Chapter 2430 - 1415
The people from the Dugu Family were sunbathing and barbecuing, even though they hadn’t found other Demonic Beasts to use as food.
They managed to cook the food they brought with them here.
Furthermore, there were some foods hidden by the lions, which could also be used for cooking.
Within the obedient lion group, they did not fear these lions rebelling.
Because every lion had Worm Insects within them, continuously controlling each lion.
Perhaps the lions were resisting, or perhaps they were also trying to find ways to free themselves from this control.
The people from the Dugu Family also took precautions, having their Spiritual Pets form a Formation outside, preventing the lions from having a chance to rebel.
Lunch and dinner, the people from the Dugu Family indulged in.
When night fell, they had the lions build houses in advance, which could defend against the Hell Palace’s attraction at night.
Living inside them, there was no danger at all.
Their residential area wasn’t undefended; they would set up formations in the residential area, not only to prevent attacks from Demonic Beasts but also attacks from Ghosts.
As night descended, indeed, large groups of different powerful Ghosts searched everywhere for humans.
These powerful Ghosts brought weaker Ghosts with them, looking for opportunities to attack the humans who entered.
Night was their domain, night was their ally.
Though night had come, the Magical Treasure produced a red moon.
The night wasn’t dark, allowing Ghosts to have more energy under the moonlight, strengthening their forms.
Every location where humans resided was already searched by various powerful Ghosts.
Actually, they were dispatched by the Hell Palace’s Artifact Spirit, tasked with attacking humans, as long as they didn’t kill them, they could weaken human abilities.
They could also absorb human vitality.
During the night, their family’s people were directly protected within formations, and also had the protection of the lion’s territory.
Not that Ghosts didn’t want to intrude, they weighed the pros and cons, finding no way to break in here, so they went elsewhere.
After all, there were many Human Cultivator teams entering; the strong ones couldn’t enter, so they could go to other places.
Night was their domain, allowing them control, with the added power of the red moon in the night.
Moreover, during the night, they received help from the Hell Palace’s attraction, except for those aided by Spiritual Pets who never failed, or those humans who fought Demonic Beasts to a draw.
Other entrants into the Hell Palace were repeatedly defeated, now facing more Ghosts besieging them, making the Hell Palace a place where the weak struggle to survive, like the saying about bullying.
In a place, the weaker they are, the more they’re bullied by Demonic Beasts or other creatures.
The Human Cultivators entered the Hell Palace, also experiencing the kind of suffocating feeling of being bullied by other Demonic Beasts, Demons, and Ghosts.
If not for the Hell Palace’s Artifact Spirit, which was also providing protection, perhaps they’d be reduced to nothing here.
Being Body Seized, perishing here.
Human Cultivators did not realize their Saint Master was observing, though unable to assist those weak, still preventing their death.
Suffering some injuries and learning a lesson was inevitable.
Yuan Xiao and the family members, upon entering the Hell Palace, were immediately surrounded by Demons; the place they arrived at was a misty black area.
Actually, Demonic Wolves inhabited this place, but they didn’t appear. They arrived at this black area occupied by Demons, which wasn’t visited by other Demons.
However, the black mist here was poisonous, or other Demons came, not united. Other Demons might be able to eat humans and Body Seize, causing those Demonic Beasts to easily die.
In places like this with toxic soil and mist, even with Vitality Flowers, they couldn’t be planted here.
Having Vitality Flowers here prevents poisoning, but staying here long-term is not advisable, as these poisonous mists are not native to the creatures here.
This is because many toxic creatures inhabit here, cultivated by the Demons, including poisonous plants.
If the Tang Family came, they would certainly research the poisonous plants and creatures here.
Yet, it was Yuan Xiao’s family members who came; although their family specialized not in crafting antidotes for poisons.
However, their Human Cultivators had long been storing detoxifying medicines; previously, the Pills they consumed contained elements that detoxified their bodies over a long period.
If other cultivators arrived here, they’d surely feel dizzy and be poisoned.
Yuan Xiao and his companions were highly capable, especially in practicing Buddhist Law, the black mist posed them little harm.
Upon arrival, they noticed the black mist contained poison and Demonic Qi, but the Yuan Family was unafraid.
Possibly because they long consumed top-grade Pills for cultivation, their bodies gained resistance to poison, providing them with pride, and naturally, it was their cultivation in Buddhist Law.
The methods they practiced were specifically to restrain this Demonic Qi.
Following Yuan Xiao’s instructions, upon reaching this place, the Yuan Family sensed something was amiss, promptly deploying their pets.
To establish protective shields for these Human Cultivators.
Placing their bodies in a protected state, they then utilized their newly learned skill, a type of Buddhist Seal, which not only protected their bodies but allowed the seal to deploy a protective shield, enabling the Buddhist Seal to function.
