Zhao Qianyuan’s dragon spear was like lightning. As he struck down a pack of monster tree puppet soldiers he turned around and saw the people who had gone insane. A dignified expression came across his face.

“Demonic energy invading the mind!”

This small world was overflowing with demonic energy. But, cultivators couldn’t directly absorb it and refine it, otherwise the demonic energy would eat away at their intelligence until they eventually degenerated into demonic creatures that knew nothing but slaughter.

But everyone knew this. As long as a person had the qualifications to enter the Demonic Ascension Gate, they would be repeatedly cautioned of it. So, why would these people be overcome by demonic energy?

As Zhao Qianyuan frowned in thought, Xu Guzi fluttered down beside him like a falling leaf. “Scion Zhao, these people have gone mad with demonic energy!”

His expression revealed shock, but also a little excitement.

These people that had gone mad with demonic energy would lose their intelligence. They were the perfect scapegoat to clear out a channel ahead for them.

Dong Hanzhu, Zhou Fenghuang, Li Mingxuan, and Mu Qingluan flew back. As for Sun Zifu who was generally protected within the group, he naturally fled faster...
