Soon, the members of the demon race started trickling in one by one.
Tension was rife, as both humans and demons, occasionally threw each other looks filled with hatred and disdain. They were barely able to keep it together as they tried to refrain from a full blown conflict.
There was no infinite aura inside the palace. So, everyone unleashed their spiritual sense to check out the depth of the palace.
Surprisingly, all of it returned empty.
In whichever direction they sent their spiritual sense, all they were able to detect was endless fog.
"There seems to be an array that has been set up here. It isolates our spiritual sense. We are not going to detect anything with our spiritual sense in this place.
We will have to check out this palace ourselves,"
Wallace said. His voice was filled frustration as all his attempts to check out the palace with spiritual sense failed.
Wallace was the best cultivator among them, yet he had not been able to detect anything with his spiritual sense.
A dozen human cultivators, who were led by Wallace, proceeded ahead into the palace with caution.
The same thing happened to the demon race. When they sent out their demonic spiritual soul to scan the place, it came back empty too. So, they took another direction and proceeded towards the inner section of the palace.
There appeared to be nothing but endless white fog inside the palace.
Moments passed as they kept walking in slowly.
Wallace, who was leading the group, suddenly grew rigid. It seemed as if he sensed something looming in the darkness.
"Everyone look out! Something is coming."
Wallace warned the other cultivators quickly.
Even before he could finish his sentence, a dozen figures came up from nowhere and began approaching them slowly. It took time to register their existence due to the cover of white fog.
"What is this?
Is it possible that there could be someone else in the palace?"
someone asked, fear evident in his voice.
Whoosh!
Suddenly these figures increased their speed and charged towards the cultivators. Without uttering any word, they launched waves of energy blasts upon the humans.
Everyone was shocked to see those figures. They appeared like humanoids yet their bodies were all in a blur, especially their faces, which were covered by the thick, white fog.
And the power exuded by the weakest of these figures was equal to that of the cultivators of the Heaven Realm while the strongest was at about the same level as the cultivators of the Semi-holy Realm.
"What the hell are these things?"
someone shouted in horror.
Those figures looked like humans yet the power they had indicated otherwise.
Boom!
A dozen human cultivators struck back in defense.
Luckily, all those who came in the palace, were all powerful and they blasted these figures into pieces within seconds.
As Austin and the queen were at the back of the group, they got no chance to strike those figures.
After those figures were turned to pieces, everyone sensed a familiar aura all around.
It was the infinite aura!
"Shit! I know what these figures are!"
a human cultivator shouted aloud in fear!
His voice shook which made everyone guess that he had thought of something horrifying. It looked like he was too terrified to even take its name. It took him a few moments to tell everyone.
"Hollow slave!
Those are hollow slaves!"
His voice was filled with fear.
"You are right!
They must be the hollow slaves!
Those things that attacked us are really hollow slaves! They turned into the infinite aura right just after they were reduced to powder
It looks like they were made up of the infinite aura!"
Wallace grew solemn and uttered his conclusion slowly. There was fear in his eyes.
