Tan Yun had not summoned the golden dragon spirit lion at this moment for a simple reason. The big guy had sensed the barrier of the third-level adulthood stage more than a year ago, and now he was in the Spirit Beast Bag, undergoing closed cultivation...
Time flowed like a river, and there was only one day left until the eternal land trial.
Many second and third-level demon beasts, upon seeing the heavenly slayer demon ape, immediately trembled in fear and prostrated themselves on the ground, not daring to make a sound!
…
Five hours later, at the Time-Space Immortal Mountain, one hundred thousand miles away from the abyss of the buried gods.
At this moment, on the summit, 3,450 disciples from the divine soul celestial palace, after a year-long trial, with only 3,110 survivors left, along with the 2,215 survivors from the eternal immortal sect, were lurking in a huge cave dwelling next to the cliff, quietly waiting for the time-space tunnel to open.
One disciple lay at the entrance of the cave, occasionally gazing into the distance, a fierce glint in his eyes as if waiting for prey to appear.
After deliberation, the group concluded that during the trial, they had killed 38 disciples from the Huangfu Sacred Sect, while the whereabouts of the other 62 remained unknown, whether they had hidden away or had already died at the hands of demon beasts.
In their view, as long as the remaining 62 were not dead, they would eventually come to the Time-Space Immortal Mountain and enter the time-space tunnel to leave the eternal land.
They dug the cave dwelling to hide here, intending to wait for the right moment to annihilate the disciples of the Huangfu Sacred Sect!
A moment later.
Suddenly, above the summit, as the sea of clouds rolled and the wild wind howled, a pitch-black time-space tunnel with a diameter of one hundred yards materialized in the sky.
The time-space tunnel would close in one hour!
At this time, a disciple of the divine soul celestial palace at the cave entrance turned back to the others inside and said, “Everyone, the time-space tunnel is opening. I believe the surviving disciples of the Huangfu Sacred Sect will arrive soon!”
“Everyone, hold your breath and don’t make a sound. Wait until they come, and then we will cut them down together!”
Time passed second by second, and when there was only one minute left before the time-space tunnel closed, a spirit vessel slowly approached from the distant horizon.
At this moment, a woman stood gracefully at the forefront of the spirit vessel.
She had a slender figure, wearing a long green silk dress, her shoulders delicate and her waist slender, her skin like condensed fat, and her aura resembling a faint orchid.
Her features were extremely exquisite, with bright eyes and white teeth, a beautiful nose and cherry lips, and coupled with her green dress, she looked like a water lily, possessing the beauty that could make fish sink and birds fall, exuding an innate nobility and arrogance.
She was none other than Nangong Ruxue, who, after a year of trials, had progressed from the ninth layer of the fetal soul realm to great perfection.
She had shed the innocence of her youth and appeared a bit more mature now.
At this moment, she gazed at the Time-Space Immortal Mountain peak hundreds of miles away, a vigilant look gleaming in her beautiful eyes.
Behind her were thirty disciples, among them thirteen from the Danmai, two from the Talismans Lineage, three from the Holy Spirit Lineage, eight from the Artifact Lineage, and four from the Wind Thunder Lineage. The other disciples had already perished!
At this time, the people on the spirit vessel noticed that Nangong Ruxue had slowed down the speed of the spirit vessel and spoke up one after another:
“Junior Sister Nangong, I don’t see any enemies on the summit. Could it be that they have already left through the time-space tunnel?”
“Yes, Junior Sister Nangong, after all, the time-space tunnel will close in a moment. Did they not wait for us and return to the eternal immortal sect?”
