Chapter 440: The Great Demon's Traces
There was a hint of surprise in the gloomy voice.
"Little Xinxin died? What a pity. In the beginning, I spent a lot of money to make her willing to practice magic."
Xing Gaohan's eyes were as sharp as a knife, "Didn't you do it?"
Yin Shuo has an expressionless face. As the Demon Lord of Wuji Island, he has his own majesty and arrogance.
"I am the Demon Lord of Wuji Island. How could I deceive you over such a trivial matter?"
Xing Gaohan said, "Then why did you lure her into practicing magic?"
Yin Shuo said, "It's just because of her special physique that she is a good furnace for cultivating turbid and yin evil spirits. It's a pity that she died a little early."
"You actually used my daughter to make a cauldron for gathering evil spirits!" Xing Gaohan gritted his teeth.
"Isn't this a lack of training? Why are you so angry? Is it possible that you, a late-stage Nascent Soul monk, really care about a descendant?"
The gloomy tone was understated, with a bit of joking in it, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
Hearing this, Xing Gaohan took a deep breath.
He didn't seem to want to fight Yin Shuo here, so he suppressed the hatred and anger in his heart.
"Then how did you know about the existence of the secret realm of Hades Mountain?"
"The secret realm is a place left over from ancient times. Anyone who is destined can naturally enter it."
While speaking, Yin Shuo glanced at Xing Wenyao intentionally or unintentionally.
However, this subtle move could not escape Xing Gaohan's sharp eyes.
He looked back at Xing Wenyao and frowned.
Seeing this, an imperceptible sneer flashed across Yin Shuo's eyes, as if his conspiracy had succeeded.
"Xing Gaohan, the ancestors of the Jing family and I are not the only ones who broke into this secret realm."
Xing Gaohan said, "What do you mean?"
Yin Shuo spoke slowly, with a hint of solemnity in his tone.
Yin Shuo said, "Just now when I was high in the sky, I discovered two unusual figures. One of them had an extremely restrained aura, and even I couldn't detect the depth of his cultivation. The other figure was even weirder. He was two feet tall, and his whole body was covered in Even though they are covered by their cloaks, there is no trace of their aura leaking out. I suspect that they are not human beings.”
Xing Gaohan's face changed slightly.
"Monster! Not good! The top of the mountain..."
However, his words suddenly stopped.
Then, he turned to Xing Wenyao and said, "Hurry up the mountain!"
After saying that, he quickly swept towards the foot of the mountain, clinging to the mountain and galloping all the way up.
Xing Wenyao's expression also changed, and he spoke very quickly to Xing Yixuan and Xing Li Rendao.
"This secret area is filled with ghost mist, and the ghost mist becomes denser as you go higher up. There are countless ghosts hidden in the sky. Do not rush up the mountain or fly into the sky. There are many ruins scattered at the foot of this mountain. , there may be some treasures inside, you can explore it."
"The opening of the secret realm here will last for one year. After the expiration, the survivors will be forcibly sent out and returned to the place where they entered the secret realm. You and others must act with caution to save their lives first."
After saying that, Xing Wenyao also headed towards the mountain.
Yin Shuo and Jing Wuming looked at each other and headed towards the mountain one after another.
Before leaving, Jing Wuming warned Jing Lie.
"You are just at the foot of the mountain, waiting for the secret realm to close."
As soon as the four Yuanying monks left, only a group of Jindan monks were left in the square.
As for the other people who were involved in the secret realm, because their cultivation level was too low to resist the erosion of the ghost mist, they had gradually begun to transform into ghosts and slowly turned into resentful spirits.
These Jindan monks are divided into three groups.
The first team is Jing Lie and four other members of the Jing family.
The other team consisted of five members of the Xing family, headed by Xing Liren and Xing Yixuan.
There are also five third-level alchemy masters who form a team of their own.
As for Song Wen, after entering the secret realm, he disguised himself as a late-stage foundation-building monk.
He saw that other foundation-building monks were unable to resist the erosion of the ghost mist, so he pretended to be eroded by the ghost mist.
In order to prevent others from seeing the flaw, Song Wen even completely stopped the flow of mana and allowed the ghost mist to invade his body.
At the same time, Song Wen also discovered something.
The "Corpse King's Reincarnation Technique" restrains the ghost mist far better than the "Corpse King's Blood Training".
Even if he does not run the "Corpse King Reincarnation Technique", the ghost mist will not have the slightest impact on him. At least the concentration of ghost mist in the square does not pose any threat.
Gradually, Song Wen found that he could no longer pretend.
The monks with cultivation level below Jindan were corroded by ghost energy and slowly turned into half-human, half-ghost monsters.
The physical body of the female cultivator at the sixth level of Qi training next to him even showed signs of melting, as if a piece of wax had been exposed to heat.
Black viscous liquid flowed all over her body, and the scene was extremely strange.
The female cultivator's consciousness has completely dissipated, and her soul has turned into a thoughtless wraith.
The situation of other foundation-building monks is better than hers, but the situation is limited, and their souls are undergoing changes.
The four Nascent Soul cultivators left, and Song Wen immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Without the Nascent Soul cultivator by his side, it would be much easier for him to escape from the square.
Just as Song Wen was looking for a suitable opportunity to escape, the conversation of Xing Yixuan and others rang out in the square.
"Xing Liren, you worked so hard to refine the Heavenly Spirit Pill, but in the end you became a clown."
Xing Liren said coldly, "Xing Yixuan, you are just a pawn in the hands of the two ancestors, no better than me. At least I got the Tianling Pill, but you got nothing."
Xing Yixuan mocked disdainfully, "Tianling Pill? Humph, wait until one year is up and you return to the clan. Let's see if you can keep the Tianling Pill."
The two were tit for tat, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Gan Hong hurriedly stood up to persuade, "Young Master, Miss Xing, please listen to me. Now we should still put the overall situation first, and the best policy is to unite against the outside world."
The "outside world" in his words naturally refers to the five Jindan loose cultivators and the three people from the Jing family.
Xing Yixuan stared at Xing Liren with a bad look, "The five loose cultivators are nothing to be afraid of. The Jing family is a big trouble. You are the one who invited them, so you can do whatever you want."
Before Xing Liren had time to speak, Jing Lie came over and said.
"Our Jing family has no intention of conflicting with your Xing family. How about we go our separate ways and look for opportunities?"
Xing Liren said, "Okay, let's do as my uncle said."
Based on the actions of several Yuanying cultivators before, it is not difficult to guess that the real treasure is on the top of the mountain, and these Jindan cultivators cannot go to the top of the mountain, so naturally they can't get any treasures.
Instead of fighting to the death, it is better to make peace temporarily.
Xing Yixuan said, "I have no objection to making peace with the Jing family. However, these five Jindan cultivators must not be left alive!"
As she spoke, Xing Yixuan flashed and rushed towards the five cultivators.
"That's exactly what I meant!"
Xing Liren, Gan Hong, the bull-headed man, and the horse-headed man all rushed out.
Seeing this, Jing Lie shouted, "Jing family members, listen to my orders, quickly assist the Xing family and eliminate the thieves who trespassed into the secret realm!"
