Water Dragon Island.

Master Xuan Shui, who was dealing with a Demon Dao invasion, took a Communication Talisman out of his Storage Bag without even looking up, then infused it with Spiritual Qi.

This kind of thing, he had to handle dozens of times every day.

After all, over the past century, he had handed out countless Communication Talismans.

Even if each person sends a message once, he would be receiving countless messages daily.

And it was the same now.

As he infused the Communication Talisman with Spiritual Qi, a weak voice immediately echoed in his mind.

"Sect Leader, I, Feng Yichen... have returned."

"Returned is returned, why are you sending me a message, not even knowing the rules!"

Already somewhat irritated, Master Xuan Shui felt even more troubled after receiving such a baffling message and instinctively wanted to crush the Communication Talisman.

But just as he raised his right hand, he suddenly remembered something.

"Feng Yichen... why does this name sound familiar?"

Master Xuan Shui frowned in thought for a moment, then suddenly raised his head.

"It's him!"

Back then, the foremost person at the Qi Cultivation Stage of the Water Dragon Sect, who led a team to Ghost Flood Dragon Lake in Nine Nether Cave Heaven. Before setting out, Master Xuan Shui had even planned that once he returned successfully, he would accept him as a disciple.

But it turned out that such a person unexpectedly died inside Nine Nether Cave Heaven.

The person who came out alive with that item turned into the previously unknown Han Feiyu, who is now his disciple.

Over the years, although Han Feiyu had succeeded in Foundation Establishment with a Pseudo Spirit Root,

his cultivation speed was not slow. His strength reached Mid-stage Foundation Establishment, and he was extremely formidable, even achieving quite commendable rankings in competitions with the other five Immortal Sects.

He certainly didn't bring shame to Master Xuan Shui.

So, Master Xuan Shui's attitude towards Han Feiyu changed from initially giving him merely a nominal status to treating him as a true personal disciple.

But now... Feng Yichen has actually returned.

What exactly did he experience inside Ghost Flood Dragon Lake?

Not only did he not die in Nine Nether Cave Heaven, but he also managed to come out of it.

The Nine Nether Cave Heaven opens once every eighty years, and before the time, not to mention a Qi Refining Cultivator, even a Nascent Soul Cultivator couldn't break its entrance.

So how did he come out?

For a moment, many questions arose in Master Xuan Shui's mind.

With so many questions, naturally, he needed to inquire further, so he sent his Divine Sense into the Communication Talisman and asked, "Where are you now?"

The response came quickly.

"Disciple has just returned from Black Water Lake, currently in the west of our Water Dragon Sect."

"Stand there and don't move, I'm coming over now."

Immediately, a Golden Core Escape Light rose from Water Dragon Island and then headed straight west.

Feng Yichen put away the Communication Talisman in his hand, then sat down on the spot to restore his Spiritual Qi. Within just the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, a streak of light descended from the sky, landing in front of him.

"Feng Yichen, it's really you!"

After sensing the aura of the person in front of him, Master Xuan Shui finally believed it completely.

Feng Yichen not only didn't die but also returned from Nine Nether Cave Heaven.

"Disciple Feng Yichen, pay respects to Sect Leader."

Feng Yichen, behind him, bowed deeply to Master Xuan Shui and then rose, his face full of bitterness.

"Tell me, what exactly did you experience inside Nine Nether Cave Heaven, how did Han Feiyu say you died and now you've returned?" Master Xuan Shui asked.

Feng Yichen took a deep breath and said directly:

"The one who tried to kill me was no other than Han Feiyu."

"What? Han Feiyu tried to kill you?"

Master Xuan Shui was slightly surprised, but not very much, for such things as harming fellow disciples inside Nine Nether Cave Heaven... were not uncommon, quite the contrary, they were rather frequent.

It's just that this happening to his disciple was what surprised him.

"Exactly."

"You'd better explain in detail what exactly happened." Master Xuan Shui waved his hand, and several Restrictions appeared in this place, isolating it from any external probing.

"Yes."

Then Feng Yichen recounted his experiences inside Nine Nether Cave Heaven in detail.

Starting from getting nothing at Ghost Flood Dragon Lake, then to seeking out Han Feiyu, the pair teamed up to pull off a raid on the Spirit Control Sect, and later he was seriously injured, only to be ambushed by Han Feiyu, who took his external Spirit Root.

Afterward, thinking he was about to die, Feng Yichen said he jumped into Ghost Flood Dragon Lake, unexpectedly coming across an Earth Treasure, which after consumption restored some of his Spirit Root, and then he cultivated inside for a few years, accidentally discovering a way out of Nine Nether Cave Heaven, allowing him to barely escape.

Master Xuan Shui's first reaction after listening was, "That passage you mentioned, can it still be entered?!"

Feng Yichen wasn't surprised by Master Xuan Shui's focus on whether the passage could be entered rather than his own life, and he honestly replied:

"Disciple didn't dare take the risk to try, after coming out, I hurried back to the sect."

"And do you remember the location of that passage?"

"I remember, it's at the bottom of Black Water Lake."

"Good!"

Master Xuan Shui responded softly, then asked, "Are you saying that not only did Han Feiyu refuse to help when you were in danger, but he also took advantage of your misfortune to seize your Spirit Root?"

"Precisely."

"Very well, if what you say is true, the sect will certainly seek justice for you!"

Master Xuan Shui had the resolve to make an example of Han Feiyu if this matter turned out to be true, to correct the ethos of the Water Dragon Sect!
