Chapter 925 A Black Tiger
??After they flew for some time, Ling Yun and the two women arrived at a place, but they did not see anything there other than the barren land spreading out in front of them, so Tian Yueling asked him directly. "What did you detect in this area? Why isn't there anything in this place?"
"Snif… snif…" Lang Zhi tried to sniff every direction of the area, but she suddenly covered her nose, and her gaze suddenly stopped in one direction. "Mo Chen, I smelled something unusual in that area, and the smell is so strong."
Ling Yun turned to Lang Zhi in surprise, but he remembered that he had the golden desert wolf bloodline, so it was natural that his sense of smell was very keen. "You're right, I did detect something from that direction, but it wasn't on land, and it was deep underground."
"Deep underground?" Both women turned to Ling Yun in surprise.
"Yes." Ling Yun then quickly walked in that direction, and the two women hurriedly followed behind him. However, he suddenly stopped them after they had walked a few steps, and he stretched out his hand as he detected something blocking their way.
"Huh?" Both women gasped as soon as they saw a transparent barrier flash in front of them.
Despite the place's long abandonment, Ling Yun was surprised to see this and felt strange about it when he discovered a strong, transparent barrier.
"How come there is such a barrier in this place?" Tian Yueling asked as she touched the transparent barrier. "This barrier is strong, and I'm not sure if we can break it."
"You're right." Ling Yun nodded in agreement with Tian Yueling before turning to Lang Zhi. "Can you smell anything behind this barrier?"
"Blood." Ling Yun and Tian Yueling frowned at that, and Lang Zhi explained it to them directly. "I can smell blood coming out of this barrier, and I'm sure the amount of blood behind it is very large."
"What do you think happened in this place?"
However, Ling Yun responded by shaking his head, especially since his heavenly eyes couldn't penetrate it, and he also couldn't detect everything behind the transparent barrier. "Could it be that the humans who used to live in this realm had advanced technology? I'm sure that the demi-humans couldn't have created such an advanced barrier, especially since they were enslaved by them for so long, and this place has also been abandoned for too long. They might seize and use this barrier to protect something after they expelled the humans from this realm, but I can't confirm what's inside."
"You're probably right about that, especially since there's an advanced realm in this universe, and the humans who used to live in this realm probably have ties to them."
Ling Yun was not surprised by that, especially since he had heard about it from Zhou Yu, but that realm was hard to find because it was always moving across the universe.
Lang Zhi suddenly remembered something. "Mo Chen, I remember that our ancestor, the dark abyss tiger, was ferocious. I heard that he often used the blood of his enemies to strengthen his body, so I think whatever is behind this barrier is probably his legacy."
"But how does their blood still exist here?" Tian Yuelin asked as she turned to Lang Zhi. "Your ancestor has left this realm for so long, so the blood should have dried up long ago."
"I did not know about that."
"Perhaps that person used something to preserve their blood, so it didn't dry up until now." Ling Yun then transformed himself into his half-dragon form, which made Lang Zhi jump away from him because she felt pressured by his aura, and he also used the dragon strengthening technique. "Step back, Yueling."
Tian Yueling nodded and retreated immediately, and Ling Yun's blood-red eyes flashed before he punched the transparent barrier with full force.
*Boom*
Unfortunately, Ling Yun was disappointed because his attack had no effect on the transparent barrier, as it neutralized the power of his attack.
"Holy fudge! I've used my full force, but it hasn't cracked at all." Ling Yun wanted to use his complete dragon form, but he abandoned his intention because it would only lure those demi-humans to them. He then returned to his human form again before contacting Zhou Yun, and he was confident that she would be able to bring them in.
Soon, Zhou Yu appeared by their side and touched the transparent barrier. "Yueling is correct; they created this barrier, which can absorb any attack, preventing you from destroying it unless you use your full dragon form."
"Can you take us inside?"
"It's just a trivial matter for me." Zhou Yu then created a void door that connected to the opposite side of the transparent barrier. "Let's go in; I'm also curious about what's inside."

Unlike the outside, the inside of the transparent barrier looked fertile, with lots of plants growing inside, which surprised them.
"How can the two areas be so opposite even though they are in the same area?" Tian Yueling asked as she looked around the area.
"The key is the barrier." Zhou Yu said this while pointing at the sky. "Since I don't understand such things, I don't know how those people created this barrier, but it is what makes everything in this place sustainable. Let's move forward, but there's a powerful beast waiting for us there, and it seems to have been placed there on purpose to guard the entrance to the underground. Luckily, that beast won't be able to do anything in front of Mo Chen, so we don't need to waste our Qi fighting with it."
"So I didn't smell wrong, huh? There really is a lot of blood in this place."
"You're right, little wolf." Zhou Yu said this as she nodded to Lang Zhi. "There is a pool filled with so much blood underground, and I think it was your ancestor, the abyss dark tiger, who created it. Fortunately, the pool is within this barrier, so the blood collected by him is still well preserved, and it will be very useful for Mo Chen."
"What do you mean by that, Big Sis Yu? How can those bloods be useful for him?"
"Hehe." Zhou Yu chuckled at Tian Yueling's question. "Did you forget that he has his devil soul? Just like the dark abyss tiger, his devil soul can use the blood in the pool to strengthen itself. However, the side effects might be serious if his devil soul becomes stronger, and it's possible it will dominate his other nine souls."
"Huh? Did Mo Chen really have ten souls, Senior?" Lang Zhi asked with a look of shock, especially since it was too absurd, and he had also never heard of a cultivator having more than two souls before.
"Mo Chen truly has ten souls, so it won't be easy to kill him." Zhou Yu immediately turned to Lang Zhi and teased her. "Since you already know his secret, he definitely won't let you go now, and he will pounce on you sooner or later, so you better prepare yourself."
Lang Zhi's face reddened after hearing that, but she did not deny that Ling Yun was indeed extraordinary, especially after she witnessed him turning into a gigantic black dragon when he broke through last time, and no beast or demi-human could compare to a mighty dragon like him.
Ling Yun smiled at Lang Zhi's red face, and he himself had been attracted to her since he first saw her, but he had not previously had time to meet her. However, she was now by his side, and they would still be together for quite a while, so he still had plenty of time to woo her.
Before long, they had arrived near the entrance to the underground, and they saw a huge black tiger sleeping right above the entrance. However, it opened its eyes after it sensed their presence, and it immediately stood on its four legs before roaring at them. "Roar!"
"Hey, black kitten! Your roar is too weak!" Ling Yun said this to the black tiger while shaking his head. "Let me show you the real roar."
Ling Yun took a deep breath before opening his mouth wide, and he immediately used the chaos dragon roar at full power.
*Roarrrr*
Ling Yun's roar instantly pushed the giant black tiger back, and its body trembled violently as it realized that his roar was not an ordinary roar but the roar of a true dragon.
Lang Zhi smiled bitterly as she looked at the giant black tiger with a pitiful gaze, and she then spoke to it. "I know that you are the protector of this place, but you shouldn't fight him because he is a true dragon, and he can kill you very easily."
The giant black tiger nodded to Lang Zhi and lay down on the ground, but its eyes continued to tremble as it meekly looked at Ling Yun, and its expression showed that it was afraid that he would kill it.
Upon observing that, Ling Yun leaped onto the black tiger's head, took a seat, and stroked its head while speaking to it. "You don't need to be afraid of me; I won't hurt you as long as you don't become my enemy. Anyway, how long have you been guarding this place?"
