Dan Xia Peak was different from the other peaks. It was actually a double peak. Tian Yi and Tian Ji were both on this peak. Although Tian Yi was the Peak Lord, he and his disciples actually lived on the left side of the floating peak. Tian Ji lived on the right side. Because he had not accepted any other disciples apart from Shu Yi, the peak seemed a little deserted.
At the peak of the mountain, there was a single palace. Everyone followed Tian Ji to the peak and entered the palace. They headed straight for the back palace. Lonemoon and the others walked at the back. Just as they entered the inner palace, they suddenly stopped.
"Chef! This aura … "He subconsciously sent a voice transmission to the person beside him.
"Mm." Yi Qing nodded. "I see it too."
Lonemoon frowned. "Let's go in and take a look first." He followed, but the deeper they went, the thicker the aura became. When they reached a room in the back palace, the entire courtyard was already filled with that aura. It was so thick that they could not breathe.
Just as everyone was about to push the door open …
"Wait!" Lonemoon called out. He stepped forward and pulled Yu Luan back.
Yi Qing also formed an array. White light flashed under his feet. A huge array appeared under their feet. A translucent shield rose up and surrounded all the elders.
"This is …" Yu Luan hesitated. Why did they suddenly set up a defensive array?
Tian Ji, who was at the front, also turned to look at them. His expression turned cold. He glared at Yi Qing. "What are you doing?"
Yi Qing ignored him. He only looked at everyone and explained in a low voice, "There's something else in the house!"
Everyone stared blankly at him. Before they could ask, Tian Ji panicked. With a furious expression, he said, "Yi Qing, what do you mean by this? This is Little Yi's room. Are you suspecting that I'm up to something? "
Yi Qing ignored him. Instead, he directly summoned a spirit sword. "Take a look and you'll know." With that said, he waved his hand.
"What are you doing!" Tian Ji was shocked. All he saw was a beam of Sword Qi flying in front of him. The next moment, he heard a loud crash. A section of the room was cut off. The roof collapsed.
"Yi Qing, you …" Tian Ji was furious. Just as he was about to attack, he heard a loud bang.
A figure was thrown out of the room and landed heavily in the courtyard. That person was covered in blood and had a weak aura. The robe he was wearing was somewhat familiar.
"This is … Elder Shu!" An elder recognized the person on the ground and exclaimed. Wasn't this Daoist Master Shu Yuan who was in a hurry to see his daughter? Why did it become like this?
Before they could be surprised, the next moment, clouds of pitch-black gas suddenly surged out of the collapsed room in front of them, rushing toward them. Just as it was about to engulf everyone, the defensive formation under their feet lit up and instantly blocked the black gas outside.
However, the black gas outside had already spread to the entire courtyard. Wherever the black gas passed through, the flowers in the courtyard instantly withered. Even the collapsed beams and tiles cracked and weathered inch by inch, turning into a pile of sand in an instant.
"This is demonic energy!" Someone exclaimed. They finally recognized what the black Qi was and felt a chill in their hearts. Fortunately, Supremacy Yi Qing had set up a defense array in advance. Otherwise, they would not be able to withstand the demonic Qi even if it touched them. But why was there demonic energy here?
"That's … Senior Sister Shu Yi?!" Zuo Shuming's eyes suddenly widened as he looked in front of him in disbelief.
Everyone was stunned. They subconsciously looked up and realized that there was a person floating in the air amidst the thick demonic energy. She was wearing the dharma robe of a personal disciple of Gui Yi Sect. It was Shu Yi, whom Tian Ji had said was seriously injured and unconscious. However, her entire body was now enveloped in demonic qi. Her originally delicate and pretty face was now covered in black demonic runes like a spider web. Her eyes were crimson red, as if she had lost her mind. Waves of black qi were continuously being emitted from her body.
"This demonic energy … is coming from her body!" Yu Luan was shocked, his face full of disbelief. There was more and more demonic energy around them. It seemed to be spreading towards the entire Gui Yi Sect.
"Little Yi!" Tian Ji was also shocked. As if recalling something, a trace of guilt flashed across his face. He immediately flew out, as if trying to stop the person in the air.
"Uncle-Master, don't!" Yu Luan wanted to stop him, but it was too late. Tian Ji had already rushed out. Almost at the same time, the dharma robe on his body was corroded by the demonic energy. With a few sizzling sounds, his skin was burned. Tian Ji's expression changed. But he still rushed towards Shu Yi, wanting to stop her.
Shu Yi suddenly raised her hand and waved. A wave of demonic energy shot towards Tian Ji. Instantly, he was slapped back. It was obvious that she had not woken up yet.
Lonemoon glanced at Chef. He was about to ask him to do it. Shu Yi's system was also anxious. It started to make a small announcement.
"Host! Hurry and wake up! Don't let the demonic energy consume your mind. Host! Host! "
Then, there was a sizzling sound. A tiny bolt of lightning flashed across Shu Yi's body. Shu Yi's originally expressionless face contorted. A trace of pain flashed across her face. Her bloodshot eyes darkened. Slowly, she regained consciousness.
"System? I'm … "A trace of confusion flashed across Shu Yi's eyes. Before she could sort out the situation around her, she saw Zuo Shuming in the array formation. Her pupils shrank. What happened during the competition flashed across her mind. Anger surged out of her. Her eyes lit up with red light again. Murderous intent filled the air." Zuo Shuming! "
She gritted her teeth as she shouted his name. It was as if she wanted to eat him alive. Even the demonic energy around her suddenly increased. She waved her hand and directed the demonic energy around her to attack him. The demonic energy that had been moving around seemed to have received an order. It turned into thousands of black sharp blades and attacked the center.
The defensive array beneath everyone's feet shattered, and their hearts went cold. Seeing that the black Qi was about to surge towards them, Yi Qing turned his hand, and a ball of red flame burst out from his body, and rushed towards the demonic Qi.
There was a sizzling sound. The demonic Qi dissipated as if it had met its natural enemy. The demonic Qi retreated bit by bit. The entire courtyard was a fiery red. In less than two breaths' time, the demonic Qi disappeared completely. It pounced towards the source of the flames floating in the air.
"Ah!!" Shu Yi instantly let out a scream, but found that he couldn't escape the flames at all. A piercing pain came from all over his body, and he didn't care whether others could hear him or not. He shouted madly, "System, save me!"
"Ding! Encountered an unknown error. Unable to defend against this kind of flames! "
Lonemoon's expression darkened. Yi Qing was the Manager. Of course this intruder could not cut off his fire system. He hurriedly tugged at the person beside him to remind him, "Chef!" The system had not left its host body yet.
Only then did Chef retract his palm, and the flames around Shu Yi's body receded.
