it, Lu Xia Tian clearly saw a fat Taoist with a body shape like a large gourd. He was the Jindan cultivator he had encountered before. The Taoist's cold eyes were staring at them through this giganti..."Tens of thousands of slave miners all dying in a single night" Even the demon crane monster, Yaohuo Lao Mo, who had blood on his hands and was no stranger to death, couldn't help but show shock.

“Well, even Lord Zhenwei Cao Sheng didn't expect that although the fire spirit stone vein stored a considerable amount of spirit stones, there was a large amount of poison gas underneath, as well as other spiritual creatures. Nearly ten thousand mine slaves were almost wiped out. Later, it was only when the Nascent Soul ancestor of Daqi Kingdom in Wushang City personally took action that the poisonous gas emanating from the mine cave and other dangerous spirit creatures were sealed.” With just a few words, Nanyunzi recounted a secret that had been buried for many years to the old monster Yuhua.

"So, you know the danger here" The demon crane monster continued to ask.

"I do know about it, but the inside is extremely dangerous. Ordinary Golden Core cultivators can't enter at all. There are also formations set up by formation masters inside. I've heard that your Crane Saliva Fragrance, Daoist Yāo Hè, can dispel all poisons. I believe you won't be stingy and give me some." Nányúnzi's beautiful eyes swept over the Demon Crane monster.

"So all this talk was just to figure out who came up with the idea. But this old man needs to know if it's true before deciding whether to give you some Crane Saliva Fragrance." The demon crane monster's eyes rolled, and he didn't show any goodwill towards Nan Yunzi despite his revelations.

"Alright then, if fellow Daoist Yaohuke thinks they can get what they want and enter it smoothly with their own power, without giving me the Crane's Saliva Fragrance, that's fine." Nan Yunzi said nonchalantly.

"That's not a problem. As long as the situation is as you say, this old man naturally wouldn't begrudge a bit of Crane Saliva Fragrance. However, whether that place is truly as dangerous as you imagine remains to be seen. I think we should lure a few outsiders in, what do you think" said the Demon Crane Monster.

“Well, Daoist Yāo Hè is indeed cautious. However, this plan is quite ingenious. There are probably many people around the residence of General Zhèn Wēi who want to take advantage of the situation. It’s very suitable to let them scout the way.” Nányúnzi nodded, showing a degree of agreement with Yāo Hè's old and steady demeanor.

They smiled at each other, their eyes cast with a sinister gleam towards the distance under the clear, watery moonlight. Following Nan Yunzi's lead, they lingered for a while at the entrance of the derelict well, lost in thought, before eventually departing.

"What do you think that demonic crane monster is up to" Bai Shan scholar pondered aloud.

"Who cares what his intentions are This entire Zhenwei Hou Mansion has been searched countless times, and there shouldn't be much of a harvest. Yet, he lingered in this abandoned dry well with another person for an extended period. It is likely that whatever celestial phenomenon was triggered is within this well. Now that the Yaohe Ancestor and that demon have left, this presents a good opportunity for us." Feng Shixian was initially quite cautious, but the sudden appearance of the Yaohe Demon also made him impatient. After all, the emptiness of Zhenwei Hou Mansion was now undeniable. A missed opportunity is gone forever."

“Well then, there's nothing more to say.” Bai Shan scholar was even more impatient than Feng Shixian. He jumped into the abandoned well without hesitation, and his figure disappeared in an instant.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Feng Shixian gritted his teeth and followed closely behind.

“Oh, that Yaohe monster really has some skills. The lunar essence in this abandoned well is indeed much more concentrated than elsewhere. It seems that something inside has indeed caused a celestial phenomenon.” Bai Fan scholar’s face showed a hint of surprise.

“Things seem to be off,” Bai Shan scholar exclaimed, while Feng Shixian already frowned.

"What's wrong But the two demons, the Crane Demon and the old monster, suddenly withdrew. Are they afraid of danger inside"

"That's right. If the inside was calm, with the Crane Demon's nature, it would be impossible for him to leave without a reason," Feng Shixian said.

Bai Shan, the scholar, said, "The Youhe demon is always very suspicious. However, he has the power. If we two dawdle and miss the opportunity, it's better to retreat early. Besides, the Youhe demon only suspects us now; he hasn't really entered our realm. Our strength is inferior to his. If we continue to be timid, we might become the real threat."

Feng Shixian was startled. The reason the two of them traveled together was because Bai Shan scholar was good at judging people, while he excelled at calculating the pros and cons, complementing each other. Hearing Bai Shan scholar's analysis now, he also found it reasonable. Without further ado, he followed Bai Shan scholar into the well, unhurriedly.

The abandoned well was not short, but for a cultivator of the Golden Core stage, it was not particularly long either. The essence of the moon illuminated the Hou Mansion, and as the essence of the moon seeped into the ground, even with their high cultivation, they could not sense where it went through the thick layers of earth. However, by venturing deep into the well at this time, with their level of cultivation, they could clearly feel that this essence of the moon was converging at an astonishing speed toward a specific location.

Just by following this direction, the two of them easily arrived before the Flaming Spirit Formation.

"Something is amiss, this place is actually a formation. All that moon essence is flowing into this sealing formation." Bai Shan scholar looked at Feng Shixian and said, "Could you perhaps break this formation"

“This formation is quite peculiar. The abandoned well has an unusually abundant presence of fire spiritual energy, it’s actually a fire-elemental spirit stone vein. This isn't good!” Feng Shixian's cultivation was slightly lower, and coupled with the previous concealment of the lunar essence, he had absorbed a considerable amount of Di Yan fire poison along the way. It suddenly erupted, causing a burning sensation in his dantian.

"What's wrong" Bai Shan scholar saw Feng Shixian's painful expression, was startled, but soon a strange feeling came from his dantian.

"Bad! We've both been poisoned. That's why the demonic crane monster didn't enter—she sensed the abnormalities inside. Quick, retreat!" Feng Shixian shot backward in a burst of speed.

The White Fan Scholar had originally wanted to persist, but Feng Shixian had already withdrawn, and the pain in his dantian was growing increasingly intense. The White Fan Scholar, filled with resentment, could only retreat as well.

The Fire-Seal Array could block sound from escaping, and with Lu Xiaoteng's arrangement, Feng Shixian and Bai Shanwen outside were completely unaware of what was happening inside. However, Lu Xiaoteng understood this array and had been on guard against the situation outside. Naturally, Lu Xiaoteng already knew the situation outside the array.

"I didn't expect someone to come so soon." Lu Xia Tian snorted coldly. Beforehand, he hadn't expected that refining the Town Demon Tower would actually trigger such a shocking celestial phenomenon, attracting a large amount of lunar essence into the abandoned well. So much lunar essence was clearly coming from the sky. These Jindan cultivators who saw the omen weren't anything special. But this dried-up well wasn't a kind place. Wanting to enter and leave freely and enter the Sealed Fire Array wasn't an easy task.

Though the Fire Spirit Array is effective in sealing stray fire spirits and the Di Yan Fire Poison, as well as the Di Yue Gang Sha, it cannot seal all cultivators. Especially those who are proficient in formations like him. It seems he needs to speed up the refinement of the Demon Subduing Tower.The strangeness of it would make anyone drink a cup of potent liquor, let alone in the current situation.Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!The five-clawed golden dragon, the moment...
