The dark cave was cold and damp.
The uneven stone walls were stained with the turbid liquid left by the crawling rotten beasts.
Xuan Lin spread out his slender fingers and summoned a ball of white fluorescence to lead the way.
The two of them walked along the winding cave.
Finally, the march stopped in front of a stone wall deep in the cave.
"Master, the appearance of this stone wall is too strange. I believe there is something else behind it."
Sophie asked the question knowing the answer well, but saw Xuan Lin's eyes suddenly darken.
"This is... a demonic barrier."
He stared at the patterns carved on the stone wall and murmured aloud, a murderous aura suddenly spreading between his cold brows.
Oh, the demon barrier~
Sophie nodded and smiled, then raised her hand and slashed with the knife.
No matter whether it is a demon barrier or some other barrier.
As long as they are just barriers, wouldn’t it be over if we just break them?
Snap——
The crisp shattering sound was particularly clear in the quiet cave.
Several cracks appeared on the surface of the stone wall, and then it fell to the ground with a loud bang, shattering into slag.
"Ahem, Uncle Master, the monster must be inside. Let's go in and take a look."
Sophie brushed away the choking dust in the air nonchalantly, but saw Xuan Lin staring at her with a dim gaze.
"Uncle Master?"
Sophie was frightened by his gaze and spoke tactically.
Xuan Lin suddenly withdrew his gaze, held her hand and walked inside.
It was still dark in the narrow stone path.
The fluorescent group was jumping and leading the way ahead, but was called back by Xuan Lin at a corner.
The surroundings fell into darkness again.
Sophie was caught off guard and fell on Xuan Lin's back with her skirt stepped on.
She felt pain and stuck her head out suspiciously to check, but he covered her eyes with his hands.
Sophie: ???
Is there any scene that a top witch like me cannot watch?
Su Fei, who was born to be rebellious, immediately cast a clairvoyance spell.
In an instant, a shocking scene came into view.
On the other side of the corner, in the sunken basin, were the corpses of students from various sects.
Each of them had a withered face and hollow eyes. It was obvious that they had been drained of all their energy and died of exhaustion. Their deaths were horrific and tragic.
Among them, there are several familiar faces, and they are the students who failed in the Accord selection!
Sophie's pupils widened for a moment, and she gasped.
That huge basin-shaped hole was clearly located under the Yage.
So, what unknown secrets does this Accord hide?
And is the Pavilion Master Jimo Yan also involved?
As Sophie's thoughts turned, a man's clear and melodious voice suddenly came from the front.
"I was wondering who could have broken into my demonic barrier, but it turned out to be Venerable Xuan Lin. That's right, besides the people of my demon clan, only the immortals can open the demonic barrier I set up. Don't you agree, Venerable Xuan Lin? Oh no, perhaps I should call you - Immortal Lord Xuan Ye."
Jimo Yan walked out from the shadows with a faint smile.
He walked steadily and calmly, but his phoenix eyes were fixed on the purple dress that was exposed.
Sensing his gaze, Xuan Lin's brows suddenly turned cold.
He moved sideways to block Sophie behind him, with a cold look in his narrow eyes.
"Jimo Yan, the demon race was annihilated a hundred years ago, leaving no one to succeed them. Today, you've murdered the sect's students and absorbed their essence, simply using the demon race's name to satisfy your greed. I urge you to repent and turn back."
Xuan Lin spoke in a deep voice, and Jimo Yan laughed out loud when he heard it.
He raised his fingertips, and a rope instantly appeared.
What came into view next was the pink figure tied at the other end of the rope.
Holy crap, the heroine was actually taken hostage?
Su·The melon-eating crowd·Fei suddenly felt that the half-eaten melon was no longer fragrant.
