Miss Demon Lord will never surrender to the Saint

Qian Lin nodded and spread his hands, saying, "We were ambushed by her. Geng Hui was accidentally injured by her and is now recovering in the main force at the back. However, Ye Qiuhan was also hit hard and his injuries are no less severe than Geng Hui's."

This record was not very good. All the magic masters present knew that Ye Qiuhan was only an early-stage grandmaster. She alone ambushed a team consisting of two mid-stage grandmasters and one early-stage grandmaster, and actually severely injured one of the mid-stage grandmasters, while she was able to escape unscathed.

But when I thought that the two masters here were from Hehuan Valley, everything made sense.

The Grand Master of Hehuan Valley, those who understand will understand.

"Don't worry, now that we have made peace, Ye Qiuhan will never dare to attack you again." The Grand Master of Xuanyin Sect said carelessly. Although the combat effectiveness of these two Grand Masters of Hehuan Valley is not very good, they are still Grand Masters after all, and they also brought the second batch of secret realm exploration team here, which is considered a good thing.

At least, it gave him a glimmer of hope, a glimmer of hope to escape from this secret realm.

Roar! ! !

A miserable tiger roar came from afar. Several people looked up and saw that the spiritual beast tiger, which had been able to hold on just now, was now covered with wounds under the siege of four magic masters. This tiger roar was its last desperate move when it was desperate.

But it was already seriously injured, so there was no chance of recovery. Under the joint suppression of two late-stage masters of the magic world, it was forced to stop its charge halfway.

Then, a huge sword with a strong bloody aura fell from the sky and pierced its head, ending its life.

A spiritual beast that had lost its ability to resist could still be easily killed by the late-stage grandmaster of the Zhantian Sect.

After completely crushing the tiger's head, the man still felt that the tiger was not dead enough, so he chopped the tiger's body into several pieces before stopping.

It's not that he has a cruel character, but there was a time before when they were attacked by a spirit beast that pretended to be dead and had extremely strong vitality. After that incident, this late-stage grandmaster developed the habit of whipping corpses.

After making sure that the spiritual beast tiger was dead, he turned his head to look to the other side. When he saw the grandmaster who had just been sent to stop the intruders coming with Qian Lin, his brows slightly frowned.

What's going on? Why did the people we sent out bring the enemy back?

"Brother! These two are the masters of the Hehuan Valley who entered the secret realm later. Brother Geng Hui is with them!"

The other masters also had the same doubts in their minds. Fortunately, the master of Zhantian Sect told these masters the whole story in advance, which made them let down their guard.

The token from the Venerable Hehuan Valley and the disciples from the Zhantian Sect who traveled along the way were enough to dispel the doubts in these people's minds.

In addition, they were also looking forward to this day, when they would be able to meet their fellow practitioners who would enter the secret realm later. This was a good thing that they had not dared to think of before.

"Great, it seems our divination results are correct."

The people from Xuanyin Sect were even more surprised, as if the arrival of Qian Lin and others gave them great confidence.

This lucky divination result turned out to be correct!

340. It’s time to end the fun

"Where on earth did the brothers and sisters go? Did they really forget that we two poor little guys haven't returned to the team yet?"

After returning to the place where she had been separated from her senior brothers and sisters, Hua Yue waited for two days with great interest, but did not see a single figure. It was as if those seniors had completely forgotten about them and left her and Huoyu here to fend for themselves.

After two days, Huayue gave up waiting. Waiting here foolishly was not a good choice. Although Huoyu's condition was not deteriorating as fast as before, it was still progressing steadily. Her intuition told her that Huoyu didn't have much time left.

When Huoyu's strength breaks through to the Grandmaster level, she will completely lose control of her own power, turn into a ball of incomparably gorgeous fireworks, and eventually disappear from this world.

Huayue didn't want to let her good friend leave like this.

Even though she didn't know how to save Huoyu yet, she felt that she couldn't stay here and she needed to move on.

At this time, Huoyu also pointed out a way for Huayue.

After nightfall of the next day, Huoyu woke up from her sleep. She told Huayue and Huaxi that she had dreamt that the entire secret realm was engulfed in flames and everyone in the secret realm was burned to ashes, with no one walking out of the secret realm alive.

If it was just a nightmare, she might not have told it to her two companions, but in her dream, the raging fire that engulfed this secret realm was exactly what she had transformed into.

It was she who lost control of her own power, causing the raging flames to destroy the secret realm and all living creatures within it.

Including Hua Yue, Ye Qiuhan, and Miss Hua Xi, who I had only known for a few days.

Everything she cherished was destroyed because of her, which was why she told the two of them about this dream.

"It's just a dream, don't take it too seriously." Huayue put her arm around Huoyu's shoulders and gently stroked his back to calm him down.

"This is not just a dream, absolutely not. It is too real, as if it is a preview of the future." Huoyu lowered his eyes and spoke in a faint voice.

She also wanted to believe that this was just a dream, but a voice in her heart told her that this was not a dream, but something that would happen in the future.

If she failed to control the raging flames in her chest, the blood-red flames would burst out and burn the entire secret realm.

Her friends will also die here.

"I felt a guidance. In that place, there was something leading me forward." She stretched out her hand and pointed in a direction. In a trance, she seemed to see a red flame rising from there.

Intuition, or it should be intuition, told her that only by going there could she have a chance of survival.

Huayue looked at the determination on Huoyu's face, then looked up at Huaxi.

Huaxi's gaze was on Huoyu's face, and she looked at Huoyu for a long time.

"What do you think? Do you want to follow your friends and embark on this dangerous and uncertain road?" Hua Xi did not give his answer immediately, but looked at Hua Yue, wanting to know what Hua Yue thought.

My thoughts? Hua Yue was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily: "She is my friend, no matter what, I can't watch her die."

She didn't know how to save Huoyu, but now Huoyu gave her a direction, so she would naturally choose to believe Huoyu.

After all, she had nothing to believe in now.

"In that case, then I have no objection. I also want to see what secrets are hidden in this secret realm." Hua Xi smiled with relief. Looking at the two girls in front of her, an idea suddenly popped up in her mind.

If her sister were still alive, she would probably be this old too...

……

"Do you feel that something has changed?" On the first night after meeting Mo Dao, Qian Lin suddenly looked up somewhere.

The many magic masters sitting around the campfire showed puzzled expressions, not knowing what Qian Lin was talking about.

Different? What's different? Isn't this secret realm still the same as before?

"I don't know how to put it, but I really feel that this secret realm has undergone some changes. I don't know what this change means, but something has definitely changed." Qian Lin scratched his hair twice in annoyance, "Have you discussed what to do next?"

Just now, these masters were discussing what to do next, and two completely different opinions emerged.

Some people planned to go to a safer place to rest, while others wanted to go directly to unexplored areas. Qian Lin naturally belonged to the latter group.

Among the other magic masters, several have already lost their fighting spirit and only want to stay in a safe place to survive. Their reasons are very realistic. There are still wounded in the team. If they encounter such a strong enemy again, the result will probably not be good.

It would be better to rest for a while in a safe place, wait for the wounded to recover, and then slowly explore forward.

But another group thinks that this is a waste of time, and time is running out.

The former faction was mainly composed of cultivators from the Xuanyin Sect, while the latter faction was mainly composed of cultivators from the Zhantian Sect. In order to increase the persuasiveness of their statement, the cultivators from the Xuanyin Sect even divined on the spot about the good and bad luck of the two options.

And the result was just as the Xuanyin Sect cultivators had expected. Staying where they were was a very auspicious sign, but going straight to explore would result in a bleak future.

This seems to be the first bad omen they predicted after entering the secret realm?

This greatly encouraged the Xuanyin Sect monks who had originally doubted the accuracy of divination. There were both good and bad results, which proved that there was no problem with divination!

“See? We should stay here and rest. We have been in the secret realm for such a long time anyway. What’s the big deal if we are a few days slower? It’s impossible for sudden changes to occur in just a few days?” The late grandmaster of Xuanyin Sect pointed at his divination results and said confidently to Qian Lin and the late grandmaster of Zhantian Sect.

Qian Lin and the late-stage grandmaster of Zhantian Sect looked at each other and saw the same idea in each other's eyes. There was no way to reason with these people from Xuanyin Sect.

With such divination results at hand, it is impossible for the people of Xuanyin Sect to be persuaded by them. If they could be persuaded, then Xuanyin Sect would no longer be the Xuanyin Sect.

For these people, the divination result is the most important thing. Even if the divination result tells them to die, they will not hesitate at all.

“Since you plan to stay here to rest, then it’s up to you.” The late-stage Grandmaster of Zhan Tian Sect let out a long sigh, “We, Zhan Tian Sect, will go explore the unknown area together with He Huan Valley.”

When these words were spoken, everyone present showed strange expressions. There was no way, it was hard to believe that one day the Zhan Tian Sect would choose to go together with the He Huan Valley.

Generally speaking, if nothing major happens, the cultivators of the Zhantian Sect and the Hehuan Valley Sect would hate each other and simply cannot get along, but now, the two sides have reached a rare consensus.

"Our divination results will not be wrong. If you act separately from us, we don't know what will happen." The late grandmaster of Xuanyin Sect was also stunned, but reacted quickly and said sternly to the late grandmaster of Zhantian Sect.

But this kind of intimidation really has no power. To the Zhantian Sect cultivators who have made up their minds, it seems that the Xuanyin Sect’s people are just going crazy again.

The five major demon sects are not close friends. They stick together only because their chances of survival are higher. In fact, there are many open and covert struggles among the five demon sects.

In the eyes of other demonic sects, the Xuanyin Sect is just a group of fools who only act according to the results of divination.

They have to consult fortune-tellers for any problems they encounter, and they will firmly believe in the results, regardless of whether the results are right or wrong.

Anyway, in the eyes of the Zhantian Sect's cultivators, it is better to believe in the sword in their hands than to believe in these things.

"I'm going to give you this sentence as it is. I think the way to survive is to keep moving forward," the late-stage Grandmaster of Zhantian Sect snorted coldly. Since they were not on the same page, he turned his head away and stopped talking to the people from Xuanyin Sect.

Seeing that the two people from the Demon Sect had already split up, Qian Lin sat aside calmly, talking to Nan Xiao in a low voice about the spiritual fire.

"You mean your perception of spiritual fire has also suddenly increased?"

"Well, it seems that from the beginning, I felt that there was something in that place attracting me over there." Nan Xiao nodded, stretched out his hand and quietly pointed in a direction.

"...Huoyu and the others seem to be approaching this direction as well. This may not be a coincidence." Qian Lin narrowed her eyes slightly. She could determine Huoyu's approximate location through the feather mark on the back of her hand.

And these days, Huoyu has been moving, and moving in the direction pointed by Nan Xiao.

Everyone’s goal should be the same.

As for why Huoyu went in this direction, Qian Lin could only make an irresponsible guess, probably because Huoyu was related to Suzaku, and Suzaku was related to Linghuo, so there was a connection between the two.

It’s the same principle as how Nan Xiao can vaguely sense the location of the spiritual fire.

Nan Xiao's relationship with this spiritual fire is not that deep. Her ancestor left this spiritual fire in this secret realm, and no one knows how many years have passed. Even in this situation, Nan Xiao can still sense the location of the spiritual fire. Then Huoyu, the girl who has a closer relationship with the spiritual fire, can also sense it. Isn't it normal?

"Then let's go in this direction. Sooner or later we will meet Huoyu and the others." Qian Lin made the decision and told Ye Qiuhan who was waiting in the distance the news.

"I have no objection, but I found something strange here..." Ye Qiuhan responded quickly, and told Qian Lin about the strange phenomenon she found, "Some spirit beasts suddenly left their territory for some unknown reason and went to one place in a mighty way."

"The spirit beast has any unusual movements? Please explain it more clearly." Qian Lin's pupils shrank. This was not good news.

"Yes, that's what happened just now. All the spirit beasts I could observe nearby left their territory at the same time and headed in one direction at the fastest speed. This is definitely not normal."

As he spoke, Ye Qiuhan also conveyed to Qian Lin what he saw.

Several powerful spirit beasts rushed out of the jungle and headed straight for a certain place, and this direction...

A map appeared in Qian Lin's mind, showing her location, Ye Qiuhan's location, and the locations of those spirit beasts. If her calculations were correct, the destinations of those spirit beasts seemed to be the same as hers.

They are probably also heading towards the spiritual fire!

"You mean, these spirit beasts received some instructions at the same time, and this instruction made these master-level spirit beasts rush to the place where the spirit fire is?" After hearing Qian Lin's conjecture, Ye Qiuhan took a breath.

What kind of power could accomplish such a thing? Even those Venerable Realm Spiritual Beasts couldn't possibly command so many Grandmaster Realm Spiritual Beasts at the same time, right?

"That's right, and I roughly guessed who is behind this." Qian Lin narrowed his eyes, and a hint of enlightenment flashed in his icy blue eyes, "I'm afraid it's our old enemy. It has already taken action."

Apart from the Way of Heaven, what other existence could possess such power?

there is none left!

Only it can do such a thing!

And the changes in this secret realm are definitely caused by it behind the scenes!

"Why didn't it just let the spirit beasts deal with us? Instead, it made the spirit beasts run away to other places?" Ye Qiuhan was puzzled.

"Perhaps he is worried that Senior Qinglong will overturn the chessboard if he attacks us like this. So letting the spirit beasts guard the spirit fire can also achieve the effect of blocking us. It also has a reason to block Senior Qinglong's mouth."

After all, at that time, it was Qian Lin and the others who went to die on their own, instead of Tiandao controlling the grandmaster-level spirit beast to defeat Qian Lin and the others.

The nature of these two things is still very different.

"But what he did is equivalent to telling me that the spiritual fire is very important. It thinks we must go there." Qian Lin breathed a sigh of relief. "The fun is almost over. Next is the real battle of life and death."

Ye Qiuhan alone saw four master-level spirit beasts rushing towards the direction of the spirit fire, and such a scene must have appeared in various places in the secret realm. By then, the number of spirit beasts gathered at the location of the spirit fire would probably be an astronomical number.

There are countless thousands and tens of thousands of them. Even if His Holiness came, he would have a headache, right?

Not to mention Qian Lin's team. Faced with such a terrifying gap in numbers, they would have no ability to resist.

"I hope we can be faster than the spirit beasts and rush in to get the spirit fire before the spirit beasts' encirclement is fully formed. This is our only chance." Qian Lin stood up suddenly and said to the late-stage grandmaster of Zhan Tian Sect who was willing to follow him, "We have to set off quickly. My intuition tells me that there is not much time left."

"All of you in the Body Tempering Realm except Nan Xiao stay here. We need to hurry on. You in the team will only slow us down."

Qian Lin said coldly as he swept his emotionless gaze over the Body Tempering Realm cultivators in the team.

341. Big Changes

This decision made everyone present feel incredible. Did Qian Lin mean to leave the others in the Body Tempering Realm here and let several masters go straight to a certain target?

Where did she get the courage to make such a decision?
