Bei Yan told the location of a mountain cave that his master had informed him about to the members of the Sacred Flower Sect, and suggested once again, "If you don't believe me, you can go take a look. All right, we'll separate for now. Everyone, take care."
They had been together for the past few days, eating and living together, forming some bonds. He truly couldn't bear to see these people gather together, only to encounter the Demonic Lord Qing Shi and ultimately be completely slain.
After Bei Yan finished speaking, he left the cave with the members of the Hundred Peaks Sect. The three groups chose three different directions to leave.
The Sacred Flower Sect members watched the backs of the departing Hundred Peaks Sect members, looking at each other in confusion. After a long time, a disciple turned to Immortal Zi Hua and asked, "Senior Sister, what should we do? At first, I didn't believe Bei Yan, but he swore that the mountain cave..."
"Let's go take a look."
Immortal Zi Hua pondered for a moment and led the group to the location Bei Yan had mentioned. His description was quite detailed, so they found the cave with little effort.
Upon entering the cave, they immediately saw four corpses lying on the ground.
Instantly, everyone's complexion changed drastically.
"These are people from the Firmament Sect."
"It's the Firmament Sect, Immortal Yong Xin, Immortal Yong Cheng, Immortal Yong Ren, and Immortal Yong Yi! All four are beings at the peak of the Immortal Path Domain."
Suddenly, a voice came.
"Look at this place, these marks... these are clearly left by a spell passing through."
Upon hearing this, everyone ran over one after another.
"This..."
"These are marks from a spell!"
"These marks are evidently recent, likely within a day or two."
"So Bei Yan wasn't lying! Someone really can manifest Demonic Qi!"
"How can this be? How can someone manifest Demonic Qi?"
"Chaos Qi!" Immortal Zi Hua suddenly thought of something and murmured, "There's Chaos Qi here, and Chaos Qi is the origin of all energies. The River of All Realms has become like this, likely because of Chaos Qi.
Therefore, if someone can manifest Immortal Qi or Demonic Qi, the only explanation is that they possess Chaos Qi.
Moreover, the rumor of Chaos Qi here initially made people feel strange.
Now, I have another bad suspicion. Perhaps the one manifesting Demonic Qi, as Bei Yan said, who is slaughtering experts everywhere, is the person spreading the word about Chaos Qi here.
Their purpose may very well be to slaughter the experts entering this place."
"What!"
"Then won't we be beheaded by him sooner or later?"
"Yes, if that's true, we shouldn't scatter; we should have everyone see these caves and unite our strength to face him."
"That's unrealistic." Immortal Zi Hua shook her head and sighed, "Firstly, gathering everyone might cause conflicts among us. Even if everyone could unite against an external threat, we are facing someone who can wield spells. They fly in the Void, constantly attacking us with spells. How can we defend?
Moreover, with so many people together, don't we need to go out for food? Wouldn't that attract the attention of the Alien Race?
So the only strategy is to scatter. Then, wait for this place to return to normal.
The River of All Realms is vast; it can't remain in this state forever. Once everyone can use Immortal Qi and Demonic Qi, we'll be safe again."
Immortal Zi Hua pointed forward and said, "Four people have died here, so Bei Yan initially advised no group should exceed four people. We'll allocate accordingly.
We truly misunderstood them. I hope we all have the chance to leave here. When that time comes, I'll personally visit the Hundred Peaks Sect to express my gratitude."
Immortal Zi Hua sighed lightly and quickly arranged everyone's groups before leaving the area.
After notifying Bei Yan and the others, Cao Zhen informed Ling Xi and her three friends about the situation outside and advised them to hide temporarily. Thinking it over, he felt it necessary to inform Xiang Ziyu as well.
Although that kid has always been alone, who knows if he's with anyone now.
Just as he connected to Xiang Ziyu through China Cloud, he suddenly froze. Xiang Ziyu was indeed alone at the moment, but surprisingly, there was a White Tiger following him!
