At this mont, Yun Xiao naturally wouldn't hold back intentionally. The lake surface was full of strange spirits, and any delay might lead to being caught by the low-rank ninth-grade alien spirit leader behind him. By then, it would be too late to escape.
Yun Xiao also knew that even a low-rank ninth-grade alien spirit couldn't fly. Now that he had summoned his Thunder Wings, that low-rank ninth-grade alien spirit leader could only look in envy, right?
Although this ant that his possession of "Flying ridian Techniques" might spread across the entire Tenglong Continent, he couldn't afford to worry about that now at such a crucial mont.
Just as Yun Xiao flew over the lake, about to pass those low-ranked strange spirits to reunite with Xu Hongzhuang, Ling Wan, and others, the lake surface suddenly underwent so abnormal changes.
In one part of the lake, large clusters of water bubbles appeared, causing the low-rank water attribute strange spirits gathered there to explode suddenly, as if they had been subjected to so extrely powerful attack.
Splish! Splash!
The exploding water attribute strange spirits dropped Spirit Crystals into the lake, giving the human geniuses who had escaped to the opposite shore a clearer view, though they had yet to realize the impending danger.
"Go! Quick, go!"
Flying in the sky, Yun Xiao felt a strong sense of warning in his heart. Suddenly thinking of sothing, his face changed dramatically, and he shouted loudly. Xu Hongzhuang, Ling Wan, and the others, who had great trust in him, detected the urgency in his tone, causing their expressions to shift as they hurriedly ran toward the exit.
Behind them, Ye Ku, Luo Fusheng, and others followed quickly. However, aside from these geniuses who had faith in Yun Xiao, so others still wanted to see the excitent.
These geniuses thought that since they had already escaped the danger zone of Lake Heart Island and the many strange spirits seed to have lost interest in attacking for the mont, it might be better to watch the situation unfold first.
But in the next mont, these geniuses knew how foolish their decision was, and it left them with extre regret in their final monts.
Splish!
Another splash sounded, and this ti it wasn't the sound of the water attribute strange spirits exploding. Instead, a massive water column suddenly rose from the place where the bubbles had been before.
This water column was not shooting straight up but waved around like a giant Vein Demon's tentacle above the lake. Finally, from an extrely tricky angle, it lashed hard onto Yun Xiao above.
Even with Yun Xiao's reflexes, there was no ti to make any move at that mont. Fortunately, he summoned the Earth Burst Stone Lotus Armor instantly, which prevented him from sustaining severe injuries from this sudden attack.
However, the strength of this force was enormous. Even though Yun Xiao's physical strength was just a step away from breaking through to the level of ninth-grade Vein Demon, he was still sent flying backward and crashed hard onto the ground of Lake Heart Island with a loud noise.
"What is that?"
When everyone saw this scene, their faces turned pale with horror. The geniuses still watching from the inner periter seed to understand what Yun Xiao's earlier shout was all about and began to move their steps, planning to exit this extrely dangerous area.
However, it was already too late. The giant water column tentacle that had dragged Yun Xiao back to Lake Heart Island swept horizontally in the next mont, targeting the opposite shore of Lake Heart Island. So geniuses near the shore t with tragedy instantly.
Bang! Bang! Bang...
A series of sounds spread out, as the massive water column tentacle attacked indiscriminately, striking over a dozen human geniuses. These geniuses didn't have Yun Xiao's reaction speed or his powerful physical strength.
So under such a forceful sweep, over a dozen geniuses imdiately suffered broken bones and died, marking the first large-scale casualties since entering the seventh layer of Xuanyin Cave.
Even under the siege of countless strange spirit armies earlier, everyone could barely protect themselves. Who knew that just as they were about to escape the danger zone, a sudden water column erging from the lake could cause them such significant losses?
"Run!"
With the prior example of over a dozen people tragically dying, the remaining geniuses turned paler and lost any interest in sightseeing, hurriedly fleeing toward the exit.
Splish! Splash! Splish!
At this mont, waves surged on the lake surface. The escaping geniuses caught in the corner of their eyes a terrifying sight of water columns continually erging from the lake, densely packed in an instant, nearly obscuring the situation on Lake Heart Island.
"Yun Xiao, it's over!"
When people vaguely saw the blurry figure on Lake Heart Island, many felt deep emotions, believing that the coarse-clothed young man, who had brilliantly assisted everyone in escaping to safety with his strength, might now have no way to survive.
Not to ntion the low-rank ninth-grade alien spirit. Yun Xiao might not be able to handle it, and now the tentacles rising from the lake had power far beyond these human geniuses' imagination.
They have reason to believe that this thing suddenly erging from the lake surface is definitely countless tis stronger than the low-level Ninth Rank Alien Spirit leader. In the face of such a thing, Yun Xiao, no matter how many tricks he has, will be defeated with grief, right?
However, at this mont, when disaster strikes, everyone flies individually. Among these Tenglong Continent talents, except for a few individuals, no one has deep ties with Yun Xiao. Naturally, at this ti, preserving one's own life cos first.
As for Xu Hongzhuang, Ling Wan, and the others, they are also anxious, but they did not retreat because they know that with their strength, staying would not only fail to help Yun Xiao but might also beco a burden for him. It's better not to ss things up.
But deep in their hearts, they actually share the sa thoughts as those geniuses, perhaps with a little more hope, hoping that Yun Xiao has so unknown ans of escaping from the hands of such a powerful enemy.
However, all of this beca aningless after these geniuses fled from the seventh level entrance. Whether that young boy in coarse clothes is dead or alive, or how long he can hold on, they simply cannot know.
Moreover, due to the previous incidents, these talents did not intend to linger in the Xuanyin Cave any longer. Everyone rushed upwards at great speed and reached the first layer exit of Xuanyin Cave in just half a day.
......
Outside the Xuanyin Cave!
Master Xuan Yin, Xue Tianao, has many important matters; naturally, he cannot always guard the entrance of the Xuanyin Cave. But after finishing his tasks today, he routinely ca to take a look.
It's worth ntioning that Xue Ningxiang, due to personal stakes, has been guarding the entrance of Xuanyin Cave for this period, seemingly expecting sothing. However, after ten days have passed, no movent has been heard from within the cave.
"I wonder if those youngsters who entered the Xuanyin Cave this ti can co out safely?"
Xue Tianao glanced at his daughter and asked a rather aningless question, though he wasn't too worried. After all, they are all Tenglong Continent's geniuses who should have so self-preservation ans.
"I only care who can get the Illusion Yin Grass!"
Xue Ningxiang's beautiful eyes sparkled with a glimr of light; when she ntioned "Illusion Yin Grass," a coarse clothed figure with a wooden sword flashed in her mind, making her face show a hint of shy anger as she forcibly drove that image out of her mind.
"In my opinion…"
Whoosh!
Just as Xue Tianao wanted to say sothing, he suddenly heard the wind at the entrance of Xuanyin Cave, followed by a figure flashing out, looking quite miserable, with a very chaotic aura.
"Changsheng?"
For this figure, Xue Tianao is naturally not unfamiliar because it is none other than the Xuanyin Hall's top young prodigy, Gu Changsheng. At this mont, Gu Changsheng's body was evidently severely injured; as soon as he rushed out of the cave, he sat down heavily on the ground, gasping for breath.
Gu Changsheng, hailing from Xuanyin Hall, was naturally most familiar with Xuanyin Cave. So, along the way, he ignored Chen Zhiheng and, in the end, was the first to rush out of Xuanyin Cave.
Upon seeing Master Xuan Yin, Xue Tianao, Gu Changsheng finally felt the danger was over. No matter how strong the creature within the cave, it couldn't possibly be a match for the Heavenly Rank Expert Xue Tianao, right?
While Gu Changsheng may be the Xuanyin Hall's top prodigy, he is not Xue Tianao's direct disciple. The Master Xuan Yin never takes disciples; the one he wants to cultivate wholeheartedly is his precious daughter.
However, Xue Tianao still regards this outstanding young mber of Xuanyin Hall highly. At this mont, sensing the severe injuries within Gu Changsheng's body, his expression changes slightly, pondering what in Xuanyin Cave could have wounded Gu Changsheng so badly.
"Brother Changsheng, what happened?"
Though Xue Ningxiang had seen Gu Changsheng's true nature once, she was curious about what had happened inside Xuanyin Cave, hence asked directly. This question stirred so intriguing decisions in Gu Changsheng's mind.
"It was Yun Xiao; he's the one who seriously injured !"
Gu Changsheng cald his mind, finally stood up, saluted Xue Tianao first, then spoke a fact with a tone holding a hint of resentnt.
"Yun Xiao? Isn't he still at the Late Stage of the Seeking Origin Realm?"
Upon hearing this, Xue Ningxiang was slightly stunned, while Xue Tianao pondered, considering Yun Xiao's cultivation. If even a young boy in the Late Stage of the Seeking Origin Realm couldn't be beaten, then the title of Xuanyin Hall's top prodigy would be a misnor, reflecting poorly on Xuanyin Hall.
"Gu Changsheng, did you go looking for trouble with Yun Xiao again?"
At this mont, Xue Ningxiang finally ca to her senses; recalling Gu Changsheng's deanor observed in the Spiritual Pill Courtyard, she felt a surge of anger, imdiately questioning him, leaving Xue Tianao and the elder guarding Xuanyin Cave in astonishnt.
