Chapter 182: Back to the Demon Subduing Mountain and the Demon-Seeking Compass
With a shout from the city lord of the Central Plains City, Ji Tongtian, he took the lead and the team into the teleportation formation.
Immediately, Ji Tongtian and his team turned into streaks of light and disappeared into the teleportation formation.
Among them, Xuan Lingzi of the Sword Pavilion was staring at the center of the formation with killing intent in his eyes.
At this moment, there was also an old man behind Xuan Lingzi.
The old man walked to Xuan Lingzi’s side and said indifferently, “third elder, don’t forget what our mission is at this stage.”
“Tsk!”
Hearing this, Xuan Lingzi snorted and led the team of the Sword Pavilion into the teleportation array.
However, Xuan Lingzi’s eyes were extremely cold. He had already made a plan. This time, he would not let Su Yi come back alive.
As the Sword Pavilion’s team entered the teleportation array, another beam of light shot through the sky. Immediately, the Sword Pavilion’s team disappeared from the teleportation array.
As for the remaining ten teams, the leading elders looked at each other with cold expressions. One of the elders had his hands behind his back as he slowly brought the team behind him to the teleportation array.
The eyes of this old man swept over the other groups. A cold glint flashed across the corner of his eyes as he spoke indifferently. “Everyone, let’s rely on our own abilities. I, Xu, will take the lead!”
After saying this, he led the group and stepped into the large teleportation formation.
From what this old man claimed to be, one could tell that this old man’s surname was ‘Xu’. Even though there was a ‘Xu’ name on the Heaven-seizing List.
Adding on this person’s unfathomable strength, it was obvious that this old man surnamed Xu was also a character on the Heaven-seizing List.
Moreover, the faction of this old man surnamed Xu was not in the Central Plains City, but in the northern regions of the great desolate region. Similarly, within the central sky region, there were also large factions and clans surnamed Xu.
Hearing this, the other old men also coldly snorted, as they looked at the other old men with unfriendly expressions.
They did not come here today to joke around. If that thing really came into being… What greeted them was a bloody fight.
That thing would come into being once every hundred years. Some of them had already experienced a few fights over it.
Why were they so obsessed with that thing? One had to know that that thing could be considered a rare existence even among those in the central sky region.
Following the lead of these elders, these groups disappeared from the teleportation formation one by one. They turned into a ray of light that broke through the sky.
The direction of these rays of light was very simple. They were all heading towards the Demon Subduing Mountain range.
…
Before long, a huge ray of light descended from the sky at the outer region of the Demon Subduing Mountain range. It turned into eight human figures.
These seven human figures were Ji Tongtian’s team and Su Yi.
They had just stabilized themselves after being teleported and could immediately feel an oppressive feeling surging into their hearts.
Immediately, the negative emotions in their hearts increased a lot. Ji Tongtian immediately frowned. He finally understood why the people he had sent out earlier had gone crazy.
At a glance, the entire Demon Subduing Mountain range was covered by a layer of haze-like substance. Moreover, it gave people an extremely oppressive feeling. If cultivators with weak wills stayed here for a long time, they would definitely be disturbed and turn into those madmen with bloodshot eyes.
Ji Tongtian looked around and found that among the people he brought, the one with the lowest cultivation state was already breathing rapidly.
In just a short while, he was already affected by the illusion?
Looking at the others, other than that late-stage foundation establishment cultivator who performed better, the others were more or less affected.
On the other hand, Su Yi was suppressing his emotions because he felt it. Was it disturbing his mood? It did not exist, alright? He did not have that kind of feeling at all.
Ji Tongtian saw his relaxed appearance and could not help but praise him in his heart. As expected of a fierce person who crossed the Demon Capturer Mountain range alone.
Ji Tongtian said indifferently to the cultivators who were already beginning to be affected, “you guys can’t hold on any longer. Later, find a teleportation node and go back. I don’t want to see you guys being eroded into crazy monsters.”
Hearing their city lord’s words, the cultivators from the city lord’s mansion felt ashamed. In terms of strength, they were all higher than Su Yi, but none of them were as relaxed as Su Yi.
They saw Su Yi standing at the side with his arms crossed over his chest, looking like he was watching a good show. They just waited quietly for a while, and then a stream of light came from the sky again. The rest of the teams began to slowly gather here.
Among these teams, figures appeared. Some of them had a slight change in expression, as if they had sensed the oppressive aura.
Those with profound cultivation levels were not affected in the slightest.
Seeing this, Ji Tongtian was relieved. It seemed that as long as one reached the late stage of the foundation establishment stage, they would not be too affected.
“It really is absolute! It really is a desperate situation!”
Just as they entered the outer perimeter of the Demon Subduing Mountain range, some of the elders looked at the demon capturer mountain range that was shrouded in a haze of surprise.
City Lord Ji glanced at them and ignored them. He could naturally hear what the other party was pleasantly surprised about.
At this moment, he could only focus on finding the source of this scene. Otherwise, if the Demon Subduing Mountain continued to spread, it would one day bring disaster to the great desolate.
This was his realization as a city lord, and also his responsibility as a city lord. Hence, he followed the team here.
At this moment, Ji Tongtian looked at the Demon Subduing Mountain range that was shrouded in haze from afar.
Then, he turned his head to look at Su Yi and asked calmly, “Su Yi, when you ventured into the Demon Subduing Mountain range alone, did you find any strange places in the mountain range, or rather, unusual places?”
Ji Tongtian looked at Su Yi and asked. This was also the reason why he had invited Su Yi here. Facing this huge mountain range, it was impossible for them to search aimlessly.
However, with Su Yi, who had climbed over the mountain range, being able to point out some strange points was probably faster than finding a needle in a haystack.
“City Lord Ji, you’ve declined. Why do you have to ask a kid about these things?”
Without waiting for Su Yi to speak, an old man with a yin-yang fish hanging from a jade pendant on his waist said calmly.
The old man flipped his hand and produced something that looked like a compass. On it was an eight trigram seal.
The old man said, “this magic treasure is called the demon-seeking compass. It is perfect for dealing with such a dangerous place.”
After saying this, the old man’s true essence moved slightly and he actually activated the demon-seeking compass.
The demon-seeking compass was activated by the true essence. Immediately, the shadow of the yin-yang fish appeared on the demon-seeking compass.
The shadow slowly rotated and a mysterious aura emerged from the demon-seeking compass. It seemed to be pointing in a direction as it slowly floated.
Just as everyone was looking at the old man, a voice suddenly sounded in Su Yi’s mind.
“Big bad guy, can you hear me?”
…
