Chapter 266
Gu Shihan took a step forward, clasped his fists and saluted to Venerable Lingxu, and said loudly: "Venerable, please give me a little time. Let me wait for half a quarter of an hour. I will set off immediately after I have arranged everything here."
After saying this, she bowed again, then turned around and walked back to the crowd.
Gu Shihan quickly summoned all relevant personnel, including more than a dozen other cultivators who had ascended to the spiritual world.
Gu Shihan took a deep breath and said with a serious face: "Everyone, my senior brother, my eldest brother and I, a total of nine people, will soon leave the First Heaven and go to the Second Heaven to support the battle. The future is uncertain, but as a cultivator, we should put the lives of the people of the world first and we cannot refuse. I hope everyone will take care of their own health during this period, and we can drink and chat happily when we gather in the Second Heaven one day!"
Gu Shihan looked around, seeing the familiar faces, feeling a mixture of emotions in his heart.
"Go! Go! We will all come up to reunite with you as soon as possible!" said Venerable Danhua with a smile.
"Yes! You are all my good children from the spiritual world, thank you! Siqi, you must take care of yourself and wait for the ancestor to come up and reunite with you!" Old Duan also said with a smile.
Gu Shihan and nine others packed their bags and equipment in an orderly manner. They checked each other's conditions to make sure everything was safe.
After completing all the preparations, they turned to face Venerable Danhua and others, bowed deeply, and never looked back!
He resolutely followed Ling Xu, the messenger from the upper realm, towards the portal.
As they approached the portal, they could feel a powerful wave of energy emanating from it.
Accompanied by a sudden flash of dazzling light, the figures of Gu Shihan and others instantly disappeared in the courtyard.
They were teleported to a completely unfamiliar place - the Second Heaven Battlefield.
The place was filled with a strong and pungent smell of blood and a creepy demonic aura, as if the whole world was shrouded in darkness.
As soon as I set foot on this land, before I had time to adapt to the surrounding environment, a group of demonized birds with hideous faces and exuding evil aura swooped down like a black whirlwind.
These demonized birds bared their fangs and claws, their sharp claws flashed with cold light, and black flames spewed out of their mouths.
Faced with such a sudden attack, everyone was not afraid. They drew their swords and faced the aggressive enemies.
All I saw was the flashing of sword light and the crisscrossing of sword energy. For a moment, a fierce battle broke out with the demonized bird.
Gu Shihan flashed and leaped into the air. He held a long sword in his hand, pointed it at the vast sky, and muttered something.
In an instant, a dazzling spiritual barrier quickly unfolded with him as the center, protecting everyone inside.
At this time, Ling Xu was struggling to resist the attack of the demonized bird while shouting, "This place is extremely dangerous, we should not stay here for long! Everyone, quickly find the source of the monsters and destroy them in one fell swoop!"
Hearing Ling Xu's shout, Gu Shihan frowned slightly, his heart full of doubts. He asked: "Senior, has the Second Heaven become so chaotic? Why did we encounter attacks from demon cultivators and demon birds in the First Heaven? Could it be that these demons all escaped from the Second Heaven?"
Hearing this, Ling Xu couldn't help but sighed and said in a heavy tone: "Alas! Nowadays, all realms are in the midst of war and life and death struggles. The fairy world is also in constant turmoil, one wave after another! I really don't know when we can restore the peace and tranquility of the past..."
The crowd quickened their pace and went deeper into the Second Heaven battlefield. Along the way, they saw many demonized creatures fighting each other, and the scene was horrible.
When they reached a valley, the demonic energy in the valley was soaring. Gu Shihan had a hunch that there must be a key clue here, and was about to go in to investigate, but was blocked by a mysterious force.
Gu Shihan tried to use his spiritual power to impact this mysterious force, but it was of no use.
At this time, Venerable Lingxu stepped forward, formed seals with his hands, and a ray of holy light shot towards the mysterious power, causing the power to loosen briefly.
"Hurry up!" Venerable Lingxu shouted, and everyone rushed into the valley. In the valley, a huge magic crystal stood in the center, and countless demonic energy was pouring out of the magic crystal.
"So that's how it is. Destroying this magic crystal can stop the spread of evil energy." Mo Yu shouted.
Everyone worked together to cast their strongest spells to attack the magic crystal, but a layer of shield rose up around the magic crystal.
Seeing this, everyone was not discouraged. Gu Shihan carefully observed the shield around the magic crystal and found that the frequency of the runes flashing on the shield was low.
"Everyone, pay attention and concentrate on attacking those places where the runes are weak!" Gu Shihan shouted.
Everyone followed the order, adjusted the direction of their spiritual power, and attacked the designated location. The magic crystal shield began to shake violently and cracks appeared.
At this moment, the magic crystal suddenly released a powerful suction force, trying to suck everyone in.
Mo Yu quickly threw out a few defensive talismans to temporarily block the suction.
Shi Qinghan gritted his teeth and took out a secret treasure that he had accidentally found in the spirit world and had never used. "Let's fight!"
He shouted loudly, activated the secret treasure and rushed towards the magic crystal. The secret treasure emitted a strong light, which merged with the spiritual power of everyone and finally broke the shield of the magic crystal.
Then, everyone worked together to completely shatter the magic crystal, and the group came to the southwest of the human-demon battlefield.
Ling Xu looked at Gu Shihan and the others and said, "My dear friends, there are 100,000 troops stationed here, but I don't want you to join them. Instead, I hope you can act secretly, go around the rear of the demons, and find out why the demons started the war. But if you do this, you will not be able to help enough and will be in great danger. I wonder if you are willing?"
Shi Qinghan frowned and asked, "Senior, there are many people with higher cultivation than us in the Second Heaven, why us?"
Venerable Lingxu said with appreciation: "Good question! Going deep into the rear of the demon clan and fighting alone is definitely not possible, but if we form a team, we need everyone to work together. If we make a mistake, we will be exposed, or even wiped out.
I have discussed with other immortals for a long time, but we have not found a suitable team. Then you caught our eye because of the high level of mutual trust, tacit understanding and cooperation among you.
Another point is that you have enough people, not too many and not too few, and you are definitely the most reliable team. You can exert your maximum energy whether you are separated or combined."
Gu Shihan hesitated for a moment, then said firmly: "Senior, in this case, we are willing to give it a try." Although the others looked worried, they also nodded.
Venerable Lingxu smiled with satisfaction, raised his hand and waved it, casting a magical spell to conceal their aura on each of them. "Be careful on this trip, if you are in a desperate situation, you can crush this jade talisman to ask for help." After saying that, he handed a jade talisman to each of Gu Shihan and the others.
