Ning Beichen flew through the air with them. Now, Ning Beichen had no thoughts of the Xi Du world and only wanted to take them back to the aircraft and leave this accursed place.
A paradise for cultivators? Go to hell with it!
"Left!"
A sense of danger flashed through Ning Beichen's mind, and he immediately swung his sword to the left. Without even checking if he had hit anything, he didn't stop and continued to fly forward with Liu Yilin and the others.
However, it wasn't long before Ning Beichen's sense of danger erupted like bamboo shoots after rain. Like fireflies in the dark, there were so many that Ning Beichen couldn't react in time. He could only shout to everyone, "Be careful!"
Although his warning was timely, Liu Yilin and the others were not as quick to react.
Jin Yuehe struck out with her palm at a spot in the poisonous mist. But the next second, Jin Yuehe let out a scream as she rapidly fell into the poisonous mist and disappeared.
"Yue He!"
The women cried out in alarm and chased after her. Ning Beichen, however, was entangled by several invisible Asuras. In the blink of an eye, Jin Yuehe, including Liu Yilin and the others, had all vanished.
Ning Beichen was instantly furious. His Heavenly Venerate aura erupted like a storm, and he wildly slashed his ancient bronze sword in all directions. The invisible Asuras were successively killed by Ning Beichen's ancient bronze sword. For a time, the Asuras did not dare to approach him.
However, Ning Beichen had no time to entangle with them and immediately chased in the direction where Liu Yilin and the others had disappeared.
But the poisonous mist was so dense that even Ning Beichen's special eyes could not see through it. Even with all his strength, he could only see a hazy expanse, like someone with cataracts. It was impossible to find Liu Yilin and the others.
"Yilin, Yue He, Haitang..."
Ning Beichen called out their names while frantically searching everywhere.
But they had vanished as if they had never existed. No matter how Ning Beichen searched, he could not find any trace of them.
With no other options, Ning Beichen set up a dimensional array and severely injured several four-armed Asuras to interrogate them. Through a combination of deception, guesswork, and torture, he managed to extract some information.
Liu Yilin and the others had likely been taken to the Asura Purgatory. In other words, if Ning Beichen wanted to save them, he would have to go to the Asura Purgatory.
Ning Beichen did not hesitate at all. He immediately forced several severely wounded Asuras to lead him to the Asura Purgatory.
The Asura Purgatory was known as Abi Purgatory or Avici Hell in Ning Beichen's world, meaning ceaseless suffering, a world from which one could never escape and which was filled with extreme pain.
For outsiders, it was a place of no return. How could Ning Beichen not be anxious about where Liu Yilin and the others had been taken?
If there had been any other way, he would have wanted to grind those four-armed Asuras into dust.
Under Ning Beichen's coercion, these four-armed Asuras led him into the Abi Purgatory. However, to Ning Beichen's surprise, in Abi Purgatory, he could see the surrounding scenery and the traces of the Asuras without needing the dimensional array.
Abi Purgatory was filled with darkness, the sky was black, like being in a vast abyss. Here, one could constantly hear incredibly painful and miserable screams, which made Ning Beichen's heart clench.
"Speak, where are they?"
Ning Beichen punched a four-armed Asura into a pulp and then forced another one to speak.
"Th-they might be in Abi Great City."
This four-armed Asura trembled with fear at Ning Beichen's actions and quickly replied.
"Where is Abi Great City?"
The four-armed Asura quickly pointed in a direction. Ning Beichen grabbed him and flew towards Abi Great City.
However, before long, Ning Beichen discovered many four-armed and even five-armed Asuras ahead. He had to change direction, planning to go around them. After all, he was here to rescue people, not to fight.
But soon, Ning Beichen found that there were large numbers of Asuras in this direction as well, forcing him to change direction again.
However, it was still useless. Ning Beichen discovered that Asuras were present in all directions. No matter which direction he chose, he could not avoid them. It seemed that the Asuras of Abi Purgatory already knew he had arrived and were sending Asuras to intercept him.
Ning Beichen hid in a valley, his gaze sharp as a blade, watching the Asuras not far away. He knew they would soon search for his hiding place, and time was running out.
It seemed that the idea of secretly rescuing Liu Yilin and the others was no longer feasible. There was only one path left: to kill!
Kill until the heavens and earth turn dark!
Kill until rivers of blood flow!
Ning Beichen could not give up on rescuing them, nor could he leave alone. Even if he were to die, he would make the Asuras pay a heavy price.
With this thought, Ning Beichen sat down cross-legged, and the ancient bronze sword hovered beside him.
Ning Beichen took out over a hundred bottles of pills, opened one, poured all the pills out, and stuffed them into his mouth. He wanted to put himself in the peak condition. Even if taking an overdose of pills would have some side effects, he couldn't care less.
All he wanted now was to rescue Liu Yilin and the others. If... if he couldn't save them, then he intended to make the Asuras pay a terrible price.
Ning Beichen swallowed over a hundred pills in one go. The immense medicinal power made his body swell slightly, like an overfilled balloon that could burst at any moment.
At this time, the Asuras had also approached. Ning Beichen's eyes were slightly closed, and he remained motionless, like a stone. The power of the medicine made him extremely uncomfortable, wanting only to vent.
But Ning Beichen endured. He was still waiting for the Asuras to get closer.
He didn't have time to play with the Asuras one by one. If he was going to play, he would play big.
Before long, dozens of Asuras approached the valley. The closest ones were less than a hundred meters from Ning Beichen.
At this moment, Ning Beichen's slightly closed eyes suddenly widened. He saw a towering sword energy erupt from the valley, instantly dismembering the Asuras outside.
Ning Beichen also flew out of the valley. Without a word, he charged towards the Asuras not far away.
"The human is here."
The Asuras saw Ning Beichen and shouted loudly, as if Ning Beichen were a beautiful woman, charging towards him excitedly.
However, these four-armed Asuras were no match for Ning Beichen. Ning Beichen didn't even use his ancient bronze sword; he only used his fists to beat the four-armed Asuras until they cried and wailed.
