Suddenly, a trace of terror appeared on Nan Shang's small face.
"Senior Brother Lin! Where did Shi Yuan go?"
Lin Ke and Zong Ya exchanged a glance. "He already left. Is something wrong?"
Nan Shang hurriedly said, "When my divine sense connected with his just now, I discovered that a fierce spirit was brewing within his formation."
"It was precisely the thing being nourished deep within those departed souls."
"That thing is extremely vicious, and it has already been nourished to the nascent soul middle stage."
"If it breaks through its bottleneck and accumulates enough strength to reach the nascent soul late stage, it will be able to devour all the departed souls."
"Once Shi Yuan makes it self-detonate, every cultivator in this Cloud Dragon Secret Realm will be killed in the explosion."
"Their divine souls will also be taken into the Myriad Spirits Unification Technique."
Zong Ya frowned at this, her expression dimming slightly. "Then how do we stop him?"
Nan Shang considered for a moment, seemingly recalling something, before finally saying, "If I remember correctly."
"That fierce spirit is nourished using the dead."
"As long as we stop him from continuing to harvest the dead, we can slow down the speed at which he nurtures that fierce spirit."
"Looking at the departed souls in his formation, there were all kinds of spirit beasts and spirit birds."
"They should all be Spirit Beings hunted within the Cloud Dragon Secret Realm."
"If we hunt down all the spirit insects in the Cloud Dragon Secret Realm, we will certainly attract their attention and draw them to us instead."
Lin Ke raised his eyebrows. "Sure. They're just pests born after the Dragon Cultivators perished anyway."
"There's no harm in killing them all."
After a moment's consideration, Zong Ya pointed out the flaw.
