Having cultivated myself into an immortal, all I want to do is raise female disciples.

The cultivators of the Holy Feather Sect all raised their heads, gazing up at the presence that seemed to symbolize holy light.

A hint of determination appeared on her stunningly beautiful face, but her lips were still trembling slightly, a testament to her inability to conceal her inner fear.

Even so, she still stepped forward. Under the rapidly receding white light, she shouted sharply and rushed forward to the edge of the holy light, where the holy power brought by her holy physique burst forth once again.

"From this moment forward, all disciples of the Holy Feather Sect must leave this ruin and return to their sect to report this matter!"

"Then, Your Holiness..."

"I'll buy you some time."

Duan Xingchen said something in a low voice, her pale face not showing to the disciples of the Holy Feather Sect. She simply turned her back to the group of cultivators, not letting them see the panic in her eyes.

As soon as she finished speaking, Duan Xingchen, with her spiritual energy fully activated, once again became a source of light illuminating the surroundings. Centered on her, the holy light that had been rapidly receding showed signs of awakening again.

But that was just a sign. After all, her holy body was not inexhaustible. Just like Jiang Yuetian, whose blood evaporated after prolonged use of the Lava Body, the unrestrained use of the elemental body would put a considerable burden on the user's body.

"Your Holiness!"

All the disciples of the Holy Feather Sect present were absolute believers in the Holy Profound Gold, and as the recipient of the Holy Profound Gold's blessing, Duan Xingchen was practically a god in their hearts. Now that Duan Xingchen was asking to stay and buy them time, how could they possibly agree?

But Duan Xingchen wouldn't allow them to stay—

"Get out of here, all of you! This is my order! If you are still disciples of the Holy Feather Sect, then leave this place and return to the sect to report this incident!"

command.

The Holy Maiden's decree shall be obeyed as if the Sect Master were personally present.

This is what the Holy Feather Sect taught them from the day they entered the sect.

At this moment, everyone is silent.

The light faded and darkness descended. They all knew that if they didn't run, they would face death. No one wanted to die, and naturally, no one was willing to die.

Finally, under Duan Xingchen's stern command, some people gritted their teeth, stamped their feet, and ran quickly toward the exit of the ruins.

Once one happened, another followed. Although they were still struggling internally, faced with death, they had no other choice but to run...

"Holy Maiden, we will send someone back to save you!"

After leaving these words, the last cultivator from the Holy Feather Sect quickly departed from the corrupted hall.

save?

Let alone Duan Xingchen, even the person who said those words knew in their heart that by the time the rescue arrived, Duan Xingchen would probably be long gone.

Yes, Duan Xingchen never intended to sacrifice the lives of his other disciples.

If the price for allowing other Holy Feather Sect disciples to survive is the sacrifice of some—

She is willing to be one of those people.

Holding a pure white sword, Duan Xingchen stood like a guardian deity before the overwhelming darkness. Her initial spiritual energy at the beginning of the Kaiyuan stage could no longer sustain her in battle, so the holy light she was unleashing at this moment was all she had left.

A tall, humanoid phantom appeared faintly behind her, and the holy light emanated from this phantom.

At this moment, each impact of darkness caused the white phantom to shake violently, its light flickering erratically like a broken light bulb.

"You two, get out of here right now!"

Duan Xingchen clenched her teeth, blood seeping from her lips. She knew she probably couldn't hold on any longer.

Although it was because of these two guys that she ended up in this state, Ye Yuchan and Zhang Ruoxue are still two lives. The Holy Feather Sect takes it as its mission to eliminate demons and protect the righteous, so how can it stand by and watch them die?

"Uh……"

Ye Yuchan and Zhang Ruoxue exchanged a glance; neither of them had figured out what was going on yet.

According to the old rogue, they should have been teleported to a place called the Yangque Fire Domain, but now it seems that the indescribable demons and the female cultivator in the white and gold Taoist robes—these two factors combined don't seem to be in the Yangque Fire Domain at all.

Could it be that the old rogue's Anywhere Door is also malfunctioning?

etc--

That said, where is the old rogue?

Although the current situation looks dangerous, Ye Yuchan and Zhang Ruoxue don't seem to be in any danger at all. Instead, they are looking around as if they are looking for something.

When Duan Xingchen saw that the two people still hadn't left, he immediately became anxious, and his voice was almost a shout—

"What are you all standing there for! Get out of here! Are you going to stay and wait to die?"

"Uh..." Ye Yuchan, sitting in her wheelchair, glanced at the darkness that was constantly transforming into waves that crashed against the white phantom, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Um, did you see one just now..."

Before he could finish speaking...

hum~

Another spatial rift appeared above Duan Xingchen's head.

From the spatial rift, a pure white figure descended from the sky.

Not again?!

Duan Xingchen subconsciously looked up, but this time she was greeted by a pair of cloth shoes.

boom!

The young man named Yunping fell vertically down, his feet landing on Duan Xingchen's forehead, forcing her to the ground and even crushing the spiritual energy emanating from her body.

The white phantom, tens of meters high, vanished instantly. The pitch black that could terrify even the deepest abyss was no longer hindered by its natural enemy and began to spread rapidly in all directions.

The light... disappeared.

Meanwhile, the young man who had extinguished the holy light stared blankly around as if nothing had happened. He looked at Zhang Ruoxue and Ye Yuchan, then at Duan Xingchen, who was lying on the ground at his feet, his mind blank, and blinked.

The scene was somewhat different from what he had imagined...

Different?

"Can someone explain to me... what's going on here?"

In the pitch black, Yu Chan managed to make out her surroundings with her spiritual energy, and when Yun Ping asked her a question, she stretched out her hand.

"You old scoundrel, you just stepped on Edison's light bulb and turned it out."

Yunping: "Huh?"

8. So, did the Anywhere Door malfunction?

The light disappeared.

Since there was no Holy Body, or rather, the possessor of the Holy Body was currently in a state of mental malfunction, the only Holy Light that could resist the unfathomable darkness vanished.

Darkness descends.

Yunping looked around blankly, completely bewildered, unable to figure out what was happening.

He remembered that he had indeed set the teleportation coordinates of the Anywhere Door in the Yangque Fire Domain. Although he had not set foot in the Kuntian Domain for a long time, his memory should not be wrong.

Even if it's wrong, it shouldn't be this outrageous.

At the very least, they should be teleported to a place with fire, right?

Right now, there's no light at all, let alone any fire. It's pitch black, so dark you can't see your hand in front of your face.

Oh, no, it used to be lit, but that old rogue just stomped on it and destroyed it.

"Hiss..."

It was a sound that didn't seem to come from a living being; it sounded more like a hard object rubbing against a metal plate—quite sharp and eerie.

Yet, hidden within this eeriness was a hint of mockery, as if it were mocking Duan Xingchen, with cunning and treacherous light flashing from their scarlet eyes.

The darkness slowly crept towards Yunping and his group.

Without the threat of the Holy Light, the darkness became even more rampant, and hundreds of demons emerged from the black mud once more, writhing their irregular bodies with bared fangs and claws, looking particularly disgusting.

“These things…”

Yun Ping scanned the entire area. The monsters around him, whose growth defied biological logic, were not so terrifying to him. Instead, they made him feel a little surprised. "How did they get out again?"

"Them? You know what these disgusting things are?"

Ye Yuchan pushed the wheelchair to Yunping's side, gently tugging at Yunping's sleeve with her small hand. A look of disgust appeared on her pretty face, which was half covered by a silver mask.

Zhang Ruoxue slowly moved to Yunping's side, "They don't look like the teacher's [acquaintances]."

Yunping nodded. Facing the ever-approaching darkness, there was no fear in his eyes, but rather a hint of curiosity as he stared at the lump of black mud.

Qianxun Novel Free Transfer Group 255595300 "These guys should be considered as demonic creatures, but they are different. They are pure demons, unlike those demons that can talk about people. They are products of error."

"An incorrect...product?"

"Just think of it as their creators being inexperienced when they were making them, and they ended up with a bunch of monsters."

Just then, Yunping felt a tremor beneath his feet. He looked down and realized there was a girl standing there.

"Oh, I'm sorry."

Yun Ping apologized softly, then stepped off Duan Xingchen's head and looked back at Duan Xingchen, who was slowly getting up.

Because of her holy constitution, Duan Xingchen's face remained unstained despite her head coming into close contact with the dirty ground; she still maintained her image as a holy maiden.

Even so, she only glanced at Yunping blankly before her eyes flashed with anger.

Having been attacked from above twice in a row, Duan Xingchen's mentality was almost broken by the three people in front of him. Moreover, judging from their conversation, the three of them were actually in cahoots!

Duan Xingchen even suspected that these three people might have been sent by another sect specifically to target him!

But then she thought about it again and decided not to get angry.

Because getting angry now... is pointless.

Darkness was constantly encroaching on everything around her. She could feel thousands of bloodthirsty and greedy gazes falling on her. The demons that had once feared her holy body were now stirring restlessly.

Yunping appeared to be an ordinary person, and the other two were not highly skilled in cultivation, so they obviously could not escape death.

In other words—

Dead.

The anger in his eyes slowly faded, replaced by a sense of powerless despair.

"That's enough, there's no need to apologize."
