Meng Li said: "What the fifth senior brother said is not without reason. Except for the ninth junior brother, we are all spiritual body cultivators, and we all have the strength to kill the ninth junior brother. Although Mr. Li has not yet advanced to the spiritual body stage, his strength is comparable to that of us. Just from the perspective of cultivation, we are all suspicious."

"However, Junior Brother Ninth was not killed in Ling Valley, but outside the valley. After being transmitted, we immediately gathered in Ling Valley to discuss. There was no time to commit a crime, so we should not be the murderer who killed Junior Brother Ninth."

"And there are only ten people in this sealed area, so only Mr. Li, who has not yet responded to the message for me, is the most suspicious. Although I don't believe that Mr. Li deliberately killed Junior Brother Ninth, at this moment, his suspicion is indeed the greatest."

Nie Xin said, "At that time, we made an agreement that as long as anyone harmed his fellow disciples, no matter who they were, everyone else would join forces to eliminate them from the unknown death of Junior Brother Ninth. We cannot give up the original agreement and must avenge Junior Brother Ninth. Since Uncle Li refused to come and did not reply to me, I might as well go to visit and ask carefully in person."

"We can't wrongly accuse Mr. Li of this, but we can't let go of the suspicious person who killed Mr. Ninth."

Nie Xin’s words were quite fair, and many disciples nodded slightly and expressed their agreement.

"Okay," Liu Chenfeng said: "I'll go to see Uncle Li together. However, the matter has not been clarified yet, so we must not rashly engage in Uncle Li. Maybe things are not that simple, but something else is strange."

"I hope this is the case," Nie Xin said: "But if Uncle Li really killed Junior Brother Ninth and he admitted it personally, what should we do? Should we let it go, or should we keep the promise and join forces to kill Uncle Li?"

"This matter is absolutely impossible," Liu Chenfeng said resolutely: "But if this is true, Liu will definitely take action personally and kill Uncle Li with all his might."

"It would be enough for senior brother to say this." Nie Xin nodded: "As Mr. Li, Nie doesn't believe that he would do such a move. But after hearing that Mr. Li has practiced the magic skills, it is hard to guarantee that he will not get into a demon because of this. His mind and nature have changed drastically and killed Mr. Jiu. After all, in the past two hundred years, I have never contacted Mr. Li again, and I don't know how he has become."

Nie Xin's words hit everyone's mind, and everyone was silent and worried. That situation is probably the situation that everyone is most reluctant to face.

In order to save time, the group of people penetrated directly into the void through the treading sword formation set up by Hua Yun. After a moment, they arrived at the dense forest where Li Muran usually practiced.

As soon as they flew here, everyone was shocked.

"What's going on? Isn't this a lush and vast forest? How could it become the dead wasteland now? Did the trees disappear overnight?" Jian Ling was shocked.

The sword spirit has visited Li Muran here many times and is quite familiar with it. However, the dense forest has been beyond recognition and he cannot recognize it at all. If he hadn't sensed that Li Muran's breath was not far ahead, he would have thought he had been shuttled to the wrong place.

If the jungle was destroyed by large-scale magical powers such as flames, some traces of ashes and other residual ones should be left behind. However, there was no trace left here, as if the jungle disappeared without a trace in an instant, and was completely angry.

Everyone continued to fly forward and soon saw a huge cloud cluster gathering in the distant sky.

The heaven and earth energy contained in this cloud group is actually a mixed energy, not a spiritual cloud or a demon cloud. It is very strange.

There are no heavy clouds and mists below the clouds, which is where Li Muran practices.

"Fellow Daoist Li's breath is within this ban," said Jian Ling, "but the clouds above are a bit strange."

Fang Tianao said in confusion: "It's indeed a bit strange. This momentum is like the celestial phenomena that advanced to the spiritual body period decades ago. However, at that time, the celestial phenomena gathered in a ball of spiritual clouds, not such a cloud cluster with mixed energy."

"Is Uncle Li fighting against the bottleneck and advancing in cultivation?" Liu Chenfeng was stunned and then suddenly realized: "If this is the case, Uncle Li will not be able to distract himself from contacting us, nor will he be able to get together with us."

Everyone nodded. They were all monks who had personally experienced the bottleneck of the spiritual body period. They knew that they should not be distracted at this critical moment. At this time, Li Muran refused to hear their voice transmission and did not ask or respond to them.

Liu Chenfeng said: "So, at the time of the incident, Uncle Li was in seclusion here and hit the bottleneck of his martial arts. It was impossible to fight with others, nor could he kill Junior Brother Ninth."

Nie Xin and others nodded: "It's true that it's Uncle Li."

However, for more than two hundred years, there were only ten of them in this sealed space. Now one person died, and the other nine people seemed to have no time to kill the nine disciples.

After pondering for a while, Hua Yuncong suddenly said, "There are two possibilities for killing Junior Brother Ninth. One is that the murderer is one of us. He killed Junior Brother Ninth by using the clone method, and then the master body gathers here, and he will be able to know without knowing it."

Liu Chenfeng shook his head: "We have not practiced the clone technique and cannot do it."

"This is not necessarily true," Nie Xin said: "The clone technique is not very difficult to practice. If someone practices quietly in the past two hundred years, he can also practice this technique.

Everyone nodded. What Nie Xin said was not without reason. They were all high-level cultivators in the spiritual body stage, so they naturally had the ability to cultivate a good clone within decades. If they took advantage of the care of Junior Ninth, they would indeed be possible to use clones to kill them.

Liu Chenfeng shook his head slightly and said, "Liu still thinks this possibility is not great. Fourth Junior Brother, what else is there to say just now?"

Hua Yuncong said: "There is another possibility, that is, there are other people in this sealed land."

"What?" Nie Xin was shocked: "There are other people here? This is impossible. I have searched this place a long time ago. There are no other cultivators in the figures, even the powerful monsters and monsters, have almost been killed by us."

Hua Yuncong said: "I didn't believe there were other people at first, but just two or three hours ago, I discovered that the formation that monitored the power of the space seal was slightly changed. This change lasted for half a stick of incense and then returned to normal."

"At that time, I thought that the monitoring array was only affected by some external forces and had a brief deviation, which was very normal. But now I think about it, maybe it means that the sealing power here has changed during that time period."

"The power of the seal has changed. What does this mean?" Nie Xin asked.

Hua Yuncong said: "It means that someone might break some of the sealing power and enter this sealing space."

"Someone entered here?" All the disciples were shocked.

Liu Chenfeng murmured: "Those who are capable of entering here must be extremely strong, either with extremely strong personal strength or a large number. If Junior Brother Ninth unfortunately bumped into these people, they might indeed be killed and silenced by them."

Everyone felt a chill in their hearts, and they couldn't help but feel in danger. If this is true, the monks who broke into this place were their enemies and very powerful enemies. Since these outsiders could kill Junior Brother Ninth, they could naturally kill them.

"Let me protect the Dharma here for Uncle Li, wait until Uncle Li successfully advances, and we will discuss major events together," said Liu Chenfeng.

"Yes" all the disciples agreed.

If only a few of them were in this sealed space, they would fight each other and even cause civil strife. But now they may face a common powerful enemy, and they will naturally hold together and form a force, so that the possibility of survival will be greater.

Everyone floated aside and looked at the strange clouds in the sky from afar.

"Is Master Li really in the advanced spiritual body stage?" Fang Tianao was still skeptical. He said: "From the celestial phenomena, it is indeed very similar. However, the so-called spiritual body is to incorporate a large amount of spiritual energy and pure spiritual thoughts into the sacrifice of the soul, and to form a second magic body outside the body, so a huge spiritual cloud will be gathered. However, this is not a spiritual cloud at all, but a mixed energy. How can it condense into a spiritual body?"

Many disciples agree with Fang Tianao's statement, because it is very important to condense the true body, which is to mobilize the total amount and purity of the spiritual energy. The total amount must meet the requirements to condense the spiritual body, and the spiritual energy must be extremely compressed and tempered to be extremely pure in order to gather the spiritual body without dispersing. However, the clouds gathered by Li Muran are mixed with spiritual energy and demonic energy, and cannot be described as "pure". This kind of vitality cannot condense the spiritual body at all.

"I also think Uncle Li is not in the advanced spiritual body stage." Liu Chenfeng said.

"No? Then why did the eldest brother just say that Uncle Li is advancing and asked me to protect him here?" Fang Tianao asked in a daze.

Liu Chenfeng smiled slightly: "I haven't finished speaking. I do mean that Uncle Li is not in the advanced spiritual body stage, but Uncle Li is indeed breaking through and advancing."

Fang Tianao was even more puzzled: "Uncle Li was in the late stage of the Yuanshen before. If he didn't advance to the spiritual body stage, what level would he advance to? Ah, is it the corresponding demon body stage of the demon cultivator?"

Liu Chenfeng shook his head: "It's not a spiritual body, nor a demon body, but a rumored combination of spirit and demons."

"The combination of spirit and demons?" All the disciples were shocked.
