Shen Luo paid no heed to the Ghost General's words. Looking at the surrounding yin-attributed spiritual materials, he raised a hand and sent out two streaks of blue light, swiftly gathering them.
Though these yin-attributed spiritual materials could not compare to the Soul Refining Flower, they were still rare treasures outside and could not be passed up.
Just then, black light flashed atop the hollow, and a figure enveloped in black qi fell out of thin air.
Seeing Shen Luo gathering spiritual herbs, the black qi swirling around the figure paused, as though the figure had not expected anyone to be here.
Shen Luo was likewise startled by the sudden appearance of the black figure and stopped gathering the herbs.
A powerful aura surged from this person. He was actually a True Immortal, though his aura was rather strange, simultaneously giving off fluctuations of both Magic Power and demonic qi.
The black figure's gaze quickly shifted away from Shen Luo and toward the Magic Formation and stone stele in the center of the hollow, his expression changing drastically.
"Were you the one who broke open the formation eye here and took the demonic artifact sealed within?" The black figure abruptly looked at Shen Luo again.
Though separated by black qi, Shen Luo could still sense two icy gazes like steel awls.
"That's right. I did take the thing inside. Who might you be, and what do you want?" After a brief pause, Shen Luo did not deny it and admitted it outright.
With his current strength, even if the other party were at the Late True Immortal Stage, he would not be the least bit afraid.
"It is good that you admit it. Hand over the demonic artifact, then sever one of your arms. I may consider sparing your life."
