Since the method of connecting souls was rarely used, the disciples were naturally very curious and unwilling to leave, so they all stayed a short distance away to watch.
Whispering wouldn't affect Shen Yun's concentration.
Earth elemental energy flowed slowly along the array patterns formed by the spirit stones, gradually making the entire array shine brightly. The soul lamp was surrounded by spiritual energy, and the glass on it bloomed like flower petals.
The small cluster of soul fire, freed from its restraints, immediately burst into flames in the air. However, the leaping flames were controlled by the formation, being drawn and swaying little by little, as if someone in the void was holding a paintbrush, painting humanity from blurry to clear.
Gasps could be heard from the surrounding area.
In the blue flames, the illusory figure of Ning Weisheng slowly opened its eyes.
"Greetings, Master, and all elders." The voice came from within the formation, just as he always had in his manner of dealing with people.
Aside from its overall semi-transparent blue color, it is almost a lifelike replica.
Even disciples of immortals rarely witness such a scene.
There are people who have seen similar things, but those are remnants of souls deliberately left behind in this world by powerful beings before their ascension or fall. They are either blurry in appearance or cannot speak human language.
It's rare to find a scene like this, where it feels as if the real person is standing right in front of you.
The disciples, who had initially harbored some resentment towards Shen Yun for going into seclusion to avoid the situation, now all put aside their complaints.
His strength is undeniable. It seems that he was simply in a precarious state and unwilling to see anyone because he had lost two disciples in succession.
When you really need him, he can still be of use!
"Senior Brother Ning, I am Li Luxi." Since it was Li Luxi who suggested looking for someone, now that the person had appeared, she was naturally the first to step forward and speak up, "I hope you will forgive my rash contact."
"My elder brother and senior brother entered the Demon Realm together and lost contact with their family a few days ago. Now the Demon Realm is under full martial law, and it is impossible to find out any information from inside."
"As the younger sister, I am truly worried, which is why I have been so impolite in visiting. Please ask Elder Shen Yun to contact my senior brother for me."
After listening to her finish speaking, Ning Weisheng bowed and returned the greeting, saying, "Miss Li's concern for her brother is perfectly understandable, so there's no question of blaming her."
Li Luxi closed her eyes briefly.
They truly are master and disciple; they even say the same things she doesn't like to hear.
Without a doubt, he would address Li Jinchu as Young Master Li.
After thinking about it this way, she felt much better.
So what if he's the brilliant young master of the Li family? He still has to be reduced to the name "Li," and all his achievements are overshadowed by the powerful Li family.
No one can escape the common customs.
"Senior Brother Ning, what is the current situation in the Demon Realm?" she asked again.
"The Demon Realm is hunting down our senior brother," Ning Weisheng said.
This was like a stone thrown into a still pond, causing a huge ripple effect. Everyone present couldn't help but gasp in shock upon hearing this.
Is Ji Mo Fan wanted by the entire Demon Realm?
Did they hear that right? What earth-shattering thing has this senior brother done in the Demon Realm this time? How could he possibly throw the entire Demon Realm into such chaos because of him?
"What happened?" Shen Yun asked.
Li Luxi, who originally wanted to quickly shift the topic to Li Jinchu, had no choice but to remain silent and take a step back.
There was nothing she could do; after all, the communication array was drawn by Shen Yun, and she needed his help, so she had to step aside.
"Our eldest brother was trapped in the Demon Palace by the Demon Lord. He only managed to escape during the chaos of the coronation ceremony," Ning Weisheng said.
"Moreover, they also kidnapped the Demon Lord."
Everyone was deeply shocked this time.
What? These words can be combined?
Why does their senior brother always do such shocking things?
He became famous at the Dao Asking Conference at the age of seventeen, which is already impressive. But this time, he even managed to kidnap the Demon Lord in the Demon Realm and take him hostage.
Is he even human?
No wonder the Demon Realm is in such chaos. Everyone knows that their Demon Lord has been sitting firmly in that position for thousands of years, and now he has been kidnapped by a mere Nascent Soul cultivator.
They would go crazy too.
Unexpectedly, taking that step back led to such a shocking piece of news. Li Luxi shut her mouth and decided to listen carefully.
"Senior Brother Ning, you just mentioned... the coronation ceremony?"
Amidst the chaos caused by this absurd information, Qi Fengyu suddenly spoke up to ask a question.
"The current Demon Lord Xiao Wangyan has been on the throne for a thousand years, and I have never heard of him releasing a demon queen by his side. Why is he suddenly making such a big move now?" he asked.
"Just who is that Demon Queen?"
Within the illusory image created by the burning soul fire, Ning Weisheng's gaze shifted to Qi Fengyu.
"Young Sect Master, I think you should have some guesses by now." He uttered an even more astonishing statement as soon as he opened his mouth, "The Demon Lord's choice for the Demon Queen is our Chief, Senior Brother Ji Mo Fan."
"Smack."
Some people were so frightened that they fell down and sat on the ground, forgetting to get up for a moment.
His fellow disciples beside him stood there, mouth agape, completely oblivious to the fact that they hadn't even thought to reach out and help their companion.
This is even more unbelievable than Ji Mofan kidnapping the Demon Lord. When I heard this, my brain was thinking, "Is there something wrong with my ears?"
Ji Mo Fan, as a righteous person, how could she become the Demon Queen in the Demon Realm?
But Ning Weisheng really had no right to make up lies to deceive them. Otherwise, such a fake lie would inevitably be exposed, whether news came from the Demon Realm or when the group that went to the Demon Realm returned after completing their mission.
