The Daughter Of Destiny Broke Off The Engagement? I Married Her Sister Instead.

Chapter 180 The Origin Of Evil

Chu Qianqiu infused some spiritual energy into the cultivators present, not wanting them to faint.

The few people who had just regained consciousness looked much better now, and they were no longer gasping for breath.

"Senior, may I ask who you are and which sect you belong to? We, Feilu Sect, will definitely remember today's favor!" A seemingly older man spoke up, accompanied by several middle-aged male cultivators.

Chu Qianqiu didn't want to answer this question. Instead, he directly inquired about what had just happened, as those monsters were the real thing that interested him.

"First, tell me about those monsters. What are they, where do they come from, and why are they chasing you?"

"Senior, don't you know? It has been a long time since this incident happened. Why are you asking about it now?"

The old man seemed a bit at a loss when faced with this seemingly young senior.

In his impression, the powerhouses of the major sects had been trapped in this black shroud for a long time, so it was unlikely that anyone would not know how these monsters were created.

"I just entered. Hurry up and tell me."

"If you don't tell me, I will kill all of you."

Chu Qianqiu showed a hint of impatience, and the sword of heavenly fire in his hand was burning.

The old man became frightened and quickly confessed, no longer dragging it out.

"It's like this. A long time ago, when we first entered this black shroud, these monsters already existed."

"At first, we didn't know how these monsters were created until we witnessed one of them undergoing a mutation."

"It was an ordinary commoner who lived in the imperial city. He appeared in our sight, completely blackened, with only a breath left."

"We didn't know how he became like that, but later investigations revealed that he had inhaled too much of the evil qi in this black shroud."

"This black shroud emits a pervasive evil qi that can forcefully invade the bodies of ordinary people but is ineffective against cultivators above the Foundation Building stage."

"After inhaling a large amount of this evil qi, that resident of the imperial city turned into a monster right in front of us."

"The moment he transformed into a monster, he completely lost his sanity and became a walking corpse, only concerned with devouring people."

"That guy's body looked extremely swollen, with flesh crawling like worms all over it. His mouth mutated and became huge, even able to spit out an extremely long tongue."

"After the mutation, he even possessed the strength of a cultivator and reached the Foundation Building stage, which was quite exaggerated!"

"Our Feilu Sect members immediately eliminated this abnormal creature, thinking that the farce would end there. But unexpectedly, more and more monsters appeared around us, and we became overwhelmed."

"While retreating, we constantly moved towards safer areas and tried to meet up with other cultivators from our sect. However, during the process, we attracted more and more of these monsters."

"In the end, we were trapped on the outskirts of the imperial city, with no one coming to support us, and we had no information about other cultivators."

"At first, with our strength, we could still fight back against these monsters at the Foundation Building stage. But later, we found it extremely difficult to kill them. Even after cutting their bodies apart, they could still revive through an Integrated Union!"

"Moreover, the more we dismembered these monsters, the faster they gathered together and the larger they became!"

"Gradually, these monsters evolved into giant creatures, and their strength kept increasing. We were forced to fight desperately."

"Since we couldn't directly eliminate these monsters, and the more noise we made, the more monsters we attracted, the cultivators of our Feilu Sect could only choose to defend conservatively and stop attacking."

"We have been defending for who knows how many days, and myself and several elders of Feilu Sect have long been exhausted."

"Many of our cultivators have died miserably in the mouths of these monsters, integrated into their Union."

"If it weren't for you, senior, coming to help, I believe all of our members would have died at the hands of these monsters."

...

At this point, the old man finally confessed everything he had experienced before.

Chu Qianqiu pondered and understood how this monster was created, but a new question arose.

Where does this evil energy in the black hood come from?

He didn't ask this question again.

Because it seemed that even the old man didn't know.

"By the way, senior, I also have a question I want to know..."

"You mean, you two just entered from the black hood, is that true or false?"

"The black hood is indestructible. Since a little girl named Stephanie opened it once, no one has been able to open it again."

"We only realized it after entering, but it's too late for regrets."

"How much time has passed outside? And how did you come in?"

After asking several questions in a row, the old man and the middle-aged men all looked at Chu Qianqiu eagerly.

If this senior had a way to come in, then naturally there would be a way to take them out.

They didn't want to stay in this terrifying place, which was like hell, for even a second longer.

No matter what the senior asked for, all they wanted now was for him to take them away.

"You want to leave? I don't have time to send you, so forget about it."

"But I can tell you that it has been three months outside the black hood. Is the time here different from the outside?"

Thinking of this question, Chu Qianqiu asked casually.

The several elders of the Feilu Sect and the old man were all shocked and didn't quite believe the fact spoken by the senior.

"It has been three months already? How is that possible..."

"Although we have endured in the black hood for a long time, our instincts tell us that it hasn't been three months!"

"According to our estimation, it shouldn't be more than seven days!"

"Oh?"

"The time here has been slowed down?"

Upon hearing the new information, Chu Qianqiu hesitated.

Because he wasn't sure if this was a good thing or a bad thing for him.

Now, three months have passed outside, but inside the black hood, only a few days have gone by.

But in this way, his father and the others should have only been here for a few days as well, and there should still be a chance to find them and meet them alive.

For Qiao Xiaoxiao, who has been trapped here for three months, it has actually only been a few days, greatly increasing her chances of survival.

...

"Alright, knowing this is enough. We'll meet again in the future."

Turning around, Chu Qianqiu was determined to leave and headed towards the center of the imperial city shrouded in evil energy.

The few remaining Feilu Sect cultivators who were still awake panicked when they saw Chu Qianqiu wanting to leave.

Now, they were carrying a group of unconscious disciples, without the protection of the senior, they would be doomed.

At this moment, the question of whether they could leave or not was not important. What mattered was that they could live for one more second!

So they understood that they must follow this senior right now!
