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

One after another, the fluctuations of spiritual energy began to disappear. Although the exact number was unknown, it was roughly estimated that there were at least more than a hundred, or even more.

How could such a large number of cultivators perish in such a short time?

This is simply too incredible!

Moreover, she did not feel any particularly strong aftershocks of the battle. Could it be that they were concealed by the formation?

Something terrible must have happened in that place!

Although the specifics were unclear, curiosity compelled Fairy Yaoguang to find out the whole story.

She wasn't afraid of the crisis, since what she had descended into the Azure Sky Immortal Cultivation World was merely a wisp of her soul attached to the Divine Machine Mystic Puppet.

Moreover, a waiver was signed before the operation, meaning that if this divine-level puppet were to perish in the instance, he would not be required to compensate for the loss.

Of course, she went to check not just out of curiosity, but more importantly, because she was worried that Duan Xuan might be there.

This point must be confirmed!

Nothing more!

Even if everyone else participating in this social practice fails, that kid absolutely cannot make any mistakes.

If I don't want to live with debt in the future, I must bring him back safely.

"Kid, you better not do anything stupid!"

Fairy Yaoguang bit her lip, her unease inexplicably deepening.

Jiang Yaoguang was followed by two attendants for more than ten miles behind her. Yu Jinfeng and Xu Lingyue were filled with humiliation, but they dared not make any rash moves, much less desert.

They had already experienced the woman's terror firsthand, and moreover, they had been placed under a restriction by her. To escape now would be tantamount to playing with their lives.

"Damn it, if I do nothing, will they really let me go after this trial ends?"

Xu Lingyue was filled with regret. As the saying goes, "If you don't do stupid things, you won't die," but now that things have come to this, there's no point in saying anything.

As the top-ranked Qi Refining disciple of the Burning Heaven Palace, he was unwilling to perish like this. He still had a bright future ahead of him and was determined to devise a plan to escape.

He pondered deeply in his heart.

Xu Lingyue was unaware that a faint wisp of black energy was silently approaching him.

No, to be precise, I got close to both of them.

On the surface of the black mist, a strange demonic eye appeared, scrutinizing the two of them from head to toe.

It's as if we're making a comparison.

Then, in a flash, it darted from between his eyebrows into his sea of ​​consciousness.

"what!"

Xu Lingyue clutched his head, letting out a roar that sounded inhuman. His whole body trembled, and his escape light suddenly plummeted from mid-air. His face was contorted, and screams continued to reach our ears.

This sudden turn of events stunned Yu Jinfeng, who was standing nearby, leaving him at a loss. Meanwhile, Fairy Yaoguang, who was more than ten miles away, turned around abruptly upon hearing the sound.

His eyes narrowed slightly, his tone grave: "This is... possession?"

She didn't see clearly what had just happened, but as a Golden Core Ancestor with extensive knowledge, this kind of situation is usually mentioned in the elective courses for master's students.

The thought crossed her mind, and Jiang Yaoguang reacted without hesitation. She raised her right hand, and a crescent-shaped wind blade shot out from her fingertip.

In an instant, a loud whooshing sound arose as a wind blade slashed fiercely toward Xu Lingyue's neck.

Regardless of whether it's possession or not, let's kill this kid first.

Since he was a cultivator from the Azure Sky Realm, Jiang Yaoguang acted without hesitation. She even activated the bone-dissolving nail restriction left in his body in an instant.

It flowed along the bloodstream towards the other person's heart.

In that split second, Xu Lingyue suddenly raised his head.

His eyes turned emotionless gray-white, and his entire body was enveloped in a strange black aura. Facing the crescent-shaped wind blades flying towards him, he showed no fear whatsoever.

Its gaping maw opened wide and swallowed the wind blade whole, while the bone-melting nail aimed at its heart had no effect whatsoever.

Jiang Yaoguang's pretty face turned pale instantly: "Resentment... Heavenly Demon?"

……

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Several hundred miles away, Duan Xuan looked at the madman-like figure before him and asked, "Yun'er, what is a Vengeful Demon?"

Sensing that Jiang Yaoguang was approaching, Duan Xuan slipped away and left the place of trouble ahead of time. Unexpectedly, he was ambushed by a few clueless guys on the way.

This kind of scene is not uncommon in dungeons like the Scarlet Trial.

It's just a murder-for-treasure plot!

It's incredibly outdated.

Duan Xuan easily turned the tables and killed his opponent.

They initially thought it was just a minor incident, but unexpectedly, just as they were about to kill the last guy, something happened.

How so?

The other person started dancing awkwardly for no apparent reason, trembling all over, convulsing, drool and tears streaming down their face...

Duan Xuan was completely stunned.

what's going on?

Could it be that a dignified cultivator would suffer from epilepsy?

Or is this guy trying to fool everyone by doing this, hoping to survive with an unexpected performance?

Did he think he would show mercy because he felt sorry for him?

It has to be said that this thought process is quite peculiar, but Duan Xuan ignored it. Whether you are having a mental breakdown or just being dramatic, he neither cares nor pays attention. He will kill the enemy in front of him first and then make a decision.

But something unexpected happened. Originally, this was just a cultivator at the seventh level of Qi Refining. With Duan Xuan's strength, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him an ant.

One punch, one kid.

But when it came to actually fighting, he actually blocked his own attack.

This truly surprised Duan Xuan.

So he unleashed his flying sword, slashing and hacking, but to his surprise, his opponent still handled it with ease.

"this……"

Duan Xuan immediately sensed that something was wrong.

He is a true Heavenly Spiritual Root possessor, and his combat power is far beyond what other beings of the same level can match. Although he is still a Qi Refiner, his combat power is as high as 165 after being evaluated by the Nano Spiritual Power Digital Detector.

It should be noted that at the same level, that is, the median combat power of the tenth level of Qi Refining is only 120 points, and the maximum peak value of fluctuation will not exceed 144.

On the surface, it's only a little over 20 points higher, but don't forget that at the same level, every point of improvement in combat power is extremely difficult, and the resulting differences are also very obvious.

With his combat power of 165 points, Duan Xuan could almost take on three other cultivators at the tenth level of Qi Refining.

As it turned out, this guy was only at the seventh level of Qi Refining, yet he managed to block my attacks one after another.

This is clearly illogical.

Of course, although the situation was somewhat unexpected, Duan Xuan was not some random little karaomi who could be easily framed.

Sensing that the other party was extraordinary, he also became serious.

The result was, of course, predictable.

Although his opponent blocked his previous attacks, he still couldn't escape being crushed.

After about half a cup of tea's time, he was killed with a single sword strike!

However, upon seeing the corpse, Lingyun's face turned solemn: "This is... a Demon of Resentment!"
