In my cultivation journey, I completely crushed a group of chosen ones.

She knew that Di Qingci had visited her ice cave before, but unfortunately, she was neither an ice spirit root nor a water spirit root, so she could not inherit her cultivation technique.

However, it seems that others wouldn't even look down on her cultivation method.

He fell asleep again in the blink of an eye. Out of sight, out of mind. His disciple was a lackey, and he couldn't bear to look at him.

Di Qingci walked outside as if taking a stroll, with An Zhiwei following closely behind.

Three days later, they finally encountered a group of people who looked anxious, as if something terrible had happened.

An Zhi whispered, "Boss, I'll go ask what's going on."

Then they scurried over, asking, "What are you all in such a hurry for?"

Upon seeing that they were two female cultivators, the crowd asked, "Fellow Daoists, are you also here in the secret realm for training? You haven't encountered anything strange, have you?"

An Zhiwei was puzzled: "What strange thing? We didn't see anything."

The leader stepped forward and said, "Fellow Daoist, many of us who came to the secret realm have disappeared. We later learned that they were captured by the 'Shadow Clan'."

The Shadow Clan lives in a dark and mysterious dimension. Their bodies are as ethereal as shadows, yet they possess immense power.

These are all things we've seen in ancient books; they would capture cultivators in the mortal realm as vessels.

These people have been captured by the Shadow Clan's minions. We must stop them, or the Xuanhuang Realm will be in danger.

Di Qingci wanted to say that she was not a savior, but she would lend a helping hand if it was within her power.

After all, since she obtained this opportunity on someone else's territory, the Heavenly Dao of this world probably wouldn't reject her: "I'll go with you to take a look."

The man was instantly delighted. He couldn't fathom the person's cultivation level; it was likely the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment.

But thinking about it, that doesn't make sense. How come he can't tell that someone has reached the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment?

If you can't figure it out, then stop thinking about it. The important thing is to focus on the main issue.

About an hour later, hurried footsteps came from afar, and a dozen or so people rushed over.

"Lin Yuexin, where are you rushing off to?"

Lin Yuexin was extremely anxious: "My brother and the others have disappeared. Xiao Huiyu, where have you gone?"

Xiao Huiyu also became anxious: "Many people from our sect have been captured by the Shadow Clan, and your elder brother and the others have probably been captured as well."

I heard they were captured and used as carriers, so I know roughly where they are. I'm going to check it out right now.

Many people disappeared into various corners of the secret realm.

They were taken to a secluded valley.

The valley is surrounded by towering peaks, with clouds and mist swirling around its cliffs, making it seem as if it were isolated from the world.

In the valley, jagged rocks and dark caves one after another exude an eerie atmosphere.

The captured people looked around at their unfamiliar surroundings in terror, their hearts filled with fear and despair!

They were gathered on a large flat area in the middle of the valley, surrounded by a group of mysterious figures patrolling back and forth.

These figures were shrouded in black mist, obscuring their faces, revealing only pairs of eyes that gleamed with a cold light.

Upon hearing this devastating news, Lin Yuexin exclaimed, "Xiao Huiyu, we have to leave quickly! If we're too late, we're doomed!"

Di Qingci was speechless: "You guys are moving too slowly. Xiao Huiyu, you give me directions, and I'll take you there."

In an instant, the Chaos Divine Sword suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes, transforming into a gigantic sword that stood in the air: "Come on up."

Although everyone was puzzled, thinking that they could also fly on swords, why were they complaining that they were too slow?

However, considering that it would save some spiritual energy, no one dared to cause trouble.

The Chaos Divine Sword sliced ​​through the sky and sped away.

Everyone was immediately alarmed; this was a speed that no Foundation Establishment cultivator could achieve.

But this is clearly a Foundation Establishment stage secret realm. Did she use some kind of secret technique to get in?

Soon, they arrived above a valley, and Di Qingci sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere below.

"This should be their temporary base. Let's go down and take a look."

As soon as everyone entered the valley, they felt a heavy sense of oppression.

The footsteps of the mysterious figure patrolling back and forth were exceptionally clear in the silence, sending chills down one's spine.

They hid behind a huge, strange rock, and only approached quietly after the patrolmen had gone far away.

The people in the valley trembled with fear, trying to find a chance to escape.

However, the powerful aura emanating from the figures around them made them dare not make any rash moves.

Soon, a dark figure in the lead let out a low roar.

Like puppets on strings, everyone involuntarily walked deeper into the valley.

Deep in the valley, there is an ancient altar.

The altar was built of black megaliths and was covered with strange runes and patterns.

The runes seemed to have a life of their own, flashing with an eerie light from time to time.

Driven by a mysterious force, the captured people slowly walked toward the altar.

They seemed to have lost their self-awareness, their eyes were empty, and they were like walking corpses.

Lin Yuexin was anxious, but her expression remained calm and composed as they quietly slipped inside.

Then they saw that everyone was heading towards the altar as if they were unconscious.

Xiao Huiyu roared, "Fellow Daoist, let's go in and rescue them. You stay here and keep watch."

As the zombies approached the altar, a powerful suction force pulled them onto it.

The mysterious runes began to flash wildly, and strange energies enveloped them.

The pained expressions on everyone's faces contorted as they cried out in despair!

Enraged, Lin Yuexin charged in instantly.

Seeing that Lin Yuexin had already made a move, Xiao Huiyu quickly brandished his sword: "Lin Yuexin, go and save them! I'll hold them off."

These Shadow Clan members were all shrouded in a thick layer of black mist, as if they had merged with the darkness.

A mysterious figure flashed and appeared in front of Xiao Huiyu as if by teleportation.

He pointed his staff forward sharply, and a black lightning bolt shot towards Xiao Huiyu.

Xiao Huiyu quickly dodged to the side, and lightning grazed past his body, striking a boulder behind him.

The boulder was instantly blasted to pieces, with debris flying everywhere.

Xiao Huiyu felt a chill run down his spine. At the same time, the other mysterious figures launched their attacks.

Some of them unleashed dark fireballs, while others summoned black phantoms.

The dark fireball streaked across the sky like a meteor, carrying intense heat and scorching everything in its path.

Xiao Huiyu was sent flying, and he felt as if his internal organs had been displaced.

Lin Yuexin was sent flying by a palm strike from a dark figure, crashing into the edge of the altar.

Lin Yuexin saw her brother, Lin Jing, among them.

Lin Yuexin hurriedly shouted, "Big brother, big brother, can you hear me?"
