After questioning Li Yan in detail, the eight people were all moved. If what Li Yan said was true, then the behavior of this disciple was too shocking.
Even Gong Chenying had a dazed expression. Many of the things Li Yan talked about were things she didn't know before. Li Yan only mentioned some of them briefly after treating her and didn't go into details.
However, Li Yan still didn't say some things. If they knew that he had also seriously injured a second-order longhorn beetle and triggered the restrictions on the red wall to kill many first-order demon cultivators, I wonder what they would think.
Li Yan didn't want to say it, but Gan Shi and Gong Chen had personally experienced the serious injuries to Miao Zhengyi and Wang Lang.
Especially since Wang Lang himself is not dead yet, if he wakes up, he will definitely tell about the sneak attack by the black shadow. Moreover, all of this is related to Gong Chenying abandoning Mei Bucai and the others, so he has to tell it.
"The secret of the Wheel of Life and Death discovered by the Taixuan Sect that Quan Jiuxing and Wang Lang told me about ends here and cannot be spread. Do you understand?"
Elder Peng thought for a moment and gave instructions to Li Yan with a serious expression.
After a brief pause, Elder Peng continued.
“Including the deaths of those foundation-building monks, don’t mention it to anyone around you except Wei Chongran, otherwise these three sects will definitely put you on the kill list.
As for Wang Lang, even if he wakes up, I believe that the fact that you can enter the black shadow in the sky will be kept strictly confidential in the Ten-Step Courtyard, and may even be ordered to keep silent. Neither the Taixuan Sect nor the Pure Land Sect will know about this.
Besides, Wang Lang didn’t see clearly whether the one who attacked him was a human, a demon, or an unknown creature.”
Li Yan nodded silently after hearing this. How could he want to be remembered all the time, especially by three huge monsters? He could forget about leaving the sect before he reached the Golden Core stage.
After Elder Peng finished speaking, he also glanced at Gong Chenying.
"You too, do you understand?"
Gong Chenying was still in shock, but when he heard this, he raised his head and nodded blankly.
"Well, after Baili Yuan, Gan Shi and the others come out, I will issue a gag order. But you said you could enter that deadly shadow, how are you sure?"
Elder Peng thought for a moment and then raised an issue that could not be ignored.
After listening to what Li Yan said, the other elders just kept staring at Li Yan and did not interrupt Elder Peng's questions. They all followed Elder Peng's lead on this trip.
Li Yan knew this question would come. A look of fear and dread appeared on his face. After a few breaths, he stuck out his tongue and licked his lips.
“How could I have the guts to try those deadly shadows? I only discovered them by accident. When I was involved in the last stage, I started looking for Sixth Senior Sister’s team.
After searching for a while, he happened to see Wang Lang making a move to knock the Sixth Senior Sister away. Seeing that the Sixth Senior Sister was about to fall into the endless black shadow, he wanted to stop the Sixth Senior Sister from the side, but the result was that he overestimated his own abilities.
Even though Wang Lang was seriously injured, that attack was certainly not something I could block. When I tried to block Sixth Senior Sister's attack, I was knocked into the deadly black shadow behind me.
At that time, his back had already touched the edge of the black shadow. In severe pain, he threw Sixth Senior Sister out, then poured all his magic power into hitting the ground backwards, and with the help of the rebound force, he was able to escape from the black shadow.
At that time, he thought he was going to die, but when he fell to the ground, he found that all the clothes on his back and right arm disappeared. He was in great pain but was fine. Wang Lang did not notice this either…”
When Li Yan said this, fear grew even stronger on his face.
After listening to Li Yan's narration, Elder Peng and others couldn't help but look at his clothes.
"Oh, that set of clothes is gone. Later, when I ventured into the shadow again during the attack on Wang Lang, all my clothes were corroded."
Speaking of this, Li Yan's face actually turned slightly hot, but luckily his skin was dark, so it was not noticeable.
Elder Peng and the others suddenly realized that Gong Chenying had only mentioned the injury briefly before without going into detail. Li Yuyin, on the other hand, looked back and forth at Gong Chenying with a strange smile on her face.
She felt that there was some different meaning in Gong Chenying's previous simple words and Li Yan's current description.
At this moment, Gong Chenying had a complicated expression. She didn't know about this before. She only knew that Li Yan saved her, and all her attention was focused on the magical pill and the navel ring.
He really didn't know that Li Yan had been touched by that terrible black shadow in order to save him. Then he remembered Li Yan's tattered robe, and his exposed right arm and back. For a moment, he felt mixed emotions in his heart, and was inexplicably moved, with a slight sour feeling in his nose.
"If he hadn't been possessed by the poisonous body, he would have died by then. And I was killed by Wang Lang while I was unconscious. I will never know about this. In order to save me, he had already exchanged his life for another's. Is this fate
The elders in the tribe often say that the navel ring is one’s life ring, and that only the brothers who come here on boats singing folk songs should see it. These legends are actually true, and folk songs are love songs that are mingled with blood…”
For a moment, Gong Chenying's thoughts flew to her hometown, and the stories her grandmother often told her when she was a child. Her brother and sister stood among the clear mountains and beautiful waters, looking through the heavy mist, and heard melodious songs under the stars...
But when several pairs of eyes fell on her, Gong Chenying suddenly became much more sober. Her heartbeat quickened, her face flushed, and she nodded quickly, speaking in an inaudible voice.
"Yes, after Junior Brother pushed me out, the back of my robe and my right arm were completely corroded."
However, when the elders saw her expression, they couldn't help but smile. "No wonder the girl mentioned her injury in the fight with Wang Lang before, but she just mentioned it briefly. It turns out there is a reason behind it. It's really hard to talk about it."
They thought of one thing at the same time, that is, when Li Yan was trying to stop Gong Chenying from moving, their skin must have come into contact. How could an unmarried woman say this? No wonder the girl's pretty face turned red when Li Yan mentioned this.
These elders were all spirits and would not continue to question the matter. Elder Yi of Four Symbols Peak spoke again.
"Li Yan, when you came into contact with that deadly black shadow, besides severe pain, did you feel anything else?"
He attached great importance to this matter. In his opinion, this matter was more useful than the green gourd of the three sects. Who knew whether the wheel of life and death would be opened again next time.
"I am also curious. That deadly black shadow can devour everything. This is recorded in all the classics preserved by the sect."
Li Yuyin blinked her eyes at Li Yan, which doubled the pressure on Li Yan.
Of course, the others were also very concerned about this and they all looked at Li Yan with burning eyes.
But Li Yan looked confused at this time. He shook his head first, then seemed to remember something and nodded again.
"I remember something. When I came into contact with the shadow, waves of severe pain entered my body and stirred it. The fragmented poisonous body in my body seemed to be very active, wandering around uncontrollably. Now that I think about it, it seems that wherever it went, the severe pain was immediately relieved a lot."
Li Yan was very smart. He could not pretend to be completely ignorant about this matter, nor could he pretend to know too much about it. In the end, he still pushed the blame on Zhili Du. Otherwise, it would be hard to justify his ignorance. It was possible that these people would dissect their own intestines after returning.
As soon as Li Yan said these words, Elder Yi and the others nodded as expected. They had some guesses before that if there was any secret about Li Yan, it must be his poisonous body.
"Your poisonous body is truly amazing. Not only is it incredible, but even your cultivation is actually..."
Just when Elder Yi wanted to continue asking questions, a dazzling colorful light suddenly lit up from the spherical mountain, immediately interrupting the conversation of several people, and they all looked there through the light shield.
At the same time, the crowds on the surrounding mountains were excited again.
"It's coming out, it's coming out, someone else is coming out."
"I don't know who will come out?"
"It's been almost half an hour since this person last appeared. I don't know if he is in the top three or in the other teams behind."
"Just now, no one from the demon cultivators and the Pure Land Sect came out. It will be embarrassing if no one comes out this time."
Someone said with glee.
On the mountain peak where the Wuliang Sect stood, Elder Peng had also removed the light shield, and everyone's eyes were focused on the center, on the colorful light.
The ball of colorful light was extremely dazzling. After the light slowly dissipated, what appeared in everyone's eyes was a large team of demon cultivators, led by Jin Chuiyan and Wu Wuan, each with a dozen first-level demon beasts behind them.
However, the two monsters looked extremely gloomy at this time. As soon as the light faded, they immediately looked around. Seeing that there was no one else on the spherical mountain, the two monsters were stunned. Then they cast their gazes towards the mountain where the Wangliang Sect was located, with anger revealed in their eyes.
What disappointed the two demons was that they did not see the person they wanted to see, which made the two demons' eyes flash with ferocity. They were teleported out first, but Baili Yuan and his friends were not. It seemed that the teleportation should be in the order from low to high, and sure enough, the benefits were taken by the Wuliang Sect.
After the two demons glared at the Wuliang Sect fiercely again, they didn't speak to each other. They each led a team of demon cultivators and flew towards their own tribes. However, as they took off into the air, the two demons uttered a sentence at the same time.
"Is the Wuling Sect's Bailiyuan still not out? I would like to learn from it again when I have time."
"Mr. Wu would also like to seek advice from Brother Baili and Brother Gan."
The two demons left as they were talking, but anyone could hear the overwhelming hatred in their words.
"Why did these two teams of demon cultivators come out at the same time? It seems like the Wuliang Sect has a deep hatred with these two demons."
"What did Baili Yuan and Gan Shi do to make the demon cultivators of the two tribes hate them at the same time? Could it be that they killed their closest relatives and younger generations?"
"Hey, hey, hey, did you hear that? Their words clearly mean that Baili Yuan and Gan Shi from the Wuliang Sect seem to be still alive."
"Yes, that's exactly what I meant. Just now, these two teams of demon cultivators came out at the same time. Did they get a ranking, or did they not?"
"In my opinion, this shouldn't be the top three teams teleporting, otherwise how could two teams teleport out at the same time!"
The appearance of the two teams of demon cultivators only caused a brief silence in the surroundings, and then discussions broke out all around.
The monks from the Wangliang Sect had happy expressions on their faces. Of course, they also heard another meaning in the words of the two monsters. As for asking for advice or something like that, who among them would take it to heart
