The two rested in this abandoned demon's lair for nearly two months.
During this time, Lin Xiuyuan refined all the demon skins into talismans. In order to avoid being noticed, he deliberately failed a few times, but the success rate was still there. In secret, he maintained a 100% success rate. Now, he has more than seventy top-level talismans on him again.
Lin Xiuyuan's soul has not yet recovered, so his combat power is not quite commensurate with his current Qi Refining 12th level realm. He can only rely on talismans to unleash combat power comparable to the peak of Qi Refining!
Chen Xue gradually recovered. Her injuries weren't too serious to begin with, but the forced interruption of her talisman activation caused a clash of spiritual energy, straining her meridians and even causing some meridians to break. As a result, she couldn't circulate her magic power and couldn't exert her combat strength.
After nearly two months of rest and recuperation, he has almost fully recovered.
During this period, Chen Xue communicated with the outside world through the communication jade talisman and seemed to have a general plan.
On this day, Chen Xue finished her meditation and cultivation, appearing to have fully recovered. She stepped forward, her expression slightly grave, and said:
"Fellow Daoist Lin, how is your rest? It's about time we set off to return to the surface. The situation on the surface has worsened in the past two months. Demonic cultivators are hunting everywhere, and Junior Brother Zhang and his group have faced danger several times. However, they have gathered more people during this time and have also learned some information about the demonic cultivators..."
Lin Xiuyuan slowly finished his practice, stood up and looked at Chen Xue, his expression slightly serious.
According to what he said, Chen Xue learned from that Junior Brother Zhang that the demonic cultivators were hunting down cultivators of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance and had now spread throughout the entire secret realm!
While capturing these cultivators from the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, they also seized countless opportunities from secret realms. Apart from this core region, almost the entire secret realm was conquered.
Even now, no one knows where all these demonic cultivators came from!
They captured all the cultivators of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance alive and kept escorting them to the depths of the demon's lair, with the aim of using them as a blood sacrifice to seize the demon king's remains.
Because the remains were placed within the dragon vein, their spiritual energy remained consistently vigorous, almost constantly radiating an aura containing the power of a high-level cultivator. That was the spiritual might of a Nascent Soul stage demon, something ordinary cultivators simply could not seize. Even under immense spiritual pressure, they could not get close...
The demonic cultivators then resorted to ruthless methods, intending to sacrifice blood to the great formation and forcibly seize the remains of Yaowang!
Nowadays, apart from the central area, the secret realm has almost become the domain of demonic cultivators. As time goes by and with continuous searches, they will inevitably find traces of Junior Brother Zhang and the others. At that time, there will be no room for struggle.
but……
Lin Xiuyuan frowned and asked, "Is there a better solution? In this situation, if there isn't a good way, we can only..."
Although Lin Xiuyuan didn't finish speaking, Chen Xue clearly understood the implication. Now that this secret place had almost become the domain of demonic cultivators, if they went out rashly, they would inevitably be intercepted by the demonic cultivators. It would be safer to stay here.
After all, this place is a demon's lair, and the number of demonic beasts inside is extremely large, and their quality is even higher.
Even though the number of demonic cultivators has increased considerably, it is clearly unlikely that they can conquer this demonic lair in one fell swoop.
Based on the information currently available, those demonic cultivators merely opened up a few passages in the demon lair to facilitate the escort of cultivators from the Nine Kingdoms Alliance for blood sacrifice.
So, they've been quite safe here for some time now.
Staying here might be a good idea.
Although it is full of unknowns, and they may be discovered by the demonic cultivators over time, it is more likely that they will be able to hide safely. When the demonic cultivators have finished their business, they will also be teleported out, and the barrier will naturally dissipate at that time.
Or, if this goes on for too long, it might attract the attention of the higher-ups in the Nine Nations Alliance, and perhaps then there will be a chance to escape.
However, Chen Xue was, after all, a prodigy disciple of the Golden Sea Sect of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, and a future successor of the Chen family. Naturally, she could not simply hide here and avoid the situation, and she had to spread the news as far as possible.
So Chen Xue shook her head and said, "Hiding here is not a good idea for me. If Fellow Daoist Lin does not want to take risks, you can stay here. I need to go out and meet up with them, and send as much information as possible to the sect."
Chen Xue paused, then her expression darkened, and she said:
"We've come up with a plan during this time. We've contacted a cultivator from the Water Cloud Palace who possesses Void Stones, but to be on the safe side, we're afraid we'll need three Void Stones to break through the barrier and teleport out."
"So recently, Junior Brother Zhang and the others have been constantly exploring the ground. They recently discovered that among the demonic cultivators' escort team is a Kuncang Sect prodigy who possesses a Void Stone. If we can rescue him, we can directly use the teleportation array to leave!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiuyuan frowned and said, "Is this feasible? There are so many demonic cultivators, and many of them are powerful. I'm afraid it will be difficult!"
"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. This escort team hasn't fully entered the demon's lair yet, so the chances are pretty good. During this time, Junior Brother Zhang and his group have gathered quite a few people outside. Those who have been active until now are all elite cultivators with extraordinary strength. If we launch a surprise attack using talisman treasures, we have a great chance of rescuing this person."
Chen Xue said slowly.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiuyuan pondered for a moment and immediately nodded, saying, "Alright, let's go out and fight!"
For Chen Xue, with responsibilities on her shoulders, the only option was to leave the secret place as soon as possible.
For Lin Xiuyuan, if there is any hope of making a final push, he will naturally give it his all, leave the secret place as soon as possible, and obtain a high-grade Foundation Establishment Pill to break through to the next level!
