Volume 1 Chapter 119 Holding is okay, but don't come recklessly

  In the blink of an eye, a day had passed, and by the time Zhao Zhuo, Bai Jingjing, and Gu Yu appeared in the small town, it had already gathered thousands of cultivators. The cultivation levels of these cultivators were uneven, but even so many cultivators were not something that ordinary people could provoke.

  Several cultivators who had reached the Unity Realm appeared, and Zhao Zhuo only took a glance. Although he didn't know their identities, he could guess that these few were probably the ones who had displayed the Nascent Soul's divine ability in that tavern.

  It can be seen that these few people have a very high prestige among the many cultivators. When they appear, the originally chaotic and noisy crowd gradually quieted down, and finally everyone's attention was focused on them.

  Only one of the elderly men was seen, carrying a black leather gourd on his back, with white whiskers and an estimated cultivation level in the middle stage of Returning to One, who should be the strongest among the crowd.

  "Gentlemen, I suppose you all know why we are gathered here today. Even if I didn't say it, I'm sure you're all aware that my humble self, Zu Qing, has been entrusted by everyone to take charge of the negotiations with the Chong Xiao Sect. I hope that when the time comes, you will all give us a bit of face and not act rashly, lest we create an irreparable situation."

  "Don't worry, senior! We'll listen to your instructions!"

  The unceasing shouting sounds, whether it's because of Zǔ Qīng's high prestige or everyone is intimidated by his cultivation, at least this group has a leader, and when something happens, there will always be someone to help out.

  Zhao Duo and Bai Jing were mixed in the crowd, not participating in the meaning, anyway, they and the vast majority of people's goals are the same, no more than wanting to take this opportunity to put pressure on Chong Xiao Zong to enter Funiu Cave Heaven. As for entering Funiu Cave Heaven, everyone will even turn against each other and become enemies, but now who can think so much, first enter Funiu Cave Heaven and then talk.

  A large group of people flew through the air, a vast and dense black mass. From time to time, scattered cultivators could be seen joining the crowd, and the closer they got to Mount Fowu, the more scattered cultivators joined in. By the time they reached Mount Fowu, the original two or three thousand-strong group had suddenly swelled to four or five thousand people, an increase of over a hundred percent.

  Although I knew that after entering the Funiu Cave Heaven, everyone would become rivals in competing for treasures, but now with so many people gathered here, we can use this to force Xiang Liang to let us pass.

  The entrance to Funiu Cave Heaven is not particularly hidden, in a secluded mountain valley, on a grassland, the entrance to Funiu Cave Heaven is open, because the cave heaven is wide open, the pure heavenly energy of the universe leaks out from the cave heaven, so as soon as you enter the mountain valley, you can feel the abundance of the heavenly energy in the valley.

  Many scattered cultivators see that the heavenly energy of the heavens and earth that seeps out from the grotto heaven is several times more dense than the heavenly energy of the mountains and valleys, isn't it said that the grotto heaven is even more extraordinary? No wonder everyone has been saying all along that the blessed land of the grotto heaven is filled with countless treasures.

  Contrary to everyone's expectations, the entrance of the cave did not see the people of Chongxiao Sect waiting in ambush, but instead only saw two disciples wearing Chongxiao Sect costumes. The cultivation of these two disciples was not high, and they only had the cultivation of the solidification period. At a glance, it could be seen that they were the most ordinary outer door disciples.

  Could it be that everyone in Zhongsheng Sect has gone mad, letting two people with such poor cultivation guard the entrance of Fuyang Cave Heaven?

  Everyone was momentarily stunned and couldn't understand what the phrase "Zhong Shao" meant. However, in the crowd, Gu Yong patted Zhao Shuo's shoulder and said: "It seems that you really guessed it correctly. The people of Zhong Shao Sect have all entered the Dongtian, even the disciples who stayed behind are so poorly cultivated. They wouldn't bring everyone into the Dongtian, would they?"

  Zhao Duo coldly snorted and said, "No matter what, this time the Zhongsheng Sect has seized the opportunity and taken advantage of the situation. Luo Kaisan is also a remarkable person, and he's actually so decisive. I believe that even if only one-tenth of the people can escape safely, the strength of the Zhongsheng Sect will still increase greatly."

  For a moment, Gu Yong couldn't help but admit that Zhao Suo's words were very reasonable. If it were him, being able to bring in half of the sect's power would be a good thing. But Luo Kai Shan was so reckless, it could be seen that there must be many treasures in this cave, otherwise, Chong Xiao Sect wouldn't have invested so much.

  Those two disciples of the Zhongsheng Sect saw that a large number of cultivators had arrived, and they couldn't help but be frightened, their legs trembling slightly. Fortunately, what made them feel at ease was that they were not there to stop everyone.

  One of them stepped forward with a nervous expression and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have been sent by the master to welcome you here."

  Zu Qing furrowed his brow and said: "Speak up, what do you mean by rushing into the Xiao Sect?"

  That person hastily and respectfully said: "Greetings, seniors. The Chongxiao Sect doesn't have any other intentions. If you all want to enter the Funiu Cave Heaven, we won't stop you either. Everyone can enter as they please."

  The two of them stepped aside and yielded the entrance.

  It seemed that no one had expected Chong Xiao Zong to be so easy-going, and for a moment everyone was stunned and didn't react.

  But soon someone walked out of the crowd and said: "No matter what tricks Chong Xu's family plays, I'll try it first"

  The crowd didn't say a word, they stared at that person one by one, then looked at the two outer disciples of Zhongsheng Sect, apparently wanting to probe.

  Those two disciples couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile when they saw everyone being so cautious, saying that no one was allowed to enter in the past few days, but now they were not blocking anyone, yet every time they said this, others didn't believe them.

  The two of them didn't say much more and simply found a place to sit cross-legged, closed their eyes, and either meditated or wandered off in spirit.

  Just then, that person successfully entered the Fowu Cave Heaven and disappeared without a trace. For a while, no movement was seen from Chongxiao Sect, and only then did everyone finally put their minds at ease. With a loud rumble, thousands of cultivators rushed towards the entrance.

  Everyone is not a fool, entering the Futian Cave Heaven one step earlier can find treasures one step earlier. If you're lucky, it may change your life's fate.

  A steady stream of cultivators entered the Funiu Cave Heaven, and when Zhao Zhuo and Bai Qingjie stood at the entrance, Zhao Zhuo held onto Bai Qingjie's small hand and said: "I don't know where we'll end up after entering the Funiu Cave Heaven, let's try not to get separated"

  Her face slightly flushed, Bai Jing said in a low voice: "Don't go too far later"

  Zhao Duo's mouth curved into a slight smile as he nodded and said, "En, don't worry, I won't do anything rash."

  Although she had no confidence in Zhao Zhuo's guarantee, Bai Jing also had to let Zhao Zhuo hold her in his arms.

  When Zhao Zhuo hugged Bai Jing and threw her into the entrance of Funiu Cave Heaven, many cultivators showed a look of surprise, but soon reacted and immediately thought of why the two did so.

  As a result, many scattered cultivators lost confidence in themselves and simply traveled together. Thus, a strange phenomenon appeared: three or four cultivators would hug each other and enter the Funiu Cave Heaven together.

  Gu Yong did not follow Zhao Zhuo, he wanted to rely on his own luck to find his own opportunities. If he followed Zhao Zhuo, there might not be too much danger, but when the time came and they got the treasure, how would they divide it?

  Space turned, Zhao Zhuo tightly hugged Bai Jingjian, a pair of big hands took advantage of Bai Jingjian's plump and delicate body, causing Bai Jingjian to stretch out her small hand and tap Zhao Zhuo in his arms.

  With a loud splash, the two of them fell straight down from mid-air and before they could even react, they plunged into a vast expanse of water.

  When the two emerged from the water, they were both dripping wet and wanted to fly up, but an invisible force knocked them back into the water. It turned out that flying was impossible here.

  Looking at Zhao Zhuo's face full of puzzled expression, Bai Jing explained: "It seems that this Fowu Cave Heaven is not simple either, and it can't even fly. It may not be able to display instant moves and other divine powers."

  As soon as Bai Jingyan said that, Zhao Zhuo immediately urged his spiritual power to move, but the spatial fluctuations subsided immediately. His body didn't move at all, and Zhao Zhuo bitterly smiled: "I was indeed affected by your words, it seems that Instant Movement divine ability can't be used."

  Bai Jingjing smiled lightly and said, "Isn't this just perfect? This way, everyone relies on their own luck. Even if we encounter a powerful cultivator, as long as they can't catch up to us, they won't be able to do anything to us."

  Zhao Duo's eyes lit up and he laughed loudly: "Not bad, I was worried that if we encountered people from the Chongxiang Sect, what would we do? Now it seems that even the heavens are helping us. This cave sky is unable to fly or teleport, which is great news for ordinary cultivators."

  Just as the two of them were heading towards it, a column of water suddenly shot up from the azure sea in the distance, reaching a height of over ten zhang.

  Zhao Hu looked and couldn't help but exclaim: "Isn't it, could it be that there's some kind of monster in this vast ocean?"

  Bai Jing looked at the water pillar and said, "This sea is also unknown in size, and naturally there are monsters in the sea. We don't know the details of these sea monsters, so it's best not to provoke them lightly."

  Zhao Duo nodded, but his eyes soon widened and stared at the monster that emerged from the water in the distance. His expression was like a pervert seeing a beauty, only lacking drool.

  Seeing Zhao Shuo's strange expression, Bai Jing couldn't help but follow Zhao Shuo's gaze and look over. At a glance, he only saw a strange monster floating on the surface of the water, and there was nothing unusual about it, but Zhao Shuo's reaction seemed a bit strange.

  Gave Zhao Zhuo a push, Bai Jing said: "What are you dazing off about, it's just a demon beast"

  Just as he was speaking, the monster sank into the water, creating a whirlpool that quickly disappeared from view. Zhao Shuo's eyes were fixed on the spot where the monster had vanished, his teeth clenched in anger as he exclaimed: "Heavens! Do you know what kind of monster that was?"

  Zhao Zhuo was startled and stuttered, while Bai Jing said: "Tell me, what kind of monster is it that makes you so flustered?"

  Taking a deep breath, Zhao Zhuang said: "That is the renowned Substitute Beast"

  Bai Jing's mouth opened wide as he trembled and said: "You're saying that demon beast is the legendary Substitute Demon Beast?"

  Zhao Duo nodded heavily and said, "It's that substitute demon beast. Haha, it seems our luck is really too strong, we can even encounter such an almost extinct existence."

  "Substitute demon beast, the demon soul transforms into a substitute soul pearl. After refining it, one can avoid a calamity of the original spirit ancestor's collapse, equivalent to having an extra life."

  "Whatever it takes, we must take down this demon beast! With the Substitute Soul Pearl, we can withstand a disaster of soul scattering, even the Sect Master would be moved to action!"

  At this time, it's not just Zhao Zhuo, even Bai Jingjing was excited and lost her composure, following closely behind Zhao Zhuo as the two of them desperately chased after the substitute beast.

  At this time, Zhao's collection of so many treasures showed its effect. The Water Repelling Pearl was originally of little use to cultivators, but now it was quite useful. Holding the Water Repelling Pearl, the two of them quietly followed behind the Substitute Beast under its protection.

  Looking ahead at the giant substitute beast not far away, Zhao Xiao's heart was filled with excitement and he said in a low voice: "Substitute beasts are extremely rare. Looking at this substitute beast, it should be a male beast. If we're lucky, there might still be a female substitute beast nearby."

  A bright light flashed in Bai Jing's eyes, and his heart was filled with anticipation. If he could capture two substitute demon beasts, the gain would be too great.

  The Substitute Beast does not have strong attacking power like other beasts, but it has a strong escape ability. It is called the Substitute Beast because its beast soul pearl has the effect of substitution, and on the other hand, the Substitute Beast itself has a strong escape ability.

  Zhao Duo and Bai Jing didn't have the confidence to leave the substitute demon beast behind, and besides, the two were thinking that they might be able to find other substitute demon beasts by following the vine, as long as there was one more, it would be good.

  It's unknown how long it took, but Zhao Shuo and Bai Jing didn't deliberately pay attention to the past time. Instead, on the way, the substitute demon beast emerged from the water seven times. If one time is roughly equivalent to a day, then Zhao Shuo and Bai Jing followed behind the substitute demon beast for about 7-8 days.

  So many days have passed, the initial excitement has also gradually subsided. While following behind the substitute demon beast, I am thinking about how to take it down.

  Suddenly, Bai Jing pushed Zhao Zhuo and said with a hint of surprise: "Zhao Zhuo, look quickly, the substitute beast seems to be stopping."

  Zhao Duo hastily looked towards the substitute demon beast, and saw that the huge substitute demon beast was slowly sinking into a deep sea trench, then slowly disappearing into the bottomless sea trench.

  Zhao Duo and Bai Jing appeared above the trench, looking at the trench with dense cold air rising from it. Zhao Duo said in a low voice: "It seems that this should be where the den of this substitute demon beast is located, let's go down and take a look."

  Two people quietly entered the ocean trench, and as they went deeper, the cold air grew heavier, and even Zhao Shuo and Bai Jing felt the chill.

  The chilling intent that pierced their hearts made Zhao and Shuo involuntarily circulate the spiritual energy within their bodies to expel the chill.
