Guo Shuman found one of the rooms in this courtyard and brought Ye Xiao in.
As soon as they entered, Ye Xiao realized that more than ten human martial artists were standing in the room. Their clothes were a bit messy. Many of them had uneven auras and were in an extremely sorry state.
"What exactly is going on outside? I just heard quite a few wraiths roaring."
"We must not provoke any powerful existences. Otherwise, we will not be able to survive at all."
When the group of disciples saw Guo Shuman, they immediately started to complain.
Guo Shuman pointed at Ye Xiao and said, "It was this kid who did this. I don't know how he came in."
Ye Xiao frowned when he heard that. If Guo Shuman had not stopped him, Ye Xiao would have killed the female Evil Spirit by now.
"Kid, who are you?" Guo Shuman looked at Ye Xiao and asked.
Ye Xiao did not want any trouble so he endured the arrogant attitude of Guo Shuman and replied, "You can call me Ye Xiao."
"Ye Xiao... Why are you here? Are you here to die?"
"That's right. Not only do we have to deal with the Evil Spirits outside, but we now have to ensure the safety of this kid also."
After Ye Xiao told them his name, all of them started berating him.
They had been trapped here all this time, they had already endured much hardship and trouble. Now, there was one more who came here to die, how can they not be angry.
Guo Shuman still did not give up and continued to ask, "Are you also one of the candidates who have participated in the Competition of Myriad Worlds?"
Ye Xiao raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He said, "All of you are also the participants of Competition of the Myriad Worlds?"
"We are!" Guo Shuman nodded her head. She then took a deep breath and said, "After coming to this demon world, we came across many participants. To stay safe, all of us formed a group and started moving together. A few months ago, we came to this town. This town had no one here. We searched for a long but didn't find any sign of life. So, all of us decided to stay in this town until the end of the First Round of Competition."
Saying till here, she took a deep breath and said, "Who would have thought that this town itself was a trap to capture demons and use their demon soul and energy for something. We came to know about the trap when a group of demons came to this town to investigate something. At that time, we hide and observed those groups of demons carefully. We saw how an extremely evil light descended from the sky and killed all those demons before absorbing the demon soul and energy."
"We are humans and we have no demonic aura on us. Maybe, this was the reason that we were able to keep our lives. When we came to know about the trap, we immediately tried to live but no matter how hard we tried, we failed to leave this town. Days went by and no trace of hope was left to leave this town. The only hope now was to wait for the end of the First Round so that we can be teleported back to the Great Martial City."
"But one day, many Evil Spirits suddenly appeared and killed some of the people of our group. We could not help but run for our lives. By chance, we stumbled upon this courtyard. I don't know what is special about this courtyard, but no Evil Spirits dared to come near it. So, we hide inside this courtyard and survive until now."
When Guo Shuman told Ye Xiao all of this, her tone once again turned cold as she looked at Ye Xiao with an annoyed look on her face and said, "And now, you came here to increase our trouble."
Ye Xiao didn't say anything. He fell in deep thought and once again spread his Divine Sense. Then, he noticed two things, one was a great formation that had enveloped this entire courtyard.
Actually, this courtyard was the eye of the formation that had covered the entire town and was stopping people from leaving.
And the second thing he noticed was a young girl sitting in the corner of the room.
The young girl had lowered her head and did not speak the whole time. She sat in a corner and no one paid attention to her.
However, there was something about this girl that had attracted Ye Xiao's attention. Ye Xiao kept observing her with his Divine Sense and in the next moment, his eyes opened wide. It was because he came to know about the thing about this young girl that had attracted his attention. This young girl actually possessed the Yin Yang Heavenly Eye.
There was information about the Yin Yang Heavenly Eye in the memories of three Ancient Gods. This was also the first time Ye Xiao came across something, he could find the information about which in all three Ancient Gods' memories.
Yin Yang Heavenly Eyes can be said to see through the secrets of the heavens. Nothing can hide from the sight of Yin Yang Heavenly Eyes. No illusion can work in front of Yin Yang Heavenly Eyes. Even the tiniest bit of flaw in a perfect formation could be seen by the Yin Yang Heavenly Eyes in an instant.
There was a saying about the Yin Yang Heavenly Eye recorded in the ancient records from the ancient era. That saying was "One Eye Can Kill A God!"
Yin Yang Heavenly Eyes was an Ancient Eye. According to the information in the memories of three Ancient Gods, only the members of a particular Ancient Family could possess this eye. That Ancient Family called themselves Heavenly Eye Family. Other than the members of the Heavenly Eye Family, it was impossible for anyone to possess the Yin Yang Heavenly Eye.
There were many more legends about the Yin Yang Heavenly Eye but all of them were still locked. Ye Xiao needed to become a Divine Being to unlock those memories.
All Ye Xiao found out was the things defined above and the thing that Yin Yang Heavenly Eye had a total of five stages. It also meant that a person who possesses the Yin Yang Heavenly Eyes can awaken some kind of incredible ability a total of five times.
There was a cultivation technique recorded in the memories of the three Ancient Gods to cultivate the Yin Yang Heavenly Eyes. This cultivation technique can only be cultivated by the person who possessed the Yin Yang Heavenly Eyes. Others can not cultivate it. But... the cultivation technique that appeared in Ye Xiao's mind was an incomplete technique. With this incomplete technique, a person could only cultivate to the two stages of Yin Yang Heavenly Eye.
When Ye Xiao saw the young girl, he saw that one of her eyes flashed with black and the other one with white before returning to normal. It also meant that this girl had not cultivated the cultivation technique to awaken her Yin Yang Heavenly Eyes. But even so, she could injure Evil Spirits that were roaming outside with her eyes immediately.
Ye Xiao guessed that she must have become extremely tired that she didn't use her eyes to kill the Evil Spirits.
On one hand, Ye Xiao's attention was attracted by the young girl with Yin Yang Heavenly Eyes, on the other side, Guo Shuman no longer wanted to talk to Ye Xiao. It seemed that saying another word to him was a waste of time.
"Just stay with that girl and protect yourself. We don't have time to take care of you." Guo Shuman pointed at the girl with Yin Yang Heavenly Eyes and said coldly.
Ye Xiao didn't care about Guo Shuman's indifference. At this moment, he started to look around, looking for a loophole in the formation.
It didn't take long for Ye Xiao to find the loopholes in the formation that was laid inside the courtyard. Ye Xiao wanted to break this formation so that everyone could escape from this place.
Just as Ye Xiao was about to break the formation, he suddenly saw the young girl's body trembling slightly, as if she was at the end of her rope.
Ye Xiao frowned and looked at the young girl carefully. With one glance, he could tell that the young girl was also trying to break the formation. It was clear that with the help of Yin Yang Heavenly Eyes, she found out that this courtyard was the eye of the formation, and breaking the formation could let all of them escape from this little town.
However, it was very obvious that although she could see the flaws in the formations, it was very difficult for her to completely break the formation.
Now, it seemed like she wanted to forcefully break it, but she suffered a backlash.
