"Elder Dagu! Martial Uncle Mo Fei! Take them down! " Seven Plume said angrily. At that moment, he no longer cared about his relationship with the Azure Wood Manor or the subsequent exploration of the Door to the 33 Skies. All he wanted to do was vent his anger.
"Seven Plume! I just encountered a perilous situation and barely escaped with my life. Starting a fight here is equivalent to suicide! "Granny Yin protected Yi Yun and Yue Yingsha as her face suffused a cold glint.
"Hmph, do you think I'll believe such a clumsy excuse?" Seven Plume gave a disdainful smile. "Granny Yin, I would have thought you were someone impressive if you had attacked directly. Now, you are trying to play tricks on me. What a joke. Let's attack together and take them down!"
"Haha! I couldn't ask for more! " A long howl sounded behind Seven Plume. The person who stood forward was Marquis Wu Yun. He was surprised that he was still alive. Nearly all the Immortal Rain Sect disciples from before had been wiped out, but Marquis Wu Yun was still alive.
He hated Yi Yun to the core. Now, he wanted to pull out Yi Yun's tendons and dig out his bones.
"Capture him alive. Don't kill him. I need that punk!" Seven Plume added. He was very interested in Yi Yun's array mystic techniques. He wanted to know how Yi Yun had managed to walk out of the Blood Desert. If he could obtain those secret techniques, it would be a huge opportunity for him.
"Courting death!"
Granny Yin was enraged. With someone blocking her path and two people with her, there was no way for her to charge out. But at that moment, Granny Yin suddenly felt an intense sense of danger.
"Behind! Black river! "
Yi Yun could clearly see that a thousand feet behind him, the ground had been torn apart! A rift valley was spreading out at a terrifying speed like a gigantic python. And beneath the valley was surging black river water!
After the river water flowed into the Door to the 33 Skies, it was very different from the entrance. It seemed to possess a life and consciousness that devoured everything it encountered!
The black river boiled like black lava. At that critical moment, Granny Yin did not even take a look. She bit the tip of her tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood essence. She did not hesitate to burn her blood essence, ignoring the fact that she did not have much lifespan left.
"Whew!"
Granny Yin transformed into a beam of light and vanished. And at that moment, the people from the Azure Wood Manor had forgotten to stop Granny Yin. They had also seen the gigantic rift that was rapidly spreading towards them, as well as the bubbling River Styx's water.
"What's that!?"
The sudden turn of events alarmed the Azure Wood Manor separatists. Although they were aware of the possible danger, no one would burn their blood essence for such uncertain danger.
It was this moment of hesitation —
"Pffft!!"
Black water surged out of the rift and transformed into a black torrent that swept towards the Azure Wood Manor separatists and Marquis Wu Yun!
This black torrent contained a terrifying power that made one's heart palpitate. Even a martial artist would tremble when facing it, unable to summon any strength.
"Ah!"
Seven Plume bore the brunt of the attack and was directly swallowed by the black torrent. He let out a heart-wrenching scream as he struggled madly in the black torrent!
However, all of this was meaningless. His flesh and blood were corroded by the black flood, and soon, he was reduced to a skeleton.
He reached out with a claw full of finger bones, grasping at the sky in vain. But in the end, his entire body was swallowed by the black torrent.
Upon seeing this scene, Marquis Wu Yun was scared out of his wits.
He frantically ran out, but compared to Granny Yin, he was one step slower. One step meant life and one step meant death. A portion of the black torrent split off and wrapped itself around Marquis Wu Yun's legs. Following that, Marquis Wu Yun was pulled back!
Marquis Wu Yun was also swept into the black torrent. He was much stronger than Seven Plume, but he did not create any miracles in the black torrent. The Yuan Qi shield he conjured was devoured by the black water. Following that, his flesh and blood were rapidly corroded, and in moments, he was reduced to a skeleton. He was dead!
If Marquis Wu Yun was in such a state, there was no need to mention the others. More than ten people from the Azure Wood Manor separatists, including the Immortal Rain Sect, had managed to walk out of the Blood Desert. However, in the terrifying black torrent, they were like tiny waves in a storm. They could not put up any resistance at all.
As for the black torrent, it seemed to have encountered a bunch of fresh food. It temporarily slowed down its pursuit of Yi Yun and Yue Yingsha. This allowed them to finally escape from danger.
Yi Yun had clearly seen the scene while being carried by Granny Yin. Even though he was usually composed, his back was drenched in cold sweat.
Granny Yin flew tens of kilometers in one go before she came to a stop. She was panting and her face was pale. Burning her blood essence was quite a burden for the elderly Granny Yin. Furthermore, she was highly stressed from being in a perilous situation. It made her look like she had aged a lot.
"Senior, what was that just now?"
Yi Yun had yet to recover from the shock. Yi Yun was extremely grateful to Granny Yin. If Granny Yin had not brought him along during his escape, he might not have been able to escape with his cultivation level. Furthermore, it was Granny Yin who first warned him of the danger.
"In the Azure Wood Manor's canon, it's called the River Styx Whirlpool. It's a land of peril among peril. There are many places in the Door to the 33 Skies, and every encounter is a tragedy."
Granny Yin poured out a pill from a porcelain bottle and swallowed it. Only then did she catch her breath. An abnormal blush flashed across her aged face.
"River Styx Whirlpool?" Yi Yun was puzzled. It did not look like an array formation formed by the worldly forces, so what could it be?
Furthermore, the eyes that were hidden in the night fog left Yi Yun shuddering.
"We might be in big trouble," said Granny Yin. Her face revealed a look of worry. "We have flown so far, yet we can't see the end of the night fog. We might have lost our way."
"Granny, I don't think we can continue. We have no idea what else is in the night fog. If we were to encounter another River Styx Whirlpool, it would bode ill for us," said Yue Yingsha.
Without a clear sense of direction, charging blindly was equivalent to suicide. It was best to wait for daybreak.
The day and night in the Door to the 33 Skies were extremely strange. The night was much longer than Yi Yun imagined. Furthermore, what was even more alarming was that in the night fog, there were thunderous sounds of metal scraping coming from afar. It sounded like the tightening of gigantic chains. Occasionally, it would be accompanied by a terrifying growl. The growl did not sound like it came from a beast, but on careful listening, it sounded like a human's voice.
"Could it be Master and company?"
Yi Yun thought to himself. Before the Apocalyptic Fumes erupted, Felicitous Rain Lord and company had already headed for the core region of the Azure Wood Great World. Now, it was likely that they had entered the Door to the 33 Skies, but it was unknown what they had encountered.
As for the others other than Felicitous Rain Lord and company, they were probably dead the moment they entered the Door to the 33 Skies …
"Oh, what's that?"
In the darkness, Yue Yingsha's sudden words interrupted Yi Yun's thoughts. He looked in the direction that Yue Yingsha was pointing and saw a black rock.
It was unknown how many rocks there were in the Door to the 33 Skies, but this rock was different …
