Chapter 507: Master's Orders Are Hard to Defy

At this moment, within the deep pit of the Prison Division, all around the stone-cone formation where the Forbidden Immortal Land was located, the figures of cultivators were continuously descending.

Xu Qing, having arrived with the previous batches, did not approach the hole where the formation had shattered, but stayed further out, observing with vigilance.

The world inside the hole was the Forbidden Immortal Land; it was dim and permeated with mist.

That was formed by the concentration of foreign substances reaching a certain level.

Everything was hazy and distorted; one could only vaguely see that deep within, there seemed to be many palace structures, and bursts of shrill roars echoed from within, as if this were the true Gate of the Yellow Springs.

While Xu Qing was observing the environment here, the Captain beside him looked at Xiang Ningyan, whose neck he was holding in a headlock, with some surprise.

The other party's response made him feel that this kid must be begging to be bitten.

Thus, with a half-smiling expression, he patted Xiang Ningyan's head and licked his lips.

"Little Little Ningning, you aren't being good."

Xiang Ningyan also wore a half-smile as he looked at the Captain, his right hand seemingly wanting to lift, looking both like he was preparing to strike someone and like he was struggling.

That was the decree of the Blood Demon Commander; as it echoed in all directions, the hundreds of thousands of cultivators who had descended here immediately became busy.

The surroundings were all distorting, and between heaven and earth, foreign substances permeated, while from the mist world below, countless shrill roars were transmitted.

Just like that, according to the plan, a large area was quickly cleared, and it was continuously expanding outwards.

More were divided into small squads, spreading out to the surroundings.

While full of vicissitudes and antiquity, it also carried an extreme sense of eeriness.

Until half a day later, the Blood Demon Commander responsible for this exploration descended from above, floating over the formation hole; as his blood-evil aura erupted and permeated the surroundings, he looked down at the hole and spoke indifferently.

"Senior Brother, is your arm not sore? Do you want to let go of Xu Qing for a moment?"

Everything was in perfect order under the arrangement of this Blood Demon Commander.

As for Xu Qing, he seemed to have resigned himself to his fate; at this time, there were still some struggling emotions, but in the end, he defaulted to silence.

Thus, just as he was about to transmit his voice to inform the Captain of his doubts, a strange cold snort suddenly echoed in his mind.

According to different divisions of labor, some drove war puppets to rush into the mist to slaughter.

While the four were transmitting voices, Xu Qing was still held in the Captain's arms, looking as if he were afraid he would run away, so as the mist flowed past his face, Xu Qing swept a cold glance at the Captain.

Xiang Ningyan stepped back without changing his expression.

Because those buildings were all wrapped in purple-white flesh and were all squirming.

Half a month ago, Little Little Ningning's face was haggard and pale, and the whole person was listless, but now, countless red blood vessels had appeared on his face, like a spider web; while looking very eerie, his expression seemed to carry vitality.

As everyone leaped down, a hazy world immediately entered Xiang Ningyan's eyes.

So his tone when speaking to Xu Qing had some judgment, and at this moment, the other party's sentence was a bit off; it didn't seem to belong to Xu Qing's tone.

The Captain looked at Xu Qing upon hearing this, blinked, and was full of surprise, but secretly transmitted his voice to Xiang Ningyan.

But after looking around, he still restrained himself and turned his head, ignoring the Captain.

The Captain and Xiang Ningyan, who were completely unaware of this, reached a consensus after communicating and headed straight down with the army.

"The Red Moon is about to awaken."

A cold voice came from within the mist.

Seeing this, Xiang Ningyan felt a bit uneasy, and the Captain became even more restless.

It was exactly Little Little Ningning.

I don't know if it was intentional on Xu Qing's part, but as he moved forward, he chose to stand in front of Xiang Ningyan and the Captain, blocking some of the gazes from this group of white-robed people.

"That's not right, Little Junior Brother, where is Master?"

And with the descent, the buildings on the ground were also much clearer than before.

That was telling Xiang Ningyan that our weapon must be used well this time.

The Captain held Xu Qing, running forward while transmitting his voice to Xiang Ningyan.

【Line 40 is a continuation of 39】

Looking around, not only were the buildings like this, but the ground was also the same, covered in flesh, which was shocking to the eye.

It was different from what was seen half a month ago.

As soon as his words came out, the deacons of the Three Palaces and the Imperial Capital Generals immediately walked out, without any hesitation, and rushed straight into the hole, disappearing in an instant.

The four looked at each other and transmitted their voices.

After these people entered the Forbidden Immortal Land, they seemed to have a definite destination; their speed was fast, and they disappeared into the deep mist in an instant.

"Little Junior Brother, do you think this place might be a bottle?"

"Little Junior Brother, is that Xu Qing a bit wrong?"

In fact, I had just sensed from Xu Qing's reaction that the other party was a bit off; after all, it was I who brought Xu Qing back from Mount Zhaoxia Province and arranged for him to be in the Book Order Division.

And what Xiang Ningyan focused on was that among the group of cultivators who covered their heads and whose entire bodies were shrouded in white robes, there was one whose aura was different from the others.

"Everyone, clear the surroundings and open up a safe area!"

The Captain nodded upon hearing this.

Those doing this were mostly from the Sword-Holding Palace and Imperial Capital soldiers.

"Senior Brother, I brought this Xu Qing back from Mount Zhaoxia Province earlier; I know him. He had some trouble in Mount Zhaoxia Province, so his personality changed a bit. Everything... is normal!"

It looked like a huge mirror, but it was not flat; it had an arc, especially the position where we were currently entering, where the curve was even greater.

Xiang Ningyan thought for a moment and nodded.

This point could be seen from the fact that the Imperial Capital soldiers around them instinctively stepped back a few steps when they saw them.

I did not dare to act rashly at this moment; as I restrained myself again, the Captain's words came from the side.

As for the firmament, it was not naturally formed, but man-made.

Looking at all this, Xiang Ningyan was shocked, and at the same time, he felt the comfortable sensation transmitted from his body becoming stronger, as if it were craving to absorb it.

Xiang Ningyan saw this in his eyes and couldn't help but speak.

"Why be afraid of being sore? I have to protect our Little Little Ningning!" The Senior Brother said righteously, looking at Xiang Ningyan sincerely.

"You want to break things? I investigated some intelligence before coming in and know of a place; there should be some good things there. I'll take you guys there."

"Little Little Ningning, don't worry, follow me this time, you will definitely have meat to eat!"

After all, the foreign substances here were too thick; every once in a while, one had to clear them out with all their might within the body to prevent self-alienation.

Some were not there, rapidly constructing formations to make the power of the formation cover the surroundings.

The original cultivators here also instinctively stayed away.

The Captain was still holding Xu Qing, with the four in front and Xiang Ningyan behind.

"Could it be that Master arrived using a special method? Or perhaps he changed his appearance, so it is normal that we cannot perceive him," Xiang Ningyan thought for a moment and replied via voice transmission.

While giving people a strange feeling, it also instinctively raised the intention to stay away.

"Staying here is useless. We are not afraid of foreign substances; we must hurry to find some snacks to taste. We can't come here for nothing, and we must also use Xu Qing, that weapon, well."

And after this group of white-robed people arrived, their gazes swept across the surroundings, and then they stood silently in a corner.

The Captain held Xu Qing and stood beside Xiang Ningyan, looking at everything around them; while he let out a sound of surprise, Xiang Ningyan sensed something, turned his head rapidly, and saw the departing figure of the group of white-robed people surrounding Little Little Ningning.

The Captain chuckled, pulled Xiang Ningyan in front of Xu Qing, and winked at Xu Qing; that expression was unreadable to others, but Xiang Ningyan knew what the other party was indicating at a glance.

This was a palace complex with a huge range that covered the entire land.

Xiang Ningyan's expression was as usual, but doubts also arose in his heart.

The surrounding sky dome was concave here, forming a passage, just like a huge bottle mouth.

"Army, enter!"

Others began to purify the area, driving the foreign substances and flesh of that area toward the surroundings.

And the taller the body, the more astonishing the combat power.

After Xiang Ningyan finished speaking, a satisfied "hmm" echoed in his mind. That cold snort contained a warning; Xiang Ningyan shivered after hearing it, his expression immediately became solemn, and he immediately transmitted his voice to the Captain.

I don't know why, but ever since the first time I patted his head, I instinctively fell in love with that action; it seemed that patting Xu Qing's head gave me a strange pleasure.

The auras on those people were mostly cold and gloomy, different from ordinary cultivators; they seemed to have cultivated a very special technique, appearing as individuals, but blending together.

"Return to Void first, Spirit Storage second."

During this period, Xiang Ningyan and the Captain also saw strange beasts in the mist; this was a type of ferocious beast that was also purple-white all over. They had no intelligence, their bodies were permeated with foreign substances, and their combat power was not bad.

Looking at this scene, Xiang Ningyan immediately withdrew his gaze; he remembered the words of the God's finger at that time.

The Captain beside him also saw all this; the smile on his face had disappeared, and he also stepped forward a bit; the Xu Qing he was holding also moved forward accordingly.

Xiang Ningyan glanced at the Captain, feeling some sympathy in his heart; for most of the day, the other party had never disappeared from the Captain's arm, and it was obvious the Captain was not worried about the weapon running away.

He naturally did not think that Xiang Ningyan had the guts to hit him, so it must be that he wanted to break free from his arm, but clearly, in the end, the other party remembered his kindness, so he movedly gave up resistance.

Countless palaces and temples formed a city.

It was difficult to see clearly.

After speaking, the Captain couldn't help but raise his hand and patted Xiang Ningyan's head again.

Vaguely, some huge strange beasts could be seen appearing from the mist, slaughtering with the Return to Void and Spirit Storage cultivators who had arrived earlier.

Until half a day after arriving here, when everyone had cleared the safe area to a certain range, they began to rest. Seeing Xiang Ningyan like this, the Captain was satisfied.

"It makes no sense; the old man's personality is always gloomy. He should have entered in a way we don't know. Besides, I know the old man too well; once he hears about a god, he probably would drool, the kind that would need us to help him wipe it. He would definitely not turn a blind eye."

Xiang Ningyan and the Captain were also among them; Qing Qiu and Kong Kong Xianglong were also inside.

"So the two of us should hurry down now and get some snacks first." The Captain's eyes glowed as he looked down.

If any direction encountered obstacles that could not be solved by oneself, after reporting, experts would soon arrive to suppress and push through.

This world could not see the end; the ground was blurry, and one could vaguely see a building hidden in the mist, but because they were at a high altitude, what they saw was very small, and they could only roughly feel the sense of antiquity.

Soon, they descended onto the misty ground together with the cultivators from all sides; as soon as they landed, a roar came, and the sound of slaughter echoed in the mist.

Xiang Ningyan and the Captain were also among them; as for Qing Qiu, Kong Kong Xianglong, and others, because there were too many people here, they were not found and their whereabouts were unknown.

Xu Qing's breathing became slightly rapid; after taking a deep look at the captain, he suddenly spoke.

The mist within the hole churned, and faint, shrill roars could be heard; when it became quiet a moment later, a white light flashed within the mist deep inside the hole.

During that period, after Xiang Ningyan communicated with the captain, the four of them accepted an investigation mission and chose to leave; naturally, Hong Ai was among them.

"That's more like it, little Little Ningning, I really, really missed you."

His footsteps were unsteady; his cultivation was at the Heavenly Palace Core Formation level, and as he arrived at this place, the strange wind blowing out from the array hole lifted a corner of his robe's hood, revealing half of his face.

This person was surrounded in the center; it appeared to be protection, but it also contained an implication of house arrest.

The Blood Demon General shouted loudly, stepped forward, and entered the hole, with the others following one after another.

Hong Ai was expressionless; he looked at Xu Qing and was just about to speak, but right at that moment, after a large number of cultivators had arrived at this place, a group of cultivators wearing white robes, their bodies emitting very obscure fluctuations, came whistling down from above.
