Once you descend another mile, the risk of encountering high-level demons increases significantly. Consequently, Chen Xuan and his group were forced to explore cautiously along the horizontal tunnels. Chen Xuan was not particularly interested in the reward offered by the City Lord’s mansion; he was focused on the possibility that if his master, Gu Chenxiao, had indeed left a legacy in the North Wasteland grottoes, it would surely not be hidden in the shallow layers. However, his current strength was insufficient to deal with the high-level demons that might lurk deeper down.
As Chen Xuan pondered this, Wu Tong suddenly tapped his shoulder lightly and transmitted his voice: "Brother Chen, look!"
Following Wu Tong’s gaze, Chen Xuan saw a platform across an abyss. In the distance, approximately five or six hundred monstrous creatures—covered in cold, glistening black scales and possessing sharp fangs and claws—were gathered together, seemingly listening respectfully to someone. Chen Xuan’s eyes narrowed. He was stunned to see so many demons gathered at the base of the shallow grottoes. Furthermore, their cultivation levels did not appear low; if these five or six hundred demons were all equivalent to Golden Core cultivators, being discovered by them would be a catastrophe.
