Not far from the house, empty medicine bottles and blood-stained gauze were piled up like a mountain, untouched by anyone. A stench filled the air, and flies swarmed around.

If Xiao Jia hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that there could be such a desolate place in the immortal realm.

Even the ruins of the Five Spirits Sect weren't this filthy!

There was an immortal meditating with his eyes closed, guarding the entrance.

Xiao Jia carefully observed his surroundings and, after confirming that there was only one enemy, took out the hypnotic powder that the headmistress had made to deal with other monsters in the snowfield, mixed it with wind magic, and slapped it at the enemy.

After a few breaths,

"thump--"

Sure enough, the immortal swayed, fell to the ground, and began to snore.

Xiao Jia ran over, pried open his mouth, and poured a whole bottle of sleeping powder inside: "Go to sleep!"

This bottle of hypnotic powder can make this immortal sleep for a month!

Time was of the essence. Even though he hated the bandits who had kidnapped the pangolin demon, he didn't want to act rashly and jeopardize the rescue.

Stepping inside, I realized it was more like a prison.

The spiritual energy wall formed by the array divides the space into small individual rooms, each containing only a bed, with the area of ​​movement limited to the passageway beside the bed.

The nuns lay on the bed, their clothes tattered and hair disheveled, some even in handcuffs. Hearing the noise, they huddled trembling in the corner of the bed.

Xiao Jia moved quickly around the house, reaching out to tap on the spiritual energy walls.

The spiritual energy wall flashed with golden array patterns.

Fortunately, all these spiritual energy walls share the same formation. After a simple calculation, the core of the formation is in the second to last room!

He rushed over and bowed to the woman in the private room: "Miss, there's a magic core in your room. Would you like to help me destroy it? I need to rescue you all!"

The woman, huddled in the corner of the bed, had disheveled hair that obscured her face. Seemingly startled, she looked up timidly, her fearful and wary gaze peeking out from beneath her messy hair, resembling a madwoman.

After she degenerated, scales grew on her body, and half of her body reverted to its beastly form, with the connecting parts deformed and eerily strange.

After lifting her hair, her face was covered with mottled scabs, as if the scales had just been peeled off and had not yet healed.

Xiao Jia's gaze swept over the woman, finally settling on her face. Her thick eyelashes fluttered, and tears welled up with anger. She exclaimed in astonishment, "Aunt Rui'an?!"

The succubus tilted her head as if she had amnesia, trying to recall for a long time before murmuring, "Who...are you?"

"Aunt Rui'an! It's me, Rui Xiaorui! How did you end up like this?!" Xiao Jia tried to rush over to help her, but instead crashed into a wall of spiritual energy. Anger surged within his dantian, and the spiritual energy he emitted formed thick scales protecting him.

His parents were demon beasts, and Ryan was like his biological mother to him, teaching him the most basic breathing techniques and guiding him to the sect's trials.

The last time I saw my aunt was during her Nascent Soul tribulation.

I thought she had ascended to the Immortal Realm, but now she's fallen to this state?!

Could it be that this "Invisible" thing wiped out all the pangolin demon beasts in the entire Immortal Realm?!

“Xiao Rui, it really is you! That’s great, you’ve fully formed your core…” Rui’an climbed off the bed, staggered to the other side of the spiritual energy wall, stretched out his paws and pressed them against the wall, grinned, revealing a mouthful of rotten teeth, “That’s great! It’s a human face, it’s a human body, that’s great, I can’t even see a single scale…”

Demon cultivators can control the transformation of their bodies during cultivation, and are capable of killing their offspring or even committing suicide. In order to preserve their realm, they use some kind of evil magic to control them.

In matters of reproduction, demon cultivators and mortals are similar; pangolin demon cultivators can only give birth to one offspring per litter. The Wuxing and others found this inefficient and used a sinister method to make them conceive more than ten times each time, then selecting the best offspring and killing the others in the womb.

The demon cultivators cried out in agony, yet were powerless to escape, suffering immense torment and torture, driving many to madness.

The key to the formation was in Rui'an's house. Every day she tried her best to destroy it, but she couldn't get any power out of it. Her dantian was destroyed, riddled with holes.

Xiao Jia had no choice but to force his way through from the outside, which required using spiritual energy to break down the array's structure.

“Xiao Rui, I’m your Aunt Qiu Hua, do you remember me?” In the opposite cubicle, a female cultivator, hunched over, leaned weakly against the spiritual energy wall, advising, “Xiao Rui, you should escape on your own. Once, an immortal rescued us and we all returned to the Lower Immortal Realm. But in the end, we were all captured and brought back. It’s no use; they have absolute power, and the world belongs to them. We don’t want to implicate you. If you have a way to hide safely, then keep hiding and don’t come back.”

The worst fears have come true; some of the people imprisoned here have long since lost their will to fight.

Xiao Jia rarely gets angry, but now he couldn't control his rage. "Ling Mu is outside drawing away the enemy for everyone, and I risked my life to sneak in and rescue you all. Please don't lose heart! I have a way to hide safely, and I also have a way to get you to hide there too. Even if they have all the power, they would never dare to attack the Hundred Beasts Garden! If you want to give up now, then go back to your beds and don't try to discourage me!"

Ryan, leaning against the wall of spiritual energy, shouted in a hoarse voice, "I believe in Xiao Rui!! He's the child I've taken care of since he was little. He was able to find this continent from the lower immortal realm; he must have already ascended. He definitely has the ability to rescue us! We must help him!"

"Yes, you don't want to live, but we do! What kind of life is it to lie here like this? We want to get out, let us out!"

"I'd rather die out there than stay in this godforsaken place!"
