After putting Nie Wu on the back of the golden pagoda, Lu Zijia and the others weren’t in a hurry to leave. Instead, they took the initiative to settle the score with those demonic cultivators.
However, after walking for a while, Lu Zijia and the others sensed that something was wrong.
“Fellow Taoist Zhe, are you sure those demonic cultivators are here?” Lu Zijia stopped and couldn’t help looking at Lu Yizhe in confusion.
Lu Yizhe was also a bit confused. “I’m sure. Those demonic cultivators were only a few hundred meters away from the cave we were in at that time. I even vaguely heard their conversation. They were indeed looking for us.”
Xu Xiu also nodded slightly. “They might have already discovered our tracks. As for why they didn’t catch up after so long, we don’t know.”
That’s right. What Lu Zijia and the others felt was wrong was that they didn’t meet those demonic cultivators who should have caught up with them on the way back.
Lu Zijia frowned slightly and looked up at the Ice Flame of the Nether World floating above her head. “Xiao You, go and investigate. If you find something wrong, come back immediately.”
“Alright, Master.” The Ice Flame of the Nether World rolled its blue flames and flew out like a fire arrow the next second.
Not long after the Ice Flame of the Nether World left, the ground suddenly shook violently. No, it should be said that the entire bottom of the cliff shook violently.
“Caw, caw, caw, caw, caw…”
The violent tremors at the bottom of the cliff made the spirit beasts on the ground and the various spirit beasts hidden on the cliff wall go into a frenzy.
All kinds of sharp and terrified cries rose and fell among each other.
Looking at the various earth spiritual beasts that kept coming out of the ground and the spiritual beasts that kept climbing up or flying on the cliff wall, Lu Zijia’s expression changed slightly and she asked everyone to jump onto the back of the golden pagoda.
Then, she let the golden pagoda fly into the air.
Du Yu, whose face was a bit pale from shock, looked down nervously and said, “What’s going on? Why is this place suddenly shaking?”
“Right, why did such a huge commotion happen without any warning? Could it be that some treasure or high-level spirit beast has appeared?” Another student of the Martial Arts Department was also full of doubts.
“I don’t think so. Look.”
Lu Zijia pointed at the black river that was very calm at this moment. “The entire bottom of the cliff is shaking so violently, but this black river is the only one that’s calm. Something must be wrong.”
“There are sea-type ferocious beasts under this black river.” Lu Yifeng still had lingering fears.
“What? Ferocious beasts?!”
The students of the Martial Arts Department present were dumbfounded as Xu Qi was when he first found out about the existence of the ferocious beasts. They couldn’t believe what they heard.
“Beasts… Could it be that a ferocious beast in the Black River is about to break through?” Gu Boshan held the Intrinsic Spirit Weapon tightly and guessed with an ugly expression.
If a high-level ferocious beast was really about to break through, there would definitely be a huge movement.
It was as if a living being would be plunged into the same misery and suffering during the beast tide that once hit the Delin Country!
Mu Tianyan looked at the calm river with an indifferent gaze and said slowly, “Someone must have alarmed something that shouldn’t be alarmed, and that thing might be related to this black river.”
And at this moment, the Ice Flame of the Nether World, which had gone out to investigate the situation, returned.
“Master, there were indeed demonic cultivators a thousand meters ahead, but when I rushed over, I happened to see a few demonic cultivators being torn apart and eaten by a group of ferocious beasts.”
Thinking back to the bloody scene he saw at that time, even the Ice Flame of the Nether World, which had lived for tens of thousands of years, felt a bit uncomfortable..
