Chapter 883 Feeling Uneasy
A ball of crimson flame rose from Li Ning's palm, burning the Evil Lord's shattered nascent soul to ashes. Only then did she casually speak:

"He was just a puppet to lead the charge for us. He's accomplished nothing after all this time. He should have died long ago. Besides, the remnant soul of the God-Emperor sealed in the ancient battlefield has already disappeared. Don't tell me you didn't sense it."

Li Ning's words were met with silence, clearly indicating that everyone in the Wuwang Ruins understood.

"The remnant soul of the God Venerable exhausted its divine power to construct this passage in order to help us leave the Ruins of Nothingness, hoping that we could get out of this dark and sunless place. Unfortunately, the Heavenly Dao interfered and blocked the exit with a fragment of an ancient battlefield, forcing us to confront the cultivators of the Spirit Realm."

We thought that as long as we could kill the spirit cultivators blocking the entrance, we would regain our freedom. Unfortunately, there were too many old friends who had fallen on the ancient battlefield. Even in death, they were unwilling to let us leave.

I used the Evil Lord's hand to cast a spell, allowing the remnant souls of my fallen companions to suppress the immortal souls attached to the skeletons. But this fool actually tried to infiltrate the spiritual cultivators' camp by fusing with the immortal bones. He was exposed by the backlash before he even got close to the camp. If he hadn't been useful, I would have crushed him long ago.

The reason for eliminating him now is not only to avoid wasting the elixir on his antidote, but also because the new puppet has already matured!

Li Ning's words plunged the surroundings into silence once more. After a long while, a somewhat hoarse female voice rang out in the air:
"Li Ning, you should know that our time is running out. If we fail again this time, we will be scattered to the winds!"

The Divine Lord may have foreseen this, which is why he spared no effort in sacrificing his remnant soul power to construct a passage for us, precisely to help us escape the Void of Nothingness.

Li Ning sneered:

"So what? This is what he owes us. Back then, we followed him without hesitation, fighting against the entire Heavenly Realm. But in the end, he was defeated by a goddess, unable to even preserve his own soul, which was scattered everywhere. And we were banished from the Thirty-Three Heavens and imprisoned in this dark and sunless place. I am not reconciled! I am not reconciled!"

Li Ning's roar echoed throughout the Wuwang Ruins. This time, no one responded to him. However, the blood pool below began to churn. A hole appeared in the center of the blood pool, and dense evil energy swirled and rose from it. After a moment, a hazy figure appeared.

Spirit Realm
Yunxi, who was meditating, suddenly opened her eyes. She gently touched her twitching right eyelid. After the feeling of panic dissipated, she walked out of the tent and looked at the two sides fighting on the front line.

The Evil Lord has not appeared for a long time. Several True Lords in the Spirit Realm speculate that the "entanglement" she cast has taken effect. Even if she failed to poison the opponent, she must have seriously injured him.

During this month, the evil cultivators and evil creatures continued to relentlessly attack the spiritual cultivators' positions, attempting to reclaim the lost territory. Unfortunately, without the presence of the Evil Lord, they were ultimately outmatched and failed to break through the defenses or launch any more evil insects onto the battlefield. This raised the vigilance of the six True Lords, who believed it to be a brief calm before the storm.

Yunxi shared the same idea, so during this period, apart from meditating for three hours every day, she spent the rest of her time taking on tasks at the Pill Pavilion, constantly refining various pills, which greatly reduced You Zisang's pressure.

Xiangsi Zi refined another batch of "Entwined Love" and handed it over to the Pill Pavilion. She then told everyone that she had gained something from refining "Entwined Love" and was going into seclusion to break through her cultivation. She was very confident that she could reach the Void Refining stage.

In fact, Yunxi had already given the newly refined "Entanglement" to Xiangsizi in private. In order to ensure that Xiangsizi would not lose her life by refining "Entanglement", Yunxi halved the toxicity of "Entanglement" during the refining process. As long as Xiangsizi is careful enough, she should be able to advance smoothly.

After accepting the emerald jade bottle, Xiangsizi solemnly thanked Yunxi:
"Thank you, Venerable Ranxi. I am sure I will be able to break through to the Void Refinement stage this time."

Yun Xi said with a smile:

"I know you've been preparing for this day for a long time, and I have faith in you!" Xiang Si Zi smiled charmingly, then handed Yun Xi a jade slip along with a storage bag.

"Your Excellency, this is the recipe for 'Entwined Love,' a formula that I have adjusted repeatedly. If it is necessary to refine this poison during my seclusion, I am afraid only you can handle it. The storage bag contains the poisonous plants I have cultivated."

After speaking, Xiangsi Zi paused for a moment before handing over the storage bag. She then withdrew the bag, took out a transparent ball of light, erased her divine sense imprint, and handed it to Yun Xi, saying:
"Your Excellency, this is my personal herb garden, filled with poisonous plants that I cultivated myself. If you wish to refine poisons, you may use them directly. I hope this will be of assistance to you."

Yunxi waved her hand and said:
"This is your personal herb garden. You should keep it yourself, in case you need it when you break through. I'll accept the prescription, and I've also collected some poisonous plants here. You don't need to contribute your personal herb garden."

Seeing the seriousness in Ranxi's voice, Xiangsizi realized she had been making assumptions. Although Ranxi rarely used poison, she was, after all, a successor of the Medical Immortal Sect, and her poison skills were many times better than hers. So, she quickly retrieved her personal herb garden, took her leave, and went into seclusion.

Yunxi watched as familiar faces around her went into seclusion one by one, and felt that all the cultivators who entered the ancient battlefield this time would make great breakthroughs.

Three days later, Ren Tianning, Zang Feng, Wu Wang, and Han Baifeng came to visit Yun Xi together.

Ren Tianning still wore a black veil over her face, and the bell on her wrist made a crisp sound when she turned her wrist. Her eyes had also regained their former brilliance, indicating that she had healed the injury to her eyes during her seclusion.

Zang Feng has recovered his lost cultivation level and even made a breakthrough, now possessing the strength of the late-stage peak of the Integration Realm.

Wu Wang has been helping You Zi Sang at Dan Ge recently, so he is the one among the four who sees Yun Xi more frequently. However, every time he sees Yun Xi, his eyes still light up, and his gaze towards Yun Xi is incredibly "loving".

Han Baifeng had a good sleep this time, and not only did he recover his seventh-level strength, but he also pushed his cultivation to the peak of the seventh level by breaking through his limit. He could break through to the eighth level at any time, which made him smile at everyone he met.

This was the most complete gathering of the five since they last completed the mission to retrieve the immortal bones. After exchanging greetings, Yunxi took the lead in bringing up the topic:

"Gentlemen, have you come to see me today because of some important matter?"

Ren Tianning pursed her red lips slightly beneath the black veil and said:
“I heard from Ancestor Fengxin that the True Venerables of the Spirit Realm already know why we were locked by the Heavenly Dao, and the sect will try to help us overcome the Heavenly Tribulation. However, I am still uneasy.”

Zang Feng straightened his robe and continued:

"Before the Ancestor of Canglou withdrew from the ancient battlefield, he left me with all his protective treasures. But even though my cultivation has recovered and I have even made a breakthrough, I feel no joy at all. I am still terrified."

Wu Wang withdrew his gaze from the "precious treasure," simply uttered a Buddhist chant, and said nothing more.

Han Baifeng scratched his short, stiff white hair and said:

"I just always feel sleepy, as if something is urging me to break through as soon as possible."
