Chapter 500 - 262: Who Betrayed? You Should Have Said So Earlier! _2
But that was the only piece of good news; the rest was all bad news:
The sea water contained the spiritual power of an ancient array, significantly reducing the range of their divine souls’ perception, to less than one ten-thousandth of what it used to be.
And this grand array stretched for at least a thousand miles; for the six of them to search every inch would be exceedingly time-consuming and tedious.
What made matters worse was they couldn’t afford to just have a cursory look— the techniques of the Great Freedom Demon Sect were especially adept at hiding in the shadows, and the seabed was pitch black. The Netherworld Immortal might just be lurking in any shadow.
Not only did they dare not move quickly, they even dared not spread out too far, lest they fell into the Netherworld Immortal’s trap again.
Xie Qingxue and the others understood the urgency of the situation and were searching around, but there was a hint of irritation between their brows.
Compared to the others, Xie Qingxue had an additional layer of worry. She looked toward where the demon qi was gathering; though she couldn’t see the situation there, the mighty auras of the four Demon Race Divinity Transformations were so immense that she could roughly gauge the strength of the Demon Race.
She didn’t know whether... the Jiushan Realm could stop these Great Demons, save the commoners of the East Sea County, and her own junior brother.

Because there was no time to explain, the Jiushan Sect disciples naturally did not understand why, but from the situation, everyone could tell that they were preparing for the enemy’s invasion of the Jiushan Realm.
