A dozen days later, Lu Xiaotian did not use the Break World Bug. With his knowledge of formations and restrictions, he was still unable to discover the restrictions. Not only was there a faint gloomy aura in the cave, but there was also an unusual Spiritual Qi in the cave.
The others heard Red Cloud Sang's voice and went through the water curtain. They entered the cave. Seeing Red Cloud Sang lead the way, Lu Xiaotian sighed. Although he knew this place was unusual, with Red Cloud Sang leading the way, he did not discover anything. The others did not think anything was wrong. Even if he knew something was wrong, there was nothing he could do. The more it was like this, the more Lu Xiaotian felt like something was wrong. Compared to when he had spent a few years breaking the restrictions outside and finding the entrance to the Floating Mist Palace, he had spent a year and a half walking on the green plank path. Now, Red Cloud Sang clearly lacked the patience to deal with his doubts.
Just as Lu Xiaotian was hesitating, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew over. Lu Xiaotian was shocked. If not for his secondary primordial spirit being constantly vigilant of the surrounding environment, he would not have noticed this soft and gentle Qi.
While Lu Xiaotian was dodging, the mountain shook. The cave, which had looked very sturdy before, suddenly had a lot of rocks fall. In the blink of an eye, a lot of rocks fell and filled up the cave they had passed through.
A black shadow flashed. With an unimaginable speed, it carried a deathly aura and attacked Lu Xiaotian. Lu Xiaotian held the Earth Splitter Knife with both hands and slashed out. The terrifying aura of death spread out, and even Lu Xiaotian felt his heart palpitate when he came in contact with it.
There was a clang. The Earth Splitter Knife seemed to strike an indestructible stone. However, Lu Xiaotian did not think he would be able to kill the enemy in one hit. Instead, he used the recoil to retreat. At the same time, a shadow doppelganger with the same presence as Lu Xiaotian appeared.
The black shadow made a hissing sound. At this time, another presence approached. It was Red Cloud Sang. Lu Xiaotian was shocked, and he quickly swallowed the soul essence of the eighth-order Deep Sea Green Demonic Ape. His physical strength suddenly increased greatly. In this kind of winding and narrow mountain path, the explosive force brought by his physical strength was even faster than the pure cultivation base.
Once again, the black shadow missed its target. It managed to grab Lu Xiaotian's Shadow Doppelganger. At the same time, Lu Xiaotian had already borrowed the force of the attack. In the blink of an eye, he was already dozens of feet away.
The black shadow hesitated for a moment. Obviously, he didn't expect that Lu Xiaotian, who seemed to be the weakest, would be so fast that even he missed. Seeing the other cultivators who seemed to be facing a great enemy, he sneered and rushed towards them.
The ones who suffered the most were the three newly joined Jin Dan cultivators. Although they were all mid-stage Jin Dan cultivators, when their Core essence magic tools slashed at the black shadow, they reacted the same way as Lu Xiaotian's Earth Splitter Knife. They were quickly bounced back.
A scream sounded. When Lu Xiaotian turned around, he saw the black shadow pounce on a newly joined Jin Dan cultivator. It was a crippled man. It was only now that Lu Xiaotian could clearly see what the black shadow looked like. It had two pairs of sharp fangs. Its face was dark green and there was no flesh that a normal person should have. Instead, there was a bit of dark green flesh wrapped tightly around its withered bones. Its eyes were deep, filled with ruthlessness and cunning. It had the intelligence that zombies and other undead creatures should not have. Its entire body seemed to be made of spirit metal. It exuded a metal-elemental aura that did not belong to undead monsters.
"Iron Corpse Scabbard!" Lu Xiaotian's mind suddenly flashed with a terrifying monster.
The iron corpse scabbard's sharp fangs smoothly pierced the skin on the crippled man's neck. The crippled man struggled wildly on the brink of death. His fists and feet landed on the iron corpse scabbard, but the iron corpse scabbard did not even react. In a breath or two, the crippled man, a mid-stage Jin Dan cultivator, stopped breathing. His plump body shrank rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into a corpse scabbard similar to the iron corpse scabbard. However, unlike the iron corpse scabbard, the crippled man's skin was white. His aura was not as strong as the iron corpse scabbard, and his eyes were lifeless. It was also not as cunning and ruthless as the iron corpse scabbard.
"Fellow Daoist Chi, quickly block the iron corpse scabbard!" Seeing the brutality of the iron corpse scabbard, Wang Tuoguai and the others were shocked. The crippled man was also a mid-stage Jin Dan cultivator. Although he had not been in the mid-stage Jin Dan cultivator for a long time, he was easily defeated by the iron corpse scabbard and turned into an ordinary corpse scabbard. Even his primordial spirit was sucked away by the iron corpse scabbard. It was more terrifying than death.
Even a mid-stage Jin Dan cultivator was not a match for it. Among the people present, perhaps only Chi Yunsang had the strength to block it. In addition, with the rest of them supporting from the side, they might be able to deal with the iron corpse scabbard.
"You want Chi Yunsang to do it? It seems that these people have not woken up yet." Lu Xiaotian's eyes showed a trace of ridicule. He began to retreat. From the moment the iron corpse scabbard appeared and sucked the crippled man to death, Lu Xiaotian understood why Chi Yunsang had acted so abnormally before. The reason why Chi Yunsang did not care about them before breaking the restriction on the island was that these people were only valuable to Chi Yunsang after they arrived on the island. Therefore, after they arrived on the island, there were several dangers, especially when he and Zhao Nanxing were in danger, so Chi Yunsang helped them several times. Then Zhao Nanxing and Yu Xiao were accidentally killed by the thin little nun, so Chi Yunsang was very angry with the reduction of the number of people. He forced the remaining three people who could not escape in time to join this temporary team. This allowed the team to maintain a certain number of people.
As for Scarlet Cloud Mulberry's ultimate goal, Lu Xiaotian felt a chill run down his spine. He was afraid that Scarlet Cloud Mulberry would use their flesh and blood to feed the iron corpse scabbard! What a sinister plan, what a vicious scheme! Scarlet Cloud Mulberry had spent over a hundred years in the Misty Hall. Coupled with his strength, his familiarity with this place was far from what others could compare to. He had spent so much effort to send these cultivators here as food for the Iron Corpse Scabbard. His goal was definitely not ordinary. Thinking of the Array Master who died before him, his attainments in Array Formations might not be lower than his. He wondered if Scarlet Cloud Mulberry and the Iron Corpse Scabbard had killed him.
In any case, with the escape route blocked, it was impossible to escape through the original exit. Moreover, the realm-breaking formation would not be wrong in sensing strange restrictions. Scarlet Cloud Sang had been preparing for this for a long time, so how could he give these people a chance to escape? After all, Scarlet Cloud Sang was a cultivator in the late Jindan stage, so he had made sufficient preparations. Naturally, it would not be so easy for him to escape.
