Don't try to cultivate immortality; mortals live longer than immortals.

Despite defeating the formidable enemy, Jiang Yaoguang showed no joy. Things were far more complicated than she had imagined. In this mere Qi Refining level secret realm, a Vengeful Demon had actually appeared.

Recalling the records in the textbook, Fairy Yaoguang's expression grew increasingly gloomy. This newly born demonic thought was nothing special, but that was relative to the Golden Core stage. Ordinary Qi Refining stage novices did not have her experience and strength. Facing the Resentful Heavenly Demon would be a nine-out-of-ten chance of death.

The college students participating in this trial are probably in danger!

What should I do?

Jiang Yaoguang thought of the instructions her instructor Zheng Lei had given her before she left: to take good care of the children in the instance and to make sure that as many as they could return, that was the best she could do.

but now……

Fairy Yaoguang gritted her teeth.

He couldn't be in two places at once, and moreover, Duan Xuan's safety was the one he had to ensure, not the safety of others.

At this point, she couldn't care less about keeping her identity secret, nor did she have time to worry about arousing suspicion. She activated her nano-spiritual energy digital detector, a device with communication capabilities: "Duan Xuan, where are you?"

However, there was no response.

Jiang Yaoguang sighed. It seemed that the other party had exceeded the range that the nano-spiritual energy value detector could communicate with.

She slowed her escape and stopped in mid-air. She looked up at the distant horizon. This secret realm was about 3 square kilometers. Although it was not a super-large area, it was full of mountains and rivers. Finding someone there was like finding a needle in a haystack.

What should we do?

The woman's face was full of frustration. As the leader of this mission and Duan Xuan's protector, she was supposed to prepare multiple backup plans according to the regulations for participating in social practice.

For example, the tactical backpack given to that kid, with the permission of the Divine Lord, had a special locator secretly left inside.

It wasn't about surveillance, but rather about knowing Duan Xuan's location at all times so that he could secretly protect him.

But from the very beginning, this thing was inexplicably subjected to strong electromagnetic interference.

This situation was completely unexpected by Fairy Yaoguang, and the other backup plans were in the same situation.

In short, it's all invalid!

Looking back at the history of the Immortal Alliance, no such situation has ever been encountered before. Although Fairy Yaoguang is a Golden Core cultivator, she seems somewhat bewildered and unsure of what to do in the face of all these unexpected blows.

Just then, a beeping sound entered my ears.

Fairy Yaoguang suddenly looked up and saw an exquisite map, along with coordinates and light spots, flashing continuously on the virtual screen of the nano-spiritual energy value detector.

A line of text came into view.

"If you want to find Duan Xuan, follow the clues."

"this……"

Fairy Yaoguang narrowed her long, beautiful eyes.

His face showed no joy, but rather full of vigilance.

This message is too strange.

It's like a Trojan horse program being implanted after a system has been compromised.

It gives people a strong sense of being trapped.

But after a slight hesitation, Fairy Yaoguang still decided to go!

It's not that she's stupid, but that she had no choice; this is currently the only clue.

Secondly, since she didn't actually descend here, it's just a magical puppet that has signed a waiver of liability, meaning it won't have to pay for any damages.

What else is there to question? For the sake of that kid's safety and to avoid accumulating a mountain of knives and a sea of ​​fire in the future, even if she knows that there are dangers ahead, she has to grit her teeth and forge ahead.

……

"whee!"

On the other side, Lingyun looked very smug.

All of this was naturally her doing.

Whether it was blocking location information or deliberately sending the coordinates just now, it was this girl behind the scenes guiding Fairy Yaoguang.

However, she didn't send Duan Xuan's coordinates, but rather the location of Zhou Ran, which was deduced through big data simulation.

Since the host is unwilling to abandon his brother, trying to persuade him will only annoy him, and Lingyun certainly wouldn't do such a foolish thing.

Don't be fooled by her usual cheerful demeanor; AI's underlying logic is inherently calm and rational.

Since we can't stop it, we need to change our approach and think about how to ensure the host's safety.

The answer is simple: let others explore the way.

Fairy Yaoguang is the best choice. With her in front, even if there is a trap, the host won't be foolish enough to step into it.

Actually, it's not just this woman.

Lingyun also notified other college students.

However, the messages sent were different.

There are two types.

Lingyun wouldn't send ordinary college students to their deaths, not out of pity, but because these guys' strength was insufficient to stop the Resentful Heavenly Demon, and there was no point in sending them to their deaths in vain.

Therefore, Lingyun sent a reminder message.

It wasn't very detailed.

It was just a simple instruction to tell them to find a place to hide.

As long as we can get through the remaining time, we can return to Shuiyun Star without any problem. There's no need to go and die now.

The other type of message was sent to the top performers among these college students.

That's right, they are the ones who are doing well in their studies and have a good chance of transferring to a four-year university program.

Don't underestimate it.

The reason they initially chose to attend junior college was because their spiritual roots were only so-so during the initial testing. Now that they have a chance to advance to a bachelor's degree program, it proves that their abilities in other areas are definitely not weak.

Our combat effectiveness is guaranteed!

Such a being is fully qualified to come and cause trouble, or at least to lend Duan Xuan a hand and further reduce the risks of the host's trip.

Of course, all of this was Lingyun's secret plan. She did not tell Duan Xuan in detail, not because she was deliberately hiding it, but because she was afraid that her host was young, impulsive, and hot-blooded, and she did not want others to get involved.

At this moment, the little girl was secretly making plans while chatting with Duan Xuan about what they might face next.

"Yun'er, do you mean we might be facing real extraterrestrial demons next?"

"Yes, as I just said, although the Vengeful Demons seem vicious, they are essentially just a group of temporary workers who have been tricked into coming here. The extraterrestrial demons are the real bosses behind the scenes, and they are the ones we need to deal with. But don't worry, because of the rules of heaven and earth, what they have sent is just a wisp of their soul. Their strength won't be too outrageous, and they will also bring great benefits."

"benefit?"

Duan Xuan was taken aback for a moment, then an expression of interest appeared on his face: "What are the benefits?"

"It is rare for students to encounter vengeful demons while participating in social practice, but if we look at the entire Guixu, it has happened quite a few times over the past thousands of years. As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune are intertwined. Almost every time they encounter vengeful demons, a rare treasure will appear."

"Oh, are you sure?"

"Of course it's certain. Every experience, the process and records will be input into the AI ​​model. I've seen the statistics. Once you encounter a vengeful demon, the probability of a rare treasure appearing is usually as high as 97.5%."
