Behind the cracked void, it seemed as if some terrifying existence was gradually approaching. Just by hearing the deafening roar, Yin You's body and soul began to tremble uncontrollably.

Swish!Swish!Swish!

At this time, several streams of light rose from the ground, stopped near the cracked void, and turned into human figures.

These figures include men and women, old and young, some wearing luxurious robes, and some wearing hard armor. They look different, but without exception, they all have a mysterious and ethereal temperament.

The faces of these monks were solemn at this time, as if they were facing a powerful enemy. They stared at the cracks in the void, and no one knew what they were saying.

Yin You, who was by the lake, endured the discomfort in his body and mind and flew towards them.

In the intervals of using spiritual energy, Yin You discovered one thing, that is, he had lost contact with the five internal organs gods in his body, and all the five internal organs gods, including Hong'er, disappeared.

Fortunately, there was nothing unusual about the spiritual energy in his body and it could still function normally. Yin You quickly flew to the vicinity of the void crack.

After approaching those monks, Yin You immediately stopped and bowed slightly to them:

"Yin You has met several seniors."

Those monks seemed not to have seen Yin You. Their eyes were still fixed on the crack in the void. They were still talking about something, but the strange thing was that even though they were so close, Yin You didn't hear a sound.

Ok?

Yin You raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw this, and soon realized something was wrong: "Could it be... that these people can't see me?"

He flew towards the monk closest to him.

He was a boy wearing a red bellyband, and looked about seven or eight years old. His face was tender and fair, but his expression showed the vicissitudes of life, and his temperament was extremely contradictory.

"senior?"

Yin You flew to the side of the boy monk and called him "senior".

But the boy monk ignored Yin You beside him, still staring at the crack in the void, talking to other monks.

Yin You waited for a moment, and when he saw that the boy monk had no reaction, he plucked up his courage and stretched out a hand towards him.

The next moment, something unexpected happened.

Yin You's palm went straight through the body of the boy monk without any hindrance.

“Are these monks also illusions?”

Yin You was bolder and flew to other cultivators to experiment. He found that the situations of these cultivators were exactly the same as that of the boy cultivator.

He and these monks seemed to be separated by an invisible and intangible world and could not touch each other. Although Yin You could see them, he could not hear their voices.

Just as Yin You flew to the last young man with a long sword on his back and stretched out his hand to pass through his body, the young man suddenly moved.

He instantly drew out the long sword from behind him, frowned his sword-like brows, and with a sword-like light shining brightly in his eyes, he slashed directly at Yin You with the sword.

Yin You was startled by his unexpected attack and quickly used the secret technique of teleportation to dodge to the side.

The sword light was blazing, passing by Yin You and striking the crack in the void.

"What a terrifying sword intent! This senior is at least a tenth-level sword master."

Yin You, who had been hiding aside, came to his senses and remembered that these monks could not see him and their attacks were ineffective against him.

Feeling the sharp sword intent remaining in the void, a trace of thought flashed through Yin You's eyes:

“Although these cultivators are all at the tenth level, they have a certain aura that Master and the others do not have…”

Yin You has now seen many powerful beings in the Tenth Realm, whether they are human cultivators or demons from outer space. Even he himself has briefly possessed the combat power of the Tenth Realm several times with the help of external forces, so he is very familiar with the aura of the powerful beings in the Tenth Realm.

But the cultivators in front of Yin You were very different from the tenth-level cultivators he had seen before. They had a mysterious aura that was ethereal and otherworldly, as if they carried the ancient charm of simplicity and immortality.

Wait, fairy spirit?

A gleam of divine light suddenly flashed in Yin You's eyes: "That's right! It's the immortal energy!"

Looking more closely at the attire and behavior of these monks, Yin You discovered some details that he had not noticed before.

He had not thought about this aspect in detail just now, but when he looked at it again, he found that the clothes worn by these monks were of quite ancient style, unlike the clothes and attire of the monks nowadays. The behavior of some of the monks also clearly showed the shadow of the ancient style of the monks before.

Thinking of this, a bold idea arose in Yin You's heart.

Chapter 148 Sword Light Beheads the Immortal

Just as Yin You was thinking.

Suddenly, a blood-red sword light flew out from the crack in the void and slashed at the young man before he could react with lightning speed.

The blood-red sword light passed by Yin You, causing his beating heart to stop for a moment.

Wow…

The sword light pierced through the body, and the young man who looked like an immortal was instantly cut into two halves, turning into flying blood mist in the sky.

After seeing with their own eyes the young man being violently killed by a blood-red sword light right under their noses, the surrounding monks were all shocked and terrified. They subconsciously urged their spiritual energy and fled in all directions in an instant, not daring to stay where they were at all.

After killing the young man, the blood-red color on the sword became even richer and brighter, as if it had just had a full meal.

The blood-red sword light did not stop, it circled and turned the tip of the sword to fly towards the monk closest to it.

She was a middle-aged female cultivator. The direction she subconsciously chose to escape happened to be closest to the blood-red sword light. After flying for a while, the female cultivator realized that her aura had been locked.

She stretched out her spiritual sense and looked back. After seeing the blood-red sword light chasing after her, a chill filled her whole body, and she instantly burst out with even more powerful spiritual energy!

boom! ! !

Even though the female monk desperately squeezed her own life essence to increase her flying speed, the distance between her and the blood-red sword light was still getting shorter and shorter.

One thousand meters.

Nine hundred meters.

Eight hundred meters.

……

One hundred meters.

The female monk had a pale face and a look of despair. Death was hanging over her head and could fall at any time.

The sword light was approaching, and just when the female monk was about to repeat the fate of the young man and be cut in half by the blood-red sword light, she suddenly raised her head and shouted.

"Oh!"

A boy monk wearing a red bellyband suddenly appeared behind the female monk and helped her block the fatal blow of the blood-red sword.

next moment.

Strands of pale green spiritual energy rose from the boy monk's body and wrapped around the blood-red sword light that was still in a stalemate with him.

The blood-red sword light seemed to sense something was wrong, and the sword body trembled slightly, ready to escape immediately.

But before it could escape, the boy monk had already used some mysterious method to connect him with the energy of the blood-red sword light.

For this reason, the blood-red sword light could not leave the vicinity of the boy monk at all, and was directly tightly entangled, squeezed, and bound by the pale green spiritual energy rising from his body.

finally--

There was a bang.

The pale green spiritual energy suddenly exploded, with a power no less than the peak attack of a great power in the tenth realm. The blood-red sword light trapped in it instantly exploded, breaking into countless fragments that scattered in the air, and finally turned into points of light and dissipated.

Although he destroyed the blood-red sword light with one strike, the price the boy monk paid was not small. Because he was connected to the blood-red sword light's energy, and because they were too close to each other just now, he also suffered some damage from the spiritual energy explosion. His clothes were tattered and his breath was weak.

After using her divine sense to take in everything that was happening behind her, the female monk running in front immediately turned around and flew towards the boy monk.

Her face was filled with gratitude, and she kept saying something to the boy monk, gesticulating from time to time, appearing extremely excited.

Facing the female monk's words, the boy monk seemed extremely calm. He simply waved his hand, and the spiritual energy around him surged out, enveloping him.

By the time the spiritual energy dissipated again, the boy monk had changed into a clean and tidy red bellyband, and his aura had returned to its peak.

After the boy monk recovered, he flew back to the void crack, followed by the female monk whose life he saved.

At this time, other cultivators also saw the blood-red sword light being extinguished. They all turned around and flew towards the crack in the void.

"Master Yuan Heng, thank you for saving my life."

At this time, Yin You was surprised because he could actually hear what the female monk said.

"It's just a small effort, no need to say more."

The boy monk who was called "Master Yuan Heng" by the female monk shook his head slightly and looked at the monks surrounding him with a calm expression:

"Whoever has the jade slips that can communicate with the upper world, please report to them what is happening here."

One of the cultivators said, "Master Yuan Heng, I just tried to use the sound transmission jade slip to communicate with the upper realm, but I couldn't get through."

Other voices rang out:

"Yes, I have tried it just now."

"Same goes for my subordinates."

"Why have our sound transmission jade slips lost their ability to communicate with the upper realm?"

Obviously, among so many monks, no one can communicate with the upper realm.

Yuan Heng was silent after hearing this. He looked at the void crack not far in front of him and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is all this caused by this void crack in front of me?"

"Senior? Senior?"

Yin You walked up to Yuan Heng and waved at him vigorously, trying to attract his attention.

But Yuan Heng didn't react at all and was still thinking about his own things.

Seeing this, Yin You was a little disappointed. He thought that after he could hear their voices, he would be able to communicate with them. It seemed that he was overthinking.

Fortunately, these monks were in a state of great emotional turmoil because of what had just happened. Even with the presence of the boy monk, they still communicated in low voices, allowing Yin You to obtain a lot of key information.

"We have been guarding this world's ascension path for thousands of years, and have never seen such a situation. What happened today?"

"How could such a terrifying void crack appear for no reason under the conditions of this world? This is not a simple matter."

"This void crack has appeared anywhere else, but on the path to ascension. The probability of this happening is definitely one in a billion, and it is rare to see it in countless years. I guess someone is definitely secretly fanning the flames. Please be careful."

"Alas, poor fellow Daoist Tang Wu, he was split in half by the blood-red sword light that flew out from the crack in the void..."

"I remember that Fellow Daoist Tang Wu still needs to guard for 372 years before his mission is complete. Can he return to the upper realm?"

"It's a pity..."

These monks felt the same way and were all in a very low mood for a while.

The boy monk Yuan Heng frowned slightly after hearing these words. When the others' words became more and more excessive, he could not help but snorted coldly:

"Silence!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present fell silent instantly.

Yuan Heng moved his eyes away from the crack in the void and looked at each of them one by one.

Although he had the appearance of a young boy, his expression was solemn and majestic, with an unfathomable gleam in his eyes, which made several monks dare not look directly at him. They subconsciously lowered their heads to avoid his sight.

After looking around, Yuan Heng spoke slowly: "Don't panic, the Ascension Road and the Ascension Palace in the upper realm are closely connected. If something strange happens here, the upper realm may have received the news and will send troops to support us from time to time."

"We just need to guard this place, take good care of the void cracks, and then wait for the arrival of reinforcements from the upper realm."

Chapter 149: Horrible Existence

After hearing the news, everyone felt relieved.

What they didn't realize was that after he said this, a barely perceptible dark light flashed across Yuan Heng's eyes:

"All of this is based on the assumption that the connection between the Ascension Road and the Ascension Palace still exists. If the Ascension Road loses its connection with the Ascension Palace like the sound transmission jade slip, then it will be difficult..."

Yuan Heng did not say these words out loud, but just murmured them in his heart. Although he had no solid evidence, he had a premonition that they might not be able to wait for the support from the Ascension Palace.

Looking at the void crack in front of him that was emitting a terrifying aura, Yuan Heng was helpless and could only hope that it would calm down temporarily.

But the reality is often not what we want. The more you fear and worry about something happening, the more likely it is to happen.

The few monks who had just calmed down after hearing Yuan Heng's words soon became restless, simply because they discovered something horrifying.

"This...what is this?"

"I am not wrong, right?"
