131.
In the northern part of Luofu Territory, it faces the abyss of the Northern Wasteland.
Broken Abyss is located in the central part of the Northern Wilderness. It is shaped like an axe and looks like the Chinese character "一". Its depth is immeasurable. It absorbs the evil energy from the surroundings all year round and becomes increasingly darker.
Yang Zigui stood on the viewing platform of the Broken Abyss. The smell of blood hit her nose. She frowned, recalling the monster that crawled out of the abyss last night.
Five of them appeared in one night, but she checked the records of the Demon Sect and found that these monsters called "Demon Nightmares" only appeared one or two at a time. Only when a disaster tide formed would more than twenty of them appear at once.
Killing a nightmare will reward you with considerable points, which means that the player's mission is closely related to this monster.
The copy has been opened, which also indicates that the disaster of this world is imminent.
Yang Zigui stared at the abyss, fearing that countless demons were climbing up from the depths of the abyss.
What was the origin of the Broken Abyss? She searched through numerous records, but found nothing of value. It was as if someone had deliberately erased it; all records related to the Broken Abyss were fragmentary and disconnected.
I thought this was a plot-oriented copy, but I didn't expect it to be a disaster copy.
I couldn't help but think, no wonder there was a fairy-tale background. That tough and thick-skinned demon nightmare really couldn't be killed without some cultivation.
"Yang Zhangling! Your Excellency... Your Excellency..." A young disciple of the Demon Sect hurried to the viewing platform, speaking incoherently with fear.
Yang Zigui waved her hand: "Take a breath first." She was really afraid that he would pass out in a breath.
The young disciple of the Demon Sect paused for a moment and said, "Yang Zhangling, the Venerable has run away from home!"
Yang Zigui: “???”
As the young disciple returned to the main hall of Luofu Realm, he found it in chaos. Yang Zigui asked someone and found out that it was Venerable Nanlu who had fought his way out despite any obstruction.
"The Venerable didn't leave any words. Now Luofu Territory is leaderless, with the Western Murderers and the Northern Murderers waiting in the wings. How can we resist them with our cultivation?"
Ever since Dong Tu was deposed, everyone in Luofu Territory had been feeling proud and in the spotlight for a while. Who could have imagined that the situation was so favorable that Venerable Nan Lu would leave without a trace of regret?
Yang Zigui's thoughts turned. She was planning to find time to visit the Immortal Gate and investigate for any information about the Broken Abyss. Before the disaster began, it was the best time to gather information.
It would be even better if they could meet other players by chance, so they could try to cooperate and win together. She originally thought Nan Lu was a player because his words and actions were really not consistent with an NPC, but he didn't have the mark of a player.
Yang Zigui guessed that he was an NPC with disordered data, so his words and actions were so strange.
Leaving this strange boss aside for now, she began to prepare to leave the Demon Sect to look for information.
——
The original plan to go to the Northern Wilderness was naturally shelved. The nightmare in the Demon Sect's territory was extraordinary and was definitely not something that a fledgling disciple like them could handle.
Chang Sun Jing sent the news brought back by Wen An back to Zhengqing Sect, intending to wait for the arrangements of the elders in the sect.
"Aren't you going to report the news back?" Lu Cai was curious about how Wen An could be so calm and indifferent throughout the whole process, not caring about the progress at all.
"After finding the Demon Nightmare, I reported the matter to Chanyin Temple." Wen An followed Lu Cai to sit by the window of the inn, looking at the bustling street outside.
After all, the demonic nightmare has become a disaster, and it still requires the joint efforts of all the immortals to resist it.
Lu Cai was thinking about the popular knowledge about demonic nightmares: "Are demonic nightmares monsters created by demonic cultivators during their training?"
"That's what the immortals say, but there's not enough evidence to prove it." Wen An sneered, "I saw them crawling out of an abyss in the Northern Wilderness."
Lu Cai seemed to be lost in thought. "The Northern Wilds are short of spiritual energy, and with countless demonic cultivators cultivating, it's no surprise that a monster like this could emerge. However, if this monster becomes a disaster, it will be difficult to deal with."
This makes me feel sad, and it is also because I have been cheated by dungeons many times, so I have some concerns in my mind.
She looked up at Wen An and could tell from the monk's eyes that he had the same idea.
"I'm afraid that before long, the nightmare disaster will turn this world into purgatory." He said, looking out the window.
The sun was shining brightly outside, enveloping the houses and people in a warm atmosphere.
Today, this prosperous place is like a precarious mirage, which may disappear at any time and anywhere.
Hoping that the Immortal Sect really had a solution, Lu Cai remained silent.
A figure quickly ran down the stairs. Lu Cai glanced over and saw Qiu Yiyi, who was gesturing with a compass. Meeting her gaze, Lu Cai saw the surprise in Qiu Yiyi's eyes. She glanced at Wen An, then quickly looked away.
"The woods outside the city are filled with demonic energy. They must be the demon cultivators from the Demon Sect!" Qiu Yiyi said hurriedly, then ran out with a sword in hand.
Immediately afterwards, Su Ye and Chang Sun Jing also rushed down quickly.
"Where is Junior Sister Qiu?" Chang Sun Jing frowned and asked Lu Cai.
Lu Cai pointed outside the door: "She said there were demon cultivators in the woods outside the city, so she rushed out—"
"That's just nonsense!" Chang Sun Jing muttered to himself, and then said to Su Ye, "Junior Sister Su, stay and take care of Junior Sister Lu. I'll go find Junior Sister Qiu."
After saying that, he also rushed out of the inn.
"What's wrong?" Lu Cai was puzzled. He stood up and walked to Su Ye's side and asked.
Su Ye sighed, "Junior Sister Qiu was angry about the Demon Nightmare incident, and she happened to detect a demon cultivator nearby, so she was anxious to chase him out. But Senior Brother Changsun felt that the immortal sect and the demon sect had not offended each other in recent years. If Junior Sister Qiu provoked trouble, it would be detrimental to the reputation of the Zhengqing Sect."
A cold sneer rang in his ears, and Guan Chengyu also came down from upstairs. He glanced at the two of them, and his gaze paused on Lu Cai. He tried his best to endure it and forced himself to look away.
"You rushed out so nervously, but you were actually just worried about the reputation of your master? The disciples of Zhengqing Sect are indeed loyal and upright." The young man sat down in front of Wen An's desk.
Lu Cai has no feelings for this "master", but he is worried about Qiu Yiyi's safety. She sees Su Ye also wants to chase after him, but she wants to stay and protect this "useless" person.
"If Senior Sister Su is worried, why not go with me? Master Wen An and Junior Brother Du are here. I'll be fine."
Su Ye looked at Wen An on the side and nodded: "Be careful." Then he ran out of the inn.
Seeing these NPCs worried about Lu Cai, Guan Chengyu felt a little sarcastic. This Lu Cai was really good at acting. In the Animal Farm dungeon, even though her superpowers were suppressed, she was able to limit explosions and control other players.
Now that all the restrictions have been removed, crushing these disciples will definitely be a piece of cake.
They were actually worried that something might happen to her.
Sad, being taken advantage of and still having to foolishly help others count money...
Lu Cai walked back to his seat and asked, "What exactly is this demon cultivator? If the demon nightmare is related to them, then the demon cultivator is the boss?"
"Demon cultivators are also a type of cultivator. They just don't rely on spiritual energy." Wen An said calmly, "Demon cultivators do evil, and immortal cultivators will also do evil. Ultimately, it's the people who are evil, not the methods of cultivation."
Lu Cai held up his teacup. It made sense that Wen An would become a Buddhist practitioner. He could even gain insights at any time and teach ordinary people...
Perhaps this "Buddhist cultivation" ability is not only about external output, but also includes inner enlightenment.
She thought about it and was about to take a sip of tea. Just as her lips touched the rim of the cup, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen and ribs. Her hand trembled in pain, and the tea spilled out. A flash of red flashed through her mind.
"What are you doing?" Guan Chengyu was a little angry because of the tea. He glared at her and found that she was frowning and her face looked not very good.
Wen An set his eyes on her.
"No...it's okay." Cai Lu was stunned.
She saw a figure from behind, wearing a red robe and with waist-length hair. It was 666.
666 is nearby!
But looking at his attire, he doesn't look like a proper cultivator... he looks like a demon cultivator!
The woods outside the city!
Lu Cai was suddenly startled, quickly stood up, and said hurriedly: "I forgot to tell them something, I'll go chase them!"
After saying that, he ran out in a hurry.
Looking at her back, Guan Chengyu sneered: "She really cares about the lives of those people... They are just a few NPCs..." Then he thought of something, "What do you say she is? She can't even sense the player mark."
Wen An looked out the window and ignored him.
......
Lu Cai used his special powers to track the traces left by the three people and headed out of the city.
She did not catch up with the people directly, but covered her tracks and moved on the tree branches, trying to find 666 before them.
On the way, Lu Cai felt the red rope. If 666 was indeed the demon cultivator discovered by Qiu Yiyi, he had previously been in the Northern Wasteland, too far away from the Zhengqing Sect. So, was this red rope sensation really related to distance?
No matter how hard she tried, when she finally arrived, Qiu Yiyi still got there first.
Lu Cai landed on a branch not far away, looking at the two people facing each other in the woods. His eyes fell on the man in red, and he couldn't help but hold his breath.
666 has a tall figure and was originally wearing a gray cloth Tang suit. He has a restrained temperament and even the aggressiveness of his face is hidden.
But at this moment, he was dressed in an exquisite and gorgeous robe, his long black hair casually tied up with a dark brown wooden hairpin. When his eyes moved to his face, what caught his eye was a pure black metal mask.
Even though he didn't show his face, he exuded the aura of a noble young man. It just so happened that he had a cold personality, which made him look dull to Lu Cai, but in the eyes of others, he looked unattainable and indifferent.
Just like a king, he can control the life and death of others.
Lu Cai knew that his worries were in vain, as 666 was obviously doing better than him.
Qiu Yiyi on the other side had not expected to take a photo of such a demon cultivator. He did not have any violent or vicious temperament. Rather than a demon, it would be better to say that he was an ascended immortal.
"You...you are a demon cultivator. Why do you come to my Southern Region instead of staying in the Northern Wilderness?" Qiu Yiyi finally regained her thoughts and shouted in a stern voice.
Lu Cai shook his head. 666 was mute and couldn't have a proper conversation, so a fight was inevitable between them. After a moment's hesitation, she decided to reveal herself. She didn't have to hide her abilities.
Before anyone could move, many dark shadows appeared. Even a useless person like Lu Cai, who had a "low level of cultivation", could feel the overwhelming demonic energy.
Qiu Yiyi suddenly became wary, even a little angry. "The Demon Sect is truly cunning!" Her senior brother had even said that the peace between the Immortal Sect and the Demon Sect was hard-won, and urged her not to act rashly. Judging from the situation, the Demon Sect had ulterior motives and was probably looking for a reason to stir up trouble...
Before she could calm down, Qiu Yiyi saw a flash of a knife, and the disciple of the Demon Sect on the side wailed and then fell to the ground.
"Huh?" Qiu Yiyi stared in astonishment. Why... why is this Demon Sect still strife-ridden?
