Inside a cave that was glowing with a green light, a dozen or so female disciples dressed in Divine Cloud Immortal Palace clothes walked in step by step. They carried a basket on their backs, talking and laughing at the same time. In the terrifying atmosphere, they seemed extremely relaxed.
The leader was the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace's Elder Yu Yu, her expression was solemn, holding onto a silver staff, she looked around with extreme concentration.
"All of you, focus, it is said that a group of Spirit Demon came here not long ago, their demonic energy is dense, and have already harmed many Spirit Cultivator, this time we are here to collect rainbow jade crystals, these crystals are considered treasures to the Spirit Demon, if they sense us, they will definitely fight with us, in order to avoid trouble, we need to act quickly, so, all of you, be more serious!" Just then, Yu Yu shouted.
Hearing that, the disciples immediately shut their mouths.
Seeing that, Yu Yu gave up.
The group of people continued to move forward, but as they went deeper, the green light in the cave became denser, and the demonic qi in the air became denser, causing everyone to frown, feeling that something was amiss.
"The demonic qi is so dense, but I can't see a single Spirit Demon, I'm afraid that the other party has already sensed our existence and intentionally hid themselves, everyone be careful."
Yu Yu said.
"Yes, Elder!"
The disciple shouted.
However, after taking a few steps forward, a bright light suddenly entered everyone's eyes. All of the disciples' gazes were immediately attracted by the light. When they got closer, they saw that not far away, there was a large number of crystal stones that were glowing.
These crystal stones were like fruits that grew on the ground, covering the entire path in front of them. At a glance, it was extremely dazzling, as though it was the path of a god.
"It's a rainbow jade crystal!"
"There's actually so many of them! This is great!"
All of the disciples were overjoyed.
"Quick, quickly collect these crystal stones! Move faster! "
Yu Yu shouted anxiously.
Hearing that, all of the disciples immediately moved.
Everyone split up to collect, leaving only a few people at the front to collect, while the rest headed deeper into the cave.
What was surprising was that the crystal stones at the back were densely packed, like sesame seeds squeezed together, they were uncountable.
"This amount is enough for our sect to use for thirty years."
Yu Yu said happily.
She had never seen so many rainbow jade crystals before. What kind of blessed land was this, to be able to produce so many crystals that they had yet to be picked?
"Ah!!!"
Right at this moment, a panicked voice sounded out.
Yu Yu's nerves tightened. She looked towards the direction of the voice and saw the disciples who were picking the rainbow jade crystals looking at their palms in panic.
Their palms were now dark green. The colorful jade crystals that they had taken off from the ground were directly vaporized and turned into streams of dark green gas. These gas seeped into their palms and quickly spread through their entire bodies. In the blink of an eye, all the disciples fell to the ground …
"Not good!!"
Yu Yu's expression changed. She immediately knew that her group had fallen into a trap. She quickly rushed over to save these disciples.
But at this moment, a sinister laughter suddenly came from inside the cave.
"Hahahahaha … I didn't expect there to be such stupid people … These idiots are going to be my meal today, hahahaha …"
"Big brother, you have to share some with me. I haven't eaten meat for so many days, I'm starving to death!"
"That's right, Big Brother. There are so many fat sheep this time, it's enough for us to share!"
"Don't worry! Everyone will be able to eat their fill today!! "
After the laughter faded, a few ferocious looking existences walked out from the depths of the cave. These people were all demons with human bodies and beast heads. They were especially terrifying.
Seeing these existences, Yu Yu's expression immediately turned ugly.
She could not sense the cultivation of these people. It was enough to see that these fellows' strength was above her.
If it was only one or two, she might be able to hold them back. But there were so many people in front of her … she was afraid that she would not be able to hold them back.
Today … she would have to give up her life here.
Yu Yu took a deep breath. A cold light flashed in her eyes.
"Eh? There's still one who didn't fall into the trap? What? There are so many colorful jade crystals on the ground. Don't you want them? "
A snake-headed guy glanced at Yu Yu and said with a deep smile.
"Audacious demon, do you know who we are? Quickly scram, or else I'll teach you a lesson! "
Yu Yu clenched her teeth and shouted angrily.
Unexpectedly, when she said this, the demons laughed loudly.
"You really don't know life from death. You're already at death's door and you're still so stubborn."
"Big brother, don't talk nonsense. I'm going to collect the goods. I'm starving to death!"
A leopard head guy said impatiently. He licked his sharp teeth and walked towards the poisoned disciples of the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace.
Seeing this, Yu Yu could not hold it in anymore. She raised her sword and rushed forward.
"Damn demon, die!!!"
The sword tip whistled, as if it had the determination to die.
Seeing this, the few demons laughed even more happily.
"Hahahaha … Are there so many idiots in this world? You really overestimate yourself … "
"Leopard head, don't kill them. You can play with them."
The rest of the demons stood at a distance as if they were watching a show. Their faces were filled with amusement.
Unexpectedly, the sword in Yu Yu's hand suddenly exploded. The broken pieces turned into thousands of cold needles and shot towards the demons.
The demons were caught off guard. One by one, they were pierced by the cold needles and fell to the ground. It was hard for them to get up. A thin layer of frost actually formed on their bodies!!
So Yu Yu's impulsiveness was all an act!!
When the demons lowered their guard, it gave her the chance to sneak an attack.
She quickly rushed over and helped the disciples who had fallen to the ground up. She hurriedly took out some pills from her storage ring and stuffed them into their mouths.
After the pills entered their stomachs, the disciples finally regained consciousness.
They struggled to stand up. Their faces were filled with worry and their auras were weak. It was obvious that the pills could only temporarily slow down the injuries in their bodies and could not completely heal them.
"Go!! Quickly go!! "
Yu Yu did not dare to delay. She pulled the disciples and ran out of the cave.
Although the disciples were weak, they knew the current situation. How would they dare to stay? All of them clenched their teeth and forced themselves to run away.
But … they were poisoned, and their speed was too slow!
Yu Yu turned her head to look at the demons who were poisoned. She saw that they were forcefully circulating their demonic power to melt the frost on their bodies. Not long later, they would recover.
It was not a good idea to continue like this!
Yu Yu immediately took out her sect badge and sent out a signal. She requested for reinforcements from the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace.
There was quite a distance from here to the Immortal Palace. It would take at least an hour for them to arrive! From the looks of it, these people would not be able to escape from the demons' palms. There must be someone to bring up the rear. Otherwise, they would be completely annihilated!
Yu Yu's face congealed. She stopped in her tracks and shouted at the injured disciples: "All of you go first. Quickly return to the Immortal Palace!"
The disciples were stunned.
"El … Elder …"
"Quickly go!!"
Yu Yu said angrily. She took out a treasure from her storage ring and rushed towards the demons without looking back.
The demons had not completely broken free from the frost. She still had a chance. Maybe she could even suppress them.
The other disciples were dumbfounded. When they saw Yu Yu's actions, every single one of their hearts were filled with pain and sorrow. However, reality was so cruel. They, who were poisoned, had long since lost their ability to fight. If they didn't leave now, they would only lose their lives in vain.
However, Yu Yu would not be able to return this time.
The disciples left the cave and rushed towards the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace.
Along the way, there were many people who fainted from the poison. But they could not care about that now. The remaining people continued to run. Only by finding the people from the Immortal Palace could they live.
Not long later, there were only five people left rushing towards the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace.
They did not know if the five of them would be able to hold on until they reached the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace. They did not dare to activate their Spirit Qi. If they did, the poison in their bodies would act up even faster! The poison seemed to be specially prepared for Spirit Cultivators.
Just as everyone was in despair, the sound of something tearing through the air came out from the distance. Everyone raised their heads to look. They saw countless of Divine Cloud Immortal Palace people rushing over. Leading them was Shangguan Qing Cheng.
"It's the Mistress! The Mistress is here! The Mistress is here! "
"That's great! The Mistress is here! We're saved! "
Everyone seemed to have been saved from death's door. They cried tears of joy and used their last bit of strength to shout out.
The Divine Cloud Immortal Palace people in the sky noticed the disciples. They all flew down and landed in front of them.
"What happened?"
Shangguan Qing Cheng stared at the disciples and asked.
"Reporting to the Mistress, Elder Yu Yu was ordered to bring us to the nameless cave ahead to collect the rainbow jade crystals, but who knew that these were not crystals, but a trap set by the Spirit Demon people. They used this to lure the Spirit Cultivators over, so that they could prey on them. We did not investigate and fell into their trap, and now we are all poisoned."
"Mistress, Elder Yu Yu is bringing up the rear for us. He is blocking the Spirit Demon people alone. Quickly go and save her. If we are late, we will be finished!"
The disciples were crying and shouting, the scene was extremely chaotic.
Although they did not speak clearly, Shangguan Qing Cheng already knew what they meant. Her face darkened, she turned her head and bellowed: "All of you, quickly bring them down to treat their injuries. The rest of you, follow me! Quick! "
With that said, Shangguan Qing Cheng rushed into the distance.
Along the way, all the disciples were saved. However, some of them were poisoned too deeply. Even if they were saved, their cultivation base would still be damaged. However, Shangguan Qingcheng didn't care about this at all. The only thing she cared about was Yu Yu who was still trapped in the cave.
As an elder of the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace, Yu Yu was extremely important. Nothing could happen to her. Furthermore, she was carrying out a mission for the sect. How could she let anything happen to her?
The group of people moved as fast as lightning and finally reached the interior of the cave.
Then, a terrifying stench of blood wafted out from the inside of the cave.
"Not good!"
Shangguan Qingcheng cried out in alarm and rushed in.
But the scene in front of her caused her to be stunned.
