Yang Zhen had never heard of Evil Spirit Island, but judging from the name, it was clearly not a good place. Wasn't the little girl supposed to be cultivating? Why was she on Evil Spirit Island?
The Shameless Cat sidled up and asked curiously, "What exactly is Evil Spirit Island?"
Ye Zhiming took a deep breath and told Yang Zhen, the Shameless Cat, about what happened on Evil Spirit Island.
Upon hearing that such a being existed in the waters off the coast of the East Sea, Yang Zhen was immediately taken aback. He exchanged a surprised and uncertain glance with the Shameless Cat, and said at the same time, "That old ghost!"
Ye Zhiming was taken aback, and asked hesitantly, "Which old ghost?"
Hearing Ye Zhiming say that Hua Youyue was doing well, Yang Zhen felt relieved. Hua Youyue was such a talented and extraordinary woman that she wouldn't easily encounter danger. However, after hearing Ye Zhiming's account of the Evil Spirit Island and recalling the old ghost's dark green blood and violent intelligence, Yang Zhen became somewhat worried again.
On Evil Spirit Island, there is clearly Jueyin Sha Qi present. This kind of thing that can affect the minds of living beings is no joke. It may have already subtly influenced people's intelligence. The six-month period summarized by many cultivators on the coast of the East Sea may not be accurate.
Yang Zhen did not answer Ye Zhiming's question, but said in a deep voice, "Wait for me!"
After saying this, Yang Zhen ignored the bewildered Ye Zhiming, inscribed the control method of the Six Harmonies Killing Formation on a Jade Slip, and threw it along with more than a dozen storage rings to the people of the Shangyuan Sect, where it landed at Liu Ruoning's feet.
Liu Ruoning and the others trembled violently, looking at Yang Zhen in mid-air with surprise and joy. They hesitated to speak, and Liu Ruoning even wanted to fly over on her sword to find Yang Zhen and recognize him.
Yang Zhen waved his hand, stopping the Shangyuan Sect members, and said to Ye Zhiming, "Let's go!"
The two people and the cat disappeared outside White Cloud Mountain in the blink of an eye, leaving the Shangyuan Sect members looking at each other in bewilderment.
Gou Shengtian looked at the Jade Slip and more than a dozen storage rings at his feet, his breath coming in short gasps of excitement. Despite the turmoil within him, he managed to suppress his inner turmoil and said to Lu Chenghui, " Yang Zhen's actions will surely cause a huge uproar on the Youzhou Continent. The Shangyuan Sect's affairs on White Cloud Mountain can no longer be kept secret. How should we handle this?"
Lu Chenghui pondered for a long time before saying in a deep voice, "No need to do anything deliberate. Just do what you need to do during this time and observe how things develop."
No one can say for sure what kind of impact Yang Zhen's actions will have on the Youzhou Continent!
Those cultivators who were robbed by Yang Zhen naturally wouldn't speak well of Yang Zhen, but they had only themselves to blame, and the rest of the world wouldn't categorize Yang Zhen as a completely wicked person because of this one incident.
To put it bluntly, whether it's Flower Mountain Blessed Land, Earth Spring Grotto-Heaven, or those who were just watching the show, they all brought it upon themselves by walking headlong into the trap set by Yang Zhen.
If this were to spread, people would only say that Flower Mountain Blessed Land and Earth Spring Grotto-Heaven were bewitched, blinded by hatred and greed.
Yang Zhen possesses many valuable items; this isn't a secret known to just one or two people. Almost all cultivators of various levels along the East Sea coast are aware of it. But how can anyone who dares to provoke this scoundrel Yang Zhen Yang Zhen be prepared to be utterly humiliated or even lose their life?
Judging from his many experiences, Yang Zhen is not someone to be trifled with.
It's a miracle that this bastard doesn't cause trouble; the fact that someone still dares to mess with him is just asking for trouble.
In the killing formation at White Cloud Mountain, all eleven experts at the Spirit Wandering Realm perished. One of them somehow escaped the formation but became delirious, forgetting even who he was. He muttered a woman's name and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.
As a result, everyone developed a sense of dread towards White Cloud Mountain, not because of the barren place itself, but because of the killing formation that Yang Zhen had set up.
The situation escalated, causing a huge uproar in the eastern part of the Youzhou Continent, while Yang Zhen, the instigator, had already arrived above Evil Spirit Island.
A surge of Blood Qi enveloped the entire Evil Spirit Island. Although it wasn't particularly dense, it gave people a sense of subtle excitement.
Upon arriving on the island, Yang Zhen immediately discovered that this aura could actually affect the intelligence of primates in about three months, begin to erode their intelligence in five months, and possibly start to harm them in the sixth month.
This judgment was baseless; it was merely Yang Zhen's intuition, and Yang Zhen's intuition, especially regarding crises, was often very accurate.
No wonder the little girl only said she needed a month to cultivate on Evil Spirit Island; a month of cultivation on the outside world is equivalent to three months of cultivation.
Perhaps because of the presence of Jueyin Sha Qi here, the True Essence of Evil Spirit Island is extremely rich, much richer than any other True Essence of heaven and earth that Yang Zhen has ever seen.
No wonder so many cultivators risk their lives to come and cultivate on Evil Spirit Island, even though it is fraught with danger and almost impossible to survive.
"Where is the little girl?" Yang Zhen asked Ye Zhiming, looking up at him.
Ye Zhiming gave a wry smile and said, "Come with me!"
The two people and the cat headed northeast, and when they were almost at the seaside, they finally met Bai Xuan and the Water Moon Spirit Maiden.
Along the way Yang Zhen was amazed by the roars of giant beasts, the deafening roars of ferocious creatures, and the various savage birds and miasma.
Even the plants in this place are quite irritable, let alone the naturally ferocious and violent beasts.
This place was indeed strange, and the place Ye Zhiming brought Yang Zhen to was even more bizarre, as if the surrounding space had been shattered, with a strange turbulent current permeating everywhere.
Upon seeing Yang Zhen and Ye Zhiming arrive, Bai Xuan hurriedly went to greet them, saying, "You've finally arrived!"
Yang Zhen's heart skipped a beat. He looked around and asked, "Where's the little girl?"
Ye Zhiming's expression hardened, and he stared at Bai Xuan, saying, "I told you to keep an eye on Spirit Maiden Hua, why is she nowhere to be seen?"
A bitter look flashed across Bai Xuan's face as he said helplessly, "I have to keep an eye on things too. Didn't you notice I'm injured?"
Yang Zhen was taken aback, then nodded. No wonder he felt something was off about Bai Xuan earlier; it turned out he was already injured.
It looked as if an epic battle had taken place here. With Hua Youyue and Bai Xuan's strength, they couldn't possibly have caused such massive destruction, unless... something suddenly erupted.
Yang Zhen stared intently at a sinkhole not far from them and asked in a deep voice, "What exactly happened? Where is the little girl now?"
Ye Zhiming and Bai Xuan exchanged a glance, then Ye Zhiming sighed and said, " Bai Xuan, you tell me, what happened after I left?"
Bai Xuan nodded and said, "After Spirit Maiden Hua said she was going to cultivate, we asked her about it. We originally wanted to cultivate together to lay a good foundation for our journey on the Spirit Road, but who would have thought that Spirit Maiden Hua would actually come to this awful place, Evil Spirit Island."
At this point, Bai Xuan glanced at the sinkhole not far away and said with lingering fear:
"We were initially reluctant and didn't come. We even tried to persuade Spirit Maiden Hua, but she insisted on coming to Evil Spirit Island. It wasn't until Zhiming and I heard that someone had apparently triggered some kind of restriction, causing all the creatures on Evil Spirit Island to go mad, that we realized something was wrong and rushed here, but it was already too late."
Yang Zhen's eyes narrowed as he stared at Bai Xuan and asked, "What exactly happened?"
Bai Xuan hesitated, a bitter expression on his face.
" The Spirit Maiden Hua... seems to have encountered some problems during her cultivation!"
