He did not continue his cultivation; having consumed the Immortal Origin Fruit to open up his Martial Meridians, he needed to settle down and allow his body to adapt to its current condition.
"I mustn't rush this!"
Therefore, he left the cave that very day, wanting to take a stroll outside.
An hour later, he saw innumerable Flying Mutant Beasts appear in the sky.
These beasts were a large flock of flying white horses, each with a Human Warrior mounted on its back.
Judging by the aura emanating from these Flying Mutant Beasts, Duan Gujin surmised that they were not local Demon Beasts but rather Spiritual Beasts raised by Human Warriors.
He gazed into the skies and noticed at least ten Flying Mutant Beasts up above.
"Why are there so many Flying Mutant Beasts here, and where are they going?"
The Flying Mutant Beasts moved with incredible velocity and soon vanished before his eyes.
His brow creased slightly; he had been tempted to follow and join the excitement.
But he feared the Demon Saint might be nearby, and dared not to take the risk lightly.
He was acutely aware that the Demon Saint, who had come after him for stealing the Immortal Origin Fruit, must despise him to the core.
At first, Duan Gujin thought that having more than ten Flying Mutant Beasts soar past him was impressive enough.
However, he soon saw a vast multitude of Flying Mutant Beasts galloping overhead like wild horses, whizzing past him towards the direction where the initial ten had flown.
He extended his Divine Sense, swiftly detecting that this time at least fifty Flying Mutant Beasts had flown by.
"Should I go and check out the commotion?"
After pondering for a while, he decided against going to see the action.
"If I'm not mistaken, those Human Warriors riding the Flying Mutant Beasts must have a minimum Cultivation of the Martial Emperor Realm; only Martial Artists of the Martial Emperor Realm could control those beasts!"
Duan Gujin rapidly reviewed the names of some Major Sects in the Jiuzhou Continent in his mind, and he eventually thought of one.
"Could it be that the Flying Mutant Beasts and the Human Warriors I saw are from the Spirit-controlling Immortal Sect? In the Jiuzhou Continent, the Spirit-controlling Immortal Sect and the Blood Killing Sect are both Second-class Sects."
He sent his Divine Sense out, scanning the surroundings, but after a while, he still couldn't detect any traces of the Demon Saint's aura nearby.
"Good, the Demon Saint isn't here. I am still safe!"
Duan Gujin then wandered around the vicinity, hoping to find more of the Blood Evil Mother Spirit.
But after searching for two days, he came up empty-handed.
Having no other choice, he returned to the cave where he had stayed before and decided to cultivate with the Blood Evil Mother Spirit.
Duan Gujin had intended to enter seclusion right away to cultivate and attempt a breakthrough as soon as possible.
However, less than 15 minutes had passed when he heard a shrill scream resounding from the sky.
His brow furrowed slightly, and after sending his Divine Sense out to ensure there were no dangers around, he left the cave.
As he emerged from the cave, he saw a huge cloud of fiery red flames burning fiercely in the sky.
"Good heavens! That's the Undying Demon Cloud!"
Seeing the Undying Demon Cloud, Duan Gujin gasped in shock.
Undying Demon Cloud wasn't a natural weather phenomenon but a form of Demonic Power that could only be unleashed by living creatures above the Martial Saint Realm.
The essence of the Undying Demon Cloud is a substance floating in the starry sky, filled with potent Demonic Power within.
This kind of Demonic Power is not suitable for cultivation, for it is a power of destruction.
Duan Gujin ceased his cultivation when he saw the appearance of the Undying Demon Cloud, fearing that the cave he was in would be engulfed by it.
The Undying Demon Cloud possesses terrifying Demonic Power, which could devour any living creature that enters it.
"I still have to leave this place!" he thought.
Duan Gujin had originally believed he could continue to cultivate quietly here, but he had not expected that such a terrifying demon, the Undying Demon Cloud, would appear in the sky.
Moments later, he saw at least a hundred Flying Mutant Beasts speeding away in the opposite direction of the Undying Demon Cloud.
He could tell that these Flying Spiritual Beasts were trying to avoid the Undying Demon Cloud in the sky, fearful of being touched by it.
Moments later, he saw a Flying Spiritual Beast get touched by the Undying Demon Cloud's intense fire, and its entire body burst into flames instantaneously.
In less than ten breaths, the Flying Spiritual Beast was reduced to ashes.
Witnessing this, he gasped sharply, now certain that what he saw was indeed the Undying Demon Cloud.
The strength of those Flying Spiritual Beasts was not weak; they had at least the power of the Martial Sect Realm.
Yet, once they encountered the Undying Demon Cloud, their bodies would burn like paper when touching the flames inside the cloud, as if ignited by kerosene, with no means of stopping it.
With a flash in his eyes, Duan Gujin transformed into a streak of light, rapidly fleeing from the place, not wanting his body to be touched by the flames within the Undying Demon Cloud.
As Duan Gujin initiated his rapid escape, he saw various Demon Beasts along the way sprinting away from the direction of the Undying Demon Cloud.
Although these Demon Beasts did not know what the thing that could cover half the sky was, they could sense it was a terrifying existence, and they had to flee for their lives.
"Boom! Boom!"
The Undying Demon Cloud was speeding towards Duan Gujin's location, and although it was not as fast as Duan Gujin, it blew down many trees like a hurricane.
Moments later, countless black Fire Dragons were roiling and roaring within the clouds.
Every roar of those Black Dragons would cause the nearby living creatures to shudder in horror and fear.
As Duan Gujin listened to the roars of the Black Dragons, his complexion turned pale, and his heart started to beat violently.
"Those Black Dragons' roars have a Divine Soul Attack!"
He hurriedly circulated his Primordial Power, striving to calm himself.
Moments later, a golden protective Light Shield formed both inside and outside his Divine Soul, shielding him from the roars of the Black Dragons.
Duan Gujin could circulate his Primordial Power to protect his Divine Soul from Divine Soul Attacks, but the nearby Demon Beasts were not so fortunate. Terrified by the roars of the Black Dragons, they wet themselves in fear, their legs trembling and unable to move.
Even the birds were grounded by fear, unable to continue flying.
"What's going on here?"
Duan Gujin was eager to know what had happened ahead, and as he extended his Divine Sense, he quickly spotted a gravely injured Martial Artist.
Next to the Martial Artist was a Flying Spiritual Beast, which had a White Bone shockingly exposed on its back.
Clearly, the Flying Spiritual Beast was also grievously injured.
Duan Gujin could not stand idly by; in a flash, he turned into a streak of light, rushing forward swiftly.
