In the secular world.
In the southwest of the Shiwan Mountains, the atmosphere was as tense as a bowstring about to break, and as solemn as the lead-gray sky, weighing heavily on everyone's hearts.
Everyone gathered around Saint Yaoguang like ants on a hot pan. Everyone's eyes were filled with worry and deep doubts, and their gazes were intertwined with Saint Yaoguang as if they were real.
The face of Saint Yaoguang, which was originally as beautiful and calm as a spring flower, was now severely distorted by the sudden headache, like a delicate flower struggling in the wind.
Beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down her smooth forehead like beads that had broken off a string, wetting her hair and clothes.
She held her head tightly with both hands, as if trying to pull herself out of the endless agony. Painful moans continued to come out of her mouth, each one like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of everyone present hard, making everyone's heart tighten involuntarily, as if being tightly grasped by an invisible big hand.
The beautiful face of Kong Huanyi, the leader of the demon clan, was now shrouded in solemnity, with her brows furrowed into the shape of a deep "chuan" character.
She stretched out her slender hands, and spiritual power flickered at her fingertips like bright stars.
The spiritual power was like a fine and soft silk thread, slowly flowing into the body of Saint Yaoguang. It followed her meridians and blood vessels, and shuttled through every inch of her skin and every internal organ like a sensitive probe, leaving no corner untouched.
Her eyes were focused and deep, as if they could penetrate the body of Saint Yaoguang and reach the truth hidden behind the pain.
However, her once all-seeing spiritual power was now like a bird lost in a vast fog, hitting walls everywhere and finding nothing. Every exploration was like a stone sinking into the sea, yielding no valuable information, which made Kong Huanyi increasingly uneasy.
The ancient ferocious beast Taotie also transformed into its true form and stood guard nearby. Its huge body exuded an ancient and mysterious aura, like a towering mountain from ancient times.
Its big eyes, like copper bells, stared at Saint Yaoguang closely, with a mysterious light flashing in them. That was its unique perception ability at work.
It opened its bloody maw, and an invisible force gushed out, enveloping Saint Yaoguang, attempting to explore the anomaly from another angle. However, even a being as powerful as Taotie, after a careful examination, shook its massive head helplessly, finding nothing.
Other people around were pacing anxiously, their footsteps messy and hurried, making a flurry of noise on the ground.
Or they would talk in low voices, their voices filled with anxiety and helplessness, and every word revealed their helplessness in the face of this inexplicable situation.
Just as everyone fell into the abyss of despair, as if completely swallowed by the darkness, Saint Yaoguang's heart-wrenching headache gradually receded like the tide.
She slowly opened her eyes that were as bright as stars, but the fear in them had not yet completely dissipated, like a frightened deer.
She was gasping for breath, her chest heaving violently, as if she had just been pulled back from the brink of drowning.
Seeing this, everyone rushed forward, their eyes full of concern and anxiety, eager to know what had happened.
Saint Yaoguang seemed to have woken up from an extremely real and terrifying nightmare. Her body was still trembling slightly, like a leaf in the cold wind.
Her eyes were full of shock, a kind of disbelief at what she had just experienced, and a deep fear of the unknown.
"Master... Ning Jie is not dead!"
Saint Yaoguang suddenly shouted loudly, her voice echoing in the silent and somewhat oppressive air like a thunderclap, stunning everyone, as if time had stopped at that moment.
Their eyes widened, their faces filled with confusion and disbelief, as if they had heard the most absurd thing in the world. The news was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, instantly shattering their original cognition.
"He simply traveled through time to the ancient times!"
The voice of Saint Yaoguang sounded again, and every word was clearly heard by everyone, but it made them feel so unreal, as if they were in a bizarre dream.
When everyone heard this, the expressions on their faces became more varied, with shock, suspicion, confusion, and all kinds of emotions intertwined.
They looked at each other, their eyes conveying confusion to each other. For a moment, they didn't know how to react. The whole scene fell into dead silence, with only the slightly rapid breathing of the crowd due to shock echoing in the air.
"What did you say? How is this possible?"
Kong Huanyi was the first to break the silence. She widened her autumn-water-like eyes, and the astonishment in her eyes flooded like a surging tide.
Her voice trembled slightly, revealing her inner turmoil. As the leader of the demon clan, she was knowledgeable and experienced, but at this moment she was also a little overwhelmed by the sudden news.
Saint Yaoguang took a deep breath and tried to calm her heart which was beating wildly like a horse running out of control.
She clenched her fists tightly, as if drawing strength from the action, and then said:
"Out of nowhere, a memory from an ancient time a hundred thousand years ago appeared in my mind.
In that memory, my mother and I were saved by Ning Jie. We were in Tianfeng City at the time, facing a devastating disaster. The entire city was shrouded in darkness, and enemies were everywhere chasing us.
Ning Jie was like a ray of light shining into our dark world. He led me to avoid those devil-like pursuers.
She paused, a look of reminiscence in her eyes, and continued:
He also slew the Twin Blade Rakshasa of Tianfeng City, a formidable foe. The Twin Blade Rakshasa wielded his blades, gleaming like silver moons, each swing unleashing a storm of death. But Ning Jie showed no fear. Wielding the Dinghai Divine Needle Iron, he engaged the Twin Blade Rakshasa in a thrilling battle.
