Cultivating immortality relies on spatial abilities; defying fate to become the protagonist.

Chapter 77 The Mystery of the Poisonous Swamp (Part Two)
Xingbai carefully examined the entire poisonous swamp before concluding, "Hanhan, a Nascent Soul cultivator is currently in seclusion; he is an out-and-out evil cultivator."

He cultivated using the blood of other cultivators. In the room outside his secluded cultivation, I found more than ten men and women, aged between ten and fifteen. Their fate was to bleed to death.

"Are there other cultivators imprisoned elsewhere?" Gu Shihan asked, frowning.

"Yes, there are seven young girls locked in a cave outside the stone house. The highest level of their cultivation is Foundation Establishment, and most of them are at the late stage of Qi Refining. They... they show signs of having been sexually exploited, and they look lifeless."

"Although their foundations are somewhat damaged, if they are properly cared for and can advance in their cultivation, there is still some hope for the future. If they are subjected to further depletion of their energy, their path to immortality will be cut off," Xingbai said with a sigh.

Yu Tong was an impatient person, and upon hearing this, her anger flared up. She exclaimed, "Sister, I'm going out and burning them right now! They're awful!"

Gu Shihan quickly pulled back the agitated Yu Tong and comforted her, saying, "It's only a matter of time before we kill them. The evil cultivators here are all wicked and must be wiped out without exception. We need to plan this carefully and not alert them so they can escape."

“Yu Tong, Han Han is right. These people are rotten to the core. If one of them escapes, ten, a hundred, or even more people will be harmed!” Xing Bai also chimed in to persuade them.

"I understand!" Yu Tong quieted down, and the group gathered together to discuss what to do.

The masked man surveyed the area outside before angrily returning to the stone house, cursing, "What the hell! Don't let me catch you!"

The masked man circled the stone house a few times, then walked out and returned with a woman in less than ten breaths.

The woman's eyes were filled with terror as the masked man threw her onto the stone bed without a second thought, letting out a muffled groan of pain.

Shi Han's eyes darkened. Was this masked man about to do something despicable?

The masked man leaned forward, grabbed the woman's hair, and forced her to look at his face. He said viciously, "So you're a proud and pure fairy, Qingfu. So what if your father is a Nascent Soul cultivator? His precious darling is still moaning in my bed."

Let me tell you, I used to cherish you so much, I loved you so much, but you threw my sincerity to the ground and fell for my rival instead.

Haha, what good could he have done? He bled to death, and his corpse became food for my baby. Just thinking about it makes me happy.

The woman calmed down from her initial shock and said, "What do you want? I'm in your hands now, my life is in your hands."

The masked man seemed to be enraged by the woman's calmness, and he raised his hand and slapped her, causing blood to trickle from the corner of her mouth.

The masked man pointed a finger at the woman, and she collapsed limply onto the stone bed, her eyes calm, like a still pool of water.

The masked man reached out to strip the woman of her clothes, but a ball of flame quickly engulfed him, and a scream rang out.

There was no further movement in less than ten breaths, leaving only a little black ash.

Gu Shihan appeared in the stone house, raised his hand and fed the female cultivator a pill, releasing the spiritual power that had been sealed on her body.

"Who...who are you?" the woman asked calmly, without any emotion.

"I'm here to save everyone... Time is of the essence, you should go into this Qiankun Room first." Gu Shihan didn't care whether she agreed or not, grabbed the female cultivator and shoved her inside.

"Hanhan, you and Yutong go to the Nascent Soul Old Monster. Don't waste time with him. Just use the Red Lotus Karmic Fire to avoid any unforeseen complications."

"I'll seal off the exit; we must capture everyone inside." Xing Bai kept an eye on the chaos outside. "Okay!" Gu Shihan and Yu Tong were escorted by Xing Bai to the secluded cultivation place of the Nascent Soul cultivator. Perhaps he was too confident, because there were no powerful traps or mechanisms in the secluded cultivation place, only an ordinary array to prevent disturbance.

Yu Tong quickly encircled an area of ​​ten zhang in radius with Phoenix Fire.

Gu Shihan's crimson lotus karmic fire pressed down on the Nascent Soul cultivator, who suddenly opened his eyes, and the pressure spread outwards.

Fortunately, Gu Shihan's spiritual cultivation had reached the mid-Nascent Soul stage, so this pressure was nothing to her. A spark landed on the Nascent Soul cultivator.

The Nascent Soul cultivator, who had just been looking disdainful, suddenly changed his expression, and his blood-red blade flew out, striking towards Gu Shihan.

Gu Shihan nimbly dodged, and the Red Lotus Karmic Fire suddenly exploded, covering the entire secluded cultivation area.

"Ah! What kind of ghost fire is this?! Which fellow Daoist is it? Please have mercy! Whatever you want, if I have it, I will give it all to you! Ah! Stop! Stop!" In the firelight, the Nascent Soul cultivator jumped around and shouted urgently.

"The one who's going to take your life!" Gu Shihan didn't care about anything else, and increased the firepower, watching helplessly as the Nascent Soul cultivator's corpse turned to ash. A black and red soul trembled and floated out, looking for an opportunity to escape.

"Spare me, and I will tell you the locations of several ancient cultivator caves if you spare me."

"Ancient cultivation cave? Not interested. You can live if you want," Gu Shihan said, her eyes darting around.

"Sister, no!" Yu Tong exclaimed anxiously, fearing that Gu Shihan had been bribed by the ancient cultivator's cave, and hurriedly tried to stop her.

Gu Shihan gave her a reassuring look, then looked at the soul hiding in the ring of fire again and said calmly, "Did you come from the west?"

Startled, Gu Shihan quickly looked up, her eyes gleaming with astonishment. What else could Gu Shihan not understand?
"How did they get here? How many people came?"

"I don't know how I got here. I was fighting with someone and was blasted into a stone forest. I don't know how I triggered a random teleportation array, and when I woke up, I was here."

The soul didn't want to die and tried to distract Gu Shihan, looking for an opportunity to escape.

Gu Shihan frowned and asked again, "What's the situation in the West now?"

"Immortals and demons share the world! Chaos reigns!"

"Divide the world equally? Then what about you? Are you a demonic cultivator or an evil cultivator?! Depriving cultivators of their lives to cultivate, do you still have a heart?" Gu Shihan said coldly.

"What is evil? What is demon? Aren't evil and demon just terms used by you self-proclaimed righteous cultivators?"
Are we wrong? Since cultivation techniques exist, we are not wrong. There are three thousand great paths, how do you know that this is not one of them? The soul found a place with a lighter color and rushed over quickly.

"Ahhh..." A scream rang out, and the nascent soul turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared into the world.

"Yu Tong, burn down those blood pools, I'm going to rescue people!"

"Yes!" Yu Tong replied, and soon several blood pools were engulfed in flames, along with the Gu worms.

Gu Shihan took all the people in the cave and stone house into the Qiankun House. After doing all this, she rushed towards the other somewhat bewildered evil cultivators.
