbolt.

At the same time, its four limbs were tense, and every step it took made the ground tremble slightly, as if it wanted to tear the entire space apart.

However, facing such a fierce attack, Shadow just gently shook his head.

In an instant, an extremely dense dark power surged out from his body, spreading rapidly like a black tide, covering a large area in the blink of an eye.

Immediately after, Shadow's body gradually became blurred, as if it merged with the endless darkness.

The Sea Scale Leopard's powerful attack, capable of splitting mountains and cracking stones, actually passed straight through, completely missing its target.

The Sea Scale Leopard was startled. It knew the situation was bad and retreated without hesitation.

Clearly, it was deeply afraid of this mysterious and terrifying dark area and dared not step into it even half a step.

When the Sea Scale Leopard finally rushed out of the darkness and came to the side of the Crimson Scale Lobster and the other two beasts, it finally let out a long sigh of relief.

But at this moment, there was still a lingering look of fear on its face, mixed with unconcealed shock and disbelief.

"This... Is this the Domain of a King Realm Expert?"
