Countless immense auras locked onto Blackie and the others, filled with killing intent.
“Speak up, how do you plan on dying?!” Just as it was happening, Blackie walked forward.
He slowly walked forward before he said, “Don’t misunderstand, we’ve actually used the gray mist as well. We’re on the same side!”
Haha.
Everyone was cold, thinking that Blackie was speaking nonsense.
The next moment, their expressions changed.
That was because gray mist started to appear around Blackie’s body. Other than that, Yang Jing and the others started to materialize gray mist as well!
“Y-you’ve actually absorbed gray mist?!”
Everyone widened their eyes at the same time as they stared at Blackie and the others in shock.
“Since you’ve chosen the same path, we’re on the same side. Why were you so ruthless to us?” they asked with a bitter tone.
The Heavenly Palace had already prepared their answer. Yang Jing smiled slightly as he said, “Everyone, it was our fault before. We pursued and killed those with the gray mist so we could use it for our own training.”
The moment he said that, there were countless looks of realization.
Killing others to get more gray mist was something very normal. Many among them had done the same. However, they had all made their intentions clear from the start. None hid it as much as the Heavenly Palace did.
It caused them to think that the Heavenly Palace were good guys.
“How ruthless. You guys hid it so well!”
“The whole world was filled by all of you!”
“Heavenly Palace. You’re something else. You’re so ruthless. The higher-ups will definitely have a spot for you!”
Suddenly, a figure shot over from the distance, appearing in front of Yang Jing and the others in a flash. He had an arrogance to him but there was a smile on his face. It really made everyone feel uncomfortable.
He looked at Yang Jian and the others with a look of praise.
Killing their own with ruthless means. Hiding it so well. They were all talents. It was what the gray mist needed.
Killing others to obtain the gray mist would be regarded as terrible behavior anywhere else. However, among the gray mist cultivators, it was something worthy of praise. It was a way of cultivation.
That person introduced himself, “I’m Xu Da, the leader of the Wind Whispering Pavilion. I welcome all of you.”
Yang Jing and the others greeted very naturally, “Hello, Cultivator Xu.”
“Come, let me show you around.” Xu Da brought them forward.
He had no suspicion toward the Heavenly Palace at all. Absorbing gray mist was the best form of proof. Everyone walked the same path, so they were temporary allies.
Listening to Xu Da, Yang Jing and the others got an overview of the situation.
The Wind Whispering Pavilion was the most prominent force in the Southern Star Region. When the gray mist had just started to erupt, they were the first to arrive. Other than them, there was also the Sky Approach Sect, the Imperious Sect, and four other major forces.
Without an exception, all of them were contaminated by the gray mist.
They had been Wisdom Dictators. With the gray mist in them, their powers improved drastically. Even the Wisdom Pill Pavilion’s leader would not be able to stand up to any of them.
That caused Yang Jing and the others to be relieved. Thankfully they had been careful and made preparations. They were going to join the gray mist cultivators to see if there were any chances.
“Fellow cultivators from the Heavenly Palace, I know you like to kill others to steal their gray mist, but you can’t do that here!” Xu Da warned.
“Oh? Why? As long as we swallow all the gray mist here, we’ll be the strongest!” Xiao Chengfeng frowned and said unhappily. He shouted loudly.
The others had aggressive expressions as well.
Seeing their reactions, Xu Da was even more sure that they had all absorbed the gray mist. He smiled coldly and said, “There are still many cultivators in the Origins Realm. They’re dumb and don’t know how good the gray mist is. They’re trying to kill gray mist cultivators everywhere. We have to stand together to fight against them! This is a war between the new and old era. We can’t fight among ourselves!”
Xiao Chengfeng said, “If that’s the case, then whatever.”
Xu Da said, “We have all gathered here to band together. You will all definitely become executives. We’re also here for the Gray Mist Origin Realm!”
The Gray Mist Origin Realm?
Yang Jing was about to ask when he felt an incredibly strong and cold power.
Looking up, he saw that a world of gray mist was in front of him!
On the ground, a gigantic crack was constantly producing gray mist. Some of the gray mist dispersed everywhere, but most of it gathered together, forming a barrier!
No, compared to calling it a barrier, it was more like a massive door.
In front of that door, countless cultivators were gathered as they absorbed the gray mist. They all looked at it greedily with a fire in their eyes.
“Praise my name, and live forever!”
“Praise my name, and live forever!”
“Praise my name, and live forever!”
…
Alluring shouts came from within the gray mist door. It sounded incredibly arrogant and powerful. It earned the reverence of the gray mist cultivators.
Xu Da led the Heavenly Palace’s people close to the door. There were six others there. The gray mist that surrounded them was just as dense as Xu Da’s. It was obvious they were the leaders here.
Their skills were extraordinary. They might not have absorbed the gray mist before, but after they arrived, they naturally did.
However, Blackie glanced around and found that even though there were many cultivators around, most of them were not that strong. There were massive gulfs between all of them. The lowest among them were merely at the Immortal Realm. The only reason there were no weaker cultivators was that it was impossible for weaker ones to arrive there.
Other than that, there were no real experts outside of the seven Wisdom Dictators who had the gray mist in them. It was obvious that many strong cultivators who had absorbed the gray mist had their own ideas and did not gather here.
Xu Da pointed toward the door, “That’s the Gray Mist Origin Realm.”
Yang Jing asked, “What’s inside?”
Xu Da had a greedy look in his eyes as he said, “It has the purest form of gray mist. That’s true Wisdom. However, it’s sealed in the space there. We need to unseal it to take over the Origins Realm!”
So, that was what was happening.
Yang Jing and the others had looks of realization before they started to have passionate looks on their faces.
Only, they did not intend to absorb the gray mist themselves. If they gave so much gray mist to the expert, they would definitely be rewarded!
It was several times faster than gathering small amounts everywhere.
Xiao Chengfeng said impatiently, “When can we go inside?”
Xu Da laughed loudly, “Hahaha, don’t panic. The entrance to the realm should be formed in less than a day.”
