Chapter 105 Information Bias
Xia Zhongnan did not hide anything from him and answered, "My name is Linghu Chong, and I come from a sect called 'Wentian Fairy Palace'. This is the Spirit Beast Garden in the Fairy Palace."
Upon hearing this, Pang Youkai exclaimed, "So you are Fellow Daoist Linghu. The outside world has spread the name of Wentian Fairy Palace and Fellow Daoist Linghu. I didn't expect to meet you in the ruins of this fairy palace today. It can be said to be a wonderful fate."
Xia Zhongnan couldn't help but laugh in his heart. He didn't expect that the Wentian Palace where he was and his alias Linghu Chong would spread to the outside world in just a few months. Even people who met him by chance in this ruins had heard of them.
He then said, "Fellow Daoist Pang, please tell me what happened to you in the Immortal Palace. I want to know the current situation of the Immortal Palace ruins."
Pang Youkai nodded and said, "Now that the remains of the Immortal Palace have reappeared in the world, everyone knows about it. Cultivation forces from all sides are rushing to Fengqi Mountain. I originally thought that since I was closest to Fengqi Mountain, I would be able to get there first, but who knew that there were already masters ahead of me.
When I entered this place through the teleportation array, I saw a cultivator in the Returning Void Realm slaughtering several cultivators in the Transformation Spirit Realm. Seeing those cultivators in the Transformation Spirit Realm fall one by one at the hands of the Returning Void Realm cultivator, I was terrified and hurriedly fled into the mist..."
This piece of fog was obviously a well-laid formation to trap immortals. From the moment I entered it, I realized the mystery of this formation. No matter how long I walked, I could not escape the traction of the formation and return to the initial entrance. However, when I was exploring the periphery, I happened to meet a cultivator in the Return to Void Stage. Fortunately, I was very vigilant and fled as soon as I saw him from a distance. Finally, under his pursuit, I was lucky enough to escape into the fog and avoid his edge.
"It's just a chance, otherwise I'm afraid I won't see Fellow Daoist Linghu again." Xia Zhongnan frowned upon hearing this. Yan Xiaoying's previous intelligence said that there was a large formation suppressing this immortal mansion, and only cultivators in the Spiritualization Stage could enter and exit safely. How could he have expected that a person in the Return to Void Stage would appear?
Frustrated with no solution, Xia Zhongnan turned to Pang Youkai and asked, "Fellow Daoist Pang, did you notice anything unusual in the area you were teleported in?"
Pang Youkai replied: "That area is most likely the remains of an ancient battlefield, and it is filled with the atmosphere left by the fierce battles of high-level monks..." After a pause, he added hesitantly: "But in my opinion, the place is also somewhat similar to a large training camp. After all, I come from the army, and I am very sensitive to the traces of such military facilities. There are indeed many signs of military training there. But if the army there is not ordinary, but an elite division composed of many high-level monks, it would be incredible!"
When mentioning this, Pang Youkai couldn't help but shake his head and sighed: "Imagine that every soldier can reach the state of returning to emptiness or even the state of unity with the Tao, what kind of invincible army would that be! I can't even imagine it!"
Xia Zhongnan fell into deep thought after hearing this. Since this place is in the Immortal Palace, why can't it be possible? I think the owner of the Immortal Palace left, maybe he went to a more advanced battlefield and has not returned yet.
He then asked Pang Youkai: "Then what happened when you stepped into the fog again?"
Pang Youkai replied: "I stepped into the fog for the second time, and I clearly felt the sudden change in the atmosphere around me, as if there were invisible enemies ready to attack me at any time. Sure enough, not long after, someone attacked me, and I could only fight and retreat until I came here."
Xia Zhongnan thought to himself: "It turns out that this 'Ten Directions Blood Evil Formation' was not activated at the beginning. In other words, it was not caused by Yan Xiaoying's Heavenly Array Breaking Talisman. But why did it activate on its own later?"
The ancient legend about the "Ten Directions Blood Evil Formation" emerged in his mind. This formation was originally extremely rare, except for the simplified version he had arranged outside Feiyue Gorge, and the battle that destroyed the State of Jiang, when the King of Jiang took the initiative to use the Ten Directions Blood Evil Formation to turn the entire capital into a Shura Purgatory, and sent millions of troops to the underworld.
Now, the Immortal Lord is not in this Immortal Palace, but he left behind this long-hidden Ten Directions Blood Evil Formation, which was suddenly activated when an outsider broke into the Immortal Palace. His intention is obvious!
Xia Zhongnan felt a chill in his heart at this moment. The magic of the immortals was indeed terrifying. This move was clearly intended to catch all those who invaded the immortal palace in one fell swoop!
At this moment, there was a commotion outside. Xia Zhongnan pushed the strange beast beside him away and looked outside. He saw a Qiongqi spreading its wings and rushing down. He shouted loudly: "Something is wrong! A human cultivator appeared in the strange beast garden, trying to capture the white tiger as a mount. The white tiger has fled to the Xuanwu Valley and is resisting together with the Xuanwu, Kuiniu and Suzaku beasts. Hurry up and go forward together to eliminate this human lunatic!"
When Xia Zhongnan heard this, a hint of disdain appeared on his lips. How dare this person reveal his intention to destroy the human race in his words?
The situation was critical at the moment. Xia Zhongnan shouted from a high place: "The Shura Realm is in turmoil. All fellow Taoists should go to the front line. Anyone who has achieved immortality should bring a partner and rush to the Xuanwu Secret Realm to help! Qiongqi, come and lend me a hand!"
Upon hearing this, Qiongqi frowned slightly, glanced at Xia Zhongnan, and retorted: "You want me to give you a ride? That's too naive!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words were uttered, dozens of monsters including Qinglong, Huanglin, Bashe, and Bixie scolded him in unison.
Qiongqi was dumbfounded, shocked at the strong cohesion Xia Zhongnan showed among this group of monsters. His own strength was inferior to Xia Zhongnan, and at this moment he was even more unable to resist.
Xia Zhongnan once again gave the order in a deep voice: "Qiongqi, why don't you come forward?"
Under the gazes of many monsters, Qiongqi could only come to Xia Zhongnan's side in disappointment. The monsters surrounding him consciously made way for him to approach.
Xia Zhongnan leaped onto the broad back of Qiongqi and said loudly: "Let's set off, our destination is the Xuanwu Secret Realm!"
Qiongqi flapped its wings and flew high, carrying Xia Zhongnan into the air and heading straight for the Xuanwu Secret Realm. Other flying monsters followed closely behind, each with a companion; those who could not fly were running fast on the ground, and a huge army of monsters set off.
Xia Zhongnan recalled that Tu Shan Fang'er had said that she wanted to subdue Qiongqi as a mount. Now that it had come true, he could not help but feel ambitious. A few years ago, when he was a mortal and was forced to hide in a narrow mine to escape the mercenaries, how could he have predicted that he would experience such an extraordinary scene today?
As long as he has firm faith and keeps moving forward, he firmly believes that he will be able to stand at the top of this world, and even the entire universe! One day, he will break through the void, find the time and space passage leading to his homeland, and meet the unforgettable family bond again.
At this time, in the Xuanwu Secret Realm, a cultivator in the Huanxu period who was fighting against several monsters including the White Tiger, Xuanwu, Suzaku, and Kuiniu keenly felt the abnormal fluctuation of the aura. Looking up, he saw a large army of monsters rolling in from afar, which made him feel a chill and cold sweat on his back.
