“Are you sure, Senior Brother?” asked Shi Jiang in astonishment.

She still didn’t understand the senior before her.

He was just an inner sect disciple and a mere guardian of the Spirit Herb Garden. Why venture into the depths?

Soon she understood. There were rewards and achievements for this. She had heard that this senior was frequently summoned to the Law Enforcement Hall. Without achievements, it was very risky for him. He had managed to come out safely multiple times only due to his achievements.

He hadn’t achieved anything for a long time. He urgently needed some accomplishments. It was somewhat understandable.

But she didn’t know the details. She had only heard it from other disciples.

The sect was so vast and filled with many legendary figures. This particular individual had no connection with her, so there was no necessity to pay attention to him.

In the Cliff of Broken Hearts, she knew Han Ming and had been paying attention.

The opponent was strong. If they fought, it would be difficult to win.

She had wanted to meet this person before. Unfortunately, they were in seclusion.

“If I don’t come out for a long time, Junior Sister, you should take the others and leave. Clearing out the demons isn’t easy,” Jiang Hao said.

This made Shi Jiang and the others frown.

What was going on with him? Why would he care about them and urge them to leave quickly?

At that moment, Jiang Hao looked into the distance and observed the increase in demonic aura. Something was peculiar.

Perhaps the forest was the boundary of distortion.

“Do not enter the forest. If you see anything, quickly evacuate,” Jiang Hao said.

Since he had brought them in, it was only fitting for him to instruct them.

After they nodded, Jiang Hao rode his sword into the depths. Although he didn’t know what was inside, the danger was certain.

Watching Jiang Hao leave, Tan Baiyu was somewhat puzzled. “Why is the senior doing this?”

“I’ve heard that this senior practices the Blood Wish Path. I wonder if it’s related,” Qian Dongjie said.

“I think it might have to do with achievements,” Wen Feng said.

Regardless of the reason, they couldn’t go deeper.

After all, this senior hadn’t led them into peril, which was good.

“Let’s begin preparations. We hunt demons without entering the forest,” Shi Jiang said.

The others didn’t object. As for whether Jiang Hao would return alive, they weren’t certain, yet they didn’t dwell on it.

Doing what needed to be done and keeping an escape route was the most crucial thing right now.

Talent and cultivation were all reliant on staying alive.

Once dead, even if you had outstanding cultivation and talent, they would be of no use whatsoever.

Death meant death.

At the Bright Moon Sect, the stars swirled into an endless ocean at the Star Platform.

A figure manifested within the sea of stars but disappeared in an instant.

Soon after, crackling sounds echoed from the boundless stars.

Boom!

A tremendous explosion shook everything.

The night turned into day, and the Ancient One’s figure emerged from it. He had tried to come out but couldn’t.

Now, he seemed somewhat weary.

He sat cross-legged and waited.

With such a significant event occurring here, it would naturally attract the sect’s attention.

Sure enough. figures aDDeared from afar.

“What happened?” asked a middle-aged man.

The Ancient One sighed as he looked at them.

At the foot of the mountain, Xu Bai looked up and sighed. “It seems there’s no good news. I wonder how the sect will respond.”

The Earth Extreme Silent Pearl was indeed beginning to affect the southern region.

The Bright Moon Sect held a meeting. What was discussed there was unknown to others, but the sect’s treasure had been activated.

Some seniors who had been in seclusion also came out.

All this happened quietly. No one would have known about the sect’s actions if they hadn’t paid close attention.

The Sect Master of the Bright Moon Sect left the sect and went to the Clear Sky School.

A magical artifact connected with the Astronomical Academy and the Mountain Sea Sword Sect in the north.

A plan known only to a very few was unfolding.

At that moment, Xu Bai seemed to understand a bit why there were no immortal sects in the south.

The east, west, and north surrounded the south.

It seemed like they were waiting for something.

In the South, inside a vast cave, corpses lay everywhere. They were both human and beast.

At the center, there was a green sphere emitting a faint light. It was seemingly resonating with something.

Moreover, there were signs of struggle.

An elder below was stunned at the scene.

Then, he burst into laughter.

“It’s done? The Earth Extreme Silent Pearl is showing fluctuations! Hahaha!” After that, he ordered the others to continue the sacrifice.

At that moment, everyone was extremely excited. If they succeeded, the South would soon become history.

“Continue! It won’t be long before we get what we want,” the elder shouted.

Numerous people below echoed in response.

Deep within the forest, Zheng Shijiu took out a Rejuvenation Talisman and began healing.

They leaned against the trees, having no energy left even to set up a formation.

The four people were heavily injured.

The demons’ cultivation wasn’t too high, but their numbers were overwhelming.

Moreover, for some reason, the forest seemed boundless.

It was as if everything was being swallowed by the forest and becoming a part of it.

Xiao Li held the beast and looked at the other three. “Senior Brother, Senior Sister, can’t you defeat the demons?”

Xiao Li looked like a girl of eleven or twelve.

Zheng Nineteen sighed. “Yes, we can’t defeat them anymore. They’ll be here soon.”

Yue You and Xin Yuyue bowed their heads. Their injuries were severe, and escape was nearly impossible.

There was a problem with this forest. They understood the problem but couldn’t solve it.

They thought the mission would be simple, but everything exceeded their expectations.

“Why don’t we ask the beast for help, then?” Xiao Li placed the beast in front of Zheng Shijiu. “Beast has many friends and holds considerable influence.” The four looked at Xiao Li. They were unable to speak for a moment.

“I never lie,” Xiao Li said seriously.

‘You may not lie, but you seem unable to distinguish between real and imaginary…’ Everyone thought that but didn’t say anything.

Roar!

The demons’ roars echoed from afar. Xiao Li was a bit anxious. “Quick. As the beast if there is a way.”

“This…” Zheng Shijiu and the others felt awkward, but considering this was a Golden Core Realm Great Demon, they eventually gave in. “Respected beast…” “You can call me Lord Beast,” said the beast as it munched on a carrot.

“Lord Beast… Do you have a solution?” Zheng Shijiu asked.

“When you encounter a demon, just invoke my name. They won’t bother you after that. Everyone knows that,” said the beast confidently.

“You see?” Xiao Li said seriously. “As long as we hold the beast in front, they’ll recognize us as the beast’s friends and spare us out of respect.” Saying so, Xiao Li walked into the crowd.

Then, she sat in the middle and gazed into the distance.

At that moment, footsteps sounded, and numerous demons rushed over. In an instant, Zheng Shijiu and the others panicked. They couldn’t move. This was bad!

“Don’t be afraid. The beast is here,” Xiao Li said firmly.

Zheng Shijiu and the others felt this young girl was too naive.

The next moment, the demons charged towards them…

Unexpectedly, the demons rushed right past them.

Just like that… they passed by.

It seemed as though they genuinely respected the beast and refrained from attacking them.

Suddenly, everyone looked at the spirit beast.. Could it have been telling the truth all along?
