Ah Chun understood that Mei Liling was concerned about her mental state. But Ah Chun had done a lot worse during her samsara. She had reaped thousands of lives whether they were innocent or guilty it did not matter. In her quest for revenge at that time, anyone who got in her way was an enemy. That included towns full of people who would hide anyone she sought after that was connected to the death of her loved ones. Generations of families were exterminated by her hand in her samsara. So killing a few disciples was nothing to her and did not affect her in any way.
Ah Chun looked over at Shi Quan who was looking at the destruction and asked: "Shall we continue or are you going to admit defeat?"
Shi Quan frowned. ' This damn little freak still wanted to continue fighting? She just killed a few tens of disciples! '
"Are we still fighting or not?" Ah Chun was starting to get impatient. For some reason, she had a bad feeling. She did not know why but she felt like something bad was about to happen. So she wanted to either finish this battle quickly or call it off.
But before Shi Quan could give an answer an eerie black fog spread throughout the Devil's Gorge. It came in so quick no one had time to react. Screams could be heard coming from the spectating disciples. Ah Chun's eyes widened when she saw the black fog. She knew exactly what this was. It was the Death Qi from a devil cultivator!
Death Qi was very sinister it could erode Spiritual Qi whether it was in the air or within a cultivator's body. As soon as it invaded a place with Spiritual Qi only death awaited those unlucky to get caught in it if their cultivation was to low. Those disciples of lower cultivation felt their bodies become devoid of Spiritual Qi as the Death Qi invaded into their bodies and rampaged through their meridians. Once there was no spiritual Qi left to feed on, the Death Qi quickly started to erode the disciples from the inside out. Causing these disciples to scream out in horror and pain as their bones and organs were slowly being eaten away by the Death Qi.
Thousands of Disciples died agonizing deaths. For those from the Qi Sea and above they were able to defend their body from the invading Death Qi but they could only hold out as long as their Spiritual Power would let them. As soon as they exhausted all their spiritual power only death waited for them.
Ah Chun suddenly remembered Meimei and quickly turned towards where Meimei was. Meimei had yet to make it to Qi Sea realm so she was in danger if someone did not help her! When Ah Chun gaze fell onto Meimie she let out a sigh of relief. Fang had used his Spiritual Power to keep the Death Qi from entering Meimei's body.
In her samsara, Ah Chun had run into many devil cultivators in the Immortal Realm. They were not something that should be found in the Mortal Realm. This fact confused Ah Chun. She could not understand why a devil cultivator would come to the Mortal Realm. Even if they used thousands of people from the Mortal Realm as a sacrifice it would still not be as good as using one hundred people from the Immortal Realm. Not to mention it was almost impossible for them to get to the Mortal Realm.
Ah Chun's body flickered and she arrived at Mei Liling's side. "Mother why is there a devil cultivator in the Mortal Realm!?"
Mei Liling looked at her daughter concerned eyes and smiled bitterly. She did not know the answer to this question. In the Immortal Realm, there were two sides. One side was the immortals and the other side were the devil cultivators. The only gate to the Mortal Realm was heavily guarded by immortals and was located on the immortal's side. So for a devil cultivator to be here now, there were only two reasons, one was that something happened in the Immortal Realm which led to the devil cultivators having access to the Mortal Realm or the second answer was that this devil cultivator was always in the Mortal Realm from the start! The answer was most likely the second reason! Someone had successfully cultivated Devil Qi in the Mortal Realm!
"I do not know Chun'er. We should gather with the others. This amount of Death Qi is not something a low-level devil cultivator can produce. This person is on the same level as me!" Mei Liling was a bit worried. Devil cultivators were very hard to fight against. If pitted one versus one the devil cultivator would most likely be the one to win. The only reason why devil cultivators have not taken over the Immortal Realm was that there were more immortal cultivators than devil cultivators!
