301: Collective amnesia!
"Immortal Lord powerhouses died in battle?"
"Isn't that normal? Going out to find Cultivation resources inevitably leads to battles with Eerie Creature. It's perfectly reasonable for an Immortal Lord to die."
The moment you heard about the death of an Immortal Lord powerhouse, you were indeed a bit shocked.
But then you thought, going out to collect Cultivation resources is a very dangerous endeavor, and battles with Eerie Creature are unavoidable. Casualties are an inevitable fact, so the death of an Immortal Lord is perfectly reasonable.
Zi You shook her head after hearing this, her tone grave as she said,
"It's not normal!"
"Little Junior Brother, you have to understand that every time they go out, as long as there's an Immortal Lord powerhouse, that Immortal Lord powerhouse never returns!"
"Not once, but every time!"
Every time?
After hearing this, a chill ran down your spine, and you felt a sense of dread.
Because the matter Zi You spoke of might conceal an enormous secret, this was your immediate intuition.
The expression on your face also gradually turned serious.
"Not only that, Little Junior Brother, do you know what's even more terrifying?"
"What is it?"
At this moment, you were completely engrossed by Zi You's words.
You hadn't expected that the Immortal Spirit Sect, which seemed so peaceful, actually hid so many unknown things.
"What's even more terrifying is that after every Immortal Lord dies, a week later, everyone in the Immortal Spirit Sect loses their memory of that Immortal Lord."
"In other words, those Immortal Lord powerhouses who died simply do not exist in the memories of everyone in the Immortal Spirit Sect."
"What?"
"What?"
Suddenly, everyone's eyes widened, looking at Zi You in disbelief.
"If that's the case, Senior Sister, why haven't you lost your memory?"
After hearing Zi You's account, your first thought was: if everyone in the Immortal Spirit Sect had lost their memories, why could Zi You still remember those people?
At this moment, Fang Jingchun, who had been silent, spoke softly.
"It's not just Great Senior Sister who hasn't forgotten; I haven't forgotten either."
"I remember once when I went to collect resources, I also heard news that an Immortal Lord captain had died after his team returned. However, a few days later, no one paid attention to this news, as if no one remembered that Immortal Lord ever existing."
Fang Jingchun's words left everyone present even more confused.
"Why do only the people of Peak Number Twelve remember these things?"
You looked at everyone's faces, your mind constantly pondering why you all could remember these people.
You wondered what the difference was between the people of Peak Number Twelve and those of the other peaks.
Suddenly, it was as if you remembered something.
"Could it be because of that?"
Zi You looked at you muttering to yourself, her eyebrows slightly raised.
"Little Junior Brother, have you discovered something?"
"Mm!"
You nodded and took a deep breath.
"Senior Sister, you should know that Li Changfeng sends us Medicinal Pills every month. I guess the reason we're fine is most likely because of these Medicinal Pills we've been taking."
"Immortal King Li's Medicinal Pills?"
Zi You froze abruptly upon hearing this.
Zi You never expected that she would overlook such an important matter.
"But... those Medicinal Pills are also included in the resources we receive every month! Both types of Medicinal Pills are the same, and their effects are also the same."
Among the crowd, Zhou Lingxi poked out her adorable head and asked.
"This..."
Zi You was at a loss for how to answer for a moment, her gaze turning to you.
Your eyes were grave as you carefully recalled your conversation with Li Changfeng not long ago.
You wanted to see if you had missed any details.
Ultimately, you shook your head; you hadn't found anything unusual about Li Changfeng.
You didn't know if it was because it had nothing to do with Li Changfeng, or if Li Changfeng was too deeply hidden for you to detect.
"It's not the same!"
You told everyone that although the Medicinal Pills Li Changfeng sent every month and the Medicinal Pills distributed by the Immortal Spirit Sect looked no different, it was important to know that these Medicinal Pills were sent to you specifically by Li Changfeng every month, and no one else received them.
In this situation, you were even more convinced that it was because of these Medicinal Pills that you all had an understanding of the truth.
"Senior Sister! The next time there's an Immortal Lord powerhouse leading a team, let's sign up together!"
"I want to see what's really going on!"
Zi You was slightly surprised after hearing this, but she eventually nodded and agreed with your idea.
The next day!
You went to Peak One alone.
After your discussion yesterday, a bold idea suddenly emerged in your mind.
And your visit to Peak One today was to confirm this idea. If your conjecture proved true, then everything you saw before you would be overturned.
Upon arriving at Peak One, you pretended to sign up and entered the Vanguard Hall.
After entering the Vanguard Hall, you saw that the personnel of the Vanguard Hall wore different uniforms from yours.
Among the crowd, you could easily distinguish who belonged to the Vanguard Hall.
The next second, you used your Eye of Truth to continuously check the information of these people.
After a long time, you frowned deeply, then turned your gaze to the other people in the Vanguard Hall.
"Not?"
"None of them?"
After a period of observation, you discovered that everyone here was from the Human Race; there were no Eerie Creature present.
This fact shattered your previous conjecture.
Before coming to the Vanguard Hall, you had even considered that everyone in the Vanguard Hall might be Eerie Creature, which would explain how they could kill Immortal Lords without anyone knowing.
However, when you saw that the Immortal King Elders of the Vanguard Hall were all Human Race, this thought was cast aside.
You felt that perhaps you were being too sensitive.
If there truly were Eerie Creature within the Immortal Spirit Sect, how could there be Human Race at the Immortal King Realm?
Human Race at the Immortal King Realm posed a significant threat to Eerie Creature.
Once your objective was achieved, you turned and left the Vanguard Hall, returning to Peak Number Twelve.
You told Zi You that you would continue your secluded Cultivation and would only emerge when an Immortal Lord powerhouse led a team.
And so, after half a year of secluded Cultivation, Zi You interrupted you.
Zi You told you that recently, someone from Peak Three had broken through to the Immortal Lord Realm, and after his Breakthrough, he immediately went to the Vanguard Hall to sign up to go out and search for Cultivation resources.
Zi You informed you that this person was currently recruiting a team, and the Vanguard Hall had only dispatched three Heavenly Immortals to accompany him.
"The Vanguard Hall only dispatched Heavenly Immortal Realm Disciples?"
"Then how will the Cultivation resources brought back be distributed?"
