Xu Taiping replied：
”Before entering the wild, Miss Dongfang Yuejian once told me that the time to confirm that star map is on the first full moon day after the winter in the Dry Stone Sea of Jueling Tian.”
”That is, half a year after that time.”
”And as of today, we have been in this wild heaven for nearly a year.”
”The competition for the star map in the Dry Stone Sea is probably already over.”
After hearing this, Liantong was also very confused and said：
“It shouldn’t be. Such an obvious fallacy, how could the Great Deduction Power possibly make it？”
And just when both of them had confused expressions on their faces.
The scene within the soul imprint of the golden lotus suddenly changed again.
This time, the background of the scene turned into howling wind and flying sand, and cultivators who were fleeing in horror.
Just when Xu Taiping was curious about why these cultivators were fleeing in all directions, a huge Yin Demon Beast like a small mountain suddenly rushed out from the sand and swallowed four or five fleeing cultivators in one gulp.
This conspiracy beast, shaped like a sand worm, with a mouthful of fangs, the spells and supernatural powers of ordinary cultivators simply couldn’t harm it.
In just a moment, more than a dozen cultivators were buried in the belly of the Yin Demon Sand Worm.
Just when Xu Taiping was very curious about why there were so many Yin Demon Beasts here and why these Yin Demon Beasts were chasing and killing these cultivators.
A familiar figure entered Xu Taiping’s line of sight.
Xu Taiping said in great surprise：
“Why is Miss Xiahou also here？”
That’s right, this person was precisely Xiahou You.
Just when Xu Taiping was filled with surprise, he heard Xiahou You say to Xiahou Qingyuan beside her：
“Second Brother, we’ve all been tricked. The Demon Emperor Octopus had already set up a great formation and summoned so many Yin Demon Sand Worms several months before the arrival of the Star Gazing Day.”
“Even these Yin Demon Sandworms were specifically prepared for us cultivators, able to withstand the spells and supernatural powers of the vast majority of cultivators here.”
“And judging from the fact that every time he kills a cultivator, he will surely destroy the star map stone in their hands. It seems that this Demon Emperor Octopus wants to monopolize the celestial palace star map of that star monarch.”
Xiahou Qingyuan said with a solemn frown：
“This is really a mantis stalking a cicada, only to be followed by a oriole.”
Xiahou You frowned and muttered at this time：
“Originally, I just wanted to see if the wild entrance near here had been sealed, but I didn’t expect to be trapped in the Yellow Wind Great Formation of this Demon Emperor Octopus.”
“I don’t know how Young Master Taiping is doing in the wild now.”
After hearing this, Xu Taiping frowned and said：
“So, the scene in this picture also happened after I entered the Wild Heaven？”
For a while, Xu Taiping became even more confused and didn’t know why the power of the Great Deduction would make him watch this scene that had already happened again.”
And at this moment, accompanied by a loud “boom” sound, six huge andworms suddenly appeared around Xiahou You and Xiahou Qingyuan.
At the same time, on the heads of those six sandworms, six powerful demonic cultivators were standing.
Then, only the demonic cultivator who was facing the two siblings said coldly：
“I didn’t expect to catch two big fish！”
Xiahou Qingyuan drew his sword out with a “swish” and said coldly：
The Demon Emperor Octopus, it’s just in time.
Immediately, Xiahou Qingyuan and Xiahou You engaged in a fierce battle with the Demon Emperor Octopus and the six Yin Demon Sandworms.
Although the cultivation and combat power of Xiahou You and Xiahou Qingyuan were extremely astonishing, but there was no way to deal with the increasing number of Yin Demon Sandworms. The two siblings were quickly pushed to a desperate situation.
Xu Taiping immediately frowned and said：
Could it be that Liantong is trying to tell me that Xiahou You and Xiahou Qingyuan died in the ambush of the Demon Emperor Octopus.
He, who had been in the wild, didn’t know the situation outside and had no time to inquire about the situation of the two siblings.
Boom！
Just as he was feeling a bit heavy in his heart, accompanied by a deafening breaking wind sound, a gorgeous saber light suddenly broke through the sky full of yellow sand above the heads of Xiahou You and her brother and slashed at the sandworm that was about to swallow Xiahou You in one gulp.
Swish！
In the ear-piercing breaking wind sound, that saber light actually cut that sandworm in half with one strike.
Just when Xu Taiping was curious about who exactly this saber strike that saved the two siblings came from, the figure that appeared in the picture made him freeze on the spot.
After a long time, he murmured：
Xiaoyu？
That’s right. The saber cultivator who killed a Yin Demon Sandworm with a single strike is none other than Duan Xiaoyu of the Heavenly Saber Sect.
And it’s not just Duan Xiaoyu.
A year ago in Yangqian City, the four young cultivators from Xuanghuang Heaven who had once helped him also joined the battle after Duan Xiaoyu.
Looking at Duan Xiaoyu fighting side by side with Xiahou You and her brother, and the four brothers from Xuanghuang Heaven, Xu Taiping said in great surprise：
Why are Xiaoyu and these four little brothers from Xuanghuang Heaven here？
And the next words of Duan Xiaoyu in the soul mark picture undoubtedly answered Xu Taiping’s question：
Miss Xiahou, I heard that there is another entrance to the wild in the west of this desert. Is it true?
After hearing this, Xu Taiping inexplicably felt a warmth in his heart, and then smiled helplessly and said:
This silly girl.
But soon, the picture shown in this soul mark once again made Xu Taiping’s heart tighten.
Because as the Demon Emperor Octopus exerts ed his source magic seed power the few people who were originally about to break through were not only surrounded again.
Among them, the main combat force, Xiahou Qingyuan, was even dragged into the underground of the sand by the Demon Emperor Octopus.
Then, in just a short moment, Xiahou You, Duan Xiaoyu and others were forced into a desperate situation by dozens of Yin Demon Sandworms and five Demon Lord-level demonic cultivators.
The four younger brothers from Xuanhuangtian, who had slightly weaker combat power, were successively severely injured and fell to the ground, and their life and death were unknown.
Seeing that Xiahou You and Duan Xiaoyu were gradually losing, the tightly wound string in Xu Taiping’s heart became tighter and tighter.
He took a deep breath and murmured：
Could it be that during the period when I was trapped in the wild, Miss Xiahou and Xiaoyu and the others really all died here？
Xu Taiping was somewhat reluctant to believe it.
Boom！
At this time, the Demon Emperor Octopus that trapped Xiahou Qingyuan underground suddenly broke through the ground while sitting on the back of the Yin Demon Sand Worm.
And almost at the same time, the Demon Emperor Octopus suddenly grabbed Duan Xiaoyu in front with one claw.
Bang！
The black claw shadow as deep as the fissure of the abyss easily tore apart Duan Xiaoyu’s protective saber energy with just one blow. The momentum was so fierce that it seemed that the next moment, Duan Xiaoyu would be torn to pieces.
Seeing this scene, Xu Taiping suddenly clenched his fists, and a monstrous anger surged in his heart.
Zheng！ …
But at this critical moment, accompanied by a shrill saber chirping sound, another dazzling saber light descended from the sky.
Boom！
Amid the ear-piercing sound of the saber qi cutting through the air, one of the arms of the Demon Emperor Octopus was actually severed by this saber light.
Xu Taiping was first stunned, and then his eyes widened, and he said in disbelief,
“Why would I be there？！”
That’s right, the person who severed the arm of the Demon Emperor Octopus was Xu Taiping himself.
Although the figure in the picture had changed its appearance, how could it deceive Xu Taiping himself？
Just as Xu Taiping was still dumbfounded, the picture of the soul imprint suddenly changed again.
And in this picture this time.
Xu Taiping clearly saw that he killed the Demon Emperor Octopus and picked up a luminous stone engraved with star patterns from the ground.
After a brief moment of stunnedness, Xu Taiping and Lian Tong almost said in unison：
“Kill the enemy in the long river of time and space！”
As he spoke, there was a “zheng” sound. The Kunwu Sword that had been hidden by Xu Taiping in the iron gourd for a long time seemed to sense what was in Xu Taiping’s mind and suddenly flew out and stopped in front of Xu Taiping by itself.
