Hearing Xu Zii’s words, Liu Yiyi asked in confusion, "Junior Brother Lin, what are you talking about?"
"Who is your Junior Brother?" Xu Zii replied, "I think it’s better for you to go down and keep your Senior Sister Huangfu company."
"You," Yin Rong exclaid in surprise, imdiately realizing and saying, "Senior Sister Huangfu was killed by you."
"You should ask her that yourselves," Xu Zii said.
As his voice faded, within the Formation, the giant monster once again lifted its foot with an intent to stomp down.
Xu Zii laughed lightly, and his figure disappeared into the mist.
"He’s gone," from within the mist, the person of the musical rhythm exclaid.
"Don’t rush, after killing his companions, we can slowly deal with him alone," another voice replied.
Seeing this scene, Fang Xiang felt a sense of despair.
He stood with his spear held in front, yelling, "Junior Sister, I’ll hold them off.
You must escape quickly and tell the master everything once you get back to the Sect Gate."
The spear shone with a brilliant light, but ultimately, it was crushed to pieces under the monster’s foot.
Seeing Fang Xiang fall in front of them, the only remaining two girls, Liu Yiyi and Yin Rong, were petrified in shock.
"Junior Brother Lin, whatever you want, we’ll give it to you, just save us," Yin Rong shouted.
Knowing they lacked even the ability to resist, they could only call for help where they stood.
Finally, as the monster’s huge foot stomped down again, everything around grew quiet.
"That guy couldn’t have run away, right?" soone whispered from inside the mist.
"He shouldn’t have, probably hiding," another voice replied.
The mist began to dissipate, leaving only the bodies of Liu Rufeng and the other three on the ground.
The musical trio looked around warily, glanced at each other, and said, "If he got away and returned, how would we explain ourselves? The Ragefire Clan has paid a hefty sum for our services this ti."
"Are you looking for ?" Just as the flute player’s words fell, a voice suddenly sounded behind them.
Followed by a "puh" sound, a long blade penetrated his abdon.
"When did you...?" the flute player struggled to turn around.
The other two quickly shook their bells, while strumming their zithers.
"It’s no use, stop playing," Xu Zii motioned with a slight wave of his hand.
With two resounding "boom" sounds, the zither strings snapped, and the bells shattered.
"What kind of being is this," the two cried out with their eyes split with terror, their complexions drastically changing as they shouted, "Run."
Their figures darted away in two different directions.
"It’s pointless," Xu Zii shook his head slightly.
He held the Heavenly Demon Bow in his hands, and with two "swoosh" sounds, two Demon Arrows flew out at a speed surpassing the speed of sound, instantly nailing the pair to the large trees in the surrounding Misty Forest.
He turned to look at the bodies on the ground, shaking his head slightly, and said, "I didn’t want to kill you, but since I have already obtained the Fusion thod, and you hold no value to be utilized."
Xu Zii patted his hands and walked straight into the Misty Forest.
From the outside, the vast forest exuded dampness and a sense of mystery, as though it were an ancient leviathan silently lurking there.
Within the forest, the trees were ancient, and even in the waning autumn, they remained lush with vegetation, as if it were the beginning of spring.
The forest was shrouded in a mysterious mist, making everything inside invisible.
Unknown and faintly terrifying, such was the initial feeling given by the Misty Forest.
Xu Zii chose to enter from the southeastern entrance and took out the prepared map beforehand.
The map was quite detailed and could help him reach the marshland.
As for the path beyond the marshland, the map showed very few markings, as that area was considered a one-way journey, with a nine in ten chance of death.
One morning, thousands of years ago, the Heavenly Venerate of Ragefire entered here and never ca out again.
As soon as Xu Zii entered, he instantly felt the temperature around him drop significantly.
The air carried a heavy sense of dampness, and fog enveloped everything, obscuring the view of the surroundings and the path ahead.
In Xu Zii’s perception, this fog seed more like a form of energy, a very special kind of energy, rather than actual mist.
Following the map, he moved forward. There were no distinctions of east, south, west, or north here—it seed as if the entire white expanse contained only him.
After walking for a long ti, Xu Zii felt that the circulation of Spiritual Energy inside his body beca slightly obstructed.
It was as if these mists, being breathed into his body, adhered to his ridians like a mbrane, subsequently impeding the speed of his Spiritual Energy circulation.
However, at this mont, Xu Zii discovered sothing very miraculous.
He could barely absorb this Spiritual Energy, but when he cultivated the Extraordinary ridian Manual, he could easily absorb these mists.
Moreover, the previously blocked and hard-to-break-through fifth Extraordinary ridian—the Root chakra—unexpectedly began to activate.
Xu Zii promptly sat down cross-legged, comfortably absorbing this Spiritual Energy.
After a long while, a "bang" could be heard coming from inside his body as the fifth Extraordinary ridian was directly broken through.
Once the Root chakra began to operate, Xu Zii felt the speed of the Spiritual Energy circulating inside his body more than double.
Moreover, what was most important was that before Stepping into Immortality, Xu Zii always felt that he had reached the limit of the human body after becoming a Divine King.
However, looking at the current situation, the complexity of the human body was profound.
He himself had rely been peering through a tube at the broader picture.
Five Extraordinary ridians ford one complete cycle, and just by unblocking a single cycle, he benefited imnsely. What if all thirty-six Extraordinary ridians were to be opened?
Xu Zii wasn’t in a hurry to fuse with the Blood Lizard, instead, he continued to sit and absorb these mists.
Yet, the more he absorbed, the more he felt that the mists needed to unblock the Extraordinary ridians were vast. rely the mists from the outer area were no longer satisfying for him.
Just as Xu Zii was preparing to move forward, suddenly, a "boom" resonated overhead as a huge shadow descended upon him.
He looked up to see a massive mountain bearing down on him.
A rumbling explosion echoed above his head, and Xu Zii seed unafraid, directly throwing a punch toward the mountain.
With a "boom," the mountain shattered into countless pieces of falling rocks.
"Hiss hiss hiss," a strange noise ca from beside him.
He saw a stone creature about a ter tall frothing and flailing on the spot.
The creature’s head was an irregular shape, and like humans, it had two arms and two legs.
When it was curled up, it looked just like any other stone, and Xu Zii hadn’t paid it any mind.
Only when it stood up did it beco clear how special it was.
Seemingly annoyed at its failed sneak attack, the stone was making a ruckus.
"A sprite?" Xu Zii looked on with interest.
He extended his right hand and grabbed the Stone Monster.
Seeing that it couldn’t escape, the Stone Monster simply contracted its arms and legs, transforming back into an ordinary stone.
