More and more people gathered outside the Butterfly Valley. They were scattered all over the place, and it was estimated that there were thousands of them. Some were alone, some were in groups of three to five, and some were in groups of more than ten.
Niu Youdao who had been observing his surroundings from time to time raised his head to look up at the sky. If the Thousand Beasts Clan's calculations were correct, he guessed that the time for the opening of the Butterfly Dream Dimension was nearing and he asked casually. "Judging from the flow of people in the Thousand Beast City, the number of people coming here to participate in the Spirit Beast Meet should not be limited to just these few."
Guan Fangyi said, "The Butterfly Dream Dimension is actually not that interesting. Only people who have never been here would want to experience it. For people like you who have seen it before, there is no point for you to come here."
She had been here a long time ago and had told Niu Youdao about it.
She did not want to go in again, but if Niu Youdao wanted to go in, she would just accompany him.
Speaking of this, Niu Youdao could not help but look at Yun Ji and asked, "Has Senior not been here before?"
Yun Ji had her own thoughts and did not tell the truth. "No."
Niu Youdao did not ask any more questions. He stood there with his sword in his hand, but his mind was racing. This was the first time this Hill Chieftain had come to the Butterfly Valley?
His gaze swept across the surroundings, but he still did not see Hou Qingtian. He was even more puzzled. Could it be that the snake demon did not have any subordinates accompanying him?
Yuan Gang, who was standing at the side, glanced at the left side of the mountain. It was a little far away and he could not see it clearly, but he felt that the three disciples of the Thousand Beasts Sect were paying attention to him.
"I'm bored, I'm going to take a walk." Yuan Gang said and walked away, carrying the Three Howling Blades on his back.
Guan Fangyi looked at Niu Youdao, but did not see Niu Youdao saying anything, his face expressionless.
Yuan Gang was a man of few words and did not show much emotion, so she could not understand him. But when Yuan Gang opened his mouth and Niu Youdao did not respond, she immediately noticed that the two men knew each other very well. She was beginning to understand the tacit understanding between the two of them and realized that there might be a problem. She could not help but pay attention to Yuan Gang's movements.
Zhang Xuan had been paying close attention to Yuan Gang, but he did not see him doing anything at all. He was just strolling around the mountain, occasionally chatting with some cultivators. Zhang Xuan had no idea what he was doing.
After strolling around for a while, he returned to stand beside Niu Youdao. Niu Youdao glanced at him and Yuan Gang subtly nodded his head in response.
After that, Yuan Gang's gaze turned towards the mountainside. Niu Youdao followed his gaze and looked over. After looking for a while, he shifted his gaze away. With a carefree expression, his middle finger on the sword hilt moved up and down a few times. Then, he placed both his palms on the sword hilt and stopped moving.
Guan Fangyi, who was paying attention to their reactions, also looked in the direction where they were looking. There were only disciples of the Wan Shou Sect there, what were they doing?
Yun Ji's gaze also occasionally glanced at Yuan Gang. She did not know why, but after coming here, she felt that there was some kind of aura that was suppressing her, causing her to panic. She could not help but feel a strong sense of fear in her heart.
After standing there for a while, she confirmed that the aura was coming from Yuan Gang's body. It was an aura that made her soul tremble. It was as if there was something that came from the distant ancient times, and could trample her into meat paste at any time.
When the wind was blowing towards them, the aura enveloped her, causing her heart to palpitate even more. She even felt that her hands and feet were weak, and had a feeling that she wanted to kneel down.
She knew that if she was not a Demon Cultivator with spiritual wisdom, and had the ability to think and control her own actions, she might really kneel down at this man's feet.
If she were to fight under the cover of this aura, she reckoned that her strength would be greatly reduced.
This was the first time she had such a feeling of fear. Her heart was inexplicably bewildered. She did not know what was going on with this man, to actually be able to produce such a strong sense of suppression on her …
Buzz! The crowd waiting in the mountains suddenly all stirred. They all felt the ground tremble slightly, as if an earthquake had occurred. However, there was no wind, and the air seemed to have frozen. Birds cried out in alarm and flew far away.
The gazes of the crowd in the mountains turned towards the space between the two mountains that stood like swords. They saw that the mist that lingered between the mountains gradually rose and fell, surging, as if there was some colossal creature stirring within. However, the crowd's transcendence vision could not see any physical thing causing trouble.
Very soon, everyone's gazes turned towards the sky one after another. The sunlight was dazzling, and they all narrowed their eyes, staring at the sun in the sky.
Yuan Gang's gaze only took a glance at the sky, and then he suddenly looked around vigilantly.
A flaw appeared in the sun that hung in the sky, and it was gradually swallowed up by a black shadow that came out of nowhere. The area of the black shadow gradually expanded.
As time passed, the world gradually fell into darkness, causing all who looked up to feel that they were so insignificant.
A black ball occupied the sun in the middle, and it was like an evil eye staring at all living beings in the distant sky. The pitch-black eye was surrounded by a dazzling circle of gold.
At this moment, a spot of light appeared in the stirring clouds between the two mountains. The spot of light seemed to have shot out from a distant void, and it rapidly grew in size, like a spider web or a crystal ball that was set up between the two mountains.
The light screen swayed between the two mountains like ripples. In the world that had been swallowed by darkness, it was exceptionally eye-catching, magnificent and illusory.
This scene caused even Yuan Gang, who was calmly observing his surroundings, to be surprised. In his words, it did not make any scientific sense.
Such a miraculous scene had truly broadened Niu Youdao's horizons. He felt that this trip had not been in vain, and he could not help but mutter to himself with a sigh, "There are indeed all sorts of strange things in the world!"
Guan Fangyi replied, "The entrance to the Butterfly Illusion World has opened!"
One side of the golden circle in the sky disappeared, and the other side became thicker. The black shadow that covered the sun was clearly moving away.
As the light between the heavens and the earth gradually expanded, the light curtain between the two mountains gradually lost its magnificent color, and became an ordinary water curtain without any special spirit, swaying.
When the black shadow that covered the sun completely disappeared from the sky, the world seemed to have woken up from a dream. Everyone felt like they had just woken up from a long dream. Many of the people who had never seen such a scene before heaved a sigh of relief. They were worried that the world would be plunged into darkness forever.
In the sky, there were more than a hundred large flying beasts carrying people on their backs.
Suddenly, a small group of Wan Shou Clan's disciples who were guarding outside the light screen rushed into the light screen and disappeared into thin air.
After a while, someone came out from the inside to inform them that they could enter the light screen, and a large number of Wan Shou Clan's disciples rushed into the light screen.
After that, the guests who were waiting outside the Butterfly Valley also started to enter the light screen, and one after another, they disappeared into the water screen.
The crowd gathered at the water screen between the two mountains, and they entered one after another. Some of them were obviously hesitant before they entered.
Niu Youdao looked at Yuan Gang and asked, "Do you want to wait outside?" He was worried that it was not safe inside.
Yuan Gang said, "I want to take a look."
Niu Youdao did not force him, he raised his hand and signaled Yuan Gang to follow the crowd and walked towards the direction of the Butterfly Valley.
When they reached the rippling water screen, they realized that the surface area of the water screen was about ten square feet. The entrance to the Butterfly Illusion World was quite big, and it could accommodate many people at the same time.
Tang Yi waved her hand, and Su Po and a few other disciples rushed ahead and disappeared into the water screen. They were suspected of guarding the entrance, but Niu Youdao might not appreciate it.
Yun Ji rushed in after them, and Yuan Gang followed closely behind.
Niu Youdao looked left and right, and his gaze swept past Chao Shenghuai who was guarding the entrance, and he did not seem to stop.
Niu Youdao also stepped into the water screen with his Heavenly Energy Shield.
There was a strong resistance in the water screen, and it was obvious that ordinary people would not be able to enter.
Once the resistance was broken, it was like stepping into another world. It was a pitch-black world, and the water screen seemed to separate the night from the day.
The sky was filled with stars, and the galaxy was dazzling and enchanting.
It was dark, but the land in the distance was like the stars in the night sky, shining brightly everywhere.
"Hurry up, don't block the people behind us."
The people who entered for the first time could not help but stop and look around in surprise. The disciples of the Wan Shou Clan who were guarding the entrance kept reminding them.
Niu Youdao and the others who entered one after another immediately moved away from the entrance, so that they would not be bumped into by the people behind them.
Many of the people who entered for the first time were like them, and looked around for the time being.
There was no wind in the Illusion World, and it was dead silent. It was filled with an indescribable fragrance that made people feel sick.
Niu Youdao looked down at the black grass on the ground, which was also the source of the unpleasant fragrance.
Although it was his first time entering the Butterfly's Illusion World, it was also his first time seeing this grass. However, he had seen the description of the Butterfly's Illusion World in the Records of the Shang Qing Dynasty. This grass was called Dispel Light, and it grew in the darkness, and it emitted a strange fragrance that could kill other plants. It was transplanted here from the outside world by the Wan Shou Clan.
There was a reason for transplanting this grass. This was a dark world, but the plants that grew here could basically emit light, and the Dispel Light could restrain the plants here. It was said that this place used to be full of glowing plants, but now the glowing plants were all killed by the Dispel Light.
The transplanting of this grass was not to destroy the glowing plants, but to deal with the countless butterfly rakshasa in this world. They were the masters of this world, and they were a type of butterfly demon that could fly freely in this world. This demon repelled all living beings from the outside world, and it killed every living thing it saw, including the cultivators who entered this world.
This was how the Butterfly's Illusion World got its name.
The Dispel Light Grass's fragrance could restrain the butterfly rakshasa. The rakshasa couldn't stand the fragrance, and they would stay far away from it.
Therefore, this place was both safe and dangerous. As long as one stayed in the darkness where the Dispel Light Grass grew, one would be safe. However, once one stepped into the area where the glowing plants grew, it would be very dangerous. One would be surrounded by the endless butterfly rakshasa. These monsters were very powerful, and they could fly nimbly, making them very difficult to deal with.
Because of this, the few secret realms left behind by Shang Song during the Wu Dynasty were all occupied by the Great Masters, except for the Butterfly's Illusion World, which was left to others to manage.
Currently, it was managed by the Wan Shou Clan, and the Dispel Light Grass in front of him was basically transplanted by the Wan Shou Clan.
However, until now, the area where the Dispel Light Grass was transplanted was still small compared to the vast Butterfly's Illusion World, and it couldn't take over the entire Butterfly's Illusion World. Since the Dispel Light Grass couldn't be taken over, it meant that the people from the outside world couldn't take over this place. The Butterfly's Illusion World was filled with too many unknown areas for the people from the outside world.
The reason was simple.
