Over the next few years, as Yue Gaoshan and the others had successfully taken up residence in the mountain range where Ning Qi was, the news spread far and wide. Many immortals would come after learning that there was no conflict and that everything was peaceful. Most of them were immortals who wanted to pass the trial safely and did not like to fight.
But there were a few who wanted to see what was going on here. Since neither Ning Qi nor Venerable Wen Xin had much to say about it, Venerable Redflame and the others naturally did not say anything. Apart from the cave abode on the mountaintop that they had originally occupied, more and more cave abodes appeared within the mountain range. Gradually, after a dozen to twenty years of development, this place became a well-known market.
Even some Golden Immortals and Heavenly Immortals would come here out of admiration.
The reason they came was simple: they had heard that the Grand Luo here would not simply capture people as cannon fodder, nor would they attack without a word!
After staying here for a long time, they naturally knew that there were two anomalies in this mountain range. The first one was Ning Qi. They often saw Ning Qi, a Golden Immortal in the peak stage, chatting with Master Wen Xin and the others in the stone pavilion. They could not help but speculate about Ning Qi's identity and background.
As for the second anomaly, it was Qi Ye. As the personal disciple of over twenty Grand Luo, not only did that shock the other Grand Luo, it also made many Golden Immortals and Heavenly Immortals jealous and envious!
Qi Ye's cultivation steadily rose with the support of vast cultivation resources, and he was already a mid-stage Golden Immortal, much to the delight of Venerable Wen Xin and the other Grand Luo.
Ning Qi, on the other hand, had been stuck at Golden Immortal Perfected all these years. He even hoped that the system would set an advancement mission for him, as it would be much better than being clueless now.
Within the stone pavilion.
As usual, Ning Qi listened to Venerable Wen Xin and the other Grand Luo exchange their cultivation insights. Although more and more immortals came to live here, they had a tacit understanding and did not approach the stone pavilion, which was why the members of the pavilion remained the same as before!
"Brother Beixuan! Dear Masters! Bad news! "
Qi Ye suddenly streaked through the air, looking rather anxious.
"What's going on?"
Venerable Wen Xin frowned.
Ning Qi's eyes moved slightly as he glanced around. He smelled a trace of a special aura, and this aura was very familiar to him!
"A monster that doesn't look like a daemon or immortal beast has appeared outside the mountains and ambushed a few Grand Luo seniors. After being ambushed, those Grand Luo seniors seemed to have turned into monsters as well and are hunting down everything they see!"
Qi Ye hurriedly said.
"What? Was there such a thing? Could it be that the trial mission has finally come down? "
Venerable Scarlet Flame was slightly surprised.
"Let's go take a look!"
Wen Xin Monk said immediately.
Apart from Ning Qi, the Master of Heartseeker, and the other Grand Luo who stayed in the Void, the other Grand Luo who had taken up residence here had also taken to the air after sensing the commotion. They stared somberly at the four cardinal directions, noticing that there were deformed beings in each direction.
An existence exuding a strange aura was heading towards the valley.
Five in the East, three in the South, four in the West, and six in the North!
"Isn't that Old Wu? How did he become like this? "
One of the Grand Luo gasped and pointed at a silhouette.
Many of the Grand Luo who were acquainted with Old Wu turned pale when they saw that. What could have turned a Grand Luo into such a monster? They could recognize Old Wu because of the bottle gourd he was carrying on his back!
"Master of Heartseeker, what is going on? What is the origin of these monsters? Why are even Grand Luo infected by them? "
The Extreme Monarch Grand Elder and the other Grand Luo all looked at Wen Xin Monk. After all, he was the one with the highest cultivation there. Naturally, Ning Qi and Ning Yi were also the targets of many Grand Luo.
"I don't think I've seen such an existence before."
Master of Heartseeker said with a somber expression.
"Demons."
A calm voice spoke. Everyone turned to look at Ning Qi, their faces filled with shock. In the Immortal World, all the immortals knew about the great war between the immortals and demons. It was just that the immortals who had truly witnessed the great war between the immortals and demons, were most likely the only immortals who had truly witnessed the demonic race. Hence, when they heard Ning Qi mention the word 'demonic race', their hearts were filled with shock.
Shock and astonishment!
"Brother Ning, you're saying that these things are demons?"
Master of Heartseeker's eyes moved slightly, his expression becoming even more somber.
"That can't be … Didn't the demons die out during the Great War of Immortals and Demons? Even the legendary demonic continent was destroyed! "
Venerable Redfire mumbled to himself.
The jade scroll he had seen not only recorded the Tiandao Family, but also the demons. It said that the Tiandao Family had led the demons to wipe them out.
"That's right! How could there still be demons in this world? "
Many of the Grand Luo looked doubtful, as if they did not quite believe Ning Qi's judgment.
Ning Qi smiled and did not explain in detail. As an existence at the peak of the Heavenly Demon Realm, he could change his Immortal Demon Body at will. How could he not recognize that this was a group of demons who had been contaminated by Demonic Qi, lost their minds, and turned into demons?
Only Qi Ye had the most confidence in Ning Qi. Since Ning Qi said that these beings were demons, he completely believed it!
"We can't let them get close to the valley. The Demonic Qi on them seems to be changing everything around them!"
Old Man Changshou carefully observed that wherever these fellows walked past, not a single blade of grass would grow, and even the soil was pitch-black.
Ning Qi knew very well that Demonic Qi and Immortal Qi were two extremes. The composition of this secret realm was still Immortal Qi, and whether it was the soil or the weeds on the ground, they all had Immortal Qi in them. Now that they were tainted by Demonic Qi, they would naturally be converted!
The Grand Luo looked at each other when they heard Old Man Changshou's reminder. Soon, some of them joined forces to attack the demons.
The battle ended as quickly as it began. The demons did not last long against the combined might of over a hundred Grand Luo before they were reduced to ashes!
"Fortunately, these monsters don't seem to be that strong."
One of the Grand Luo breathed a sigh of relief.
Master of Heartseeker, however, frowned deeply. "Perhaps this is just the appetizer."
