I asked you to go down the mountain and get married, not to shock the world!

"That's good now. The repair speed of the Burning Sky Ancient Jade can be several times faster."

Jin Man looked at Ming Chuan with a complicated expression in his eyes, "But this fire spirit has recognized you as its master. I'm afraid there will be trouble in the future."

Mingchuan knew she was referring to the sect.

If the elders knew about such a heaven-defying spiritual object, they would definitely try every means to keep it in the sect, and it might even be detrimental to Xiaohuo.

"Let's take it one step at a time." Mingchuan clenched his fists. "At least now, we are one step closer to controlling the secret realm."

The fog on the horizon gradually dissipated, revealing the outline of the rising sun.

When Mingchuan and Jinman returned to the resting place, the disciples had already woken up and were packing their luggage to prepare to set off.

Seeing the two return, Su Hao hurried forward and said, "Elder, Junior Brother Ziang, we should go deeper into Burning Sky Valley. That should be the location of the Fire Spirit Node."

Mingchuan nodded and glanced at everyone. The spiritual power in his body became more condensed due to the nourishment last night. The small fire and ancient jade in his sea of ​​consciousness exuded a peaceful atmosphere.

"Let's go!"

He took a deep breath, faced the rising sun, and walked into the valley first.

Next, it’s time to meet those demonic cultivators who are still coveting the ancient jade.

Deep in Burning Sky Valley.

The fog here is thicker than that outside, but it is no longer dark red, but a strange gray-black color. The air is filled with a faint smell of blood, mixed with the unique stench of demonic energy.

A dark shadow emerged from the thick fog, carrying an unconscious young monk on his shoulder.

The monk was wearing the green Taoist robe of Jinling Pavilion. His chest rose and fell weakly, and his face was as pale as paper. It was obvious that most of his spiritual power had been sucked away.

The black shadow dragged the man to a hidden cave entrance, and several hoarse laughs immediately came from inside.

"Suo Fei, caught another one?"

"This cultivator from Jinling Pavilion is just the right medicine to use as a guide for the Lord's Soul Devouring Formation."

Suo Fei threw the man to the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes full of hostility.

"That guy from the Qingcheng Yufa Sect hid himself so well, we searched all night and couldn't find any trace of him. But these stragglers were easy to catch."

More than a dozen disciples from various sects were lying in the cave, all of them pale and dying, with wisps of pale white mist floating above their heads.

That was the spiritual power and soul that was forcibly extracted!

The mist slowly flowed into the depths along the black runes on the top of the cave, where the outline of a huge formation could be vaguely seen.

In the center of the formation, a bronze-masked man sat cross-legged, surrounded by a thick demonic aura, greedily absorbing the spiritual power.

"The Lord said that he won't wait for that kid anymore."

A tall demon cultivator said in a muffled voice, "The Soul Devouring Formation will be completed in three hours. By then, not to mention that brat, even the elders from various sects will be forced to kneel here!"

Suo Fei sneered, "That's best. Once the formation is complete, I'll be the first to go and settle the score with that brat!"

……

At the same time, in an open space in the middle of Burning Sky Valley, the disciples of Jinling Pavilion were looking around anxiously.

"I've searched everywhere, but I still can't find Junior Brother Qingyun!"

A female disciple's eyes were red. "He just went to pick herbs nearby yesterday. How could he suddenly disappear?"

The disciples of the nearby Zixiao Pure Land also looked solemn. "We are also missing two people. They were there when we were on guard last night, but they were gone when we woke up this morning. We only found this on the ground."

He held up a blood-stained piece of clothing, which was stained with a few strands of gray-black demonic energy. It was exactly the attire of the disciples of Zixiao Jingyuan.

"It's a demon cultivator!" someone whispered, "How could a demon cultivator enter the secret realm?!"

"What? Shouldn't we be the only ones in this secret realm? Where did this demonic cultivator come from?"

For a moment, the disciples of each sect were all panicked.

Originally, everyone was thinking about watching out for each other and competing for the treasure, but in just one night, nearly ten disciples disappeared, and all of them disappeared silently!

And now, this group of people have discovered the traces of the evil cultivators!

Mu Yaoyao stood in the crowd, her expression gloomier than anyone else's.

The Butian Holy Sect also lost two disciples, one of whom was the previous Ji Sheng.

She later discovered that Ji Sheng's memory had been tampered with. She wanted to find him to ask him clearly, but she didn't expect that he would disappear without a trace.

At that time, Ji Sheng said that he might have fallen into an illusion and encountered danger.

Now it seems that he was probably captured by that group of evil cultivators.

His subsequent disappearance was probably because he was taken away by the evil cultivator again.

"We can't fight alone anymore." Mu Yaoyao took a deep breath and looked at the elders from various sects around her.

"The demonic cultivators are secretly arresting people, clearly planning something. We must join forces and find their lair first, otherwise we will be eliminated one by one sooner or later!"

The elders of Jinling Pavilion nodded in agreement: "Saint Mu is right! I sense that Qingyun's natal jade talisman has broken. Those demonic cultivators are killing people and taking their souls!"

"But we don't even know where the demon cultivators are, how can we join forces?"

The elder of Zixiao Jingyuan frowned, "This Burning Sky Valley is so vast, and the fog is so thick, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack."

Everyone was silent for a moment, and panic spread in the air.

They could feel that an invisible net was tightening, and they had become prey in the net.

Ye Chuhan and Sect Master Ye both looked at this scene with extremely gloomy expressions on their faces.

They did not participate in this chaotic conversation, but people from Qingfeng Yumen were also missing.

How could they have imagined that they originally came here to observe Mingchuan's progress.

As a result, I encountered such a thing!

At this moment, a disciple of the Bu Tian Holy Sect hurried over and said, "Saintess, we found this in the fog to the east!"

As the man spoke, everyone's attention was drawn to him.

The disciple handed over a black token with strange runes engraved on it. It was exactly the thing dropped by the demon cultivator before.

There was still a very faint aura of the soul on the token, faintly pointing to the depths of the valley.

Mu Yaoyao gripped the token tightly, a fierce look flashing in her eyes.

"They're in the deep! No matter what trap lies ahead, we must go!"

The disciples from each sect looked at each other and saw determination in each other's eyes.

Rather than sit back and wait for death, it is better to take the initiative.

Otherwise, if they stayed any longer, they would probably all be killed by the evil cultivators as there were only a few of them left.

After all, the demons are in the dark, and they are in the light.

There's no way to guard against it at all!

"go!"

Following an order from one of the elders, the disciples from various sects formed a temporary team and headed towards the depths of Burning Sky Valley!

Among this group of people, only the disciples of Qingcheng Yufa Sect did not participate.

But their voices were also heard by the people from Qingcheng Yufa Sect.

Luo Yang looked solemn and walked forward to find Jin Man and Mingchuan.

"Elder Jin, Junior Brother Ziang, what should we do next? Should we integrate into their team?"
