"Lu Huaming and I always felt that something was wrong, so we rushed to the central part of Northern Juluzhou. As a result, we were attacked by a large number of magical beasts near the Zhixie Mountains in the central part. After we finally repelled them, we planned to return, but we were entangled by countless demons again. Finally, two Taiyi Realm Demon Lords came together. In order to save me, Lu Huaming was seriously injured by the demons, and he..." Gu Hualing couldn't continue when he got here.
Shen Luo's brows were twisted into knots, and he looked at Yuan Tiangang and Cheng Yaojin with a serious look.
"According to what Gu Hualing said, the demons did not stop looting, but the blood and energy they prepared for Chi You are enough. Now the entire Northern Juluzhou can be said to have fallen. Brother Lu, he..." Shen Luo gritted his teeth and pondered.
Those monsters still have the possibility of escaping, but what will happen to the ordinary creatures living in Northern Juluzhou? As for Lu Huaming, Shen Luo didn't dare to think about his fate.
"The eternal lamp left by Lu Huaming in the Imperial Observatory is still on." At this time, Yuan Tiangang suddenly spoke.
"Then he is still alive?" Shen Luo was overjoyed.
"If he has died, the eternal lamp will go out. If only his body is destroyed, his soul should fly back to the Sitianjian under the guidance of the eternal lamp. But now neither of these two situations has occurred." Yuan Tiangang said.
"Okay, I'll go and rescue him right away." Shen Luo clenched his fist and said happily.
“Don’t be too happy just yet. Although his eternal lamp has not gone out, the flame has turned green. I guess his soul has been infected by evil spirits, and he may have turned into a demon spirit.” Yuan Tiangang said.
"What is a demon spirit?" Shen Luo asked.
"What we encountered in the central part of Uttarakuru was something similar to a Yin object. It had no entity and no intelligence, but it was full of demonic energy. It could not be killed unless the demon core in its brain was destroyed. It seemed that it was an ordinary person or an ordinary creature when it was alive. After its blood and energy were sucked dry, its body decayed, leaving only its three souls and seven spirits infected by the demonic energy. Although its strength was not strong, there were too many of them." Gu Hualing explained.
"It's not just them who have been polluted. Some monsters and creatures have also been infected and turned into monsters that only know how to kill," Cheng Yaojin added.
"You all said that those demon spirits are generally not powerful, so I believe that Lu Huaming was definitely not made into a demon spirit. At least as long as the demons are not stupid, they will not waste resources like this. Whether it is Lu Huaming's own strength or his background in the Tang Dynasty government, he is worth their use, so I believe he will be fine." Shen Luo said firmly.
Hearing this, Gu Hualing's eyes lit up.
"National Master, I have decided not to go to the Heavenly Palace with you. I want to go to Beijuluzhou to rescue Lu Huaming." Shen Luo looked at Yuan Tiangang and said.
Yuan Tiangang nodded without any surprise, as if he had expected this.
"It's my turn as the master to go..." Cheng Yaojin said with a guilty look on his face.
It was not easy for Cheng Yaojin to survive after the previous incident. His cultivation was greatly damaged now, and it would probably be difficult for him to recover to his original level within a hundred years.
"Duke, there is no need to do this. You can rest assured. I promise to bring Lu Huaming back safe and sound." Shen Luo patted his chest and said.
