Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start
Chapter 1051 - 107 Princess Xidie's Doubts_2

Because she knew very well the massive scale at which the appearance of evil spirits would bring destruction upon the entire East Profound Region.

In the midst of the mayhem, while everyone's face showed panic or their eyes harbored a grave seriousness, there was one exception.

That was Gu Chen.

"The evil spirits have actually found this place, how many Divine Power values would that be?" He concentrated, releasing his divine consciousness to sense the number of evil spirits.

"Hmm?"

But the next moment, Gu Chen's brows furrowed because, as soon as his divine consciousness reached the outside world, a cold and evil force rushed toward him, attempting to completely corrupt it.

Fortunately, Gu Chen's spirit was tough, his primordial spirit powerful, and he had the treasure fragment, Yuyu, which immediately cleared away those forces.

"Be careful, the evil spirits at the God Transformation Realm level can corrupt everything. This ability will strengthen as they grow stronger," Chu Yue Ling, the saintess of Taoxu Road, advised Gu Chen.

"Run!"

With the appearance of the evil spirits, even with the refining holy object, the Primordial Xuanyuan Qi, right before their eyes, no one dared to go for it. At this moment, escaping was the most important thing for them.

"How dare these evil spirits come to the land of the Heavenly Punishment from Above? Are they not afraid of thunder tribulation?!" A cultivator exclaimed in terror, utterly puzzled.

However, after Chu Yue Ling's explanation, Gu Chen understood clearly that the evil spirits did not really have any weaknesses. The power of yang or the force of thunder might annoy them, but they were not their nemesis.

Moreover, evil spirits at the God Transformation Realm level had incredibly strong hiding abilities. They could directly conceal themselves in the void, completely erasing their aura, or assimilating with their surroundings.

Such abilities naturally allowed them to largely avoid the descent of thunder tribulation.

It was just like Gu Chen, who had the heavenly seed and the Yu Cauldron. After shielding his own breath, he would be much safer in the Canglei Ancient Ruins relative to others, but if he made a move and his aura leaked, he would still risk attracting the thunder tribulation.

"Ah..."

Screams rose up as the evil spirits appeared, their bloodthirsty and grim eyes suddenly fixating on everyone present. Many cultivators were devoured alive by them in one encounter, creating an extremely bloody scene.

"Quick, let's go!"

At this moment, despite people like Bai Yu immediately turning to run without any hesitation or lingering attachment.

No one wanted to confront the evil spirits, which were exceedingly difficult to kill, especially when there was a whole group of them appearing.

"Save me... save me..."

Some cultivators shouted, their faces full of despair. As the black fog surged up and hair-raising chewing sounds transmitted, they were alive consumed by several evil spirits.

This cruel and bloody scene turned Princess Xidie's pretty face pale. At that moment, Chen Xuan arrived in a state of urgent concern, saying to her, "Princess, we must leave here immediately!"

His eyes were filled with panic, his complexion was one of fright, and his tone was laced with urgency.

Now, the situation here had become extremely chaotic, with everyone fleeing in a panic. If Gu Chen acted now, he was likely to be attacked by a swarm of evil spirits, which could lead to the exposure of some of his secrets.

Therefore, he also continued to retreat along with the crowd, waiting for a chance to pick off stragglers.

Elsewhere, Princess Xidie and Chen Xuan were also using their spiritual treasures to flee at the highest speed toward the distance.

Chen Xuan's face was panic-stricken, his breath unstable as he gasped for air, his original plan had been to flee directly, but in the final moments, he remembered Princess Xidie, mustering up the courage to overcome his fears, and sought her out.

It wasn't that Chen Xuan truly loved Princess Xidie, but rather that he just wanted to improve their relationship. He was confident that if they could survive and escape from here, the Tenth Princess of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty would definitely fall head over heels for him, even to the point of blind devotion!

In fact, that's exactly what happened. Having been pampered from childhood, Princess Xidie had never seen such a bloody scene before, nor had she ever faced so many demons alone, so her first reaction was indeed to panic.

The arrival of Chen Xuan did indeed touch her, and she was very moved.

However, for some reason, despite their speedy escape, three demons still managed to follow them, relentlessly pursuing the two of them.

Seeing this, Princess Xidie's pretty face became stern, and she bit her silver teeth, saying, "Kill them!"

"The Princess must not!"

Chen Xuan, seeing that Princess Xidie actually wanted to fight back and face the demons, was terrified and quickly stopped her.

"These demons are not only strong, but the hardest part is their recovery power. It's very difficult for us to kill them. What's most important right now is staying alive!" Chen Xuan said with a panic-stricken face, urgently.

In the face of demons, he was genuinely terrified, because Chen Xuan did not want to die.

At the same time, his words also revealed a deep-seated fear of the demons.

Princess Xidie slightly furrowed her brow. Facing three demons, she was confident that the two of them, with the help of their spiritual treasures, could manage to kill them. But seeing how tense and scared Chen Xuan was, clearly terrified to the extreme by the demons, she had no choice but to relent.

"Princess, do not look back, we must hurry and flee this place. The terror of the demons is incomparable, they can silently erode our spirits and turn us into puppets. If we encounter these wretched things again, we must hide away immediately," Chen Xuan said while running, speaking quickly, his tone slightly trembling.

Perhaps, he had experienced something before that made him fear the demons to such an extent.

At that moment, Princess Xidie felt something amiss. She slightly turned her head and looked at Chen Xuan, and for a moment, she felt something was strange.

Chen Xuan's fear of demons was not unexpected—after all, countless numbers in the Upper World feared them, and that she could understand.

However, what was crucial was that not long before, Chen Xuan had mentioned that he and an elder of his sect had gone on an expedition to hunt demons in the Evil King's mountain.

Would Chen Xuan, appearing as he did now, truly take the initiative to hunt down demons?

This question emerged in Princess Xidie's mind.

For the time being, her doubt only grew stronger, but now was not the moment to ask questions.

On the other side, due to the appearance of the demons, everyone from Qingyun Academy and the Tian Yu Clan scattered in a frantic escape, but there were still significant casualties.

The Tian Yu Clan was no exception, even Bai Yu couldn't save them all, nor did he dare to try.

As for Qingyun Academy, the damage was quite severe. Not to mention the others, Xu Yi of Zangjian Mountain Villa and Kui Xin of the Kui Niu Clan, both top prodigies of the academy, were tragically killed by the demons.

As for Yan Qi of the Sun Divine Sparrow Clan, he narrowly escaped with his life, paying the price of an arm.

What the people didn't know was that besides the demons, the infamous Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights from the East Profound Region had also made their appearance in this location.

All of a sudden, the entire Canglei Ancient Ruins became fraught with danger, and a single misstep could lead to death in this place.
