"You said before that you were too embarrassed to go to the other five divine beasts because of the influence of demonic energy. In other words, you are able to sense the existence of the other five divine beasts, right?" Chen Sangruo asked Qiyan.

"Yes, theoretically, the five divine beasts can sense each other's presence, but I don't know the specific principle behind it. Perhaps it's due to the special bond between the five divine beasts?"

As she spoke, Qi Yan understood what she wanted to do. "You want me to try to contact the Azure Dragon?"

The scene that the true Azure Dragon saw was very likely different from what they saw. It had been tampered with by evil cultivators, which is why it mistook them for evil cultivators and summoned its avatars to attack them.

If she guessed correctly, the real Azure Dragon might not be in the same space as them, but rather something like a parallel universe.

Just like the barrier space that the elders of the Taichu Sect used to protect the Starry Plains treasure, it is in the same place, but it is a completely different space.

As long as we can get in touch with Qinglong and explain the situation to him, all the problems will be solved.

"Understood, I will give it a try."

Then Qi Yan's voice disappeared from her mind.

She immediately informed the group that was being chased by the Azure Dragon incarnation.

"Hang in there a little longer, Qi Yan is already trying to contact the Azure Dragon." After saying that, he waved a fan towards the feet of the crowd to replenish the wind.

She can hover in the air, giving her a wider range of movement, so the Azure Dragon basically doesn't have to exert any effort to hit her.

But she couldn't just watch her other companions being chased, after all, they were a small team from the Ninghua Sect, so she used the wind to speed them up, which saved them a lot of effort.

Ye Huai would also randomly bring someone along to fly with him on his sword, and then change to the next person after a period of time.

The group is currently in relatively good condition; they are not about to die from exhaustion here.

Upon hearing Shen Sangruo's words, they were overjoyed. Song Weiyan and Fang Yu were so excited that they almost cried.

“Even the donkeys in the next village don’t dare to run like this; they at least need to rest for a while,” Fang Yu said, panting heavily as he ran.

"If you put a plow behind us, we could plow the entire cultivation world," Song Weiyan said.

They were a group of Nascent Soul cultivators, proud and ambitious young talents, among the most powerful of the younger generation in the cultivation world.

Now, however, he is being chased by the most basic physical attacks, and the exciting battle he had imagined is nowhere to be seen.

However, they cannot attack the Azure Dragon incarnation, and even have to avoid being caught by it if they are injured in the process.

I've never experienced anything so humiliating and disgraceful in my life.

Qinglong: Alright, you've gone through it now.

Meanwhile, in another dimension, the Azure Dragon was manipulating its avatar, desperately chasing after a group of "evil cultivators" in front of it.

The scenery in this space is completely different from where Shen Sangruo and the others are.

It wasn't in the palace of the Hall of Ten Thousand Spirits, but in a desolate place that looked like the edge of the cultivation world.

This is where the Azure Dragon is stationed. The five divine beasts have not clearly defined their respective areas of residence, but evil cultivators often appear here and cause trouble.

They intended to develop this remote place into their stronghold and grow stronger thereafter.

As a result, Qinglong discovered it, thwarted the evil cultivators' scheme, and has been closely monitoring the situation here ever since.

Because those heretical practitioners are really annoying, even after they left, they still didn't give up and wanted to make a comeback.

They made several underhanded moves, both overt and covert, and even tried to dig out a hideout underground.

The Azure Dragon, thoroughly annoyed, made this place its residence, and would come to inspect it every now and then.

After it warned that group of evil cultivators ten thousand years ago, they never appeared again, nor did they cause any more trouble.

Strangely enough, ever since then, all the evil cultivators in the cultivation world have seemed to have hidden themselves away, and in the past ten thousand years, it has rarely seen any evil cultivators.

But it still didn't let its guard down. Those evil cultivators were capable of anything and were more troublesome than flies. What if they were just trying to confuse it?

Fortunately, it has been keeping an eye on them. Now it has caught the evil cultivator who wanted to do evil again.

It just didn't expect that after ten thousand years, this group of evil cultivators would become so powerful that just a few of them could completely restrict the abilities of its five divine beasts.

To stop the evil cultivation, it could only resort to the most primitive physical attacks.

Although it was an avatar, the energy consumed was only greater than it was less. Coupled with the limitation on his own abilities, the Azure Dragon was already panting heavily.

"Are these evil cultivators reincarnated donkeys? They can run so fast."

At the same time, some doubts arose in their minds: why were they only concerned with escaping instead of attacking it?

It's obvious that those evil cultivators pierced its scales so easily.

"Heh, they must be plotting something behind my back again. Could it be that their intention is to keep me occupied so that other evil cultivators can do bad things?"

After some thought, Qinglong concluded that, given the treacherous nature of those evil cultivators, this was highly likely the case.

"Fine, so you dare to disregard me like this? I will never let your schemes succeed!"

He became even more enraged and wanted to destroy all the "heretical practitioners".

The people inside the palace were bewildered to see that the Azure Dragon incarnation had inexplicably ignited a surge of evil fire, as if it were extremely angry, and was charging towards them at an accelerated pace.

Just as Qinglong was about to go berserk and create everyone, a strange voice suddenly came to his mind.

"Hello, can you hear me, Azure Dragon? I am Qi Yan, one of the Five Divine Beasts, Qilin." Qi Yan breathed a sigh of relief; he had finally made contact.

The connection between the five divine beasts can also be considered a kind of ability, but since his ability has not fully recovered, it is still somewhat difficult for him.

Azure Dragon paused for a moment. The five divine beasts could sense each other's presence, but rarely contacted others.

Firstly, the cultivation world is relatively peaceful. Minor matters don't require their attention, and major matters can usually be handled by them alone, sometimes without even needing their intervention.

Unless it's a situation like the great chaos ten thousand years ago, where the cultivation world is about to fall, the five divine beasts might not act collectively.

The Five Divine Beasts are the last line of defense in the cultivation world, but they generally won't make a move until the very last moment.

Of course, the chaos that occurred ten thousand years ago was resolved by the Ninghua Sect and the Taichu Sect before the five divine beasts could even make a move.

The Azure Dragon has always been in this space, completely unaware of the great chaos that occurred ten thousand years ago.

"Qiyan? What do you want with me?" Qinglong looked somewhat puzzled, but considering that he still had a group of troublesome evil cultivators to deal with, he took the initiative and became the host.

"You've come at the perfect time. Come quickly and help me fight off the evil cultivators. I've encountered a group of extremely difficult evil cultivators to deal with."
