Fighting here is extremely disadvantageous for cultivators like them, because this place is full of demonic energy, which is precisely the source of nourishment for demonic cultivators.
If they don't damage the environment here, they'll probably have a very difficult time.
With time running out, Shi Xuan used all his strength to absorb the demonic energy here. In the end, the barrier shattered and vanished into thin air.
From then on, the long-hidden Demon Abyss was no longer concealed and was exposed to everyone's view.
The two cultivators who were still guarding the shore felt the black mist in the crevice suddenly dissipate, revealing the scenery inside.
Those bare stones and those scattered, simple dwellings can all be seen at the top of the crack.
After the barrier was broken, the demonic root also severed its connection with the barrier, and Shi Xuan could no longer continue to absorb demonic energy through this channel.
Now that her master and the others had entered the Demon Abyss, she was no longer afraid of making a commotion and being discovered.
So Shi Xuan took off on his sword, and as he flew into the air, he threw five Exploding Pills at the area where she was!
A tremendous explosion resounded throughout the entire Demon Abyss. In an instant, the entire valley floor shook violently, and even the cliff walls on the edge of the valley began to rustle as rocks fell down, giving the impression that the entire valley was about to collapse.
This immediately alarmed everyone in the entire Demon Abyss, including the cultivators from the five sects who had just come down and the demon cultivators who were already there.
The imminent battle was instantly suspended.
No one knew what had happened, but the ground was shaking so violently that some unprepared cultivators were momentarily unable to stand steadily.
Shi Mingxiu and Fan Hongde exchanged a glance, lowered their raised hands, and the two groups of people headed towards Shi Xuan's location in a clear line.
The Demon Abyss was not large, and both groups of cultivators quickly arrived at the cliff edge where Shi Xuan was.
Shi Xuan had already disembarked from the flying sword.
She stood in the same spot, and after throwing five explosive pills, that area turned into a huge crater.
At this moment, Shi Xuan stood at one end of the pit, while the others stood at the other end.
Shi Xuan was still thinking, "This is such a huge pit, and the Demon Root hasn't appeared yet. It's hidden quite deep."
She looked up and saw two groups of cultivators standing opposite her.
Shi Xuan had anticipated this, after all, such a commotion would likely be felt by everything alive in the entire Demon Abyss.
Shi Xuan immediately came face to face with these people.
Among all these people, Fan Mingzhu had the strongest reaction!
She took a few steps forward in a panic, walked to the side of the pit, and quickly looked Shi Xuan up and down.
It was obvious that Shi Xuan was doing very well. He had completely lost his previous listlessness and instead looked radiant. He seemed dissatisfied with the huge crater in front of him and even seemed eager to try it out.
How could this be! This doesn't look real at all!
She witnessed Shi Xuan being surrounded by demons, saw her being tortured beyond recognition by them, and saw her spirits weaken day by day...
Just yesterday, she personally injured Shi Xuan, and the image of her spitting blood and falling to the ground is still vivid in my mind. How could she have completely recovered in such a short time?!
Most importantly, she showed absolutely no signs of becoming possessed by evil spirits!
She was still waiting to see Shi Xuan killed by her own master, and she was still waiting to see her look of despair and helplessness!
But how could this be!
Fan Mingzhu couldn't accept this reality. She took two steps forward and screamed like a madwoman, "You're faking it! I just saw you go berserk!"
In that split second, Fan Mingzhu suddenly realized that Shi Xuan had been in the Demon Abyss for more than ten days. Today, she had no choice but to become a demon cultivator, whether she wanted to or not!
Once she confirms Shi Xuan's identity as a demonic cultivator, those righteous people would absolutely not dare to take such a risk!
But to her surprise, as soon as she finished speaking, Lin Daozi called out, "Xuan'er, come here."
Seeing the current situation, Shi Xuan understood everything.
On one side of the crater she blasted was Shi Mingxiu leading cultivators from the five sects, and on the other side was Fan Hongde leading elite members of the Tu family.
Now, a battle between the two sides is imminent.
Without the slightest hesitation, Shi Xuan leaped into the air and, as she flew toward her master, threw out two explosive pills, which bounced straight toward the demonic cultivator.
The opposing team was clearly no pushover; with a wave of his hand, Fan Hongde sent the two exploding pills exploding in mid-air.
Shi Xuan added a lot of ingredients to this explosive pill. Although it exploded ahead of time, it still produced a thick cloud of smoke that was so bright that people couldn't open their eyes.
No further unforeseen circumstances could stop this great war.
The Dao and the Demon are irreconcilable enemies. Just as Shi Xuan threw out the Exploding Pill, the two sides attacked simultaneously.
The two most powerful cultivators on either side, Lin Daozi and Fan Hongde, immediately engaged in combat.
Lin Daozi has a solid foundation and is a powerful swordsman, but Fan Hongde's cultivation has increased too quickly due to his demonic possession, and he is now a whole level higher than Lin Daozi.
The two fought fiercely, neither able to gain the upper hand for a time.
The remaining people also joined in the melee.
In comparison, the five sects sent more people, but this place is considered the home ground of the demonic cultivators. If the stalemate continues for a long time, it will be quite disadvantageous for them.
Shi Xuan intentionally minimized his presence, retreating to the very back of the entire battle area.
She had just blasted a crater when these people arrived, giving her no chance to continue.
While everyone was fighting, she released several of her spirit pets from a corner.
This included the treasure-hunting mouse that had never done any work before.
"You've been eating and drinking for free here for so long, and you haven't found a single good thing. Now I'm giving you one last chance to prove yourself. If you find something, I'll keep taking care of you; if you don't, I'll throw you away."
The Demon Root is not a treasure; in fact, it is filled with demonic energy that the Treasure-Hunting Rats find repulsive.
However, the treasure-hunting rat is extremely agile. It will keenly approach spiritual creatures, while actively avoiding demonic creatures that it dislikes.
But now, its owner has given it such a difficult task: to find the thing it hates most!
But the threat has already been used, so now we have no choice but to seek it out.
The golden mouse vanished from its spot and burrowed into the soil.
In the short time it took to release the mouse, Fan Mingzhu had already found it.
The moment Shi Xuan reappeared looking perfectly fine, Fan Mingzhu was about to go crazy.
For a full two weeks, think about what she did during those two weeks? She spent her days and nights watching Shi Xuan being tormented by demons and mocking her misery.
She refused to kill Shi Xuan immediately because she wanted to see Shi Xuan suffer the same pain she had endured!
Even when her father mentioned several times that he wanted to kill Shi Xuan immediately to avoid any unforeseen complications, she rejected it, simply because Shi Xuan's suffering gave her the pleasure of revenge.
But reality gave her a resounding slap in the face!
