2301 Maze The Martial Dao Prime Body was surrounded by the golden Sanskrit of the Prajna Nirvana Sutra. He brought Heavenly Wolf and Yan Beichen and charged out of the encirclement of the Hell Hounds rapidly. Most of the Hell Hounds did not dare to continue chasing. However, there were still more than ten Hell Hounds that hung far behind the Martial Dao Prime Body. They were restless and the blood glint in their eyes intensified! “There’s no need for us to run so quickly with the protection of this ancient sutra of the Infinite Great Emperor, right?” Heavenly Wolf panted. “The ghosts and living beings in Avici fear the Infinite Great Emperor of the past, not this ancient sutra.” The Martial Dao Prime Body was extremely calm and said in a deep voice, “The reason why they’re retreating now is because this ancient sutra contains the Dharmic Dao of the Infinite Great Emperor.” “As long as they realize that I’m not the Infinite Great Emperor at all and am far from his terrifying methods, these living beings of Hell will still charge forward!” Heavenly Wolf turned back and looked at the Hell Hounds behind them, secretly speechless. He also realized that the Martial Dao Prime Body was not wrong. The Prajna Nirvana Sutra could only intimidate the living beings of Hell temporarily, but it could not subdue them! Not only that, when the living beings of Hell realized that the Martial Dao Prime Body was no threat at all, it would trigger the hatred in their hearts even more! Back then, these living beings of Hell were renowned top-tier experts of the upper world and there were many Kings and Emperors among them. However, they were suppressed by the Infinite Great Emperor in Avici and endured endless pain without the chance to reincarnate! In this dark and sinister Hell, the malevolent ghosts of these experts no longer had their former glory. In fact, they had evolved into ugly and menacing Hell Hounds—their hatred was imaginable. There was a high chance that the hatred would be vented on the Martial Dao Prime Body! Heavenly Wolf asked again, “When will things end if we just escape like this? Furthermore, how do you know that we can find my old master’s corpse in this direction?” The Martial Dao Prime Body said, “After entering this place, I circulated the Fiend Obsession Sutra and activated the Mara Mask. In this direction, I sensed an aura of the same origin.” The time of Emperor Bo Xun’s death was comparatively recent. In other words, even though he was already dead, there might still be some Dharmic Dao aura left in his corpse! Furthermore, the Mara Mask was created by a clone of Emperor Bo Xun to begin with and naturally had a natural connection to the latter! “That’s right, that’s a good idea.” Heavenly Wolf understood that logic and was invigorated. At the very least, he saw a sliver of hope! If they could find the corpse of Emperor Bo Xun as soon as possible and obtain the Fiend Obsession Buddha Karmic Sutra, they could then start looking for a way out. The longer they lingered in Avici, the slimmer their chances of escaping! The dozens of Hell Hounds behind them were still closing in continuously! Suddenly! From the side, a three-headed Hell Hound with a terrifying aura charged out and roared in the direction of the Martial Dao Prime Body! The three-headed Hell Hound was fearless against the golden Sanskrit around the Martial Dao Prime Body and charged over with a ferocious gaze. The few Hell Hounds in front of him could not dodge in time and were knocked over. One of the Hell Hounds was even snapped by his bite and fresh blood splattered everywhere! The three-headed Hell Hound did not even turn back. His six bloodshot eyes were fixed on the Martial Dao Prime Body with a murderous aura! Sensing the energy fluctuation of the three-headed Hell Hound, the Martial Dao Prime Body guessed that he might not even be able to withstand a single move from him! The black fog ahead intensified! With the help of the golden Sanskrit light of the Prajna Nirvana Sutra, the Martial Dao Prime Body could vaguely see that there seemed to be a tall and steep black stone wall ahead. It was filled with strange rocks and blood! The rocks on the black stone wall were exactly the same as the ones on Tie Wei Mountain—they seemed to have reached the end of Avici! The Martial Dao Prime Body arrived before the black stone wall and sped along its edge. The three-headed Hell Hound was getting closer. Right then, a gigantic cave appeared on the black stone wall ahead, sucking in thick black fog! They no longer had a way out. The Martial Dao Prime Body hesitated for a moment and charged in with Heavenly Wolf. After entering the cave, the Martial Dao Prime Body slowed down and turned back. Through the black fog, he could vaguely see the three-headed Hell Hound standing in front of the pitch-black cave. However, he seemed wary and did not follow them in. Momentarily free from danger, the Martial Dao Prime Body and Heavenly Wolf both heaved a sigh of relief. The cave was a long tunnel. As the Martial Dao Prime Body and Heavenly Wolf ventured deeper, the surrounding black fog gradually faded. Before long, a soft feeling came from beneath the feet of the Martial Dao Prime Body, as though he had stepped on mud. He lowered his head and saw that the ground was covered with a thick layer of grayish-white dust that led to the end of the tunnel. The Martial Dao Prime Body lowered his head and grabbed a handful of the grayish-white dust, pinching it gently. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂 “It’s ashes!” The Martial Dao Prime Body frowned slightly. Countless living beings had died in that tunnel and there were no corpses left now, only ashes—even the identities of those living beings could not be deduced. Right then, something tiny moved in the ashes in the palm of the Martial Dao Prime Body. Immediately after, the expression of the Martial Dao Prime Body changed slightly and he suddenly threw away the ashes in his hands! From the ashes, an ant the size of a rice grain crawled out and dived back into the ashes rapidly, disappearing. The ant earlier on bit the Martial Dao Prime Body. What was terrifying was that the Martial Dao Prime Body felt a trace of pain! ... His current body was strong and condensed, indestructible. Connate heaven-grade Dharmic treasures or even some sentient Dharmic treasures of Perfected Immortals might not be able to hurt him. However, that tiny ant actually hurt him! “Ant!” Heavenly Wolf noticed this as well and exclaimed, his tone changing from fright! “Back then, my old master was drowned by a swarm of ants and gnawed to death!” When he recalled the scene back then, Heavenly Wolf’s voice revealed deep fear. “Seems like this is the right path.” The Martial Dao Prime Body took a deep breath and continued forward with Heavenly Wolf. Since he saw the ant, it meant that he was getting closer to the corpse of Emperor Bo Xun! The terrain of the cave was extremely complicated and it was like a palace with countless intersecting tunnels. ... Some of the tunnels were connected. Some of the tunnels might lead to a dead end. Without a map, one might not be able to find a way out even if they walked for hundreds or thousands of years. This was completely different from the place earlier on—it was more like a gigantic maze! Thankfully, the Martial Dao Prime Body channeled the Fiend Obsession Sutra continuously and advanced in a certain direction with his connection to Emperor Bo Xun’s Dharmic Dao. Although there were occasional detours, they were in the right direction and the connection between the Dharmic Dao was getting stronger as well!
