Neither of them managed to break free. The enormous snake body closed in, the space trembled, and a suppressive force swept over them, forcing them to fall into the depths of the clouds.

The two could only continue their escape, frantically fleeing through the thick clouds.

The giant black snake did not kill them, but continued to drive them away.

The two fled frantically, but suddenly stopped in their tracks at the same time.

Before me lay an orchard, with huge fruit trees laden with bright red fruit, exuding a spiritual aura and emitting a refreshing fragrance.

This was the only thing they saw after entering this secret realm that differed from the stone tower and the clouds. Moreover, these fruits were filled with spiritual energy and emitted a faint fragrance, so they must not be ordinary things.

Perhaps this is some kind of great opportunity, one that belongs only to the two of them!
Strangely enough, after the giant python drove them into this area, it stopped chasing them and instead hid in the clouds outside the gate, where its jet-black scales could only be seen occasionally through the clouds.

As the two walked through the orchard, their eyes were always drawn to the bright red, juicy fruits, as if some kind of magic was calling to them, compelling them to approach and pick them.

The deeper they went, the stronger their desire became.

As their eyes glazed over, a figure flashed before their eyes—it was Gu Shenge.

Their dazed eyes cleared, and upon recognizing Gu Shenge, both of them showed joy.

"Brother Gu!"

"Brother Gu, what are you doing here?"

They were aware of Gu Shenge's abilities, and meeting him here would make the road ahead much easier.

Gu Shenge came over after sensing their presence, never expecting that such an orchard was hidden here.

Gu Shenge walked up to the fruit, its fragrance filling the air. He reached out to pick it, and the expressions of the two female cultivators from the Cangxuan Holy Land changed drastically.

"Brother Gu, this thing is of unknown origin. Just now, that giant python kept driving us this way. It doesn't seem like a good thing. You mustn't act rashly!"

Gu Shenge had spatial principles flowing in her palm, creating a square spatial grid, from which she picked a fruit.

The two female cultivators quickly followed, their eyes probing as they looked at the fruit in the spatial compartment.

Gu Shenge immersed her divine sense into it, peeling back the layers to unravel its mysteries.

Outside the orchard, Zhou Qing and his group also arrived. They had followed the direction Gu Shenge had left in, but they hadn't expected to end up in this area.

Seeing the garden full of red fruit and sensing its mysterious aura, they could no longer contain themselves.

Two of them had already reached out and picked them, and after sensing them for a moment, they put them directly into their mouths.

The red fruit is mysterious; it melts in the mouth, condensing into a pure and profound power that fills the entire body. The divine patterns contained within it also merge into the bloodline, continuously spreading within.

Under the impact of this force, the two suddenly fell to the ground, howling in pain.

"what!"

“It hurts so much!”

"My body seems to be undergoing a strange change!"

They wailed and rolled around on the ground in agony.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Qing and another female cultivator hurriedly stepped forward to investigate.

"Buzz!"

A violent energy surge erupted from the two of them, sending them flying.

The violent impact seemed to displace their internal organs, and after crashing onto the clouds, they vomited several mouthfuls of blood. Their companion was still rolling on the ground, screaming in agony, as if someone were tearing them apart. The two men were terrified, their faces pale and filled with doubt and uncertainty.

"Oh!"

Suddenly, something exploded behind one of the cultivators, bursting out bright red blood energy and forming a cloud of blood mist.

Amidst the blood and qi, one could vaguely see white things moving about. It was unclear what they were, but the waves of light they emitted were terrifyingly powerful.

That powerful and overwhelming force displaced their internal organs and nearly caused serious injury.

"Huhuhu..."

A fierce wind arose within the blood-red aura, dispersing the dense blood energy and revealing white figures within—their companions, only now they had transformed into…

Their clothes were all torn to shreds, their bodies were shriveled like skin and bones, their skin was like a dried-up layer, and their gender was no longer discernible, neither male nor female.

Most strikingly, they have a pair of enormous, pure white wings on their backs, shrouded in a hazy halo, sacred and pure.

If it weren't for their extremely ugly appearance, Zhou Qing would have thought they had successfully obtained some kind of opportunity, but now, looking at them like this...

This is no longer a matter of chance, but whether their friends are still alive, and whether the monster before them still possesses the will of its companions.

"He Song, Jiang Han, how are you? Are you alright?"

Zhou Qing called out, but the two tall figures remained silent, as if they had lost consciousness, and just floated there.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing and his junior sister exchanged a glance and sighed inwardly. Judging from the current situation, it seemed that their companion was no longer around.

As the two were filled with surprise and doubt, the monster's huge wings suddenly began to flap, stirring up gusts of wind and waves. The wind transformed into blades, slashing towards Zhou Qing and his junior sister.

The two quickly circulated their spiritual power, and the laws emerged, transforming into a golden bell that stood upright in front of them.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The wind blades kept impacting, producing a dull, loud sound.

"Xu Yi, they've lost their minds! We have to go!"

The two had no choice but to abandon their companion, who was clearly no longer the original soul, but more like a monster.

It would have been better if they hadn't run away. Once they started to run, the two monsters seemed to be activated. Their spiritual energy surged and emitted bursts of white light. Their eyes flashed with a cold light. Their three-meter-tall bodies arched and suddenly exerted force to chase after the two.

"Buzz!"

The clouds surged, their speed was incredibly fast, and they let out a series of shrill and piercing roars, their voices containing a certain Daoist charm.

Zhou Qing and Xu Yi felt a ringing in their ears, and the scene before their eyes became blurry and shaky, gradually losing focus. Their minds became hazy, and they felt as if they were about to fall into a coma.

Their escape slowed down, and their minds began to crumble. In their dazed state, they saw two companions who had eaten the fruit pounce on them, their sharp jaws biting into their necks.

They didn't know how much time had passed, but when they woke up again, everything around them was the same, except for a stinging sensation on their necks.

Zhou Qing and Xu Yi looked at each other and saw two small bloody holes on their necks, as if they had been left by sharp teeth.

However, I don't seem to be feeling any discomfort, so it shouldn't have much of an impact.

"Could it be that they finally regained their senses and let us go?" Zhou Qing asked, touching his neck.

"Maybe, I wonder how they are now, sigh!" Xu Yi sighed. (End of Chapter)
