A building that eats people?

Everyone was stunned.

The building itself won't eat people; what eats people must be something inside the building that they don't know about.

Master Lin couldn't wait any longer and hurriedly said, "I'll go in and take a look first. You all keep an eye on him."

He immediately rushed into the abandoned building.

There are outstanding disciples of the entire Xuanmen sect in the abandoned building; we absolutely cannot allow anything to happen to them.

Two elders under Fang Zhengqi also hurriedly went inside.

Among them are outstanding disciples from established esoteric sects; they bring people out here, and they are to bring them back safely.

Everyone surrounded the disciple who had escaped death.

The disciple rolled his eyes, clearly terrified.

Mingluo stretched out her finger, and a mysterious spiritual energy swirled around the disciple's head a few times.

The disciple's emotions gradually stabilized.

Mingluo calmly asked, "What exactly happened inside the building?"

The crowd quickly gathered around to listen to the disciple's fragmented account of what happened inside the abandoned building.

After they went in, at first, none of them thought the challenge was that difficult, and they were able to solve it using their respective skills.

As you go further inside, a faint mist gradually rises from the building, enveloping the entire structure.

He thought it was a test and didn't take it to heart.

Then, muffled groans inexplicably came from in front of and behind him...

It felt like someone had their mouth covered and their neck choked, and in that instant, they made no sound.

And something was approaching him from within the fog...

He called out the names of several of his companions, but no one answered, and he couldn't get through on the phone either.

He dared not stay any longer and began to retreat.

The thing within the mist caught up and slowly drained his life force away...

Fortunately, he was carrying a magical artifact passed down in his family, which protected him and cut through the life-sucking binding force, allowing him to escape.

On the way out, he was tripped by someone and realized that it was a companion who had tripped him.

His companion was emaciated and looked ten years older all of a sudden.

He couldn't worry about anything else; he could only try to escape by himself first.

After he finished speaking, he took out a compass from his pocket.

The compass was quite old, but now it was covered in cracks and had no spiritual energy left; it was clearly a piece of junk.

Everyone was quite surprised after hearing this.

Master Gu was taken aback.

"How is that possible? This building has already been cleaned. It's spotless inside, and Old Fang even went in to check it out."

Fang Zhengqi nodded solemnly.

"That's right! It seems someone tampered with it after we checked it out."

Who exactly is the person who did this?

It's not clear yet.

They might be former enemies of the Xuanmen Evil Society. There are always some evil cultivators in this world who do things for bad people.

The Xuanmen Association punishes evil and promotes good, so naturally they are lifelong enemies.

But it could also be someone from a long-established Taoist sect.

After all, if Mingluo wants to subdue them, they can't just sit idly by and wait for Mingluo to come to them.

However, since no one went inside, no one can say for sure.

Minglu comforted the disciple for a few moments, then stood up and said, "I'll go in and take a look."

Master Gu and Fang Zheng said in unison, "We'll go too."

Seeing their anxious expressions, Mingluo realized they clearly wanted to understand what was going on.

These two old people are really worrying; if we don't let them in, they'll probably go crazy outside.

She nodded in agreement and then instructed several elders with considerable skill to each give them a magical artifact, instructing them to protect the curious disciples and prevent anyone from using a diversionary tactic to target the Xuanmen disciples outside.

After giving her instructions, she turned and walked into the building.

Nie Yuchen followed without saying a word.

The atmosphere emanating from this building had a strangely familiar feel to it.

This made him very uneasy.

At that moment, a shrill scream suddenly came from inside the building.

Not long after the screams, Master Lin appeared on the rooftop.

But at this point, Master Lin no longer had the cunning and overly shrewd demeanor he once had.

Instead, his eyes were glazed over, and he looked lost and dejected.

He stood on the top floor, moving forward step by step, with half of his foot already at the edge of the building.

Just one more step forward and he'll fall completely, smashing into a bloody pulp...
