As the pressure from afar suppressed Wang Yan, Yu Wei and the others also immediately became alert.
However, Wang Yan's expression changed drastically because he could already sense that the arriving Asura from a distance was incredibly terrifying.
With Wang Yan's current cultivation of Three Elements Morning Qi, merely this pressure was enough to fully suppress him, indicating that this person's cultivation was far superior to Wang Yan's.
If it were Four Elements Morning Qi, Wang Yan wouldn't be so passive. Therefore, that Asura must be at the strongest level of Five Elements Morning Qi.
This place must not be lingered in. Thinking of this, Wang Yan quickly retreated backward, breaking free from Yu Wei's encirclement, his body swaying as he prepared to rush to the City Lord of Illusion and take him away.
Wang Yan knew that the City Lord of Illusion must not remain here, and since he was attacked in confusion, he needed to get clear answers from the City Lord; otherwise, he would continue to be falsely accused by him.
Seeing Wang Yan attempting to grab him, the City Lord of Illusion, who had just awakened from Wang Yan's Dragon's Roar Shaking Nine Heavens, couldn't help but scream: "Help! Senior, save me—"
Upon hearing the City Lord's cry for help, the Asura flying from afar immediately snorted coldly, saying: "Courting death."
The phrase "courting death" was like a thunderclap, coming from afar, pressing directly toward Wang Yan.
Wang Yan had already rushed to the front of the City Lord of Illusion, his hand ready to grab him, but was shaken by this roar, involuntarily stepping back half a step.
In that half step retreat, Wang Yan immediately lost the opportunity to seize the City Lord of Illusion.
At this moment, Wang Yan also saw the appearance of the Asura from afar; a sullen-faced, cold-eyed middle-aged man.
As this Asura looked towards Wang Yan, his eyes were already filled with killing intent.
Wang Yan understood that if he didn't leave now, by the time this Asura reached him, he would no longer have the chance to escape.
Thinking of this, Wang Yan's body swayed as he continuously performed "Shadow Shifting," immediately fleeing into the distance.
After the Asura flew closer, he did not pursue Wang Yan, allowing him to escape into the distance.
The City Lord of Illusion, having narrowly escaped death, knew that the Asura coming from afar was undoubtedly a significant figure, so he hurriedly knelt before this Asura, his face filled with flattery, saying: "Thank you, senior, for saving my life."
Yu Wei and the others also bowed to this Asura in homage, saying: "Greetings, Lord Shadowless."
As it turns out, this Asura who had just flown in was named Shadowless, and indeed possessed the cultivation of Five Elements Morning Qi.
Shadowless asked the Asuras before him: "Why has a mortal appeared in the Hell Abyss? Why are you fighting with him?"
The Asuras before Shadowless looked at one another, all pointing at Yu Wei, simultaneously saying: "He was the one who first fought with this mortal."
Seeing Shadowless and the other Asuras all looking at him, Yu Wei scratched his head and said: "Right, why did I fight with him? Oh yes, his cultivation is quite high, I wanted a good fight."
Shadowless coldly reprimanded: "Nonsense."
Seeing Shadowless was angry, Yu Wei blinked, suddenly clapped his forehead and said: "I remember, he just asked where Meng Po is."
The always cold-faced Shadowless, upon hearing this, immediately looked grim, and said coldly: "A mere human actually knows of Meng Po, hmm, someone, immediately send out my orders, all Asuras of the Hell Abyss, encircle and eliminate this person."
"Yes!" Yu Wei and the other Asuras immediately nodded in agreement.
At this time, Yu Wei turned to look at the City Lord of Illusion, asking: "Who are you then?"
The City Lord of Illusion was adept at reading faces, immediately deducing Shadowless's authority within the Hell Abyss, promptly said to Shadowless: "Replying to the lord, I was locked here for opposing King Yama, and as for that mortal, rumors have it he's related to King Yama, perhaps even his human slave…"
Now that Wang Yan was no longer here to attest, the City Lord of Illusion started spouting lies and fabrications.
Upon hearing that Wang Yan was King Yama's human slave, the killing intent in Shadowless's eyes intensified.
Moreover, what the City Lord of Illusion said could reasonably explain why a human managed to enter the Hell Abyss.
It's important to note that the Hell Abyss is extremely sealed, completely unaware of the fact that the Demon Cultivator army had invaded the Nether Realm, so naturally, whatever the City Lord of Illusion said was taken as truth.
After hearing the City Lord of Illusion's words, Shadowless's expression softened, saying: "Since you are an enemy of King Yama, then you are our friend. I see your cultivation has reached the Primordial Morning Qi, but you have been stuck at this level for a long time, why is that?"
Realizing Shadowless had seen through his cultivation and history at a glance, the City Lord of Illusion was startled and earnestly replied: "Reporting to the lord, because I am an enemy of King Yama, I have had no access to Marvels of Heaven and Earth, hence I've remained at the level of Primordial Morning Qi."
Shadowless nodded and said: "I see, but since you have come here, I can help you enhance your cultivation. Within the Hell Abyss, there is a place called Five Elements Mountain, composed entirely of Marvels of Heaven and Earth. I will have someone take you there, you can absorb the Marvels of Heaven and Earth according to your cultivation, but do not overindulge, lest the rapid increase in cultivation destabilizes your balance."
Hearing that there was such a treasure in the Hell Abyss, the City Lord of Illusion was stunned.
Originally, he had merely deceived Wang Yan, never expecting it to be true.
Being able to freely use Marvels of Heaven and Earth, if he were to acquire four elements, wouldn't he immediately break through to Five Elements Morning Qi?
The City Lord of Illusion didn't hear a single word of Shadowless's cautionary advice, wholly fixated on how to achieve Five Elements Morning Qi.
The City Lord of Illusion was led by an Asura towards the Five Elements Mountain, while Shadowless immediately flew forward, pursuing in the direction Wang Yan had fled.
By this time, Shadowless's orders had already spread throughout the entire Hell Abyss, and countless Asuras, including Yu Wei, had joined the army to hunt down Wang Yan.
At this point, Wang Yan had already fled a dozen miles away. Seeing no one pursuing from behind, he immediately stopped.
Wang Yan first released the Yin Qi contained within the Black Cherry, shielding his entire body, making himself appear no different from an ordinary cultivator, then stopped to think deeply.
Even now, Wang Yan could not figure out what to do next.
If Meng Po truly was imprisoned by so many powerful Asuras, how could he possibly rescue her alone?
No wonder Meng Po asked him to find Jiang Yikang, realizing that only this senior Jiang Yikang could defeat the powerful Asuras within the Hell Abyss.
Just as Wang Yan was pondering, he saw an Asura flying straight towards him from afar.
"Wang Yan—" This Asura, upon seeing Wang Yan, immediately called out his name.
