276: Big Reshuffle

The moment they saw Shen Xi, everyone couldn't help but smile.

Although they had heard Shen Xi's voice before, they still had some reservations in their hearts.

Was that voice really Shen Xi's?

And how did the other party communicate with them?

Everyone even suspected that it might be the Yao Beasts from the Sealed Land, disguised as Shen Xi's voice, tricking them into re-entering the Sealed Land, hoping to catch them all in one go.

After all, they couldn't even contact Shen Xi using a sound transmission flower, so it was unlikely Shen Xi had a way to contact them. On the contrary, the Yao Beasts in the Sealed Land might have some special way to communicate with the outside world.

However, even though they were full of doubts, they still resolutely stepped into the Sealed Land again.

They wanted to take a gamble, betting that Shen Xi was truly safe and sound.

Now, after witnessing with their own eyes that Shen Xi was fine, the hearts that had been in their throats finally settled down.

"Brother Shen, that's great, you're okay!"

"I knew these Yao Beasts couldn't threaten Brother Shen."

"Tsk tsk tsk, I wonder who it was just now who almost lost control of their emotions and charged into the Sealed Land as if their life depended on it."

"Would you die if you didn't expose me!"

"It's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay!"

"Brother Shen, how exactly did you do it?"

Seeing Shen Xi, his companions couldn't help but speak up one after another.

The joy of surviving a disaster made them smile from ear to ear.

"I said, I have some life-saving methods."

Shen Xi didn't elaborate.

If he said too much, he would have to mention the Tower of the Heavens and the broken sword.

It was better not to let his companions know about these things.

After all, things of this level could very likely attract unwarranted disaster. If his companions knew, not only would there be no benefit, but they would also be implicated.

"Holy crap! The ground is all red!"

At this moment, Chen Fang finally noticed the change in the ground.

When they left, it was still a stretch of yellow earth, but now, it had been completely stained red with blood.

The air was filled with a strong, pungent smell of blood.

"Brother Shen, don't tell me you killed hundreds of thousands of Yao Beasts?"

Liu Linsheng swallowed hard, asking in disbelief.

But very quickly, he immediately shook his head: "That shouldn't be possible. If they were all killed, just the Yao Beast corpses would pile up into mountains, but it's so empty here."

The corpses of the Yao Beast army had all been devoured by the Sphinx as blood food, leaving only a small portion that it hadn't had time to consume.

It was precisely because of this that everyone didn't notice anything unusual at first.

Otherwise, the corpses of hundreds of thousands of Yao Beasts would have been too conspicuous.

"Master, how did you escape? Are those Yao Beasts still searching for your whereabouts? Should we immediately find a hidden place to hide and not stay here any longer?"

Situ Ye directly asked a triple question.

As he spoke, his nerves were taut, and he carefully observed the surroundings.

From the current situation, Shen Xi had not escaped danger.

Those Yao Beasts were still alive; it was just that Shen Xi had escaped their encirclement through some method.

If the Yao Beast army discovered their whereabouts, they would definitely surround them again.

"They are all dead..."

After thinking for a moment, Shen Xi still selectively revealed the truth.

In his description, when the Yao Beast army attacked him, the Thatched Cottage moved on its own, slaughtering all the Yao Beasts.

He was able to survive thanks to the protection of the Thatched Cottage.

"It was also because of the Thatched Cottage that I was able to communicate with you all..."

Shen Xi then recounted the conversation he had with Zhu Feng Ao's Clone in detail.

"Senior Zhu Feng Ao is truly worthy of being a virtuous predecessor of our Human Race, silently sacrificing so much for the Human Race."

"So, as long as we kill all the untamed Yao Beasts in the Sealed Land, we can obtain the first half of the Wind Chasing Swordplay?"

"Charge, charge, charge! Kill these bloodthirsty monsters!"

Everyone exclaimed, their emotions running high.

They had been suppressed for too long.

In addition to the resentment from being surrounded by Yao Beasts earlier, there was also their concern for Shen Xi's safety.

Now, they could finally vent it all out.

"I asked you to come in with this purpose in mind. With the protection of the Thatched Cottage, our lives are sufficiently guaranteed, and the Sealed Land will become our best whetstone. At that time, everyone will act separately, each finding Yao Beasts to fight and gain combat experience."

Shen Xi finally stated his purpose.

He informed his companions that he was fine, not only to put their minds at ease but also to give them an opportunity to hone themselves.

In the outside world, there weren't so many powerful enemies waiting for them to choose from.

But in the Sealed Land, everyone could engage in continuous battles, gradually accumulating combat experience.

"I agree!"

"This is a heaven-sent opportunity!"

"Combat experience is sometimes more valuable than so-called Legacy."

"That's right, if it weren't for the Sealed Land, where would we have so many opportunities for life-and-death struggles."

"Then let's split up!"

His companions immediately agreed, and without waiting for Shen Xi to speak further, they each chose a direction and left.

Because of the Thatched Cottage, their safety was guaranteed as long as they were within the Sealed Land.

Even if they encountered danger, the Thatched Cottage would come to their rescue immediately.

As for Shen Xi, he also chose a direction and left.

His mission was different from his companions'. His companions needed to fight life-and-death battles to improve their combat experience.

Shen Xi, however, had only one mission: hunt Yao Beasts and acquire demon beast lifespan.

A major reshuffle unfolded in the Sealed Land.

Yao Beasts emitting black light, targeted by the Thatched Cottage, were killed one after another, while the remaining Yao Beasts emitting golden light escaped the calamity and saved their lives.

This reshuffle lasted for three days and three nights!

It wasn't until all the black-light Yao Beasts were completely annihilated that everything finally ended.

"Brother Shen, you're too fierce! You must have killed over ninety percent of the Yao Beasts, right?"

"I haven't had enough yet! All the black-light Yao Beasts are already dead."

"I finally understand why Brother Shen was able to gain Senior Zhu Feng Ao's approval. It's not just his astonishing talent, but also his ruthlessness towards Yao Beasts."

"Hmph! Why show mercy to those beasts? Senior Zhu Feng Ao said that only Yao Beasts with malice towards the Human Race emit black light. Since they want to harm our Human Race, they should be prepared to be killed by us in return."

"Exactly! Those who kill will be killed; those who insult will be insulted. If these Yao Beasts hadn't been so unrepentant, why would we have acted?"

"I still feel like I'm dreaming right now. Millions of Yao Beasts, just like that, all killed?"
