As soon as Wang Baole said that, the dark sect cultivators around him all had strange expressions on their faces. The few quasi-dark children from before had their eyes wide open. They looked at Wang Baole as if they didn’t know what was going on.

The truth was… the current Wang Baole was far too different from the impression he had given everyone previously. Previously, Wang Baole had been cold and arrogant. He had been silent. He had been exuding a sense of incompatibility.

But now… as soon as he said those words, the awkwardness that surrounded him became… hard to describe.

It was like a sudden change in the style of a painting that caught people off guard. There was even a sense of dissonance. It was like a painting that looked serious and old-fashioned. In the next instant, an indescribable object appeared..

That wasn’t all. What made the dark sect cultivators even more focused was the arrival of the power of the Heavenly Dao. It was gone… They could clearly feel that the power of the Heavenly Dao had indeed descended, but in the next instant.., it was as if it had been absorbed, disappearing without a trace.

This scene, when they thought about it, was the key point that made everyone’s hearts heavy.

Wang Baole was embarrassed as well. He was extremely embarrassed.

He had been immersed in that emotion previously and had forgotten about the intrinsic scabbard in his body. He had been spying on the power of the Heavenly Dao. Now, he had accidentally swallowed a portion of his senior brother’s power of the Heavenly Dao, causing him to stand there.., he had no way of expanding the depth of the Dark River handprint. Even though he had been feeling emotional previously, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak to his senior brother.

Chen Qingzi, Wang Baole’s senior brother, was silent. He looked at Wang Baole emotionlessly, but deep down, a sense of helplessness flashed through his eyes. After a long while, under the heavy gazes of the crowd, he pointed at Wang Baole again, he raised his right hand and pointed at Wang Baole once again.

Wang baole immediately unleashed his cultivation and tried his best to suppress the intrinsic scabbard in his body. He growled and threatened in his heart.

“Stop sucking. I’m Warning You!”

Perhaps Wang Baole’s warning was effective, or perhaps the suppression of his cultivation had produced an effect. This time, as the power of the Heavenly Dao descended, the intrinsic scabbard in Wang Baole’s body seemed to be trying its best to suppress it and didn’t absorb it, the power of the Heavenly Dao instantly filled Wang Baole’s entire body. It was as if it had added fuel to the dark fire, causing his dark fire to explode in the next instant.

It was so intense that the dark fire surged out of his body and expanded outwards. In the blink of an eye, it was a thousand feet tall. In the blink of an eye, it was a thousand feet tall and then a hundred thousand feet tall!

As the dark fire erupted, the expressions of all the dark sect cultivators in the area changed. They all retreated. No matter how much they had resisted Wang Baole in the past, when they saw the hundred thousand feet tall dark fire, their minds were filled with shock.

Even the few quasi-dark children reacted in the same way. The woman who had hidden her true power also narrowed her eyes. Even the eldest senior brother of the quasi-dark children, who was wearing a mask.., a strong light shone in their eyes.

As everyone’s minds were shaken, the flames around Wang Baole surged into the sky. He was within the raging dark fire, as if a dark immortal had descended. His mighty pressure spread in all directions, and his aura shook the heavens and earth, the Dark River below was being pulled. The Hand Seal was at the center, and it rolled backwards.

The dead souls that had appeared in the Dark River also reappeared as the water churned. They roared soundlessly towards Wang Baole, but the terror on their faces.., it revealed the terror in their hearts.

It was as if an unseen pressure had been released on Wang Baole. One person wanted to suppress the entire river!

It sounded exaggerated and impossible. However, at that moment, everyone felt as if… This was happening!

“That’s impossible!”

“Even if he’s a dark child, how could the dark fire be strengthened to such an extent!”

“His cultivation level is obvious. He shouldn’t be able to do that. Could it be… that this person possesses the great destiny of the dark sect, the Great Karma!”

As the dark sect members lost their voices and were in an uproar, Wang Baole sensed something different. The power of the Heavenly Dao was like fuel, but it was also like a boost. It allowed his dark fire to be released almost indefinitely, he sensed… a faint summoning coming from within the Dark River below!

The summoning had an effect on his soul and his dark fire. It seemed to form a connection and resonance. This… was the true reason why his dark fire had erupted to such an extent.

There was no time for further thought. Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Wang Baole lowered his head to look at the Dark River that was emitting the connection and summoning. A strange glow appeared in his eyes. He raised his right hand and pressed down on the Dark River that was about 30,000 feet above him, the hand seal that was more than 800,000 feet deep pressed down.

As he pressed down, the void rumbled and the nine Netherworlds rippled. A giant hand seal materialized before him. Countless dark flames surged into him from all directions. They surged out of Wang Baole’s body and gathered towards the hand seal, it took a long time to describe all of this. However, in reality, it was like a flash of lightning. In the next instant… The Hand Seal that appeared before Wang Baole and everyone’s eyes reached a range of nearly 30,000 feet, it was filled with a dark fire that seemed to be able to burn all the souls of the living…

“Fall!”Wang Baole roared. The dark fire hand seal let out a deafening roar and charged towards the Dark River. It overlapped with the hand seal on the dark river and pressed downwards with a loud boom!

The depth of more than eight hundred thousand feet was reached in the blink of an eye. The moment it touched the bottom, a muffled boom spread towards the Dark River. Countless souls scattered in all directions, and the depth of the Heavenly Dao Hand Seal was extended!

In the blink of an eye, it reached nine hundred thousand feet. In the next moment, it reached nine hundred and fifty thousand feet. In the blink of an eye… it reached one million feet!

Such an aura seemed to have only erupted during the initial stage. No one knew how much it could reach. However, as it broke through the one million feet mark, the power from Wang Baole’s hand seal seemed to be too powerful. It had nowhere to vent its power, and it spread out in all directions, immediately, the 10,000-meter handprint began to fluctuate violently. It spread outwards from the 10,000-meter mark, reaching 30,000 meters.

It wasn’t over yet. It continued to spread outwards until it reached 40,000 meters, 50,000 meters, 60,000 meters… it finally reached the 70,000-meter mark. Then, it slowly dissipated under the loud boom that filled the sky!

This scene had caused all the people from the dark sect, including the dark children, the eldest senior brother who wore a mask, and the experts from the older generation to be filled with shock. They looked at Wang Baole as if they had seen a ghost, it was as if they had seen a ghost!

“This… this…”

“Is there a mistake?”

“How is this possible?”

It was true that the lengthening of the vertical plane was different from the lengthening of the horizontal plane. The latter was even more difficult. Every ten feet of lengthening was equivalent to a million feet of lengthening the vertical plane!

Even though the actual calculation couldn’t be done in such a way, one could still see how terrifying Wang Baole was. It could even be said that the luck and karma on him could sweep away all the dark children, and there was still a large amount left.

Even Chen Qingzi had a profound look in his eyes. He looked deeply at Wang Baole. At the same time, as the power of Wang Baole’s dark fire hand seal was released and the Dark River gradually calmed down, everyone present.., they immediately saw… deep within the 700,000-foot-long hand seal-sized tunnel, at the end of it..

That might not be the true bottom of the Dark River, but there was a gigantic mountain that couldn’t be seen. What everyone saw was the peak of the mountain. There..

There was a statue of a middle-aged man. He sat there, seemingly exhausted. He looked down, and although there weren’t many expressions on his face, an intense aura of death emanated off of him, it was as if he were the source of the River Styx!

Beneath his feet was a temple, an ordinary-looking temple.

The only thing extraordinary about this temple was that it was completely… Pitch-black!

“The legendary… Imperial residence of the Underworld Emperor!”Murmured one of the older underworld sect cultivators, his voice trembling with excitement.
