Chapter 321 In the Stone Tablet
After passing the people he had just met, Yang An quickly entered the range of the Earth Demon Cliff.
The Earth Demon Cliff is an extremely huge cliff, located in a mountain range, with steep and complex terrain.
The entire Earth Demon Cliff looks gloomy and foggy. In the dark night, visibility is very poor, and even affects perception to a certain extent, giving a sense of unreality.
However, Yang An could sense that a large number of demons would appear here on weekdays, because even if no demons were found here for the time being, there were still many demons' breath.
He was very familiar with the stench of demons, after all, it was very heady and disgusting.
Unable to get the information he wanted from the previous group of people, Yang An personally entered the Earth Demon Cliff to explore without finding anyone else.
Generally speaking, the deeper this kind of place is, the more dangerous it is, and the greater the chance of encountering demons with high cultivation.
So Yang An went directly to the depths of the Earth Demon Cliff and was not prepared to waste time on the periphery.
At the same time, he also noticed that the guys behind him were chasing him. Although he didn't know what they meant, Yang An didn't bother to pay attention.
Soon Yang An flew over a large jungle and entered the depths of the thick fog, and finally found the breath of the demon.
A strange-shaped stone with human-like limbs and webbed feet was scratching a big tree with its hands.
"Huh~ Cool... a little to the left... a little lower... yes, yes, that's it... hiss..."
The big tree in front of it was shaking, and the shadow of the tree was rolling up the thick fog, making a weird sound.
This scene was a bit eye-catching, until Yang An approached and fell from the sky. Seeing these two guys, they were still doing this weird thing regardless of anything, completely ignoring Yang An.
This situation surprised Yang An.
Monks and demons are generally in opposition. Once they meet, they will basically fight for no matter what the reason is, and they are incompatible.
This is the first time he has seen a demon see a monk and have no reaction.
Should I interrupt them? Wouldn't that be a bit presumptuous?
Yang An hesitated, but before he could speak, the strange stone that tickled the tree spoke first:
"Where did the monk come from? If you want to do something, don't hesitate. If you want to kill us, do it quickly. Why are you standing there?"
"That's right! Isn't this guy a rookie who comes here for the first time?"
The tree also echoed.
"..."
Are all the demons here so proactive?
Yang An looked at the two demons. Their cultivation aura was only that of the early stage of zombie gods, but they didn't show any fear. Instead, they urged him to act quickly.
As they spoke, the two demons looked at him at the same time, as if they understood something.
"Really a rookie?!"
At this point, the two demons suddenly became very excited.
Rumble--
At this moment, the earth suddenly trembled. As the ground shook, the soil flew up and a huge crack appeared under the tree.
Countless flesh and blood poured out from the cracks in the ground, condensing into a giant of more than ten meters.
It had a pair of huge scarlet eyes, no mouth or nose, and looked like a monster formed by countless flesh and blood. There were tree roots everywhere on its body, extending from various parts of its body and taking root underground.
At this time, Yang An realized that the stone and the big tree he had just seen were actually the two arms of this demon.
In other words, the giant in front of him was the body of the demon, and the two demons he had just seen were just this guy acting for his own amusement...
"Since you are a rookie, let me teach you the rules here!"
The monster raised its strange arms, as if it opened its heart to Yang An. Although no expression could be seen, it was very excited.
But just when Yang An thought it was going to take action, the next sentence caught Yang An off guard.
"Come! Kill me!"
"..."
Its voice seemed to have infinite echoes, and the big trees and stones on its arms were repeating its words.
It was really hard to imagine what these demons had gone through and why they were in such a mental state. Yang An didn't know what to say for a moment.
The demon was waiting for him to take action, with no intention of defending or escaping at all. This didn't look like a trap.
"Why do you want to kill you?"
Yang An asked in confusion.
"If you don't come to kill me, I'll come to kill you!"
It seemed that Yang An hadn't made any move for a long time, and the demon seemed a little impatient and said angrily.
"..."
"Wait! I came here to see the strongest demon here. If you want me to kill you, you have to tell me where it is first."
With the principle of fairness, since this guy was so eager to be killed, Yang An thought that he couldn't just kill him, so he said immediately.
Hearing Yang An's words, the demon was slightly shocked.
"Are you here for the Lord of Death? Are you from the Golden Soul Sect?"
Lord of Death? Is that the name of the great demon of the Li Dao?
Yang An shook his head.
"Since you are not from the Golden Soul Cult, then go east and go to the innermost part. The Lord of Death is there.
But before you go, you must kill me first. If you don't kill me, I won't let you pass so easily."
"..."
It was hard to imagine that this guy would tell the location of the big demon so easily. Yang An could not help but start to doubt whether what he said was true or false.
"Why are you still standing there? I hate you guys who are indecisive. If you want to do something, do it quickly! If you don't do it, I will do it."
The demon was already impatient and kept urging Yang An.
But the more this happened, the more Yang An felt that there might be a trick.
Looking at this guy, Yang An immediately gave up the idea of taking action. A flash of light disappeared in an instant and went to the direction the demon said.
Seeing Yang An suddenly disappear, the demon was so angry that he jumped up and down, waving the big tree and stone in his hand and smashing them on the ground in front of him.
Before it could react, Yang An ran away.
Damn it!
"If there is a fool coming in, stop him!"
The demon immediately roared to the surroundings, and the sound spread rapidly. In an instant, the entire Earth Demon Cliff was shaking, and countless hidden demons also appeared one after another.
At this moment, the group of people who had followed Yang An in from a distance also felt the riot in the Earth Demon Cliff. A large number of demons appeared, but no demon paid attention to them. They all chased in the direction of Yang An.
"What did he do?"
The disciples under the two zombie gods asked curiously. The Earth Demon Cliff was so powerful that so many demons rioted together, which made them feel terrified. This was the first time they saw so many demons.
"He is really a fool. He must abide by the rules of the Earth Demon Cliff after entering the Earth Demon Cliff. If he behaves like this, he may not be able to leave here."
A zombie god smiled disdainfully, and was glad that Yang An did not agree to go with them before.
So many demons, even they were scared when they saw them. It caused such a big commotion. That guy was looking for death.
Although these demons in the Earth Demon Cliff were very cooperative in the past, and there would not be too much risk for cultivators to come here for training, this was the first time they saw such a situation.
"He didn't attack the demons, did he?"
Another zombie god guessed.
"This is the rule in the Demon Cliff. If he breaks the taboo, I guarantee that he will never leave here alive!"
The zombie god who spoke first answered, and at the same time, he made a move, and an iron nail shot out from his hand, piercing a demon that had just appeared. The demon's flesh and blood withered in an instant, and turned into a pile of bones in two or three breaths. He then turned back to look at the disciples behind him.
"Remember, attack the demons you see here, and don't hold back.
The more you want to kill them, the less they will resist.
But if you have any hesitation, it will only make these demons angry and lose their minds. At that time, you will be miserable."
After saying that, he made a move, and a thumb-sized meat egg quickly flew out of the pile of bones that the demon he had just killed had turned into.
He crushed the meat egg, and a black viscous liquid immediately flowed out of it, just like ink.
The liquid evaporated into black mist in his hands and was inhaled from his mouth and nose. He immediately showed a look of transcendence on his face, as if he was enjoying it, and the whole person was a little ecstatic.
The disciples behind him were all watching his actions.
"This thing is called spiritual juice, which is a unique product of the demons in the Earth Demon Cliff. It is the same source as the magic power in our bodies.
As long as you kill the demons here, you can get the spiritual juice from them.
The spiritual juice can help you improve your cultivation. The price is just that you can't control your spiritual consciousness for a short time, which is harmless."
Hearing his explanation, the disciples behind him suddenly showed a look of sudden enlightenment, and they all became excited. They didn't expect that the Earth Demon Cliff would be such a blessed land.
On the other side.
Yang An was rushing towards the place that the demon just mentioned. Suddenly, there were countless movements around him, and at the same time, he sensed the breath of a large number of demons.
All kinds of strange demons rushed out from the surroundings and chased Yang An. There were demons of all levels of cultivation.
But just like before, none of these demons showed any intention to attack. Instead, they just used all kinds of dirty words to insult him, trying to force him to attack, and at the same time, they chased and intercepted him.
This place is too wrong! The mental state of these demons is also wrong.
The more this happened, the less Yang An wanted to attack, and the more he felt that this place was not simple. He could not help but speed up and use the light and shadow escape method with all his strength.
Soon, under the pursuit of a large number of demons, Yang An had unknowingly penetrated deep into the hinterland of the Earth Demon Cliff.
Although the number of demons here is very terrifying, no one can match Yang An's speed, and he can't catch up with him for a while.
A giant wolf with dozens of big heads and scales suddenly jumped out from under the ground and appeared in front of Yang An, as if expecting Yang An to hit it, preferably through its body.
But Yang An's reaction was very abnormal. Almost at the moment when the demon appeared, he immediately disappeared from the original place, and the giant wolf was so angry that it howled to the sky and chased Yang An again.
Yang An had encountered this situation countless times along the way, and he was already familiar with it.
The more active these demons were, the more cautious he became, and he didn't even intend to touch them.
After constantly dodging a large number of sudden demons, Yang An finally came to the place with the thickest fog in the Earth Demon Cliff.
The fog here is so thick that it is like water. The visibility is only in front of the eyes. You may not be able to see how many fingers you have when you stretch your hand out. You have to rely on perception to move.
When he approached here, he finally sensed a very powerful breath, far beyond the zombie god.
It is the 蝞道! The big demon of the 螞道 in the Earth Demon Cliff!
The demon he met before did not lie. This is the depth of the Earth Demon Cliff. The so-called dead master is here.
Yang An came here to find the so-called 蝞道 big demon. After sensing the existence of the other party, he immediately landed on the ground and slowly approached.
The countless demons that were chasing behind him saw that Yang An had run to this place, and they stopped chasing. Instead, they spread out and surrounded the surrounding areas.
Sensing the actions of these demons, Yang An became more and more curious about this place.
Anyway, if he really wanted to take action against these demons, he would not need to spend too much time to solve them all. The only threat was the dead master in the thick fog, who did not take the actions of these demons seriously.
As Yang An approached, there seemed to be a faint sound of breathing from the depths of the thick fog. The sound was loud, and as the surrounding holes continued to echo, it sounded like it was coming from a giant.
But as he walked, the continuous breathing sound suddenly disappeared. A gust of wind blew in front of him, slightly blowing away the surrounding fog, and Yang An's eyes gradually began to become clearer.
At the same time, a voice suddenly came in front of Yang An.
"Why don't you kill them?"
This was a man's voice. Obviously, the voice came from the front, but it felt like it was ringing in his ears.
What puzzled Yang An the most was that he actually felt a hint of familiarity from this voice!
He was very sure that he had never seen any dead master, nor had he dealt with any demons, so why did it sound familiar?
Yang An did not answer, but continued to move forward slowly. As the surrounding fog gradually dissipated, he finally saw the true face of the dead master.
A stone tablet over two meters high stood on the empty ground. A person covered with black spots merged with the stone tablet, with only his head and two hands showing, all drooping and drooping.
He did not even raise his head to look at Yang An, like a prisoner sealed here.
Yang An looked at him, but the messy long hair on his head covered his face, so he could not see what he looked like. On the arms exposed on the left and right sides of the stone tablet, in addition to those black spots, there were also large and small horrible wounds.
Some wounds have scabbed, some have festered, and some are still bleeding, with black blood dripping on the ground.
Yang An did not expect that this so-called big demon was actually a person. His eyes subconsciously moved from this person to the stone tablet on his body.
Just above the man's head, there was a broken mask embedded on the stone tablet.
Although the mask was already incomplete, Yang An still pieced together a very familiar pattern from it.
It was a simple pattern that looked like an eye...
At this moment, Yang An suddenly felt his breathing become rapid, and looked at the person in the stone tablet with some disbelief.
"...Ibis?"
The next moment, the man who had been drooping his head suddenly raised his head slowly.
"Do you know me?"
