Due to the Essence Qi Beacon that had surged into the sky, there were about seventy to eighty warriors gathered around the Netherworld tree. Seeing that the Netherworld tree's fruits had been plucked, the group of people felt indignant about leaving. However, it did not seem meaningful for them to stay any longer.
Finally, Li Fire Divine Lord was the first to give up. Without a word, he turned and left. The spatial array he had set up with the combined efforts of so many people had been proven to be a joke. He had even lost two disciples and Wan Qing had been maimed right under his nose. He did not want to stay another fifteen minutes longer.
With Li Fire Divine Lord leaving, the people he brought with him left as well.
"Lord … Lord Li Fire, save … save me …"
Wan Qing struggled in pain as he watched Li Fire Divine Lord and company leave. He dragged his heavily injured body and crawled on the ground with great difficulty.
He had a bright future ahead of him. He would live a long and luxurious life, but it would all come to an end in this desolate land. Once he was abandoned, this place would be his grave.
The feeling left him in despair.
"Save me, Lord Li Fire. Please take me out. I will activate the jade token to leave this place. The family will treat my injuries …"
Wan Qing said with a trembling voice. However, people only cast pitying looks at him when they saw his wretched state.
His dantian had been completely minced and it was nearly impossible to treat him. Even if a huge price was paid, Wan Qing would probably be restored to a relatively good cripple. The Wan family would never do such a thing.
Furthermore, it was impossible for him to continue walking in the Divine Perish Hall in his current state. As for specially escorting Wan Qing out, that would be a joke.
Li Fire Divine Lord did not even pause in his footsteps as he continued forward. The disciples that followed him only looked at Wan Qing in pity and shook their heads. The warrior world was just that cruel. Sometimes, death was better than being maimed.
"Let's go as well," said Nun Annihilation. Nun Annihilation said. At that moment, the girl in the light yellow dress beside Nun Annihilation was still in a daze.
"Yu'er, why are you still in a daze?"
"Oh … Got it, Master." Only then did Bluejade snap out of her reverie. The scene of Yi Yun plucking the fruit and crippling Wan Qing left her unable to calm down. Thinking back to her request of Nun Annihilation to protect Yi Yun in exchange for him finding the Thousand Illusion Lotus for her, she had mixed feelings.
After Annihilation left, Xing Yu left as well. He had already decided to immediately report the news of Yi Yun obtaining the Netherworld fruit to the White Lunar Divine Empire the moment he left the Divine Perish Hall. Perhaps, there was still a chance of reaping some benefits.
It was not only Xing Yu. Many people had the same thoughts. Even if they could not obtain it, they did not want to see Yi Yun safe and sound. It was best if more people knew of such matters.
At that moment, Yi Yun had already teleported thousands of miles away.
Teleporting thousands of kilometers in the outside world would have been a piece of cake for Yi Yun. But in the Divine Perish Hall, this tiny bit of teleportation drained him of thirty percent of his Yuan Qi. The space here was just too stable.
Yi Yun did not stay there for long. He flew for hundreds of kilometers and changed directions several times before finally arriving on a desolate mountain.
The desolate mountain did not appear to have any signs of life. It was filled with decimation auras that formed a vortex that seemed capable of annihilating everything.
Yi Yun scanned the area with his psyche and determined that there were no opportunities in the area. It was purely a land of peril. Sinkhole warriors would not explore this area unless they had masochistic tendencies.
Yi Yun landed by the mountainside and used Mirage Snow as a tool to carve out a cave. He entered the cave and sealed the entrance. Then, he set up a concealment array formation. In this manner, Yi Yun continued carving out a cave that was several kilometers deep. In the middle of the mountain, he dug out a simple chamber.
Yi Yun sat cross-legged in the chamber as he took out the fruit and five leaves he had plucked from the Netherworld tree.
The Netherworld tree's entire body was a treasure. Yi Yun had only taken the fruit and five leaves. After all, it was a divine item born from the worldly laws. It had taken hundreds of millions of years to form. It would be a pity to take away its roots.
"Nomological fruit, Dao Enlightenment leaf …"
Yi Yun scrutinized the fruit and leaves. He could sense that they contained ancient nomological powers. It was as though the world's creation had compressed infinite time within them.
Since he had obtained this opportunity, the first thing Yi Yun wanted to do was convert the opportunity into his strength. He knew very well that he would become the target of public criticism the moment he left the Divine Perish Hall.
Yi Yun closed his eyes and regulated his breathing for a moment, adjusting himself to his optimal state. Then, he picked up a leaf and gently pasted it on his glabella.
Instantly, the leaf seemed to melt as it emitted a faint golden glow. Clear leaf veins imprinted themselves on Yi Yun's forehead …
Time passed without him realizing it. Yi Yun seemed to forget himself and everything. He was immersed in the dreamy river of time as he floated up and down …
It was as though he could see the leaf's nurturing, sprouting, and growth … It floated above the River of the Netherworld, experiencing countless epochs of time …
Warriors could kill a living being, destroy an item, or even shatter a world. All of these were inseparable from violence.
Only time could pass itself, reducing all things to dust in an extremely peaceful manner. It was silent from beginning to end. Time was the most special power of destruction.
After obtaining the Netherworld tree's fruit and leaves, Yi Yun felt like he had opened the door to a brand new world. His insights into time had undergone a qualitative leap. And all of this was thanks to his insights into the Major Destruction laws. It allowed him to understand everything without needing to start from scratch.
After an unknown period of time, the leaf turned to dust in between Yi Yun's brows. It scattered with the wind and vanished completely.
Yi Yun pondered over it for a long time. Finally, he slowly took out a second leaf and pasted it on his glabella once again …
Unknowingly, three months passed …
During this period of time, thousands of warriors had entered the Divine Perish Hall. However, more than eighty percent of them perished in the Divine Perish Hall!
As for a small number of warriors, they could not help but have thoughts of retreating because it was too dangerous and they could not find any opportunities. They wished to leave the Divine Perish Hall midway but even if they retraced their steps, they would not be able to find the Divine Perish Hall's exit.
They could only enter, but not exit!
Only to discover this a few months later, it was simply hair-raising!
They could not be certain that the Divine Perish Hall would never have an exit that led back the way they came. But to find an exit deep in the Divine Perish Hall was a path of certain death for them!
Many people felt despair. They lingered in the area where the Divine Perish Hall's inner entrance used to be, hesitating to proceed forward.
