#51 - Chapter 51 Misunderstanding
Sun Muyang looked up at the sky. It was almost dusk, and nearly a day had passed since Ling Xiao and the others had entered the Void Demon Space. Wen Songnan, on the other hand, still looked calm and collected, without the slightest hint of anxiety.
He finally couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid that someone will beat you to the punch and you'll be doing all the work for someone else?"
Wen Songnan glanced at him, a half-smile on his face, and said, "What's it to you?"
Sun Muyang rolled his eyes. "It's nothing to me. You can stand there if you want. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry. That 'Mustard Seed Space' isn't mine."
Wen Songnan smiled strangely. "To be honest, the Earth Sect's 'Mustard Seed Space' belongs to the Faceless Sect, so it can't be said to be completely unrelated to you. If you want a share, I can agree to it."
Sun Muyang realized that he couldn't see through this old fox at all, so he snorted and ignored his words.
"What if I told you that the people who went in will never come out again?" Wen Songnan said with a smile.
Sun Muyang sneered and turned his face away, disdainfully.
"Do you understand the Void Demon World, the Space Interlayer, the Outer Void?" Wen Songnan asked again.
Sun Muyang still ignored him.
Wen Songnan didn't care about his reaction and said to himself, "Five thousand years ago, several old ancestors of my Wen family entered this space. They encountered powerful alien demons and failed. Before they left, they set up a formation in a certain place. Once this space evolves into a Void Demon World, the formation will automatically activate and open a channel connecting to the Outer Void, ensuring a continuous flow of Void Power. Do you know why this is?"
Sun Muyang remained silent.
Wen Songnan smiled and said, "Anyone above the Nascent Soul stage who wants to enter it must destroy the seal and open the channel. By doing so, they will interrupt the evolution of the Void Demon Space and cause it to form a Void Demon World prematurely."
"The strength of the alien demons in this kind of Void Demon World is fixed. Whatever strength they have before formation, they will have after formation, and they will not become stronger. But with the continuous influx of Void Power, they can be infinitely enhanced. Therefore, anyone who rashly breaks in will surely die."
Hearing this, Sun Muyang couldn't help but laugh and said, "If entering means certain death, then will you, Wen Songnan, still go in?"
Wen Songnan was not angry at all and still had a smile on his face. "Of course, I will go in. For others, it's a dead end, of course. But I, Wen Songnan, can take the treasure and return safely!"
Sun Muyang's smile did not diminish, and he shook his head and said, "Where do you get your confidence from?"
Wen Songnan said seriously, "There are three reasons: First, the alien demons in the Void Demon World will first encircle and suppress the most powerful cultivators, because the world itself always judges the strongest to be the greatest threat. With your sect's cultivators attracting the alien demons, we will naturally be safe."
"Second, my Wen family's old ancestors explored the approximate location of the 'Mustard Seed Space' back then. Although the Void Demon Space has now become a Void Demon World, at least the direction is correct."
"Third, my Earth Sect's direct line of cultivation techniques can sense the precise location of the 'Mustard Seed Space' within a certain range. With these three conditions, while your sect and the Profound Heaven Sect are fighting to the death with the alien demons, I can quietly take the treasure, then leave this place, and then detonate the thunder power to destroy the Void Demon World. Wouldn't that be perfect!"
Sun Muyang couldn't laugh at this time. He looked at Wen Songnan with a solemn expression, as if he was lost in thought.
In the Void Demon World, the endless darkness seemed to have no end. Ling Xiao and his party had been flying for three days, fighting and retreating, and had penetrated nearly 100,000 miles into this world. During the journey, the late-stage Nascent Soul alien demon had appeared twice, once without success and without injury, and once it devoured four early- to mid-stage Core Formation cultivators. At the same time, it was hit by one of Ling Xiao's moves and suffered heavy damage.
Judging from the two battles, this alien demon's strength had increased by more than one level in just two days. This made Ling Xiao very worried.
Fortunately, there was also good news. Zhang Yuanjing's Sound Transmission Jade finally had a different reaction when contacting Wu Yuankui, instead of just a "buzzing" sound. It was a sound produced when some voices were extremely weak and blurry. According to Hu Chou's estimation, the receiver of the Sound Transmission must be within 10,000 miles. Even in the Void Demon World, this was a very close distance.
In the deepest part of the Void Demon World, in a desert, the wind howled and black sand filled the sky. A group of cultivators were surrounded by strangely shaped black monsters. The monsters attacked from time to time, but when they approached within ten feet of the cultivators, they were struck by strands of yellow electric light. Some were reduced to ashes, some howled, and some turned and ran away. Several powerful alien demons, however, resisted the power of lightning and slowly advanced.
An old Taoist in white with long eyebrows and a thin face switched hand seals, and wisps of electric light danced at his fingertips. Wherever an alien demon broke through the formation, he would repair that part of the formation. After the formation was strengthened, it would immediately emit thick yellow electric light, focusing on bombarding the powerful alien demons until they were injured and retreated.
"Yuankui, what's going on? Who are you transmitting sound to?" The old Taoist in white with long eyebrows and a thin face took a breath, looked at the chaotic retreating alien demons, and asked the disciple who walked behind him.
"It's Yuanjing, Master! He keeps sending sound transmissions to my Sound Transmission Jade, but they are all blurry and indistinguishable. I replied, but I guess it's not clear on the other side either," Wu Yuankui said, with a worried expression on his face.
This group of cultivators was precisely the Profound Heaven Sect cultivators led by Qi Tianxiang. The old Taoist in white with long eyebrows and a thin face was Qi Tianxiang. In addition to him, there were also eight Core Formation cultivators, who were Hu Tiancong, Wu Yuankui, Zeng Tianshou, Yu Tianwan, Qian Tianwu, Qin Tianbao, Ying Tianwen, and Jin Tianwu, as determined by the previous elders' meeting.
"Received a sound transmission? Then he must have entered this world!" Qi Tianxiang frowned, then whispered, "Not good, he may have fallen into the hands of the Heavenly Demon Abyss cultivators! This sound transmission may not have been sent by him!"
Wu Yuankui had obviously thought of this. His expression changed drastically. After a long time, he said somewhat heavily, "If that's the case, Junior Brother Yuanjing is afraid... afraid that he has defected to the enemy!"
A look of pain flashed in Qi Tianxiang's eyes, but on the surface, he just nodded calmly and said, "That's possible. However, you don't have to think too much. He's just a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Heavenly Demon Abyss have plenty of ways to deal with him. Even if he doesn't defect to the enemy, if a Real Person searches his soul, most of what he knows will not be kept."
Wu Yuankui did not speak. He knew that his master was comforting him, afraid that he would blame himself too much. In the world of cultivation, traitors have never been tolerated. As long as it is confirmed that Zhang Yuanjing has defected to the enemy, no matter how many reasons he has, he will not escape the fate of being executed.
The surrounding cultivators also heard the conversation between their master and disciple, but the Real Person did not speak, so they naturally would not interrupt.
"Now I'm only worried that the Heavenly Demon Abyss has some special means to track sound transmissions and find us!" Qi Tianxiang sighed, full of helplessness.
With Qi Tianxiang's strength, he could certainly fight and retreat, and even ignore the pursuit of alien demons and move forward rapidly. However, in that case, only a few of the eight Core Formation cultivators would survive.
It was precisely to ensure their safety that Qi Tianxiang repeatedly rejected Wu Yuankui's proposal to rush forward, adopting a conservative strategy, insisting on safety first and traveling second. Therefore, after nearly twenty days, they had only traveled more than 100,000 miles, and it was still unknown how far they were from the location of the Mustard Seed Space.
Of course, he knew that the Heavenly Demon Abyss cultivators would soon enter this space. However, he did not think that these people could accurately find his group in this Void Demon World. Moreover, he instinctively believed that the person in charge on the other side would never ignore the threat of alien demons and simply rush forward, which would inevitably lead to a large number of Core Formation cultivators losing their lives to alien demons, causing panic.
In the current situation, even if they knew that the Heavenly Demon Abyss cultivators were coming, they could not act rashly and ignore the powerful alien demons in front of them.
Three mid-stage Nascent Soul alien demons were like a mountain, making it difficult for them to breathe. Relying on high-grade low-quality Earth Thunder Talismans, they set up a formation to resist and could barely maintain it. If they fled in a panic, they would likely fall prey to those alien demons who were good at using darkness to lurk and infiltrate.
Of course, Qi Tianxiang also had a trump card that could easily kill mid-stage Nascent Soul alien demons. However, these three alien demons were very cunning, and each time they attacked, they split into three directions, never gathering together. If he wanted to kill them all, he would need to use it three times in a row. But who knew if there would be alien demons of this strength later? His trump card was only good for three uses, and after that, he could only wait for death.
"Master, the situation is critical, let's take a gamble and rush forward," Wu Yuankui put aside his distracting thoughts, temporarily stopped thinking about Zhang Yuanjing, and once again made a risky suggestion. "The Land Boundary has already appeared here, so we must be close to the innermost side of the Void Demon World. The space channel to enter the 'Mustard Seed Space' must be on the Edge Boundary on the innermost side."
Qi Tianxiang looked around at everyone and shook his head. "As the saying goes, looking at a mountain makes your horse die. In this Void Demon World, even if you see the channel from afar, it often takes several days to get there. For such a long time, without the protection of a formation, how many of us will die!"
At this time, Hu Tiancong, the oldest and most cultivated late-stage Core Formation cultivator, stood up and said, "Real Person, since we have come here, we must risk our lives to remove this malignant tumor that threatens the sect's spiritual veins. You don't have to always worry about our safety! There is no foolproof plan in this kind of place. Besides, if the Heavenly Demon Abyss cultivators come, it will only be more dangerous."
The other Core Formation cultivators had solemn expressions and nodded in agreement. As for what they were thinking in their hearts, it was not something that outsiders could know.
Qi Tianxiang lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then shook his head again. "No. We had expected the arrival of the Heavenly Demon Abyss cultivators. For this reason, we did not rush and fight recklessly, but proceeded step by step, safety first, spending more than ten days in total."
"Why? Because you are all the future of my Profound Heaven Sect, the most promising talents. Bringing you in is also to let you see the true skills of the Void Alien Demons, so that you can better maintain your original intentions when you break through to a higher realm in the future. In short, do not act rashly unless it is absolutely necessary."
Everyone's spirits were lifted when they heard this. Although they knew that there was mostly encouragement in these words, after all, they were spoken by a Real Person, representing his recognition.
"In the past two days, I have used thunder magic to make more than a dozen Thousand Machine Talismans, which I wear on my body to defend against the infiltration of alien demons. However, the duration is not long. Once activated, the thunder power will be exhausted within two hours, and it needs to be replenished before it can be used again."
As Qi Tianxiang spoke, he took out several silver spiritual talismans and handed them to Wu Yuankui, signaling him to distribute them to the cultivators. "Time is of the essence. Taking advantage of the interval between the alien demons' resurgence, everyone should use mid-grade middle-quality Wind Riding Talismans to widen the distance between us and the Heavenly Demon Abyss cultivators, cutting off their clues to track us through the Sound Transmission Jade. Now, all those who have established sound transmission signals with Zhang Yuanjing, destroy your spiritual jades."
Upon hearing this, Wu Yuankui and Yu Tianwan immediately took out their Sound Transmission Jades, and with a burst of magic power in their hands, shattered the jades.
A strong look of grief appeared in Wu Yuankui's eyes. He knew that Zhang Yuanjing, who had lost his value, had no chance of survival in this dangerous Void Demon World.
