The world was spinning for a while, and when Zhou Qiong opened his eyes again, he found that he was the only one around. He guessed that the vortex channel was teleporting randomly, and everyone was teleported to a different location.
Zhou Qiong looked around and found himself in an underground palace. There were densely packed passages all around him. He frowned secretly and walked into one of the passages.
The secret realm of the Semi-Saint, to put it simply, is the sleeping palace and place of inheritance of the Semi-Saint after his death. It usually contains some secret treasures and skills used by the Semi-Saint during his lifetime, and even the inheritance of the Semi-Saint.
On the other side, just as the Li siblings and A Da and a few others entered the passage, a jade pendant in the elder sister's hand began to emit light, forming a protective film that wrapped around the few people. The light only slowly disappeared after they completely stepped into the secret realm.
Li Ge looked at the entrance of the passage and said disdainfully, "A mere passage made by a half-saint wants to separate us. What wishful thinking!"
After saying that, he turned to Li's elder sister and said, "Sister Wan'er, why did we enter this broken secret realm? As soon as I entered, I felt uncomfortable all over!"
Li's elder sister, Li Wan'er, did not answer, but explored the surroundings.
At this time, countless creatures have entered the secret realm. The spiritual energy inside the secret realm is several times that of the outside. In addition, no one has mined or destroyed it for countless years, so the spiritual medicines and herbs inside are everywhere.
In the secret realm, an old man was exploring with two young disciples, picking a bunch of spiritual herbs from time to time, all with a look of joy on their faces. One of the disciples looked at the old man and said;
"Master, this Semi-Saint Secret Realm is indeed filled with treasures. After we get out, we will use these spiritual medicines to exchange for resources. By then, Master, I estimate that you will be able to enter the Eternal Realm. By then, our Tianjian Sect will be considered the number one force."
"Yes, but we can only pick some spiritual herbs here. We won't have the chance to get the real good stuff." Another disciple said depressedly.
The old man looked at the two disciples and smiled softly, "You should know how to be content. I am very satisfied to have these spiritual medicines as my teacher!"
After talking, the few of them went on to pick elixirs. In a place where no one could see, a black shadow slowly emerged and went straight into the body of the disciple who had just spoken.
Countless black shadows suddenly appeared in the entire secret realm. The black shadows seemed to have intelligence and possessed some creatures with low cultivation bases. However, they were extremely secretive and no one had discovered them.
Everyone is still exploring the secret realm and the harvest is very good. After all, there are indeed many treasures in the secret realm.
A faint light suddenly emanated from one direction of the secret realm.
All the forces that saw the light stopped exploring and flew towards the light. Even a fool could guess that this was the inheritance of the Semi-Saint appearing.
There was a huge open space where the light was emitted. At this time, hundreds of thousands of creatures had gathered in the open space, but the glowing place was guarded by several of the most powerful forces, and others could not get close.
The center of the light was occupied by four forces, namely the Yang family of Yangcheng, the Tengshe clan of Fengcheng, the Li siblings, and the Demon Cult.
At this time, only the Demon Sect is the weakest, because the leader Zhou Qiong is not here now, and the only one in charge is Lian Sheng, who is in the Eternal Realm.
However, because everyone was afraid of Zhou Qiong's strength, the other three major forces also tacitly allowed the Demon Cult to enter this core circle.
But if the inheritance really appears in a while, there will be nothing to worry about. Even if Zhou Qiong really appears, no one will give him face.
All the members of the Demon Cult gathered together and talked about their gains. Only the Demon Bull King simply said a few words, and his tone was a little stiff. The others didn't notice anything, after all, the Demon Bull King was not a talkative person usually.
Only Liansheng felt something was amiss, but he didn't find anything.
At this time, Zhou Qiong had just come out of the underground palace, with a gloomy face. He had been trapped in the underground palace for three whole days, wandering around inside.
Moreover, there was nothing in the underground palace except some portraits. It could be said that Zhou Qiong gained nothing after arriving in the secret realm.
After Zhou Qiong came out of the underground palace, he looked in the direction where the white light came from and flew over.
Just when the members of the Demon Cult felt the pressure increasing, a dark shadow appeared next to the white light, and everyone looked and saw that it was the Demon Cult's leader Zhou Qiong.
All the members of the Demon Cult immediately bowed and called out "Cult Leader".
Li Ge looked at Zhou Qiong who suddenly appeared, and asked curiously, "Master Zhou, why did you come just now? The Half-Saint inheritance is about to be opened. If you don't come soon, it will probably be snatched away by others!"
Zhou Qiong did not respond. This time he really did not know how to answer. Could it be that he was trapped in an underground palace as soon as he entered the secret realm, and it took him three whole days to get out? Would he still be able to save the face of his cult leader if he told him?
Suddenly Zhou Qiong frowned and looked at the Demon Bull King. Silver-black lightning flashed from between his eyebrows and he directly struck him with a palm.
The people around were suddenly shocked. Was the leader of the Demon Cult crazy? Why did he suddenly start attacking his own men? Even the members of the Demon Cult looked at Zhou Qiong in confusion. Only Liansheng seemed to have discovered something.
The giant palm directly slapped the body of the Demon Bull King, but the Demon Bull King was not knocked away or killed as everyone expected. Instead, he did not move, but a black shadow was knocked out from inside his body.
The black shadow looked at Zhou Qiong and laughed a few times, then instantly rushed towards a minotaur next to him. After being possessed by the black shadow, the minotaur picked up the axe behind him and chopped directly at his companion, who lost his life with an expression of disbelief on his face.
Suddenly, countless screams rang out across the open space. Countless creatures seemed to be controlled by something and began to attack their companions around them. For a moment, the open space was in chaos, with shouts of killing rising one after another.
Although it seemed like a long time, in fact, it was only a moment from the time Zhou Qiong made his move to the chaos at the scene. By the time everyone reacted, more than one third of the creatures had died. No one could believe that a companion who they had been with day and night would suddenly kill them.
By the time everyone realized that the other party was possessed by something, they began to fight back, but what made them despair was
Even if they kill each other, the black shadow will not disappear, but will drill into another person's body and continue to attack others.
Fortunately, the black shadow seems to have limited control ability, and no warrior in the Eternal Realm has been possessed by it so far.
However, as time went on, the black shadow seemed to grow stronger, and masters of the Eternal Realm also began to be possessed.
Many major forces began to get restless. At first, there was no threat to them and they thought it was just some evil creatures. Now it seems that if the situation continues like this, the black shadow may be able to possess the Zhenwu realm, and then it will be a big trouble.
