"Zzzzzzzz!"
Activating the Phantom Thunder Dashing, Xing Jue's speed was pushed to the limit. He went straight to the direction indicated by the unknown domain. He was deeply afraid that if he was a bit late, Bai Ye, Lu Yuan, and the others would be the first to get the inheritance he wanted first.
"Ahhh!"
However, he hadn't run very far when a series of screams came from in front of Xing Jue. When he got closer, Xing Jue couldn't see anything, but the screams were right beside his ears.
After examining the execution with his soul, he discovered that it was actually a barrier mechanism. Someone was trapped inside the barrier mechanism, and the barrier mechanism was very powerful, because the person trapped inside was an Asura Martial Exalted expert.
"Help, help, is there anyone here? I beg you, save us."
Xing Jue originally wanted to leave, but after hearing those heartfelt pleas, his heart softened. Thinking that this kind of barrier would be as easy as lifting a finger to him, Xing Jue decided to save their lives.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Xing Jue pointed with his finger, and several runes appeared. Very quickly, the formless barrier became visible, and two people appeared in the barrier.
The two of them were wearing the Heaven Dao Peak's direct disciple robes. Their faces were pale, and their auras were extremely weak. The Asura power in their bodies seemed to have been squeezed dry.
"It can be seen that this ordinary-looking barrier had the power to absorb the Asura power. If Xing Jue didn't save them, they would definitely be trapped in there until they died.
"Buzz!"
As the last rune fused, the barrier was finally broken by Xing Jue. Then, the two of them scrambled to Xing Jue's side and kept thanking him.
"Thank you, senior brother. Thank you for saving our lives. May I know your name? In the future, even if I have to work like a cow or a horse, I am willing." The two of them, who were over thirty years old, knelt in front of Xing Jue and kept calling him senior brother, which made Xing Jue really speechless.
"Senior Brothers, please get up." Xing Jue helplessly helped the two of them up. When he touched their bodies, he could clearly feel how weak the two of them were. It was likely that they would not be able to continue forward.
"This is?"
At that moment, Xing Jue suddenly discovered that there was a key condensed from energy at the location where the barrier was previously.
"Could it be that this was created by the Spirit Formation?"
Xing Jue picked up the key and discovered that it was very strange. It was like a barrier, and the barrier was actually condensed with a powerful Asura's power. It was obvious that it was extracted from the two's bodies.
"Could it be that after every barrier is dissolved, it will condense into a key like this?" Xing Jue's heart was filled with doubt. He felt that this key definitely had a special use.
After rescuing the two of them, Xing Jue continued forward. He discovered that there were many similar Spirit Formation mechanisms. Furthermore, their locations were very hidden. If one wasn't careful, it was very easy to fall into one.
It was very difficult to open a Spirit Formation like that from the inside. Adding on the fact that he could absorb energy, as long as one fell into it, unless someone came to rescue them, they would not be able to escape.
In order to obtain a key like that, Xing Jue had opened a few unmanned Spirit Formation mechanisms. However, he discovered that none of them had produced a key like the one he had obtained. So he was certain that only a Spirit Formation that had absorbed other people's energy could condense a key like that.
Just as Xing Jue had guessed, on the way back, Xing Jue met a few more people who had fallen into the Spirit Formation. When Xing Jue opened the Spirit Formation, they all successfully condensed into that strange key.
However, the strangest thing was that when Xing Jue threw the key into the Soul Devouring Command, they attracted each other and condensed into a key. Although there was no change in its appearance, the energy within it became more and more terrifying.
As Xing Jue continued forward, he expanded his Soul Strength to the limit. Every time he encountered someone trapped in the Spirit Formation, he would rescue them. However, because some people had been trapped for too long, they had been trapped to death by the Spirit Formation.
From this, it could be seen that other than Xing Jue, very few people would rescue these people. It could be said that no one would rescue them. Even the disciples of the same sect would most likely watch from the sidelines.
After discovering the change in the Spirit Formation, Xing Jue didn't rush into the unknown region. Instead, he searched the area because he felt that everything wasn't as simple as it seemed. These Spirit Formations wouldn't be set up here for no reason. It didn't make sense that they were just there to trap some disciples who were less vigilant.
He guessed that it was very likely that Old Man Cloud Ghost had set up a test for them. So, Xing Jue started to go around the unknown region and search for the disciples that were trapped.
After an entire half a day, Xing Jue had practically walked through the entire unknown region. He'd opened over a hundred Spirit Formations and rescued a few dozen people. However, there were many who had died because they'd been trapped for too long or because their bodies were weak.
"This grand formation is very strong. If I enter it, then I'm afraid that even the Asura Martial God would be unable to escape."
At this moment, Xing Jue was in a corner of this space, and there was an empty space in front of him. The empty space seemed to be very ordinary, but it was actually an extremely terrifying Spirit Formation. It could be said to be the strongest Spirit Formation set up in this space, and it was far from what those Spirit Formation traps could compare to.
Moreover, this Spirit Formation was extremely well hidden. If Xing Jue hadn't carefully searched it with his Emperor Rank soul, he would have been utterly unable to discover this Spirit Formation. Fortunately, this Spirit Formation was set up in a remote area, and it hadn't trapped a single person.
"Alas, it's been an entire half a day. Those that haven't been trapped within the Spirit Formation should have already arrived at the end of the unknown region, right?"
Xing Jue raised his head to look at the sky, and he looked at the four large words' unknown region 'that were condensed from black clouds nearby. He didn't intend to continue staying in this space, and he intended to leave.
"Rumble!"
"Aowu ~"
But right at this moment, dense smoke suddenly arose from the distant forest. At the same time, red and golden radiance shot into the sky, and it seemed like an intense battle was occurring.
"The two of them have come as well?" Even though they were very far away, Xing Jue was able to guess who it was when he saw this scene. It was definitely the Dragon Sect's Wu Yuan and the Flower Valley's Yao Ting.
"They really are a pair of enemies." Xing Jue smiled lightly as he shook his head. He didn't stay here any longer, and he executed the Illusory Lightning Dashing and headed straight for the unknown region.
He wasn't worried that Wu Yuan and Yao Ting would fall into the Spirit Formation's traps, because with their strength, it was absolutely impossible. As for the Spirit Formation that he was in just now, its location was too remote. Clearly, they wouldn't be able to reach that place.
Besides, Xing Jue didn't have any relationship with the two of them, so there was no need for him to specially find the two of them and remind them what they should pay attention to. Even if he did, it would be an unnecessary action.
"This is the passageway to the unknown region?"
Following the black cloud's directions, he walked out of the forest, and what appeared before Xing Jue's eyes was a row of tall mountains. The mountains were perfectly straight, and it was simply impossible to climb them. They were like a barrier that blocked the way forward.
But luckily, there was a crack in the middle of the tall mountains. That should be the passageway to the unknown region, the Skyline.
"Disciples of the Heavenly Law Peak?"
After approaching, Xing Jue discovered that there were three males outside the passageway. They were all disciples of the Heavenly Law Peak, and they seemed to be waiting for something as they looked around.
Very quickly, the three males discovered Xing Jue and loudly asked, "Are you junior Xing Jue from the Hermit Peak?" They seemed to know Xing Jue.
"That's right. Seniors, what's the matter?" Xing Jue loudly replied.
"Junior Xing Jue, you've come at the right time. Senior Zhou Buran from the Hermit Peak is trapped in a Spirit Formation mechanism and he is on the verge of death." Seeing that Xing Jue agreed, the three males came over with faces of anxiousness.
"Oh? Where is senior Zhou right now? Bring me there. "Xing Jue closely asked with a face full of anxiousness.
"On this side." Without hesitation, the three males used their profound bodily battle skills and madly rushed towards the forest.
Under the lead of the three, Xing Jue quickly returned to the familiar forest. After an hour of extremely fast running, Xing Jue and the others arrived at a remote corner in the depths of the forest.
"Seniors, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't waste time." Suddenly, Xing Jue stopped moving forward. Looking at the three people in front of him with faces full of anxiousness, he lightly smiled and said.
"Junior Xing Jue, what do you mean?" Seeing that, the three of them were taken aback and a guilty look appeared on their faces.
"Even the three of you didn't fall into the Spirit Formation mechanism, so how did senior Zhou Buran fall into it? The three of you waiting for me there should be under someone else's orders, right?" Xing Jue sneered.
He had long seen through the three's intentions. The reason why he followed the three of them here was to get rid of future troubles. After all, it was very likely that there would be people passing by later. If he killed the three of them there and was seen by others, it would be very bad.
"Heh, since you have already seen through it, why do you still dare to follow the three of us here? Are you really not afraid of death?" Seeing that the matter had been exposed, the three of them finally revealed their true colors and emitted a threatening killing intent.
"I just want to know if it was Bai Ye who ordered you to do this," Xing Jue said with a smile.
"Why do you talk so much nonsense when you are about to die? Everyone, let's attack together. He has a treasure on him. Senior said that as long as we kill him, the treasure will belong to the three of us."
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh."
The three of them did not bother to talk nonsense with Xing Jue. With a roar, three tyrannical battle skills bombarded towards Xing Jue. In the blink of an eye, they landed in front of Xing Jue.
"~ ~ ~ Boom ~ ~ ~"
With a loud sound, a violent energy ripple swept out. Countless towering ancient trees were turned into powder and a deep pit appeared on the ground. The attack of the three Asura Wu Zun was definitely not to be underestimated.
"Hmph, this is what happens to arrogant people."
"That's right. Even this kind of trash dares to offend Senior Bai Ye. Doesn't he have a powerful master? What's the use? In this world where the strong are respected, no one can protect you if you are weak."
At this moment, Xing Jue's breath was completely gone. The three of them were certain that Xing Jue was dead, so they revealed the mastermind behind it without any scruples.
"It really is Bai Ye."
"Hu hu hu ~ ~ ~"
However, at this moment, Xing Jue's voice suddenly rang out. At the same time, a figure slowly stepped out from the energy ripple. Looking at the familiar figure, the three of them panicked.
At this moment, black gas lingered around Xing Jue. As he stepped out from the energy ripple that was still wreaking havoc, he was like a devil that had walked out from hell, striking fear into people's hearts.
