Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

After recovering, the immortals present glanced at the remaining immortals. When they realized that there were only twenty immortals left, a feeling of despair welled up in their hearts.

At this moment, a Celestial Venerable said with a trembling body, "Even if they came into contact with that black mist, they should be fine, right?"

Faced with this question, no one could answer it, since it was their first time encountering the black mist containing strange power. Everyone's eyes turned to Immortal Venerable Xinghe, hoping to get his reply.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Immortal Venerable Xinghe said, "Even if they escaped, their bodies have probably been corrupted by the strange power, and they might turn into strange creatures one day."

Upon hearing Xinghe Immortal's reply, everyone fell silent.

They originally thought that this operation to reinforce the seal would be safe, but it turned out that ten immortals would not be able to return.

This is a Celestial Venerable!

Aside from the Immortal Emperors, the Immortal Venerables were already among the most powerful beings in the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm. Yet, just by reinforcing the seal on the strange creatures, ten Immortal Venerables were lost.

Even in a major battle between super immortal sects, it would be impossible for ten immortal venerables to perish in such a short period of time.

When the Northern Region besieged the Demon Emperor, only a few Immortal Venerables died.

For a moment, all the immortals present fell silent, and the air grew increasingly heavy.

At this moment, the Star River Immortal Venerable said, "Now you all understand how dangerous these strange creatures are. If we cannot strengthen all the seals and allow those strange creatures to break through them completely, only destruction awaits the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm."

"Even if the Demon Emperor ultimately defeats the strange army, the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm will already be devastated, and your forces will be destroyed by the strange army. At that time, countless inheritances will disappear in the great war."

At this moment, the immortals present had completely abandoned their contempt for the strange creature.

Star River Immortal Venerable then glanced at the forbidden area again and said, "Alright, let's go back. We must tell the other teams about this. It's probably difficult for us to seal this forbidden area with our own strength."

As soon as he finished speaking, Immortal Venerable Xinghe took out the immortal ship, jumped onto it, and propelled it toward the direction of White Rainbow Immortal City.

At this moment.

A mountain peak within the Sunset Mountains.

The immortals' warships anchored on the mountain peak, forming a temporary camp.

A group of immortals gathered together, discussing which forbidden land to seal next.

Unlike the team led by Immortal Venerable Xinghe, the team led by Immortal Venerable Xiyue acted more aggressively. They sent ten people to venture deep into the Sunset Mountains to find those forbidden areas. After marking those forbidden areas, the remaining twenty Immortal Venerables went to seal them.

Recently, the ten Immortal Venerables who ventured deep into the Sunset Mountains discovered more than a dozen forbidden areas. However, because their efficiency in reinforcing the seals was so high, the Immortal Venerables responsible for reinforcing the seals were greatly exhausted, which is why they had to stop and rest again.

Unlike the atmosphere on Xinghe Immortal Venerable's side, the atmosphere in the team led by Xiyue Immortal Venerable was obviously very relaxed.

"I didn't expect there to be so many dangerous places in the Sunset Mountains."

"Yes, thankfully these Jedi aren't too difficult to seal."

"At the current pace, we may be able to seal all the forbidden areas in the Sunset Mountains within a year."

"I wonder how many forbidden zones the other teams have sealed off by now." ...

Just as everyone was talking amongst themselves, Lu Chen, who was sitting with his eyes closed next to Immortal Venerable Xiyue, suddenly opened his eyes. He glanced at the immortals present and then said, "Something has happened to a team. We have to go back to White Rainbow Immortal City."

Hearing Lu Chen's sudden words, the immortals present were stunned for a moment. They did not doubt Lu Chen's words, after all, each team had Lu Chen's clone. They just felt a little puzzled. These perilous places were not very dangerous, so how could something happen?
Immortal Venerable Xiyue asked, "What happened?"

Lu Chen said, "The team led by Immortal Venerable Xinghe discovered a large forbidden area deep in the Sunset Mountains. That forbidden area launched an attack on them, and ten Immortal Venerables were swallowed up by the strange black mist of the forbidden area. They are now on their way back."

This……

These words stunned the immortals present.

Ten immortal venerables were devoured?
They immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

Without any hesitation, Immortal Venerable Xiyue immediately said to the other Immortal Venerables, "Return to White Rainbow Immortal City immediately!"

Immediately afterward, Immortal Venerable Xiyue returned to the immortal ship and steered it toward White Rainbow Immortal City. At the same time, Lu Chen controlled his other two bodies to tell Immortal Venerable Cangya and Immortal Venerable Wanjie what had happened to Immortal Venerable Xinghe's team.

A month later, all four teams returned to Baihong Immortal City.

Immortal Venerable Xinghe immediately convened a meeting of Immortal Venerables. High in the sky, the Immortal Venerables all had very solemn expressions.

They discovered that the team led by the Star River Immortal was indeed missing ten people.

At this moment, Immortal Venerable Xinghe said to everyone, "Lu Chen should tell you what happened to us. This is what happened in that forbidden land."

At this point, Immortal Venerable Xinghe placed his finger between his eyebrows, and then condensed a memory bead. The next moment, he pointed his fingertip into the air, and the memory bead flew into the sky. Immediately afterwards, the image from the memory bead appeared in the sky.

Upon seeing the hundreds of kilometers of desolate land in the scene, all the immortals present fell silent. Since they entered the Sunset Mountains to reinforce the seal, this was the first time they had seen such a large desolate land.

Even more terrifying is the enormous vortex in the middle of the desolate area. If the seal on that vortex were to completely fail, countless strange creatures would escape from it.

After the memories condensed by the Star River Immortal Venerable finished playing, one of the Immortal Venerables asked, "Is it possible that they are still alive? After all, they are Immortal Venerables; they shouldn't have perished so easily."

Star River Immortal Venerable said, "That is indeed possible."

"But the strange power can turn immortals into strange creatures. Even if they come out alive, they may not still be human. They may have already become strange creatures."

Upon hearing Xinghe Immortal Venerable's words, the immortals present fell silent once again, and after a long while, none of them spoke.

Now they truly realized the danger of reinforcing the seal. At first, they thought reinforcing the seal would be easy, but they never expected that ten immortals would be in trouble.

In the Celestial Realm, any force that possesses a Celestial Venerable is considered a powerful force. If these ten Celestial Venerables were to truly perish, these ten forces would quickly decline.

After a long while, the Immortal Venerable Wan Jie finally spoke, saying, "Fellow Daoists, there is no need to be too pessimistic. The most urgent task is to seal that forbidden land. Perhaps when we go to that forbidden land, we can encounter them escaping from it."

"For a strange power to transform a person into a strange creature, it takes time. It's not that simply being exposed to this power will automatically turn someone into a strange creature. As long as one's will is strong enough, they won't easily become one." (End of Chapter)
