It was one of the people from the Mo Family that said this.
When they looked at where it was cold, they found that there was a layer of ice that was covering their hand.
This person from the Mo Family was very confused when they saw this, but they quickly looked around to see if they could find what had caused this layer of ice to form around their hand.
Then all of a sudden, their eyes narrowed.
They had found the source of this ice, but they never expected what they found.
There was a small wraith that was hanging on the shoulder of one of the Falling Willow Temple monks.
This small wraith was just hanging there inside of the collar of this monk and it didn't seem like it was hurting that monk as there was no ice forming. It even seed like they were working together with the way that the wraith hung onto the monk's collar.
Even when the small wraith had been found, it didn't seem like it cared that it was found.
Rather, the small wraith looked right at the one from the Mo Family and the one from the Mo Family thought that they were seeing things, but…
It seed like the small wraith was smiling at them like it was taunting them.
There was no mistaking this, it was clear that this small wraith was taunting them…
As soon as that person from the Mo Family saw this, they imdiately drew one conclusion.
It wasn't just the person from the Mo Family that saw sothing like this, there were many others that saw the sa thing as the one from the Mo Family.
Not all of them were from the Mo Family though.
There were a few other mbers of the Mo Family that saw the sa thing, though the one that the small wraith hung wasn't always soone from the Falling Willow Temple.
Sotis it would be soone from the Tang Family and sotis it would be soone from the Spirit Hall.
Of course, the one that saw the small wraith wasn't always from the Mo Family either.
There were many different sightings of the small wraith and there were many different ways that they saw them.
The only common thing between them was that it was always in an incriminating way that the small wraith was seen.
The small wraith was always hanging onto soone, as if they were close to that person.
It always seed like it was soone who was controlling the small wraith.
In no ti at all, the four groups started to separate from each other.
Even if they were surrounded by the vines, they started separating from each other as if they couldn't trust each other.
That was the case even for those that were close to each other like Falling Willow Temple and the Mo Family or the Spirit Hall and the Tang Family where the sects above them were close.
It seed that the seed of doubt had taken root and there wasn't even the slightest trace of trust between them.
It seed that everyone was afraid of trusting each other out of fear of being stabbed in the back.
So even if they were able to push back the vines, they had to expend much more energy since they weren't working with each other anymore.
It even seed like they were slowly being surrounded because they had moved away from each other and were no longer supporting each other.
The people that were trapped by the vines weren't fools and knew that they were in a dangerous situation.
If they didn't get out of this situation soon, it was only a matter of ti before they were trapped by the vines and killed.
Well, they weren't actually certain what the vines would do to them, but it wasn't as if the vines were attacking them just because they were bored. So it was very likely that their lives would be in danger if they were to let the vines catch them.
They knew that the best thing that they could do was…
"Retreat."
This was said by the leaders of all four groups at the sa ti.
They all recognized that they could no longer fight for the Nine Lives Tree like this.
Right now, it was better for them to retreat and regroup before coming back to take the Nine Lives Tree.
Especially since they couldn't trust any of the others that were here.
So all of them gathered their power and turned around to focus on the vines that were behind them.
They believed that as long as they could leave this clearing, they would be able to escape these vines. After all, the vines had only started attacking them once they entered the clearing.
So as long as they made their way out of the clearing, they would be fine.
It was too bad that there was more than just these vines that were out to get them.

They had been completely surrounded by the vines, so they actually couldn't see what was behind the vines.
There were these small glowing things that suddenly ca out from behind the vines and charged these people.
They had been gathering their power to clear a path in these vines, but they had no choice but to expend this gathered power to stop these glowing things.
They had felt the danger that was coming from these glowing things, so they knew that it would be bad if they allowed these glowing things to approach them.
They couldn't hesitate in their decision and used all their power to attack these glowing things.
It was just too bad that these glowing things were too fast for them to destroy.
Though for the Falling Willow Temple, they were able to use their golden bodies to block these glowing things from approaching them. They were able to push back these glowing things and see their true identity.
They were beetles.
These were beetles that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
But they weren't just any beetles.
These were super powerful beetles that were in the Foundation Realm which was why they could threaten these four groups.
The others that missed didn't completely miss as a few of their attacks hit a few glowing balls, knocking them to the ground. The remaining glowing balls retreated after seeing these few glowing balls being knocked to the ground.
But that wasn't the end of the attack.
"What are these things?" Soone suddenly shouted before small creatures suddenly appeared out of the ground.
They were like little sesa seeds that were completely red in colour that jumped up at the four groups.
All of them tried their best to stop them, but they were soon covered in injuries.
There were just too many of these red things and they were just too small for them to effectively attack. It was like they were being sward by little bugs, which was actually what these things were.
They were a colony of ants that had co out of the ground.
Even though each ant was only in the Peak Qi Gathering Realm, they were still able to cause damage to the four groups since they sward them.
There were at least fifty thousand ants that were here and each one was only around a few centiters long.
It was just impossible for the four groups to block all of these ants.
Well that was except for the Falling Willow Temple, but that ant that their spiritual energy was being drained faster than the others. Keeping up the golden bodies took a lot of spiritual energy and wasn't sothing that could be done for a long period of ti.
The ants took the gaps in between the golden body being up to attack those from the Falling Willow Temple.
It seed that it would only be a matter of ti before they were sward by these ants.
Everyone knew that they had to do sothing or else they wouldn't be able to get out of this place.
The first one to pull out their trump card was the Tang Family.
The leader of the Tang Family group pulled out a small flying sword that seed more like a dagger than a sword, but the aura that this small flying sword released was anything but weak.
This small flying sword released an aura that was far beyond the level of the leader of the Tang Family group.
The other mbers of the Tang Family went forward to block the ants for him as he charged up this small flying sword.
Unfortunately, the leader of the Tang Family group never got the chance to release this small flying sword as he suddenly froze.
"What is going on? Why can't I move my body at all?"
It wasn't just the leader of the Tang Family group that couldn't move, it was all of the Tang Family group mbers that were around him that suddenly froze.
It felt like there was sothing that had paralyzed them as they couldn't feel their limbs.
When they looked around, they found that there was so kind of powder that was floating through the air.
It was so faint that they missed it at first, but then they were able to see it because it reflected the glow from one of the attacks.
This was a powder that was coming from above them.
When they looked up, they were shocked to find that there was a small moth that was flying there.
Even though it was small, the scales that the moth released were enough to paralyze them.
