"Don't blame me, Senior Brother."
Xiang Jianjue showed a bit of embarrassment, "I just broke through to the mastery realm today, and I haven't had time to tell my senior brother yet. My heart sword also had some enlightenment in a hurry, so I just took a gamble."
"I see."
Lin Hai suddenly realized and laughed out loud, "It seems that I am not destined to die, haha..."
He was halfway through laughing when he suddenly lowered his head and held his forehead with his hands, groaning. Xiang Jianjue immediately became nervous: "Senior Brother!"
"It's nothing, I'm just disturbed by the wandering spirit, and my memory is just recovering now."
Lin Hai put his hand down, his face no longer smiling, only solemnity remained: "Before I passed out, I saw a Di Yin demon walk out of another door, and his cultivation level was no less than the Jindan stage."
Xiang Jianjue was shocked when he heard this. "Where did the Diyin Demon come from? Its location has always been a mystery. Could it be that he came out from behind the Weird Earth Gate?"
"This place is shrouded in strange fog. Every door seems unusual and hides unknown dangers. It's possible that it connects to the underworld."
Lin Hai frowned, "But if there really is an unknown strange place that is constantly releasing demons, it should have spread freely and become known to everyone."
Unable to figure out the crux of the matter, Lin Hai simply gave up and stood up, scanning the surroundings with vigilance. "Previously, the intelligence from the five major sects warned that the demons' strength would be greatly enhanced in the strange land. The Jindan stage demons are most likely still wandering around here. I'm afraid no one in the sect can defeat them! We must reunite with the sect leader and the others and leave as soon as possible."
"But this white fog is too thick, how can we find it?"
Xiang Jianjue's face showed distress. After a moment's thought, his eyes suddenly lit up. "Brother, why don't we try to open the door and let more wandering souls in to disperse the white fog?"
“No!”
Lin Hai frowned, "If we open the door and release a more powerful demon, we will be in trouble in an instant. It's too dangerous."
Xiang Jianjue also knew that what his senior brother said made sense, so he could only let it go.
"What should I do then?"
He sighed softly, wishing that the senior master was here. She was very powerful and would definitely find a way.
Lin Hai pondered for a moment, then suddenly his gaze narrowed, "Jian Jue, didn't you say that you've already mastered the sword art?"
"Brother, do you want me to use my sword energy to disperse the white mist?"
Xiang Jianjue was so smart that he immediately understood Lin Hai's meaning. He frowned slightly and said, "But the sect's scriptures say that only sword will can eliminate illusions. I'm afraid my sword energy will be useless."
"Silly boy, how will you know if you don't try?"
Lin Hai looked at the thick white fog around him and said, "There's no better way right now. It won't hurt to try."
When Xiang Jianjue heard this, he stopped refusing. He gripped the hilt of the sword tightly and prepared for a moment before suddenly swinging the sword. However, it only caused the white mist to churn and there was no change at all.
Lin Hai's face darkened. Is it really impossible?
Seeing this, Xiang Jianjue was not disappointed. Instead, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he swung out another sword.
Swish, swish, swish!
He thrust out twelve swords in succession, each move connected to the next, his true energy flowing along with the sword moves, and finally gathered at the bottleneck that he had broken through in the morning, bringing out a trace of Xiang Sheng's remaining sword intent and merging it into the sword energy.
Chant!
The sword body hummed, and the sword wind spread out like silk. The surrounding white fog made a hissing sound wherever it touched, and the vision quickly became clear.
"It's done!"
Xiang Jianjue was overjoyed. He grabbed Lin Hai's hand and quickly rushed into the area where the white mist had faded.
Lin Hai was even more surprised than Xiang Jianjue, "Junior brother, you are truly a genius. At such a young age, you have already comprehended the legendary sword intent!"
"Brother, you misunderstood. This sword intent is not mine."
Xiang Jianjue quickly denied it, "Let's go out and explain in detail. Let's go find the Sect Leader."
Not Junior Brother’s?
Lin Hai was stunned, but after hearing the second half of Xiang Jianjue's words, he knew that the most urgent thing was to survive, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Not long after the two of them walked, the white fog began to gather again, but Xiang Jianjue eliminated it with every strike of his sword, always maintaining a field of vision five feet in front of him.
This distance is enough to see most of the situation ahead clearly.
In less than half an hour, the two encountered many mortals possessed by wandering souls. They did not get entangled with them. They used the white fog to block their vision, fought and retreated, and rescued many survivors who were hiding everywhere.
"Two Immortals!"
After rescuing another group of people, an old man with a dusty face suddenly shouted, "I've seen the clothes you're wearing. You're from the Wanjian Sect, right?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Hai immediately came to the old man's front and asked, "Old man, have you met the elders of my sect?"
"Yeah, I saw seven or eight!"
The old man nodded repeatedly, "Just an hour ago, they were chased by a big monster. I saw them all fleeing north."
"It must be that Jindan stage demon who is chasing the master."
Xiang Jianjue's face was gloomy. "But the only people who came in with me were the Sect Master and the Four Elders. How could there be seven or eight people?"
Lin Hai said solemnly, "There's the Second Elder watching outside. He's not an impulsive person, so something must have happened.
"After facing that Jindan stage demon in a near-death situation, why did Senior Brother and the others flee north?"
Xiang Jianjue's eyes flashed, and he suddenly thought of something. He looked at the old man and said, "Father, is there a temple dedicated to the goddess Sheng Ji in the north?"
The old man was stunned. "How did the little immortal know that?"
Xiang Jianjue was delighted. "There are incense offerings in the temple of Empress Shengji. As long as the Sect Leader and the others make good use of them, she must still be alive."
Hope also ignited in Lin Hai's heart, "Let's go!"
…
Just as Lin Hai and his fellow apprentice rushed to the Niangniang Temple, outside the strange land, a rainbow light came from the sky and landed in front of the white fog.
The rainbow light fell to the ground and dissipated, revealing the face of an ordinary young woman.
