Golden light whistled, like a comet. The Sovereigns stared intently, their eyes slightly stung, as if gazing directly at the sun.
The source of that golden light was a goddess of extraordinary beauty, her features exquisite and flawless. But for the high-ranking individuals present, it was her fairy-like aura, her surging energy that purified everything, that was truly intimidating and noteworthy.
As she approached the stellar fragments that had transformed from the two Slaughter Instances, the aloof and elegant goddess suddenly paused.
Whoosh! Behind her, layers upon layers of golden light surged like a tidal wave, lifting her skirt and flowing black hair. Carried by momentum, it crashed towards the high-ranking individuals present.
"Truly a detestable aura!" The Southern Faction Leader of the Void Sect, waved his hand lightly. The golden light surging towards the group seemed to collide with an invisible barrier, reversing and flowing back, before returning to the ancient-robed woman.
The Lady of Three Daos Mountain scrutinized the crowd, her dark, spirited pupils transforming into brilliant golden orbs.
She swept her gaze over them one by one, and upon recognizing their positions, she couldn't help but raise her delicate eyebrows slightly. "All Master-level figures... three legendary Human Immortals?
"Indeed, after the resurgence of the power of Heaven and Earth, the current era is capable of nurturing cultivators at the Human Immortal level." Her voice was clear and melodious, carrying an ethereal quality that seemed untouched by the mundane world.
Dog Elder stared at the woman controlling the golden light, a thought striking him. He blurted out, "The Lady of Three Daos Mountain?"
He had once heard Sun Elder mention the mountain deity's appearance and characteristics. In Sun Elder's words, "That woman is ridiculously beautiful, like a fairy in a painting, but her personality is too prickly and troublesome."
"Human Immortal is what you called it in your era. In the current era, a Way of the Extraordinary at my level is called a Demi-God!" The White-Haired Female Marshal stood with her hands behind her back, her aura in no way inferior to that of the Mountain Deity.
She turned her head to look at Dog Elder, "Is she the ancient Day Wanderer who awakened in the She Ling Tunnel?"
The Female Marshal's voice was equally pleasant, her enunciation clear and her tone melodious. However, her voice carried a hint of majesty, involuntarily reminding those who heard her of the Empress on her throne.
"Precisely!" Dog Elder nodded. The Sovereigns of the evil organizations, surprised, sized up the Lady of Three Daos Mountain, their minds simultaneously conjuring up the relevant information——Yuanshi Tianzun cleared the She Ling Tunnel, leading to the revival of the ancient Day Wanderer. Furthermore, this ancient Day Wanderer also triggered changes in the Night Wanderer-related Spirit Instance, for which the official had issued an announcement. Is this her?
"Demi-God..." The Lady of Three Daos Mountain murmured to herself, then stared at the White-Haired Marshal, correcting, "Day Wanderer? In my era, we called them Golden Crows!"
Having said that, she ignored the Yuan Shen projections and went straight to the Slaughter Instance of the Extraordinary level. With a light tap of her toe in the void, she collided with the stellar-like small world.
The Sovereigns did not stop her, nor could they. They were merely thoughts projected into the Spirit Instance.
But the Spirit Instance blocked the Lady of Three Daos Mountain. An invisible barrier enveloped the Slaughter Instance, pushing her out.
Seeing this scene, the bigshots of both the Orderly and Evil factions breathed a sigh of relief. If such a powerful boss entered the Slaughter Instance, it would truly be a disaster. The juniors they valued would be in grave danger. King of Fear touched the silver ring on his ear and smiled:
"Although you are different from us, with your true body in the Spirit Instance, you are ultimately restricted by the Spirit Instance. How can you enter the Slaughter Instance?" The Lady of Three Daos Mountain frowned slightly.
After pondering for a few seconds, the Mountain Deity acted decisively. She raised her right arm, golden light erupting from her palm, condensing into a golden longbow. With her left hand, she pulled back the bowstring, golden flames spewing from her fingertips, turning into a scorching arrow. Xiu! The golden light suddenly vibrated, and the dazzling arrow shot out like a meteor.
Boom... It immediately exploded on the surface of the stellar fragment, dissipating into a wave of light that covered the entire stellar fragment, then vanished. The Lady of Three Daos Mountain pursed her lips and furrowed her brows, her aura steadily rising, transforming from a goddess untouched by the mortal world into a female warrior who could pull the divine bow to its fullest extent. Xiu Xiu Xiu... One after another, golden light arrows shot out, constantly exploding on the surface of the stellar fragment, golden waves of light engulfing this small world.
"Losing half of your Yang Soul, you can still exert the power of a high-ranking Sovereign. It seems you are only one step away from the Supreme stage." The Female Marshal stood with her hands behind her back, nodding in assessment. White Tiger Wansui said loudly: "The map of this area is very simple. It only has one fork in the road, twenty meters ahead. After passing this fork, it's a one-way, winding path.
"Even without looking at the map, you won't get lost, because there is only one path, no forks.
"When I was memorizing the route, I found it strange, too simple. I didn't expect this to be a checkpoint." The fewer forks there are, the easier it feels to get lost, because we don't need forks to confuse us anymore... Tianxia Guihuo didn't feel happy at all; instead, his heart sank. Just then, a dazzling and brilliant golden light suddenly lit up, piercing through the dense forest, illuminating everyone's faces.
"What's going on?" Under the layers of canopy, the Way of the Extraordinary of the Five Elements Alliance looked up in astonishment at the golden light that pierced through the branches and leaves, shining into the forest. At this time, their "full" breasts had returned to normal. After leaving the Forest of Reproduction, the spores in everyone's bodies lost their activity and were excreted on their own. Although they couldn't see the night sky, they could imagine that the sky was now covered in golden light. This sudden change left everyone at a loss, both bewildered and vigilant, and they stopped in place, not daring to move.
"This, isn't this golden light a bit like Yuanshi Tianzun's item?" Peony Fairy asked in surprise. Hearing this, everyone suddenly turned their heads to look at Yuanshi Tianzun. This guy is always so unpredictable... No way, is the old woman really here? So fast? Zhang Yuanqing's heart skipped a beat. But judging from the situation, she doesn't seem to be able to get in. As expected, Slaughter Instances are Instances that even high-ranking individuals can't interfere with... He remained expressionless, saying calmly: "It's a minor matter, don't worry about it." Don't worry about it... Yuanshi Tianzun's attitude is so calm. Does he consider this anomaly to be a minor matter? The team members were secretly surprised.
"Sha Sha..." Stepping on the fallen leaves covering the ground, everyone moved forward slowly. The golden light that constantly pierced through the canopy brought light instead. There was no need for the Fire Master to hold up the torch anymore. While cautiously moving forward and recovering his stamina, Zhang Yuanqing opened the map to check the positions of the four teams.
The light cursor representing the Evil Faction was located in the Forest of Reproduction.
Heh, let these guys enjoy the same pleasure of breasts expanding and contracting... They don't have purification items, so it won't be easy to pass through the Forest of Reproduction... However, the traitor in the team should have revealed the dangers in the forest in advance. They must be prepared... Now that I think about it, the little boy did touch the trees by the roadside every so often, but he didn't mark the trees with numbers.
Without lie detection methods, only Spirit Interrogation can reveal the truth. There's almost no room for trial and error. Thinking of Spirit Interrogation, Zhang Yuanqing stopped and looked at Guan Ya beside him, saying, "Sister Guan Ya, protect me while I look at the memories of 'Human Nature is Evil'."
The mixed-race beauty wearing a vine armor nodded slightly.
Zhang Yuanqing immediately closed his eyes and released the Taiyin Power that wrapped around the Spirit Body of "Human Nature is Evil," completing the devouring. A wave of mental energy filled with intense malice flooded into his sea of consciousness. Because he had used the Demon Subduing Pestle several times, Zhang Yuanqing had already cleared away the mixed consciousness in his body, steadfastly enduring the scourging of evil spirits. Soon, he read the corresponding memories.
——It was Bai Wujinji who ambushed the illusionists of the organization.
It was also Bai Wujinji who knew that Yuanshi Tianzun was ambushing. And the frequent action of Bai Wujinji in the Maze Forest was: touching his ear.
From the memory fragments of "Human Nature is Evil," Zhang Yuanqing saw that there was a small, snail shell-shaped object in the left ear hole of "Bai Wujinji."
Is this the item he used to contact the traitor? A Spirit Instance version of an earpiece?
If that's the case, it's very simple to find out who the traitor is... Zhang Yuanqing opened his eyes, forcibly ending the Spirit Interrogation, and shouted:
"Stop! Everyone stop..."
His voice came to an abrupt end. In front of him, the shadows of the trees were deep, the golden light shone intermittently, and the path led to the depths of the dense forest, but there was not a single person.
Zhang Yuanqing turned his head with a stiff expression, searching for Guan Ya's figure beside him. The space next to him was empty. Guan Ya was gone too.
Everyone had disappeared, disappearing silently, as if he was the only person left in the world. The golden light slowly went out, and the Lady of Three Daos Mountain stopped shooting arrows, frowning in silence. Seeing that she had stopped, the Female Marshal said flatly: "If you form an alliance with me and work for me in the Spirit Instance, I will return that item to you."
A high-ranking Sovereign, no, a half-step Supreme, who can travel through the Spirit Instance world, can do many, many things. "I am free and unfettered, and I will not be bound by anything."
The Lady of Three Daos Mountain was aloof and resolutely refused. The Female Marshal said nothing more. A Sovereign of the Void Sect "hey"ed: "Mountain Deity, why don't you cooperate with us? We can help you retrieve that item and also kill Yuanshi Tianzun to vent your anger." The Lady of Three Daos Mountain glanced at him: "I will not collude with people of the Demon Sect."
She's still a proud and aloof Day Wanderer... The big shot of the Evil Faction glanced at her, his expression unkind. However, being in the Spirit Instance, they should be afraid of this ancient Day Wanderer, because she can easily extinguish everyone's consciousness projection and expel them from the Spirit Instance.
"People of the Demon Sect..." The King of Fear asked:
"Are you from the Song Dynasty, or the Tang Dynasty? But your clothes look like they're from the Ming Dynasty."
The aloof deity completely ignored him, her Luo skirt fluttering as she flew closer to the Slaughter Instance, overlooking the primeval forest in the small world. The King of Fear shrugged his shoulders, "Your disregard makes me very unhappy, but whether you answer or not is your freedom." Staring at a certain place in the forest, at a certain guy who was looking around, the Mountain Deity's cold face suddenly showed a smile. I still have a backup plan!........."Moving Forest, is that what it means?" Zhang Yuanqing frowned. His teammates have all disappeared, and he doesn't even know where they went. He can't delay for too long. The people of the Evil Faction are catching up...…
Without saying a word, Zhang Yuanqing first took out the Demon Subduing Pestle and stabbed it hard into his thigh. After obtaining the power of purification, he turned around and looked around, observing the surrounding environment, confirming that there was no influence of illusions, before confirming that the ability of the Moving Forest was "Space Teleportation." The teammates were really teleported elsewhere. He then began to think about the teleportation mechanism of the Moving Forest:
"The probability is that it only teleports within the Moving Forest and will not teleport to other places; otherwise, the difficulty level and the checkpoints would not match... My position hasn't changed, the leaves at my feet can prove it, so it's the others who were teleported away... "The target of the teleportation, is it a moving object?" As he was analyzing, he heard Jiang Jingwei's full-throated howl in his ear:
"Yuanshi Tianzun, Sister Guan Ya..." Turning his head to look, he saw a red-haired girl walking on the road he had come from, howling as she walked.
That's right, he can rely on shouting to attract his companions. It's a simple and crude method. Sometimes, being simple-minded has its advantages... Zhang Yuanqing stepped forward to meet her, "I'm here." Jiang Jingwei didn't expect that she could really call people out, and she was overjoyed, jumping over like a deer. "I was walking, and suddenly everyone disappeared. Am I caught in your Night Wanderer's ghost wall?
Jiang Jingwei crashed into Zhang Yuanqing's arms, overjoyed.
"It's not a ghost wall, it should be something similar to space teleportation." Zhang Yuanqing asked, "How did they disappear?"
"They just disappeared as we were walking." Jiang Jingwei said. ... Zhang Yuanqing gave up the idea of asking for details and pondered for a moment:
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later!
"Let's hold hands and walk together to see if we get lost. Also, keep shouting, don't stop." The two of them immediately held hands and walked forward together.
Jiang Jingwei walked and howled, but the names she called were only Guan Ya. It seems that Jingwei doesn't have many friends either. That's right, she's not very old, and she spends most of her time at home studying with a tutor. Plus, her identity is sensitive, and the people she's familiar with are probably only her family and the people in Team Two... Zhang Yuanqing thought as he looked around.
Before long, their calls attracted Asano Ryo. The Japanese JK ran from the front, her pure and pretty face filled with ecstasy, like the heroine in a horror movie who finally saw a living person. Zhang Yuanqing glanced at her: "Don't talk nonsense, hold onto me and let's go together. Uh, you have to shout too." The sound waves suddenly increased. In this way, they found one teammate after another. Unlike the previous two, every time Zhang Yuanqing found a teammate, he would ask him to turn his head to the side and show his ear to confirm if there was an earpiece in his ear hole. This also included "The Little Matchstick Boy."
Zhang Yuanqing counted the number of people and found that one person was still missing, and said:
"The tone-deaf person hasn't been found yet, keep shouting... no, stop for a moment.
Everyone, according to my observation and verification, the location where we are will constantly change as we walk; therefore, everyone is scattered in various places in the Moving Forest.
"Staying still will not cause space teleportation, and holding hands will not scatter us." But we still have to move forward. If we don't change this, we will still be constantly space teleporting in the forest, which means that we will always be wandering in the forest and unable to get out. What are your solutions?
"The Evil Faction is catching up with us, time is running out, let's use our brains." He thought everyone would have to discuss it, but then Tianxia Guihuo in the middle of the team said:
"First of all, we need a location. This is the road section of the Maze Forest. We need to understand that spatial movement may be disordered, but it is definitely not continuous. Otherwise, we will never be able to get out, and unsolvable problems will not appear in this small checkpoint.
"So, it must stop at a certain time node. During that time, people traveling here will not move. This node is our opportunity."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Tianxia Guihuo continued:
"It's very simple, just set up a reference point. We start from our current location and write a 1 on the ground, and then write a 2 twenty steps later, and so on.
"Starting from when we write the number 1, when we write to 10 and return to 1 or somewhere else, then the interval from 1 to 10 is the safe time. "After calculating the safe time, it's simple. For example, if the safe time is ten minutes, then we can run wildly for nine minutes and stop in the last minute. Staying still will not be teleported.
"After ten minutes have passed, continue to move forward." Tianxia Guihuo's method was unanimously recognized by everyone.
Immediately, they left numbers on the ground as they moved forward, while shouting the name of the tone-deaf person. When the number reached 15, the tone-deaf person, who heard the call of his companions, finally rushed over and successfully reunited. When the number reached 20, they still had not encountered the numbers left along the way.
"Spatial teleportation should have already happened, but the range of the Moving Forest is too large, and we did not teleport to an area where numbers had been left." Zhang Yuanqing pondered for a moment and said:
"Continue forward!" When they reached 100, the people moving forward saw the number "22" on the ground in front of them.
Zhang Yuanqing's eyes lit up: "A reference point has appeared, start timing." Everyone began to silently count the time and slow down. When they passed the number "45," the "46," which should have been in front of them, turned into "30." "Four minutes, the interval from 22 to 30 is four minutes." White Tiger Wansui shouted.
"Run!" Zhang Yuanqing shouted. In this way, they stopped every two and a half minutes, and finally, after ten minutes, they ran wildly out of this winding, one-way channel without any forks. [Ding! You have successfully passed through the Moving Forest, reward 10 points.]
"We're finally out!" "Great, no one died this time."
"Phew, we're almost out of the Maze Forest, let's hurry to the top of the mountain."
At this moment, Zhang Yuanqing sharply swept his gaze over the crowd: "Who, who got the reward item?"
