"Seeing that all of you are so considerate of Kunlun, I feel very gratified. This matter is very important. We have to ensure the safety of all Golden Core disciples and also take into consideration the sect's reputation and benefits. Therefore, in view of your opinions, I have decided to mediate. We will recall a portion of Golden Core disciples and go in to look for our Kunlun disciples to ensure their safety. If we are able to deal with Cheng Yu inside, it would be the best. If not, we will wait for him to come out before thinking of a solution! "Yuan Yangzi suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart as he spoke to everyone.
"But Sect Master … …"
"This matter is decided. All of you go and recall your Golden Core disciples who are training outside!" Elder Cheng wanted to continue but was stopped by Wuyangzi. Ultimately, he made the decision.
"Yes, Sect Master!" When everyone saw how decisive the Sect Master was, they knew that the matter had already reached this point. They could only cup their fists and reply.
Elder Cheng saw Elder Ping was looking at him complacently, causing him to be even angrier. He harrumphed coldly before leading a few elders out.
— — — —
Just when Kunlun was arguing over Cheng Yu's matter, the other sects of the Cultivation World's 10 Great Sects had also received some news.
Chuan Ling Peak. This was the main peak of Tianshan Sect. Tianshan Sect's main hall was on top of it. It was where the Sect Master resided. It was also the place where the elders and higher-ups would discuss matters.
"All of you can withdraw first!" Tianshan Sect Master Yu Lingzi looked at the jade slip in his hand. His expression was grave. He waved his hand to dismiss the disciples, leaving behind a group of elders and higher-ups.
"Sect Master Senior Brother, why is your expression so grave? Could something big have happened?" A middle-aged beauty looked at Yu Lingzi curiously.
"Tian Xuan sent a message. In Death Forest, two special characters had appeared." Yu Lingzi replied tranquilly.
"What special characters?" Everyone asked curiously. They couldn't understand what kind of special characters would actually require them to specially send a message back to the sect.
"The first one is a young Golden Core initial stage cultivator. He's around 20 years old."
"What? 20 years old Golden Core cultivator? Which sect's genius is he from? "One of the elders voiced out in astonishment.
"Identity unknown. This isn't the most important point. The most important point is that this person has three golden cores!" Yu Lingzi's tone was obviously agitated.
"Three golden cores? How is this possible? How can someone have three golden cores? "Many elders said in disbelief.
This was because they had never heard of such a concept. From the beginning of cultivation, what they knew was that one person had one dan. They had never heard of one person having more than one dan. Suddenly hearing such news was really hard to believe. After all, they had not seen it with their own eyes.
"But the truth is like that. Tian Xuan said that a few days ago, this person fought with dozens of small sects and loose cultivators. Moreover, he has already left safely."
"This … this … is this real?" Everyone was shocked once again. An Early-stage Golden Core cultivator fighting against more than ten Golden Core cultivators alone? This was unbelievable.
"Not bad." Yu Lingzi nodded.
"Sect Head Senior Brother, then what about the second special person you mentioned?" The middle-aged beauty Yu Xuan asked again.
"The second person is a devil cultivator. He appeared in the Death Forest and killed our righteous cultivators to obtain the Golden Core to cultivate his Yin Spirit?" Yu Lingzi said with a worried expression.
"Yin spirits?" Everyone was astonished once more.
Yin spirits relied on devouring energy to advance. They were the same as demonic beasts, but much stronger than demonic beasts.
Yin spirits were creatures from another world. The cultivation world was once attacked by a large number of Yin spirits. They devoured many cultivators and caused the cultivation world to suffer heavy losses. Back then, the righteous and devil sects had to work together to resist the Yin spirits to calm the cultivation world down.
Unexpectedly, there was someone cultivating Yin spirits. This was indeed a very worrying matter. If it was just a single person cultivating, it would be fine. But if a large number of devil cultivators started cultivating Yin spirits, it was very possible that they would not be able to control it and cause a calamity of Yin spirits.
"What is this person's cultivation?" Yu Xuan frowned and asked.
"He should be in the Golden Core Initial Stage or Middle Stage. But with the existence of Yin spirits, his strength might be in the Golden Core Late Stage or even stronger." Yu Lingzi said.
"Sect Head, what do you plan to do? Discuss with the other sects or directly send disciples to kill him? "Elder Yu Shizi said.
"Now that the situation is unclear, let's send a few Golden Core Late Stage disciples to go in and take a look!" Yu Lingzi thought for a moment and said.
On Cangling Sect's main peak, Cangling Peak, a similar scene was happening to Tianshan Sect.
However, the other sects only knew of Cheng Yu's situation. They didn't know that a devil cultivator had appeared in the Death Forest.
— — — —
At the moment, a strange scene was happening in the dense forest of the Forest of Death. A big cauldron was flying around in the forest at the speed of light.
If anyone were to see it, they would definitely be elated. Because this cauldron was actually a soul artifact.
"Senior Brother, following you is truly too satisfying. To be able to traverse through this mysterious forest so leisurely, other than us, there's probably no one else." Tian Xing laid down in the Mountain River Diagram, looking at everything outside as he cried out excitedly.
"That's for sure. As a person, we must be different from others. If we were to be like others, how would we be able to reach here so easily?" Cheng Yu smiled. Previously, he felt that he mustn't be too high profile. Therefore, he had only revealed his Purple Light Sword.
If they were to traverse through Death Fantasy Ocean, the number of people who could reach here would be very little. Cheng Yu wasn't afraid of exposing himself. Besides, with his current strength, there was nothing to be afraid of in this forest.
In any case, Nascent Soul cultivators wouldn't be able to enter. Even if he were to encounter a Golden Core late stage cultivator, he would be able to deal with him. What else was there to be afraid of?
Currently, Cheng Yu had already treated the Mountain River Diagram as his cultivation space. Therefore, all seven spiritual veins were placed inside, floating above the Mountain River Diagram.
It caused the spiritual Qi in the entire space to be abnormally dense. Cultivating here was extremely fast. During this period of time, Tian Xing and Tian Xue had improved very quickly.
Tian Xing had already advanced to Foundation Establishment late stage while Tian Xue was about to form her core. Currently, they were in seclusion. Cheng Yu was also very carefree.
Cheng Yu kept the Mountain River Diagram into the Jewel Cauldron while they hid within it. After that, he controlled the Jewel Cauldron to fly around. Their journey could be said to be extremely safe.
Even if they were to encounter demonic beasts, Cheng Yu would no longer have any interest. He would just charge forward recklessly. In any case, he didn't need to worry about anything. If he were to encounter something he couldn't get past, Cheng Yu would come out to deal with it personally.
Currently, Cheng Yu's thoughts were all on the last palace, the Bewitching Palace. How would he have any interest to deal with those demonic beasts? Currently, they were already nearing the center of Death Forest. The demonic beasts were basically all in the Golden Core Realm and above. Cheng Yu wouldn't kill them.
If he could dodge, he would. If he couldn't, he would just run away. In any case, he would try his best not to cross hands with them.
A few days later, a lot of people in the Bewitching Forest saw a strange scene. A soul artifact was moving around the forest unpredictably.
However, this thing was too fast. In a blink of an eye, it was gone. Everyone was vexed and regretful. Such a good thing, yet they couldn't catch up to it. Truly infuriating!
Some of them were lucky and just happened to bump into the cauldron moving past them. However, just when they were about to go forward to retrieve the soul artifact, the cauldron suddenly exploded forth with a powerful aura. By the time they regained their senses, the cauldron had already moved far away.
— — — — —
In this dense forest, there was a group of 30 plus people. The most eye-catching thing about the group was that there were a dozen female cultivators. Every single one of them was as beautiful as a flower.
In this sea of fog, their beautiful figures were faintly discernible, like a real fairy. All the male cultivators in the group couldn't help but feel nostalgic.
This group of people was none other than Huaxian Valley's Ning Yan, Shushan Sect's Wu Ming, and Cangling Sect's Ling Hai.
"Junior Sister Ning Yan, we seem to have lost our way again," Ling Hai stood in front of Ning Yan and said.
Ever since Wu Ming met Ling Hai, he had been very gloomy. Because he was always the one leading the way, while Ling Hai would always be at the back with Ning Yan. This made him very angry.
He had also argued with Ling Hai many times to let him lead the way. However, Ling Hai would always put a high hat on him in front of Ning Yan. In order to maintain his cultured and refined demeanor, Wu Ming would always be unable to win against Ling Hai.
Ling Hai's words seemed to be directed at Ning Yan, but Wu Ming was able to understand the meaning behind it.
Because he was the one leading the way, he had already lost his way countless times. He was also very gloomy because he had never been to this layer before.
"Senior Brother Wu Ming, let's stop and eat something first!" Ning Yan was also very gloomy. Every day, these two people would argue in front of her, but she would always be implicated by them.
Previously, when Ling Feng wasn't around, she and Wu Ming had a lot of peace. But now, Ling Hai was always by her side, which made her very frustrated.
"Alright!" Seeing Ning Yan ignoring Ling Hai, Wu Ming felt much better.
"Don't you guys feel that this place is very strange?" Ning Yan took out her water bag and drank some water. She noticed the markings that they had made earlier and asked doubtfully.
"What do you mean?" Wu Ming asked confusedly.
"Look at the markings on the tree. When we made the markings, they were always on the left side, facing forward. But now that we are walking in this direction, the markings are on the right side, facing backward. Doesn't this mean that we are walking back? "Ning Yan pointed at the markings on the tree and said.
"Eh? It's really the opposite? How can it be like this? "Wu Ming and Ling Hai also noticed this problem.
"So you are saying that we have been walking for half a day here?" Ling Hai asked.
"Seems like we have to find a new route." They had lost their way countless times along the way. They were already used to getting lost. Since they couldn't figure it out, they would just open a path in the middle.
Actually, they couldn't figure out where they were now. However, they had roughly reached the center of the forest.
Luckily, they had a lot of people. They were able to kill the demonic beasts quickly. Those that could be killed were all stored as food.
"Senior Sister, when can we return home!" Ning Zi stood in front of Ning Yan and asked weakly. Her expression was so miserable that it made people's hearts ache.
