"Even so, we still need to team up. With just the two of us, we will already be suppressed when we enter the nameless canyon. According to Brother Kuang's description of the canyon and Long Yuan, even if we join forces, we might not be able to defeat Long Yuan. We still need to find others to form a team. "Lu Xiaotian said with a thoughtful expression.
"Why do we need to find others to form a team? Are we going to let them find us?" Xiang Kuo said with a smug expression.
"That's true. Let's explore the Nameless Canyon and see if there's anything strange inside." Lu Xiaotian nodded, agreeing with Xiang Kuo's idea. From the bottom of his heart, Lu Xiaotian did not really believe the news that Zhao Yuandu of the Zhao Clan had spread. He would only know the situation inside the Nameless Canyon if he went in personally.
"That's the reason." Xiang Kuang opened the wine gourd at his waist and gulped down all the spirit wine in one go until there wasn't a single drop left in the gourd. Only then did he look at Lu Xiaotian with a mischievous grin. "Brat, you've been gone for decades. I've long run out of spirit wine. I'm only left with this gourd. Now, you'll have to make up for it."
"Save it later. I can't supply you with such wild drinking." Lu Xiaotian rolled his eyes.
"I'm not taking your stuff for free." Xiang Kuo waved his hand and a small white jade bottle flew towards Lu Xiaotian.
Lu Xiaotian took the small bottle suspiciously. When he opened it, he felt a familiar aura. It was the Demon Nascent Soul of the Single-Horned Wind Howler Beast, Mu Xi!
Mu Xi, who was trapped in the small bottle, also sensed Lu Xiaotian's existence and shouted anxiously, "Lu Daoyou, why is it you? Lu Daoyou, save me!"
"You know each other?" Xiang Kuo was surprised.
"I'm not that familiar with him. We just entered the Spiritual Mound Secret Realm from the Blue Demon Sea Area together. " Lu Xiaotian smiled indifferently. To the cultivators and Great Demons of the Blue Devil Sea Region, he was simply an outsider. Otherwise, they wouldn't have broken off so quickly.
"Lu Daoyou, in any case, we've fought side by side," Mu Xi hurriedly said.
"That's not bad. However, based on our friendship, I'll just leave you to fend for yourself. I won't use you for cultivation." Lu Xiaotian released Mu Xi's Demon Nascent Soul. "Let's go. Try not to bump into me later."
Mu Xi looked at Lu Xiaotian with a complicated expression. Fearing that Lu Xiaotian would change his mind, he hurriedly turned into a beam of light and disappeared into the distance.
Xiang Kuo was also somewhat surprised. The Demon Nascent Soul of the One-horned Wind Howler was not an ordinary treasure, yet Lu Xiaotian had released it just like that.
"Let's go. Let's explore that nameless canyon. You will be a bit behind me. When we reach the nameless canyon, let's not appear at the same place at the same time. Otherwise, if we're ambushed, we won't even have time to react. " As soon as he finished speaking, the flashy red cloak behind Xiang Kuo fluttered in the wind. His entire body had turned into a beam of light and disappeared into the distance.
This guy's taste was rather vulgar. Seeing the fiery red cloak fluttering in the wind, Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but smile. However, Lu Xiaotian agreed with Xiang Kuo's arrangement. Disregarding the Two-Headed Demon Lizard and other demons that originally existed here, those who entered from the outside were basically experts who had reached the twelfth level. A few of them were simple characters. Even Great Demons like Yu Huo and Mu Xi, who were at the True Meaning level, had lost their physical bodies. Even their Demon Nascent Souls were controlled by others. Lu Xiaotian didn't think that he was much stronger than the other party.
Even though Xiang Kuang appeared to be eccentric, he was actually quite cautious in his actions.
In fact, Xiang Kuo's cautiousness had saved them a lot of trouble. Lu Xiaotian also saw that other than the wood-type Two-Headed Demon Lizard, there were also fire-type Two-Headed Demon Lizards and Ghost Lizards that emitted dense Devil Qi or Ghost Qi. Although their appearances were similar, they were in different areas and each had different abilities. Their intelligence wasn't high, but their strength wasn't weak. The illusions in this secret realm were extremely powerful. There were even a few times when Xiang Kuo, who had led the way, rushed in. Lu Xiaotian had hurriedly rescued him, using the True-Illusion Ice Pupil's miraculous ability to break illusions to avert danger many times.
However, what made Lu Xiaotian apprehensive was that the True-Illusion Ice Pupil, which had always been successful against Zhao Clan's Nascent Soul cultivators, was now somewhat strenuous looking at the illusions. It was like looking at flowers in a fog. At this time, Lu Xiaotian was paying attention to the changes in the surrounding environment. At the same time, he would also use the Spirit Chasing Dog. Using multiple methods, he was only scared but not in danger.
"Motherf * cker, it seems like the records of the clan are right. These Zhao Clan people are really harmful." Even with Xiang Kuo's ability, under the successive illusions, he also suffered some losses. At this time, he couldn't help but curse a few times.
"What special records does the Xiang Shi Clan have about the Zhao Clan?" Lu Xiaotian's brows twitched. Fear came from the unknown. The methods of the Zhao Clan people were indeed too strange. It was poles apart from the usual methods of battle. If he could understand more about the illusions of the Zhao Clan from the records of the Xiang Shi Clan, it would be good.
"It only recorded that the Zhao Clan ancestor and many experts worked together to kill the Dragon Deer. Among them, the Zhao Clan ancestor used the supreme illusions to prevent the Dragon Deer from escaping. This bought the experts precious time, allowing them to gather their strength and kill the Dragon Deer in one fell swoop. However, the Dragon Deer was also extremely powerful. Although it died, the Dragon Essence successfully escaped. At that time, many experts also failed to succeed. Later on, this secret realm met with a huge change and turned into a black water domain. The experts had already fought with the Dragon Deer until both sides were injured. Some died here because of their heavy injuries, and some died not long after returning. Of the experts who surrounded the Dragon Deer, less than one out of ten survived. "
Mentioning this record, Xiang Kuo couldn't help but sigh.
Lu Xiaotian, on the other hand, was somewhat flabbergasted when he heard this. It was hard for him to imagine just how tragic that battle was. The illusions that the Zhao Clan ancestor set up actually continued to this day and could even affect peak Nascent Soul cultivators. He didn't know if the Zhao Clan ancestor's illusions had reached a shocking level, or if it was because of the special sealed environment of this secret realm that caused part of the illusions to be preserved.
Although the magic bead was powerful, there was still a limit. From the looks of it, it could easily break through the illusions of the Zhao Clan's Nascent Soul cultivator. However, against the Zhao Clan's Patriarch, who could be considered a powerhouse in the Spirit Severing Stage, it was clearly insufficient.
Ten days later, Lu Xiaotian and Xiang Kuo stood side by side outside a vast and boundless canyon. This canyon was like a pot of boiling muddy water. Demonic winds blew inside, and ghosts wailed and wolves howled. Wind and sand rose everywhere, drifting randomly with the wind.
"It's this damned place. I've been there before. It's very strange inside. The demons and ghosts are either hidden in the wind or underground. It's extremely difficult to find. I only stayed at the edge for a while. If it wasn't for my understanding of the earth element, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to return."
