His gaze was as sharp as a knife as he looked into the distance, as if he wanted to pierce through the darkness.
The Empyrean Fairy's brows furrowed. She had already heard the movement. Although the other party's voice was very soft, it still did not escape her ears.
When the others saw this movement, they all jumped in fright and quickly turned their heads to look into the darkness. However, their strength was far from the Empyrean Fairy's, so they did not discover anything strange.
"What's wrong?" Fang Shishi asked.
The Empyrean Fairy said in a deep voice, "Someone's coming."
"Could it be that stone giant again?" Yan Liuyun said in shock.
"No!" The Empyrean Fairy immediately denied and shook her head, "The other party has already entered the Gate of Heaven. The stone giant is too big, so there's no way for it to enter the Gate of Heaven."
Yan Liuyun nodded resentfully and asked suspiciously, "Then who could it be? Could it be those people who died in the Sea of Death? "
No one answered because they were also not sure. They all looked at the Empyrean Fairy, who was also hesitant.
"Humph, who is it? Won't we know after testing it out?" Feng Siniang was in a hurry. In order to ensure her daughter's safety, she rushed out without a care for her own safety. She was determined to investigate the situation.
She was like a whirlwind as she rushed into the darkness. A light suddenly appeared, and with a cry of alarm, a person flew out from the darkness.
This scene attracted everyone's attention, especially the person who flew out.
"Feng Siniang." Ye Tianlei cried out in alarm. He jumped up like a cannonball and caught Feng Siniang.
In just one exchange, Feng Siniang was actually defeated. She flew back with a pale face. It was obvious that she had suffered a loss in the dark.
The others stared in front of them in shock. It was so dangerous in the dark. Feng Siniang was not a match for it. One had to know that Feng Siniang was someone who had barely touched the edge of the Grandmaster realm.
Ever since their fates had been tied together with Tang Zheng's, Tang Zheng had spared no effort in helping them on their path of cultivation, causing their cultivation to soar, far surpassing their normal cultivation speed.
Ye Tianlei was slightly weaker than Feng Siniang, so when he saw that she was not on the same level as him, he immediately understood the danger. But when he saw his wife's pale face, he felt like he was about to spit out a mouthful of anger.
Feng Siniang saw through his thoughts and quickly grabbed his sleeve. She advised, "Don't, we have to protect this door and not let the bad guys take half a step into the minefield. This is the most important thing."
Ye Tianlei felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head. He immediately calmed down. Unwilling to accept this, he glared fiercely at the darkness.
"You're saying that there really are people in the dark?" Empyrean Fairy did not act blindly without thinking. The enemy's situation was unclear. For the sake of the big picture, it was better to clarify things first.
Feng Siniang said weakly, "Yes, and it's a martial artist!"
No one doubted her judgment. This was information that she had almost exchanged with her life, so it could not be false.
"Martial artist?" Empyrean Fairy raised her eyebrows. "How could there be a martial artist in this place?"
The Gate of Heaven was so mysterious that it was impossible for outsiders to find it. How could it be like a tail, following them here?
The others' expressions also became serious. Good people did not come, and those who came had ill intentions. The other party deliberately hid in the dark, so there must be a conspiracy.
"Did you predict this?" Empyrean Fairy asked Yan Qingyi curiously.
Yan Qingyi shook her head blankly. "No, I only predicted the scene in the painting."
"I'll go check it out." Fang Shishi volunteered.
"Don't!" Ye Tianlei and his wife stopped her at the same time.
Everyone knew how important Fang Shishi was to Tang Zheng. Naturally, they would not let her take the risk. If something happened to her, then Tang Zheng would go crazy.
Empyrean Fairy stepped forward and said, "I'll meet them and see who they are."
She could already confirm that the people who came were not from this island, but guests from the outside world who had just arrived. She knew a thing or two about the various powers in this world. Maybe the people in front of her were old acquaintances.
"Go!"
The Empyrean Fairy pointed her finger and a beam of light shot out from her hand. The Painting of Mountains and Rivers of the Gods of Earth and Vale was suspended in mid-air. It shone brightly like a ball of light, dispelling the darkness and gradually revealing everything.
Empyrean Fairy followed like a shadow and flew into the darkness with the Mountain River Map.
The darkness could not cover her eyes. On the contrary, it made her eyes sharper and her mind more focused, not letting go of any clues.
Suddenly, a scene appeared in her mind. There was a person in the darkness not far from her. She did not need to look at him at all as this person appeared clearly in her mind.
Without any explanation, she moved her mind and a tornado flew out from the Mountain River Map and enveloped this person.
Before the other party could make a sound, he was sent flying into the sky and hit the dome hard. With a thud, his head drooped and he fell limply to the ground, no longer breathing.
In a few moves, she had eliminated an enemy.
She did not let her guard down because she knew that the danger was not over yet. Instead, there was an even greater danger lurking in the darkness.
The person who came was indeed a martial artist. At least, the person she eliminated was a martial artist. Moreover, his cultivation was not low at all. He was in the Grandmaster Realm. In the past, the Grandmaster Realm was the peak of cultivation in this world. But now, everything had changed. Grandmasters were gradually becoming more common.
This was the change brought about by the advancement to a great world. Not only did it benefit cultivators, but even martial artists also benefited.
Of course, it was a fool's dream for ordinary martial artists to advance to the Grandmaster Realm. From this point of view, the enemy's vanguard was a Grandmaster martial artist, so the enemy hiding behind was more powerful.
However, Empyrean Fairy was not afraid. Instead, she was somewhat angry.
The Divine Gate was a gift left for her by the Emperor Of Heaven, but it was trampled by these ungrateful people with evil intentions. This was a great disrespect. How could she just let it be?
She walked step by step into the darkness with a frosty expression.
Suddenly, two attacks came silently from the darkness.
She did not blink or even turn her head. She pointed her finger lightly and two forces passed through the darkness. Puff, puff. Two flowers of blood bloomed in the darkness. Two people fell to the ground.
Empyrean Fairy did not show mercy. These people were sneaking around. They were enemies and not friends. She had never shown mercy to her enemies.
One person in the darkness did not react. No one even whispered to each other. This was a team with strict organization and discipline. It made people shudder.
"Humph, if you don't show yourself, I'll kill all of you. Let's see how long you can hide." Empyrean Fairy snorted angrily.
Suddenly, another person appeared in the darkness. He clearly "appeared" in her mind. She was about to do the same thing, but when she was about to get close to him, he disappeared.
How could a person disappear?
Moreover, he was within the range of her perception. This was too abnormal.
She immediately realized that something was wrong. She was on full alert. The Mountain River Map flew down and tried to strengthen her defense.
However, all of this had already happened. A hand silently appeared behind her and slapped towards her back. The fingers of the hand were slender and well-trimmed, like a woman's hand. They were sparkling and shiny.
The Empyrean Fairy's hair stood on end. Even her hair was about to stand up. She didn't even turn around. Instead, she slapped her palms back from below her ribs at a very strange angle.
Bang, bang!
There were two muffled sounds. Both of them stepped back at the same time.
A strong force came from her palms and passed to every cell and every meridian. She clearly felt the shock of the power.
Her pupils shrank slightly. She twisted her neck, trying to find the enemy in the darkness.
However, the enemy seemed to be one with the darkness. Even her perception was ineffective.
She frowned in dissatisfaction and muttered to herself, "Are you playing hide-and-seek with me? This is the Heavenly Gate, my territory. You've chosen the wrong place! "
She could no longer hide the anger in her words. Her long hair and clothes fluttered in the absence of wind. She slowly rose into the air. The Mountain River Map cast a ray of light and enveloped her.
In the darkness, she was a ray of light. The darkness around her was quickly dispelled. More and more places were exposed to her vision.
"Mountain River Map, shine on the earth." She gently opened her mouth and a clear voice like a sweet spring burst out. It resounded through Divine Gate and spread to every corner.
Fang Shishi and the others watched this scene without blinking. The various methods displayed by the Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens could be said to be miraculous, causing people to yearn for and admire her.
Whoosh!
A ray of light bloomed from the Mountain River Map. In an instant, the Mountain River Map was like a scorching sun, shining on the earth and illuminating every corner. There was nowhere to hide.
The Nine Heavens Maiden looked down at everything from above. Not a single clue could escape her Fiery Golden Eyes.
Her expression changed as she looked at the enemy who had exposed themselves in surprise.
The others also widened their eyes and looked at the group of uninvited guests in surprise.
There were twenty to thirty enemies. Each of them was vigorous and imposing. One could feel the powerful aura coming from them just by looking at them.
These people were wearing masks. Their faces could not be seen clearly. They were silent, but they gave off a strange oppressive feeling. It was hard to breathe.
"Who are these people?" Fang Shishi asked in surprise. She had never seen these people before, especially so many martial arts experts. They were like bamboo shoots after a rain, suddenly emerging from the soil.
The others shook their heads, especially Yan Liuyun and Yan Qingyi. They were descendants of aristocratic families and knew a lot of inside information. They understood what these martial arts experts meant.
In the past, if a family had one or two of these experts, they would be able to stand tall. But now, there were dozens of them. Could it be that martial arts experts could be mass-produced?
No one knew the answer. Seeing the details in the darkness, they were full of questions.
Empyrean Fairy could see more clearly. These dozens of people were at least martial arts masters. This made her daydream and even more puzzled. In today's world, it was very difficult to cultivate so many martial arts masters. Although she was not a martial artist, she knew a thing or two.
