When Han Yi found out, it was already the seventh day of the demonic cave’s eruption.

Xuandan Peak, inner palace.

Six figures took their seats one after another.

“It’s strange. The demonic cave wouldn’t choose to be born within Shu Du. Heavenly Demons usually choose more remote places, but at least they descend upon sects with Gold Core cultivators. In this way, they have enough time to occupy the bodies of Gold Core cultivators and transform them into the True Bodies of Heavenly Demon, thereby gaining the power to set up the Heavenly Demon Array.”

“Shu Du is the territory of the National Guardian Duke. There are countless Monarch cultivators, and for cultivators, the arrival of a Heavenly Demon and its aura cannot be easily concealed. As soon as an otherworldly passage is discovered, they would definitely not stand idly by. So how could it develop to the point of forming a demonic cave?”

The one with this doubt was Si Hongxue.

More than forty years ago, a demonic cave appeared between the Tai Xu Sect and Yujing Mountain, affecting the entire Daqian, even the Xuandan Sect, which was only a Golden Core Sect back then, had to send out thousands of people to participate in the battle to exterminate the Heavenly Demons.

Back then, Si Hongxue and several Supreme Elders followed Yuan Shun to Qianzhou to participate in the battle against the demonic cave, having a deep understanding of it.

Shen Ping’s face was solemn, his eyes revealing a hidden fear.

“I also have this doubt. This situation is extraordinary.”

Back then, Shen Ping, as a Foundation Building Middle Level cultivator, also participated in the battle against the demonic cave. He was well aware of how cruel the demonic cave was for cultivators, and how terrifying those Heavenly Demons were once they occupied a cultivator’s body and manifested their True Body of Heavenly Demon.

Zhuge Wu You sighed in his heart. Although he had never participated in the battle against the demonic cave, he knew the dangers involved. He calmed his mind and slowly said.

“Regardless.”

“Since the demonic cave has manifested, Daqian has already requested various sects to exterminate the Heavenly Demons, and our Xuandan Sect is naturally among them.”

“At present, you all know the situation of the sect. The Sect Master has disappeared, Senior Brother Qin has perished, and the highest realm cultivator is me.”

“So I’ve decided that I’ll lead the team this time. Shen Ping and Si Yuan will follow me. We’ll select thirty Foundation Builders, four hundred Inner Disciples, and a thousand Outer Disciples to form the Xuandan Sect team.”

“The departure date will be set for seven days later.”

With these words from Zhuge Wu You, everyone fell silent.

Theoretically, Zhuge Wu You currently has the highest realm among all cultivators in the Xuandan Sect, with the unique Late-stage Golden Core, followed by Si Hongxue, Huo Ming, and Han Yi’s Middle Golden Core Stage.

However.

Even though Zhuge Wu You had already resolved the effects of the Soul-locking Powder and recovered his strength, he was still just an ordinary Late-stage Golden Core cultivator without any outstanding abilities, far from being comparable to cultivators on the Master List.

Nevertheless.

In this expedition, all the sects and cultivators of Daqian will gather together. If the Xuandan Sect doesn’t have even one Late-stage Golden Core cultivator, it will definitely arouse suspicion from others.

At this critical moment, he needs to step forward even more so.

Meanwhile, Han Yi, sitting beside Zhuge Wu You, had his eyes downcast, thinking more deeply.

Qin Wuxian discovered some secret related to the Fragrance Sect, and the sect’s Protector Star River Monarch appeared in Shu Du. Shi Heng’s Soul Shadow revealed that the Fragrance Sect was planning something in Shu Du, and now the appearance of the demonic cave in Shu Du has occurred.

Han Yi couldn’t help but think deeply about the logic and causality behind these events.

Did the Fragrance Sect lure the demonic cave?

That doesn’t make sense.

Throughout the entire Yu Heng World, or even the entire Cultivation World, it is well known that Heavenly Demons are nothing but endless greedy beings to cultivators, with no benefits whatsoever. No cultivator has gone insane enough to collaborate with Heavenly Demons, and it is impossible for any cultivators to open the Boundary Sky Passage to let Heavenly Demons descend.

If indeed so, the Heavenly Demons that appeared would have immediately occupied this cultivator’s body, manifested the True Body of Heavenly Demon, and met an assured death.

Han Yi had not completely ruled out this possibility. The Fragrance Sect itself was a heretical cult, and perhaps they had some method to cooperate with Heavenly Demons and cause trouble in Shu Du.

However.

For now, even if he has some guesses, he can’t do anything about it. Even if he has advanced to the Middle Golden Core Stage, he is nothing but a slightly larger ant to the Fragrance Sect and the demonic cave.

After thinking for a moment, Han Yi still said.

“No, I should go.”

“Senior Brother Shen and Senior Brother Zhu will stay in the sect to support it.”

“Let me explain first.”

“I am more familiar with Shu Du, and I suspect that this demonic cave may not be so simple. It could be connected to the Fragrance Sect, a heretical cult that I’ve dealt with several times. They are very sinister and terrifying in terms of strength.”

“Moreover, my strength has broken through to the Middle Golden Core Stage. As long as I don’t encounter Nascent Soul Monarchs or Heavenly Demon Lords of the same level, I am confident that I can escape.”

“If only the three of you go, the sect’s high-end strength will be weakened. If you encounter Heavenly Demons and arc defeated, others will be even more suspicious of the true strength of the Xuandan Sect.”

“My presence can be understood as the Xuandan Sect allowing me to gain experience. I can slay ordinary Demon Kings, and I am sure that I will be no weaker than Senior Brother Qin leading the team. This is the most suitable arrangement.”

Han Yi said solemnly, with a very convincing rationale. As his words fell, even Zhuge Wu You fell silent for three breaths before slowly letting out a sigh of relief, his face filled with gratitude.

“Junior Brother Han is right. At this time, we must not let anyone see through the strength of our Xuandan Sect, and we must have a strong presence outside.”

“I agree.”

With Zhuge Wu You’s approval, the others also agreed. They were not afraid of death, but from the perspective of strength, Han Yi truly excelled them by a lot. The fact was indisputable, and Han Yi’s analysis also made sense..
