Chapter 155 The Immortal Evil

While parrying the man's attacks, Shigure was eventually enraged.

"Lightning Flash!"

Shigure used the speed and power of lightning to chop the man into minced meat, but even so, the man who was chopped into minced meat still came back to life.

"Damn it! What the hell is this thing?"

"A bountiful scourge, huh?"

The others stood aside and did not go up to help, because they knew that going up to help would not make much difference, and might even make the situation more chaotic.

Just as Shigure was about to use his finishing move again, Yanyun's voice rang out.

"Sir, we have made a new discovery."

"The meaning of 'sunfire' may not be the mythical sunfire, but could refer to temperature."

"If we could reach the temperature of the sun, we might be able to kill this monster, since no living thing could survive at such a high temperature."

"Understood."

Shigure used the man's help to somersault and landed in front of the hunters. Then she shouted loudly.

"Everyone, get your basic gear ready. I'm about to unleash my ultimate move."

As he spoke, the Remnant Flame Evolution Device was attached directly to Shigure's right arm, forming a huge cannon muzzle.

Upon hearing Shigure's words, everyone instantly completed their basic armor-wearing. Shigure then channeled all his demonic power into the cannon barrel in his right arm.

The muzzle quickly turned red-hot, and even showed signs of melting.

Shigure aimed the cannon at the man's heart, and then a thin beam of fire shot directly into the man's body.

The temperature inside the underground palace rose instantly, but Shiyu then released water elements to lower the temperature.

The man thought he could come back to life as before, but he never expected that the fire would burn him to ashes.

This time was different from before; the man who had been burned to ashes had no chance of coming back to life.

Shiyu quickly lowered the temperature in the underground palace and walked to the pile of ashes.

There was clearly a key in the ashes, and what was strange about Shigure was that even though he had used the terrifying power of the Solar Flare, the key had not been melted.

The same was true for the underground palace. Although Shiyu immediately used water to cool it down, there wasn't even a trace of melting in the underground palace, and the bricks of the underground palace didn't even get hot.

Shi Yu took out the key and disarmed himself.

The Remnant Flame Evolution Device copied all the murals and texts on the eight walls, and Yan Yun began translating and interpreting them.

"This should be the key to enter the underground palace. Here you go, boss."

Qi Wu took the key and led the group to the front of the underground palace.

"Xiaoyu, do you think you can use your glasses to scan the entire underground palace?"

Shi Yu scanned the underground palace gate more than ten times with his glasses and found that it seemed to have some kind of magic, as even the Yanyun Glasses could not scan the entire underground palace.

"No, something is blocking the glasses' scanning."

"Boss Qi Wu, what do we do?"

Mo Chuan spoke first, and Qi Wu pondered for a moment before replying.

"Send a clear message to headquarters: we'll stay in the underground palace for no more than three days."

"If we don't come out in three days, have headquarters seal off the entire underground palace. We can't let anyone else come and die here."

Just then, the Remnant Flame Evolution Device flew in front of everyone and projected a message, displaying all the deciphered information from the eight walls to the crowd.

Everyone was shocked by the information after reading it, including Qi Wu.

"Immortality..."

"To allow a long-lived dragon centipede, nurtured by the energy of the dragon vein, to parasitize within one's body and achieve immortality..."

"Is this... really possible?"

Qi Wu stroked his chin, thought for a long time, and then held up the key in his hand.

"If the information on this wall is true, then this door is Pandora's box, and the key in my hand is the key to opening it."

"I'm not forcing anyone to raise their hand in support."

"Should we go into this underground palace or not? The minority should follow the majority."

"If we don't go in, I'll destroy this key, so that the truths buried in the long river of history can remain buried."

"If you go in, be prepared to die inside."

"after all......"

"If a locked-door monster is this troublesome, then the person behind that door is the one who conducted all the experiments. I can't even imagine how troublesome he must be."

"Right now, only Shigure has the ability to destroy these evil creatures. Apart from extreme temperatures, we don't have any good ways to deal with them."

"Let's vote. Should we go in or not?"

The other eight people raised their hands, and even Dafu raised his bear paw high.

Shi Yu patted Qi Wu on the shoulder and said.

"We are the hunters, and it is our duty to end these misfortunes with our own hands."

"If we don't deal with these things now, it doesn't mean that no one will open this place in the future, and then things will get out of control."

As Shi Yu spoke, he used the Ace of Spades to swirl nine charged guns and tossed them to the crowd.

"This is the solar energy gun I developed using the solar cannon I just tested. It's powered by ghostly energy."

"This thing can fire solar rays similar to what I just used, but it's definitely not as powerful as when I unleashed them at full strength. However, it's more than enough to kill those monstrous creatures."

"Today, let the relics of the old era come to a complete end in our hands!"

Qi Wu nodded to everyone and then inserted the key into the lock.

A rumbling sound rang out as the hunters together pushed open the door that had been closed for a thousand years, unlocking a history that had been sealed away for millennia.

To guard against any poison or other hazards within the dungeon, the hunters had already donned full basic armor sets, including helmets.

Everyone had the air filtration system on their basic suits turned on, not to mention the four compressed oxygen tanks on the suits, which would normally be enough to last them for two days.

After entering, everyone slowly closed the door to prevent anything that shouldn't have escaped.

"this........"

Looking at the dilapidated underground palace before them, which still faintly revealed its former glory, everyone was so shocked by the sight that they couldn't utter a single word.

"The First Emperor actually built an underground city called Xianyang, and there was even a Xianyang Palace."

"But why isn't there an Epang Palace?"

The crowd discussed the matter, but soon they spotted the immortal creature roaming the city of Xianyang.

The robes worn by those monstrous creatures had long since been blown away by the wind, leaving only some tattered strips of cloth tied around their bodies.

As everyone stood on the high ground preparing to descend, Li Shun immediately stopped them.

"Wait, there's a problem in the city."
