"Yes, you can go to your death in peace now!"
With a flash, Tie Yi turned into a residual silhouette, rapidly charging towards the fallen Netherworld Dark Clan member.
With a loud boom, the head of the Netherworld Dark Clan member on the ground was struck, spilling black fluid all over the place.
After confirming there were no enemies nearby, Tie Yi returned to Duan Gujin's side.
Lie Lei took an hour to recuperate, and only then did his complexion start to look rosy, as he suppressed the injuries he had sustained.
"Sect Master Lie, do you know exactly how many people were transported into this place?"
Duan Gujin asked.
Lie Lei sighed, pulling out a palm-sized Token from his storage ring.
"Before this, our Green Cloud Sect issued an identity token to each person, and in fact, each of these identity tokens has a special mark. If the owner of an identity token dies, then this Token will display which owner of the identity token has died! Try infusing your Divine Sense into this Token and take a look!"
Lie Lei said.
Upon hearing this, everyone else was horrified in their hearts; they had never imagined that the Green Cloud Sect had already tampered with the identity tokens in their hands.
Duan Gujin then touched his nose, thinking to himself, these old-timers in worldly society really are not simple at all! If Sect Master Lie hadn't mentioned it, he and the others would have never known that the Green Cloud Sect had secretly manipulated their identity tokens.
"Alright!"
Duan Gujin took the Token and infused his Divine Sense into it.
After a while, he asked Lie Lei some details.
After inquiring all he needed, he told Lie Lei, "We still have three missing Martial Artists now!"
Hearing this, Lie Lei sighed and said, "If we really have no way to find those three missing Martial Artists, then we'll just have to give up on them!"
"Right! We need to leave this place immediately!"
Reluctantly, they decided to leave together.
Led by Tie Yi, they quickly arrived at the border between the territories of the Netherworld Dark Clan and the Xingyu Clan.
However, just as they were about to leave, they suddenly found that they could not pass through the void in front of them, discovering that a wall had appeared in the void.
That wall was incredibly solid, blocking their path and preventing them from passing through.
"My God! What's happening here?"
Duan Gujin extended his Divine Sense outward, examining the situation.
After a while, he took in a sharp breath of cold air, only then realizing that what had appeared in front of him was an extremely sturdy Space Crystal Wall!
"Tie Yi, take me around the vicinity for a bit!"
Duan Gujin's heart began to beat fiercely, flashing with an ominous premonition.
In order to confirm his suspicions, he had Tie Yi guide him around the nearby area.
Half an hour later, he returned with Tie Yi.
His brows were furrowed, and his expression was extremely grave.
"Whoever is able to use a Space Crystal Wall here and has sealed off this entire place is definitely no ordinary individual. Who could be behind this, using such an extensive Space Crystal Wall like this? And what could their purpose be?
Realizing that he and Tie Yi probably wouldn't be able to pass through the Space Crystal Wall ahead, Duan Gujin decided to enter the territory of the Netherworld Dark Clan to investigate. He wanted to find out who exactly was behind this immensely powerful Space Crystal Wall.
"Sect Master Lie, you all stay hidden here for a while longer! We can't get through because there's a Space Crystal Wall in front of us, rest assured, this Space Crystal Wall won't last for too long! Once the Space Crystal Wall disappears, we'll be able to enter the territory of the Xingyu Clan!"
Duan Gujin had Lie Lei and the others hide in a relatively safe location nearby, and after seeing that they were settled, he and Tie Yi sneaked into the territory of the Netherworld Dark Clan.
Upon entering the Netherworld Dark Clan's territory, they saw countless members of the Netherworld Dark Clan running around in chaos.
They had no interest in eradicating those rampant Netherworld Dark Clan members; they just wanted to find out the truth.
A day later, Duan Gujin sensed an extremely powerful presence in the void ahead.
Since that presence was that of Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul, he surmised that it should be a Human Warrior, specifically one with the Cultivation of the Third Level of Martial Emperor.
"Let's get closer!"
Duan Gujin approached the Human Warrior together with Tie Yi in the shadows, and his heart skipped a beat when he saw the warrior.
"It's him! Plague God Shi Potian!"
The figure appearing before Duan Gujin now was a young man, short and skinny. His face was pointed, looking very much like a monkey.
The appearance of this young man instantly reminded him of someone: "It's Plague God Shi Potian!"
He had had some dealings with Shi Potian in the past and knew that he was an unreliable character.
Shi Potian had a well-known nickname: Plague God.
Speaking of Plague God Shi Potian, he was quite a famous figure.
Duan Gujin's heart thumped wildly; a thought flashed through his mind, wondering if Shi Potian would remember past events.
He quickly flew over with Tie Yi, and as they approached, he raised his hands to show that they had no ill intentions.
Sensing the approach of two auras, Shi Potian stopped and prepared for combat.
After a while, he saw Duan Gujin and Tie Yi.
"Fellow warrior of the Human Clan ahead, don't be tense! I am the same as you, a member of the Human Clan! This friend by my side, although not of the Human Clan, means you no harm! Warrior ahead, if I'm not mistaken, you are Shi Potian, correct?"
Shi Potian sneered and said, "Who exactly are you? Why do you know my name?"
Duan Gujin's eyes flickered as he said, "Shi Potian, at this time, you should have left the Mystic Alliance, right?"
"Do you really know me?"
Shi Potian instantly became highly vigilant.
"Of course I know you. Do you remember the incident at the Heavenly Realm Reincarnation River a thousand years later?"
Duan Gujin stated indifferently.
Hearing Duan Gujin's words, Shi Potian gasped in shock.
"Who are you?"
He remained at the ready, but it was becoming clear to him that this young man might very well be the ally who had fought against the Ultimate Demon Emperor at the Heavenly Realm Reincarnation River.
"We've had some dealings together, you might have forgotten my name, but I know you are Plague God Shi Potian!"
"Knowing that I am Plague God Shi Potian, aren't you afraid of me?"
Shi Potian asked doubtfully.
"I've heard of you, and I know that you wouldn't touch my ancestral grave unless I provoked you first!"
Duan Gujin said confidently.
"Right! I only take action against those who harbor ill will towards me! Are we enemies or friends?" said Shi Potian.
"Friends. I have no affiliation with the Mystic Alliance; I'm just a nobody," Duan Gujin responded lightly.
"What's your name?"
Shi Potian asked.
"I am Duan Gujin!" Duan Gujin replied.
"I've never heard that name before; it seems you really are a nobody,"
Shi Potian mused for a moment and said.
"Yes, I am just a nobody!"
Duan Gujin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, knowing the implication in Shi Potian's words.
In his past life, he really wasn't particularly remarkable.
Furthermore, he wasn't qualified to enter the Heavenly Realm Reincarnation River and confront the Ultimate Demon Emperor at that time; he was dragged into it unintentionally.
"Your companion here is quite remarkable!"
Shi Potian's Divine Sense locked onto Tie Yi as he spoke to Duan Gujin.
"Yes, she is my companion! She is not of the Human Clan, she is from the Xingyu Clan!"
Duan Gujin's eyes flickered, and he hurriedly inquired about Shi Potian's purpose for coming here.
