The handsome young man, carrying the little fox, arrived at a small hill in the depths of the area near the demon beasts, along with Taotie, Wuguang, and others.

The handsome young man, Taotie, and Wuguang were alright, after all, they were powerful and few people could hurt them in a group battle.

The group of demonic cultivators below looked miserable, covered in wounds, missing limbs, and many of them had their demonic shells unusable.

But since the handsome young man didn't speak, none of them dared to act on their own.

"Your Excellency, they must have all dispersed by now. Should we mobilize all our forces and launch a surprise attack on the Pill Sect?" Wu Guang, still unable to swallow the anger over Fen Ying's injury, cautiously asked for instructions.

"The Dan Sect's protective array is a genuine immortal-grade formation. Even I, who went in, wasn't confident I could come out. Do you intend to spend your life in the Dan Sect?" The handsome young man frowned slightly, glancing at Wu Guang with obvious disdain.

He paused, then slowly stroked the soft fur on the back of the little fox in his arms, and said, "Those who need to change their magic shells, go in first and change into new ones. The rest of you, stay here and rest, and wait for the other demon generals to arrive with their men. Anyone who acts on their own initiative before everyone has arrived will be killed without mercy."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The severely injured demonic cultivators breathed a sigh of relief and responded loudly.

Then, he turned and walked up the hill.

The next second.

Damn!

Where is this?

The group of wounded demonic cultivators stared blankly at the dark, deathly silent space around them.

They tried to turn around and retreat the way they came, but suddenly their feet lost their footing, and they couldn't even gather their demonic energy.

Because there is absolutely no demonic energy or spiritual power here!

"Endless void!"

One of the demonic cultivators cried out in horror, only to find that his voice could not be transmitted at all.

Because there is nothing in the endless void that can serve as a medium for transmitting sound.

There isn't even time here; it's a truly empty place.

The handsome young man, Taotie, and Wuguang waited outside for quite some time, but not a single person emerged from the hill. The three leaders were growing impatient. These little bastards, having gone without being disciplined in a long time, had become increasingly audacious, their actions being so slow and drawn-out.

"You two, go in and urge them. We're letting them go in to change their demonic shells, not to recuperate," Taotie said impatiently, pointing at two demonic cultivators.

The two demonic cultivators dared not disobey, respectfully accepted the order, and never returned.

After a short while, Taotie ushered two more people inside.

After another cup of tea, two more people were ushered inside.

One lamp after another, five or six groups of people went in just to urge others to leave, but none of them came back.

Even the most oblivious young man and Wu Guang could sense that something was amiss.

"Your Majesty, I'll go see what's going on inside," Wu Guang said obsequiously as he stood up and headed towards the small hill.

Just as he was about to step into the barrier surrounding the small hill, the handsome young man suddenly appeared behind him, grabbed him by the back of his collar, and pulled him back: "No need to go."

“Your Excellency, what’s inside…” Wu Guang turned around in confusion. He hadn’t even gone in yet and hadn’t sensed anything.

The handsome young man didn't speak, but cut off a strand of his hair and attached a wisp of his divine consciousness to it, sending it into the mountain.

That wisp of divine consciousness was like a candle flame in a storm; it went out as soon as it entered.

"I never imagined that there are beings in this world who can directly pierce through the void." The handsome young man appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was churning with turmoil. So much so that he didn't say the second half of his sentence: "It seems that those old monsters have also sensed something and have indeed come out."
