That is Master Wulei.
Master Wulei's arm was pale, and there was a trace of blood on his collar.
He lost an arm but had it regenerated using a Treasure dicine.
"What happened?"
Zhang Jian looked towards Pursuing Star True Monarch beside him.
Pursuing Star True Monarch sighed.
"Wulei's luck wasn't good, he encountered the Demon God of the Celestial Wolf Mansion in the Barbaric Region, and barely escaped with his life!"
"Celestial Wolf Mansion?"
Zhang Jian slightly furrowed his brows, knowing it's a major power of the Demon Race.
The power of Celestial Wolf Mansion is not weaker than the Celestial Fox Palace he's dealt with before.
Pursuing Star True Monarch pondered briefly, then spoke to Master Wulei.
"Senior Nephew Wulei, since you're severely injured, you should return to the Sect first. As for the affair with Celestial Wolf Mansion, we'll seek justice for you!"
Master Wulei glanced at the other five upon hearing this, his expression sowhat hesitant.
It was hard enough to enter, leaving now made him feel unwilling.
Master Wulei deliberated for a mont, nodded, and said: "Alright, even if I enter the inner layer, I probably can't be of much help. I ask all senior uncles, senior brothers, and senior sisters to be careful!"
He barely managed a slight smile.
True Monarch Zijing patted him on the shoulder, comforting, "You'll have another chance next ti!"
The expressions of Linghe Master and Siming Master, two female cultivators, remained unchanged, indicating an indifferent relationship with Master Wulei.
After everyone's discussion, Master Wulei turned back, preparing to leave the Xiyue Grotto Heaven the way he ca.
True Monarch Zijing's gaze had already noticed the Taiyin Fairy behind Zhang Jian, and at this mont asked.
"Senior Nephew, who is this...?"
"She's my subordinate, also a descendant of the forr Xiyue Sword Sect!"
Zhang Jian casually replied without much explanation, but it still caught the attention of the other five Primordial Spirit Great Cultivators.
But since Zhang Jian was unwilling to elaborate, they didn't press further.
The remaining six did not delay further and transford into streaks of light flying towards the inner layer.
Amidst the Golden Crow Escape Light, Zhang Jian's gaze swept around the surrounding void.
This was a vast, desolate earth with a massive area, floating in the void.
The spiritual chanism of heaven and earth on the earth was extrely faint.
Zhang Jian noticed that the environnt here was much harsher than the middle layer.
In the middle layer, the Taiyin Spiritual chanism was dense, and there was even a newly-born Taiyin Spirit Vein.
Here, not only was the spiritual chanism dim, but there were gravitational forces, gravitational distortion, collapses, and countless gravitational rifts in the void, a careless step could lead into other spatial storms.
In the distance, Zhang Jian saw large areas of ruins and relics.
Rows of already weathered, petrified houses and pavilions, only leaving behind a few disordered standing columns.
The radiance of the East Emperor's Treasure Mirror spun, but there was no harvest within the mirror light.
The other five each used their own probing thods, with True Monarch Zijing's eyes emitting a faint purple light, clearly a powerful pupil technique.
Pursuing Star True Monarch had six peculiar objects erging around him, resembling eyeballs, each silver-white, floating out to scan the surroundings, very eerie.
"They must be eyeball-type Magical Treasures, probably the eyeballs of so Exotic Beast refined by this senior uncle into insight-type Spirit Treasures!"
Zhang Jian noticed that within a turn of those eyeballs, Pursuing Star True Monarch retrieved several pieces of middle-grade spiritual object Green Origin Stone from within the ruins.
As for Siming Master's thod, it seed much more normal; she had a pouch tied to her waist.
Inside the pouch was an Exotic Beast.
The beast resembled a fox and mouse, only the size of a fox, yet moved like the wind, with an extraordinarily sensitive nose capable of detecting various scents, and radiating considerable energy.
It was a Primordial Spirit Level Demon King Spirit Pet.
This was indeed a demonstration of wealth and power.
The group continued their search, passing several high mountains, they discovered more complete Danque relics at the front.
Monts later, Thousand Blades Mountain Peak appeared before them.
Yet this mountain peak was strange, as if forcibly twisted and its upper half severed by so terrifying power.
It was toppled, lying slantingly above the valley, where more Danque, constructions, could be seen below, many still radiating the power of Forbidden Technique Spiritual Light.
However, the six looked at this scene while concealing their forms and energies tightly, sticking to a giant boulder, peering through it, to find a massive entity slumbering soundly beneath the mountain peak.
The massive entity resembled a terrifying sludge piled atop many valley constructions, a hundred feet high like a dam.
From afar, the group sensed an aura of terrifying Demonic Qi emanating from it.
"This creature seems to be the Gluttony Demon God!"
Pursuing Star True Monarch looked solemn.
Siming Daoist cast a glance inside, Liu i slightly furrowed, her eyes filled with intense disdain.
"Uncle Master, this is the rumored Gluttony Demon God, it indeed looks strange!"
Zhang Jian also swept a glance, seeing in the valley a monstrous fleshy sphere lying there, like a mound of sludge in the valley, its entire body resembling a gigantic atball, covered with countless whip-like tendrils, full of pore-like mouths inhaling and exhaling Demonic Qi.
The several Primordial Spirit Masters nearby sensed the intensity of this demon's Demonic Qi, each furrowing their brows.
Pursuing Star True Monarch spoke in a deep voice.
"The Gluttony Demon God is a type of Outer Demon God, part of a race. They are all descendants of the Outer Demon God 'Gluttony God Master.' They are born with strange Divine Dao Authority and Gluttony Techniques, a very formidable kind of Outer Demon God. Let's avoid this place!"
Siming Master glanced at the few remaining strands of Spiritual Light deep within the valley, slightly puzzled.
"Master Uncle, this creature shouldn't be that strong. With our numbers, it shouldn't be difficult to kill it!"
The crowd was also sowhat surprised.
Pursuing Star True Monarch was actually unwilling to provoke this Outer Demon God.
The intensity of the Demonic Qi emanating from this Outer Demon God is not too extre, not exceeding the True Immortal Level, as Siming Master had ntioned, capturing it shouldn't be too hard.
The palatial Spiritual Light beneath it is bright and should hold so value!
Pursuing Star True Monarch smiled slightly and communicated secretly.
"Did you all take a close look at the style of these broken ruins?!"
With his reminder, everyone turned their gaze and looked at the faintly remaining few structures in the valley, resembling large palaces.
Just a glance, and Siming Master's expression changed slightly, unable to restrain herself.
"These look sowhat similar to the Alchemy Rooms left by our Second Generation Ancestor Masters on each peak! Could it be...?"
Her expression was surprised, and the others were all astute as well.
Indeed, Pursuing Star True Monarch spoke in a deep voice.
"If I'm not mistaken, this should have been the place where the Xiyue Sword Sect once practiced Alchemy!
Look closely, there are still many Spirit Fields and traces of pest-prevention Forbidden Techniques in the dicinal Fields around here!
So many years have passed, there's unlikely to be anything of significant value inside!
Even if there were any Elixirs, their dicinal properties probably depleted long ago. We have no reason to risk our lives for so worthless things!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian showed no change in his expression, but privately he agreed with Pursuing Star True Monarch's reasoning.
The most crucial point was that there were many monsters around. Even if they expended great effort to deal with these creatures, they would face the situation where others would co and pick up the spoils after them, which was unnecessary.
True Monarch Zijing glanced and then said, "Let's bypass this area!"
Everyone nodded slightly; Taiyin Fairy had been silently following Zhang Jian from the beginning, expressing no opinion.
The group bypassed the valley and continued searching the ruins ahead.
"Let's leave this place and speed up. It looks like this area has been searched, and valuable treasures are limited!"
Zhang Jian suggested, as the East Emperor's Treasure Mirror swept the surroundings above his head, where there were many Star Beasts and Demon Fiends.
And the legacy treasures of the Xiyue Sword Sect ntioned by Taiyin Fairy should be in the innermost layers.
In the depths of the Xiyue Sword Sect's main stronghold.
"Alright!"
Pursuing Star True Monarch and True Monarch Zijing exchanged glances and nodded silently; they were not too interested in ordinary items.
The few of them quickened their pace.
As they quickly approached the central area of the continent, they saw a chubby figure appearing before the valley after a mont.
This was a well-to-do figure with a warm smile on his face.
He imdiately saw the rolling ball sleeping soundly in the center of the valley and murmured slightly.
"Disgusting creature!"
As he thought, he instantly traversed the void, and a majestic, violent Divine Power swept out. The large form of the Gluttony Demon God had not awakened yet when it was instantly pinned under a giant golden copper coin. The Gluttony Demon God, struck by this giant golden copper coin, appeared dazed, dancing in the golden light as if foolish.
Nurous violent Demonic Qi emanated from its body, as if a terrifying Demonic Sound burst forth from it, the Gluttony Demon God in the dark air forming a massive black hole as if devouring the heavens. But no matter how it struggled, it continued to rotate under the golden light, seemingly unable to escape its grasp.
This affluent middle-aged man looked on gleefully.
"Money can communicate with the gods!"
With a wave of his hand, clusters of golden copper coins flew out, instantly enveloping the palaces in the valley.
The golden light shattered the Forbidden Spiritual Light of the Danque, and soon the true appearance was revealed. The well-fed middle-aged man's eyes imdiately grew serious.
The Alchemy Rooms inside were empty.
There were still a few dicine Tripods and Jade Gourds, which the well-fed middle-aged man casually picked up and inspected, only to see that the Spiritual Pills inside had long been rendered rock-like.
The Elixirs had turned to stone!
"Dammit!"
Witnessing this, the smiling eyes of the well-fed middle-aged man instantly took on a dangerous tone.
In thin anger, he casually crushed the gourds into fragnts and, with a sweep of golden light, suppressed the Gluttony Demon God's True Body, grinding its hundred-foot Demon Body into a atball, then pinching it into golden dust scattered into the void before disappearing in an instant.
"Hmm?"
On the ground, a group of people had already approached the inner central layer, confronted by a magnificent massif appearing before them, simulating a connection from heaven to earth, towering at the center of the floating continent, with the Divine Mountain reaching into the outer heavens.
At this mont, Zhang Jian stood firm, his eyes staring behind him with an expression of astonishnt.
"Junior Zhang, what's the matter?"
Nearby, Pursuing Star True Monarch noticed Zhang Jian's unusual expression.
"Master Uncle, I have a sudden foreboding, perhaps we should be more cautious from now on!"
Zhang Jian's expression was slightly solemn.
He rarely had such a strong sense of foreboding.
