The group had just turned a corner, and the passage ahead suddenly came to an abrupt end.

Before their eyes appeared an unfathomable chasm.

A chilly aura emerged from underground, accompanied by a sinister wind.

Roar!

At this moment, another fierce roar came up from below the chasm.

The roar shook the entire space, echoing like distant thunder.

Christina's expression grew even more solemn.

She looked at the enormous black hole, an unmistakable look of vigilance on her face.

Everyone, be careful: "The Basilisk Ghost is about to emerge, this creature is extremely troublesome."

"What on earth is a Basilisk?"

"I don't know, but seeing Christina's demeanor, it seems quite daunting."

Yang Fei, Xue Mingtai, and others had never heard of such a name before.

Everyone was somewhat astonished and couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

An Zichen said blandly: "The Classic of Mountains and Seas once recorded that the Basilisk eats elephants, its bones emerge after three years."

"Therefore, the Basilisk is an Ancient Divine Beast, rumored to swallow the sun and moon."

"If we encounter the Basilisk, even as a ghost it would be extremely troublesome."

Christina nodded.

"An Zichen is right, the Basilisk is formidable, in the Cultivation World it often devours human Primordial Spirits."

"If we encounter it, everyone must hold firm to their core, and must not waver in their intention."

"Otherwise, you will certainly be devoured by the Basilisk's Martial Will and turn into a shell."

Hearing how formidable the Basilisk was, everyone nodded repeatedly.

Bang!

At this moment, a deafening boom was heard.

Billowing black smoke emerged from the chasm, coalescing in mid-air to gradually form a colossal snake-like creature.

In the middle of the creature, two lantern-like glimmers flickered, reflecting a mysterious red light, clearly its eyes.

Christina retreated, spreading her hands to protect the group, looking somewhat tense.

"The Basilisk Ghost is out, everyone hold your ground."

Yang Fei looked at the Basilisk Ghost, finding it not as large as he imagined, let out a cold hum.

"There's no need to panic, the Basilisk is dead, this is just its Martial Will, nothing special."

"As long as everyone maintains their Martial Will, this wretch may not be able to do much to us."

Yang Fei had just spoken when Christina suddenly shouted: "Watch out!"

At that moment, the Basilisk Ghost suddenly spewed a Breath.

The Breath was blue, not thick, seemingly harmless.

Yet, seeing Christina's nervous demeanor, everyone still followed her command, swiftly retreating.

Just then, the Sword Emperor suddenly let out a miserable cry.

His right hand fingers suddenly turned blue, covered with a thin layer of ice.

His fingers became crystalline and translucent, revealing even his bones and the blood vessels beneath his skin.

It turned out, at the moment when the Basilisk Ghost spewed the Breath, the Sword Emperor accidentally got a touch of it.

Everyone was startled.

Xue Mingtai, responding quickly, took out a dagger.

A gleam flashed, and the Sword Emperor's three fingers were promptly severed by him.

Yang Fei was greatly shocked, but before he could question Xue Mingtai, a breathtaking scene unfolded before him.

The Sword Emperor's severed three fingers turned entirely into blue crystals, no longer resembling flesh.

However, the entire situation had not concluded.

The blue light spread from the Sword Emperor's severed fingers.

The wound area shimmered with a blue glow, looking frightening.

This thing, unexpectedly contagious!

Xue Mingtai responded quickly, wielding his dagger once again.

This time, he shaved off the blue crystal around the Sword Emperor's wounded area clean.

The fresh blood from the Sword Emperor's wound finally flowed out rapidly.

Xue Mingtai let out a long sigh.

"That was close, everyone be careful."

This Basilisk's Breath is potent, once contaminated, you quickly turn into blue crystals."

"The most terrifying part is that this thing is contagious.

Yang Fei rushed over, tearing a piece of fabric from his shirt to help Bandage Sword Emperor's wound.

The Sword Emperor covered his wound, staring at the Basilisk Undead in the sky, his face full of fear.

Yang Fei glanced downward and was startled.

On the ground, the Sword Emperor's three fingers seemed like blue crystals.

Yet at this moment, the three fingers transformed into scattered blue particles, then vanished in the air.

This time, everyone was troubled looking at that gigantic chasm.

With the Sword Emperor's level of Cultivation, even he couldn't resist a single Breath from the Basilisk Ghost.

This time, Sword Emperor was somewhat lucky, losing only three fingers.

If faced directly with a breath from the Basilisk Ghost, the situation would be truly dire.

Christina originally planned to jump over directly, but seeing the wounded Sword Emperor, she hesitated.

Yang Fei's eyes remained fixed on the Basilisk Ghost.

He realized, this wretch did not leap out from the chasm, holding tightly to the passageway.

Clusters of blue whirlwinds spurted out from the Basilisk's mouth.

Anyone or anything contaminated by this blue aura would likely turn to ashes.

The chasm was incredibly wide, yet for the group, this was not truly a difficulty.

What troubled them was the intensity of the Basilisk Ghost's Breath.

It guarded the passage, preventing Yang Fei and the others from advancing.

Xue Mingtai reached over, grasping the Soft Sword at his waist, to clear the path ahead.

"Since everyone has doubts, allow me to take the lead."

Yang Fei grabbed Xue Mingtai, speaking calmly.

"Brother Mingtai, this task is for me, I have a way to deal with this wretch."

Saying this, he mentally maneuvered his Essence Qi.

In his palm, Essence Qi coalesced into swirling golden flames.

These golden flames seemed to be drawn like threads of gold, forming a fire.

Everyone could distinctly sense.

These golden flames contained a massive amount of life force.

Yang Fei cherished this deeply.

Since absorbing the Jianmu life force, his Essence Qi had surged.

Even he hadn't anticipated that amidst this battle, his long-unattained Phoenix Extreme would suddenly breakthrough to the Second Layer of Divine Skills.

Xuan Fire!

As recorded in the Yan Ru Scripture, Xuan Fire is the Second Layer of the Phoenix Extreme's Divine Skills.

This flame is among the most fearsome in the world.

The flame itself, extraordinarily destructive, particularly against ghosts.

In Yang Fei's palm, Xuan Fire seemed like a small torch.

The flame appeared spindle-shaped and dimly lit.

The Basilisk Ghost, upon seeing the Xuan Fire in Yang Fei's palm, was suddenly startled.

Its body noticeably shrunk back, watching Yang Fei with its mouth rumbling like thunder.

"In legends, Nirvana Xuan Fire can rejuvenate the land and destroy any life, never expected you would master it."
