Chapter 0676 In the Clouds

The tall demon statue was resurrected, truly resurrected, with flesh and blood, and the every detail on its face was revealed.

Black Phoenix was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "His Majesty the Demon King's voice has changed so much that I can't even recognize it."

The height of the golem is several times that of ordinary humans, but it is not as bloated and fat as most beast demons. Even wearing a full set of armor, it looks well-proportioned.

"The demons need slaves like you." The demon said in an elephantine voice.

"I'm honored to be favored by the Demon King. Demon slaves are stronger than demons and human emperors." Black Phoenix bowed her head slightly to express her surrender. She knew that this was not a dragon demon, but she didn't dare to ask why.

"You have made great achievements in Zhan Demon Mountain and regained the body of the demon statue."

"I also received a generous reward and learned the magic of demons." Black Phoenix knew in her heart that such a conversation would usually not have good results, but she had no other choice.

"What you learned is just a few basic spells. When you make greater achievements, you will get more powerful demon spells."

Black Phoenix lowered his head, "I'm afraid my abilities are low and I won't have the chance to make greater contributions."

"Contribution depends not only on strength, but also on loyalty. One point of strength will give you more credit than ten points of strength and only five points."

The demon statue walked to a place more than ten steps in front of Black Phoenix and looked down at the small figure surrounded by many magic weapons, "Keep in mind your choice. Half-hearted efforts will not make any achievements, let alone get rewards. "

Black Phoenix couldn't even make her voice softer. Standing in front of the demon statue, she suddenly lost all confidence and will. She felt that all temptations and spells were of no use. She was so nervous that she broke into a thin sweat, "I We are devoted to the Demon Clan. The Demon Clan has always been loyal to the Demon Clan. We have long been looking forward to the Demon Clan’s return to the world. We all hate Dao Tong.”

"More than 130,000 years are enough to turn the sea into mulberry fields. The loyalty of the demon clan is also very different. In the past, you used your lives to be loyal, but now you rely on words to please.

Black Phoenix raised his head and tried his best to squeeze out a smile, "My life has long been owned by the Demon King, and the Demon King can take it away at any time..."

“Remember your words, especially in the most critical moments.”

Black Phoenix looked at it in surprise, and then realized that during the short period of time when she lowered her head, all the magic weapons around her were humming together, like streams of water pouring into her ears. I had never noticed it before.

"The most critical moment?" Black Phoenix's voice trembled. Her appearance and charm were mainly for humans. They were also effective on some half-demon, but they were greatly reduced when used on beast monsters. Facing the demons, she I feel like I'm no different than an ugly, lazy dog.

"You brought Mu Xingqiu, which is a credit, but you have to hand him over to truly make a contribution."

"I only have illusions in my mind. Mu Xingqiu is hiding outside the mountain..." The sound in Black Phoenix's ears became louder and louder, as if the entire city's residents were talking to her. She was about to be drowned by the noise. It was difficult to breathe.

"Illusion is invisible, but that doesn't mean it can't be captured. It is closely connected with the caster..." The golem switched to speaking in the demon language. It was a solemn voice like thunder, as if coming from the ninth heaven. It penetrated the heavy dark clouds and landed with a crash.

Black Phoenix felt like he was flying, not flying against the wind, but floating in the wind like willow catkins.

She knew she had fainted, but the strange thing was that she was still conscious, but what she saw was no longer the courtyard on the top of Tuoshan, and there were no magic weapons or tall demon statues. It was just patches of clouds and mist that she couldn't figure out. Whether he was ascending or falling, he only saw clouds and mist passing by quickly.

Finally, she saw something else.

Mu Xingqiu was floating in the clouds and mist, with his hands behind his back. He seemed more handsome than he really was, and there was no bald man around him.

There was another Taoist priest dozens of steps away. He was very old and she had never seen him before.

Mu Xingqiu's soul was dragged into the illusion of the demon clan. He still underestimated the enemy's strength. Bingcheng defeated Zhou Qi and fought against Demon Mountain to eliminate ten thousand Bingkui. No matter how calm Mu Xingqiu was, he would still be a little proud, thinking that his own strength was enough to deal with any magician.

The magicians were defeated one after another, but they benefited from it. The demons in the void had to give them more powerful spells. The magician thus resurrected the golem, and through him he was able to unleash the full power of the demon's magic.

Mu Xingqiu's body is still outside the mountain, but his soul has been forced into an illusion that is not his own.

"Taoist An made a good plan." Mu Xingqiu admitted that he lost a move and could not retrieve the illusion from Black Phoenix's mind in time, but he was not panicked.

An Xiangxing looked down at his body, and with a thought, he realized that he had become several dozen years younger. He was now a middle-aged Taoist priest in his forties, with black beard and hair, and a bit taller.

"Where's Guo Dongyou?"

The biggest change in An Xiangxing was not that he became decades younger, but that he lost the composure of Taoist priests. The expression on his face moved as he pleased. When he mentioned Guo Dongyou who came to Tuoshan with him, his face became cold and ruthless, "He is too Stupid, unwilling to be persuaded, unwilling to voluntarily become a demon, the result is that his soul is wandering in the Demon King's Palace."

An Xiangxing downplayed the death of his companion. He was possessed by the devil for a short time, but it was deeper.

Mu Xingqiu snorted, saying that the possessed Taoist priest disowned his relatives, but what An Xiangxing did was still even more despicable, "Is it just you? Why not be more cheerful and call out all your accomplices."

"This battle is between the two of us. I want to experience your 'power of one thought'."

The Black Phoenix, who was watching from the sidelines, was very surprised. The two men seemed to have not noticed her existence after talking for a long time. The Black Phoenix looked down and immediately found out the reason. She really did not exist. There was nothing where her body should be, and the clouds and mist passed through at will.

This was an illusion created based on her mind. Thirty magic tools and a magic hand were restraining and monitoring her from outside.

No matter who won or lost this battle, the Black Phoenix's mind might suffer a serious blow. Thinking of this, her heart trembled violently, and the whole illusion also trembled, as if a great disaster had just happened. Mu Xingqiu looked around, but An Xiangxing remained calm.

The Black Phoenix hurriedly gathered her mind. She understood what the so-called single-minded loyalty meant. If she disrupted this fight, she would immediately be like Guo Dongyou, with her soul floating in the Demon King's Palace.

Her only choice was to watch quietly, praying that the two Taoists would not destroy the illusion too seriously, and then help An Xiangxing when the "most critical" moment came.

Mu Xingqiu was not in a hurry to cast a spell. He was assessing the situation and wanted to find out the truth. "You said you were playing along. Have you ever thought that being sent to rob the water from the Sword Washing Pool was part of Wangshan's plan?"

"That's not important. Even though I was deceived before, I am willing now. And I have to say that it was a great plan. If I knew it in advance, it might have been leaked. But I knew nothing about it, so it was perfect. Haha, this seems to be Zuo Liuying's usual method. It's a pity that he didn't come with you. Once this matter is over, the first thing I will do is to kill Zuo Liuying. He dared to bluff me. His crime is unforgivable."

"Don't worry, Zuo Liuying is already a mortal and can't run away. You said that the Dragon Demon persuaded you to voluntarily become a demon. Where is she? Why didn't she come out?"

"Don't worry either. When I defeat you, the Dragon Demon will come out to see you. This is also the purpose of your coming to Tuoshan , I have fulfilled my promise, right? "An Xiangxing sneered sarcastically, "You owe Dragon Demon something, she will definitely meet you."

"What do I owe her?"

"Niwan Palace, Dragon Demon is a true illusion created from your mind. She can shape the body and inner elixir, but she can't create three fields that can accommodate inner elixir or demon seeds. She once got a crystal heart, but it couldn't be used as a crimson palace, so she gave it to the female Taoist priest beside you. Now Dragon Demon needs the real three fields, even one, to inherit all the power of the Demon King. Your lower dantian and crimson palace have been destroyed, but fortunately the Niwan Palace is left, which is the most important power container of the demon clan, and the demon seeds can take root here. There are countless Niwan Palaces in the world, but which one is more suitable for Dragon Demon than yours? "

"Dragon Demon can come to me himself." Mu Xingqiu felt a little uneasy.

"Hey, it seems that you will hand it over willingly. "An Xiangxing was not in a hurry to cast a spell. This was a battle in an illusion, and disturbing the opponent's mind was one of the most important means of fighting.

"The Dragon Demon asked me to tell you something." An Xiangxing's eyes flickered, ready to shoot a long-accumulated sharp arrow, "She gave you the inner elixir of the fifth level of Xingluo, tried her best to match you with the female Taoist priest surnamed Yang, and urged you to become stronger. Everything is to strengthen your Niwan Palace. It's like planting flowers and fruits. Now that the flowers are blooming and the fruits are ripe, you should hand them over."

Mu Xingqiu felt an uncontrollable anger. With a wave of his right hand, lightning came out of his sleeves and instantly penetrated An Xiangxing's body.

An Xiangxing disappeared, and appeared in another place in the blink of an eye. "This is not the power of a thought, Mu Xingqiu, use all your strength!"

An Xiangxing was not injured at all, but Hei Huang, who was watching the battle, felt a burning pain. The illusion, that is, her brain, was bearing the lightning for An Xiangxing. Hei Huang was even more terrified, but she did not dare to remind Mu Xingqiu out loud.

The most critical moment has not yet arrived, she must wait.

Mu Xingqiu did not continue to cast lightning. He simply lowered his arms, floated in the same place and thought for a while, then sat upright in the air and actually entered a state of visualization, letting the clouds and mist swirl around him.
