In no time, not a sound could be heard in the crowd. The one hundred or so disciples of the Immortals' League there felt puzzled. "When did the Chief come back?" But no one dared to ask the question out loud. They did not even dare to whisper.
The crowd watched the Chief walking onto the high platform. He cast a glance at the crowd below, coughed a few times, and said, "I have heard about the thing that happened recently. About that, the Immortals' League will explain to all of you. Thus, please trust the Immortals' League as firmly as ever. Never take advantage of the disorder to start a rumor, because it may cause a panic. The Immortals' League will punish those people who disobey the order."
His voice sounded a little bit low, as if he had been severely hurt or had some disease. Many of the older generation had seen the Chief of the Immortal's League before. But in the last 20years, he had never appeared. So why would he come here today?
Under everyone's watchful eyes, First Elder Guyang summoned the Immortals' League's fastest Flying-cloud Stone from the clouds and handed Xiaoyue some of Situ Bei's Carnage Destruction Pills and Heaven List Protective Pills. The group headed to the Abyss of Devil's Aura this time was made up of mostly elite youngsters from the five continents. The older ones must stay behind to prevent the possible ambush of the Devils' sects and deal with what would come next. In the public square, Murong Xian'er refused to let go of Xiao Chen's sleeve. Luo Shangyan walked over to them and whispered into his ear, "Junior Brother Xiao, you must watch out for Xiaoyue and Ling Fei of the Ling family." Xiao Chen nodded. He then caressed Murong Xian'er's forehead and said softly, "Relax. I won't be gone for long this time. Stay with Perfected Immortal Qing Chen and Senior Zi Mo and don't go anywhere." That said, he leaned on his tiptoe and flew toward the Flying
The Three Friends of Winter and the City Master, Ye Lingfeng, soon welcomed the group of youngsters. The eyes of the Three Friends of Winter were brimming with tears of excitement. "Hero Xiao, you're finally here! We thought you were..." Xiao Chen immediately saluted them with a smile. "Senior Plum, Senior Bamboo, Senior Pine." Seeing as he had given them his promise, he would have spared some time and men to check on their situation even if the Immortals' League didn't send him. "Very well, very well! Friends who have traveled a long distance, please come in!" Elder Plum remained emotional. Zhiluan jumped from Ziyun'er's embrace and landed in front of him. "Is the fish ready? You can't cheat me by saying things like water that is too clean holds no fish!" "There's fish! There's fish! Of course, there's fish! Behind them, Ziyun'er and Xiao Chen exchanged looks and burst into laughter. Everyone then entered the manor. Xiao Chen
Qingluan and Ziyun'er ran in from the outside as soon as they heard the commotion inside the courtyard. When they saw what happened, Ziyun'er hastily propped Xiao Chen up while Qingluan transferred energy to him. Those inflicted with the Heartless Curse must not become romantically involved. Revisiting old haunts would just worsen the effects of the curse. Practitioners of the Heartless Mystic Skill suffered the same fate. It wasn't until the darkness of the night engulfed the courtyard that Xiao Chen's condition finally improved. With cold sweat trailing down his face, he said softly, "I'm fine now..." Zhiluan was still pacing back and forth in the courtyard. "You're going to die, going to die. Kid, your curse is worsening. If you don't remove the curse soon, it'll end you one day." Xiao Chen frowned. Huashang was the only one in the world capable of removing this curse. But he knew that old woman's temper and he also knew that he wasn't st
"Kid, didn't I tell you to stay away from this place? Why are you here again?!" Suddenly, a woman's voice rang inside Xiao Chen's mind. Su Xiaomei was awake. Xiao Chen imbued the Frigid Jade Pendant with his Divine Sense. "You're up, Senior Su? Do you know what's underneath?" He wasn't sure if there was something sinister lurking underneath. If there was, the group—all eighteen of them—must not go down there. Su Xiaomei replied, "I have no idea, but this is an exceptionally frightening place. For some reason, I'm terrified. I-It's like... I'm going to be sucked in. The Qi here doesn't belong to the human world. No, I'm scared, I'm going to seal myself..." The tremor in her voice worsened as she reached the tail of her sentence. She didn't wake even when Xiao Chen called her name three times. What was it that frightened her so? Since the first day he met her, he had never seen her this uneasy. Sighing to himself, X
"This is bad! Everyone, get into formation!" Of the countless Nether Spirits that came surging forth out of nowhere, many were vicious-looking evil spirits with half a skull, eyeballs hanging from their sockets, and putrefied skin. Qingyu and Liu Feiyan turned pale from fright. Their home was Qingxuan Sect, so how could they have ever seen such terrifying things? In just seconds, thousands upon thousands of Nether Spirits had all of them surrounded. The wailing of the spirits never stopped, causing their scalps to feel numb. The group held tight onto their Immortal's Swords and magic treasures but no one dared to make a reckless attack. The army of Nether Spirits had undergone hundreds and thousands of years of tempering in a place with abundant dark energy. They were incomparable to ordinary Nether Spirits. The consequence of angering them was unimaginable. "What do we do now?!" The group stood close together wit
"M-Meow! Don't scare me!" Everyone produced orbs of light to illuminate their surroundings. What greeted them were numerous deep lakes of maroon-colored water. Next to every lake was a large locust tree, some of which had their roots protruding from the ground and winding around the lake like veins and arteries. The roots were so tightly wounded that they were a horrifying sight from afar. Qingyu and Liu Feiyan turned pale from fright. "H-How could there be so many locust trees and pools of blood? Is that human blood inside..." "L-Locust trees..." Zhiluan was so frightened that he fell, sitting on the ground. In a trembling voice, he said, "Locust trees gather dark energy and easily attract evil spirits. That's why most people wouldn't plant a locust tree in their yards. Legend has it that under every locust tree is a mass grave of people who have died tragically and then turned into vengeful ghosts. Every year at this time, they would find
"Who is it? Who dares to disturb this General's eternal rest?" Suddenly, a dignified voice emerged from the pitch-black darkness. It came as unexpectedly as a sudden clap of thunder, causing everyone's hearts to jump and their attacks to slow a fair deal. They all turned to look in the direction of the voice. "Ta... ta... ta..." The sound of hooves emerged from the boundless darkness, gradually creeping closer and getting louder. It almost felt as if the ground was quaking alongside it. Everyone was instantly on guard when they sensed a wave of Devil Qi surging forth. Out of the blue, they saw a tall specter stepping out of the darkness. The specter was almost seven meters tall and had orbs of light for eyes that were particularly striking at night. He wore a red armor with rolling dark Qi seeping out of the crevices. In his hand was a crescent saber that was nearly ten meters long. He rode a black demonic horse, making him loo
"The General of Soul?" Even someone like Xiao Chen who was knowledgeable had never heard of the General of Soul. But as the Chinese idiom said, "It is a blessing that it is not a curse, if it is a curse you can't run." Guifeng was so powerful that it was comparable to a master in Nirvana Realm. To him, it was a blessing and not a curse. Bai Yushu nodded and smiled. "The General of Soul could be the soul of the deceased, the demon spirits of the elves, the soul of the ancient beast and even the ancient gods. If the General of Soul is strong enough, it can even be merged with its master. Brother Xiao, this General of Soul should be in the first category, presumably, this General Guifeng was a Huben general when he was alive." The rest did not know much about the General of Soul. But they were all relieved that they made it out alive. Only Ling Fei was seen gloomy, gnashing in hatred. His cultivation was damaged and even his family Immortal's S
