Under the exhaustive explanations of Miao Si, the several Sect Masters finally believed he had not tampered with the ancient scriptures.
Then, the four of them opened the scriptures and started to consult the records about this Secret Realm.
"The records say there is a malevolent entity in this Secret Realm that can kill cultivators, imprison their souls, and devour their spirits as sustenance, becoming even stronger."
"This entity is formed from countless resentments and hatreds. Ordinary methods have no effect on it, and it's unrealistic to think of completely annihilating it."
At this point, the four Sect Masters looked at each other in dismay, remembering the spectral giant they had seen in the Secret Realm earlier.
"If nothing else, the entity described in these ancient scriptures must be the same giant cloud of black mist we saw before," Miao Si said, still shaken.
