Chapter 450 Mountains and Rivers (Part 9)
All the Nascent Soul cultivators resting inside the energy shield heard Xian Yao's words. Xian Yao had no intention of avoiding other cultivators to communicate with Yun Xi alone, so from the moment she sat down on the futon, all the cultivators inside the energy shield pricked up their ears, as this concerned their life and death.

Yunxi wanted to sigh after hearing Xianyao's words. The evil cultivator who could forcibly contract the Mountain and River Scroll must be at least above the Nascent Soul stage. Otherwise, how could he have forced them to this point and how could he have avoided the patriarch of the Immortal Transformation Sect?

"Fellow Daoist Xianyao, how did you know?"

"I sensed something was wrong when I was sucked into the Mountain and River Scroll. I tried to leave, but the scroll's spirit pulled me into another space. It was the spirit that told us that something had happened to the Mountain and River Scroll, and that's when we realized something was wrong."

Yunxi blinked her almond-shaped eyes and said:

“Since the Mountain and River Scroll has been contracted by the evil cultivator, its spirit is naturally under the control of the evil soul. How could it defy the evil cultivator’s will and transmit information to you? Are you sure what it says is true?”

Xianyao took a deep breath and said:
"The Mountain and River Scroll has always been enshrined in the Immortal Transformation Sect, and is most familiar to the cultivators of the Immortal Transformation Sect. That's why it pulled us into the artifact spirit space after we were sucked in. Although the artifact spirit was forcibly controlled, it still retained its self-awareness, which is why it told us the important information."

It also said that the sect's patriarchs were trying to break the evil cultivators' control over the Mountain and River Scroll. Once the control was broken, it could send us out of the Scroll, however…

Xianyao paused here, seemingly organizing her thoughts, and Yunxi immediately followed up:
"However, we must ensure our survival, and this place is the sealed land of the evil cultivators. We must not destroy it, otherwise, not only the evil cultivators, but even the spirit of the Mountain and River Scroll will not let us leave, right?"

Before Xianyao could reply, Xianxu, standing to the side, widened his eyes, giving her a look that said, "How did you know?"

Yun Xi said speechlessly:
"Everyone realized this after we were teleported here in batches, and since we entered, the sealed evil spirits have begun to awaken, and the strength of the evil spirits that awaken after each spatial fluctuation has also increased."

Although Xian Yao and Xian Xu had already learned about this situation from Xian Qi, hearing it again from Ran Xi still made them feel heavy-hearted.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit somber, Yunxi casually asked:
"Now that you have seen the spirit of the artifact, can you see its form clearly?"

This time, it was Xianxu who answered:

"The spirit's form is a Bifang bird."

Upon hearing this, Yunxi raised an eyebrow, while Wei Yunqing, standing beside her, looked somewhat excited. She immediately said:
"Yunxi and I were the first to be teleported in. At that time, we were besieged by evil spirits. In the end, a Bifang bird saved us and burned all the evil spirits to ashes."

Yunxi said that those were formed by sealing runes, used to suppress the evil spirits here.

According to your current explanation, that Bifang bird is the spirit of the artifact; it can enter this place, and it should also be able to send us out, right?

Wei Yunqing felt that she had seen a glimmer of hope for survival again.

Xianyao and Xianfeng exchanged a glance before turning their gaze to Yunxi.

Yun Xi replied:

“Wei Yunqing is right, a Bifang bird did help us, but I believe that the Bifang bird was a manifestation of the sealing talisman, not the spirit of the Mountain and River Scroll.”

Only evil cultivators could send us into the sealed land of the evil cultivators. Their power systems are the same, and only through communication between the inside and outside can they accurately teleport us here.

Yunxi doesn't mean to discourage anyone, but it's better to shatter some unrealistic fantasies as soon as possible.

Xianxu frowned and said:
"If Fellow Daoist Ranxi's speculation is correct, then how could the artifact spirit, which cannot enter this place, send us out of the Mountain and River Scroll?"

His question hit the nail on the head. Yunxi countered with:
"Xianxu, under what circumstances do you think the seal would become useless?"

Xianxu paused for a moment before replying:
"The evil spirits have all been eliminated, so the seal is no longer needed."

Yunxi shrugged and said:
“You’re right. The artifact spirit will only help us open the sealed land if it’s certain that the evil spirit won’t escape.”

Wei Yunqing's face changed, and she interjected:

"Yunxi, are you saying we have to completely destroy all the evil spirits sealed here before we can leave? What if we can't destroy them?"

"Then let's stay here and fight the evil spirit to the death. I previously thought that the Mountain and River Scroll had been completely controlled by the evil cultivators. If we break through the seal and release the evil spirit, the first thing they would do is kill us and put the evil spirit into the Weiyu Realm."

Now that we know the spirit of the artifact still retains a sliver of consciousness, if we break the seal, it will be even less likely to let us out. It might even force us to perish together with the evil spirit. Its mission is to seal and suppress the evil spirit, causing it to dissipate into the world. As long as its consciousness hasn't been completely extinguished, it will definitely not let us leave the Scroll of Mountains and Rivers.

Wei Yunqing's lips twitched as she said:
"So, according to you, the only option is to fight to the death."

Yunxi corrected:
"It is to completely destroy all the evil spirits sealed here."

As soon as she finished speaking, gasps came from the surrounding area. Clearly, the good news that Xian Yao had brought had now turned into bad news. Just as Ran Xi had said, this battle was inevitable no matter what.

After a brief silence, someone spoke up:

"The evil spirit has appeared again!"

Everyone turned their gaze to the outside of the energy shield. This time, the evil spirit's face was clearer, pressed against the energy shield, gazing longingly at the Nascent Soul cultivator inside.

Xianfeng stood up and said:
"Everyone, please go out and fight in the order we were assigned beforehand. Whether we can leave here or not depends entirely on ourselves. No one can help us. Cultivation is like rowing against the current; if you don't advance, you fall behind. We have no reason to back down when facing evil cultivators. This was true five hundred years ago, and it is true now!"

It must be said that although Xianfeng looked refined, his words were quite persuasive. Cultivators who had embarked on the path of cultivation would not admit to being cowardly. Subsequently, some cultivators stood up and stepped out of the energy shield in an orderly manner.

The moment they stepped out, the evil spirits swarmed around them, their cheers grating on the ears of the departing cultivators.

"Haha, the delicious food has finally been delivered to my door!"

“We’ll devour their souls, leaving their bodies behind. We need these shells to get out of this hellhole.”

"I like this cultivator, so give up your physical body!"

"Don't try to take it from me, it's mine!!!"

The Nascent Soul cultivators who stepped out of the defensive shield all frowned. In the next instant, they flashed to meet these materialized evil spirits. Various spells, sword lights, and saber lights intertwined, and a huge power spread throughout the entire hall. The sealing talismans on the four walls also began to flicker, absorbing the aftershocks of the battle.

Yunxi was certain that the evil spirits this time were all at the early Nascent Soul stage. She felt that she didn't have much time left for them. She set up an isolation barrier again, ostensibly to refine pills, but in reality, her mind had already sunk into the space and entered the chat group.

This time she sent a private message to "Star Trek":
"I need to exchange a batch of energy potions, and also the Hong energy blocks you promised me before. Could you send them to me together?"
