Chapter 947 - 855: People of the Demon Realm
The group searched the Wanshi Mountain for two full days, but to their surprise, they found nothing during that time."Strange, where did those corpses go?"
Their hearts were full of doubt.
Tang Chaoyang asked Duan Gujin, "Young hero, do you know where those Soul-devouring Steel Spiders went?"
"It's very likely they are hiding! They might be hiding in the underground crevices!"
Duan Gujin couldn't give an accurate judgment either, he hadn't expected this result.
The group had seen quite a few crevices before, and they had ventured into them to search, but they found the underground crevices extremely narrow, even if they used the Bone Shrinking Technique to shrink their bodies, they still couldn't enter.
And when they found some very large underground crevices, they discovered that the interior of those crevices was filled with a powerful force of death.
They attempted to enter underground, but soon they found that the corrosive force within that death force was very strong.
Once they intruded inside, the death force would invade every part of their bodies, causing damage to their bodies and Divine Souls.
Even a Shattering Void Realm expert like Tang Chaoyang couldn't stay underground for long.
Moreover, they found it even more terrifying that once they entered an underground crevice, under the influence of that death force, they couldn't use Divine Sense Inspection within the crevices.
With no other choice, the group had to return to the surface.
After returning, they continued to search for clues in the Wanshi Mountain.
But after checking for two days, they still found nothing.
With no clues found for four consecutive days, they believed that the truth was that the giant spider and the Nine-Colored Corpse Worms were hiding in the underground crevices.
"What should we do?"
The group was at their wits' end.
Tang Chaoyang discussed the situation with a few elders and decided to return to the Chaotic Ancient Immortal Sect first.
Upon returning to the Chaotic Ancient Immortal Sect, Tang Chaoyang found Duan Gujin, and let him stay in the sect, offering the Holy Origin Divine Pills as his Cultivation Elixirs.
"Young hero, we suspect that the giant spider might have been frightened, so it led those Nine-Colored Corpse Worms to hide! I have secretly placed people around those underground crevices, and as long as the giant spider senses that no one is around, I believe it will come up from below, and when it does, we can seize the opportunity to ambush it! This time's ambush must ensure nothing goes wrong, or we may never find another chance to attack it! I think that Soul-devouring Steel Spider is very cunning, once it has suffered a setback, it won't be fooled easily!"
Tang Chaoyang said.
Duan Gujin, upon hearing this, thought for a moment and agreed with Tang Chaoyang.
But until now, he still couldn't ascertain the true identity of the giant spider.
At the same time, he wasn't sure whether the controller of those Nine-Colored Corpse Worms was the giant spider.
To unravel all these mysteries, they needed to find the giant spider.
"Sect Leader, rest assured, as long as we haven't found the giant spider, I will stay in the Chaotic Ancient Immortal Sect to help you!"
Duan Gujin said earnestly.
"That's great!"
Tang Chaoyang was unaware of Duan Gujin's real intention of wanting to save them.
He merely thought Duan Gujin acted out of chivalry, not knowing the underlying reason why Duan Gujin was willing to help them.
Inside the Chaotic Ancient Immortal Sect, Duan Gujin once again met Mo Yan.
Mo Yan heard that in this action, Duan Gujin performed exceptionally, and without his help, the Chaotic Ancient Immortal Sect might have faced numerous deaths.
"My friend, I heard your performance in Wanshi Mountain was outstanding!" Mo Yan praised.
Duan Gujin smiled lightly and said, "Mo Yan, our cultivation is about the same, no need for such formalities, I prefer straightforward conversations, without too much circumlocution! In the future, I'll call you Brother Mo, and you can just call me Brother Duan."
"Alright! Brother Duan!"
Mo Yan's eyes flickered momentarily, puzzled why Duan Gujin seemed to hold him in such esteem, especially since his performance in the Dimension Advancement Competition wasn't particularly notable.
For some reason, Mo Yan always felt there was a special emotion in Duan Gujin's gaze towards him.
He felt that the way Duan Gujin looked at him reminded him of two words.
Passionate!
Thinking of those two words made goosebumps rise all over his body, and his buttocks involuntarily clenched.
Seeing Mo Yan, Duan Gujin recalled the scene of his sacrifice in his past life, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
In his past life, after encountering Mo Yan in the Divine World, Mo Yan only briefly told him a few things, and Duan Gujin didn't particularly note the details then; he only knew that Mo Yan lost an arm in the Wanshi Mountain operation, and his sect suffered countless casualties, almost leading to its annihilation.
Duan Gujin knew that with only these clues, he couldn't save the sect leader of Mo Yan's master and his disciples, so he had to find a way to make Tang Chaoyang alert to the Wanshi Mountain.
This Wanshi Mountain operation had made him realize that the giant spider could hide in a place where no one could find it, which troubled him greatly — he hadn't expected the giant spider could hide in a way that they couldn't track it down.
