The Star Corpse Land is vast.
Although it's within the White Mist Zone, its danger level is not low.
The hazy white mist can greatly suppress a Cultivator's Primordial Spirit and Soul perception.
And Cultivators who lose their Divine Soul perception are undoubtedly blind, making it difficult for them to react to danger.
Not to mention that the Star Corpse Land is now filled with an endless supply of Undead Fiends.
It can be said that this situation is a great test for any Cultivator.
The Seventy-Two Squad, where Jun Xiaoyao is, has gradually begun to delve deeper into the Star Corpse Land.
Before them, there was an unceasing stream of Undead Fiends.
Jun Xiaoyao, holding the Great Luo Sword Embryo, swept it across, directly carving out a path.
Even the Blind Old Cultivator and others sighed in their hearts.
If it weren't for Jun Xiaoyao, they would have suffered many casualties this time.
After an unknown period of slaughter,
finally, the number of Undead Fiends around them also began to gradually decrease.
Although they would still encounter them from time to time, it was no longer like before, where they encountered them constantly.
"Is it over?"
Some Seventy-Two Squad members looked around.
But due to the isolation and obstruction of the white mist, they couldn't perceive anything.
"It's not over, but we should have already broken out of the most densely populated area of the Demon Tide," Lu Xingling said.
Jun Xiaoyao glanced at Lu Xingling.
As expected of someone with a Soul Heavenly Eye.
Presumably, her Divine Soul perception, even in the White Mist Zone, should be very keen and able to cover a large area.
Jun Xiaoyao also understood why Lu Xingling's cannon fodder squad had been able to survive until now.
Because in a place like the White Mist Zone, Lu Xingling's Soul Heavenly Eye had a huge advantage.
She could detect and avoid various risks in advance.
Afterward, Jun Xiaoyao and Lu Xingling, along with the members of the Seventy-Two Squad, continued to go deeper.
Jun Xiaoyao felt that things were not that simple.
If they continued to investigate, they might discover something.
After about several days,
Jun Xiaoyao and the others had completely delved into the Star Corpse Land.
And at this moment, within a dilapidated Star Remains ruin,
Jun Xiaoyao's Seventy-Two Squad was resting.
Although there was a great god like Jun Xiaoyao present,
the Seventy-Two Squad had also suffered many casualties.
Seeing this, Jun Xiaoyao also took out the Spring of Life's water.
"Young Lord, this is too precious."
Seeing the Spring of Life water that Jun Xiaoyao took out, Lu Xingling was also a little embarrassed.
The preciousness of the Spring of Life was beyond doubt.
Even a single drop was a life-saving treasure.
But Jun Xiaoyao was willing to give it to them for free.
This caused a subtle change in Lu Xingling's gaze towards Jun Xiaoyao.
It was the first time she had seen a man with such a perfect character.
On the other side, the Blind Old Cultivator and the One-Armed Cultivator and others, seeing this,
also knew that Jun Xiaoyao was a compassionate person.
He was not the kind of Young Lord of an Imperial Clan who was arrogant and condescending.
Thinking of this, they had some ideas in their hearts.
In the White Mist Zone, there was no distinction between day and night.
It was just perpetually shrouded in white mist.
Lu Xingling sat cross-legged under a Star Remains, adjusting her breath.
Jun Xiaoyao was in another location.
At this moment, two figures approached Jun Xiaoyao, they were the Blind Old Cultivator and the One-Armed Cultivator.
"What can I do for you two?"
Jun Xiaoyao, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and asked.
"If Young Lord hadn't joined us this time, our Seventy-Two Squad would have probably met with an unfortunate end long ago," the Blind Old Cultivator said.
"No need to be polite, you two must have something to discuss with me."
Jun Xiaoyao's eyes were deep, and he saw through their intentions at a glance.
"Alas, this, I don't know if it's appropriate to say, but it seems that only Young Lord can help solve it," the Blind Old Cultivator hesitated.
"Speak," Jun Xiaoyao said with a faint smile.
The Blind Old Cultivator sighed, and finally made up his mind.
"It's about the old captain, that is, Lu Xingling's father," the Blind Old Cultivator said.
Next, he also recounted some matters in detail.
Lu Xingling's father was once a prominent figure in the Town Boundary Army of East Ridge Pass.
The team he led was also one of the top ten ace teams in the Town Boundary Army.
At its peak, it had tens of thousands of members.
The Blind Old Cultivator and the One-Armed Cultivator also joined the team at that time.
So they also witnessed Lu Xingling growing up in the army.
Originally, if things had continued to develop this way,
Lu Xingling's father had the potential to become a Grand Commander, or even a Commander, of the Town Boundary Army.
But because of one incident, Lu Xingling's life was completely changed.
That incident was during a mission assignment and execution.
Lu Xingling's father had a conflict with a person of extraordinary status and contradicted him.
"Oh, who was it?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
The Blind Old Cultivator said in a deep tone, "The Golden Eye Demon Lord, one of the Demon Clan Four Lords."
"Demon Clan Four Lords, what are those?"
Jun Xiaoyao tilted his head slightly.
He wasn't very clear about the Prodigies of the younger generation in the Boundary Sea.
Because to him, they were all just insignificant figures, not worth bothering about.
"The Demon Clan Four Lords are the most powerful Prodigies among the four pulse Yao Race in the Heavenly Demon Universe."
"At the same time, they are also Named Disciples under the Snow Moon Demon Emperor," the Blind Old Cultivator said.
"I see."
Jun Xiaoyao's tone was indifferent.
The origins of these Demon Clan Four Lords were insignificant to him.
But to others, they were indeed not to be provoked.
"That Golden Eye Demon Lord acted recklessly and didn't understand military deployment at all."
"When the old captain pointed out his mistakes, he still thought the old captain was contradicting and offending him."
"And after this incident, the old captain received a special mission."
"It was said to be an ordinary mission, but in fact, it was the most dangerous mission."
"The army suffered heavy losses, tens of thousands of people died, and the old captain also died in that mission."
"But we all know that this was actually the Golden Eye Demon Lord's revenge on the old captain."
"It's just that the Golden Eye Demon Lord has an extraordinary status, being a Named Disciple of the Snow Moon Demon Emperor, and no one dares to punish him in this East Ridge Pass."
The Blind Old Cultivator's eyes were filled with resentment as he spoke.
The old captain cherished his soldiers like his own children and was very good to them.
It was truly regrettable that such a talented general was framed and killed by the Golden Eye Demon Lord.
"And what's even more heartbreaking is this child, Xingling."
"After the old captain's death, she didn't become disheartened but resolutely took on the responsibility and took over this team."
"But because of the Golden Eye Demon Lord, although everyone in East Ridge Pass knew that Xingling had extraordinary talent and was even a battle formation master,"
"she couldn't get promoted; not only that, but she was also suppressed."
"This team, which originally still had tens of thousands of people, continuously suffered losses in mission after mission, becoming less than ten thousand now."
The Blind Old Cultivator's voice trembled as he spoke.
It was hard to imagine what kind of pressure Lu Xingling was enduring.
She had extraordinary talent but couldn't get nurtured or promoted.
She was even suppressed.
The culprit who caused her father's death was still at large.
It could be said that anyone else would not be able to accept such a situation.
But Lu Xingling, as a woman, did not give up; instead, she stubbornly led the team and persevered until now.
Hearing this, Jun Xiaoyao also sighed slightly.
This girl, Lu Xingling, truly had a difficult fate.
