After piling up the rubbles, Caspian broke another stalactite nearby.
Then, he cut into the shape of a tombstone and erected it in front of the simple tomb.
He hesitated for a moment, but he decided not to write their identities of the two in the tomb.
Caspian took a deep breath.
“Half of them escaped, and we didn’t manage to settle everyone.” Maya glanced at the tomb and shrugged at Caspian.
Naturally, she referred to the remaining group of Ninth Sacred Sect’s disciples.
The group of Ninth Sacred Sect’s disciples fought with the monster with wisdom, and they were already mentally strained and physically exhausted.
At that time, there was nothing else they could do besides run away when faced with such an attack.
Luckily for them, the Hopeful Woman Mountain’s terrain was complicated, and it was suitable for them to escape.
As half of the Ninth Sacred Sect’s disciples were slaughtered by the Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciples, the remaining half quickly entered the surrounding caves that led to everywhere, and soon, they disappeared.
For safety concerns, Omar and Maya, who were in charge of commanding the disciples, did not let the chase after the Ninth Sacred Sect’s disciples.
Instead, they remained at their original spot and sorted out the spoils.
“Where’s the monster with wisdom?” Caspian asked.
“When we rushed over, the Ninth Sacred Sect’s completely abandoned the monster and let it escape into one of the caves,” Maya explained, “They were also using formations to trap the monster before this.”
“Remember to be extra careful.
After all, that’s a monster with wisdom, and it won’t be easy for us to go against it,” Caspian reminded.
“Definitely,” Maya answered and nodded, “Omar ordered everyone not to leave at will and wander around.
He also asked me to call you over.”
Caspian nodded and turned to glance at the lonely tomb.
Then, he followed Maya and Solana toward the location where the Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciples gathered.
Even though half of the Ninth Sacred Sect’s disciples were slaughtered, Omar and the others did not appear relaxed.
The reason was simple, the monster with wisdom escaped.
A monster with intelligence and strength comparable to a Holy Land Realm cultivator was a massive threat to everyone present.
Although the monster’s force dropped drastically as it was pregnant, what would happen once it recovered?
Besides that, no one knew how long it would take for the monster to recover.
Thus, there were only two choices in front of them.
First, they could leave the Hopeful Woman Mountain for the sake of safety.
Then, they could report the appearance of the monster with wisdom to the sect and let the elders or senior-level disciples come over and slaughter it.
Second, they could be more aggressive and run after it.
Then, before the monster fully recovered its health, they would work together and slaughter the monster.
After comparing the two choices, Caspian asked everyone, “When I just entered the mountain, I came across a fantasy array.
Did any of you face the same problem?”
“Same here!”
“Me too!”
In that instant, everyone echoed what he said.
After asking around, Caspian immediately realized that the matter was just as he expected.
Anyone who entered the mountain would be trapped by the fantasy array.
However, only a few of them broke the formation themselves.
Instead, most of them trapped in the fantasy array waited until the array dispersed by itself before they left.
Based on everyone’s account, Caspian found out that the fantasy array did not last long, and almost shortly after everyone entered the mountain, the fantasy array disappeared.
