Chapter 333 - The Terrifying Old Man
Chapter 333: The Terrifying Old Man
Of course they knew about the dangers of doing this.
But there was nothing they could do. The large region they were in was chaotic.
Resources were scarce to begin with.
If they wanted to continue further, they had to have resources.
The stronger they were, the higher their status would be in the Sect, and the more resources they would have.
Hence, many people risked their lives for these rewards.
After all, cultivation was something that defied the heavens.
Xuan Yi blended in.
These thousands of disciples were all used to scout the way.
Every time they found a new ruin or passage, they needed the disciples to go in and take a look.
The elders would then provide solutions based on the reaction of the restriction.
Of course, not all of them would die.
There were also some lucky disciples who could run out.
At this time, if he told them what he saw inside, he would be rewarded by the elders.
As for the so-called reward, it was just a grade three spirit pill.
The kind of heartfelt gratitude shown by the disciples made Xuan Yi shudder.
He had really never seen someone be so grateful for a grade three spirit pill.
This was beyond Xuan Yi’s imagination.
In order to hide his identity, Xuan Yi deliberately lagged behind others.
To avoid being assigned to explore.
It would be easy to expose Xuan Yi’s strength.
Soon, a burst of exclamations came from the front, a new secret passage was discovered.
This time, the number of people who came back alive was probably the most.
The remaining disciples were also excited for their turn, wanting to further investigate the situation inside.
At this moment, a strange light suddenly appeared.
The pressure came, and a white mist came. As if borrowing the power of the wind, it quickly spread out.
It enveloped all the disciples, even the elders were no exception.
Xuan Yi was at the back of the entire team. When he realized that the situation was not right, he immediately retreated.
In just a short while, the mist dissipated. However, the scene in front of them shocked the elders.
It turned out that all the disciples present had lost their lives. Only a few were still breathing.
However, they were also injured. As for Xuan Yi, he was naturally fine.
The group of elders looked around at the disciples. They really did not know what had happened.
“Who triggered the restriction?”
No one could answer him, because even they didn’t know.
Some of the elders here were only at the Sect Master Realm or the Sage Realm, far from the strength of the Heavenly King Realm.
Although they could block the invasion of the mist, they didn’t know what had happened.
The only one who knew was Xuan Yi who was on the scene.
Xuan Yi used his spiritual sense to explore the mist. At that moment, Xuan Yi discovered something different.
There was a force that was attracting Xuan Yi. Xuan Yi expanded his spiritual sense.
He discovered a small stone that was emitting light, causing the current situation.
Xuan Yi followed behind the elders and walked over. He easily picked up the stone.
Behind Xuan Yi and the others, the arrival of the golden light naturally attracted the attention of the other Sects.
“Let’s go. The Flying Star House should be there, right? They won’t take it all for themselves, will they?”
“Cut the crap. Let’s hurry up and see what’s going on. Is there a magical weapon about to be born?”
Soon, a large number of troops rushed over.
They were all somewhat surprised by the Flying Star House’s speed. After all, they had already reached such a place.
Sensing the immense pressure from the rear, Xuan Yi quickly restrained his aura and stood aside.
As expected, after a short while, dozens of important figures with terrifying auras gathered together.
They arrived in front of the weird pathway.
“What was that just now?”
The Flying Star House was the first to ask. After all, the one who discovered this place was their own elder.
There were also so many disciples who had died. As the Sect leader, it was only natural for him to want to find out what had happened.
“Reporting to the Sect leader, we… We aren’t too sure either. A disciple just discovered this place. After reporting, before we could explore it, a strange phenomenon occurred.”
The other party frowned and thought hard. He used his spiritual sense to investigate the situation here.
But he found nothing.
Xuan Yi stood far away from the group of Heavenly Kings.
He also did not expect that this chaotic region was actually so rich in resources.
Just these ten great Sects alone had so many Heavenly King Realm cultivators.
Xuan Yi tried his best to suppress his presence. He must not be noticed by them.
Otherwise, he would not be able to escape.
Fortunately, because of what happened just now, all the Heavenly Kings’ attention were focused on the pathway in front of them.
It was obvious that the restriction had been triggered.
However, nobody could make sense of it, let alone lift the restriction.
A Heavenly King who was proficient in array formations and restrictions volunteered to take a closer look.
Two hours passed while he took that “one look”.
In the end, the Heavenly King shook his head, indicating that there was nothing he could do.
This restriction was different from what they had encountered before. It was natural.
It could not be broken by brute force, and there was no record of it.
There was no way to make it ineffective.
“How about we find someone in the Emperor Realm to break the restriction?”
This suggestion was vetoed by the other Heavenly Kings.
The reason they sealed the news was to prevent the other forces from knowing what was happening here.
So that they could get a share.
But if they went to find someone in the Emperor Realm, it wouldn’t be that simple.
If the other party knew about the sudden change in the primordial battlefield…
Not just here, the entire primordial battlefield would probably undergo a power shift.
By the time, they would become the characters being hunted down by other cultivators.
No need to mention how much profit they could get, they might not even be able to keep their little lives.
“No! If those guys come, we’ll be empty-handed this time.”
“I don’t agree either. Let’s think of another way.”
Just as the Heavenly Kings were exchanging opinions, another Heavenly King arrived.
This time, Xuan Yi felt a chill for no reason.
An old man with white hair walked forward.
“Let this old man take a look.”
Xuan Yi sensed danger from this old man.
Xuan Yi had felt this feeling only from Bing Yu.
This old monster probably also had the strength of the peak of the Heavenly King Realm.
Xuan Yi was a half-step Heavenly King, and had the power to fight even against a mid-stage Heavenly King Realm cultivator.
However, for Xuan Yi to sense danger, the old mans’ strength was self-evident.
When the other party passed by Xuan Yi, he looked at Xuan Yi a few more times, as if he was interested in Xuan Yi.
After checking out the restriction, the old man turned around and said with a smile.
“I do have something that can break this restriction.”
“It’s just that the consumption is quite high, so our Star Constellations Palace needs to take more of the share. Everyone has no objections, right?”
As he spoke, an aura that caused one to tremble radiated from the old man’s body.
The Heavenly Kings hurriedly nodded their heads. They were very clear about this old man.
