Just as the Blade Master, old Wang, Zhan Yunyi, and the Evil Monarch were seated in meditation to recover from their injuries, Shang Sheng and Du Tianyang, whose injuries were lighter, climbed up that Stone Mountain to bring down Yao Wumeng, previously taken up there by the Five Demon Gods. However, when they reached the protruding part of the stone mountain, they discovered that not a single person was there. After a thorough search, they indeed could not find Yao Wumeng. It seemed that Yao Wumeng had awakened during the battle among the ten and had swiftly escaped; it was now impossible to determine when he had escaped or where he had gone. Even if they had wanted to pursue him, there was no way to do so.
The two jumped down and spoke of Yao Wumeng's disappearance to the Evil Monarch who, to their surprise, seemed quite astonished. However, he didn't say much; instead, he took a golden elixir from Zhan Yunyi and focused on refining the azure flame with great effort.
