Sister, I don't want to be a furnace anymore. I'm about to become an immortal.

Chapter 102: Enemies Gather

Looking at the replica that turned into powder, Xiao Yichen's face was full of shock, while Xiao Zi ran forward with her short legs and kicked her replica.

Her clone was different and could actually exchange a few moves with Xiao Zi. However, that was all. With the power of the heavenly tribulation, the opponent was quickly pinned to the ground by Xiao Zi and kept enduring attacks.

Finally, a ray of light condensed in Xiao Zi's hand, and with a "boom", her clone was directly turned into powder. Xiao Zi was still not satisfied, so she grabbed the powder on the ground and crushed it to ashes.

Seeing this, Xiao Yichen no longer paid attention to Xiao Zi, but turned his gaze to the group of wandering cultivators who were still fighting. At this moment, they were beaten back again and again. After all, their opponents were themselves, but the spiritual energy in their bodies was not as abundant as their opponents.

Just when they were about to give up, someone took out a pill and threw it into his mouth. Seeing this, the others followed suit, and the situation slowly became anxious again.

But the good times didn't last long. When they were about to suppress their own clones, the crystal ball in the distance suddenly emitted a bright light. It had been absorbing spiritual energy covertly, but now it was absorbing it openly. The speed at which they took the medicine could not keep up with the speed at which it was being absorbed.

Just when everyone was in despair, there was a sound of breaking glass suddenly coming from the cave, followed by a dimming of the light. Someone reacted quickly and immediately used magic to fill the cave with light again.

While everyone was resisting the clones, they also looked forward, only to see that the crystal ball, which had been shining brightly, had become dim and was pierced by a spiritual sword, with fragments scattered everywhere.

The replicas that lost their spiritual energy supply only existed for less than a minute before turning into dust and dissipating in the cave. Only then did everyone look at Xiao Yichen and Xiao Zi in the distance. It was obvious that they were the ones who had done it just now.

"Thank you both for your help." One of the leaders bowed and said to Xiao Yichen.

Xiao Yichen waved his hand, slowly walked towards the broken crystal ball, picked up the fragments on the ground, and examined them quietly.

"No teleportation channel appears. It seems this is a dead end." At this time, a monk nearby looked around carefully and said.

Hearing this, Xiao Yichen's expression under the mask turned a little ugly.

"I got fooled. I wasted so much time."

The expressions of the others were the same. Now that the ruins had just opened, time was more important than anything else, but now they had wasted so much time here.

After dropping the fragments in his hand, Xiao Yichen took Xiao Zi and returned the way he had come. The moment the crystal ball shattered, he sensed that the previous teleportation array had reopened. Seeing this, the group of wandering cultivators hurriedly followed and said to Xiao Yichen:

"I don't know your name, benefactor, or which sect you are from, so that we can repay you in the future."

Xiao Yichen ignored him and continued walking towards the back. It was just a convenient thing to do.

Seeing that he ignored them, the group of cultivators did not dare to disturb him too much. They just silently memorized Xiao Zi's appearance in their hearts and would repay him when they had the chance in the future. As for Xiao Yichen, his face could not be seen at all because of his black clothes.

A burst of light flashed, and Xiao Yichen came out of the cave and returned to the hall. He found that more and more people were gathered here, including many monks from the sect who had entered before. It seemed that they had also entered a dead end.

"Fortunately, no one found the right way."

Xiao Yichen breathed a sigh of relief. After all, although his own failure was regrettable, the success of others was even more enviable.

From the discussions of the people around him, Xiao Yichen heard that other teleportation arrays were either filled with various traps or imprisoned with powerful monsters, which were undoubtedly extremely dangerous. Xiao Yichen was lucky because the crystal ball he encountered was completely resistant to him.

Another door emitted a ray of light, and soon, a large group of cultivators walked out from inside. Xiao Yichen raised his eyebrows slightly.

"It's actually someone from the Charming Desire Sect."

At this moment, Liu Qingqing and Yun Mei were standing in the middle of the team, having suffered serious injuries, as were the other disciples. The most important thing was that the number of people in the Meiyu Sect was much smaller than what Xiao Yichen had seen before.

"It seems they have met a tough opponent. Fortunately, Qingqing is fine." Xiao Yichen felt relieved. After seeing Liu Qingqing, Xiao Zi wanted to run over, but was pulled back by Xiao Yichen.

"Xiao Zi, your sister Qingqing is playing a game with you. You have to pretend that you don't know her. Whoever pretends the longest wins. The winner will get a reward."

In the distance, Liu Qingqing looked over here with a sense of understanding. When she saw Xiao Zi in the arms of the man in black, her face lit up with joy for a moment, but she quickly suppressed it. They had agreed before that they would not recognize each other unless it was absolutely necessary.

Yunmei was right next to Liu Qingqing, so she naturally noticed what she was doing. She looked over there, and her whole body trembled unconsciously, and her lips began to turn pale.

"That monster is here too." She said to herself.

Although many people were wearing Xiao Yichen's black clothes, combined with Liu Qingqing's reaction, the other party's identity was self-evident.

Xiao Yichen on this side ignored them. While coaxing Xiao Zi, he observed other sects. Not long after, several teleportation arrays began to light up, and cultivators slowly walked out of them. Most of them were injured and looked very ugly.

"Damn, this isn't a trap, is it?"

At this time, someone shouted loudly, and after hearing it, the people around him fell into deep thought.

At this time, most of the teleportation arrays have been confirmed to be dead ends, with only a few left. However, no one who had entered before came out again, so it is not difficult to guess how dangerous it is inside.

"Let's go. What a lousy opportunity! If we stay any longer, we'll all die here."

Another angry voice was heard, and after venting his anger, the speaker walked towards the outside of the ruins. Those who also wanted to retreat followed him, almost all of them were independent cultivators.

At this moment, a low voice came from behind them:

"Everyone, please stay."

Upon hearing this, everyone stopped moving forward and turned their heads back. The one who spoke was the elder of the Xiantian Sect: Wuyan.

"Anything else?" someone asked.

"It's nothing, I just want to ask you for a small favor and go to those teleportation arrays." Wuyan said with a faint expression.

However, when everyone heard this, their faces changed drastically. The other party's meaning was very clear. They were planning to use them as cannon fodder.

"Impossible! I've seen strong people in the Concentration Realm enter those teleportation arrays before, but they haven't come out yet." Someone shouted.

After hearing this, the surrounding cultivators showed expressions of fear. There was no one in their group who had reached the state of concentration, so going in would only mean death.

Wuyan adjusted his beard and waved his hand, and the disciples of Xiantian Sect came forward one after another.

Upon seeing this, the wandering cultivators all ran towards the outside of the ruins. However, before they could take a few steps, the exit was blocked by a group of cultivators. Their attire was that of people from the Discipline Valley.

Xiao Yichen stood in the distance and watched all this quietly. He turned his head to look around, the corners of his mouth slowly rose up, but his eyes gradually became cold.

"Haha, the Discipline Valley, the Spirit Sword Sect, and the Charming Desire Sect are all here."

He also saw the Qingfeng Pavilion team in the crowd, and there were some familiar faces among them, his former senior brother Jun Mo, as well as Jiang Luoyao and Ye Xingchen. However, he did not see Xuan Qing. The team was led by another elder this time, but Xiao Yichen was not familiar with him and did not know his name.

A large group of independent cultivators were surrounded in the middle. Seeing this, none of the other sects spoke out to stop them. Even if they disagreed with the actions of the Xiantian Sect and the Discipline Valley, they did not want to be the first to offend these two major sects.

"There are still five teleportation arrays. Everyone, do you want to choose yourselves, or do you want me to choose for you?"
