In the ancient city at the center of the Shura battlefield.
This ancient city had long since been utterly ruined, and only dilapidated walls remained. However, a mysterious force still remained within the ancient city, and it intimidated all the undead on the battlefield.
The Shura Tribe, the Yaksha Tribe, and other beasts all stopped chasing after the cultivators. They wandered around for a while and then left.
In the ancient city.
The teams managed to shake off the pursuit of the undead creatures with great difficulty. After rushing into the ancient city, they didn't continue forward. They rested around the city gate, adjusting their breathing.
Some of them were heavily injured, some of them were greatly exhausted, and some of them had terrified expressions. They seemed to have suffered a great shock.
The Murderous Qi not only had a strange sealing power, but it could also invade the body of a cultivator and affect their Taoist Heart.
If they didn't recover from their injuries and calm down, they would be invaded by the Murderous Qi and lose their minds.
In two days, the difference between the cultivators was obvious.
Only the top ten cultivators on the Heaven Roll weren't affected by the Murderous Qi.
Even though they had consumed quite a bit of energy, they were able to recover quickly by simply eating some spirit pills and not having to focus on regulating their breathing.
"Xie Qingcheng hasn't arrived yet."
Xie Tianhuang's expression was relaxed as she chuckled. "Could it be that he has already left the Asura Battlefield?"
Yue Hai said, "There were only a dozen people in his group. It's hard for them to break through the dead souls."
"He has escaped yet again!"
The First Executioner, Song Ce, had a cold look in his eyes. His tone revealed a trace of regret as he said, "If I had known earlier, I would have killed him in the Flaming Sun Palace.
"What a pity."
Zong Feiyu curled his lips.
At the same time.
Under Su Zimo's lead, Xie Qingcheng's group finally arrived at the ancient city after many twists and turns, escaping the crisis.
Everyone looked at each other with joy on their faces as they heaved a sigh of relief.
After entering the ancient city, they didn't have to live in fear all the time.
"There weren't many awakened dead souls in the Shura battlefield. We met one or two along the way and killed them easily."
"Yes, as long as Cultivator Su warned us, we'll be prepared. There's nothing to be afraid of."
"That's right. We were a little careless at the beginning. It was only when we saw with our own eyes that we were frightened."
Celestial Immortal Yue Ying said, "To tell you the truth, the Shura battlefield isn't as cruel as people make it out to be. If we didn't take those detours, we should be able to reach the ancient city much sooner."
"Maybe the other teams have already entered the city."
As they spoke, Xie Qingcheng and the others entered the ancient city.
When Celestial Immortal Yue Ying saw the messy footsteps at the city gates, she shook her head and said, "I was right. We took too many detours. The other Princesses have already arrived here before us."
Su Zimo looked indifferent and did not say a word.
Just as Celestial Immortal Yue Ying was speaking, the group had already entered the ancient city. They saw a group of cultivators recuperating near the city gates.
When the cultivators noticed the commotion, they all opened their eyes and looked over.
Both sides stared at each other, dumbfounded on the spot!
The city gate fell into a long period of silence. Not a single sound could be heard.
"How is this possible?"
The Dukes and many cultivators were shocked as their eyes widened. Their hearts were in turmoil as they revealed looks of disbelief.
Xie Qingcheng and the others had made it here alive!
What was even more amazing was that they were only missing a single person.
Furthermore, the remaining 17 cultivators, including Xie Qingcheng, were all dressed neatly without any bloodstains on their bodies. Their auras were stable and their faces were rosy.
None of them looked like they had gone through countless life and death battles to reach this place.
When Xie Qingcheng, Celestial Immortal Yue Ying and the others saw the formation before them, they were shocked.
They did not look like a team of Heaven Immortals at all.
The group of people were scattered all over the place, either sitting or lying on the ground in low spirits. At first glance, they looked like a group of injured and wretched refugees!
What was even more frightening was that the Heaven Immortal experts under the Dukes had suffered heavy losses and their numbers were reduced by half.
For example, the Dukes of Star Flame's team had lost even more Heaven Immortals. Right now, the Dukes of Star Flame's team did not even have as many Heaven Immortals as them!
"What … did they go through?"
"Did we miss out on something?"
Countless questions flashed through the minds of Celestial Immortal Yue Ying and the others.
Su Zimo was not surprised by this scene.
He turned to look at Celestial Immortal Yue Ying and patted her on the shoulder, saying earnestly, "Judging from your tone earlier on, you must be complaining that I took a detour. If you're interested, why don't you take a look around yourself?"
Celestial Immortal Yue Ying shuddered and shook her head hurriedly, smiling awkwardly. "N-No, I'm not interested."
No matter how slow everyone was to react, they gradually understood by now.
If not for Su Zimo leading the way, what they had experienced would not have been as simple as earlier on!
Looking at the wretched state of the cultivators, everyone had no doubt that they would not even be able to see the shadow of the ancient city if they were to proceed normally!
Xie Qingcheng did not say much and looked at Su Zimo gratefully.
When they saw Su Zimo and the others appear, Zong Feiyu, Song Ce, and the other experts who were predicted to be in the top 10 of the Heaven Ranking were different from the other cultivators.
Immediately after, a look of joy flashed through their eyes.
It was the joy of regaining what they had lost!
However, none of them attacked immediately.
Since Su Zimo had already entered the city, there was no need to rush.
Moreover, it was obvious that there was more than one person who was interested in Su Zimo. Among themselves, they had some reservations and had to find a suitable opportunity!
Su Zimo did not look at Zong Feiyu and the others, but he could still sense the hidden hostility from them.
He was unmoved. What was to come would come eventually!
"Let's take a look inside the ancient city."
Su Zimo suggested.
Their group was different from the other Celestial Immortals. They were not injured and did not need to rush to rest and recuperate.
Everyone was already convinced by Su Zimo. Even Celestial Immortal Yue Ying did not object and immediately nodded in agreement.
Under the complicated gazes of the other cultivators, Xie Qingcheng and the other cultivators entered the depths of the ancient city and disappeared.
"Brother Su, you seem to have something on your mind along the way."
Xie Qingcheng noticed that Su Zimo would often look pensive when he entered the battlefield in Shura. No one knew what he was thinking.
Su Zimo did not answer immediately.
Along the way, apart from using his spirit sense to lead everyone to avoid danger in advance, he also secretly used a few mystic arts.
After a few attempts, he found something strange.
This murderous aura could indeed seal the Six Fangs Divine Power. Even his Roc wings would be sealed and could not be used.
However, during this period, he tried to use the Nine True Dragon Flashes, One Heavenly True Water, and Nanming Primordial Fire on the three Hell Suppressing Cauldrons, but they were not sealed.
Logically speaking, these three mystic arts were also related to Demonic Beasts.
However, the murderous aura did not have much of a reaction to them.
What made Su Zimo feel even weirder was that under the influence of the murderous aura, his initial discomfort gradually disappeared!
Not only that, the murderous aura seemed to be nourishing his flesh and blood!
