I can gather experience beads

Cao Rui felt dizzy. When he came back to his senses from the spatial vibration of the teleportation array, he found himself in a dim hall.

There was an oppressive atmosphere in the hall, with only two objects resembling fire pillars emitting faint light, barely illuminating the surrounding environment.

Perhaps because Cao Rui's soul was stronger than others, he became the first person to come back to his senses.

The rest of the people were still standing there in a daze, apparently still swaying in the teleportation array.

However, to his surprise, the second person to wake up was not Gu Qingying, but Huiguang.

Huiguang seemed to notice something and glanced at Cao Rui, but did not say anything. He just stood aside silently.

Soon after, other cultivators and demon cultivators also woke up one after another.

They looked around in confusion, obviously not yet fully adapted to this strange environment.

Zhang Heng and the others also came to their senses. They quickly withdrew and swiftly rushed to an empty place, observing the surrounding situation vigilantly.

Upon seeing this, Cao Rui also followed and stood with the small group of independent cultivators.

At the same time, the other monks who were teleported in also responded quickly. They each formed small groups.

Soon, four waves of forces clearly formed in the hall. Each wave of forces gathered together, keeping a certain distance from each other, with vigilance and alertness in their eyes.

There was one wave of five dragon-like monsters, one wave of two people from the Yunshui Sect, Gu Qingying and a female elder, one wave of two people from the Miaoyin Temple, led by Huiguang and two abbots, and the other wave of four people, led by Zhang Heng, from the independent cultivators side.

It can be seen that although the Yunshui Sect and Miaoyin Temple are cooperating, they are not as close as they appear on the surface.

The more important reason is that the Spirit Beast Sect has risen recently, and the two sects have no choice but to be connected.

The cultivators from the Second Sect all looked grim. Taoist Lanlong's sudden attack during the teleportation caused the Second Sect to lose five Foundation Establishment cultivators!

Moreover, they are all experienced foundation-building monks with good combat capabilities!

Zhang Heng cursed loudly at this time: "Damn it, Huiguang, your guess is really good. Fortunately, you let us start the transmission suddenly, and the Blue Dragon Taoist couldn't react in time! Otherwise, when the transmission was turned on, the blue worm had enough time to react, and we, the human cultivators, would have been caught in one fell swoop, right?"

"If you ask me, we should join forces and kill these five long insects first!"

Hearing this, the five dragon-like monsters all took several steps back. Although they were only third-level monsters, due to the blood in their bodies, except for the inability to transform and speak, their IQ was no different from that of ordinary humans.

Moreover, these five dragon-like monsters have been able to retract their bodies, and their bodies have all shrunk to a size of two or three meters.

At present, the number of human cultivators has the advantage. If they are really besieged as Zhang Heng said, they will surely die.

"This old Taoist priest's suggestion is not bad!" Gu Qingying was ready to make a move. The three foundation-building elders had died, and the Yunshui Sect had suffered too much loss. It was all because of these brutal demon cultivators! Gu Qingying wanted to kill the demons immediately to vent his hatred!

"Amitabha, fellow Taoists, let's take a look at the surroundings first and don't rush into a fight. The environment here is quite strange." Huiguang spoke, stopping the fight that was about to happen.

Huiguang gathered his magical power, formed a magical seal with his hands, and a golden Buddhist seal was cast on the wall of the hall.

There was a flash of light on the wall, and Foyin did not cause any damage to the wall.

"My suggestion is that now that we have come here, we should put aside our prejudices for the time being. It will not be too late to distribute the benefits after we have gained them in the fortress," Huiguang said in a voice transmission.

The benefits are in hand, killing people to get the treasure? Huiguang's words are not without reason, and Gu Qingying's murderous intent gradually hides.

The monks searched the hall but found nothing unusual. It seemed that they could only find something by walking out of the hall.

"You long worms, go explore the front." Gu Qingying, holding a magic sword, spoke to the five dragon-like monsters with imposing manner.

The five dragon-like monsters knew that the situation was not right, so they obediently walked towards the exit of the hall.

Although this Tianji Fortress has been recorded in the Yunzhou immortal cultivation world, no one knows its internal structure.

It would be best to let these monsters explore the way.

A group of monks followed the monster and walked out of the hall.

Cao Rui followed at the end of the team. His spiritual sense lingered on two torch-like light sources and he discovered that these were not real campfires but a kind of mechanical lighting device. The specific principle was unknown.

"What a strange fog."

The voice of the female elder of Yunshui Sect came from the front.

Cao Rui swept his spiritual sense around and found that the inside and outside of the hall were completely two different worlds.

Although it was dark in the empty hall, the monks could still see everything clearly with their eyesight and spiritual sense.

However, even with Cao Rui's spiritual power, he was unable to penetrate the gray fog outside the hall.

A monster cautiously poked its head out and looked nervously outside the fog.

Suddenly, with a loud "bang", a thick gray arm stretched out like lightning, grabbed the monster's head tightly, and dragged it into the fog.

Then, a thrilling roar resounded through the fog, like a roar from hell.

A moment later, the monster's figure fled out from the fog in a panic. It ran desperately to the deepest part of the hall and finally fell to the ground, gasping for breath.

The monks looked up in astonishment at the scene before them. They were surprised to find that after being dragged into the mist for only a few breaths, the monster's body was already covered with scars, with almost no intact part left.

The scales on the monster's body were broken and the wounds were so deep that one could even see the bones.

Especially on its huge dragon head, a deep claw mark extended from the head to the left lower jaw, which was hideous and terrifying.

What’s even more terrifying is that the entire left eyeball is gone, leaving only a black eye socket with the white bones vaguely visible inside.

"Damn it, it's a good thing the monster hit us first! What's going on here? Is this an opportunity or a trap?" Zhang Heng couldn't help but yell.

"Shut up! Old Taoist!" Gu Qingying scolded.

Zhang Heng immediately stopped his actions.

Several monsters gathered around the injured monster, growling softly.

The third-level monsters are unable to speak human language and cannot communicate with the monks.

The monks didn't know what they were communicating.

The Spiritual Beast Sect does have a subject called Beast Language, but Cao Rui is a 'fake' disciple of the Spiritual Beast Sect and has never studied such a subject.

"Fellow Daoist Shi, you are a physical practitioner, what do you think?" Tan Hongmei asked at this time. This statement focused everyone's attention on Shi Shatian.

Physical cultivation is still extremely rare in Yunzhou. After all, it is much more difficult to prove the Dao with strength than ordinary cultivators, and the techniques they practice are often the most advanced.
