Chapter 120: Shaking the Immortals

He felt the earth begin to tremble.

No one knew that, as a crisp sound rang out, the earthy-yellow boulder on the mountaintop suddenly cracked open, and the surrounding tremors seemed to grow increasingly violent.

Immediately following this, wisps of black Qi emerged from the fissure.

At that moment, a chill suddenly rose from the depths of everyone's hearts, rushing straight to their crowns and making their entire bodies feel cold; in an instant, they felt an extreme sense of danger, the likes of which they had never experienced before.

How could they not understand that something major had likely already occurred?

Therefore, they all accelerated at once, flying toward the exit.

Those wisps of black Qi, carrying an ancient, ancient aura, shrouded the Shili Taohualin and the entire mountain in an instant.

It was not just one mountain!

Two, three, eight, ten—a full ten great mountains, stretching over a range of a hundred miles, were all shrouded in this black mist, and beneath this black Qi, demonic energy filled the sky.

At that moment, Lv Qingshan's expression changed drastically; no longer caring about anything else, he grabbed his disciple Cailian's wrist and, exerting his Daoist mental cultivation method to the fullest, rushed toward the exit at top speed.

Xie Lingyu also sensed the danger and, likewise carrying Tian Ruoyun, unleashed her power without reservation, shooting toward the exit.

The two disciples of the Kaiyuan Academy were even more terrified, their souls nearly leaving their bodies as they ran forward desperately.

The higher one's cultivation realm, the more one could feel that fear originating from the soul.

And Su Yuanshan's sensation was a hundred times more intense than theirs.

He sensed an irresistible, formidable demonic energy coming to overwhelm them.

I shake!

I shake!

Su Yuanshan's desire for stability and safety overrode everything else; he no longer fought unprepared battles as he had before, but instead directly summoned help to fight a group battle!

But how do I shake? How is this Immortal-Shaking Mirror used?

Sigh, no time to worry about that!

Su Yuanshan did not overthink it; he directly took out the Immortal-Shaking Mirror and injected his spiritual power into it.

He heard a "hum," and a white light suddenly erupted from the Immortal-Shaking Mirror, shooting out like a light arrow; with a "bang," it exploded in the sky like fireworks, scattering in all directions until the faint light finally vanished into nothingness.

After doing all this, Su Yuanshan did not stop for a moment and flew rapidly toward the exit, yet after a while, nothing had happened! Let alone an immortal, not even a single hair of an immortal had appeared!

Su Yuanshan frowned slightly, thinking to himself, what is going on? Are there no immortals in the vicinity?

Or did they not hear? Or are they ignoring me? Or perhaps they are too weak to dare to come?

However, suddenly hearing a cry of alarm, Su Yuanshan hurriedly stopped his steps, turned his head to look, and his frown deepened.

Those wisps of black demonic Qi had already caught up to Lv Qingshan and the others.

Tian Ruoyun and Cailian had passed out cold, while Lv Qingshan and Xie Lingyu shielded them tightly behind their backs, desperately resisting the wisps of black demonic energy that kept circling around them.

Sima Wuhen and the two disciples from the Kaiyuan Academy were in an even more miserable state; the two Kaiyuan Academy disciples had exploded and died, bleeding from their seven orifices, with raised black veins spreading across their entire bodies like little worms—on their faces, hands, and necks! They had been completely eroded.

Those terrifying wisps of black Qi were actually emerging from Sima Wuhen's mouth and nose; his eyes were entirely black, as if soaked in ink, pitch-black, and he was beyond saving!

Black Qi permeated his entire body, like burning black flames, constantly shifting behind him, baring fangs and brandishing claws in a terrifying manner, as if it had a consciousness of its own!

Su Yuanshan couldn't help but curse, and no longer holding back, he directly took out the Huanying Shenxing Lü from his Spirit-Empty Ring and put them on, then took out the Yellow-Dao Purple-Gold Bell to hold in his hand for emergencies; he even took out the Water Spirit Bead to add another layer of protection for himself.

He used the Water Spirit Bead to control the nearby stream water, shielding his body and forming a water shield beside him, yet he still felt it wasn't safe enough!

He was just about to summon the City God's Mountains and Rivers Seal when he heard an "ah."

He saw Xie Lingyu looking at him, seemingly stunned by the number of his magical treasures and his actions, though clearly, their situation was not optimistic.

Although Lv Qingshan and Xie Lingyu were desperately resisting with their power, they were still being eroded by the black mist bit by bit, with black veins protruding on their faces, wriggling like earthworms, which made Su Yuanshan's scalp tingle slightly!

He did not want to end up with the same fate as them!

Running away now was clearly safer for him, with the lowest risk factor, but...

Just as Su Yuanshan was struggling internally, torn between the dilemma of saving people or protecting himself and running away,

Xie Lingyu, while desperately channeling her power to resist and channeling spiritual energy into her disciple Tian Ruoyun to help her resist the black mist's erosion, did not forget to shout to him and Lv Qingshan.

"If I meet with misfortune, I hope the two of you will look at my humble face and take care of my disciple; Lingyu thanks you here!"

Her face was full of sorrow, and her voice was heart-wrenching, making Su Yuanshan feel a bit ashamed, as he had just been thinking about abandoning them and running away.

And Lv Qingshan, while channeling his own power to resist and channeling spiritual energy into Cailian, smiled bitterly.

"What Sect Leader Xie said is also what is in my heart; if I, Lv, unfortunately fall here, I also hope Sect Leader Xie and..."

He turned his gaze toward Su Yuanshan and said with a pleading expression.

"I hope Sect Leader Xie and Young Master Su can take care of my poor disciple!"

One with a miserable smile, the other full of sorrow, as if dying people were giving their final words.

It made Su Yuanshan sigh slightly, and he no longer even had the mood to run.

What to do? What should I do?

Sigh, forget it, I'd better save them; after all, Xie Lingyu and Lv Qingshan have been quite good to me!

However, although he had made up his mind to save them, he would no longer fight battles without certainty, striving for a sure success.

He thought to himself, even if it's not ten-tenths sure, it must at least be eight-tenths.

While thinking, Su Yuanshan took out his Random Teleportation Talisman.

Even if he couldn't win, he had to be prepared to slip away smoothly! Personal safety comes first, after all.

He even took out that Spirit-Artifact Long Sword and the Baoqi Long Sword and consecrated them.

He saw the two magical long swords fly up, hovering beside his right shoulder behind his back, glowing with a cold, cyan light—truly a sight to behold!

And that Water Spirit Bead kept circling around his body, like a miniature moon orbiting the earth.

When he finished all this, Xie Lingyu finally exhausted her strength and could no longer hold on.

The moment she passed out, she entrusted her last hope to Su Yuanshan; he saw her shake her hands, using her last bit of strength to toss her beloved disciple Tian Ruoyun toward Su Yuanshan.

Lv Qingshan also seemed to have reached his limit, unable to help but spit out a mouthful of hot blood; like Xie Lingyu, the moment he fell to the ground, he swiped Cailian away, toward Su Yuanshan.

"Young Master Su... I beg of you......."
