"puff!"
As the small world slipped out of control, the cultivator who was originally in charge of controlling it was instantly struck back, coughing up a mouthful of blood, and his spiritual energy began to surge.
Upon seeing this, Dean Rao, the two vice deans, and several other directors exchanged glances and immediately divided their tasks: to contact the small world and rescue people.
Even though they were extremely anxious, they carried out their tasks in an orderly manner.
At the same time, earth-shattering changes also occurred in the small world. First, the space inexplicably became pressured, and the spiritual energy suddenly decreased drastically.
Immediately afterwards, wisps of red mist, seemingly appearing out of nowhere, began to spread slowly, growing larger and larger, threatening to engulf the entire small world.
At first, everyone thought this was a new tactic used in the academy's assessment, and although they were wary, they didn't take it too seriously.
However, after someone was enveloped in the red mist, they became like a demon, their eyes turning red and they even involuntarily attacking those around them, completely losing their reason.
Those cultivators who had previously attacked so fiercely were now enraged upon seeing the red mist spreading out. They went berserk, their faces filled with joy, and charged at the nearest person with their swords.
He kept muttering to himself, "The Blood Lord has descended to earth, you will all die, you will all die."
His frenzied appearance horrified those around him, who realized something was wrong.
Some timid and cowardly individuals immediately wanted to withdraw from the competition and leave the small world.
No matter how they shouted or crushed the jade tablet in their hands, they were still undone.
The inability to contact the outside world remained unchanged, and the inability to leave remained unchanged. The array patterns flickered continuously, yet the people seemed to be frozen in place.
This situation completely panicked these people, leaving them feeling utterly disoriented and like ants on a hot plate.
In the end, it was only when some relatively calm people stepped forward and took charge that the situation was finally stabilized.
They all reacted in different directions, either by condensing spiritual energy shields, throwing out array plates, or taking out spiritual weapons, which temporarily isolated them from the erosion of the red mist and the already frenzied cultivators.
However, this is not a long-term solution, because both the red mist and the cultivators who have completely lost control are trying to destroy everyone's protective barrier and attempt to devour everyone.
Meanwhile, Lu Lishu and Jin Yunjifengdiao also sensed something was wrong the moment the small world changed.
Furthermore, the Gale Eagle's nest was located at the highest point, giving it a clear view of everything happening below.
Watching the red mist grow stronger by absorbing the spiritual energy of the small world, the big creatures in the tree hollow frowned.
After only a few glances, the Gale Eagle picked up the communication jade tokens of the people in charge of the Spirit Heart Academy without hesitation, wanting to ask what was going on.
As expected, they couldn't get in touch, and Gale Eagle was now certain it was bad news.
After quickly instructing Jin Yun to hide in the tree hollow with Lu Lishu and help look after its cubs, the two adult Gale Eagles prepared to rush down to rescue the people.
Unexpectedly, Lu Li stopped them at the exit.
It wasn't that Lu Li wouldn't let them go to rescue people, but rather that in this short period of time, Lu Li had already found the source of the spreading red mist and roughly guessed the cause of all this.
If I'm not mistaken, there must be evil cultivators mixed in with this small world, and they are evil cultivators with bloodlust.
It's unclear whether these evil cultivators brought in the true form of Blood Fiend or his clone. If it's a clone, that's fine, but if it's the true form, he might be in serious trouble.
And most importantly, the more fresh blood and spiritual energy the Blood Fiend absorbs, the stronger it becomes, and the more difficult it is to deal with.
In order to ensure that he could eventually survive until the rescue arrived, he could not allow the other side to recklessly devour the lives in the small world.
Thinking of this, Lu Li looked at the yam and wondered if he should put the yam into his space first.
However, after meeting Shushu's bright and determined eyes, Lu Li suddenly gave up on the idea and instead decided to let Shushu try it out first.
If it really is the true form of the Blood Fiend, he will simply take her back into his spatial dimension at the last moment. In short, with him around, he will definitely protect Shushu.
Shushu had no idea what Lu Li was thinking, but she instinctively stepped forward and took his hand, everything understood without a word.
In contrast, the Gale Eagle and Jin Yun were not so relaxed. The moment they heard that it was Blood Fiend, the two eagles and the vulture all looked rather bad.
The two Gale Eagles, in particular, immediately pulled the three cubs under their wings, as if that would protect them.
After a long silence, the Gale Eagle finally made up its mind and used its beak to groom the cubs' fur.
He resolutely pushed them towards the millet and potatoes, while preparing to block the blood demon himself, hoping to hold it off for as long as possible and save as many lives as he could.
After all, the Spirit Heart Academy has provided them with a safe home over the years, and they are not ungrateful eagles.
Unexpectedly, Lu Li stopped them again. After obtaining their consent and ensuring that he would not reveal anything, Lu Li put the three Gale Eagle cubs into his space.
Then, Lu Li, Shushu, and Jin Yun, along with the two Gale Eagles, a group of two people, two eagles, and one vulture, flew swiftly towards the area where the red mist first spread and was now the most intense.
The tree nest wasn't actually that far from the place, but along the way, they rescued people, throwing those who were separated into the crowd and reinforcing the crumbling protective barrier.
What should have been a half-hour journey took them almost an hour.
During this period, many people also joined the team voluntarily after learning the news.
Therefore, by the time they arrived near the origin of the red fog, a large number of people had already gathered there.
The evil cultivator and the Blood Fiend had already noticed this. While withdrawing most of the red mist, they also brought back most of the cultivators they had controlled, and they stood guard at the front.
When Lu Li and his group arrived, they saw rows of men standing guard, like zombies.
Meanwhile, those evil cultivators cowered behind layers of queues, hidden in the red mist, whether out of fear of revealing their identities or because they had some other schemes or tricks up their sleeves.
But Lu Li didn't care about any of that. After arriving here, he didn't hesitate for long. He exchanged a glance with the sword cultivator Dong Hongyuan and then took the lead in launching an attack.
