As soon as the voice rang in the air, two monsters with the heads of cows and the bodies of humans shrouded in black mist appeared in front of Zhu Lüqi.
Zhu Lüqi also discovered that he was in a different place.
Apart from the dark sky and the blood-red moon, the withered trees and the barren forest had disappeared. He was now in a barren valley.
The two monsters standing in the air in front of him were staring at him with their blood-red eyes that were as big as gongs.
"Who … Who are you?"
Zhu Lüqi felt his scalp tingle as he looked at the two monsters in front of him. Both of them were extremely dangerous.
Moreover, the Devil Qi they emitted was even purer and more exaggerated than a Devil Cultivator like him.
"Human?"
Upon hearing Zhu Lüqi's words, the two monsters looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.
"H-he said 'human'?"
One of the monsters asked excitedly.
"Yes."
The other monster was excited as well. "When I used the Seduction Technique earlier, I noticed the Devil Qi in his body was not pure. As it turns out, he's a human!"
"Why would a human appear in the Exiled Realm? Could it be that he's from the Saint Province Realm? "
"According to the ancient legends, apart from the Devata Realms and the mundane realms, only the Saint Province Realm, which is adjacent to the Exiled Realm, has humans in the mundane realm!"
"However, isn't there a spatial barrier between the Exiled Realm and the Saint Province Realm? Haven't we, the powerhouses of the 'Exiled Plane', dreamt of breaking that barrier for hundreds of thousands of years, but we've never succeeded? "
"Could it be that this human discovered the spatial barrier and came here from the Saint Province Realm?"
…
The two monsters with the heads of cows and the bodies of humans discussed as though there was no one else around. When their words entered Zhu Lüqi's ears, he was confused.
He had heard of the Devata Realms and the mundane realms.
However, he had never heard of the Exiled Realm or the Saint Province Realm.
Of course, he also vaguely realized:
The Saint Province Realm mentioned by the two cow-headed men was the Dao Martial Saint Land where he was originally from.
However, he had never heard of the Exiled Realm when he was in the Dao Martial Saint Land.
"You're not human? Then what exactly are you?! "
Taking a deep breath, Zhu Lüqi mustered up his courage and asked. He was too curious about the identity of the two monsters in front of him.
Judging by their tone, they were not humans at all!
Besides, Zhu Lüqi did not think they were Saint Beasts.
Generally speaking, Saint Beasts would either be in their beast form or human form. They would never appear in such a strange form.
This was the first time he had seen such a monster with the head of a cow and the body of a human.
Not only was this the first time he had seen one, he had never even heard of such a monster that was neither human nor beast.
"He asked what we are?"
The two monsters began to talk again.
"Has he never heard of Devils?"
"I think he hasn't … Otherwise, he would've recognized us as Devils."
"He can't even recognize us as Devils … Does this mean he won't be able to recognize us as members of the Ox Devil Clan?"
"That's for sure!"
The conversation between the two monsters with the head of a cow and the body of a human entered Zhu Lüqi's ears. Horror dawned on Zhu Lüqi immediately.
"Devils? You're Devils? "
When Zhu Lu Qi looked at the two monsters again, it was as though he had just seen a ghost. He exclaimed, "If both of you are Devils, don't tell me this is the Land of Exile, the homeland of the legendary Devils in our Dao Martial Saint Land?"
Zhu Lüqi had learned about the Land of Exile when he was in the White Tiger Sanctum of Zoroastrianism.
Other than cultivating, he also liked to flip through all kinds of ancient books and records.
When he was in the White Tiger Sanctum, he had read a very, very, very ancient book that introduced the Land of Exile.
According to legend, a long time ago, there was a Great Human-Devil War in the Dao Martial Saint Land.
It was said that during that era, a group of Devils came from a place that the people of the Dao Martial Saint Land had never heard of before and invaded the Dao Martial Saint Land.
That era was also known as the Human-Devil Era.
And the place where those 'demons' came from was also known as the 'land of exile'!
During the Human-Devil Era, the Great Human-Devil War had almost turned the world upside down.
Although the humans managed to defeat the Devils in the end, it also caused a great reshuffle in the Dao Martial Saint Land. Many powerful forces disappeared and ceased to exist.
It was also at that time that the three great sects were born.
Devil Cultivators began to appear at that time as well. Devil Cultivators were human Martial and Dao Cultivators who had mastered some of the Devil Clan's cultivation techniques.
As time went by, the Devils returned to the Land of Exile and no longer showed themselves. The peaceful days caused the people of the Dao Martial Saint Land to gradually forget about the Devils who had invaded their homeland.
In the end, the Dao Martial Saint Land was divided into two, the Upper Province and the Upper Province.
At that time, everything about the Land of Exile and the Devils was gradually forgotten by the people of the Dao Martial Saint Land. It was only recorded in words that existed in the three great sects.
"Legend has it that the reason the Devils were able to invade the Dao Martial Saint Land from the Land of Exile was because they had spent a million years to set up an earth-shattering Devil Formation that broke the space barrier between the Land of Exile and the Dao Martial Saint Land!"
Zhu Lüqi recalled the words he had read in the book.
"In the end, the Great Human-Devil War broke out. The Devils were defeated and were chased back to the Land of Exile. At that time, the powerful figures among the humans had set up a Grand Sealing Formation to forcefully seal the gap in the space barrier.
If the Devils wanted to make a comeback, they would have to spend at least a few hundred thousand years or even a few million years before they could break the space barrier again. However, it has only been a few hundred thousand years since the Human-Devil Era.
"Does this mean that I was sent to the Land of Exile by a faulty Inter-domain Teleportation Formation?"
Zhu Lüqi's expression turned grave when he thought about this.
Not even in his wildest dreams did he think he would be so unlucky one day.
The Land of Exile was not a good place for him.
"Dao Martial Saint Land?"
The two minotaurs heard Zhu Lüqi's exclamation and turned to look at Zhu Lüqi.
"Legend has it that the Dao Martial Saint Land is the main continent of the Saint Province Realm!"
"It seems like he's really from the Saint Province Realm. Let's bring him back to our clan. Perhaps, we'll be able to find a passage to the Saint Province Realm through him!"
"Legend has it that the Saint Province Realm is very rich. Not only is the cultivation environment a hundred or a thousand times better than the Land of Exile, but it's also filled with countless Saint Stones and mineral resources!"
At this point, the two monsters' eyes lit up as they looked at Zhu Lu Qi.
As soon as the two minotaurs finished speaking, Zhu Lüqi made his move, intending to escape.
However, before he could take more than a few steps, one of the minotaurs caught up to him and grabbed him like an eagle catching a chick.
Their strength was not on the same level at all.
Both of the minotaurs were three meters tall. One of the minotaurs carried Zhu Lüqi as though he was carrying a very light item.
"Let's go! Bring him back to the clan! "
Then, the two minotaurs carried Zhu Lüqi away.
Based on their conversation, it was clear they were members of the Ox Devil Clan in the Devil Clans. They were two Ox Devils!
"Duan Lingtian, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you inform your clan anymore …"
When Zhu Lüqi was captured by the two Ox Devils, he was already prepared to die. He felt helpless when he thought about Duan Lingtian's request.
At this moment, he could only hope that Duan Lingtian would go to the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land to warn his clan.
Naturally, he knew it was impossible.
As the saying went, 'There are always exceptions.'
While Zhu Lüqi was being brought back to the Ox Devil Clan by the two Ox Devils, Li An, the First Silver Flame Elder of the Black Turtle Sanctum, one of the Four Symbols Sanctums of Zoroastrianism, had arrived at the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land with the people Yang Chong, the fifth elder of the Northern Plethora Sect, had arranged for him.
"Greetings, lords!"
The Watchers from the Dao Martial Saint Land quickly bowed respectfully when they saw Li An and the others who were charging at them menacingly.
He was only an Early Quintessential Saint Stage Martial Cultivator.
However, even the weakest person in this group of people was at the Saint Celestial Stage or above.
As someone who came from a first-rate force in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land and had seen much of the world, he could sense this.
"Have you seen this person before?"
Li An raised his hand and opened a portrait.
It was a handsome young man in the portrait.
The portrait showed Duan Ling Tian's appearance after he had disguised himself. It was also his appearance when he was in the Fire Worship Sect.
"It's very likely that he's from the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. If he's from the Lower Province, you must have seen him before. Do you find him familiar? “
Li An asked in a deep voice. His aura surged out and pressed down on the Watcher of the Dobusei Subterranean. The Watcher's face turned pale. However, he shook his head in the end. "I've never seen him before."
And what he said was indeed the truth.
"He's called Duan Lingtian. Are you sure you've never seen him before?"
Li An asked again.
"Duan Lingtian?"
