Before Shen Qing could come up with a solution, Lin Yibai started chanting incantations again.
She slightly raised her fingers and murmured the ancient incantations of the Demon Realm in a low voice.
The demonic qi seeped into the ground at a visible speed. Immediately afterwards, the ground began to tremble.
You Lang clearly felt that the aura of the creature in the cave was awakening. His heart tightened, and he instantly transformed back into his original form, the Netherworld White Wolf.
In his white - wolf form, You Lang was five or six times larger than his dog form. In Shen Qing's eyes, You Lang at this moment was like a small flying boat.
Just like in his dog form, You Lang was still snow - white all over, with beautiful fur and deep blue eyes. He looked extremely majestic.
"Hey! So you're really a wolf!"
Seeing You Lang transform, Shen Qing exclaimed.
You Lang rolled his eyes at Shen Qing speechlessly. His sharp eyes were filled with helplessness.
Qing Qing also couldn't help but smile.
Sure enough, it was Shen Qing. Even at this critical moment, she could still crack a joke.
"Stop joking around," You Lang's voice became much deeper in his white - wolf form. "The demonic qi on her body has attracted the things hidden in the cave and underground. If they wake up, we'll be in big trouble."
"What's underground? Could it be demonic beasts?"
"Tsk! Shen Qing!!"
Although Shen Qing was right this time, You Lang was still speechless. Couldn't she just get used to her own abilities?
If there weren't any demonic beasts underground, her words might just summon them.
Shen Qing covered her mouth in annoyance and sighed repeatedly.
Why couldn't she remember? Her mouth was just like a jinx now.
After a strong tremor, the ground cracked.
The three of them dodged the cracks on the ground. The cracks were wide and dark. If they fell in, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Rise!"
Lin Yibai raised both hands. Countless stone pillars shot out from the cracks. If they were a bit careless, they would be hit by the stiff and thick stone pillars.
If one wasn't a body - cultivator, a single hit would be enough to cause internal injuries to a cultivator.
You Lang was still carrying Li Xian on his back. While dodging, he was afraid that Li Xian would fall off, so he simply turned back and bit Li Xian's calf.
Now he definitely wouldn't fall off, right?
Before You Lang could feel proud for long, Lin Yibai launched her next wave of attacks.
Countless raindrops fell from the sky. These raindrops were special and corrosive. When they landed on Shen Qing and the others, they felt a stabbing pain wherever the raindrops touched.
The shield summoned by Shen Qing couldn't withstand the attack of the rain. You Lang had no choice but to protect the two of them under his body.
Some cultivators near this area in the dense forest were also affected by this strange rain.
"This woman is really strange. Not only does she have a strong demonic qi, but how can she use spells of the earth, wind, and water spiritual roots all at once?"
"Even the great experts in the Fusion Stage are only rumored to be able to use spells of two spiritual roots."
You Lang sneered and said in a deep voice, "Strange? There are plenty of strange people in the Demon Realm. They practice evil arts and absorb the essence and souls of countless people. It's not impossible that they've changed themselves in this way."
"After all, you're still too young. You'll get used to it after seeing more."
Seeing that You Lang was explaining while also showing off, Shen Qing reached out and rubbed the soft fur on You Lang's belly.
But her strength was too small, and You Lang didn't feel it.
Qing Qing sighed with a smile, defeated by Shen Qing's calmness.
It wasn't that Shen Qing wasn't nervous. After experiencing death in her previous life, she had become a bit numb to such critical moments.
The more nervous she was, the harder it was for her to think. So, why not relax and deal with the situation as it came?
She had just tried to use her ability of "words turning into law" against Lin Yibai, but it had no effect.
Here, she couldn't rely on this ability.
Then, You Lang seemed to sense something. He frowned and turned to look at the cave.
"Be careful, you two. A big guy is about to come out."
Suddenly, there was a tremor in the cave as if something was breaking out of the ground.
It seemed that there was also something moving underground, and the cracks on the ground were getting more and more.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
A huge and strangely - ugly beast poked its head out of the cave. It was extremely powerful, and the originally narrow cave entrance was knocked open by it.
The whole mountain trembled because of this huge beast. Many tall trees fell due to the strong tremors.
Lin Yibai was floating in the air. Countless long and ugly hands grew out of the ground beneath her feet.
With the appearance of these huge beasts, a stench filled the air.
The huge beast let out an unpleasant sound. Seeing Shen Qing and the others right in front of it, it let out a furious roar.
"My god! What is this thing?"
You Lang's eyes darkened. He felt strange.
These demonic beasts had been in a deep sleep in the secret realm for tens of thousands of years. No matter how many waves of cultivators had entered, no one had been able to wake them up.
You Lang originally thought that after being affected by Luo Ling's spiritual power in the secret realm for so many years, they had already washed away their filthy demonic qi. But unexpectedly, they were still the same as they were ten thousand years ago.
"These are demonic beasts..."
Shen Qing was very close to the beast's head and could clearly see the tattered armor on the beast's head, with dark bloodstains on it.
"Demonic beasts? There are demonic beasts in the secret realm you created?!"
Qing Qing couldn't believe it. The suspicion in her eyes towards You Lang was almost palpable.
You Lang loudly explained, "Luo Ling's fall affected my mood at that time. I didn't care about all this. Once they were in, they were in. Anyway, they couldn't hurt me in the illusion!"
His confident look left Shen Qing and Qing Qing speechless.
Shen Qing thought for a moment and said, "The secret realm is too dangerous. Let's leave first. There aren't any resources here anyway."
They couldn't defeat Lin Yibai even if they joined forces. Even though You Lang had a high cultivation level, there were so many demonic beasts.
One person couldn't fight against so many. If they got out of the secret realm, the elders of the various sects should be able to suppress Lin Yibai.
You Lang looked at Shen Qing appreciatively. Why hadn't he thought of that just now?
If he let this demonic cultivator and the demonic beasts run amok in the secret realm, the secret realm would eventually collapse, and Luo Ling's spiritual qi would dissipate. He didn't want that to happen.
"You Lang, can you eject everyone in the secret realm, including these demonic beasts?"
You Lang nodded. "But I need time."
"How long?"
"One quarter of an hour."
Shen Qing was shocked. She turned her head and said very quickly, "You Lang has lifted the restrictions of the secret realm. Now we can contact the elders outside the secret realm. Please get in touch with the elders of the Green Wood Sect and ask them to clear the surrounding area."
After saying that, Shen Qing also took out her sound - transmitting talisman and sent a short message to Elder Yaoyue, explaining the situation.
One quarter of an hour wasn't enough time to prepare much, but it should be possible to set up a barrier around.
To eject everyone, You Lang needed to mobilize a large amount of spiritual power. Before long, blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.
"Shen Qing, I'm ready..."
