"Yi Min!?"

Turning around to see who had helped him block the attack of the demonic cultivator, Xuan Hao could not help feeling shocked upon realizing that the person who had helped him was none other than Yi Min.

After he had contacted her and asked for her help, Xuan Hao had expected that she would just be waiting around the edge of her Iron Sky Kingdom. Not wanting to leave her kingdom in fear of not only the two demonic cultivators and demon beast ganging up on her, but also due to the fact that some of her enemies might take advantage of the situation to attack her kingdom in case she was locked in battle with the two demonic cultivators and the rabbit demon beast!

"Yes, it's me!"

Smiling proudly while saying this upon seeing the surprised expression on Xuan Hao's face, Yi Min felt that it had been a good idea for her to come and help him. Even if she risked one of her enemies taking advantage of her absence to attack her kingdom, Yi Min was confident that her fully operational formation would be more than enough to hold anyone daring enough to attack her kingdom back. Even without her present to control it!

Not to mention, given the situation she had found Xuan Hao in, there was a chance that he would never have been able to reach her Iron Sky Kingdom before being forced to fight it out with the two demonic cultivators and the rabbit demon beast-

Wait Rabbit demon beast!? Isn't it the same demon beast from back then? To think it's still alive

Suddenly realizing that the rabbit demon beast was the same demon beast she had seen back when she had first seen the Transcendent Grade Spiritual Herb, Yi Min could not help frowning slightly upon remembering how she had barely managed to escape alive from it back when she was still in the Nascent Soul Realm.

Back then, she had wandered the Frozen Wasteland looking for an opportunity to breakthrough to the Domain Lord Realm and had chanced upon the lair of the rabbit demon beast that had just recently reached the Domain Lord Realm. Only after sacrificing almost all of her artifacts did she managed to escape. However, the loss of so many precious artifacts had taken her a long time to recover from

Not to mention the rabbit demon beast, it was also back then that she first encountered the demonic cultivators from the Frost Devil Sect-

"Yi Min, we have to go before they catch up!"

"Y-yeah, let's get going."

Hearing the voice of Xuan Hao beside her all of a sudden, Yi Min quickly realized that she had spaced out for a short moment thinking about her past as she answered him before both of them began making their way towards the Iron Sky Kingdom.

This time around, it was much easier to deal with the attacks sent towards both of them by the demon beast and demonic cultivator called Black Hand. Mainly due to the fact that Yi Min threw out all kinds of artifacts to easily deal with their attacks without having to slow down. Never revealing her cultivation realm during the entire ordeal.

ROOOAR!

"To think he got the help of a blacksmith We can't let that bastard escape with the spiritual herb!"

Of course, neither Black Hand nor the rabbit demon beast were happy about this development, as they came to some sort of understanding before starting to work together to catch up with Xuan Hao and Yi Min without attacking each other.

Whoosh-!

Using his secret blood techniques on the rabbit demon beast, Black Hand slowed down, while the speed of the rabbit demon beast once again increased. Reaching an unprecedented level.

"Looks like we won't be able to outrun them like this" Muttering this to herself as she saw the rabbit demon beast rapidly approaching them, Yi Min took out a disc shaped artifact before jumping on top of it. Making sure not to reveal her cultivation base as she soon turned to look towards Xuan Hao beside her.

Swish~

Understanding what she wanted to do, Xuan Hao jumped on top of the disc shaped artifact before it flew into the distance, barely fast enough to stop the rabbit demon beast from catching up to them immediately.

However, this was more than enough time, as they soon reached the border of the Iron Sky Kingdom.

Swoosh-!

Flying past the large towers surrounding the border and successfully entering the formation!

"Ah!?" Letting out a surprised scream after entering the Iron Sky Kingdom, Yi Min showed a panicked expression as the disc beneath her, and Xuan Hao suddenly seemed to lose power as it fell to the ground.

Not understanding what was happening, Xuan Hao soon narrowed his eyes before deciding to play along with whatever Yi Min was up to, as he showed a similarly panicked expression while looking down towards the now destroyed disc that had fallen to the ground beneath them.

"Oh no! The disc thingy!" Of course His acting was nowhere near as good

ROOOOAR!

Not even a few seconds later, the rabbit demon beast appeared behind them roaring angrily filled with killing intent before rushing past the large towers on the border. Not realizing the fact that there was a formation directly in front of it, as it remained focused on Xuan Hao who had stolen its Transcendent Grade Spiritual Herb!

However, it still came to a stop a short distance away from Yi Min and Xuan Hao and began to examine them with its divine sense after seeing their panicked expressions and the fact that the disc they had used to escape had run out of energy and had fallen to the ground below.

"Haha! Not running anymore?"

"Looks like the artifact beneath that woman is only useful for a short period of time"

Arriving a short time after the rabbit demon beast, the two demonic cultivators similarly flew past the large towers located on the border before entering the Iron Sky Kingdom.

Both easily realizing what had happened.

""

In the end, the reason was not wrong, as Yi Min had deliberately sabotaged the artifact beneath her to make it look like it had been rendered useless.

The reason why she did this was simple, as she wanted to lower the guards of the rabbit demon beast and the two demonic cultivators enough for them to enter the Iron Sky Kingdom without inspecting the towers on the border too closely with their divine sense.

After all, if they really did use some time to properly inspect the towers on the border, it would not take long for them to realize that there was a massive formation directly in front of them.

At that point in time, there was close to no chance that the demon beast or the two demonic cultivators would dare entering the Iron Sky Kingdom. Especially considering the fact that they would have realized to some degree just how strong the formation was

If that happened, they would most likely just end up escaping back to the Frozen Wasteland. Knowing that they would have no chance of breaking through the formation before the people from the Sky Empire showed up.

However, things were different now that she had managed to get all three of them to willingly enter her formation

At this point, there was no way she was going to let the three of them escape alive. Especially the rabbit demon beast and the sect master of the Frost Devil Sect whom she already had a grudge with

Thinking about this, Yi Min could not help smiling happily while she looked towards the two demonic cultivators and the rabbit demon beast.

"Hm? Why are you smiling all of a-"

Rumble~

Having spotted the weird smile that suddenly appeared on Yi Min's face the sect master of the Frost Devil Sect did not have enough time to finish his sentence before he suddenly felt tremor coming from the ground beneath him.

"What in the-"

Similar to the sect master of the Frost Devil Sect, Black Hand also realized something was wrong.

Bzzz~

However, before he could retreat, the towers on the borders of the Iron Sky Kingdom suddenly lit up as they were covered in several ancient looking symbols.

Whoosh~!

Following which several thin lines of light connected the towers together before the ground beneath them were covered in similar looking ancient symbols spread across the entire Iron Sky Kingdom.

"This is A formation!?" Realizing that he was inside a massive formation and coupled together with the odd smile Yi Min gave them, Black Hand quickly realized that he had fallen into a trap.

Not only that, but he, the sect master of the Frost Devil Sect and the rabbit demon beast also very quickly realized that the formation was not something that they would be able to easily escape from, as the aura of several different Transcendent Grade Spiritual Herbs and Natural Treasures could be felt throughout the formation the next moment.
