Pan Xuan lay on the second floor with a bored expression. Ever since Gu Zheng had left, Pan Xuan had not gone out. She had directly meditated and cultivated. However, as time passed, Pan Xuan's heart could not calm down. After tomorrow, Gu Zheng would be gone for a month.
Pan Xuan was wondering if he had already left and was no longer helping her with the mission.
The scenery on the second floor was very low. Pan Xuan did not have as many requirements for the environment as others. Perhaps she was good at illusions. Whatever she wanted, she could directly make it appear.
In contrast, this simple and plain style was what he liked.
Suddenly, Pan Xuan jumped up. She thought of another possibility. Could it be that Gu Zheng had encountered some danger, which was why he didn't come back on time? She was really stupid. If the other party was really delayed by something, could it be that she would continue to foolishly wait here?
She had left a mark on him. If she could not find him, she could go and find him.
Thinking of this, Pan Xuan hurried downstairs. She opened the restriction and was about to go out when she saw Gu Zheng enter.
The two of them stared at each other. Gu Zheng thought that she knew he was back and revealed a surprised expression. He did not expect Pan Xuan to be waiting for him.
"You're injured?" Pan Xuan saw that Gu Zheng's face was full of fatigue and his breathing was a little weak. She quickly helped him to a chair. "What happened? Who could injure you like this?"
"It's a long story. There was an accident." Gu Zheng had purposely wiped away the excess aura on his body before he came back so that Pan Xuan would not be able to detect anything.
"It's just that I'll be delayed for another two days." Gu Zheng said apologetically. This time, he had to recuperate. Since he came here, there were more fights and the chances of him getting injured had increased. It was not like before, when he could watch Zhao Man charge in front while he lay behind leisurely.
That was true enjoyment. In this place, there was danger all the time. He could only blame himself for being too undisciplined.
"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry." Pan Xuan comforted Gu Zheng. "It's fine no matter how many days it takes."
At this moment, an incomparably majestic aura swept over the two of them. The whole world fell silent. In Gu Zheng's perception, something seemed to be about to appear.
Gu Zheng felt a burst of panic in his heart. He did not know what had happened.
Pan Xuan and Gu Zheng couldn't care less about healing their wounds. They hurriedly walked out and found that everyone on the street had already come out. Everyone was looking at the sky. There was a faint red light shining down from above, directly shining in the middle of the Central Forest.
He didn't know what was down there that could cause such a huge commotion. Slowly, the red light disappeared, and the feeling of panic disappeared as well.
Gu Zheng glanced at Pan Xuan and hurriedly ran to the town's higher-ups. Perhaps they knew something.
By the time Gu Zheng and the others arrived, there were already many people waiting there. Everyone was discussing what had just happened. No one knew what had happened.
Even though they noticed Pan Xuan's arrival, other than a small number of people, everyone else was concerned about the situation just now.
At this time, Ouyang Ping and the others came out. Looking at the mess below, You Xing frowned and snapped his fingers. Everyone present shuddered and subconsciously looked at the sky.
Ouyang Ping took a step forward and said loudly in a voice that everyone could hear, "Quiet, everyone quiet. Sir Fan, if you have something to say, just say it."
Seeing that no one was talking, the person in charge of Shura took a step forward and said, "Everyone, don't worry. It's not a big deal. It might have been arranged by the great ancestor. It is said that the great ancestor left a treasure here. There are a few magic treasures that the great ancestor once obtained. It will automatically open at a certain time.
When everyone heard this, their hearts burned. Not to mention a few powerful magic treasures, if there was a bit of experience left by the great ancestor, then even if they did not have a meteoric rise, as long as their cultivation advanced by a small level, it would be enough.
"Is it true?" Someone shouted in disbelief. The situation just now was too terrifying. They had never seen such a situation before.
"It's true. Before I took office here, someone in the clan told me. However, if I don't appear, I can't tell everyone," Sir Fan said with certainty. "Now, everyone, don't act rashly. This is just a sign. It will take some time for it to fully appear."
"What everyone needs to do now is to gather together. I will lead everyone there." Sir Fan tried to speak loudly. "All of you, inform your friends and family to gather at Puppet Town."
With that, Sir Fan went back, followed by Ouyang Ping and You Xing.
"Is it true, Sir Fan? Why haven't we heard about it? "You Xing gave Ouyang Ping a look. Ouyang Ping understood and hurried forward.
"Of course it's true. Young Master Feng told me himself. How could it be false?" Sir Fan looked dissatisfied. He had just said it himself.
"It's not false. I just wanted to make sure." Ouyang Ping smiled.
"But you can't all go. One of you must stay here and guard this place. This is the rule. All puppets can't go. When the time comes, I will lead the team. You don't have any objections, do you?" Sir Fan looked at Ouyang Ping and You Xing with an evil smile. No matter how strong they were, even if they could kill him with one finger, they were still Shura's dogs.
If he was in a good mood, he would give the dog a bone. If he was in a bad mood, he would just give the dog a bone.
No matter how dissatisfied Ouyang Ping was, he had to smile. "Yes, yes. We will take good care of this place. Please don't worry, Sir Fan."
His smile was as flattering as it could be. Although Ouyang Ping was tall, when he bent down, he was even lower than Sir Fan. It was a funny sight.
"As long as you understand. Pay attention to discipline. Don't let anyone cause trouble."
Sir Fan didn't even look back. He went back to his office and set up a restriction. A gem appeared in the air.
"Official Yu, I've already done as you instructed." After he finished speaking, the gemstone in the air flashed with a white light and disappeared.
"But why was it so powerful? Is there something else? I don't know where Sir Fan is looking, but I hope everything goes smoothly."
When Sir Fan and the others disappeared, the crowd went into an uproar. Everyone was talking about what the Great Ancestor had left behind.
Some said it was a powerful magic treasure that could help them kill enemies. Others said the Great Ancestor had left behind a legacy for a fated person.
There were all sorts of ridiculous theories, and Gu Zheng heard even more shocking ones.
Some people patted their chests and swore that the Great Ancestor had left behind an immortal pill that could allow a Sky Immortal to immediately become a Great Luo Immortal after eating it. Many people believed this ridiculous theory.
Pan Xuan's face was full of worry. She didn't know if this unexpected event was good or bad. She had originally planned to go out, but she had to temporarily put aside the idea of going out and wait for more specific information about this matter.
Gu Zheng and Pan Xuan returned to their residence together. The two of them discussed for a while, but without any definite information, it was hard to say.
After a while, they still didn't come up with any definite information. Pan Xuan dressed up and went out alone to gather information. Gu Zheng stayed behind to recover from his injuries.
At the same time.
Su Nan also felt that terrifying majesty. She looked at the faint red light in the sky, and the little bug hiding in her ear trembled uncontrollably.
"Xiao Nan, I'm scared." When the red light disappeared, the little bug's timid voice came to her ear.
Su Nan touched her ear and comforted him. "Don't worry, little bug. I'm here. I won't let anyone hurt you."
"Mm, Xiao Nan, you're the best." The little bug felt much calmer after being comforted by Xiao Nan.
Su Nan didn't say anything else. She walked into the tower. It was empty now. Everyone had run out to see what was going on outside.
'No one will hurt you in front of me. Then please step over my dead body.'
Su Nan thought to herself before entering a meditative state. She closed her eyes and focused on recovering. Countless streams of spiritual energy flowed into her body, forming a small whirlwind.
.....
"You said that the old ancestor left behind a treasure. Is that true?" In the southernmost tower, the Left Protector asked with a face full of doubt.
"Maybe. I remember Young Master Feng mentioned it last time." The Right Protector said calmly. No matter what it was, he wouldn't get involved in it.
"Should we go take a look? Who knows, we might have some opportunities." The Left Protector was itching to go.
But the Right Protector poured a bucket of cold water on him. "Have you forgotten how we lost it last time? Just stay here and guard it. If we lose it again, we can only die to atone for our sins. "
"Besides, with our cultivation bases, what do you think will be able to help us?" The Right Protector said mockingly. "I know you're unwilling to stay at this level. Who would be willing to stay at this level without moving forward? Don't be greedy. Be steady. "
"Alright, let's not go." The Left Protector was still unwilling. But when he thought about the consequences of losing something, his life was more important. It wasn't worth it for something uncertain.
"Got it. You guys can decide for yourselves." The Right Protector suddenly said to the air.
The Left Protector wasn't surprised. "What's wrong? Did something happen?" The Left Protector knew that someone had come to report the situation outside and wanted to ask for instructions.
"There's a problem with the teleportation formation and it's been closed. The person in charge felt that the space inside was chaotic. He's afraid that something might happen. It'll probably take a few years. There are still some people who want to go take a look. Let them go." The Right Protector felt that something was wrong.
"Alright, what a pity." Although the Left Protector was unwilling, he still continued to stay here. He decided not to get involved in this mess.
After the Protector sent the news outside, Silent also received the news. He hurriedly gathered his teammates for a discussion.
"Captain hasn't returned yet. I think this is an opportunity. Let's take a look together. Captain might go there too. At that time, we might be able to get some extra benefits."
None of the team members objected. Even Sangyu was no exception. They already knew that the teleportation formation was temporarily closed due to external reasons. There was no point for Sangyu to be anxious.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Silent asked everyone to go back and pack up. They would gather here one day later and set off together.
Many people also had the same idea. There were already many people who couldn't wait to set off. Scattered or in groups, they left together and set off towards the central forest.
In the westernmost valley, Elder Qin also ordered everyone to gather quickly. When everyone came back, they would set off together.
Elder Qin didn't know what had happened, but he still wanted to go and take a look. It would be best if there was something that he could use.
On the top of Xuan Feng, there was a thin layer of light outside the whole mountain. If you didn't look closely, you wouldn't be able to see it at all. Looking from a distance, the mountain seemed to have disappeared. Only when you were very close to it could you see it.
As the main hall on the mountain closed again, two figures silently looked at the red light in the distance. The two looked at the place where the first movement occurred, as if they could see the difference there.
"There's nothing unusual. It seems that it's not the time yet." Brother Orochi, whom Gu Zheng had met before, shook his head. They had been looking over there for a long time, so he said to the person beside him with a heavy heart.
"I don't know what it is, but I hope it won't disrupt our plan."
A kind woman stood in front of Brother Snake, frowning slightly. Her eyebrows were full of worry, and she said worriedly.
"This is the last and only chance. If we wait any longer, some of these people won't be able to hold on. Then our strength will be completely gone. I hope there won't be any accidents."
"If there are other changes, I will leave here to take a look. I will leave this place to you."
"Yes, Elder Xiong, I will take good care of this place." Brother Snake replied respectfully. "What about the other peaks?"
"We have tried our best. This peak has exhausted our reserves." Elder Xiong had no choice. This peak had most of the combat power, so they could only prioritize it.
"We can only try our best to break through the defense on our own side. Only by risking our lives can we have a slim chance of survival." She didn't know how many of these people could escape. It was too difficult.
Thinking of this, she was almost shaken. She quickly shook her head. No matter how difficult it was, she had to go on. Not only for herself, but also for everyone.
Even if they didn't rush out, it wouldn't take long for their whole body and soul to be destroyed. Only their bodies would be controlled by others, so they might as well die.
The two of them shifted their gazes from afar to the mountainside. Streams of green liquid were spreading all over the mountainside, dispersing all of the baleful aura. Peng Bo's life force continued to pour out, and the purple orb no longer looked as enchanting as it used to.
Inside those circular shields, a figure in the middle was struggling madly. Soon, an arm stretched out from inside and tore the purple orbs that surrounded him.
This figure was naked. As soon as he came out, he bowed respectfully to the mountaintop, then clothes automatically appeared on his body. He walked towards the open space on the opposite side, where there were already several figures.
When passing by those orbs, the figure kept looking inside. He was once one of them, and now he was finally free.
"Fellow Daoist." The figure nodded and greeted everyone. Then, he sat down and waited quietly.
Those figures also nodded and smiled, but didn't say anything. Everyone stared silently at the opposite side, because another orb made a huge commotion. Everyone waited for the next fellow Daoist to arrive.
An incomparably huge orb was directly broken open, and a flood dragon broke out from inside. It rushed into the void and roared. Although it didn't make any sound, it was venting the depression in its heart.
Then, it turned around and landed on the ground, turning into a human. A domineering and handsome man appeared here. He also bowed towards the mountaintop and came to the opposite side.
Looking at these familiar figures in front of him, the flood dragon's ferocious face smiled slightly, making it seem even more terrifying. "Fellow Daoists." Then, he sat down on the side.
Everyone's eyes were on the opposite side. Now, there were no more Daoists who were about to break out of the orbs. Within the dense purple orbs, some of the Daoists had already begun to struggle, some had just started to move, and most were still waiting quietly without any reaction.
There were less than ten of them who were strong enough to be the first batch to break out. The rest would still need a long time.
But they believed that soon, they would come out and fill up the empty space here. The empty space here was bigger than the one on the opposite side, and they were looking forward to more Daoists breaking out and rushing out together.
They had been waiting for this moment for more than ten thousand years. Although they wanted nothing more than to kill their way out, there were still many Daoists who hadn't appeared, so they could only wait patiently.
Young Master Yu walked out of the teleportation formation and looked at the chaotic energy behind him. He smiled evilly, wondering if he had given everyone enough surprises. He hoped that they wouldn't disappoint him.
"Lord Yu, we've done as you said." In front of Young Master Yu, there was only an illusory figure and a short message, but it was enough.
Looking at the gemstone in his hand that had already turned into powder, Young Master Yu allowed it to be blown away by the wind that carried the smell of blood. Now, no one outside could sense what was happening inside, so other than what was happening inside, it had nothing to do with him.
Now, the most important thing was to tell Young Master Feng that their plan was almost complete. Everything had been arranged, and they were just waiting for it to end.
They had no idea how terrifying a group of people had been trapped inside by the Old Ancestor. Now, they were secretly preparing to break out.
.....
For several days, Pan Xuan didn't return. She had been outside asking for news. Gu Zheng's injuries had completely healed, so she decided to go out and ask around.
After walking around for a while, there wasn't a single person in sight. Occasionally, someone would appear, but they would quickly disappear. It seemed that Sir Fan's words had touched many people's hearts.
