Xiang Sheng didn't get a direct answer, but just by looking at the reaction of the Great Elder, he already understood.
She guessed right.
The black energy in Luo Qingyun's body was running wild, and it was affected by the strange place nearby.
The Great Elder had no idea that Xiang Sheng had seen through him. He was struggling with how to respond when he suddenly saw a disciple running towards him in a panic, "Great Elder, something terrible has happened!"
The Great Elder recognized that the person was the disciple who was responsible for delivering the news about the mysterious land. His face immediately changed, and he left Xiang Sheng without saying a word.
Xiang Sheng looked at the two people's backs as they left, then stood up and went back to the bed in the room.
She examined Luo Qingyun's body and confirmed that the seal would not have any problems in the short term. A cold light suddenly flashed in her eyes.
"No one can take your life away."
At the same time, a small town with only a few hundred households a hundred miles outside Wanjianmen Mountain was now covered by thick white fog, and the fog was less than a foot wide.
Outside the range of the white fog, a group of disciples from the Wanjian Sect were looking at the direction of the small town in fear and trepidation, and no one dared to speak.
At this moment, a shout came from behind.
"The Great Elder is here!"
The people from Wanjianmen immediately seemed to have found their backbone and swarmed back.
The elder's wrinkled face no longer had the kindness he had shown to Xiang Sheng. He swept his old eyes over the disciples present, his eyes filled with solemnity and seriousness. "What's going on? Yu Zhe, tell me."
Yu Zhe forced himself to remain calm and quickly said, "Great Elder, half a day ago, Junior Brother Qingsen brought Junior Brother Jianjue in to look for Senior Brother. Everything was fine, but just a quarter of an hour ago, the white fog suddenly expanded!
The sect leader and the elders were too close to avoid it, and were suddenly all swept up in the white mist!"
The Great Elder's face darkened slightly. He stretched out his hand and grabbed a rabbit from the forest, sucking it into his hand and throwing it into the boundary between the white fog and the outside world.
Everyone immediately looked over.
The rabbit appeared and disappeared, then jumped normally for a moment, and then suddenly let out a shrill cry and exploded into a bloody mist.
Everyone was shocked and confused, except the Great Elder, who looked slightly relieved and said, "It's okay, this strange place is still in its initial expansion stage."
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the disciples immediately became much better.
Seeing this, the Great Elder said in a deep voice, "But we can't be careless. We need to stay a little further away. Also, is there any news from the Incense Hall?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone gnashed their teeth.
"The Incense Hall is playing with fire!"
Yu Zhe's face was filled with indignation. "Great Elder, if the Incense Hall deliberately refuses to come and allows this evil to continue to develop, our Wanjian Sect will inevitably be swallowed up by it. Even if the Thousand Star Hall holds us accountable afterwards, it will be too late!"
"Besides, will the Thousand Star Hall really punish the Incense Hall?"
One person said with hatred: "At most, it's just a show. Those bastards don't take people like us seriously, let alone care about the lives of mortals in the secular world!"
“That’s enough!”
The Great Elder's face was filled with rage as he shouted, "If the Incense Hall doesn't come, will the people of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect just sit there and wait for death? Do you think you can rescue your Senior Brother and Master just by complaining here?!"
Everyone suddenly woke up as if from a dream and calmed down.
"Great Elder, what should we do now?"
"Distant water cannot quench a nearby fire."
The Great Elder's expression was stern. "Yu Zhe, you must immediately rush to the nearest Shuiling City and spread the news of this mysterious place throughout Dongzhou through Qianxing Pavilion, Tianyanji, and Tianqing Pavilion! Once the five major sects learn of this, they will definitely not let it go.
Qinggan, go to the nearby Niangniang Temple to collect incense ashes. If you can find a free cultivator along the way, that would be even better. Try to curb the development of the strange land before the five major sects come to your aid."
Upon hearing this, Yu Zhe and Qing Gan immediately responded in unison and turned away without saying a word.
"The rest of you, disperse in all directions and observe the strange place. Report anything unusual you find!"
The Great Elder spoke in a firm and resounding voice, "Jian Jue is a sword cultivator. They are not completely defenseless in this strange land. Those of you outside must stay alert and don't give up any hope."
"Yes."
Everyone in the Wanjian Sect was cheered up and immediately dispersed, but the Great Elder, who spoke with the most resolute tone, was not seen. His hands hidden in his sleeves were trembling slightly.
"Changfeng, Xiaohai...you must come back alive!"
…
"Big Brother, wake up."
Lin Hai opened his eyes in a daze and saw a pair of hands waving in front of him. He subconsciously reached out to grab the sword, but missed.
"I am Jian Jue."
Xiang Jianjue held the sword and looked at him with concern, "Big Brother, don't you recognize me?"
Lin Hai looked at his junior brother's face close to him, but his expression did not relax at all, and he did not respond.
My junior brother is in the sect, how could he appear here? It must be an illusion.
Where is this place?
He looked up and looked around, only to see thick white fog, and his face suddenly changed slightly.
Strange place.
He fell into a strange place? When did it happen?
How did he fall into a coma?
He frowned and tried to recall, but found that his memory was blank.
Xiang Jianjue saw Lin Hai's reaction and immediately realized something. He reached out and pulled out a strand of his hair, spreading it in front of Lin Hai, and said quickly, "Brother, you have been trapped here for two days. I rushed here as soon as I received the news.
Although the wandering souls in the strange land can transform into the appearance of close people, they are an indivisible whole and cannot be pulled apart by a single hair.
Lin Hai saw the hair in Xiang Jianjue's palm, and his expression changed. "This place is dangerous. How could you come in alone?"
"I didn't come in alone."
Xiang Jianjue shook his head solemnly, "The Second and Fourth Elders escorted me all the way here to find you, but unexpectedly the fog thickened halfway, and many panicked mortals poured out of the city, and we got separated."
