Chapter 327 The Remains of the Demonic Ape
On her head, there is a pair of horns.
If Liu Feng came over, he would not fail to recognize that this half-demon woman was none other than Qiao Bei.
Compared to the Taoist cultivation of the Third Realm when he left, Qiao Bei is currently in the late stage of the Fourth Realm and the Five Elements Realm, and the Zhoutian method he has practiced has completely changed. When the true energy circulates, it can temper the physical body.
"Shut your mouths. You will be out in two or three years. Why rush and start making noises in my ears."
In the center of the mixed demonic energy, Qiao Bei looked manic, and there were constant whispers in his ears, and there were more than one voice.
There were several old things making noise, one of them was the old immortal from her mirage dragon clan, and the others were old monsters who were friends with the mirage dragons, and they were all living under the seal.
In the past two years, she had been trapped in the formation gate space and learned many secrets that she had never been exposed to in the past.
In addition to the origin of her bloodline, she also knew why the great formation under Da Sui came into being, as well as the origin of the evil spirits sealed inside.
In the final analysis, the two groups of forces, the old and the new, were fighting each other. The force dominated by humans was defeated by the one dominated by demons.
If Qiao Bei wants to be pure, how can the demon inside the seal listen to her?
"Little thing, time waits for no one. If we don't arrange it earlier, when we go out, they will probably eat it until the bones are left."
"Most of the elders have died, and not many of the younger ones have grown up. They all have their own agendas. It will be difficult to fight against those families!"
"Dig down, tell this idiot to dig down some more, I will separate a soul as soon as possible..."
Within the surging demonic energy, strands of blood danced, and sometimes a beast shape gathered together, urging Qiao Bei.
Qiao Bei had no choice but to help out and guide the tree demon on the way according to the formation deduction method passed down by the old demons.
At the beginning, one of the two six-level tree demons died outside, and only one was left here. Otherwise, if the two tree demons had contributed, it would have been much faster.
As for why she didn't find the three blood demons on the ground to come down and help, it was because the blood demon lineage and the master of the voices in her ears couldn't deal with it, and the blood demons in the seal had other plans.
The further down you go, the closer you get to the true location of the formation. Although it has not really touched the foundation of the formation, the confining power of the formation is enough to affect the soil above.
Qiao Bei and the tree demon had to open a path down to the gap in the formation, which was definitely not something they could do in a short time.
Fortunately, Qiao Bei benefited a lot from his hard work here, refining the essence and blood of various demons.
"rumble……"
Tens of thousands of roots explore the path below day and night.
Unconsciously, another half year has passed, and the tree demon has only advanced less than three hundred feet, and the confinement below has become stronger and stronger.
But at this location, several cracks in the soil were clearly visible, running through the top and bottom, and a steady stream of demonic energy was pouring out.
On this day, Qiao Bei closed his five senses and fell asleep at the root of the tree demon, barely settling down.
Even while she was sleeping, the skills in her body were still running on their own. The demonic energy and blood around her were slowly being refined by them, and the true energy and true spirit in her body were always growing.
In half a year, her realm went from the late stage of the Four Realms to the Perfect Stage of the Four Realms.
"Wake up." A low voice suddenly sounded in her mind.
It was useless for Qiao Bei to close her five senses. After being forcibly awakened, she could not wait to get angry and whispered into her ears.
"Qiao Bei, the formation gate space above has been opened by the blood demon."
"Brother Tianlu Dao, separate your soul quickly. We will work together to help you get out. Qiao Bei will take you to find a suitable body."
"Push her to the fifth realm first, so it's safer."
When the words came, four balls of essence and blood squeezed out from the cracks in the ground, along with a streak of black light.
The black light fell on Qiao Bei's shoulder, turning into an inky black locust with an illusory form.
Qiao Bei snorted and swallowed four balls of essence and blood unceremoniously. His physical body, true spirit, and true energy were greatly toniced at the same time, and his breath was rising steadily under the operation of the technique.
More than half an hour later, the seven acupuncture points in her body were connected to form a seven-star formation. What was brewing in it was not star power, but mixed demonic power.
"The last step of cultivating the soul is to go outside to receive the star power to break through. The space of the formation gate here is inconvenient, so I won't go out with my soul yet." The voice of the soul separated from Tian Locust said.
Qiao Bei glanced at the locust on his shoulder coldly, and called to the tree demon, and the tree demon Li Xu's huge body suddenly shrank to a hundred feet.
She had wanted to leave for a long time, but when she heard that the seal outside the array gate space was broken by the blood demon, there was no way she would stay here and endure the noise.
After a muffled sound of churning earth and rocks, the dryad led Qiao Bei out of the ground.
In front of the collapsed pagoda, the three blood demons were nowhere to be seen, and the billowing demonic energy was pouring out along the exit of the formation gate space.
The tree demon flew into the air and did not stay in this array gate space for long. The benefits of this place had long been taken away by the blood demon. Even the ancestor of the Luo family had been sucked away the remaining essence and blood after he died.
Arriving outside the array gate space, there was no one on the bank of Qujiang River, only the traces left by the broken dragon energy array.
"The one who broke the formation was the three-headed six-level blood demon. It seems that another blood demon from the Yin Yue Dynasty came over and cooperated with the junior Yuan Fa."
"More than two thousand years have passed, and the spiritual energy of the world here is very thin. The people who set up the formation back then would not stay here even if they want to come."
The sighs of black locusts came to her ears. Qiao Bei sat on the branch of the tree demon, with a look of confusion on her violent face.
When he was young, he hung out with the spirits and had a bad mind. Then he became Liu Feng's subordinate. Along the way, he either followed the demon king or the human race.
It was impossible for her to go to Gujiang, and it was even more impossible for her to work for Liu Feng, a human race. If Liu Feng hadn't been so generous to her, she would have had to go and eat him with her current cultivation and demonic nature.
"Old man, where are we going?" Qiao Bei tilted his head and looked at Tian Locust Yuan Shen.
"Little girl, you really don't know the slightest bit of etiquette. You don't have to be polite to the human race. You'd better be polite to me, the senior demon race."
"How do you expect me to be polite to you even though you have so much energy? Don't offend me."
Qiao Bei didn't care about etiquette. Old Heiyu from Gujiang didn't teach her, and Liu Feng couldn't teach her etiquette.
She received the starlight from the sky and rushed to the five realms on the spot. She sensed that there seemed to be another one of her in the Niwan Palace trying to break free.
This is exactly the feeling you get when you cultivate your soul and have your true spirit entrusted to your soul. It is also the first step for a monk to touch the true spirit and move towards transcending the ordinary world.
Seeing that Qiao Bei didn't give him a good look, Tian Locust Yuan Shen didn't bother to say any more. He looked at the tree demon's hundred-foot-long body and said dissatisfied: "This tree demon was kept in captivity by the Luo family and has an ignorant mind. The skills taught to it have not been fully practiced yet." , I don’t even know how to change, and I have to guide you.”
The black light flashed into the body of the tree demon, and with a creaking sound, the wooden body that had shrunk by a hundred feet shrank again. In the blink of an eye, it was only about ten feet in size. The demonic power opened an invisible barrier and took Qiao Bei to fly away.
…
Liang State, the imperial capital of Changzhou.
There were many figures coming and going in the city, and there were many monks who were not demon cultivators at first glance.
Now is the time when the army of Sui State invades Liang State. Even with doubled military strength, it has been unable to capture Liang State. This is all because Liang State has too much help.
Most of the people from the Yin Yue Dynasty are joining forces with the Liang Kingdom, and all the demon cultivators have gathered in the Liang Kingdom.
Qintian Supervisor's main hall, on the top-floor observatory.
Zhou Wan sat on the railing, her two smooth calves dangling, looking into the palace.
"I wonder how their talks with Emperor Liang Guogou went?"
The ones she refers to are the Demon Crossing Palace, the Wuliang Sect and the Wuji Sect. These three demon cultivators are the main ones, and there are also many demon cultivators from the Yin Yue Dynasty.
Such a large group of people from the Five Realms and even the Sixth Realm entered the palace. They said they were negotiating business with the Liang Emperor, but in fact it was more like intimidation.
As far as Yu Qiongzi knew, there were no ancestors from the Seventh Realm in the Liang Kingdom, and the Sixth Realm from the Yin Yue Dynasty carried magic weapons and other foreign objects. If the Liang Kingdom Royal Family did not have strong enough means, they might not be able to suppress these people.
At this time, under the deep and dark palace.
On the winding corridor, a dragon turned into an evil spirit and wandered around, with faces on its head, all of which were the emperors of the Liang Kingdom.
Behind the evil dragon they were parasitic on, there were two groups of men.
Emperor Liang An and other royal relatives were in front, and the demon cultivators from the Yin Yue Dynasty were behind. There were nearly three hundred people in front and behind.
The two parties gathered together and headed towards the bottom of the palace, presumably reaching some kind of agreement.
"My Liang family founded the country six hundred years after the Sui Kingdom. The original capital was not here in Changzhou. The capital was moved here four hundred years ago."
"The magic inheritance you want to see is below. It's because of him that the Liang family moved the capital here..."
Following the late emperor's narration on the evil dragon, all the foreign demonic cultivators knew the origin of the current demonic cultivators in the Liang Kingdom.
According to their opinion, although the Liang Kingdom's demon cultivators are now slightly better than ordinary people in the same realm, their skills are obviously incomplete, and most of them have only scratched the surface.
"Fellow Taoists of the Liang family, is it possible that you haven't obtained all the inheritance below?" asked the demon cultivator with a curved horn at the Demon Crossing Palace.
Half a year later, the elder named Wu from the Demon Crossing Palace has been successfully promoted to the Sixth Realm.
"Get it all? We have never received a real inheritance. We just looked at the demon bones from a distance, absorbed some pure demon energy, and gained some superficial understanding on our own." The face on the evil dragon sighed.
As soon as these words came out, many demon cultivators from the Yin Yue Dynasty cheered up. If Liang didn't get it, they would have a chance to get it.
There were over a hundred people in the Demon Crossing Palace, the largest number among the demon cultivators present.
There is no other reason. The people from the Demon Crossing Palace came here two years ago and trained a group of disciples who successfully transformed demons into demons.
There were nearly three hundred people at the back. The demon-transforming disciples who had been forcibly implanted with demons could be said to be the lowest status people present. Needless to say, they would be the ones to go first if there were any dangerous things that needed to be discovered later.
Among the nearly seventy demon-transforming disciples who followed, a pockmarked-faced woman followed closely behind a black-haired young man.
"Liu Feng, my aunt followed you into this place, you have to be responsible for protecting me." The pockmarked woman's expression was sometimes manic, sometimes wretched.
This woman was none other than Yuan Caihe who had turned into a demon. The black-haired young man whom he called Liu Feng was not Liu Feng's true form, but the devil's body Liu Feng.
Nowadays, they are the only two people who come from the Shenxian Sect and still hang out together.
The rest of the people, such as the third elder Qiu Quan, Wei Hong and several protectors, all had great changes in temperament. Some were afraid of the demon body Liu Feng and went far away from them.
"It's easy to say, Junior Sister Yuan has followed Liu wholeheartedly, how could Liu fail you?" Liu Feng, the demon body, chuckled sideways and casually pinched Yuan Caihe's pockmarked face.
Yuan Caihe was startled, feeling that he was being teased, and his expression suddenly became irritable.
"I'm not asking you to be responsible for life-long events. Just help me at a critical moment. I will help you deal with your true form in the future."
She said this with some confidence. The integration of her two bodies into one was smoother than that of other demon-transforming monks. Not only did the separated alien Gu return to its original form, but its poison energy also increased a bit, breaking through to a small level in the later stages of the third life. The third body is perfect.
In the past six months, there were no accidents, and he was successfully reborn in his fourth life. The fourth strange poison he planted was no longer for life-saving purposes, but the "blood scorpion", a strange poison that strengthened his body and was good at fighting people head-on.
Coupled with the magic skills taught by the Demon Crossing Palace, she, a fourth-generation body Gu master who transformed into demons, is considered to be the best among the disciples of the Demon Crossing Palace.
"Liu will help you, remember to raise more Gu and prepare them so that Liu won't be distracted by raising Gu."
"I'll take care of this little thing for you, and I'll give you 300,000 yuan in it, enough for you to eat."
Yuan Caihe patted his heart, half of the Gu worms in the space were prepared by Liu Feng, the demon body.
While the two were talking in low voices, they followed the crowd to the end of the corridor, and a strong demonic aura hit their faces.
By the light of the torch, nearly three hundred people could see a vast, thousands-foot-long pool. The pool was full of blood, but there was no smell of blood.
When everyone came to the pool, their eyes naturally moved to the back section of the pool, where there was a piece of fog covering a wide area.
There are a large number of figures flying in the mist, each figure is indistinct, as if it has countless faces, the body shape and appearance change, and there are only two expressions, either greed or anger.
Inside, surrounded by many ethereal figures, a human body sitting cross-legged could be vaguely seen. Most of it was immersed in the water, with only the head and a little upper body exposed on the surface of the pool.
If you look closely at the head in the mist, it looks like a human head at first glance, but after a few more looks, you will find that it is actually the skull of an ape.
"A skeleton that has been dead for thousands of years can actually attract so many demons."
"What is his identity? His realm before death will not be lower than the eighth realm. The heaven and earth within it may be somewhere in his remains."
"I would like to ask all fellow Taoists of the Liang family, have you ever found the entrance to the inner world of this demonic ape?"
All the demon cultivators of the Yin Yue Dynasty have rich knowledge and can see that the remains of the demon ape in the pool are not simple. Although they are from the demon sect of the Yin Yue Dynasty, they don't even know whether there are eight-level old ghosts hiding in the sect.
As far as they know, only the blood families of kings definitely have eight realms, or even nine realms that are close to immortals and Buddhas.
The bones in front of them are at least eight realms, and they may not be found even in the big world outside. They came here before the seal was broken, and they really hit the opportunity.
The evil dragon coiled in a corner of the pool, with seven faces on its head looking depressed.
"I don't know whether there is an inner world or not. If we could find an inner world, how could I, the Liang family, be suppressed by the Sui Kingdom?"
"Over the past few hundred years, in order to get close to the Demon Bones, I, the Liang family, have lost many of my descendants. Of course, I have also made some strong men who have understood some of the techniques."
"The mist has become a magical fantasy world. If you want to observe the demon bone, please be careful. How much pure demonic energy you can absorb, and how many skills this bone can comprehend before it is alive, all depends on your luck."
Needless to say, the late Emperor Liang's family came to know that the source of Liang's demonic blood came from the remains of the demonic ape and this pool of blood soaked in pure demonic energy.
Nearly three hundred people came on this trip, including the direct descendants of the Liang family, and they all approached Li Xu Miwu in the pool without much delay.
The group from the Demon Crossing Palace walked at the front, led by seventy demon-transforming disciples to attract the demons.
When the five elders, Mu Haochu and others approached the remains of the demon ape, they all glanced at a certain demon-turned-disciple intentionally or unintentionally.
After half a year, they used magic power to explore the child five times, inside and outside. The result was that there were physical differences, and he could recover after swallowing the poisonous insects.
Elder Wu has even used the magic of capturing souls twice. According to the past revealed by this boy, he had a lot of luck in getting the king Gu when he was young.
But other than that, there was nothing too surprising, which made them a little puzzled. It was hard to say that the Tao family's interest in this son was really because of the Tao family woman.
In front of everyone, seventy demon-transforming disciples were the first to break into the illusion of the demon.
The sky and the earth are hazy and boundless, and in the middle is a thousand-foot demon bone sitting cross-legged. It seems to be close in front of you, but it also seems to be thousands of miles away.
Faced with a large number of indistinct figures swooping down, more than twenty people went crazy when they met.
The remaining nearly fifty people ran away to avoid the chasing demons, acting as live bait.
The figures of the demon cultivators became blurry. The demon cultivators Liu Feng and Yuan Caihe were also on the run. However, after he distanced himself from the other demon cultivators, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Under the full field of vision, pure demonic energy surges in the fantasy realm, like long rivers surrounding the demonic bones.
The real demon bone is in the pool less than a hundred feet in front of him. On a bone in the Dantian position, a mysterious mark is clearly visible.
The pure demonic energy comes from the demonic bone, but the demonic aura within the demonic bone comes from that mark.
Yuan Caihe was caught with one hand and could not react. The demonic body Liu Feng threw her into a long river of demonic energy, allowing the girl to absorb the demonic energy and strengthen herself.
Under Yuan Caihe's gaze, the demon body Liu Feng quickly disappeared into the depths of the illusion like other disciples, being chased by the demon.
