Anomaly in the Dead Sea

Fenghuo ultimately refrained from taking action and instead moved away from the area. The head-like object also remained still, hanging behind him.

Not far from the wrecked ship on the other side, an old man stood in the air, looking at the ship with a grim expression.

"Damn it, how did this ship end up on the outskirts? This doesn't make sense!"

He recognized the ship. According to the records of their Tianquan Sect, it came from the Yaoguang Immortal Sect and was named Yaoguang. It crashed here during the great battle 20,000 years ago, and the entire Dead Sea was formed after that great battle.

Suddenly, black mist surged on the ship, and countless wisps of mist converged to form a figure that stood silently at the highest point of the bow, watching the old man.

Judging from the silhouette, it's a woman!

"Yaoqiong..."

The old man murmured something softly, then turned and left without hesitation, departing directly from the Dead Sea.

"Damn it, she still wants to come out. No, we have to stop her, or the entire Luo Heaven Sea will be in big trouble."

She had only broken free for about a day before, yet she caused a bloodbath and countless deaths on Tianxuan Island, so we absolutely cannot let her out this time.

After sending the message to all his fellow Nascent Soul, he went outside to guard the area.

Tianji Sea area.

Shen Ge glanced at the ten Golden Core cultivators following behind him, showing neither joy nor sorrow, but his escape speed did not slow down.

Because he was quite high-profile this time, he didn't go to the desolate sea area. He originally planned to use himself as bait. Everything was going smoothly, and he even killed ten people who wanted to kill him. But he didn't expect things to go wrong, and he was targeted by the Tianji Pavilion.

The ten people behind him were from the Tianji Pavilion, all of them at the Golden Core: five at the Early Golden Core Stage, four at the middle stage, and one at the late stage. But that wasn't the key point. The key point was that the people from the Tianji Pavilion were extremely skilled in puppetry and mechanical arts, as well as spirit insects. That was the reason why Shen Ge was in such a sorry state.

As he was running, Shen Ge suddenly spun around and landed. A mechanical bird flew by, its claws, wings, and beak all gleaming with black light, clearly coated with a deadly poison.

"Buzzing..."

A series of flapping sounds rang out, Shen Ge did not hesitate to hide inside the Mountain and River Cauldron, while a dense burst of Sword Qi erupted from his body.

A wasp no bigger than a fist crashed into the barrier. The wasp had golden wings, and its stinger gleamed with an eerie green light.

This is the Soul -Soul-Seizing Bee, ranked tenth on the Spirit Insect Ranking. Once stung, even the soul will feel pain, and there is no way to shield oneself from it.

Countless Sword Qi crashed into the swarm of wasps. After a series of metallic clangs, the boundless Sword Qi annihilated less than five hundred Soul-Seizing Bee. This number of casualties was nothing compared to the overall swarm.

With a grim face, Shen Ge suddenly accelerated and crashed out of the swarm of bees. Then, with a backhand slash, he unleashed a black and white Sword Qi that cleaved the entire swarm in two.

"Kid, why don't you just surrender obediently instead of running away?"

"As long as you obediently hand over the Ji Household's belongings, we guarantee we won't harm you."

"Also, hand over your Cultivation Method, or things will get complicated when we start searching your soul."

Shen Ge ignored them completely and kept running. It was only because there were more of them that he was able to turn the tables; if there were only three or five fewer people, he would have been able to fight his way back in no time.

Seeing Shen Ge speed up, the men behind him sneered, "A last-ditch effort to resist."

Deep in the Ice and Snow Plateau, Zi Nü stood atop a towering ice mountain, gazing into the deepest part of the landscape.

Could it be there?

Deep within, the three giants of the Ice and Snow Plateau frowned as they looked in the direction of Zi Nü.

"Brother Long, should we take action and stop that human?" The White Tiger King licked his lips, exuding a chilling Sha Qi.

Ao Long stared at that spot for a long time before finally looking away, saying dismissively, "Let's go, take our belongings and leave this place. Let's go to the sea and seek refuge with that old fish."

The White Tiger King's face showed a stunned expression, looking rather adorable. "Abandoning this formation?"

Bing Qing turned her head to look at the formation behind her, and with a wave of her hand, she unleashed a gust of wind that shattered the formation base into dust.

"Alright."

Ao Long smiled and said, "Black Bird Niao understands me best."

White Tiger King didn't react immediately. He stared blankly at the array base, now reduced to dust, for a moment before turning to glare fiercely at Bing Qing and roaring, "You destroyed that array? How are we supposed to leave this wretched place now that you've destroyed it?!"

As the White Tiger King roared, he prepared to attack, Ao Long Hu Xiao him impatiently and yelled, "Who are you yelling at? Tune yourself in front of me!"

The White Tiger King's imposing aura immediately weakened somewhat, but he still looked unwilling, as if he wouldn't give up until he got an explanation.

Bing Qing her eyes at him and turned her head away, looking like she didn't want to talk to an idiot.

That look made the White Tiger King feel humiliated, and he immediately turned fierce and said, "What do you mean? Don't think I can't do anything to you just because you're a bird!"

"Alright, you've lived all these years and you're only just becoming smart?" Ao Long said coldly, "Do you think we'll have a good life even if we go to the Heavenly Desolation Domain? Using this formation to teleport to the Heavenly Sword Sect is just like being delivered fish to their door. At best, we'll be slaves; at worst, we might just become their meal."

"Now that humanity has produced a Spirit Severing Realm expert, why not let them give it a try? Even if they don't completely break this formation, just opening a small gap will give us hope."

The White Tiger King was taken aback for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening. After a brief hesitation, he said with a look of resentment, "Then haven't we been working for nothing all these thousands of years?"

That's quite a unique way of thinking.

Ao Long was too lazy to explain. He looked at Bing Qing and said, "Black Bird Niao, have your men make arrangements and plunder all the resources of the Ice and Snow Plateau. We'll come back after those people succeed."

"I've heard that this Ice and Snow Plateau is just the tip of the iceberg; the outside world is also a vast expanse of ice and snow stretching for hundreds of thousands of miles. Having more resources will make things easier in the future."

Bing Qing nodded, then flew into the sky and transformed into a small Black Bird, disappearing into the vast ice and snow.

Ao Long turned and flew all the way to the edge of the array that isolated this area. Looking at the shimmering barrier, he sighed softly, "You all have to work hard. I've even lost my ability to retreat."

The White Tiger King, who was following him, was furious when he saw the barrier. He opened his mouth and spat out a stream of Geng Metal Sword Qi that struck the formation, but it was absorbed without leaving a trace, not even a Sword Qi.

"Damn it! Those sons of bitches..."

"Alright, they can't hear you cursing here. If you can get out of here, go and bite a few people from the Heavenly Sword Sect to death, then I'll consider you capable."

The White Tiger King's face stiffened, and he immediately lowered his head dejectedly. "Brother Long, that's not very nice of you. Did you have to expose my weaknesses when I was already angry?"
