"The number of demonic beasts around Cyan Rose City is much higher than that around Guan Shan City. "There are still powerful high-rank Demon Beasts staying in Qingluo City. We didn't dare to enter at all, hiding in the vicinity of Qingluo City for two days before we set off for Guan Shan City." Manager Kong looked at Wei Suo and said, "In these two days, there have been fewer and fewer beasts. However, there are still beasts coming from the sky. Along the way, there might be more."

"Shopkeeper Kong, you were able to escape all the way here. Aside from this formation, is there any other special magical equipment?" Wei Suo continued to ask, "Previously, I heard Shopkeeper Kong say that he escaped together with another Shopkeeper Qian. Where is Shopkeeper Qian now?"

"Other than Shopkeeper Qian, there was another disciple of Shopkeeper Qian named Zhang Nian who escaped with us." Manager Kong looked at the pa.s.sage behind them and explained, "The two of them are currently searching through other areas in the city. See if you can find some pills or other magical equipment that can help you replenish your true energy. "

After a pause, Keeper Kong added, "To tell you the truth, we have picked up a few treasures in the vicinity of Qingluo City. However, the pills that can be used to quickly replenish true energy have almost been consumed. The shopkeeper and his disciple are mainly looking for some of the old shops. They wanted to see if they could get some of the medicinal pills and the materials I needed to set up the formation in the ruins of the shop. As for the special magic item you mentioned, it is that Keeper Kong has a gourd of Golden Spirit Bees, and these Golden Spirit Bees can fly for thousands of miles. Furthermore, you can sense that if any powerful demonic beast comes, these Golden Spirit Bees will have a unique method of transmitting information to you, which can be quickly felt by Keeper Qian. "

"Golden Spirit Bee?" Wei Suo's eyes flashed, "I heard that this type of Spirit Bee has a limited lifespan, or it doesn't need to be used. If used, it would fly out, and within ten days, it would run out of energy and die." Moreover, this kind of Golden Spirit Bee is extremely unique or expensive. One flight requires the entire group to fly away. "

"That's right." A wry smile appeared on Shopkeeper Kong's face. "Qian's Golden Spiritual Bees can only last for a few more days, and they should all be dead."

"Right." Speaking up to here, Shopkeeper Kong seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Wei Suo and asked, "Fellow Daoist Ji, when did you arrive at Guan Shan City? Didn't you say that there were several great cultivators protecting the Northern Spirit City's cultivators and escaping from the ancient transportation formation? How did you fail to escape from the ancient transportation formation? How did you manage to escape all the way from Northern Spiritual City to Guan Shan City? "

"An extremely terrifying unknown demon beast with the ability to reach level 9 appeared, destroying the ancient transportation formation. At that time, there were still four to five thousand cultivators who could not escape from the magical formation. I was already heavily injured, so I had no choice but to use one of my beast controlling techniques to control a Purple Flame Beetle. Afterwards, I dug a b.l.o.o.d.y hole in its back and drilled inside. Not long after, I fell into a coma. When I woke up, I was already in this city. " Wei Suo looked at Manager Kong and Liu Cheng and bitterly smiled, "The Purple Flame Beetle that I was in had already been dead for two to three days. Judging from this time, I should have arrived at the Guan Shan City two to three days ago, but it was more than half a day ago that I woke up. Furthermore, I have been among the Purple Flame Beetles for less than an hour. "

"Fellow Daoist Ji is seriously injured, but he actually managed to escape in such a manner. He really is blessed with great fortune." Upon hearing that Wei Suo had used a Purple Flame Beetle to escape, both Manager Kong and Liu Cheng were shocked.

"That's right. "Since it took less than an hour for Fellow to produce the Purple Flame Beetle, then aren't you the one who collected the beast cores and refining materials in this city?" But shortly after, Manager Kong seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes flashed with an extremely bewildered expression.

"Of course not. That is to say, these demonic cores and refining materials weren't collected by you, Shopkeeper Kong?" Wei Suo was also stunned. "When I saw you two appear just now, I thought you had collected these things."

"We only arrived at the city around noon today. According to this time, we arrived at Guan Shan City later than you did when you woke up. After that, we first found this place, built this formation, and created this place for shelter. It was also because I went out to search just now that I happened to hear Fellow Daoist's voice and saved you. " Manager Kong and Liu Cheng looked at each other. "The beast cores and the materials suitable for refining these demon beasts were not collected by us."

"In other words, other cultivators have already pa.s.sed by." Wei Suo frowned. "I wonder if you guys have any understanding of those strange trees outside?"

"We've never heard of these kinds of trees before." Shopkeeper Kong shook his head and said, "It's very likely the seed of some demonic beast that brought along these trees. After it drops down, it will grow." These trees looked very strange, and they had grown quite a bit along the way. Along the way, we saw the corpses of a few cultivators under the trees that bore red fruits, so we didn't dare to approach these trees. "

"Does that Manager Kong know anything about the news from the outside world?" Wei Suo couldn't help but ask again.

"We have no idea as to what is happening to this group of beasts." To be honest, Fellow Ji is the only person we've seen alive in the past ten days. Along the way, only the remains of cultivators could be seen. Even in Guan Shan city, they had become trash. We can't help but have the illusion that the interior of the sky has been completely occupied by demonic beasts and is no different from the Wasteland outside. " Manager Kong sighed.

Wei Suo was instantly speechless.

Currently, they still knew very little about the outside world. As to what city the beast tide had spread to, they had no idea. However, they were certain that there was a rift in the sky that had not been sealed off. However, this did not mean much to Wei Suo, because even if it was sealed off, the sky might still continuously crack.

What he wanted to know was which city would be safer.

"Pah!"

Just at this moment, a loud and clear explosion suddenly came from outside. It was clearly the sound of some arcane skill attacking an explosion.

This voice caused the expressions of Wei Suo, Manager Kong, and Liu Cheng to simultaneously change.

Moments later, the rubble was moved away and a breeze poured in. Afterward, a purplish-red robed elder with a ruddy complexion came rus.h.i.+ng into the room along with an ordinary-looking cyan robed youth.

"This …?" The moment they saw Wei Suo lying on the ground, the old man and the somewhat reserved young man in green both had looks of surprise in their eyes.

"Old Qian, what was that commotion just now?" Shopkeeper Kong immediately asked with some nervousness.

"Yes, we just happened to encounter two wolf-headed bats. We've taken care of them." This old man in a purplish-red robe and this young man in cyan clothes were clearly the shopkeeper and his disciple, Zhang Nian. After quickly answering that question, Shopkeeper Qian immediately looked at Wei Suo and asked, "Who is this Fellow Daoist?"

"This fellow cultivator is Ji Li. He is a cultivator who escaped from Northern Spiritual City. His injuries are very severe. We just happened to b.u.mp into him while we were out searching." Shopkeeper Kong said to Shopkeeper Qian.

"I never imagined that I would run into another survivor here. Fellow Daoist Ji, it really was a pleasure to meet you." Manager Qian had an excited expression. It was just as Shopkeeper Kong had said. For the past ten days, not a single living cultivator had appeared. They had even felt as if the entire sky had been occupied by demonic beasts. Now that they saw an unfamiliar survivor, they were extremely excited.

"I never thought that fellow Ji would actually use a Purple Flame Beetle to escape … Fellow Daoist Ji is truly blessed with great fortune … "

Following that, Shopkeeper Qian, Wei Suo, and Shopkeeper Kong chatted for a bit. When they heard that Wei Suo had escaped here while hiding within the Purple Flame Beetle, Shopkeeper Qian and the others sighed again.

"Old Qian, did you guys find anything when you went out?" After saying a few more words, Shopkeeper Kong returned to the main topic at hand. He looked at Shopkeeper Qian and asked.

"Nope." "There must have been cultivators that went through this city before and searched the city. Not only are there some demonic beasts' cores and useful refining materials, but there are also traces of shops and market ruins being rummaged through. There's nothing useful left inside." And on the east side of the city, there seems to be a beast of high rank staying there. "

"Then what should we do?" Upon hearing this, Manager Kong's face instantly paled and he became lost in thought.

"Shopkeeper Kong, Shopkeeper Qian, can't this kind of formation last long?" Seeing Manager Kong's expression, Wei Suo's eyebrows jumped as he asked. His real cultivation had already reached the fourth level of the Aurous Core Stage. As long as he had four to five days, he would not need to fear most of the demon beasts. Thus, in this unfavorable situation, his state of mind was much calmer than that of Keeper Kong and the others.

"The main purpose of this formation is to consume metal and Qi Stones. It can only be laid for twenty hours at a time. The Golden Qi Stones and other materials in my possession can only be laid out once. " Manager Kong took a deep breath and explained after calming himself down.

"It seems that I can only continue on my Golden Spirit Bees for a few more days. "Otherwise, given the current situation, even if the beast wave was suppressed, it would be impossible for the cultivators to regain control of this area within a few days." Although Shopkeeper Qian's expression was ugly, his emotions did not fluctuate. It was obvious that he had already thought of a plan on the way back after finding something useful.

"This is the only way. Otherwise, there would be large numbers of demon beasts from the sky that would cross over from time to time. If we continue to stay here, it would be a disaster. "We can only go to the next city and see if there are any more Cultivators." Manager Kong said helplessly.

"How about we hurry to True Nether City? Netherworld City and Nether Palace are only two cities away, so they might be able to defend Nether City. After Shopkeeper Qian said this, he looked at Wei Suo who hadn't said much: "I wonder if Fellow Ji has any objections? Considering Fellow Daoist Ji's current injuries, is it possible for you to continue on your way?

"The location of True Nether City?" Wei Suo's eyes immediately flickered. The location of True Nether City was in the southeast direction of the city they were currently in, Guan Mountain City. They continued to head deeper into the northern part of the Profound Sky Continent, and Wei Suo could feel that his Heart Devouring Bug seemed to be in that direction as well. I also think that it would be feasible to go to True Nether City. There is nothing wrong with my injuries, it's just that I am unable to cast any spells.

"There's no time to lose, let's set off immediately. From here to True Nether City, it'll take us at least two to three days to travel. We have to reach there before my Golden Spirit Bees die, otherwise we won't be able to guarantee our safety. " Manager Qian took a deep breath. If the scene in True Nether City was similar to the one in Guan Shan City, then he really didn't know what to do.
