As expected.
Just as they left the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein, they sensed two Foundation Establishnt Cultivators approaching. The aura was vaguely above Fang Xiaolin and the other two, not yet at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishnt, but certainly not ordinary Early Stage cultivators.
When Feng Jue noticed the presence of these two people, the arrivals from the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks also beca aware of their presence.
"Thankfully, we have Han Li."
Feng Jue sighed with relief. If they had been a mont later, they would have been blocked by the cultivators from the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks.
After a mont of relief, Feng Jue’s thoughts moved. A Tier Two Lower Grade Divine Movent Talisman suddenly appeared in his hand, increasing his flying speed by another thirty percent as he sped off in another direction, not sparing the talisman’s energy.
Luckily, after chasing for thirty to fifty miles, the two from the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks realized they could not catch up and chose to abandon the chase.
However, Feng Jue did not dare to be careless. He still flew at full speed while taking out a Sound Transmission Talisman to ssage Han Li, "Fellow Daoist Han, reinforcents from the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks have arrived. The matters concerning the Celestial Extinction Ruins this ti are no small affair and might attract the attention of those of the Golden Core level. Be cautious. If needed, seek out at the Wind and Cloud Immortal City."
Han Li’s ability to kill Fang Xiaolin proved his strength. Feng Jue needed soone trustworthy and capable, and none fit the bill better than Han Li. So even though Han Li was marked with a Soul Mark, Feng Jue was willing to lend a hand.
On the other side, after receiving Feng Jue’s transmission, Wen Jiu still didn’t respond. When the Three Corpses quickly retracted the Twelve Spirit Control Array and returned, he rejoined the group. Shan Yue Ru simply assud Wen Jiu had an upset stomach and didn’t ask further.
Normally, it would be an insult to a cultivator if they still needed to use the restroom. However, given that Wen Jiu had only been cultivating for a short ti, it’s understandable that he would need to attend to such matters for so long.
anwhile, the restrictions overhead had mostly faded away, and the pervasive Soul-devouring Ghost Qi began to slowly dissipate.
Seeing this, Ye Chen and the others were overjoyed.
Wen Jiu feigned joy as well, while internally calculating how to help Deadman Peak through this ordeal.
After much consideration, Wen Jiu decided that temporarily keeping things under wraps was for the best. Fang Xiaolin’s soul mory hadn’t managed to report the situation inside the Celestial Extinction Ruins, and once the restrictions were activated, they couldn’t send ssages out, so those from the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks had only received Fang Xiaolin’s distress signal.
Although the matters regarding the Golden Core Technique would be exposed a year later when the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks disciples co out of Celestial Extinction Mountain, it’s better to delay for a year rather than encounter the sa fate as the Moon Extre Sect now.
"If the Foundation Establishnt cultivators from the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks ask you later, this is how you should reply..." Wen Jiu secretly transmitted to Eastern Celestial City.
When Eastern Celestial City heard that the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks cultivators were unaware of the Golden Core Technique, he was overjoyed. He had also thought of these concerns, which made him quite anxious.
But upon hearing from Wen Jiu that they could conceal it, Eastern Celestial City was utterly delighted.
"At most, we can only hide it for a year. Once the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks disciples erge from Celestial Extinction Mountain, it will still be exposed." Wen Jiu transmitted again, not giving Eastern Celestial City too many illusions.
Eastern Celestial City nodded in acknowledgnt, transmitting back, "It’s better than facing it today... Regardless, thank you Fellow Daoist Wen. After returning to the sect, I will surely reward you handsoly, and I will look for more Evil Yin Spiritual dicine for you."
"Mm-hmm."
Wen Jiu replied through transmission, saying no more.
Shortly thereafter, as the Soul-devouring Ghost Qi dissipated significantly, Wen Jiu sensed two Foundation Establishnt Cultivators entering the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein, swiftly approaching upon detecting the aura of Eastern Celestial City and others.
One newcor was clad in azure, the other in black, both exuding an aura faintly above Fang Xiaolin’s, their imposing mannerisms making it difficult for ordinary Qi Refining Cultivators to even look directly at them, pressing people like Yanyue to keep their heads down.
From Fang Xiaolin’s soul mory, Wen Jiu instantly recognized the two; they were the guardians from the Far North and Far South.
Compared to the Foundation Establishnt Cultivators from the central Shen Yun Mountain Range, these two were closest to the Far West, so they naturally arrived the fastest.
"Great Elder of Deadman Peak, Eastern Celestial City, greets the two Guardians." Eastern Celestial City kept his stance very humble, not positioning himself entirely as an equal to the other cultivators, maintaining the due respect.
The guardians from the Far North and Far South knew of Eastern Celestial City and had encountered him before. Seeing Eastern Celestial City had already reached Foundation Establishnt, they were sowhat surprised and slightly wary.
The situation within the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein was unclear. While much of the Soul-devouring Ghost Qi had dispersed, they still couldn’t sense the aura of Fang Xiaolin and his group. After exchanging a glance, the two allowed their Magical Artifacts to fall into their hands.
Eastern Celestial City remained calm, maintaining his previous stance as he respectfully stated, "To report to the two Guardians, the Foundation Breaking thod was personally explained to by Guardian Fang, intending for to seize the top spot in the Celestial Extinction Ruins and acquire Foundation Establishnt Items.
If the two Guardians do not believe, you may ask Guardian Fang later. If there are any discrepancies, I am at your disposal."
Upon hearing this and observing Eastern Celestial City’s expression, they believed him three parts, then the azure-clad Elder Cultivator from the Far North promptly asked, "Two days ago, I received a distress ssage from Fellow Daoist Fang, do you know what happened?"
As he asked this, the two were still probing their Divine Sense into the Celestial Extinction Yin Vein, without imdiately moving to enter.
Promptly, Eastern Celestial City began explaining truthfully, starting from how the Soul-devouring Ghost Qi began wantonly killing after erging from the Celestial Extinction Ruins. He also ntioned why he chose to hide here, whereas regarding Fang Xiaolin and his peers’ situation, Eastern Celestial City feigned ignorance and explained bitterly, "I have just established my Foundation, not yet practiced the Foundation Establishnt Technique. On several occasions, I intended to venture inside to investigate, but I have children to protect behind , so I could only hide in this mountain temporarily to guard them."
