A few days later.
In a plaza in the Fantasy Quest Hall, there was a teleportation array connected to the Abyss.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! At this time, many figures appeared from the teleportation array. They were Illusion warriors who had completed their training and returned from the Abyss.
They looked excited, as if they had just survived a disaster.
"We're back. We're finally back alive."
"Isn't that right? I dare say that this trial was the most dangerous trial in history. "
"Yeah. Who would've thought that we would run into ancient demons? We were almost killed by them."
"Yeah, yeah. We were so close. If we were noticed by the ancient demons, we would've been dead."
Everyone was overjoyed. They felt that their luck was too good. They were so close to being completely annihilated. None of them would've made it back alive.
"Huh? That's strange. Where are Jacob and the other examiners? Where did they go? Why haven't they returned? "Someone noticed that Jacob and the other elders were nowhere to be seen.
"Yeah. Where did Chris and the others go? With their strength, they shouldn't have failed the trial. Where are they now?" Someone noticed that Chris and the others hadn't returned.
They thought it was strange. Out of all the participants, Chris and the others were relatively strong. Everyone else had passed the trial, so there was no way Chris and the others hadn't.
"Yeah, yeah. Before we left, I saw Chris and the others surrounding Barty. They looked like they wanted to kill him. Did Barty kill them?"
"Impossible. No matter how strong Barty is, he can't kill Chris and the others. Not to mention, Jacob and the other elders were with him. Even if Barty ascended to heaven, there's nothing he could do."
"But now that Elder Jacob hasn't returned, I'm afraid the odds are against him."
"And Barty. Barty might be dead too."
"If he's dead, then he's dead. What does that have to do with us? We've completed the mission anyway."
Everyone discussed this matter spiritedly, feeling extremely confused. Chris and the others, as well as Jacob and the other elders still hadn't returned alive. This was simply a fantasy story.
Some people even guessed that Jacob and the others had been killed by Barty, but everyone shook their heads, thinking that it was impossible. It was like a white rabbit killing a dozen tigers. No matter how they looked at it, it was ridiculous.
No one believed that Barty could kill Jacob and the others.
Boom ~ ~
At that moment, the teleportation array lit up again and a figure appeared on the square.
"Buddy, isn't that Buddy? He's not dead yet? "
Quite a few people immediately cried out in alarm. When they saw Barty appear, they all looked as if they had seen a ghost, and their faces were filled with disbelief.
They had all seen Barty's fate. He had been surrounded by Jacob and the other Elders. No matter how they looked at it, he was doomed to die. Now, he had actually come back alive. It was simply unbelievable.
If it weren't for the fact that Barty's body was emitting the aura of a living person, they would have thought that they were seeing a ghost.
At that moment, Xia Ping had finally stayed in the Abyss Continent for ten days, so he chose to return to the illusion world.
For the past few days, he had been consolidating his cultivation, familiarizing himself with his skyrocketing magic power, divine sense, and other powers, quietly waiting for the arrival of the thunder calamity.
And this time, his control over his power had become even more perfect. It was smooth and formless, not a single trace of aura leaked out. It was perfect and flawless.
"Barty!"
At that moment, three mission hall elders flew over from afar. Impressively, they had all reached the peak of the thunder calamity realm. Murderous intent filled their bodies as they descended on the square in an instant.
"Why did you come back alone? Where are Elder Jacob and the others? Where did they go? "
One of the mission hall elders immediately questioned, glaring fiercely at Xia Ping. He was someone who knew the details, so naturally, he knew the plan of Jacob and the others. Their goal was to kill Barty.
But now, Barty was not dead. Instead, Jacob and the others were missing. No matter how he thought about it, it was strange.
"How would I know? Elder Jacob is a thunder calamity realm expert. How would I dare to ask about his whereabouts? But since he hasn't returned yet, he's probably dead."
Xia Ping said lazily.
"Dead my ass!"
Another black-clothed elder shouted angrily. "Jacob and the others have three thunder calamity realm experts. Their strength is tyrannical. Even if you die eight or ten times, they won't die. Tell me, did you murder them? Did you cause them to meet with misfortune? "
He couldn't restrain his anger. He was treating Xia Ping as a murderer.
"Elder, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. You say that I murdered them. May I ask if you have any proof?" Xia Ping looked at the black-clothed elder calmly.
"This!"
The black-clothed elder was momentarily speechless. He didn't know what to say. He couldn't say that Jacob and the others had entered this trial with the goal of murdering Barty, could he?
If he said this, he would immediately be investigated by the council of elders and sentenced to death on the spot. After all, this was a violation of the clan's rule of no infighting. Even a saint would be severely punished.
This kind of thing couldn't be said. Otherwise, it would cause a huge uproar. When the time came, he would be treated as a scapegoat.
"Don't speak carelessly if you don't have proof. Spreading rumors is a felony. Moreover, you said that they can't die just because they're strong. Who made such a rule? This is the Abyss Continent. There are even Immortal Demons. Maybe they were unlucky enough to meet an Immortal Demon and ended up being eaten. After all, in this world, you can choke to death when you're unlucky. "
Xia Ping said indifferently.
"Met an Immortal Demon? That's indeed a possibility. When I was in the trial, I saw an Immortal Demon flying through the sky. Its monstrous demonic aura almost killed me. "
Hearing this, someone from the Illusion Tribe immediately cried out and recounted his experience.
"Indeed, I also met an Immortal Demon. It was truly monstrous. Earlier, it seemed to have exploded in anger and swept through the entire Abyss Continent. I don't know what it was searching for."
"Now that you mention it, I also remember. It's very likely that Jacob and the others did something that angered the Immortal Demon and were killed on the spot."
"So that's how it is. If that's the case, Jacob and the others probably touched the Immortal Demon's bad luck and were killed on the spot."
"How unlucky. If that's the case, then Jacob and the others were really unlucky."
Everyone discussed. They were very sympathetic and pitied Jacob and the others. They were so unlucky to meet an Immortal Demon and be killed on the spot.
No matter what cultivation level one had, meeting an Immortal Demon was a dead end.
In fact, this was the only reason that could explain why Jacob and the others died. After all, with Barty's cultivation and strength, he couldn't have posed any threat to Jacob and the others.
