The three of them were extremely fast and arrived at Yunlan Territory in a short while.
The scene before them made Ruoxi and Xiaodie frown slightly.
The sky of the entire Yunlan Territory was covered with dark and gloomy clouds, as if it was about to collapse at any time.
Wisps of demonic energy continued to rise from deep underground, making people feel uneasy.
"Buzz!"
The moment he stepped into Yunlan Territory, Ye Chen sensed an aura filled with the charm of magic.
This aura is not evil, but rather carries a hint of tragedy and desolation.
"It is indeed the aura of the Black Abyss Wand."
Ye Chen's eyes narrowed slightly and he spoke in a low voice.
Ruoxi carefully sensed the demonic energy that permeated the air, and being extremely intelligent, she also noticed something was wrong.
"Brother, this demonic energy is so pure, there is no evil aura at all."
But the natural repulsion brought by the demonic energy still made her feel a little uncomfortable.
Xiaodie subconsciously leaned closer to Ye Chen, her face turning pale.
Ye Chen nodded slightly, his eyes sweeping across the area ahead where the demonic energy was even denser.
"The Black Abyss Demon Saint is a martyr of the demonic path. Naturally, he wouldn't be tainted by evil spirits or practice evil techniques."
"But demonic energy is still demonic energy, and it still poses a threat to you."
His tone turned serious.
"Follow me closely, and don't touch these evil spirits."
"Um!"
Ruoxi and Xiaodie nodded seriously and followed Ye Chen obediently.
The three of them headed towards the center of the area where the demonic energy was most turbulent. The light in the mountains and forests was dim, the demonic fog was lingering, and visibility was extremely low.
After walking for about an incense stick of time, Ye Chen suddenly stopped.
He raised his hand to signal Ruoxi and Xiaodie behind him to keep quiet.
Ruoxi and Xiaodie immediately understood, crouched down slightly, and restrained their breath.
"There's movement ahead."
Ye Chen lowered his voice, his eyes piercing through the layers of magic fog and looking forward.
"Someone got here before us."
The three of them quietly walked around to a slightly higher rock, hid their bodies, and looked forward.
In an open space not far ahead, dozens of cultivators gathered, surrounding the vortex of demonic energy with excited expressions.
The vortex is ten feet wide in diameter and bottomless. The demonic energy is surging, making it impossible to see what is going on inside.
"What an astonishing demonic energy! Is this the place where the holy weapon was born?"
An excited monk couldn't help but exclaimed, his eyes full of passion.
"That's right! It must be here!"
Another old man with a goatee said firmly, his greedy eyes fixed on the vortex of demonic energy.
"The holy artifact! The ownerless holy artifact! It must be at the bottom of this vortex!"
There was a sound of rapid breathing among the crowd.
"Fortune and honor are sought in danger! I'll go down and take a look first!"
A young cultivator, relying on his celestial cultivation, could not help but rush straight towards the vortex of demonic energy.
Want to gain the upper hand.
However, as soon as he approached the vortex, a powerful suction force sucked him in.
"ah!"
Only a shrill scream was heard, and the young monk's figure was instantly swallowed up by the violent vortex of demonic energy and disappeared without a trace.
“!!!”
"not good!"
"Back off! Back off quickly!"
Everyone's faces changed drastically, and they all retreated away from the terrifying vortex that was devouring people.
Behind Shi Yan, Ruoxi saw this scene, and a hint of nervousness flashed in her cold eyes.
"Brother, what should we do? This demonic vortex is too dangerous! We can't get close to it!"
Xiaodie was also frightened and held her hands even tighter.
Ye Chen's face was calm, and he patted Ruoxi and Xiaodie's hands soothingly.
"Wait for me here. Don't get close to the demonic energy vortex, or you'll be eroded by it."
"I'll go in and take a look."
The Heavenly Dao Pearl in Ye Chen's body has begun to slowly absorb the demonic energy, and the demonic energy here cannot corrode Ye Chen at all.
Not only would there be no danger for him to enter the demonic energy vortex, but it would also allow the Heavenly Dao Pearl to be filled with energy faster.
"But, brother..."
"Young Master..."
Ruoxi and Xiaodie became anxious when they heard this, and their beautiful eyes were filled with worry.
They didn't know about the existence of the Heavenly Dao Pearl, and they didn't know that Ye Chen was immune to the erosion of demonic energy.
He also knew that Ye Chen's cultivation had not yet recovered, and it was too risky to go there at this moment.
"Don't worry." Ye Chen said calmly.
"A mere demonic energy cannot erode me."
Before he finished speaking, his figure flashed and he disappeared into the vortex of evil energy like a ghost.
"elder brother!"
"Young Master!"
Ruoxi and Xiaodie's hearts were in their throats, their beautiful eyes fixed on the vortex of demonic energy, their expressions tense.
They knew that Ye Chen was very powerful and his methods were mysterious and unpredictable.
But the scene of the fairyland monk’s tragic death just now still made them feel heartbroken.
When the other monks saw this scene, their eyes almost popped out.
"What!"
"Who was that just now?"
A bearded man cried out in surprise, his face full of disbelief.
"He...he went in!"
"He didn't die from the corruption of the demonic energy?"
The other monk's voice trembled, it was unbelievable.
"How is this possible!"
"That demonic vortex could instantly strangle even a celestial being! How is he safe and sound?"
The discussion was like an exploding pot, instantly echoing throughout the open space.
"I see!"
In the crowd, the old man with a goatee had a gleam in his eyes and spoke in an excited tone.
"He must have a treasure on him! A top-level protective magic weapon that can resist the corrosion of demonic energy!"
"Yes! That must be it!"
