Outside the Crescent Mountain Castle, a group of six loose cultivators, five Soul Formation cultivators, and one Yuanying cultivator hurriedly left the city. They boarded a medium-sized battleship and headed towards the depths of the wilderness.
Needless to say, these were Xiang Donghui's group from Taiqing Pavilion's Discipline Department who came in disguise. This time, under Yi Tian's guidance, the six-man team locked onto the position early in the morning and did not hesitate to drive the battleship at full speed towards the Soul Suppressing Den.
But what they didn't know was that less than an hour after they left the Crescent Mountain Castle, the teleportation hall was temporarily mobilized. Several flashes of light came from the depths of the hall and ten fully armed Feiyu Kenshū Sect disciples walked out. Five of them were Soul Formation cultivators, and the leader was the number one Soul Formation cultivator in the Feiyu Kenshū Sect, Jian Shaoqing.
Beside him was his assistant, Duan Yi, and a cultivator in his forties. If Yi Tian was here, he would recognize him as the head of the Murong family, Murong Longcheng.
Jian Shaoqing turned around and asked, "Are you sure Xiang Donghui's group from the Taiqing Pavilion arrived here first?"
"I'm sure." Duan Yi replied, "There are six of them, and I know Xiang Donghui. And that Yi Tian, we've known each other for a long time. His spirit pressure is the strangest, but it attracted my attention. "
"It seems that your plan to ambush Murong Zhenghong didn't work and instead aroused their fighting spirit," Jian Shaoqing joked as he walked.
"Yes and no." Murong Longcheng replied, "I think the problem is with this Yi Tian. He must have hidden some important information."
Hearing this, Duan Yi hurriedly echoed, "What Brother Long Cheng said is true. Among so many people, the one I can't see through the most is him. Also, I'm sure that compared to Chi Wuji from the Lihuo Palace, I don't want to be his enemy. "
Jian Shaoqing paused for a moment, then hid the shock in his eyes and asked, "Who are the other four?"
Duan Yi couldn't help but smile. He secretly transmitted his voice, "Your sweetheart, Qing Lianyun, is also inside. I'm very familiar with her spiritual pressure. The other two were Gong Teng and Deng Ru, the top cultivators in the Huashen Realm in the Taiqing Pavilion. It was normal for something to happen when such a team came to the Crescent Mountain Castle. As for the last one, he's a late-stage Yuanying cultivator. I really don't understand why he's a burden. "
Jian Shaoqing glared fiercely at Duan Yi, but he said, "In the future, make your reports simple and concise. Cut the crap. Xiang Donghui wouldn't do anything pointless. That Yuanying cultivator might be one of the key points. "
"Got it. Your boss will listen to you." Duan Yi waved his hand, but there was still a hint of playfulness in his eyes.
When they walked out of the teleportation hall, there were already people from the Crescent Mountain Castle waiting for them. The person at the front handed a jade slip to Duan Yi.
After he opened the jade slip and scanned it with his divine sense, he turned around and said, "That's right. Murong Zhenghong's group left half a day earlier than us. Xiang Donghui's group should be at least six to eight hours later."
"Our time is very tight. If I'm not wrong, Xiang Donghui and the others must have locked onto Murong Zhenghong before daring to chase after him," Jian Shaoqing said with a solemn expression. "We have no way of locking onto their whereabouts."
"Don't worry about this. I've already notified the guards of the Crescent Mountain Castle to keep a close eye on them. Even if we lose track of them, they won't go in the wrong direction. It's only a matter of time before we catch up. "Duan Yi said.
"Then why don't we act quickly? I want to know what they're up to. The Devilfiend Nascent Pill is related to the safety of the Spirit Realm. Master has already said that the Grand Ascension Stage cultivators of the three sects have all given it to Fu Zhao. This matter must be nipped in the bud at any cost. If necessary, the sects will send high-grade cultivators to help. "Jian Shaoqing said with a murderous expression," How can we let those people from the Taiqing Pavilion monopolize such a great achievement? "
A moment later, Jian Shaoqing led the group to board the Crescent Mountain Castle's Sky-Patrolling Warship and set off towards the depths of the wilderness. The direction they were heading in was similar to the direction Yi Tian and the others had left.
After leaving the Crescent Mountain Castle, the group from the Taiqing Pavilion sped towards the Soul Subduing Devil Cave. In the main warehouse, the six of them sat around a conference table while Yi Tian listed out the details of the situation in the Soul Subduing Devil Cave.
Last time, they were only able to escape by luck. If it weren't for Hua Yuxin clearing the way, they wouldn't have been able to escape unscathed from the cave where the Crystal Powder Butterflies gathered.
This time, they had more people than before, but the most troublesome person was still Chao Yi, who was on the second floor. After his soul escaped, he had used a devilish secret technique to hide in his flesh and devil core. After so many years, no one knew how much his soul had recovered.
Yi Tian sat at the conference table and handed a jade slip to Xiang Donghui for everyone to take a look at. Aside from Qing Lianyun, everyone else's expressions became very unsightly. The two people they had brought with them were both late-Deity Transformation Stage cultivators. Gong Teng was a pill refiner while Deng Ru was a combat cultivator. They were the main forces of the Discipline Department.
It was reasonable to say that people with their experience should be more knowledgeable than ordinary people. However, when they saw the contents of the jade slip, they felt their scalps go numb. After a while, Deng Ru asked, "Junior Martial Brother Yi, according to what you said, the most troublesome person in the Soul Subduing Devil Cave is still Devil Soul Chao Yi. However, he's on the second floor. As long as we don't provoke him, we should be fine, right?"
"Not necessarily." Yi Tian shook his head and said, "As far as I know, there are at least three paths that lead to the second floor of the Soul Subduing Devil Cave. The path we're taking is the one led by the Crystal Powder Butterflies."
"Speaking of Crystal Powder Butterflies, I wonder if Junior Martial Brother Yi has a good plan to deal with them." Gong Teng frowned and said, "As far as I know, these demonic butterflies are not easy to deal with. Furthermore, there are many of them and they reproduce quickly in the cave. Perhaps we'll have to face more of them this time. "
Qing Lianyun interrupted, "Since Junior Martial Brother Yi has brought his concubine this time, you probably have a plan to deal with them, right?" After saying that, she glanced at Hua Yuxin, who was sitting beside Yi Tian. However, a strange look flashed across her eyes.
Perhaps it was due to a woman's intuition, but Hua Yulin's heart tightened for no reason. However, in front of Qing Lianyun, who was a Soul Formation cultivator, she didn't dare to act rashly. However, there was no doubt that the little girl's possessiveness was obvious. She gently reached out and touched Yi Tian's arm. She didn't say anything, but her strength made it seem like she was declaring her sovereignty.
Yi Tian knew what she was thinking. He looked at Qing Lianyun and said with a helpless expression, "Yuxin's Life Gu has an abnormal affinity with the Crystal Powder Butterflies. As long as we don't attack them, we won't provoke the Crystal Powder Butterflies."
"That's easy." Xiang Donghui sighed in relief and said, "Apart from the Crystal Powder Butterflies, there's only the second floor of the Devil Soul region. As long as we don't provoke Chao Yi, it won't be a big deal. What I'm afraid of is that Murong Zhenghong will hold back and risk everything to enter the second floor. "
"That Ancient Devil Chao Yi was able to possess the body of a Soul Formation cultivator last time. This time, he probably has the same ability. We have to consider this carefully." Qing Lianyun said at an inappropriate time.
