Of course, Duan Ming was not the only one who panicked when he saw the beast pit. The hundreds of people in the stone chamber had already fallen into chaos.
Xiang Sheng took two steps back at the right time and stood in the shadows. His eyes penetrated the stone chamber and saw the two people standing behind the scenes overlooking the entire scene.
These two people, one old and one young, are dressed very differently.
The young man was wearing a golden robe and a jade pendant on his waist. He was watching the show in the stone chamber with great interest.
Behind him, the old man, judging by his attire, must be the leader of the Holy Pavilion that Duan Ming mentioned. He looked helpless and pleaded with the young man:
"Your Highness, please show some mercy. If too many people die, I will be hard-pressed to explain myself."
"rest assured."
The young man opened his folding fan with a snap and said with a smile, "I know what's going on. I'll leave you with twenty men."
The Holy Pavilion Commander immediately breathed a sigh of relief, bowed, clasped his fists, and said, "Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness. I will not disturb you any longer. I wish Your Highness a happy time."
The young man waved his hand impatiently, and the leader of the Holy Pavilion immediately retreated.
While the two were talking, the crack in the ground inside the stone chamber had expanded to 80%, leaving only a small edge on both sides that was large enough for people to stand.
This amount of space naturally cannot accommodate a hundred people.
So the people who were discussing how to cooperate just now started fighting without saying a word.
Those who did not want to join the fight flew away, or stood in the air, or grabbed the protrusions of the stone chamber and climbed on the wall.
Duan Ming felt that he was not strong enough to seize that tiny space, so he flew away early and watched the battle from the air.
When his eyes inadvertently glanced at the wall on the left, he noticed Xiang Sheng hanging on the wall not far from him. The whole person was shrouded in shadow and his face could not be seen clearly.
At this moment, he had no time to think about those little love affairs, but when he saw Xiang Sheng, he subconsciously leaned towards her.
At this moment, the young man sitting outside watching the show raised his lips slightly:
"There are too many fools, and the unlocking array is empty."
The guard beside him immediately stepped forward and pressed the core of the formation.
Buzz!
Inside the stone chamber, Duan Ming felt his whole body suddenly sink, and he fell uncontrollably.
He was horrified and grabbed at the stone wall with his hands. Fortunately, he was lucky and grabbed a bulge on the wall to stabilize his body.
The other monks hanging in the air were not so lucky.
They were extremely far away from the wall and suddenly lost the ability to stay airborne, so they could only fall into the beast pit with screams.
"Save me!"
"ah!!!"
"Let me out, I won't enter the Demon Palace anymore!"
“…”
The chaos soon subsided as the monks were eaten by the monsters.
The stone chamber fell into a dead silence, and you could hear a pin drop.
Duan Ming looked at the huge bloody pit below in a trance, with a layer of cold sweat on his forehead.
If he hadn't seen "Chen Li" just now and leaned towards the wall, would his fate be the same as these people?
His lips trembled, and he suddenly thought of something, and turned his head sharply to see Xiang Sheng.
Had she anticipated this happening? That's why she chose to hang it on the wall instead of in mid-air.
He really wanted to ask, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't dare to say a word.
At this moment, no matter how slow he was, he had already reacted.
This Shen Li was not as weak as he had imagined.
But she is a female cultivator after all. Even if she is strong, she probably won't be much stronger than him.
But in this case, how could this woman not see the embarrassing scenes he had just made?
She was probably not only seeing it, but also seeing it very clearly, but she didn't expose it and secretly laughed at him.
And his previous attentiveness was probably a joke in the eyes of this woman!
The more Duan Ming thought about it, the angrier he became. Just as he was about to question something, he suddenly felt something slippery in his hand and he could hardly hold the protruding stone.
He was startled and came back to his senses. He looked carefully and saw that the entire stone wall was covered with a thick layer of black oil.
He hurriedly mobilized his true energy and was about to use magic to remove the black oil, but he saw Xiang Sheng suddenly let go of his hand and fell straight into the beast pit.
Duan Ming's movements suddenly stopped, then he gritted his teeth, let go of his hands and jumped down.
And just as he let go of his hands and fell, a spark flew between his true essence and the black oil, and his head suddenly turned into a sea of fire!
A wave of heat hit Duan Ming's head, and the smell of burning hair filled his nose.
He looked up in horror and saw several figures reduced to ashes in the flames. The anger in his heart had long since disappeared, leaving only fear.
Soon, he no longer even felt any fear.
"roar!"
The hungry bull's eyes were red, and a cloud of white air was coming out of its nose. It charged straight ahead.
Duan Ming was so frightened that he ran away without saying a word.
In the narrow spherical pit, humans and animals were in chaos. The sounds of gnawing flesh, screams, and howling mixed together, creating a hell on earth.
Outside the stone chamber, the Holy Son clapped his hands and laughed, "Wonderful! Truly wonderful!"
Xiang Sheng looked through the stone wall and took a deep look at the Son of God. His figure was always hidden in the shadows, wandering outside the battle group.
"roar!"
A demonic wolf suddenly locked onto Xiang Sheng, howled, and opened its bloody mouth full of fangs to bite her neck.
Xiang Sheng tilted his head slightly, grabbed the wolf's sharp teeth on both sides with his bare hands, and squeezed them gently, breaking the teeth into pieces.
“Ouch!”
The demon wolf let out a cry of pain and became extremely ferocious. Just as it was about to go crazy, Xiang Sheng frowned slightly and pressed forward with an invisible force.
The demon wolf seemed to be extremely frightened, with all the hair on its body standing up. Its eyes quickly became clear, and it whimpered and ran away with its tail between its legs.
Xiang Sheng did not chase after him. He grabbed a corpse and continued to cover himself.
Suddenly, she felt something in her heart, and her eyes were as cold as lightning as she looked sideways.
Not far away, Duan Ming, who had seen the whole process, was already stunned.
This sudden glance made him shudder. When he came to his senses, his legs went weak and he fell into a pool of blood.
A monster not far away noticed the movement and immediately rushed over.
"not good!"
Duan Ming cried out inwardly, but before he could do anything to resist, the monster suddenly stopped and turned around to run away.
Duan Ming was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt a shadow cast over his head.
He subconsciously looked up and saw Xiang Sheng's indifferent profile.
His whole body froze for a moment, then he forced out a smile that was uglier than crying, "Thank...thank you so much for your help, senior."
Xiang Sheng lowered his eyes and looked at Duan Ming with a cold gaze:
"Since those few pieces of information you provided were decent, I'll spare your life. If you dare reveal even a single word of what happened today..."
Before Xiang Sheng could finish, Duan Ming knelt on the ground and answered:
"I was blind and offended you, Senior. You have forgiven me for helping me. I am deeply grateful and will keep this a secret!"
"That's better."
As soon as these four words came out, Duan Ming felt as if he had heard the sound of nature and he breathed a sigh of relief.
He was annoyed when he was laughed at before, but now... he just felt happy.
Very good!
It turned out that the senior had not taken him seriously from the beginning, and his life was finally saved.
