Not only that, Ji Yuan also discovered that the stars on the Fate-inducing Disk… compared to what he saw yesterday, nearly sixty to seventy stars were missing!
How could so many die in just one day?
If that’s the case, then there’s only one possibility, something happened inside Blood Sword Island!
Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense swept across, and with another step forward, he transformed into Escape Light and arrived in the middle of Sword Gate Island, where he saw Punishment Sword and Huang Xiu looking equally worried.
At this moment, they were holding the same Fate-inducing Disk.
“In just one day, our Heavenly Sword Sect lost over a hundred disciples!”
As Punishment Sword spoke, he instinctively looked at the Fate-inducing Disk in Ji Yuan’s hand and found that the stars on it were also missing many. Only then did he feel relieved.
“Our Dan Ding Sect is almost the same. I just saw in the span of a few breaths, almost twenty disciples died, which is when I realized something was wrong.”
Huang Xiu added.
Ji Yuan handed over his Fate-inducing Disk, “Cloud Rain Sect is the same.”
“This…”
Huang Xiu first looked at Ji Yuan’s Fate-inducing Disk and then at the one in Punishment Sword’s hand, incredulously asking, “What has happened… How could this be?”
Ji Yuan was also curious about what exactly happened.
If there were hidden dangers, he had already ruled them out before these people went in.
Among the disciples who entered, there was absolutely no hidden Core Formation Cultivator, nor was it likely for Nascent Soul Early or Mid-stage, otherwise, with Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense now, it’s impossible not to detect anything amiss.
If it were Late-stage Nascent Soul… damn, with such cultivation, they could sweep across the entire Three Star Luo Sects, why make it so complicated?
Could it be that these Qi Refining Cultivators brought something into their Storage Bags?
After all, Ji Yuan wouldn’t go through the hassle of checking their Storage Bags one by one, nor was there a need.
Just like now, he’s done everything he could, but the result remains the same, so he has a clear conscience.
It can only be said that some people’s fate is like that.
“I don’t know, could it be that a Tier Two Demon Beast appeared inside Blood Sword Island?”
Punishment Sword speculated.
“No, even if it were a Tier Two Demon Beast, it couldn’t slaughter Qi Refining Cultivators so quickly on a large scale. Moreover, among the three of us, many Peak Qi Refining Cultivators have experience killing Tier Two Demon Beasts, and if they combined forces, it’s impossible for a Tier Two Demon Beast to slaughter them.”
Huang Xiu quickly denied Punishment Sword’s speculation.
“Can we go in?”
Ji Yuan finally spoke.
His thought was simple, if they could go in, then he could just go in himself and take a look to find out.
“No, this Secret Realm is too fragile, us Core Formation Cultivators going in… it would probably collapse as soon as we enter.”
Facing Ji Yuan’s inquiry, it was still Huang Xiu who answered.
“If things really don’t work out, then directly open the passage and see how many can come out.”
Unable to go in himself, Ji Yuan couldn’t think of any other way.
“… That won’t work either, the passage has just opened not long ago, and to open it next time, we’ll have to wait at least a month. It’s precisely because of this that we’ve set the Blood Sword Island trial period to a month.”
Huang Xiu knew Ji Yuan had joined Cloud Rain Sect later and wasn’t very familiar with these matters, so she explained in detail.
After listening, Ji Yuan only felt that Blood Sword Island was becoming more and more like the Nine Nether Forbidden Land, even its rules were the same.
So after thinking it over, he could only ask:
“Are we left with nothing but waiting?”
“In a sense, yes.” Huang Xiu thought of this and her face turned pale.
She couldn’t help but wonder, if all these disciples truly died.
Although Three Star Luo Sects wouldn’t face a situation of inadequate resources, the number of the next generation Foundation Establishment Disciples would definitely be affected.
If more disciples died or were injured, it might even affect the next generation of Core Formation Disciples.
“Demon Dao!”
Punishment Sword seemed to suddenly think of something, gritting his teeth and said, “Demon Dao, it must be the Four Demon Sects!”
He was initially thinking whether Cloud Rain Sect was causing trouble, but upon learning from Ji Yuan that Cloud Rain Sect had lost so many disciples as well, his thoughts changed.
To simultaneously mess with Three Star Luo Sects, besides those Demon Dao, who else could do it?
“Now that you mention it, it probably is!”
Huang Xiu realized this, immediately gritting her teeth and said, “No matter who it is, as long as they entered Blood Sword Island, they have to come out after a month, and then we’ll see how many heads they have for daring to provoke Three Star Luo Sects!”
Ji Yuan quite agreed with this point.
Three Late-stage Core Formation working together, even if they encountered an ordinary Peak Core Formation, they would dare to give it a try.
Of course, if it were a freak like Xun Tianji, then forget it.
“This place is too far from your sect, you can’t summon anyone, I will.”
As Punishment Sword spoke, he took out a special communication Jade Sword Talisman from his Storage Bag.
Huang Xiu glanced at it, saying, “Daoist Xing is quite cautious.”
This also surprised Ji Yuan.
He thought that someone with Punishment Sword’s personality would never ask for help, but unexpectedly…
“Daring to kill inside Blood Sword Island, and in front of us three, they must have come prepared, surely the three of us Late-stage Core Formation are within their calculations, to be safe, it’s definitely necessary to find some surprises.”
Punishment Sword finished speaking with a cold laugh, injecting Mana into the Jade Sword Talisman, which then transformed into a Jade Sword soaring into the sky, and finally heading straight south.
Ji Yuan watched this scene and for the first time, seriously scrutinized the opponent.
