"Today, I'm about to ascend to the Immortal World. Remembering the bloodthirsty nature of the demons in my race, I'm afraid that the two races will once again become enemies and lose the right path of the Great Dao. Using the Origin-Returning Pearl as a contract, I hope that the fated person will obtain it and pass it on to my descendants. Remember that life and death are all karma. Getting rid of the murderous heart and jumping out of one's nature is the path of immortal ascension. "
As soon as he finished speaking, the illusion became fainter and fainter. There seemed to be golden light shining on him from all directions, and the voice became even fainter.
"I hope that I can see Great Immortal again in my life and thank her for enlightening my race."
In the next moment, the phantom completely disappeared, and even the flashing white array formation dimmed. It was as if it had never appeared.
Lily summoned a fireball and lit up the room again. She looked confused.
"That illusion just now … what did it mean?" She was a little confused, but she vaguely guessed that this should be the place where the demon race used to live. But the other party ascended, so he left this place behind.
Yi Qing shook his head. He didn't hear it very clearly either. That illusion must have been talking about something that happened a long time ago. He was a little surprised that there was a time when humans and demons actually lived in harmony. By right, demons loved to eat humans and were untameable. The cultivators were all mortals in the past, so when the two races met, it had always been a life-and-death battle. Either the humans were eaten by the demons, or the demons were killed and their inner cores were taken out. Other than that, there was no other way. Only the Demon King guarding the mountain in Honesty Sect had no choice but to submit because of the blood contract.
"Aren't we looking for a way out?" Jing Qi suddenly reminded, breaking the two's thoughts. "Let's hurry and find what else is here?" A hint of nervousness flashed across his face. He started to look around, afraid that if the two continued thinking, they would ask about the Origin-Returning Pearl sooner or later. He subconsciously touched the storage bag beside him. It turned out that the pearl he saw flying around when he rushed in was actually a treasure left behind by a mighty cultivator who was about to ascend. He suddenly felt excited. As long as he could get out, his cultivation would definitely increase by another level. He might even have the possibility of forming his core.
The two came back to their senses. They really didn't continue thinking about the illusion and were about to look around carefully. Suddenly, the ground shook, and the sound of something falling could be heard. There were even bricks and tiles falling from above.
"This place is about to collapse. Get out!" Yi Qing reminded and flew up on his sword.
The other two reacted as well. One after another, they used their Mounts to rush out. Their surroundings were collapsing even faster. Several times, they were almost smashed. It was not easy for them to fly out. When he turned around, he saw that the entire mansion had been turned into ruins, and the ground was shaking non-stop.
"Look, something is rising from the ground," Lily pointed to the center and exclaimed.
The two of them looked over. Sure enough, something was slowly protruding from the middle of the ruins. Suddenly, something was breaking out of the ground. Not long after, the surrounding bricks and tiles fell, and a huge stone statue suddenly rose from the ground.
The stone statue was very tall, even wider than the ruins that had just collapsed. It slowly rose higher and higher until it reached the top of the pitch-black sky. At this time, the upper half of the stone statue appeared in front of the giant. It was a woman, and in her hand was a round, fruit-like artifact. He narrowed his eyes, and that face …
"Why do I find him a little familiar?" Lily was stunned.
Jing Qi was also shocked. "This isn't …"
He reflexively turned to look at Yi Qing beside him, only to see that he was completely stunned. He stared straight at the stone statue in front of him with wide eyes. After a while, he murmured, "Master?"
Jing Qi's face darkened. This stone statue was the woman with the surname Shen, who had eaten at Yi Qing's house. She was also the master who later took him in as a disciple. But why would her stone statue appear in this mystic realm, and in the mansion of the owner of the ruins?
He suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. He could not understand the person beside him anymore. Looking at the other's stunned look, he could not help but say sarcastically, "Hmph, that master of yours still has a lot of secrets! It seems that your master-disciple relationship is nothing more than this! "
Yi Qing's expression changed. He turned to look over, and his eyes instantly turned as cold as ice. An overwhelming Sword Qi directly rushed toward the other party.
Jing Qi's eyes widened suddenly, and his heart suddenly stopped. His whole body felt like it had fallen into an ice cave. All the meridians in his body seemed to be frozen in an instant, as if he would die in the next moment.
"There's an exit up there!" Lily, who was beside him, suddenly exclaimed and pointed to the top of the stone statue. The stone statue rose up and directly pushed away the black wind blades above, as well as the swamp that seemed to have a life of its own. They could get out by following the direction of the stone statue.
Yi Qing then turned to look up and said in a low voice, "Let's go!"
He directly turned and flew up, and Lily immediately followed.
Jing Qi took two deep breaths and pressed on the position of his chest. He then looked at Yi Qing who was not far away. It must have been an illusion just now. Yi Qing was only a Foundation Establishment cultivator. How could he have such a terrifying sword aura?
His face darkened, and he felt a little dazed just now. Only then did he follow out.
Because the statue directly pushed away the layer of swamp, the few of them flew out smoothly and were no longer entangled.
"Little Uncle-Master!!" As soon as he flew out, the disciples who had been waiting in the air for a day immediately surrounded him. There were even some younger disciples who couldn't control themselves and burst into tears.
"Little Uncle-Master, wow, you really came out. We were all scared to death. "
"Yes, Little Uncle-Master, you don't even know that we burned the incense. If you didn't come out in a moment, we would have rushed in."
"Little Uncle-Master, wow … That's great, Little Uncle-Master, I'm not dreaming, right? You're really alive."
"Little Junior Brother, don't cry, your snot is going to rub on it."
"Sob sob sob, I'm happy."
Yi Qing still had that cold and serious look on his face. He frowned and took a few steps back, staying further away from the disciple with a runny nose. He turned to look at the incense stick on the ground that was about to burn out and asked, "Is everyone here?"
The disciples nodded. "They're all here, no one is missing."
"Mm."
There were also a few Danqing Sect disciples at the scene, surrounding Lily to check on her. They might have rushed over because of the previous distress signal.
For a moment, only Jing Qi's side was empty. There was not a single person there. He glanced at Yi Qing, who was surrounded by the disciples, and his expression became even more sinister. He snorted coldly and flew away without saying anything.
The others did not notice at all. Maybe no one cared!
Instead, a few Senior Sisters from Lily's side came over and thanked Yi Qing solemnly.
Yi Qing nodded and did not say much. It was just a small effort. He would take it as a return to Grandma Wang for taking care of him back then. After calculating the time, he led the disciples and flew in the direction of the mystic realm's exit.
But his frown did not loosen. There seemed to be something between his brows.
