Inside the Demon Lord's Palace, the five great cultivators and the Demon Lord Tu You all knelt on the ground, all their strength being drained away. They reacted quickly, changing from kneeling to sitting, concentrating their minds. However, even though they resisted desperately, they only slowed down the rate at which their strength was drained away.
Yu Chengyue's strength was also being lost, but he was less restrained. I don't know if it was because of the Linglong bone.
There is no doubt that if the situation continues to develop in this way, the final fate of everyone in the hall will be the same as that of the Demon Lord Xingfu.
"I want to see if there is any divine seal on Father Xing's body." Ye Su suddenly said to Yu Chengyue in the hall.
She wanted to know if there was any difference between Xingfu and the three great men of the Wanfo Sect.
The invasion of the demon army was obviously not a spontaneous act, especially since it involved the Demon Lord, so it must have been the work of the Demon Lord.
Now it seems that this person is Xing Fu, who can not only command the demon army, but also happen to cause the death of the Five Elements Sect's powerful men in the battle.
But Ye Su didn't understand why Xingfu didn't leave with Master Zhengchu. Instead, his strength was quickly drained away until he dried up and lost all his vitality.
The scars on Yu Chengyue's body have healed, but the two ribs were not put back in, and it didn't seem to have much impact on him.
After hearing what Ye Su said, he slowly approached Xing's father. As he was not a weapon refiner, he could not control the spiritual fire, so he took out a dagger and began to dismember Xing's father's flesh. This was obviously not unfamiliar to Cheng Yue. When he peeled out the bones, it was even faster than Ye Su burning them out with the spiritual fire.
"This?" Yu Chengyue half-knelt on the ground, found a bone with a purple mark from a pile of bones, and held it up for Ye Su to see clearly.
It turned out to be the cervical vertebrae.
If what Tuyou said was true, then Xingfu was possessed.
The purple mark on Xing's father's cervical vertebrae was actually deeper than Ning Qianyao's, but the mark was slightly twisted, and the color of the tail was slightly lighter, mixed with black demonic energy, like a trace left by Xing's father's resistance.
This is different from Ning Qianyao's.
That's why... after possessing him, he absorbed all of Xing's father's power.
Because Xing's father once resisted
At this time, a master of Wujian Sect opened his eyes and struggled to say to the people outside the hall: "Go, find... Peng Lai."
Whenever a major event occurs, Penglai will appear and, with his ability of deduction, arrange a solution in advance.
If anyone could understand what was happening, it was probably only Peng.
Ye Su's eyes fell on the people in the hall. Except for Yu Chengyue, everyone else was slowly getting older. She said, "We went there before we came. Everyone in Penglai had disappeared and was no longer in Penglai."
Yi Xuan turned his head and looked at Ye Su: "When we walked out of the gate of the demon world, the Holy Envoy Penglai was sitting outside the tower."
“…The rotating tower is still in the same place and will not disappear.” As the master of my sword sect spoke, his eyebrows and beard suddenly turned white, and several more wrinkles appeared on his face.
In order to speak, he did not enter into complete meditation.
Ye Su knelt on one knee outside the hall, her hand on the ground, releasing all her spiritual awareness to cover the entire Demon Lord Hall. She tried to unravel the formations inside and outside the hall.
However, this was not a realm she could reach. As soon as her consciousness touched the formation, she was attacked extremely strongly, and the overwhelming aura of destruction backfired on her.
Ye Su's consciousness quickly returned to its original position. He withdrew his hand abruptly and stared at the ground expressionlessly.
Ever since she ate the Bodhi fruit, her spiritual palace was shattered and her realm remained at the late stage of fusion, but her sea of consciousness was able to expand several times, forcibly introducing the power of the Bodhi fruit to temper her spiritual consciousness.
Ye Su had never competed with anyone, but he vaguely knew that his spiritual awareness was at least comparable to that of Taoist Feng Chen, who was at the Mahayana level. However, he could not even touch the formation of the Demon Lord's Palace.
—Is this the power of God
However, even the power of God has flaws, or it is not impossible to spy on and observe.
Ye Su once again controlled her spiritual sense to cover the Demon Lord's Palace. This time she did not touch the formation again. Instead, she used her spiritual sense to observe the direction of the formation in the entire Demon Lord's Palace. She could not solve it, but she could try to set up a formation, at least to delay and slow down the loss of power of the powerful people in the palace.
Since Kunlun wants to trap all the powerful people who have transcended tribulation from the demon world and the world of cultivation together, he either needs their strength or is worried that the powerful people will ruin his plan.
No matter which possibility it is, Ye Su cannot let this plan be realized easily.
Ye Su looked up at Yu Chengyue in the hall: "Can you come out again?"
Yu Chengyue stood up upon hearing this and walked slowly towards the door of the hall. There was only a threshold between him and Ye Su.
Yu Chengyue did not step out first, but raised his hand and pressed into the void. As expected, his hand could not reach out at all. The originally invisible void began to fluctuate with a formation, emitting a faint purple color.
Then he was bounced back a few steps, his fingers were burned to ashes. Yu Chengyue looked down at his fingers, and after a while the flesh grew back.
"This is not the formation we had before." Yu Chengyue said, "I can't get out."
Ye Su was not too surprised. This Demon Lord Hall was used by Xing Fu. If he was possessed by the so-called god, it would be very easy for him to do something in the hall.
She kept searching in her mind for all the array formation books she had read, but there was no talisman array or magic array related to absorbing power.
However, the light of this formation was not so strong that it could not be pulled away, at least not as strong as the talisman formation flowing in the sky above the Thousand Machine Sect.
Ye Su had reason to suspect that the so-called gods might not be in the world of cultivation, or that their power was not enough.
Otherwise, there would be no need for possession, and even the formation is not as strong as the talisman formation drawn by my junior brother.
Zang Qi handed the Luoyin to Ye Su and said, "My father said that a monk wants to talk to you."
"Ye Su, what happened in there?" It was the voice of Zhou Qi, the leader of our sword sect.
"The great man is trapped in the Demon Lord's Palace." Ye Su took over the conch sound, stood up and said, "There is something wrong with Kunlun."
Zhou Qi, who was outside the gate of the Demon Realm, was stunned: "Kunlun?"
"The Five Elements Sect's great master has died, and no one can solve the formation in the hall." Ye Su quickly recounted the situation in the hall, and then said, "Kunlun is related to the gods. For some unknown reason, they hope to consume the power of the three realms."
Zhou Qi of the Wujian Sect, who was opposite Luoyin, did not speak for a long time. It was not until Ye Su called out to him again that he spoke, his tone obviously much more obscure: "I know why."
Ye Su frowned: "Sect Master Zhou?"
"I just received news that an unknown secret realm appeared in the south, north, and west of the cultivation world. There was a purple light in the sky, and the skies above several directions have been connected together. It's a formation... Everyone's power is draining away at different speeds." Zhou Qi said with difficulty, holding the Luoyin in one hand and the communication jade plate in the other.
Opposite Zhou Qi was Xin Chenzi. Because the sect leader wanted to come to the Demon Realm in person, Xin Chenzi was kept in Wujian Sect by him.
When Xin Chenzi noticed something strange in the world of cultivation, he quickly collected information from other directions and obtained more than a dozen images of Shuohui. Without exception, the cultivators who were close to the secret realm lost their strength in an instant, and many of them turned directly into dry bones.
"What about the east direction?" Ye Su immediately found the clue in Zhou Qi's words.
"A deserted city secret realm and a small secret realm appeared in the east, but..." The leader of the Wujian Sect obviously didn't understand why, "There are no problems for the time being."
The secret realm of the deserted city and the small secret realm
"Where is the small secret realm?" Ye Su tilted her head slightly, "Outside Dinghai City?"
"How do you know?" Zhou Qi asked subconsciously.
Ye Su closed her eyes: "... That secret realm and the secret realm of the deserted city have one thing in common, there is a forest of stone tablets inside."
She put down Luoyin and turned to look at You Fushi: "When we first met in the small secret realm, what were you doing there?"
Ye Su remembered that he saw some broken stone tablets. Although the damage was not as serious as the stone tablet forest in the secret realm of the deserted city, they were indeed cracked.
"It's broken." You Fushi said in a low voice with some guilt, "It needs to be glued together."
He remembered that when he was in the secret realm, he threw Ye Su out with a wave of his hand.
Ye Su remembered something and continued to ask him: "Use cold crystal mud?"
"Um."
Ye Su felt a sense of relief in his heart. His junior fellow apprentice brother was indeed related to God, and it seemed that they were on the opposite side.
You Fushi glanced at her secretly, and was relieved when he saw that Ye Su didn't seem to pursue what happened at that time.
"Ye Su." The voice of Zhou Qi, the leader of our sword sect, came from the conch sound, "Is there something suppressed under the stone forest? Now all secret realms are open to people of all realms. I want to go to the secret realm of the deserted city and explore the situation inside."
Although the cultivators' spiritual energy will be completely absorbed as soon as they approach the secret realm, the two secret realms that suddenly appeared in the east have not shown any unusual movements for the time being and can be approached.
After hearing Zhou Qi's words, Ye Su finally remembered the situation when they repaired the stone tablet forest in the deserted city. She could draw the talismans on the stone tablets here to see if it could affect the formation of the Demon Lord's Palace.
"Master, be careful along the way."
She returned the conch shell to Zang Qi, took a few steps back, and looked at the four pillars outside the Demon Lord's Palace.
All the patterns on all the stone tablets appeared in Ye Su's mind. She actually couldn't understand them, and at that time she just deduced according to the patterns.
According to the rules of talismans, the more powerful the talisman, the harder it is to draw. In short, choose the complex ones.
Ye Su tilted her head to look at You Fushi and said, "Junior brother, lend me your sword."
You Fushi moved his fingertips and the Blood-Crying Sword flew in front of Ye Su. She stepped on the sword and began to draw talismans from the highest point of the pillar, working her way down. It took her two hours to draw on just one pillar.
There is no spiritual energy in the demon world, so she can only use her spiritual consciousness to outline the talismans and attach them to them.
Zang Liu also came back and stood beside You Fushi, looking around vigilantly, fearing that someone would suddenly appear and try to attack the Demon Lord.
One, two... until all four were filled, and Ye Su's spiritual sense was consumed by 99%.
Ye Su landed on the ground, her body swayed slightly, her spiritual energy was sluggish and obviously consumed too much. She exhaled lightly and stood firm, formed a formation with her hands, connected the talismans on the pillars, and tried to activate them.
The talismans painted on the pillars began to operate, but there seemed to be no changes in the hall, and the spiritual power of the powerful people inside was still decreasing.
Ye Su stared at the person inside without moving. Was it because she chose the wrong talisman? Or was it because the talisman on the stone tablet was useless against the formation of the Demon Lord Hall
After a long time, Yi Xuan suddenly said: "It works!"
He was the first to sense that the rate at which the demonic energy in the hall was decreasing was slowing down, although it was not very obvious.
Ye Su waited for another half an hour, and as expected, he discovered that the speed at which the spiritual power of the powerful cultivators inside was decreasing was gradually slowing down.
Although it has slowed down, the spiritual power is still decreasing.
Unless they can break the formation or get out of it, it is only a matter of time before the power of everyone in the hall is exhausted.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Su asked the powerful cultivators inside: "Seniors, does anyone know where the tower spirit of the rotating tower is?"
Hehuan Sect Master Zu Chengyi opened his eyes and said, "Where did you hear about the Tower Spirit of the Rotating Tower? I don't know this thing."
Ye Su turned her gaze to the Wujian Sect's master who had asked her to find Peng Lai before. This master seemed to be the oldest among them and the one closest to the Divine Death Stage.
“I’ve heard that there is a tower spirit on the ninth floor. Have you been to the ninth floor?” The great master of my sword sect spoke slowly.
"I haven't been there." Ye Su did not mention the note she saw in Penglai, but only said, "I saw it in a book on the second floor."
The Grandmaster of the Wujian Sect looked at Ye Su and said, "If Penglai disappears as you said, the cultivation world, no, perhaps the three worlds will be plunged into turmoil this time."
He suddenly moved and took out a pill that Ye Su was familiar with from his Qiankun bag.
—It’s Wuji Dan.
With just such a simple action, a few more wrinkles appeared on the face of the master of our sword sect.
"I will try to transcend the tribulation and ascend to heaven. With this elixir, I can increase my chances of success. It has never worked before. It was you who brought this elixir here." The Grandmaster of the Wujian Sect smiled and said, "If I succeed, I can break this formation."
"If you fail, all your spiritual power will be absorbed, and I'm afraid it will help the opponent's power." Ye Su's eyes fell on the hand of the master of the Wujian Sect. "Since it didn't work before, I guess your heart is still in the world of cultivation, or..."
"I'm not sure about ascending." He Huan Sect's master Zu Chengyi added. He looked at the great man from Wu Jian Sect and said, "Senior, forget it. It's not the most critical moment yet. We can all hold on a little longer."
The Grandmaster of my sword sect tightly grasped the Wuji Pill, but eventually put it away, it was useless.
"We need to go back to the cultivation world." Ye Su said, "Seniors, please stay here for a while."
Zang Liu and Zang Qi were left here to watch over the Demon Lord's Palace, and Ye Su took away Luo Yin.
The most urgent task should be to find the tower spirit, but even the powerful people in the cultivation world don’t know about the tower spirit, let alone Ye Su.
"Wait." In the hall, Tu You, who was sitting opposite the five great cultivators, suddenly called out to them. She looked at Yi Xuan, "Are you Ping Shulan's bloodline?"
Diao fled back to the demon world and ran into Tu You.
This city guard was in a bad mood and liked to kill people. Mo was no exception. When he met her, he searched her mind directly and found out that Yi Xuan was Ping Shulan's bloodline, so he killed Diao.
Yi Xuan turned his head and glanced at her without saying anything.
"I didn't realize you were her bloodline at the beginning." Tu You tried to smile, but only a terrifying arc appeared on his face. "Since you have been possessed by the devil, as long as you can cultivate to the Mahayana realm, you can completely awaken the devil's bloodline. If Ping Shulan has left any memories, you will know them clearly. But, unfortunately... without Ping Shulan's mental formula, you can't cultivate to the Mahayana realm."
Yi Xuan and Ye Su looked at each other quickly, and he took out a secret book of the mind and said, "Is this what you are talking about?"
Tu You was stunned for a moment, and then she started laughing wildly again. After laughing for a while, she said, "That's right. Where did you get it? It seems that Ping Shulan did use the blood of the Demon Lord to leave something for you."
Mental formula, pagoda spirit... Perhaps Penglai already knew something, even though the chief master said that they had lost the ability to deduce.
More than 20 years ago, Ping Shulan, Kunlun's most amazing disciple and the saint died together, and Peng Lai also lost his ability to deduce. Something must have happened at this point.
Ye Su lowered her eyes. Considering the changes in Kunlun now, she was afraid that Ping Shulan’s death was not that simple.
Apart from Zang Liu who had stayed in Pinghai due to the closure of the gate to the demon world, Ping Shulan was the only powerful person who had survived the period before and after the God's Death.
Tu You glanced at Yu Chengyue standing beside him, stopped smiling, and said seriously, "If you want to quickly cultivate to the Mahayana stage, go to the Demon Vein Mountain. There is the most concentrated demonic energy there."
She looked at Ye Su and You Fushi and said, "With these two here, it shouldn't be a problem to eliminate the demons surrounding Demon Vein Mountain."
"Where is Demon Vein Mountain?" Ye Su asked. She changed her mind and decided to let Yi Xuan advance first.
"From the north of the Demon Lord's Palace, walk forward for a thousand miles and you will reach a cliff. The demonic energy there is no less than that in the Demon Lord's Palace."
Yi Xuan nodded to Ye Su, and the three of them immediately rushed to Demon Vein Mountain.
However, they arrived at the cliff that Tu You mentioned. The three of them stood on it. Ye Su frowned. Not to mention the thick and dense demonic energy rising into the sky, she didn't sense any demonic energy here at all.
"Junior Brother Yi, can you feel the demonic energy?" Ye Su asked. Can the demonic energy of the Demon Vein Mountain choose people
"No." Yi Xuan shook his head. "I didn't feel the demonic energy. Is Tu You lying?"
He still remembered the city guards in Huicheng clearly.
"Yu Chengyue is also in the Demon Lord's Palace." Ye Su said to Yi Xuan, "Tu You hopes that we can find a way to break the formation."
Ye Su suddenly walked forward and jumped down.
"Senior Sister!" Yi Xuan was unable to stop her, and as a result, You Fu Shi next to him also jumped down without hesitation following Ye Su.
Yi Xuan could only hold the heavy sword tightly in his hand and jump down.
A moment later, the three of them stood on a mountain without any demonic energy, surrounded by a pile of demon corpses.
Yi Xuan bent down and touched the bodies of these demons: "They died only two days ago. The sword wounds smell like the Seven Deadly Swords."
It was Lu Chenhan and the leader of the Wanfo Sect, Le Ji, who were responsible.
"Do you feel familiar with this place?" Ye Su turned and asked Yi Xuan.
"... Qianjimen spiritual vein." Yi Xuan looked around and said.
The demonic energy here disappeared completely, just like the spiritual vein in the back mountain of Qianjimen.
"It looks like someone has set up the same formation here." Ye Su walked forward a few steps and released his spiritual sense to cover the Demon Vein Mountain. The formation here was somewhat different from the one at the back mountain of Qianji Gate.
The reason why the Qianji Gate's spiritual vein was imprisoned was because the gate-protecting formation itself was strong enough, so the several formations within the formation relied on the power of the gate-protecting formation to isolate and imprison the entire spiritual vein.
The Demon Vein Mountain has no formation support, so it is a completely new formation for Ye Su.
"Junior Brother Yi, let your demonic energy circle around the Demon Vein Mountain." Ye Su said. She wanted to find the center of the formation.
Just like in Qianjimen, Junior Brother should be able to break through the core of the formation.
Ye Su's spiritual sense has completely covered the Demon Vein Mountain, just waiting for Yi Xuan's demonic energy to make a circle here.
Yi Xuan stepped on the Chongming Sword, suddenly stood up, and flew high above the Demon Vein Mountain, releasing all the demonic energy and continuing to spread it.
As soon as the evil spirit touched the mountain, it was immediately absorbed. Ye Su's consciousness followed the place where Yi Xuan's evil spirit disappeared, constantly wandering around to observe the formation. If it didn't work once, he would try twice...
You Fushi stood quietly beside Ye Su, and the Blood-Crying Sword was also as quiet as a chicken. Occasionally, a shadow of Blood-Crying would emerge from the sword, watching quietly.
"Ye Su." You Fushi stared at the two of them working together for a long time, and finally called her name.
"What's wrong?" Ye Su still paid some attention to You Fushi, thinking that something had happened to him, so she asked.
You Fushi took out a pill from his own world and fed it to Ye Su.
Ye Su glanced at the pill and swallowed it without asking any questions. Immediately, his sea of consciousness felt warm and began to flow rapidly, and his spiritual consciousness recovered to 70%.
She asked, "Is there anything for Junior Brother Yi?"
A junior fellow student: “…”
