Yang Feilong's soul cultivation had already reached the ninth stage of the mortal tier. He should have been able to see through the formation his master had set up, but the reality proved that Yang Feilong's cultivation was still insufficient, or perhaps his master's formation was too profound. Baiyun Daoist Temple remained hidden in the clouds and mist, and despite his efforts, he couldn't find any trace of the temple!
However, he could faintly sense the fluctuations of the formation, but his own cultivation was not enough to detect it clearly.
If he couldn't sense it, there was no way others could.
"Master!" Yang Feilong's voice echoed.
But it was empty and ethereal, with no response.
"I'm sorry, my master should not be here," Yang Feilong said with a sigh. "Let's go to the miniature world!"
He had initially thought his master would have returned after an outing, but to his surprise, she wasn't at the Daoist temple.
Perhaps she was busy with something, or perhaps she hadn't returned from her previous trip at all.
"Then let's go to the miniature world first," Ouyang Huihuang nodded.
Since the person wasn't here, they couldn't just wait. A day or two would be fine, but what if she didn't return for ten or eight days?
No one could say for sure!
Ouyang Yixue's heart had been in suspense. After all, she was going to meet Yang Feilong's master. She had been pondering all the way how to present herself to gain her master's favor and avoid disappointment. But now that she had arrived, her man's master was nowhere to be found. This eased her suspenseful heart a little, but along with the relief, there was also some regret.
She had been well-prepared.
Then, the group of ten people traversed mountains and crossed ridges, following Ouyang Huihuang's guidance towards their destination.
In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed.
The group stopped in a dense jungle within a mountain ravine.
"The entrance is right here. Huh? What's going on? Why isn't the demon passage entrance here?" Ouyang Huihuang looked at the empty space where the demon passage entrance should have been, completely bewildered.
"No," Yang Feilong shook his head.
"What is it?" Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.
"Master, Master!" Just then, Yang Feilong called out loudly.
Seeing Yang Feilong's actions, everyone was confused. Why was he suddenly calling for his master?
The next moment, a woman with a white veil covering her face appeared before their eyes.
"Divine Doctor Bai!" Ouyang Huihuang exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the veiled woman.
"Divine Doctor Bai!" everyone bowed respectfully.
Ouyang Yixue was somewhat stunned. Was this Feilong's master? She had been mentally prepared before, but hadn't met her. Now, without any preparation, the person suddenly appeared?
This sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard!
Her heart pounded wildly. For a moment, she wanted to greet her, but looking at the figure dressed in snow-white robes, with a graceful figure and unparalleled aura despite the veil, she felt an inexplicable sense of inferiority!
Ouyang Tian looked at Divine Doctor Bai with admiration, but quickly suppressed the thought. He feared being beaten to death by Yang Feilong!
This guy would show him no mercy. He hadn't forgotten the black and blue consequences of their last encounter.
"Master," Yang Feilong said to his master with a smile.
"Why have you come here?" Divine Doctor Bai's voice carried a hint of confusion.
Hearing this, Yang Feilong briefly explained the situation.
"So that's how it is," Divine Doctor Bai said, relieved.
She had wondered why there were traces of cultivation inside.
"Master, the formation at the exit, you set it up, right?" Yang Feilong asked. The demon passage was invisible, clearly concealed by a profound formation. As soon as he sensed this, he had a thought that his master might have seen demons appearing, traced their origin, found this demon passage, and then set up this mysterious formation.
"It was me!" Bai Yidie nodded. "A few days ago, I saw some demons and followed them to investigate. I discovered that those demons had emerged from this demon passage! I even went in to take a look. There were many demons inside, and I would come here to clear them out occasionally."
No one doubted this.
Because a year ago, they had been pursued relentlessly by Ouyang Tian and others.
However, they had kept the situation a secret and hadn't told anyone, focusing instead on recovering from their injuries and breaking through to the Hegemon Martial realm. As it turned out, Ouyang Tian had succeeded. Their Ouyang family had contacted Divine Doctor Bai, but by the time they managed to contact her, several other related families had already been annihilated.
As a result, Ouyang Tian was the only one who knew about that incident.
Bai Yidie knew because demons had been continuously escaping from the miniature world through that demon passage. She had investigated their origins herself, without anyone informing her.
"Master, what is the situation inside now?" Yang Feilong asked curiously.
"I primarily cleared out over a dozen demons at the Innate level and some at the Half-Innate level. The remaining demons, I intended to leave for you to temper yourself with slowly," Bai Yidie said.
Yang Feilong was fine hearing this, as he had long suspected that his master might be at the Foundation Establishment stage, or even higher. The others, however, were dumbfounded.
Demons at the Innate level were equivalent to human Innate realm or Foundation Establishment realm cultivators!
Divine Doctor Bai could even deal with beings of that level?
Ouyang Tian pondered. The strongest demon they had faced then was at the Hegemon Martial realm. But he quickly dismissed his doubts. More than a year had passed since they last entered, and the demons coming through the demon passage from the demon realm were increasing. Perhaps there were powerful demons now.
For instance, Innate realm demons?
Moreover, based on his perception earlier, Divine Doctor Bai's cultivation should have already been very strong. This only confirmed it. Her ability to slaughter over a dozen Innate realm demons and some Half-Innate realm demons in the miniature world was truly extraordinary!
This also indicated that she was at least at the Innate realm? Or perhaps a top-tier Innate realm cultivator?
They dared not imagine anything higher!
"Master, even if you killed the Half-Innate and Innate realm demonic beasts, I might not be able to handle the remaining ones!" Yang Feilong said with a wry smile.
"I didn't expect you to kill them all at once. Just kill them slowly! Inside the miniature world, I've also set up a spirit gathering formation. You can cultivate inside, and if you encounter danger, you can also hide within it. Those demons haven't reached the Half-Innate or Innate levels, and their intellect is relatively low," Bai Yidie stated.
Then, she looked at the people from the Ouyang family and mused slightly, "Since you discovered this beforehand, you can also cultivate inside. However, do not spread the word. Also, the number of people cultivating inside each time should not be too large. Otherwise, the formation cannot protect so many people. If too many go in, they will only perish!"
"Thank you, Divine Doctor Bai. We understand!" Ouyang Huihuang responded respectfully. Considering that Yang Feilong was his great-grandson-in-law, in terms of seniority, Bai Yidie seemed much younger than him. However, in the cultivation world, things were not calculated that way. Divine Doctor Bai, with her medical skills and strength, completely surpassed him, so he naturally wouldn't try to leverage his relationship with Yang Feilong. Doing so would only displease her.
He knew very well that despite being a woman, Divine Doctor Bai was not a soft-hearted person. When she saved people, especially cultivators, she usually demanded a reward. If someone tried to force her, she wouldn't hesitate to use decisive measures!
Ouyang Huihuang had initially planned for his family members to enter in batches. Now, it seemed he would have to choose them carefully.
After all, while it was a blessed land for cultivation, there were still endless demons coming through the demon passage.
It was easy to seal and isolate the demon passage leading to the surface, but the passage connecting the miniature world to the demon realm was difficult to seal. This was because the spatial layers of the passage between the miniature world and the demon realm were quite high. Without exquisite cultivation and profound formation techniques, it was impossible to seal it.
"Let's go, let's enter the formation together!" As Divine Doctor Bai spoke, she waved her sleeve, and a formation appeared before everyone's eyes.
Following Divine Doctor Bai, the group stepped into the formation. Then, Divine Doctor Bai lightly tapped, and several beams of light flew towards different locations, activating the formation.
In the next moment, they found themselves in a world where spiritual energy and demonic energy were extremely dense.
