One person established a clan

Chapter 330 Chasing People
As the mist dissipated, a scene of utter devastation was revealed.

This place looks like it has been the site of a fierce battle; as far as the eye can see, there are only broken walls and ruins.

Strangely, however, there was not a single person in sight in the valley surrounded by more than a dozen high mountains.

"what on earth is it?"

Wen Qimeng stared at the desolate valley, her face showing astonishment.

How could such a vast Ascension Mountain have suddenly been completely destroyed?

"Go down and take a look."

Su Cheng sheathed his demonic sword, and carrying the puppet and the young lady, gracefully descended into the mountains.

His divine sense enveloped the surrounding area, and the silence within a radius of dozens of miles was chilling.

Wen Qimeng's figure flashed, and in an instant she arrived in front of a broken tower, staring blankly at the ruins.

Su Cheng followed, frowning as he asked, "Qimeng, where is this?"

"It is the Ascension Tower guarded by cultivators from my Wen family."

Wen Qimeng's eyes flickered uncertainly as she murmured, "But now not only is the tower completely destroyed, but even the people have vanished."

If there had truly been a bloody battle, this place should have been left with traces of blood or remnants of life.

However, after repeatedly scanning with his divine sense, he found nothing unusual.
"Could it be that we've lingered inside the Heavenly Gate for too long, and the outside world has undergone tremendous changes?"

“No,” Shi Xuan suddenly murmured, “It must have been done by creatures from the Dark Domain.”

Su Cheng raised an eyebrow: "Xuan'er, where did you see the clue?"

"The spiritual energy here has completely disappeared, leaving not a trace."

Shi Xuan calmly analyzed, "As far as I know from recent events, only after those dark creatures have wreaked havoc could such a scene be left behind."

Su Cheng seemed to be deep in thought.

Xuan'er's guess is indeed reasonable.

If it really was an attack by creatures from the Dark Realm, no wonder there wasn't a single corpse to be found.

Perhaps all the cultivators here, along with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the fluctuations of their souls, have been completely devoured.

With this in mind, he tried to utter the words 'Dark Domain'.

As soon as he finished speaking, an eerie atmosphere gradually emerged around them, as if a shadow had quietly covered the void.

Could it really be true?

Wen Qimeng's face darkened, and she quickly took two steps back, on high alert.

In the shadows, something eerie seemed to appear and disappear, twisting and shifting, tearing through the void bit by bit, emitting a piercing, teeth-grinding shriek.

But in the next moment, a dark shadow suddenly swept past, followed by a frantic shriek that echoed through the void before returning to deathly silence.

Click!Click!
The void suddenly shattered, and wisps of ink-like black mist spilled out, condensing into a slender, pitch-black arm.

“A strange man.”

A familiar, hoarse voice came from within the black mist. "This place...we were recently targeted. Don't be too conspicuous."

"Thank you for your help."

Su Cheng pulled Wen Qimeng behind him and whispered, "Could you tell me what exactly happened here?"

"Invasion. Imminent. This is not the only place under attack."

A slender, dark hand gestured lightly. "Take this; you may call me privately from now on."

Su Cheng's eyes flickered slightly as he reached out and took a peculiar crystal from the other person's hand.

The moment this jade touched my hand, it emitted a chilling and eerie aura. A quick glance revealed that the jade didn't even have a complete solid form; in the blink of an eye, it transformed into several twisted shapes.
[Miluo and Luoluo, special spiritual materials] [The Dark Domain invades the heart, like a shadow]

"I understand."

Su Cheng gripped the black jade in his hand and said calmly, "I will take good care of it."

Take care of yourself.

A slender, dark hand slowly retracted. "Do not act rashly."

After saying that, it seemed about to leave, and Su Cheng quickly said, "Are you leaving again?"

"An invasion is imminent. All sides must be on high alert and cannot linger."

As soon as he finished speaking, the creature from the dark realm departed, and the strange phenomena around them also dissipated.

Wen Qimeng watched with growing astonishment, never expecting that the young master would be associated with that strange creature.
In an instant, a chill ran down her spine, as if she heard a cold whisper behind her ear:
"Stay away from my eccentricities, hmph."

"." Wen Qimeng covered her right ear and glanced back with a strange expression.

In the depths of the void, a faint black shadow seemed to quietly fade away.

Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, knowing that it was the work of the creature from the Dark Realm before it left.

"What's wrong, sister?" The little girl gently tugged at her sleeve.

"It's nothing. I just heard a mosquito buzzing."

Wen Qimeng gently comforted him, then gave Su Cheng a strange look.

Young Master is truly skilled; even the creatures of the Dark Realm are attracted to him and are now secretly 'competing for his attention' with me.
"It seemed to have said something to you before it left?"

Su Cheng, with his keen senses, also noticed something.

"It's nothing," Wen Qimeng quickly shook her head. "Now is not the time to discuss this."

"Yes."

Shi Xuan quickly picked up the conversation, saying, "The most urgent task is to find a way to go to the Upper Realm as soon as possible to investigate."

"The Upper Realm..."

Wen Qimeng looked back at the collapsed tower and said with a wry smile, "I'm afraid it won't work."

Su Cheng frowned slightly. "The path to the upper realm is gone?"

"Ah."

The girl pointed around. "Not only my Wen family's passages to the upper realm from all the surrounding races have been completely destroyed, and all those spiritual treasures and restrictions have been erased without a trace."

Upon hearing this, Su Cheng's brows furrowed even more. It was indeed the Dark Domain that had intentionally disrupted the connection between the Upper Realm and the Five Desolate Domains.
"Since the passage is gone, why don't we just fly up on our swords?"

"No way."

Wen Qimeng quickly denied it. "Although the passage is destroyed, the restrictions from the upper realm remain."

If we rashly fly into the clouds, and are inadvertently affected by the restrictions, we may find ourselves in grave danger.

Su Cheng's mind raced, and he suddenly looked at the Jingxin imprint ring on his finger.

Senior Duanmu seemed to have gone to the Upper Realm to investigate, and perhaps we could learn some solutions from her.

He immediately activated the spirit ring, attempting to contact Duanmu Jing.

"."

But after a moment of silence, the ring did not respond at all.

Su Cheng's heart sank.

Could it be that even Senior Duanmu has run into trouble?

Just then, a cold, low murmur suddenly echoed in my mind.

"—Is it Su Cheng?"

The familiar, indifferent female voice made Su Cheng pause in surprise.

"Is it the Eleventh Sister?"

"it's me."

The voice from within the jade ring entered his consciousness, yet it was somewhat indistinct. "That woman, Duanmu, is temporarily unable to escape."

"What happened to her, senior?"

"She and I explored an ancient forbidden area together, but a sudden change occurred. The path to the upper realm was abruptly blocked, and she was trapped in a gap in the void."

Su Cheng's heart tightened. "Is there any danger!?"

"Given her cultivation level, she won't be in any trouble. She's just temporarily extricating herself from the situation, so I'm entrusting this ring to her for safekeeping."

"That's good"

"But why did you suddenly send a telepathic message?"

"We had just returned from Tongtian Gate and were heading to the Upper Realm when Feisheng Mountain was attacked by the Dark Domain."

Su Cheng paused abruptly, a sudden inspiration striking his mind. He quickly asked, "Eleventh Miss, where is the ancient forbidden land you explored located?"

Are the passages leading to the upper realm intact?

".Huang Tianxuan Realm, Mu Mi Peak."

Eleven's voice remained indifferent. "If you wish to go to the Upper Realm, come here to find me."
