NOVPUB"That direction is... Fallen Star Valley."
Fu Qingsi murmured under her breath, unable to hide the worry on her face. If it weren’t for saving her, Ji Xuexiao wouldn’t have ended up in such a perilous situation.
"You wait here, I’ll go into Fallen Star Valley to check out the situation."
Ten miles away from Fallen Star Valley, Su Changkong had Fu Qingsi wait from a distance.
Though Fu Qingsi possessed a Blood Divine Seed and was not weak in terms of strength, she seemed insufficient when facing the disciples of the Ancient Demon Sect who could threaten Ji Xuexiao, and might even become a burden.
"Senior Blade... please be careful!"
Fu Qingsi understood this and nodded her head, leaving him with a word of caution.
Su Changkong then didn’t linger and, employing his movement technique, headed in the direction indicated by the ice and snow-covered leaves towards Fallen Star Valley.
Fu Qingsi stood in place, anxious as she waited.
Originally, Fu Qingsi had hoped that Su Changkong would seek reinforcements from the Xia Yan family. However, he had come alone. She had heard of the name ’Dao Wufeng’ — a top-power within the Innate realm. But, facing the inscrutable disciples of the Ancient Demon Sect who could threaten someone with a Divine Seed, the outcome was uncertain. This was rather reckless!
Inside Fallen Star Valley, which appeared to be very calm from the outside, there was actually a barrier formed by a large amount of spiritual energy, concealing the situation within. Inside Fallen Star Valley, there had been earth-shattering changes! 𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
The trees and rocks in Fallen Star Valley were all covered by frost.
At the very center of the valley stood an ice mountain, radiating a bone-chilling cold. Upon closer inspection, within that ice mountain stood a figure, motionless and silent.
Above the ice mountain, large quantities of blood-red mist swirled about like serpents, eroding the ice mountain, causing it to shrink and slowly melt away.
Around the ice mountain, various flags fluttered in the wind, with five people sitting silently in meditation. Although their appearances and attire varied, the aura each emitted was enough to send shivers down one’s spine.
"This woman harbors a Divine Seed, managing to evoke the strength within it and self-sealing to defend against us five. We have trouble breaking through for the moment. This is the authority of a real Divine Seed!"
One of the five, a tall and thin elder in black robes, stared intently at the ice mountain and Ji Xuexiao within it; his gaze was somewhat fervent.
These people were indeed disciples of the Ancient Demon Sect. Several days ago, they had refined the entire Fu Family into a Blood Divine Seed using the blood refining method, and were about to take Fu Qingsi, who harbored the Blood Divine Seed. However, Ji Xuexiao appeared.
Fu Qingsi escaped with her help after an intense battle, and ultimately, Ji Xuexiao sealed herself within the power of her Divine Seed in Fallen Star Valley.
The robed elder and others also set up a formation on the spot, aiming to erode her power!
"Heheh! A true Divine Seed, what an unexpected delight!"
The eyes of the other four also shone with greed. A Divine Seed could potentially create a Martial Saint, and this was a huge windfall for them.
"Be careful, everyone. The Fu girl escaped earlier and might go for reinforcements," the elder in black warned the others.
"Reinforcements? Unless it’s a Martial Saint, their arrival would be in vain. Any one of us is more than capable of sweeping through anyone below a Martial Saint!"
A wicked-looking young man laughed softly upon hearing this.
As disciples of the Ancient Demon Sect, practicing the secret techniques of the Demon Sect, their strength surpassed the imagination of an average Innate Martial Artist. They were essentially fighting at an entirely different level, with each of them being among the top echelons of their realm!
As for the five of them working together, even Ji Xuexiao, who possessed the Divine Seed, was compelled to focus solely on defense with her Divine Skills. Even if Ji Xuexiao brought reinforcements, as long as they weren’t Martial Saints, they could be easily annihilated!
