“Run! There’s a monster!”
Following the sounds of miserable shrieks, a few more people from the Misty Illusory Manor were swallowed by that monster, while some were trampled under its sharp claws.
The spiritual power of the magic treasures flew all over the sky, but they were horrified to find that those had no effect on these monsters at all. Even if the monsters were scattered, they would gather again, and the Misty Illusory Manor people would attract the hatred of many monsters.
For a moment, the situation was extremely chaotic, and the people of the Misty Illusory Manor were also completely defeated.
Hearing the movement behind him, Ye Xuan looked at the stone in his palm and confirmed his guess.
Sure enough, this Penglai Immortal Stone was related to the secret realm, and it could even attract these monsters. This was also the reason why he had suddenly changed his mind and given the stone away so readily.
And just like that, Bai Haoyu had become his scapegoat. However, with his extraordinary cultivation, he would not die so easily. He would probably have to suffer a lot.
The truth was similar to Ye Xuan’s guess.
The monster that had been devouring Bai Haoyu suddenly burst into a golden light from its abdomen, followed by a loud explosion. It exploded into pieces, and Bai Haoyu emerged from it.
His face was disheveled and unkempt, no longer the immortal-like image he had before. Coupled with his eyes that looked like he wanted to skin Ye Xuan alive, he looked like an evil ghost that had crawled out of hell.
“That’s great. It’s good that you’re fine, Senior Brother Bai.”
The people of the Misty Illusory Manor were attacked by a group of monsters, and it could be said that they suffered heavy casualties. Even Bai Haoyu had to go through a lot of trouble before he managed to keep his life.
Disregarding how long they would have to recuperate, in the following secret realm treasure hunt, they would probably fall behind the Heaven Sect and the Dao Seeking Sect by a large margin.
At this moment, those monsters could no longer sense the aura of the Penglai Immortal Stone. They rushed forward again in the direction Ye Xuan and the others had left.
The Penglai Immortal Stone in his hand was gone. Ye Xuan must have taken it away with some secret technique. Bai Haoyu understood what was going on. He thought furiously, ‘How dare you scheme against me!’
No wonder Ye Xuan would hand over the stone so easily. Bai Haoyu was no fool, and he immediately understood what had happened. His face turned extremely dark, and even the people of the Misty Illusory Manor were a little afraid.
“Senior Brother Bai, are you alright?”
Looking at the tragic state of his fellow disciples, as well as the fact that he had been swallowed alive by some unknown creature, it was a humiliation to the proud Bai Haoyu.
What kind of strength did the Misty Illusory Manor have? And what kind of strength did Ye Xuan have? He was currently only at human rank level 4. If the news spread out, it would be a huge joke if they were schemed against to such an extent.
Bai Haoyu’s roar resounded through the sky, “Ye Xuan! I’m going to make sure you die a horrible death, or I’m not worthy of being a human!”
…
The people of the Sword Sect and the Tai Qing Sect sensed the terrifying aura coming from behind and were all confused.
Although those monsters were fast, Ye Xuan and the others were one step ahead, and with the people of the Misty Illusory Manor blocking them from behind, they had yet to catch up.
Everyone ran until they were out of breath, and only then did they slow down.
“What’s going on, Elder Ye? Why did those monsters suddenly appear?”
Seeing that Ye Xuan did not look surprised, as if he knew the origins of these monsters, and the stone that the Misty Illusory Manor had asked for, the Sword Sect people felt that there were countless connections between them.
“It’s a long story,” Ye Xuan said simply, “But I think these monsters were most likely attracted by this stone.”
Looking at the ordinary stone in Ye Xuan’s hand, although no one knew its origin, seeing how persistent the people of the Misty Illusory Manor were about it and how it could attract such a strange creature, it must have a deep history.
“That’s too dangerous. Elder Ye, you’d better quickly throw this stone away. Otherwise, it won’t be good if it attracts those things again.”
Ye Xuan hadn’t cracked the secret of the Penglai Immortal Stone yet, so it would be a pity to throw it away. He shook his head and said, “This stone must be related to the secret realm. I need to study it more.”
“As the saying goes, danger and opportunity co-exist. If you retreat because of fear and timidity, then how can you talk about cultivation?”
The people from Sword Sect agreed with his words. After all, they practiced the way of the sword and were all about moving forward. If they stopped because of difficulties, they would not be able to achieve much.
Seeing that Ye Xuan didn’t treat them as outsiders at all and directly said such an important thing, they were a little surprised.
Ye Xuan cupped his hands at them and said, “By the way, thank you for your help just now.”
The leading disciple also nodded as he replied, “You’re too polite, Elder Ye. Master once told us that if we see the Tai Qing Sect in danger, we must help.”
“Your master is Elder Mo?”
“That’s right.”
Previously, Shen Changling was still puzzled as to why a small sect like this was worthy of Mo Jianming’s attention and even needed his help. Now that he thought about it, a large part of the reason should be Ye Xuan.
“Elder Ye’s cultivation may be low, but you’re knowledgeable and have both courage and wisdom.”
Using the monster to kill Bai Haoyu was as easy as blowing off dust. Bai Haoyu probably didn’t even know how he had died.
“I think the monster will catch up with us again, we-”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Xuan heard a roar not far away, and his expression changed slightly. He said, “How did they catch up so quickly?”
Then, he said to the Sword Sect people, “Thank you for your help. This is my problem and I shouldn’t drag you down. Let’s part ways before those monsters catch up.”
The people from the Sword Sect looked at the white figures approaching menacingly and could not help but smile bitterly. Shen Changling said, “It’s too late now.”
