Chapter 2569: Guilty
In the Sword Gorge, the immortal energy was dense and the pressure was overwhelming. The immortals' spiritual sense could not detect too far.
Therefore, if a powerful immortal beast suddenly attacked, the immortals would have too little time to react.
According to Fairy Feiyan, the three immortal beasts comparable to the eighth-grade immortal king realm launched a lightning-fast attack on them and then quickly evacuated the scene. The entire battle process lasted only a dozen breaths.
And in these few dozen breaths, three of the four Wuying Sect disciples died on the spot. Fairy Feiyan was relatively powerful. Although she was seriously injured, she survived by chance.
"Three eighth-grade immortal beasts..."
After hearing Fairy Feiyan's words, the Wuying Sect disciples gathered at the scene changed color, and their spiritual senses spread out, observing the slightest movement around them, fearing that the immortal beasts would appear again.
The Shadowless Sect is the most powerful sect among the ten great sects in the Western Wilds. Among the thirty young disciples of the Shadowless Sect who entered the Sword Gorge for training, the highest level was the ninth-grade Immortal King Realm, the weakest was the sixth-grade Immortal King Realm, and most of them were the seventh-grade and eighth-grade Immortal King Realm.
Fairy Feiyan, who has the eighth-grade Immortal King Realm, is the strongest in her team.
However, the eighth-grade Immortal King Realm immortal beasts are more powerful than immortals of the same level. Therefore, in the eyes of the disciples of the Shadowless Sect, the three eighth-grade Immortal King Realm immortal beasts that attacked Fairy Feiyan's team can be said to be extremely dangerous opponents. Whoever encounters them will be unlucky.
"Brother Haoyue, why aren't you with Sister Feiyan and the others?"
A disciple of the Shadowless Sect suddenly looked at the Immortal King Haoyue and asked with a frown.
Other disciples of the Shadowless Sect also looked at the Immortal King Haoyue.
Immortal King Haoyue said calmly: "Senior Sister Feiyan and the others probably wanted to get the opportunity first, so they moved forward too fast and left me far behind. I wanted to catch up with them, but I was powerless!"
So the Wuying Sect disciples at the scene looked at Fairy Feiyan again, thinking that if what Immortal King Haoyue said was true, then Fairy Feiyan and the other four immortals would abandon their fellow disciples and put him alone in danger.
Before the Wuying Sect disciples set out to Jianxia, the sect leader had repeatedly reminded the fellow disciples to unite and help each other, and not to fight among themselves. If the sect leaders knew that Fairy Feiyan treated Immortal King Haoyue like this, they would probably punish her after returning.
Fairy Feiyan knew that she was in the wrong, and under the gaze of many fellow disciples, she bowed her head and remained silent, which was considered as tacit agreement.
Some Wuying Sect disciples also looked at Immortal King Haoyue with strange expressions, thinking that he was left behind, but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise and escaped a disaster. Is this considered a dog shit luck?
The disciples of the Shadowless Sect worked together to dispose of the bodies of several fallen fellow disciples, and then Immortal King Haoyue and Fairy Feiyan joined another team to continue their journey of training in Jianxia.
After the news of the attack on the disciples of the Shadowless Sect spread, the disciples of the ten major immortal sects became more vigilant and dared not move forward quickly.
However, in Jianxia, the spiritual consciousness was blocked, and some dangerous things were difficult to defend. In the following period of time, sects were constantly attacked, and immortals were injured or even died.
Among them, the luck of the disciples of the Shadowless Sect seemed to be the worst. Almost every day, their team would be attacked by immortal birds and beasts, and disciples would continue to die in the attacks.
Thirty disciples of the Shadowless Sect had only walked one-third of the 100,000-mile Jianxia Road, and nearly half of them died.
Previously, the major sects had never experienced such a thing in Jianxia, which was really a bit weird.
Those surviving disciples of the Shadowless Sect were inevitably worried and worried, fearing that they would be the next to die.
In contrast to the experience of the Wuying Sect disciples, the Immortal Bow Hall disciples not only did not encounter attacks, but instead encountered opportunities constantly, and each disciple gained a lot of cultivation resources.
Especially the team where Fairy Lianyue was, they had a smooth journey and gained a lot. Except for Fairy Lianyue, the four fairies were all overjoyed.
Only Fairy Lianyue knew that it was Fang Bai who was hiding in the dark who kept taking care of them that made the Immortal Bow Hall disciples have these opportunities.
Fairy Lianyue knew that Fang Bai might also be in this Sword Gorge at this moment, and it was possible that he had disguised himself as a disciple of a sect. While secretly protecting himself, he was also clearing potential threats for the Immortal Bow Hall disciples and guiding them to find some rare cultivation resources.
Fairy Lianyue knew that the reason Fang Bai did this was because he was in the Immortal Bow Hall, and he loved the whole family, so he helped them.
"I heard that the Shadowless Sect has always followed the lead of the eight top forces, and a thousand years ago, they followed the eight top forces to participate in the battle to destroy the Imperial Palace... Then, the disciples of the Shadowless Sect are dying one after another. Could it be Fang Bai's doing?"
Fairy Lianyue suddenly had an idea and felt that with Fang Bai's clear-cut personality, this was very likely.
If the deaths of the Shadowless Sect disciples before were really caused by Fang Bai's secret actions, then I'm afraid that none of the remaining Shadowless Sect disciples would be able to reach the end of the Sword Gorge alive.
In a blink of an eye, many days have passed. The disciples of the major immortal sects who have been training in the Sword Gorge have already walked half of the Sword Gorge, but none of them have been able to sense the sword intent with the rhyme of Tao in the Sword Gorge, and they are very disappointed.
And of the thirty young disciples of the Shadowless Sect, only ten are left at this time. They are almost collapsed and gather together to protect themselves. They don't think about any chances at all, and just hope to reach the end of the Sword Gorge alive.
These ten disciples of the Shadowless Sect are not fools. They have already guessed that there must be an immortal who is deliberately targeting them.
Otherwise, why did the other nine major immortal sects have few disciples who died, but only the Wuying Sect had so many disciples who died?
Especially on the side of the Immortal Bow Hall, not a single disciple died, and seeing that they all looked happy and seemed to have gained a lot, the Wuying Sect disciples had great doubts about them, thinking that the constant deaths of their fellow disciples might be related to the Immortal Bow Hall.
Immortal King Haoyue was among these ten Wuying Sect disciples.
"I think we can follow the disciples of the Immortal Bow Hall, which should be safe."
Imperial King Haoyue suddenly proposed.
The other Wuying Sect disciples thought about it and felt that it made sense.
If the previous incident against the Wuying Sect disciples was really led by the Immortal Bow Hall in secret, then as long as these immortals kept a close eye on the disciples of the Immortal Bow Hall, they might really be able to reach the end of the Sword Gorge safely.
So, the ten Wuying Sect disciples found a team of Immortal Bow Hall disciples and followed them closely, while being fully alert to any disturbances around them.
This team of disciples from the Immortal Bow Palace was exactly the team that Fairy Lianyue and Fairy Biyu belonged to.
