Chapter 2404 Seal
Qin Sang was not blinded by temptation.
The fact that these demon saints' subordinates have gathered here must be on the orders of the demon saints. The unknown being that attracted him in the Dou Su may also be the target of the demon saints!
The two streaks of light quickly disappeared into the depths of the Nine Heavens Profound Gang. Judging from the direction they flew, it was the location of Dou Su.
This place is filled with the Nine Heavens Mystic Qi, which greatly affects the spiritual senses and judgment of cultivators. According to common sense, they are cultivating a new method and do not have Qin Sang's abilities. Even if they guess that the treasure is hidden in the Dou constellation, it is not easy to deduce the location of the Dou constellation unless they have a master to guide them.
The implication behind this is even more terrifying: the various demon saints are watching this place from afar!
Qin Sang shared her deduction with Mo Yan, who said, "We've only seen three so far. The truth might not be as terrible as you imagine. Now that we've left the Ox Constellation, we should at least take a look at the Dipper Constellation."
With a sliver of unrealistic hope, Qin Sang and Mo Yan flew towards Dou Su together.
"Huhuhu..."
The fierce winds were relentless and bone-chilling, but fortunately, Qin Sang and Mo Yan were strong enough that no matter how the winds changed, they could only affect their escape speed. They didn't need to deliberately change direction to adapt to the winds.
As they flew away, Qin Sang saw a white streak of light flash through the gale, its target the same as theirs.
They were now quite close to Dou Su, so Qin Sang and Mo Yan slowed down and tried to keep a low profile.
Gradually, they vaguely saw the boundary of the Nine Heavens Mystic Gang, where there was only darkness at the end, with a few stars scattered in the darkness, forming the constellation of the Dipper.
The stars are high and far away, beyond our reach!
There seemed to be an invisible force in the darkness, blocking the Nine Heavens Mystic Gang and the demons from entering.
"Look there!"
Qin Sang pointed to the edge of the Nine Heavens Mystic Gang, where there was a ball of ever-changing spiritual light, a mixture of purple and crimson flames, which was very conspicuous in the gale.
"It's Crimson Meteor Mountain and Moonlit Tundra; they're fighting!" Mo Yan confirmed, having also witnessed the attack.
The lord of the Moonlit Tundra is a member of the Purple Rhinoceros Clan, while the Crimson Meteor Mountain Clan is skilled in fire manipulation; both supernatural abilities have very distinct characteristics.
Even through the strong winds, one could sense the battle fluctuations emanating from there; the battle was extremely intense.
"Will Crimson Meteor Mountain and Moonlit Tundra really fight?"
A hint of doubt flashed in Qin Sang's eyes, wondering if they were still putting on an act, but who were they putting on the act for?
"It really is the Azure Demon King!"
The inkstone whispered.
Qin Sang also noticed that a boy in blue was standing on the edge of the gale, watching the battle from a distance.
The Azure Demon King made no effort to conceal his identity, as it was no longer necessary here. Anyone who could enter so quickly must be a top expert, and his identity would be exposed once he made a move.
Qin Sang and Mo Yan scanned the surroundings and found figures in other directions, all silently watching the battle like the Azure Demon King, without disturbing him.
"Princess Jade Dew of Xianlin Palace!"
"That is Garuda's beloved disciple..."
……
Those who came were all renowned experts in this region, with first-rate status, lineage, and talent. Mo Yan quickly identified the origins of most of the demon cultivators among them.
Without exception, they all had the backing of a demon saint!
Qin Sang's last hope was also shattered; this was simply a battlefield he couldn't intervene in.
If it were just a matter of facing a disciple of the Great Sage, he didn't consider himself weaker than the opponent. But what if the Demon Saints made a direct attack in the end? How many of him would dare to contend with a Demon Saint, and not just one Demon Saint?
As the saying goes, when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. The worst thing is that you might not even get a chance to fish in troubled waters before you're crushed to pieces.
The thought had barely crossed his mind when another streak of light flew through the gale, indicating that more of the Demon Saint's subordinates would be arriving.
The demon king and his companions did not disturb Crimson Meteor Mountain and Moonlit Tundra. They watched the battle while observing the darkness before them.
The constellation Dou was so close, yet the darkness seemed like a wall, blocking their path.
The Azure Demon King's gaze was gradually drawn to the darkness. After a moment of contemplation, a pool of rootless water appeared behind him.
‘Wow! ’
Water splashed everywhere, and eight tentacles emerged from the water. The surface of the tentacles was covered with suckers, which kept wriggling.
These tentacles groped their way past the Azure Demon King and into the darkness.
A moment later, the Azure Demon King's expression changed slightly, and his tentacles suddenly retracted as if he had been electrocuted.
Of these, only two escaped unharmed; the other six seemed to be entangled by something. Sensing danger, the Azure Demon King decisively severed all six tentacles at the root.
The tentacles twisted violently before being pulled in by a force. Then, the Azure Demon King lost all feeling for the tentacles. Before the six tentacles disappeared, he could only vaguely see a strange white shadow.
The darkness clearly concealed unseen dangers; entering Dou Su would not be so simple.
Other demon kings also came to the edge of Dou Su, and tried their methods to test the waters, but all of them failed, which made them dare not make any rash moves.
The demon kings sized each other up, discerning each other's identities and origins. They were not surprised at all; even those who had been hiding their identities were undoubtedly connected to some Great Sage.
"Everyone!"
The Azure Demon King spoke first, drawing the attention of the other demon kings. Then, he gestured towards the battlefield with his lip, "Why don't we try to persuade them first?"
The demons immediately understood his meaning.
The stargate was opened by Crimson Meteor Mountain and Moonlit Tundra, so they must know this place better. They were able to join forces to open the stargate before, but they've fallen out here, clearly indicating that there's something more important to both sides, and neither is willing to compromise.
"Fellow Daoists, please stop immediately! Why ruin the harmony?"
"Yes, yes, why don't we all brainstorm and figure out how to get in first? We can fight back once we see the treasure..."
……
The demon kings took turns offering their advice.
In the battlefield.
The two sides fought fiercely, their purple light and crimson fire clashing and becoming indistinguishable, accompanied by a constant stream of curses.
Although Yuanluo was at a disadvantage against two opponents, looking at the overall battle situation, Chiyunshan showed no signs of defeat.
They were obviously putting on an act for others to see.
Hearing the demons' words of advice, Yuanluo quietly exchanged a glance with the two cousins.
Just then, the immortal transmitted a message reminding them: "The time is almost right, make your move and lock them all inside!"
"If we close the star gate, won't the demon saints outside force their way in?" Yuanluo asked with some concern.
"No, they each have their own agendas. They won't act rashly until the very last moment. As long as we don't completely cut off their contact, they'll wait patiently..."
Yuanluo silently agreed in her heart, and the star chart in her sleeve shattered without a sound, the fragments turning into invisible dust that quietly fell to the ground.
At the same time, Yuanluo and the purple rhinoceros controlled by her cousins collided fiercely and separated immediately. Both sides also separated in the process, but they still glared at each other fiercely.
"Hehe, your noses are sharper than dogs', you came right after smelling the scent!" Yuanluo appeared, glanced around, and said irritably, showing no politeness to these demon saint's subordinates.
"Haha, I wonder how our Huodou Mountain has offended Fairy Yuanluo? I will apologize to the fairy right away."
A hearty laugh echoed through the gale, and a red-haired man flew out. The man had a broad back and a narrow waist, and his bright red nose was quite striking.
The demons recognized him as the eldest disciple of the Great Sage of Huodou Mountain.
The so-called 'Huodou' is a kind of spirit dog, and the Huodou clan was quite famous in ancient times.
"It's not that our noses are sensitive, it's just that the smells you all emit are too strong," one of the demon cultivators retorted.
Yuanluo's face turned cold, and she glared fiercely at Yuehun Taiyuan. "I tried to persuade you with kind words, but you didn't know what was good for you. You're still stubborn and don't understand. Do you really want to let them get away with this?"
"Hmph! Why don't you listen to us and insist on putting yourself in charge?"
The cousins were still unconvinced, but their tone softened a bit, and they whispered something through their mouths.
Then, the two sides began to move closer to each other, and eventually, under heavy external pressure, they put aside their differences and chose to join forces.
Qin Sang and Mo Yan observed this, and Mo Yan asked, "Fellow Daoist, could you enter Dou Su ahead of them?"
Crimson Meteor Mountain, Moonlit Tundra, and the various demon kings each harbor their own ulterior motives, and there's likely to be more conflict; it would be best if they all fought each other.
"I'm afraid it's difficult; Dou Su is very likely to be completely unharmed!"
Qin Sang shook her head.
That intense attraction constantly tempted him and his destiny star, but it couldn't point him to a clear path.
The reason why the Ox Constellation could be broken through so quickly is because the Ox Constellation was already in ruins, as can be seen from the fragments.
Dou Su is different. In Qin Sang's view, it is a complete whole without any flaws. To break through the darkness and enter, one must constantly try and deduce.
Even if he's the first to go in and gets the treasure, can he bring it out alive?
At this moment, Yuanluo and the two cousins stood together, facing the demon kings, and coldly said, "I advise you..."
As soon as she spoke, the expressions of all the demon cultivators present changed.
The Azure Demon King retracted his left hand into his sleeve, revealing a jade-green thumb ring on his thumb, with a wisp of energy swirling around it.
This is the aura that the Great Sage of Beiheng personally left on it before his departure.
Just now, this wisp of energy trembled and almost dissipated. The connection hidden within the energy suddenly became almost imperceptible.
The Azure Demon King frowned secretly, rubbed his thumb ring, and silently used his supernatural powers, but received no response, which made him suspicious.
As long as he carries this ring, the Great Sage of Beiheng can descend at any time. Now, who has severed his connection with the Great Sage of Beiheng?
No, the connection hasn't been broken, it's just become very weak, and I don't know how much power it still has.
……
Before the Star Gate, the demon cultivators who were weak and blocked by the Nine Heavens Profound Qi finally found the Star Gate after a hard search.
Some demon cultivators entered the star gate, while others lingered at the gate, hesitating whether to go in or not.
The treasure is wonderful, but life is more important; there are already too many experts inside.
However, the space behind the door looked very spacious. Even if they couldn't eat meat, they could at least have some soup, right?
Just as these demon cultivators hesitated, the surface of the Star Gate suddenly shone brightly, and the Xuanwu Seven Mansions, which had been covered by wounds, shone with starlight and brilliance.
'Om! '
The star gate trembled.
To the astonishment of the demons, the Star Gate was closing.
'Swish! Swish!'
Several beams of light, formed from supernatural powers and spiritual treasures, rushed toward the star gate. The demon cultivators all tried to stop the star gate from closing, but to no avail.
As the star gate slowly closed, the demon cultivators present made drastically different choices. Some were worried about being trapped inside and dared not go in, while others thought that if even the demon saint's subordinates dared to go in, what did they have to worry about? They were sure it would open again later.
'boom! ’
As the last gap closes, it's too late for those who didn't get in to regret it.
At this moment, the myriad starlight suddenly receded, the star gate sank, and the Nine Heavens Profound Qi that had been separated by the star gate swept in again.
In the blink of an eye, the Star Gate disappeared from the sight of the demons, leaving no trace. No matter what methods they used, they could not sense the slightest fluctuation.
The demons exchanged bewildered glances when suddenly one of them cried out in alarm and hurriedly flew back. The surrounding demons immediately realized that the star gate had vanished; was this underground spirit array also about to close?
……
Ox constellation.
The five immortals had escaped the pursuit of the ink beast and were now standing in front of a pile of broken stones.
The surface of this gravel is smooth and flat, and on it sits a wooden carving. The wood of the carving is warm and smooth, and it depicts an old man with a sage-like appearance.
The old man sat cross-legged with his hands flat on his knees, palms facing upwards, but his face lacked facial features, which was somewhat eerie.
The five immortals all looked respectful as they faced the wooden carving.
The fox spirit was at the forefront, bowing respectfully to the wooden carving and forcing out its essence blood.
The essence and blood burned for no reason, turning into a wisp of smoke that entered the wooden carving, causing a strange luster to appear on its surface.
"Please advise, Master..."
After this blood sacrifice, the fox spirit chanted the name of the Five Immortals Abode Master, seeking his instructions. Immediately, the fox spirit's expression shifted slightly as it listened intently. After a moment, it suddenly frowned.
"What did the Master say?" the Black Protector asked anxiously.
The fox spirit stared at the wooden carving and said, "It's broken."
"Broken? What broke?"
They looked at the wood carving and noticed that the luster that had appeared earlier was quickly disappearing, even though they had clearly done nothing.
The five immortals all raised their heads, and inexplicably felt that the starry sky seemed different from before. What exactly happened? Even the secret technique personally taught by the master of the temple was blocked?
……
"Something's wrong!"
Qin Sang noticed some strange behavior from the demon kings.
Suddenly, a scroll flew out from the chest of a demon king. With a crack, the scroll shattered and turned into a cloud of pink smoke.
The smoke quickly dissipated, leaving only a wisp, which the demon king swiftly collected.
However, the aura that surged forth in that instant was terrifying.
"That belongs to the Great Sage!" Mo Yan said in a deep voice.
Besides this demon, other demon kings also exuded unusual auras.
As expected, these demon kings were all acting under orders, and they all possessed treasures bestowed by the Demon Saint, which were not just simple protective items. The Demon Saint might be using this method to keep an eye on this place.
If anything changes, the true form or its incarnation can descend directly!
For some reason, they were exposed at the same time.
Qin Sang's heart sank to the bottom in an instant, and he lost all hope. He had even underestimated how much importance the Demon Saint attached to this place!
The scroll appeared to be broken, but the methods of a powerful being are unfathomable. As long as a wisp of aura remains, the Demon Saint may still descend.
Even the slightest possibility would be catastrophic for him!
"Fellow Daoist, did you feel it?" Mo Yan twisted his neck uncomfortably, feeling as if an invisible shackle had been placed on his body.
Qin Sang was even more perceptive of the changes here, and vaguely guessed what had happened. She said, "Let's go back!" (End of Chapter)
