The improved female villains regained their memories.

Mu Xiaobai nodded emphatically: "Don't worry, leave everything else to me."

Although he didn't understand why Tian Bulian said that everything would be over once the God of Wine was found, out of trust in Tian Bulian, Mu Xiaobai didn't ask anything and instead carried Tian Bulian on his back.

“Miss Bu Lian, what shall I do next…”

Just as she was about to speak, she saw a person stagger out from the depths of the mist.

"!?"

Her body tensed instantly, and at the same time, her spiritual energy probe enveloped her without any concealment. Su Murong, who was wandering around aimlessly because he couldn't find his way, came into contact with the spiritual energy and was delighted.

"This is the aura of a living person!"

She leaped out of the mist with a whoosh, blocking Mu Xiaobai and Tian Bulian's path, arms crossed, her eyes scrutinizing them.

"It's you guys..."

After fighting Luo Benmo, the two of them were spying on each other. Su Murong exposed them without hesitation. After exchanging information, he and Tian Bulian exchanged some information.

To be honest, these two people are mysterious. Su Murong guessed that they were probably related to the legendary Guardian Heaven Sect. Seeing them here now, she was even more certain that they were connected to the Guardian Heaven Sect and that their appearance at Tianren Mountain was probably to steal the Sword Soul Heart.

"Oh dear, someone has seen me looking so ugly." Tian Bulian said with a helpless smile, "Miss Su, what a coincidence that we meet at this time."

"What's so coincidental about it? It was probably arranged by the person who set up the formation. I could figure it out, but you couldn't?" Su Murong sneered. "However, I still have to thank you for the information you gave me before, which gave me a preliminary understanding of the women around the doctor."

"No need for thanks, it's just a normal transaction." Tian Bulian coughed and said with a smile, "I'm in such a sorry state right now, how about Miss Su lends me a hand again?"

"If I'm not mistaken, you're here to steal the Sword Soul Heart, aren't you?"

Mu Xiaobai turned her head slightly and looked at Tian Bulian.

To be honest, Mu Xiaobai didn't know what they were there for either. After all, during the meeting, Ling Tiandu spoke like a riddle, only saying that they could go wherever they wanted without giving any definite answer.

Not knowing how to respond to Su Murong, Mu Xiaobai could only look helplessly at Tian Bulian.

Tian Bulian pondered for a moment, then answered Su Murong's question directly without avoiding it: "Yes and no."

"??"

Su Murong was stunned for a moment, then grinned maliciously: "So you mean I can hit you, or I can choose not to hit you?"

"It's best not to hit me, Miss Su. You should be able to see the current situation. You are a mortal. Even if you have special powers to fight against immortals, you cannot break through this formation with your own strength alone."

Su Murong narrowed his eyes, looked at Tian Bulian behind Mu Xiaobai, and sneered: "Your face is swollen like a pig's head, but you're talking like a human being."

Tian Bulian: "..."

Mu Xiaobai's body trembled involuntarily as he suddenly felt the murderous aura emanating from behind him.

It's clear that Miss Tianbulan really cares about how people perceive her appearance.

Just as the two were about to draw their swords, they suddenly heard the roars of tigers coming from the mist not far away, and their expressions changed drastically at the same time.

Mu Xiaobai's expression also turned ugly: "That voice..."

"Let's cooperate for now," Su Murong said, taking the initiative to soften his stance. "This formation is fraught with danger, and the master of the formation is constantly tormenting us. Our only chance is to unite."

“Miss Su is right,” Tian Bulian agreed with a smile. “Anyway, you need us to clear the way for you, don’t you?”

"Well said. If you can take me out of here, I'll be happy and might even be able to cure your poison," Su Murong replied with a grin.

"My lords, let's stop talking for now." Mu Xiaobai smiled wryly. "The roar of the tiger is approaching, and we're about to be surrounded."

Strictly speaking, they were already surrounded.

The mist dissipated for a moment, revealing tiger demons that surrounded the three like a yellow torrent.

Within the tiger demon army, there were three terrifying auras, one of which was filled with demonic energy, clearly indicating that a tiger demon with mastered linear markings was lurking within. These three auras complemented each other, forming a unified whole, seemingly the core controlling the tiger demon army; if they remained still, all would be well, but if they moved, it would be earth-shattering.

"Three demonic beasts that can rival Earth Immortals, plus countless ordinary tiger demons, breaking through will be quite troublesome now."

Mu Xiaobai swallowed hard. No matter how good she was at fighting, she couldn't possibly protect Tian Bulian and help her break through the encirclement, let alone those three tiger demons who were comparable to earth immortals, who hadn't even shown their faces yet.

Su Murong squinted and thought for a moment, then suddenly waved his hand and threw a medicine bottle at Tian Bulian: "Catch."

Tian Bulian took it and looked at it: "This is..."

"Consider this antidote as an apology for my earlier insults," Su Murong said. "I'm not naive; take it quickly so we might have a chance of breaking through."

"Okay, thank you." Tian Bulian wasn't one to be pretentious, so he immediately took the medicine and jumped down from behind Mu Xiaobai.

As the swelling gradually subsided, the spiritual energy within his body began to circulate normally. Tian Bulian closed his eyes to sense it for a moment, then opened them to look at Su Murong.

"Did you add something else?"

"Don't talk nonsense, they are all normal pills."

Roar!

A tiger's roar arose.

The yellow torrent surged forth, causing the earth to shake and demonic energy to fill the sky. Tian Bulian, not having time to settle scores with Su Murong, immediately unleashed a defensive killing move, standing at the forefront.

The tiger demon charged forward, disregarding its own life. Mu Xiaobai decisively unleashed the Heavenly Light Thunder Dragon, but unlike last time, this time the Heavenly Light Thunder Dragon was quickly suppressed by three powerful demonic energies before it could do much.

The tiger demons moved very quickly and pounced on her, but to Mu Xiaobai's surprise, they bypassed her and instead attacked Tian Bulian behind her.

It wasn't just the tiger demon horde; three streams of demonic power rose up, and tiger demons with linear markings on their foreheads, their eyes gleaming, all charged toward Tian Bulian.

Tian Bulian: "??"

"Miss Bu Lian, be careful!!"

Mu Xiaobai shouted anxiously, but the tiger demon horde separated them. Just as she was about to go to Tian Bulian's aid, she was entangled by dozens of tiger demons. Before she knew it, she was trampled over by the tiger demon horde.

Upon seeing this, Tian Bulian immediately understood what was happening. While defending and retreating, he angrily shouted at Su Murong, "What exactly did you add to your pills?"

Su Murong, trying to minimize his presence and hiding to the side, chuckled: "Star Spirit Grass."

"What the hell is that!?"

In layman's terms, it's catnip.

"Su Murong, you motherfucker!!"

Tian Bulian immediately turned and ran. Milky white flames appeared around her body, and spiritual energy erupted, instantly dispelling the fog in front of her and illuminating a path.

She ran along the road, with the tiger demons chasing after her. Su Murong chuckled, "Isn't the road now?"

She grabbed a mad tiger demon that was running wildly towards the sky, then leaped onto its back and steadied herself.

"drive!"

boom!

Mu Xiaobai, who was behind, also sprang into action. She grabbed a tiger demon, mounted it, and ran alongside it.

One hour later.

"We've gotten rid of those tiger demons."

"Yes, it was extremely dangerous."

"Yes, yes, that was close."

Mu Xiaobai and Tian Bulian paused at the same time and looked at Su Murong, who was leisurely standing beside them.

The latter shrugged and spread his hands: "Don't look at me like that. Don't tell me that the two of you have a way to break through the tiger demon horde."

Tian Bulian smiled slightly: "So you're using me as bait, is that it?"

"Don't put it so harshly. You know, I did this for... I'm sorry, I was wrong. Miss Bu Lian, you're beautiful and kind-hearted, please forgive me as if it were nothing."

Seeing that Tian Bulian had unleashed his killing move, Su Murong decisively admitted his mistake.

"I don't pity you, sister."

Mu Xiaobai grabbed Tian Bulian and whispered to her, "This formation is too special, and your strength has been greatly reduced. Now is the time to cooperate. Don't push her too far."

Su Murong is indeed a mortal, and it's true that she poses little threat to demonic beasts, but her special abilities have a significant impact on people. If Heaven were to be unkind and push Su Murong to the brink, it's hard to say who would have to bow down to whom.

"Sister Bulian, you must know, Su Murong's moves are..."

Tian Bulian narrowed his eyes slightly, and finally, persuaded by Mu Xiaobai, he withdrew his attacks, revealing a peaceful smile once again: "Fine, I forgive you."

"Heaven has no pity for you, Miss. Forgive my bluntness, but you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. Wen Shihan and Luo Benmo are nothing but rubbish!" Su Murong immediately praised.

Mu Xiaobai was speechless. She had sensed it from their first meeting when they started their collaboration: Su Murong was utterly shameless. Even the most shameless person would have some basic principles, but Su Murong…

At that time, in order to obtain information about the women around Yang Pingsheng, Su Murong did not hesitate to sell out her old employer, Wan Jin Chamber of Commerce, completely. She even shamelessly boasted that she wanted to exchange Tong Chen Guang and Tian Bu Lian for something that could control people's minds and souls, so that she could easily kidnap Yang Pingsheng. If Tian Bu Lian hadn't been without such a thing, she would have had a very high probability of actually making the exchange.

She sighed and said, "Miss Su, you are a mortal, but you are not an ordinary mortal. I hope you can follow us properly from now on and stop causing trouble. Once we escape from here, we will go our separate ways."

"Of course," Su Murong said with a grin.

Mu Xiaobai nodded and turned to discuss what to do next with Tian Bulian, but saw the latter looking serious as he gazed at the scene not far away.

They were walking on a mountain path leading to the summit, with a misty abyss beside them and a scene before them that looked like twinkling stars.

Those so-called starlight are all materialized spiritual particles. They are intertwined and move in this direction together, which is extremely beautiful, but at the same time gives people a sense of crisis that is like being pierced through the skin.

Mu Xiaobai sensed something was wrong and asked, "What is that?"

“Spiritual particle storms are a type of disaster that forms within the secret realms of heaven and earth.” Tian Bulian’s face turned deathly pale, and there was even a hint of fear in it. “And this kind of spiritual particle storm is simply beyond my imagination.”

Mu Xiaobai asked, "What do you mean?"

“Immortals rely on spiritual energy to move mountains and fill seas, and spiritual energy is composed of spiritual particles. The so-called spiritual particle storm is a kind of strange energy born from the secret realm of heaven and earth. Wherever this energy goes, it will disrupt the spiritual particles. In the spiritual particle storm, it is difficult for immortals to control spiritual energy, and there is even a risk of backlash.” Tian Bulian gasped and said, “And the spiritual particle storm not far from us is not only extremely large, but most importantly, it contains traces of the Great Dao.”

"What!?" Mu Xiaobai's expression changed drastically. "Aren't the Great Dao Marks only condensable by True Immortals? Why would they exist in such a naturally formed disaster?"

“You haven’t reached the True Immortal level, so naturally you don’t understand the many mysteries of the Great Dao Mark.” Tian Bulian shook his head and said, “The essence of the Great Dao Mark is the trace of the Great Dao barely showing itself in reality. The so-called condensation, to put it bluntly, is to barely make the Great Dao show itself in a form that people can understand. As long as it can be perceived, seen, and affected, it can be considered a successful manifestation. True Immortals can condense it, so natural disasters can naturally be formed as well.”

"I can't believe such a thing exists..." Mu Xiaobai was stunned, somewhat at a loss.

Tens of thousands of spirit particles are being drawn together by a peculiar energy and are rushing towards us.

Like a typhoon, it swept through the air, causing the spiritual particles there to entangle and move forward. As a result, it doubled in size in just a few breaths.

The Spirit Storm is a special calamity within the secret realm of heaven and earth. Tian Bulian guessed that their encounter here might be because they had reached the key point of the array formed by the secret realm.

In other words, they should be close to the center of the formation.

“But this is the first time I’ve ever seen a spiritual storm that can create a trace of the Great Dao.” Tian Bulian’s face was quite grim. “Don’t even mention that I can only exert the strength of an Earth Immortal right now. Even a True Immortal would probably perish here if things went wrong.”

The spiritual storm covered a vast area and moved at great speed, almost completely obscuring the road ahead.

Behind them, a thick fog had already rolled in. Tianbulan and the others could, of course, return the way they came, but that would likely lead them to encounter other monsters.
