"That …" Shuo Bing was a bit speechless. She'd gone to great lengths to find this immortal's abode, but he'd just casually come in. Comparisons were odious. Still, she didn't dare to be careless. "Senior, please know that this is indeed a true immortal's abode."
"Mm, mm …" The young immortal smiled. "Tell me more about this abode."
When Shuo Bing finished, the young immortal stroked his chin as if in deep thought. Then he looked ahead. "Little girl, since we've met, it must be fate. Are you interested in traveling with me?"
If it were Xiao Hua, he might've been overjoyed and offered all sorts of flattery. Unfortunately, Shuo Bing's face turned cold when she heard the word "fate." She bowed. "This junior's strength is too shallow. I'm afraid I'll delay senior's important matters. I dare not travel with senior."
"Oh?" Shuo Bing's answer was beyond the young immortal's expectations. He looked at her with interest and smiled. "Are you sure?"
"Yes, this junior is sure!" Shuo Bing replied neither haughtily nor humbly.
"Good!" A strange sound arose around the young immortal. It seemed to be the sound of space vibrating. "I'm leaving. Take care."
"Farewell, senior!" Shuo Bing hurriedly bowed and prepared to leave.
The young immortal's body was already distorted, but his voice still fell into Shuo Bing's ears. "I don't owe you anything. There's a pack of Spirit-Engulfing Beasts in front of you. With your strength, you won't be able to get past them. Follow me to the exit of the great formation. Whether or not you can get out will depend on your luck!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the young Immortal flew away arrogantly.
Shuo Bing bit her lip and tightened her grip on Rou Xi. In the end, she gave up on her own direction and flew in the direction the young immortal had flown.
Perhaps it was the right direction, or perhaps it was because the young immortal had killed all the Spirit-Engulfing Beasts along the way, but Shuo Bing didn't encounter any danger in the time it took to finish a meal. Shuo Bing watched as several Spirit-Engulfing Beasts suddenly flew out from between the rocks. Shuo Bing was shocked and hurriedly urged Ruoxi to fight back. However, she quickly turned around and flew away. When the Spirit-Engulfing Beasts saw Shuo Bing, they were like flies that saw meat. He then flew across the stream and chased after them.
Shuo Bing looked around as she fled. Since there were Spirit-Engulfing Beasts after crossing the stream, the young immortal must not have crossed the stream. This meant that the exit of the formation was not far away.
Beside the stream, there were undulating hills, low shrubs, and some towering ancient trees. Seeing these ancient trees, Shuo Bing's eyes lit up. She tried her best to fly in. Anyone would know that these ancient trees were the exit of the formation.
However, when Shuo Bing flew in, the ancient tree did not change at all. Even the leaves did not sway!
"This …" Shuo Bing was dumbfounded. She wanted to fly out again, but what chance did she have? Several Spirit-Engulfing Beasts had already surrounded Gu Mu. They opened their bloody mouths, and the claws on their chests, which were specially designed to kill spirit bodies, reached out. Shuo Bing could almost feel the terror of a Nascent Soul.
"If that's the case, then … let's go all out!" Shuo Bing hesitated for a moment, then narrowed her eyes. She looked at the closest Spirit-Engulfing Beast and growled, "Even if I die, I will drag it down with me!"
Shuo Bing's body flashed with silver light, revealing the immortal mark hidden between her eyebrows. "Wuwuwuwu" Wind howled in the night sky. Immortal spiritual energy crazily rushed into the immortal mark. Shadow after shadow emerged from the immortal mark and entered the immortal body. "Weng weng" The silver light around Shuo Bing was also dazzling. "Boom …" Shuo Xi shot out a green beam of light that streaked across the night sky towards the Spirit-Engulfing Beast!
When the Spirit-Engulfing Beast saw the green beam of light, it quickly opened its mouth and spat out a red cloud in front of the Spirit-Engulfing Beast. The beam of light shattered the cloud and hit the Spirit-Engulfing Beast's body.
"Roar …" The Spirit-Engulfing Beast let out a miserable cry. Its body was pierced by the green beam of light, and blood flowed out from the huge hole!
Shuo Bing was overjoyed. Just as she was about to turn around and kill the other Spirit-Engulfing Beast, she suddenly felt the Shuo Xi sink. Her immortal energy was actually being devoured. When she looked again, she saw that the Shuo Xi was already dyed red. The red color was like a poisonous snake that was rapidly spreading across the Shuo Xi!
"Not good!" Shuo Bing was shocked. Her gaze swept across the red clouds in the sky. She knew that it was caused by her Shuo Xi piercing through the clouds.
"Jiji …" Behind Shuo Bing, another Spirit-Engulfing Beast was already closing in. Shuo Bing didn't dare to use the Shuo Xi anymore. She helplessly sighed in her heart and spread her hands. "Boom!" Two wings appeared under her armpits. The moment the wings appeared, a faint black gas appeared in the surrounding space. Black lines also began to swim around Shuo Bing's jade-like face.
"Sigh, I … I know that using the demon spirit will bring me closer to the cliff. But at this point, is there any other way?" Despair appeared on Shuo Bing's jade-like face. "Drinking poison to quench one's thirst is nothing more than this!"
Shuo Bing used the demon spirit for the third time. She spread her wings and her hands immediately emitted a black light. With a flap of her wings, Shuo Bing's body drew a strange arc in the air like lightning. She very cleverly avoided the Spirit-Engulfing Beast's killing blow and ruthlessly stabbed her left hand into the beast's body!
"Puff …" With a soft sound, the beast's body that could only be destroyed by an immortal weapon was easily pierced through by Shuo Bing!
"Roar!" The Spirit-Engulfing Beast screamed. Its bloody heart was actually dug out by Shuo Bing!
Looking at the beating heart, Shuo Bing's heart actually had the desire to eat it alive. She quickly shook her head in fear, trying to throw away this thought that didn't belong to her. It was also at this moment that two loud booms sounded. The red clouds from the other two Spirit-Engulfing Beasts had already hit Shuo Bing's body!
"Puff …" Shuo Bing spat out a mouthful of silver blood. Her wings had already retracted back into her body. Shuo Bing staggered a few steps in the air and fell to the ground with a thud!
"Ji ji …" The two Spirit-Engulfing Beasts roared and pounced towards Shuo Bing.
Above Shuo Bing's head, silver light shone brightly. The previously crystal clear Yuanying, now covered in black silk, flew out with the Ruoxi in her hand. As soon as the Yuanying appeared, she immediately screamed, "If we die, we die together!"
As she spoke, the Yuanying's body shone with silver light. The Ruoxi immortal weapon shot out a green beam of light towards the two Spirit-Engulfing Beasts! The Yuanying desperately flew out, but she could only block one Spirit-Engulfing Beast. Now that Shuo Bing was injured, how could she deal with the other Spirit-Engulfing Beast? The fourth Spirit-Engulfing Beast's claws had already reached into the void. Above Shuo Bing's head, ripples appeared like waves. In the next moment, the Spirit-Engulfing Beast's claws were about to tear through Shuo Bing's head!
At this critical moment, where the green beam of light came from, a buzzing sound could be heard. The ancient trees around Shuo Bing emitted a blue light at the same time. This light immediately pushed the two Spirit-Engulfing Beasts out of the range of the trees! Even the Ruoxi's green beam of light disappeared when it hit the blue light.
"This …" Shuo Bing didn't understand what was going on. She looked around blankly. At this moment, the blue light had already condensed and fell towards the Yuanying beside her!
Shuo Bing's Yuanying was wearing an immortal armor. She frowned as she watched the light fall. She wanted to do something, but against the light that could even send the Spirit-Engulfing Beasts flying, she was powerless!
"Whoosh!" The blue light passed through Shuo Bing's Yuanying and landed on the ground without any change. "Boom!" The ground began to rumble. The solid ground began to distort under the blue light. A whirlpool gradually formed, and within the whirlpool was darkness!
Shuo Bing tried to fly up and retrieve her Yuanying, but the whirlpool's suction force was too strong. It was like a giant hand was grabbing onto her Yuanying. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't retrieve her Yuanying!
"This … this is a Spirit-Engulfing Black Hole!" Suddenly, Shuo Bing's Yuanying shouted.
Shuo Bing was shocked and quickly asked, "How … how did you know?"
Shuo Bing's Yuanying smiled. The black patterns on her face were very mysterious. She said, "Since it's the second layer of the formation, how could it be so easy to pass through?"
The Yuanying's answer was naturally irrelevant, but Shuo Bing's heart was cold. She understood what the Yuanying meant. She faintly replied, "If that's the case, then be careful!"
"Let's be careful together!" The Yuanying narrowed her eyes and the wings under her arms slowly spread out. The faint black gas emitted by the wings was very beautiful in Shuo Bing's eyes!
"Roar …" The Spirit-Engulfing Black Hole let out a beast-like roar. The suction force was so strong that Shuo Bing, who was a Leaky Immortal, couldn't resist it! Shuo Bing and her Yuanying only managed to use the Ruoxi to protect themselves before they were swallowed by the Spirit-Engulfing Black Hole.
She didn't know how much time had passed, but it felt like every moment was a lifetime of torture. Her memory was already a luxury. She could only grit her teeth and pour her immortal energy into the immortal artifact, Ruoxi, to protect herself with this immortal artifact. Tearing, pain, impact, darkness, dark green, these were the only things Shuo Bing could keep in her memories!
"Swoosh …" In the dark green, a ray of white light flashed. The white light seemed to split the sky and earth, tearing the darkness apart. All the torture on Shuo Bing and her Yuanying disappeared the moment the white light appeared!
"Phew …" Shuo Bing let out a long breath. She knew that she had finally passed through the second layer of the Seven Spirit Mountains!
Without checking the damage to her immortal body, Shuo Bing hurriedly withdrew her Yuanying. Just as the Yuanying entered her body, the darkness completely disappeared. Shuo Bing was already standing in a holy space.
However, before Shuo Bing could take a look at the situation in this space, the scene not far away made her dumbstruck!
