Faced with Mo Tang's temptation, Gu He ultimately succumbed to his temptation and swallowed the beautiful, delicious candy with resentment.
Although our Pill King, after the other party left, felt remorseful and locked himself in his room for a long time, he ultimately chose to lie low, leaving his disciple Liu Ling to pack up before heading to Yancheng...
With Gu He at the helm, and the current power of the Mo Alliance, there will undoubtedly be a period of rapid expansion.
Furthermore, before Mo Tang left for Izumo, he specifically informed Mo Lan to seize this opportunity to seek out our Pill King to refine some elixirs suitable for Dou Shi and Grand Dou Shi cultivation. Therefore, Gu He will likely be surrounded by a large number of low-level elixirs for a long time to come.
...
Yunlan Sect, inside the new sect hall.
Nalan Yanran looked down at Ge Ye with a cold expression and said calmly, "Elder Ge, the sect's affairs will be handed over to you from now on..."
Ge Ye was startled and quickly asked, "What about you, Sect Master?"
"Acting Sect Master!"
Nalan Yanran emphasized, glancing at him.
"Next, I will enter the Gate of Life and Death..."
The Gate of Life and Death, the most mysterious place in the Yunlan Sect, is a place that everyone dreads!
Once you enter the Gate of Life and Death, life and death are out of your control!
How many of the Yunlan Sect's most gifted and elite disciples have never returned after entering?
However, while the Gate of Life and Death is dangerous, it also provides immense improvement.
Those who make it out alive eventually become the sect's absolute masters!
By choosing to enter the Gate of Life and Death, Nalan Yanran has literally thrown her own life and death into the balance!
Ge Ye was stunned by Nalan Yanran's words. Once he recovered, he immediately bowed and pleaded, "Please reconsider, Sect Master!"
Nalan Yanran closed her eyes slightly, her mind flashing back to the image of her teacher leaving, and the figure of that man, a mountain she needed to look up to. When she opened them again, they were filled with determination!
...
Ten days later.
Gazing at the vast rift before him, as if split open by the heavens and earth, Mo Tang couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of creation.
"According to Nalan Jie's records, this Poison Soul Valley is filled with countless branches. The slightest mistake could easily lead to lost paths. Add to that the sinister, corrosive fog, and it's truly easy to lose your way!"
Taking Xiao Qi from his chest, Mo Tang placed it on his shoulder, watching the little creature's playful gaze.
Tapping the creature's forehead, Mo Tang instructed, "You'll lead the way once we get in. Don't let those poisonous creatures disturb us, okay?"
According to the map, the likely location of the Infant Soul Flower was deep within the Poison Soul Valley. Entering would undoubtedly be harassed by countless poisonous creatures, so Mo Tang immediately brought out Xiao Qi, the Sky-Swallowing Python.
With the imposing presence of a seventh-level demonic beast, there wouldn't be many fools in the valley who would dare to block their path, would they?
Xiao Qi nodded quickly at Mo Tang's words, then transformed into a beam of multicolored light and darted into the mist-shrouded valley.
Mo Tang's four wings flapped, and he quickly followed.
Unhindered, and with Mo Tang's speed, in just half an hour, the man and the snake were steadily advancing deeper into the Poison Soul Valley.
The poisonous fog was growing thicker, but Mo Tang's high-level cultivation technique had enriched his internal Dou Qi with exceptional strength, and his Wind and Thunder Dou Qi was also incredibly powerful, so he remained unaffected throughout the journey.
Mo Tang continued his full-speed advance for a long moment, when Xiao Qi, who was ahead of him, suddenly paused without warning...
Mo Tang, following behind, also noticed something and grabbed him, then dove behind a boulder and hid. Swoosh
, swoosh, swoosh!
Several rapid bursts of air-piercing noises flashed past Mo Tang's head.
Judging by the auras of these individuals, each one was a formidable force!
Quickly opening the system map...
Mo Tang spotted the icons of those who had already run several hundred meters.
"Little Medical Fairy?!"
Seeing the striking green blip at the forefront of the group, along with the information marked on it, Mo Tang's heart was suddenly struck.
"Finally, we meet again..."
Mo Tang seemed slightly distracted, as if recalling the figure who had resolutely chosen to leave.
"But why is she here? And are those people chasing her?"
He frowned, carefully observing the situation on the mini-map.
By then, Little Medical Fairy and the others had stopped, and judging by the noises coming from them, they seemed to be fighting.
However, Mo Tang didn't rush over to rescue them immediately...
because, as can be seen from the small map,
Xiao Yixian was already a six-star Dou Huang level expert, and those who were chasing her, except for one five-star Dou Huang, the remaining three were only three-star Dou Huang or below...
in such a short time, there was no way these people could harm Xiao Yixian.
However, judging by Little Medical Immortal's performance, there must be other powerful ones who haven't appeared yet. Otherwise, these scumbags would have been reduced to corpses by Little Medical Immortal's poison alone.
Mo Tang carefully studied his small map, while speaking to Xiao Qi on his shoulder, "Let's sneak over quietly. If I tell you to take action later, you beat them to death. Got it?"
Xiao Qi straightened his upper body, nodded quickly, and patted his chest with his tail, as if to say, "Leave it to me!"
...
"Sky Poison Girl, come back with us, or don't blame me for being unkind!"
The middle-aged man, the only five-star Dou Huang among the four, said in a hoarse voice.
Little Medical Immortal, completely wrapped in a gray robe, paid no attention to the man's barking. Her purple eyes scanned the gray, poisonous mist around her.
"Come out! Is it your Soul Palace style to let these scraps die?"
Mo Tang, who had been slowly approaching, paused at this, and was shocked.
"Soul Palace? So it was the Soul Palace that was hunting Xiao Yixian?"
But how did Xiao Yixian end up offending the Soul Palace? Was it her own butterfly effect?
The Soul Palace itself was founded by the Soul Clan to collect souls, and it's spread across nearly the entire Douqi Continent.
The Northwest Continent branch of the Soul Palace even has its own respected elders. The few guardians who made an appearance in the original novel are all powerful figures affiliated with the Northwest branch.
These people, in their quest to collect souls, target nearly every empire and faction. They'll do whatever it takes to provoke wars, then hide in the shadows to secretly collect souls...
