What? You opened a resort on the battlefield of all races?

"They really did make their move!"

Yun Shixian stared intently at the screen.

His face, which always wore a kind smile, was now dripping with gloom.

"Shadow Spirit has indeed infiltrated."

The actions of the alien race were enough to prove that his guess was correct.

Next, we need to find the Shadow Wraith!

"Pass on my orders!"

Yun Shixian suddenly turned around, his wide linen robe fluttering without wind, and a terrifying aura belonging to a Dao Integration Realm expert instantly swept across the entire stage.

"Rescue teams, get out of here immediately and bring these kids back safe and sound!"

The person in charge of the communication array received Yun Shixian's order and his hands moved like a blur on the control panel.

One second, two seconds, five seconds...

Time slips away, drop by drop.

The deacon in charge of relaying the order grew paler and paler.

"Master Yun... Master Yun!"

He turned his head abruptly. "No reply!"

"Communication array not responding!"

"Including three high-level Nine Heavens Realm warriors, all two hundred Flying Heaven Realm rescue personnel we prepared have... all gone missing!"

"What?!"

Yun Shixian's pupils suddenly contracted.

Two hundred Flying Realm cultivators, plus three high-level Nine Heavens Realm cultivators!

This is a force capable of easily conquering the B-level area, and it's also the reason why Yun Shixian dared to use the students of the Twelve Prefectures as bait.

How could these people have all disappeared without a trace?!

"Something's happened!"

Yun Shixian could no longer sit still.

Without any hesitation, he slashed his right hand, fingers pointing like a sword, into the void in front of him.

"Sizzle!"

The solid spatial barrier was like a tattered cloth in front of the Dao Integration Realm expert, and a deep crack three meters long was forcibly torn open.

Yun Shixian took a step forward, and his figure instantly disappeared into the spatial turbulence.

……

Battlefield of the Heavens, edge of Grade B area, Meteor Valley.

This is a secret assembly point designated in advance by the human race, and also a "stepping stone" for more than two hundred rescue teachers to be ready to rush into the battlefield at any time.

"Buzz—"

In mid-air, space violently distorted, and Yun Shixian's figure descended.

However, when he saw the scene inside the valley, he froze on the spot.

There were no signs of a fierce battle, and no severed limbs.

The entire Meteor Valley was completely shrouded in a thick, sweet-smelling pinkish-purple mist.

Within the mist, over 130 Flying Realm warriors and the three high-level Nine Heavens Realm leaders stood silently in place, like wooden or clay sculptures.

Their weapons fell to the ground.

Everyone wore an extremely strange expression.

A man, his face flushed and drooling, was grinning wildly at a dead tree.

Some people had their eyes wide open, with two lines of bloody tears streaming from the corners of their eyes, and were waving their hands wildly in mid-air.

As for the three martial artists at the Ninth Heaven Realm, although their brows were furrowed and their Yuan Power surged, their eyes had lost focus, and they were trapped in some kind of inescapable nightmare.

Illusion!

Moreover, it is a top-tier illusion capable of trapping three high-level Nine Heavens Realm warriors and hundreds of Flying Heaven Realm warriors at the same time!

"Hehehe..."

A delicate laugh, ethereal and penetrating to the very depths of one's soul, suddenly rang out above the pinkish-purple mist.

Yun Shixian suddenly looked up.

In the air ahead, the mist slowly gathered and condensed into an extremely alluring figure.

It was a monster whose upper body featured the features of a beautiful human woman, but whose lower body was a constantly writhing, cloud-like body that shimmered with seven-colored light.

Behind it grow two pairs of nearly transparent butterfly wings, which scatter large amounts of hallucinogenic dust with each flap.

"The Mirage Clan of the Illusionary Moon..."

Yun Shixian gritted his teeth and uttered the name of this extremely rare high-level alien race, word by word.

"Wow, as expected of a Dao Integration Realm expert from the human race, your knowledge is indeed extensive."

The Mirage Clan covered their mouths and let out a series of silvery laughs.

This group actually spoke an extremely fluent human language!

"Old man, don't stare at people like that."

"Your men are overworked. They were just being kind and inviting them to have a nice dream."

"Look how happy they are."

"court death!"

Yun Shixian, enraged, laughed instead, suddenly raising his withered hand and clenching his fist.

"Boom!"

The spiritual energy within a ten-mile radius instantly went berserk, condensing in mid-air into a giant golden hand, a hundred feet long and radiating an aura of destruction, which slammed down on the Illusion Moon Mirage Clan with overwhelming force!

When a Dao Integration Realm expert is enraged, the heavens and earth collapse!

Despite such a terrifying attack, the smile on the face of the Phantom Moon Mirage remained unchanged, showing an air of complete confidence.

Just as the golden giant hand was about to fall and smash the Phantom Moon Mirage Clan into dust.

"Click—"

Suddenly, an extremely terrifying black crack appeared in the sky above Meteor Valley.

An extremely ancient, evil, and terrifying pressure, no less powerful than Yun Shixian's, surged out from the black crevices like a tsunami!

"Bang!"

A gigantic beast claw, formed entirely from black malevolent energy, emerged from the gap and seized Yun Shixian's golden giant hand.

A violent energy shockwave swept in all directions, instantly dispersing the surrounding mist.

Yun Shixian grunted and took three steps back in mid-air, staring intently at the black rift.

Deep within the crevice, a crimson eye, as large as the blazing sun, slowly opened.

"Yun Shixian, you have crossed the line."

The sound exploded directly in Yun Shixian's mind.

From the deepest part of the battlefield, the Abyss, a Dao Integration Realm expert!

"Yun Shixian. The battlefield has its own laws."

"You know that."

Yun Shixian's face was ashen.

The laws spoken of by this Abyss Dao Realm are actually the bottom line that humans and other races have always tacitly adhered to.

On the battlefield of myriad races, martial artists or members of other races whose cultivation level exceeds one level above the corresponding region are not allowed to participate in any activities within that region.

Yun Shixian understood.

His heart sank to the bottom.

This is a trap set by the alien race!

He did indeed use this competition to confirm the information that the Shadow Wraiths had invaded human territory.

But what he didn't expect was that the Shadow Wraiths were hiding much deeper than he had imagined!

Not only did they know the details of the competition, they even knew the location where the rescue forces they had arranged were hiding!

They also dispatched elite warriors from the Nine Heavens Peak of the Illusion Moon Mirage Clan to trap the unsuspecting rescue warriors!

"not good!"

He suddenly remembered something extremely fatal.

Just in case, the organizing committee provided each student participating in the hunting competition with a specially made jade pendant for protection.

As long as the jade tablet is crushed, an absolute defensive shield capable of withstanding a full-force attack from a Nine Heavens Realm expert can be instantly activated.

but!

This shield is not invincible; the Yuan energy stored inside the jade tablet is limited!

If the teacher in charge of the rescue is trapped here and cannot arrive for a long time...

Once the Yuan energy in the jade tablet is exhausted by continuous attacks.

Without the protection of the shields, those trainees are as fragile and delicious as peeled eggs.

Now he's also being watched to death—

Something terrible is about to happen!!
