Turning Point Secret Pavilion.

"Damn it, what does the real exit actually look like? This is so frustrating!" Chi Dun charged forward, smashing through one door after another.

But behind every door was just another secret pavilion.

Secret pavilion, secret pavilion, secret pavilion... Chi Dun suspected he had fallen into an infinite loop.

"If I had known it would be like this, I would have been better off continuing to guard Fire Persimmon Immortal City and fighting the Red Flame demonic beasts!"

But there was no help for it.

This was a transfer order issued personally by Meng Kui!

"Hmm?"

After crashing into a secret pavilion, his eyes suddenly lit up; he saw a Shadow Demon Cultivator.

The Shadow Demon Cultivator opened a door and vanished in a flash.

"Where are you going!" Chi Dun was overjoyed and hurriedly gave chase.

After chasing through three consecutive secret pavilions, the Shadow Demon Cultivator seemed to have a clear goal. Every time the opponent chose a door, they did so without hesitation, yet with a method to their movement.

The distance between the two sides kept shrinking.

Chi Dun finally caught up to the Shadow Demon Cultivator.

He threw a punch with all his might; the blow was heavy and powerful, the air itself exploding under the force of his fist.

The Shadow Demon Cultivator turned while leaping, raising their arms to block.

Boom!

With a loud bang, the Shadow Demon Cultivator was sent flying backward at an even greater speed.

Chi Dun remained where he was, gritting his teeth.

A massive orange-yellow talisman was imprinted on his chest, and the talisman was spreading outward, forming a powerful sealing force.

Chi Dun's eyes were bloodshot, his body and mind filled with violent shock and rage!

He exerted his Jin Dan-level magic power to the limit; his muscles bulged, heat steamed off his body, and his veins stood out like dragons.

He gave it his all, slowly raising his head; because of the seal, this small movement felt as difficult as lifting a mountain.

Chi Dun ignored all of this, staring fixedly at the direction the Shadow Demon Cultivator had fled, roaring in his heart: "It's him!"

Although it was only a single exchange, Chi Dun immediately understood that this was the very same Shadow Demon Cultivator he had fought before and chased into the Fire Persimmon Forest!

"I never expected I would actually find you, ah!!!" Chi Dun screamed, swinging his arms with all his might to completely shatter the sealing talisman on his body.

Blood immediately sprayed from his nose and mouth.

But he didn't care at all, filled with rage, and rushed with all his might toward the direction where the Shadow Demon Cultivator had disappeared.

Bang, bang, bang.

The sound of doors being smashed and doors being closed almost merged into one.

"Who is it?" A Jin Dan true disciple of the Purple Firmament Pavilion was also exploring the secret pavilions.

Within the range of their spiritual sense, a cultivator with a Jin Dan aura had suddenly intruded.

"A Shadow Demon Cultivator? Heh heh, so am I!" The Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan true disciple's smile immediately vanished, because they discovered the opponent was heading straight for them.

The Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan true disciple looked solemn, fully on guard.

The next moment, the Shadow Demon Cultivator burst into the secret pavilion, and the two sides faced each other.

The Shadow Demon Cultivator did not stop, choosing the door on the left and pushing it open to enter again.

Just as the Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan true disciple relaxed, their spiritual sense detected another Jin Dan.

It was Chi Dun!

They went on guard again.

After all, this time, they were disguised as a Shadow Demon Cultivator.

Chi Dun saw the Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan but didn't care at all, diving straight into the door on the left.

Under the coverage of Chi Dun's spiritual sense, he had long since detected the strong aura of the Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan true disciple, and he also kept a close eye on the Shadow Demon Cultivator from before.

Seeing Chi Dun leave in a hurry, the Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan relaxed once more.

They were about to continue exploring when they suddenly changed their mind. They had no leads themselves, and seeing Chi Dun's bitter, vengeful appearance, they decided it would be better to follow and see!

Chi Dun was still within the spiritual sense range of the Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan, who decisively set off.

The pursuit continued.

"Quick, help me stop the Shadow Demon Cultivator in front!" Within Chi Dun's spiritual sense range, a Meng family Jin Dan cultivator appeared, and he decisively sent a message to seek help.

The Meng family Jin Dan cultivator had been defeated and fled due to Zheng Danlian's betrayal, and was currently taking elixirs to recover.

Upon receiving Chi Dun's message, they immediately cooperated actively.

The Shadow Demon Cultivator was entangled by the Meng family Jin Dan, and in the end, Chi Dun caught up again.

The three of them began to fight in the secret pavilion!

Bang, bang, bang.

Dense black smoke exploded, poisoning their spiritual sense.

Within the black smoke, countless black pythons pierced through the battlefield, forcing Chi Dun and the Meng family Jin Dan to retreat step by step.

The ferocity of the attack made the Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan, who was approaching the battlefield, slow their pace.

The Shadow Demon Cultivator temporarily repelled the two enemies and pulled away.

Chi Dun and the Meng family Jin Dan, having shaken off the black smoke, continued to pursue relentlessly.

Within their spiritual sense range, Zhu Xuanji suddenly appeared!

The Meng family Jin Dan was suspicious and uncertain.

Chi Dun, however, was overjoyed.

According to common sense, the Meng family and Zhu Xuanji had already had a falling out. But Chi Dun, this body cultivator, didn't think much of it and sent a message directly: "Divine Catcher Zhu, the Shadow Demon Cultivator who fled into the Fire Persimmon Forest is right ahead!"

"Oh?" Hearing this, Zhu Xuanji's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he immediately set off.

He also joined the pursuit team.

But in terms of distance, he was further away than the Meng family Jin Dan and Chi Dun.

The pursuit team was expanding!

Another Shadow Demon Cultivator appeared within everyone's spiritual sense range.

◆C〇

Chi Dun and the Meng family Jin Dan did not recognize them, but Zhu Xuanji understood the other's true identity.

"Brother Zhou, quickly block that person!" Zhu Xuanji sent a spiritual sense message.

Zhou Nongying was disguised as a Shadow Demon Cultivator, so naturally, he had to let his own people know. Especially Zhu Xuanji! Otherwise, being killed by his own people would be too unjust.

Zhou Nongying received the message and immediately threw out an array disk, which set up an array in an instant, blocking the door.

The Shadow Demon Cultivator opened the door and fell right into the array.

The smile that had just appeared on Zhou Nongying's face froze the next moment.

They saw the magic array bulge, the array patterns distort, and the space ripple; the Shadow Demon Cultivator passed directly through the ripples and broke out of the magic array with ease.

"Divine Ability—Desertion in the Face of Battle?!" Zhou Nongying's heart was greatly shaken.

Everything he had learned was almost entirely focused on the field of arrays.

The Shadow Demon Cultivator mastering this divine ability was simply his nemesis!

The Shadow Demon Cultivator charged straight at him.

Zhou Nongying was terrified, his fighting spirit wavered, and he subconsciously retreated to the side, widening the distance.

As a result, he gave up the door behind him, and the Shadow Demon Cultivator pushed it open and entered.

After Zhou Nongying realized what happened, he didn't dare to pursue, hurriedly starting to dismantle the magic array to prevent blocking his own people.

Setting up the array was easy, but dismantling it was relatively difficult; he immediately raced against time, flustered and busy.

Zhu Xuanji, through spiritual sense communication, learned from Zhou Nongying that the Shadow Demon Cultivator actually mastered the divine ability of Desertion in the Face of Battle, and his heart sank.

Countless clues in his mind rose and fell, and for a moment, there were signs of them connecting.

Just at this moment, a spiritual sense message arrived; it was the Shadow Demon Cultivator himself contacting Zhu Xuanji: "Divine Catcher Zhu, instead of chasing me, you'd be better off investigating the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit!"

"Let me tell you: for so many years, the Palace Spirit has been exploiting small loopholes in the permissions to modify the Magma Immortal Palace. It has constructed several channels from the magic power pool, seemingly stealing magic power, accumulating it bit by bit, for an unknown purpose."

Zhu Xuanji's heart was shocked, and he thought of the Ten Thousand Mile Wandering Dragon.

He snorted coldly and continued to pursue relentlessly.

At the same time, Zhu Xuanji sent a spiritual sense message, on one hand telling the Shadow Demon Cultivator to stop and accept an investigation; on the other, he contacted Zhu Zhen, informing the latter of this key clue.

Zhu Zhen received the clue and was overjoyed: "Brother, I investigated before and indeed discovered some structures that seemed superfluous and temporarily added. If I follow this lead, I might very well find the hidden Ten Thousand Mile Wandering Dragon!"

He immediately began his action.

This movement immediately terrified the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit!

"What is Zhu Zhen looking for?"

"You aren't going to deal with the countless demonic beasts, you aren't going to fight with the other Jin Dan, what are you looking for?!"

Zhu Zhen's goal was so obvious; he was following the magic power channels, following the vine to find the melon.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit immediately burst into flames all over.

It was so anxious it was burning up!

"I've been exposed!"

"The Ten Thousand Mile Wandering Dragon has also been exposed!!"

"Damn it, when did the Zhu family know this secret?"

It wanted to escape right now, dive into the Ten Thousand Mile Wandering Dragon, and just leave.

No!

The Magma Immortal Palace was still restraining it; it couldn't get away.

"Meng Chong, you piece of trash!" It roared, furious and desperate.

Meng Chong had already fallen into an absolute disadvantage in his battle with Ning Zhuo.

Ning Zhuo released several mechanical creations to guard himself and resist Meng Chong's constant onslaught. Meanwhile, he himself was already standing in front of the big door, starting to piece together the wooden boards.

Such a situation plunged the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit into despair.

It was extremely anxious, knowing that Meng Chong was bound to lose.

To solve the predicament, it had to make another breakthrough!

Forced into a corner, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit had no choice but to muster its courage, break its own limits, and take the initiative to contact Meng Kui!

"Meng Kui, if you don't make a move now, it will be too late!!"

"Who?" Meng Kui was surprised.

The next moment, he smiled slightly: "Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, you finally stopped playing dead and took the initiative to contact me. Don't worry, everything is under my control..."

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit roared in anger, directly interrupting him: "Idiot! You have no idea, that Ning Zhuo..."

It had just said this much when a flame guillotine instantly condensed into shape.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was unable to move, waiting for the execution!

The guillotine fell fiercely, and the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was beheaded once again, its head and body separated. The dragon head widened its eyes, rolled onto the ground, and immediately turned into specks of spiritual light, drifting away.

The Magma Immortal Palace strictly forbade revealing cultivator information; the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was so anxious it violated the rules, and before it could finish speaking, it was beheaded and severely injured.

The information it wanted to reveal was thus cut short.

"Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit?" Meng Kui's calls received no response.

In an instant, his heart was greatly shaken!

"I was actually blinded by luck, thinking everything was under my control."

Although the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit didn't say it out loud, for Meng Kui, known as a wise general, it was already enough!

He used this opportunity to see through the fog of luck, and his mind became completely clear.

He wanted to use his divine ability to divine the situation of the battlefield again.

The timing was wrong!

Meng Kui sensed that the chance of victory was slipping out of his hands rapidly; he pinched his fingers to calculate, his brows furrowing, tighter and tighter.

In the Magma Immortal Palace.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit panted, its vision restored.

Its size was less than thirty percent of its complete state, its whole body dim and lusterless, still shaken, its spirit exhausted.

Meng Kui sent a spiritual sense message, calling out constantly: "Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, if you want freedom, you must join forces with me! Do you know that Zhu Xuanji has long known of your disloyalty?"

"It was that Ning Zhuo who harmed me!" The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, having reached this point, could only think of the paper and the poem Ning Zhuo had given to Zhu Xuanji! How could it not guess that this was Ning Zhuo's conspiracy!

"Are you just bullying me because I don't understand literature?!"

"Scheming against me right to my face. Hateful, too hateful!"

Meng Kui took a deep breath and cast his spell with all his might.

Two magic power hands abandoned the front line and flew toward the thunder-electric wall formed by the Turning Point Secret Pavilion. Then they automatically dissolved, eroding the secret pavilion.

Luck Technique—Current Evil Retribution!

In this world, cause and effect retribution is not that it won't be reported, but that the time hasn't arrived.
