However, before Lin Wuming could implement his plan, the male cultivator suddenly turned a corner and ran right into Lin Wuming.

Lin Wuming: "..."

The male cultivator. "..."

The two stared at each other for a moment. At that moment, Lin Wuming really wanted to bury his head in the ground and pretend that no one could see him!

The other person finally realized what was happening, and his brows furrowed immediately. "You're not a member of the Rakshasa Yaksha Gate, what are you doing here?!"

Seeing the other party's blustering but cowardly appearance, Lin Wuming felt helpless and thought to himself, "Brother, you yourself are being chased by the Rakshasa Yaksha Gate members, and you still have time to criticize me?"

Lin Wuming, who had originally planned to disguise himself and sneak into the Rakshasa Yaksha Gate during the chaos, was at a loss for words.

However, he could not remain silent for too long, after all, the Rakshasa Yaksha Gate members were still chasing this male cultivator!

"Fellow Daoist, I entered the Eternal Valley by accident and now I can't find my way back. I just saw some people here and came to take a look."

"Instead of worrying about me, you should worry about yourself first. Those who are pursuing you are almost here!"

After Lin Wuming finished speaking, he pointed behind the male cultivator and pretended to be calm.

Upon hearing this, the male cultivator seemed to only then remember the matter. He hurriedly turned his head to look and, after discovering that what Lin Wuming said was true, immediately became nervous.

In that moment, he couldn't care less about Lin Wuming's excuse and hurriedly said, "If you can help me lure those guys away, I'll help you leave Eternal Valley."

"You're probably from another Immortal Realm, unaware of the internal structure of our Eternal Valley. Leaving on your own will be difficult. Moreover, our Rakshasa Yaksha Gate doesn't welcome outsiders; even if you manage to find your way there, you won't get away with it!"

The male cultivator spoke rapidly, rattling off a string of words.

Lin Wuming looked at the male cultivator and was at a loss for words.

"I'm so sorry, I don't want to leave Eternal Valley, I want to enter Eternal Valley!" Lin Wuming shouted in his heart.

However, on the surface, Lin Wuming still put on a thoughtful expression.

"Make a decision quickly, I don't have time," the man from the Rakshasa Yaksha Gate urged impatiently.

Lin Wuming then said, "It's possible. I do have a way to help you shake off their pursuit, but you have to keep your word!"

Whether entering or leaving the Eternal Valley, having an insider from the Rakshasa Yaksha Gate would be much easier than venturing in alone, so Lin Wuming agreed.

"Of course!" the male monk hurriedly replied.

After receiving a response, Lin Wuming gently waved his hand and pointed at the male cultivator.

In a short while, Lin Wuming used his power to conjure up a figure that looked exactly like the male cultivator.

The male cultivator stared in utter disbelief at the scene before him.

The figure opposite him was exactly the same as himself; in terms of appearance alone, they were practically identical!

Lin Wuming manipulated the illusory figure he had conjured, and it ran off in another direction.

The Rakshasa Yaksha Gate members who were chasing the male cultivator did not hesitate upon seeing the figure and continued to run after him.

As for Lin Wuming and the male cultivator, they had already found a place to hide.

Watching such a large group of people run past him in such a grand manner, the male cultivator still felt a sense of disbelief.

"Alright, thank you for helping me shake off their pursuit. I'll take you away from Eternal Valley now!"

"The interior of Eternal Valley is extremely dangerous and should not be lingered in. I sense you've been here for quite some time; if you continue, you might alert the guardians within Eternal Valley."

The male cultivator spoke earnestly.

However, Lin Wuming shook his head. "There's no rush."

"Huh?!" Now it was the male cultivator's turn to be surprised, but he quickly came to his senses.

It seems that Lin Wuming was lying to me just now. A cultivator with his abilities would have an obvious purpose in coming to the Eternal Valley.

"I haven't found what I'm looking for yet. I only asked you to take me away from here, not right now," Lin Wuming said matter-of-factly.

The male cultivator snorted coldly upon hearing this, and was about to say, "Don't even think about letting me take you out!" when he noticed that Lin Wuming was making another move.

Lin Wuming waved his hand again, and an invisible cage directly imprisoned the male cultivator. Before he could react, the spell had already begun to run.

Judging from the skillful technique, it's clear that this move was prepared in advance!

The male cultivator who had just been thanking Lin Wuming: "..."

At this point, he had no way to break free of his restraints.

Furthermore, considering that the Rakshasa Yaksha Gate members possessed the ability to burrow underground, Lin Wuming even restricted the ground beneath the male cultivator's feet.

In other words, within this area, regardless of what method the male cultivator uses, he will not have any contact with the outside world.

This male cultivator could neither be seen nor heard by outsiders.

In an instant, Lin Wuming completely isolated the man from the outside world.

Male monk. "..."

He wanted to curse, but it was too late.

Who could have imagined that, having just escaped one sea of suffering, one would turn around and plunge into another hell!

Lin Wuming smiled, then seized an opportunity to infiltrate the Rakshasa Yaksha Gate.

Perhaps because of that male cultivator, there is now a lot of discussion surrounding the Rakshasa Yaksha Gate.

Through conversations with members of the Rakshasa Yaksha Gate, Lin Wuming learned that the Rakshasa Yaksha Gate's most important possession was stored in the deepest forbidden area of the entire sect.

And this "most important thing" obviously includes the Heaven-Mending Fragment.

However, what troubled Lin Wuming was that he needed the bloodline power of the Rakshasa Yaksha Gate to enter the forbidden area of Rakshasa Yaksha Gate.

It is said that after practicing the techniques of the Rakshasa Yaksha Gate, one's bloodline power will be altered to a certain extent.

Lin Wuming for a moment and immediately thought of the male cultivator he had just locked up.

Although capturing other disciples wouldn't be difficult for Lin Wuming, it would still involve some sacrifice.

But the male monk was completely different; he had escaped in the first place, so no one could have imagined that he would come back.
