After the barrier was broken, they entered the strange place where Su Jingzhen often frequented.
However, the barrier’s destruction didn’t seem to have much impact on the inside.
The mist remained thick.
The difference from when Su Jingzhen was here was that the mist no longer carried any sharp sword intent.
Luo Yuebai and the younger generation of the Bai Family found it much easier navigating through it compared to Su Jingzhen’s previous experience.
However, both spiritual consciousness and divine consciousness were still difficult to use within this place.
Luo Yuebai and the Bai Family’s younger generation could only probe a range of less than five zhang.
“Shen Yifeng, remember your previous promise,” Bai Ying said to Shen Yifeng once more.
Without further hesitation, she followed Bai Susu and the others into the mist.
They had expected treasures to be scattered throughout the strange land.But upon actually entering, they realized the reality was vastly different from their imagination.
The thick mist alone was enough to confuse everyone.
Luo Yuebai was undoubtedly the most anxious among them.
Without a second thought, she headed straight towards the center of the strange land.
However, the area was vast, and visibility was poor, making it difficult to determine their position.
For a moment, she was unsure where to even begin her search.
“The spiritual energy here is incredibly rich and ancient.
Even without treasures, it could be considered a powerful cultivation ground.”
“Indeed, the spiritual energy here isn’t a single attribute.
Any cultivator who trains here would likely see doubled progress.
If our Bai Family could take control of this place, the younger generation’s rise would be even faster.”
“The only downside is that this place is too far from the Bai Family.
It would be perfect if we could establish a branch here.”
“…”
The Bai Family disciples, looking at the dense mist and feeling the rich spiritual energy, were filled with excitement.
Their conversation was laced with regret.
However, at that moment, none of the Bai Family dared to think about killing Shen Yifeng and Luo Yuebai to claim the place for themselves.
After all, the scene of Shen Yifeng almost destroying Bai Qingshi with a single sword was still fresh in their minds.
The lesson learned from Bai Qingshi’s experience had made everyone realize that even if Bai Ying fought Shen Yifeng with all her might, she wouldn’t gain much advantage.
As they contemplated this, the Bai Family’s speed didn’t slacken.
They were also steadily approaching the center of the strange land.
“The spiritual energy and all the pressure seem to be coming from ahead.
If there are treasures here, they should be concentrated in the central area.
There’s no need for us to explore the edges too much.”
The intact Nascent Soul cultivator from the Bai Family addressed the younger generation.
“Ah! What a huge rat!”
As the Bai Family members moved towards the center of the mist, one of the female disciples suddenly screamed.
Even though they were cultivators, seeing such a massive beast suddenly appear was bound to cause some fear, especially in this unfamiliar territory.
Their hearts pounded with anxiety.
The female disciple’s scream quickly drew the attention of the entire Bai Family.
“This death is truly gruesome.
But why is its body so fresh?
There’s even blood nearby, as if it died just yesterday.
Could someone have entered before us?”
“That’s unlikely.
While Qingzhou is filled with hidden talents, Linjiang City is still a remote town.
The strongest force here is the Evil Moon Sect Linjiang Branch, led by Shen Yifeng.
Didn’t he also need our elder’s help to find this place?”
The Bai Family members grew increasingly serious, but their pace towards the center quickened.
They rushed towards the center with incredible speed.
The pressure that had been lurking within the mist seemed to have gradually dissipated after the giant python’s revival or when Su Jingzhen fully absorbed the sword energy.
Shen Yifeng and Bai Ying, being the strongest fighters among them, despite entering the strange land last, instantly surpassed everyone else.
They took the lead.
Without the pressure hindering them, Shen Yifeng and Bai Ying reached the edge of the large pit in just a few breaths.
“Here… everything started from here!”
The two muttered to themselves.
In the next instant, Shen Yifeng suddenly saw Su Jingzhen lying in the pit.
His expression changed instantly.
He then rushed to Su Jingzhen’s side at his fastest speed.
As for the figure in black robes behind Su Jingzhen, Shen Yifeng didn’t even bother to glance at it.
At the center of the pit, the giant python had completely vanished.
The entire pit seemed empty except for Su Jingzhen and the figure in black robes.
Shen Yifeng didn’t have time for anything else, so he immediately checked Su Jingzhen’s condition.
A wisp of spiritual energy entered Su Jingzhen’s body, sensing the chaotic blood energy within him and the meridians that were severely damaged and hadn’t fully recovered yet.
His heart sank suddenly.
But he also let out a slight sigh of relief.
At least, Su Jingzhen was still alive!
However, it was precisely because of the chaotic blood energy within Su Jingzhen that he didn’t notice that Su Jingzhen had opened seven human Secret Repositories.
Shen Yifeng took out a treasured healing pill from his storage ring and fed it to Su Jingzhen.
Seeing this, Bai Ying’s brows furrowed suddenly.
Her gaze swept across the surroundings again.
Her expression grew grim.
At this time, Luo Yuebai and Bai Susu, who arrived at the center, also came over.
Seeing Su Jingzhen lying on the ground, Luo Yuebai’s face changed drastically.
“Third Grandpa, how is he?”
No matter how deep Luo Yuebai’s heart was, she couldn’t help but reveal her true feelings at this moment.
The worry and anxiety on her face were evident.
“Don’t worry, he won’t die.
He just needs some time to recover,” Shen Yifeng said after the initial panic subsided.
He then looked at Su Jingzhen and the figure in black robes behind him.
Seeing that Su Jingzhen was still tightly clutching the blood-stained long sword in his hands, and looking at the two sword marks that pierced through his Dantian, as well as the position and fatal wound of the figure in black robes, he could easily deduce what had happened between the two.
“This battle was indeed quite brutal,” Shen Yifeng thought to himself, already having a rough picture in his mind.
Luo Yuebai didn’t even glance at the corpse of the figure in black robes.
She sat down directly beside Su Jingzhen and placed his head on her lap.
Then, she carefully extended a wisp of spiritual energy to probe Su Jingzhen’s internal condition.
As she sensed the chaotic and terrible power within Su Jingzhen’s body, her face instantly paled.
“How could it be so chaotic?” Luo Yuebai murmured to herself.
Instinctively, she reached for her storage ring and pulled out various high-grade pills, ready to feed them to Su Jingzhen.
At that moment, Shen Yifeng spoke again, “Too much of a good thing is bad. I already gave him a pill earlier.
He needs time to absorb it.
This brat is a Body Cultivatior, his self-healing ability is quite strong.
He won’t have any problems, he should be back to his old self in three to five days.”
Hearing Shen Yifeng’s words, Luo Yuebai felt a little calmer.
At this time, all the Bai Family members had arrived at the center of the pit.
They didn’t need Shen Yifeng and the others to explain anything.
Bai Ying and the others, seeing Luo Yuebai and Su Jingzhen like this, naturally understood that Shen Yifeng hadn’t lied before.
No matter how Su Jingzhen managed it, he was the first to appear in the center of this strange land.
Therefore, this place should belong to the Evil Moon Sect.
Even though the Bai Family desperately wanted to take it over, they had no angle or strength to do so.
They could try to be bullies and forcefully occupy it, but in the entire Qingzhou region, who was more of a bully than the Evil Moon Sect?
At least Bai Susu couldn’t think of anyone.
While Luo Yuebai and Shen Yifeng hadn’t focused their attention on the pit yet, the Bai Family members began exploring the surroundings.
They had always believed that there was a treasure here, but after searching for a while, they only found a few black, hard, iron-like scales.
Of course, they naturally assumed the large patches of blood on the ground came from Su Jingzhen and the figure in black robes in front of them.
After all, they weren’t blind, and they had all seen the almost countless wounds on Su Jingzhen and the figure in black robes.
“What kind of scales are these? Such powerful demonic energy, such a hard material!
Could it be that a powerful demon beast lived here before?
Speaking of which, this place does seem like a lair.”
“If we could find a few more pieces, we could probably forge a pretty good set of armor.”
“If these are indeed scales from a demon beast, then its level must be terrifying.”
“…”
The Bai Family members discussed excitedly.
At this time, Luo Yuebai’s gaze fell on Shen Yifeng beside her.
“Third Grandpa, how long will it take for him to recover?” Luo Yuebai asked, holding Su Jingzhen.
“Three to five days, I think,” Shen Yifeng replied.
This was just Shen Yifeng’s conservative estimate.
However, as his master, he really didn’t know his disciple well enough.
Hearing Shen Yifeng’s words, Luo Yuebai nodded.
Her gaze then fell on the Bai Family members who were still chattering beside them.
“Well, can we tell them to go away?”
