True Lord Profound Purity had just succeeded in seizing the treasure. The crowd below had been noisy and restless.
But the moment those two auras descended, everything fell silent.
Ji Yuan desperately wanted to go out and see what was happening.
Unfortunately, he was trapped here and could not move at all.
As for sending out his Divine Sense, he certainly did not dare.
The Black-and-White Fiends were both great cultivators at the Nascent Soul Late Stage. Powerful as Ji Yuan's Divine Sense was, it had only reached the Nascent Soul Early Stage.

The Star-Treading Wheel's defensive Formation could withstand Old Devil Heavenly Fiend, a Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator. But could it withstand the combined assault of two Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators? Ji Yuan did not dare gamble on it.
He was even praying that the Black-and-White Fiends would not notice him inside the Star-Treading Wheel.

He swallowed drop after drop of Millennium Spirit Milk, yet fully refining the wheel
