Chapter 206 Demonic Cultivation Site
The spot where Li Ping stood also cracked open, revealing the outline of the magic array.
"What is this?"
He was startled; his first reaction to something he didn't understand was to run away.
Whoosh!
As Li Ping took out the magical artifact, the Treasure Mirror, needed to open the secret realm, he flew rapidly towards the entrance of the secret realm.
But his actions were clearly too late.
Just as he flew toward the entrance, the magic array covering the entire secret cave was activated, and a misty, milky-white light shot into the sky, enveloping Li Ping within it.
Witnessing this commotion, Li Ping finally recognized what it was from his memory.
This was clearly a giant teleportation array.
He was completely dumbfounded.
Who knows where this giant teleportation array will send him? He's doing just fine in the Western Wilderness, and he doesn't want to leave his comfort zone and inexplicably end up in a strange place.
But things obviously didn't go as Li Ping had hoped.
The teleportation array activated too quickly; he didn't have time to open the secret realm passage before he left.
The massive teleportation array suddenly emitted a buzzing sound, and when the light faded, Li Ping's figure had already disappeared.
After the teleportation, the teleportation array seemed to have completed its mission and collapsed, even affecting the entire secret realm in the aftershocks of its disintegration.
It began to dissolve and dissipate from all directions...
Of course, what Li Ping didn't know was that, apart from his secret cave dwelling...
As the Spirit Gate Foundation Establishment opened the hidden space within the Azure Cloud Secret Realm, the teleportation arrays in two other miniature secret realms were activated. After being teleported, these two miniature secret realms, like the one where Li Ping was, were subsequently swallowed by the spatial storm.
However, apart from the secret realm where Li Ping was located, the other two miniature secret realms were completely empty, containing nothing at all.
……
He had barely steadied himself when he had no time to survey his surroundings.
Li Ping patted his storage bag at his waist, and two puppets, A1 and A2, emerged from the bag, protecting him firmly from the front and back. At the same moment, a beam of blood-red light flew out of his storage bag, rapidly enlarging and transforming into a shield over ten feet long, extremely intelligent, blocking his way.
The Wildfire Sparrow also flew out of the spirit beast pouch and hovered above Li Ping's head.
After doing all this, he felt relieved and looked around. There was no danger in the stone chamber, but Li Ping was not in a hurry to put away the puppet and the spirit bird.
When he saw his surroundings, his expression turned grim. It turned out that after being teleported, he found himself in a tall stone chamber, which also contained a huge teleportation array.
At this moment, he was standing in the center of the teleportation array.
Moreover, he didn't know whether the teleportation array on the other side was broken or if the teleportation array was one-way, but he was currently unable to activate the teleportation array under his feet to return.
Now, Li Ping can only accept the fact that there's no going back.
Fortunately, he was in the habit of carrying all his belongings with him, so even though he was teleported here for no reason, he did not suffer any property loss.
He looked dejectedly at the four walls of the stone chamber.
The walls of the stone chamber were smooth, as if they had been carved by a knife and axe, and the top was inlaid with numerous luminous pearls, illuminating the area below as bright as day.
To his left is a stone door several meters high, which should be the exit from this stone chamber.
After a moment's thought and a sigh, Li Ping stepped away from the teleportation array and walked out of the stone chamber.
Stepping out of the stone chamber, Li Ping found himself in a long tunnel, the end of which was beyond his reach, even his divine sense could not detect.
"Am I inside a mountain?"
Protected by the Blood Transformation Shield, Li Ping piloted two puppets to clear the way and flew towards the end of the tunnel, while the Wildfire Sparrow followed him with a clear cry.
After flying for dozens of miles, Li Ping finally saw a light ahead, which seemed to indicate that they had reached the exit.
He felt a chill run down his spine and became extremely vigilant.
He dared not relax for a moment until he understood his surroundings.
Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened until he flew out of the tunnel. After his eyes adjusted to the bright outside environment, he realized that he had landed on a protruding platform on the mountainside.
The platform was made entirely of massive blue boulders, and there was nothing above it.
Li Ping looked up, but all he saw was a white curtain of light. The sky in this unfamiliar place was actually somewhat similar to the sky in the secret cave.
Of course, the sky above the secret cave is only a hundred feet high.
And in this unfamiliar place, the mountain peak that Li Ping flew out of is definitely more than a thousand feet high.
Whoosh!
Li Ping rode the azure light and flew into the sky. As he flew higher and higher, more and more of this unfamiliar place was revealed to him.
He flew for dozens of miles, all the way to the end of the sky, before he finally confirmed that the sky here was indeed like that of the secret cave, formed by an array of protective walls. Beyond the incredibly thick protective walls lay a raging spatial storm.
This place is also a secret realm.
Of course, the area of this secret realm is much larger than the cave he came from.
Even with Li Ping's eyesight, and standing dozens of miles above the sky, he could only barely make out the situation in the secret realm.
The secret realm is roughly several hundred miles in circumference. He is currently located in one corner of the secret realm, with a towering mountain about 1,300 feet high beneath his feet.
Meanwhile, in the other three corners of the secret realm, there are also three enormous mountains that are no less massive than the mountain at Li Ping's feet.
Four colossal mountains firmly guarded the four corners of the secret realm, like four giant beasts subtly suppressing the plain in the center.
This layout gave Li Ping the feeling that the four giant peaks were like four nails, firmly pinning down the entire secret realm.
Li Ping spent half a day carefully examining the mountain peak beneath his feet and found it to be completely desolate. There were no birds or beasts, not even a single tree or blade of grass.
It was completely quiet; there wasn't a single unusual sound.
Li Ping didn't care about the environment. Anyway, he had the Jade of Spiritual Eyes in his hand. As long as he was safe, he could still cultivate even in a place without spiritual energy.
But the problem now is that he doesn't know if this secret place is safe.
After a moment's thought, Li Ping flew directly towards the center of the secret realm.
He needed to at least confirm the safety of this secret realm and find a way to leave before he could stay here and cultivate with peace of mind.
Just as Li Ping flew towards the center of the secret realm, intending to explore the situation within,
In the center of the secret realm.
Here stands a magnificent palace built of black stone, its doors wide open, but inside it is pitch black and nothing can be seen clearly.
Suddenly, a fireball shot out from inside the palace gate, and after a moment's hesitation, it sped off into the distance.
Behind the fireball, six figures in black robes chased after it, cursing loudly. Their expressions were all extremely ugly.
Not long ago, following the instructions of the Grand Elder, they opened the second level of the secret realm passage to this palace. They painstakingly broke through the formation and were about to obtain the treasure.
Xiao Yunzhi suddenly appeared and launched an attack on them.
Just as they were surprised to see Xiao Yunzhi in the palace and joined forces to deal with her, a spirit bird suddenly darted out and snatched the treasure away.
The treasure thus fell into Xiao Yunzhi's hands.
The six members of the Yuling Sect had wasted their time, and they were not about to give up. They immediately used various methods to try to kill Xiao Yunzhi and take back the treasure.
Someone waved their hand and released a large cloud of golden light, which emitted a buzzing sound and rushed towards Xiao Yunzhi. Upon closer inspection, it could be seen that the golden cloud was actually composed of countless thumb-sized golden spirit bees.
These bees had mouthparts several inches long, gleaming with a cold, sharp light; they looked like menacing creatures.
Someone else released a horned beast that spewed a thick beam of light at Xiao Yunzhi.
……
The cultivators of the Spirit Control Sect are not particularly strong, but they are skilled at cultivating spirit insects and spirit beasts.
In battle, once the spirit insects and spirit beasts are released, they can create a swarm effect, making them extremely difficult to deal with.
Faced with the attack, Xiao Yunzhi dodged rapidly while fleeing into the distance.
At the same time, she was still in shock.
The reason she insisted on snatching the item despite risking her own safety was because she recognized its origin.
Such forbidden items were most likely sealed here by ancient cultivators.
How could she possibly allow it to fall into the hands of demonic cultivators and wreak havoc on living beings?
"The space within this secret realm is only so big; she can't escape," Kunhu said viciously. "Let's split up and surround her. Since she dared to follow us in, we'll kill her here today!"
"So what if you're a cultivator with a Heavenly Spiritual Root? A dead Heavenly Spiritual Root is worthless!"
The other five nodded with grim expressions, then dispersed and formed a net to surround the direction Xiao Yunzhi had fled.
Kunhu is right. They have figured out how to leave. As long as they don't open the passage on their own, Xiao Yunzhi can only deal with them within this space.
No matter how fast she was, she couldn't escape being surrounded by six people.
Considering that Xiao Yunzhi's combat strength is far beyond that of ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators, apart from Kun Hu and another late-stage Foundation Establishment demonic cultivator, there are no other cultivators who can compete with her.
The remaining four Foundation Establishment stage demonic cultivators carefully maintained their distance from each other, guarding against Xiao Yunzhi's sudden attack.
However, none of the six of them, including Xiao Yunzhi, noticed it.
Just after the seal was broken and Xiao Yunzhi took the item placed in the black palace, this hidden space, the so-called second level of the Azure Cloud Secret Realm, gradually became unstable.
Of course, this change is very slow.
However, although the changes are slow, the final result will be the complete annihilation of this second secret realm, along with the Qingyun Secret Realm.
……
The Foundation Establishment cultivators inside the secret realm were unaware of this, but the Core Formation cultivators outside the secret realm immediately sensed something was wrong.
Especially Lu Laomo, who was sitting cross-legged, noticed that the entrance to the secret realm had become unstable, and a smile appeared on his face.
This change clearly indicates that the cultivators he sent into the secret realm have already obtained the item.
He immediately stood up: "Gentlemen, I think the entrance to the secret realm seems a bit unstable. Just in case something goes wrong, why don't we open the passage now and let those juniors out?"
Qiu Changfeng snorted coldly: "I think it was you who did this."
