On the way to sneak into the Ice Demon's territory, Wu Qing remained silent the whole way. He was really scared. He was afraid that if he opened his mouth, the issue of his ancestors would be brought up again!
The water demon's territory is still barren and desolate everywhere. Even though the territory is full of lakes, it is still very creepy.
Because the lakes here are mostly blood-red and surrounded by rugged rocks, it is like hell on earth.
Wu Qing floated over the blood lake and galloped towards the northeast. Jiang Yuebai still turned into a little beast and lay on his shoulder.
His method of concealment is the most advanced among the human race's ghost cultivators. It is easy for him to hide Jiang Yuebai, including hiding himself.
After digesting the few magic fish he had just caught in the lake, Jiang Yuebai stretched out his claws, bent down, and stretched his muscles.
In order to sneak into the Ice Demon Territory before it was completely closed, she didn't eat much along the way.
"Why don't you speak? Isn't it uncomfortable to keep your mouth closed? Oh, I forgot, you don't have a mouth, so how do you speak without a mouth? Where does the sound come from?"
Wu Qing: …
"Hey! Lord Moon Demon, we're here!"
Jiang Yuebai looked up and saw a vast snowfield at the end of the Blood Lake. It was boundless and the mountains formed entirely of ice were layered one after another, revealing a moist ice-blue color under the sunlight.
Behind the mountains and rivers, a majestic and magnificent ice palace is hidden in the wind and snow, pure and flawless, holy and glorious.
This scene was totally out of tune with everything filthy and evil about the demon race. Instead, it was very similar to the painting of the human race's fairy palace that she had seen in her brother's library.
"A demon is coming! Lord Moon Demon, hold on tight!"
Wu Qing suddenly dived into the blood lake under his feet. His body made of magic mist did not splash any water, and protected Jiang Yuebai hiding underwater.
Magically, when Jiang Yuebai looked up, he could actually see what was happening above the blood lake from below, and hear the sound of ice crystals colliding from far away.
A woman covered in snow, in white clothes and white hair, stepped barefoot into the water and rushed past their heads. Wherever her toes touched, ice flowers immediately bloomed.
The woman was a demon, with ice blue eyes and icy demon horns that curved upwards from her shoulders, but compared to the other demons, she looked almost exactly like a human.
Jiang Yuebai suddenly remembered that he didn't know where he had read it or heard someone say that the demons transformed into human forms, and some of the monsters were also human-like. In fact, they were not imitating humans, but gods.
God created man in his own image, so man is naturally gifted in spiritual practice, which attracts other creatures to follow suit.
"Lord Moon Demon, we have to hurry."
Wu Qing said something, and then he and Jiang Yuebai sped up. They followed the ice demon in front of them and stepped onto the ice field one after another. After walking for only a dozen miles, they heard bursts of ice cracking sounds, echoing throughout the area.
Countless ice flowers appeared in the air and spread wildly around. In the blink of an eye, the entire Ice Demon territory was blocked under the ice layer. Ice Demons from all directions rushed towards the palace in the mountains.
Immediately afterwards, the earth shook and the surrounding temperature dropped sharply. The mist in Wu Qing's body was quickly frozen, and her movements became slow. Jiang Yuebai also felt the biting cold, like countless steel needles piercing her body.
"The trial ground of the Ice Demon Saint must be open. Lord Moon Demon, do you still want to go there?" Wu Qing struggled to resist the cold.
Jiang Yuebai breathed white air on his shoulders and rubbed his claws, his body covered with frost.
"Take a closer look. If my brother isn't here, leave."
Helplessly, Wu Qing had to continue leading the way. He was very familiar with the terrain of every place in the entire Demon Realm. In addition, his ghost body could pass through walls, so it would not be a problem for him to lead Jiang Yuebai.
They passed directly through the iceberg, made many turns, avoided the guards, and reached the halfway point of the iceberg on the side of the ice palace.
Looking from a high place, you can just see the central square of the Ice Palace.
The ancient magic runes on the eight ice pillars flashed with cold light. The ground in the central square collapsed inwards little by little, revealing a vortex formed by countless ice chips and glaciers below. It exuded an extreme chill and it was unknown where it led to.
When Wu Qing saw the vortex, his eyes suddenly lit up. That was the entrance to the Ice Demon Trial Ground, and inside it was also the core of one of the eight realms of the entire Demon Realm. As long as half of the cores of the Demon Realm could be destroyed, the entire Demon Realm would collapse and be destroyed.
Now, in the entire Demon Realm, six of the eight places are guarded by Mahayana Heavenly Demons, and only the core areas of the Water Demon and Ice Demon territories do not have Mahayana Heavenly Demons.
This is also why he disguised himself as a fog demon, just to have a chance to sneak into the water demon trial site and destroy it.
But it is difficult to actually do this!
Wu Qing glanced at Jiang Yuebai beside her. If she could go in and cause some damage...
Just this point, he couldn't do it. He was a human who turned into a ghost, not a demon. The tribulation he endured would definitely attract thunder from the sky, and then all would be exposed.
So when he saw the gate to the trial ground, no matter how excited he was, he had to calm down.
At this time, the periphery of the square was densely packed with Ice Demons in the Fa Mo Realm, and more than thirty in the Yuan Mo Realm, all of them half-kneeling on the ground, lowering their heads and waiting.
Eight ice demons in the realm of refining emptiness stood under eight ice pillars respectively, infusing their own demonic energy into the ice pillars to keep the gate leading to the trial land open.
The Ice Demon Tribe does not have a demon at the fusion level, but the Water Demon Tribe does have a fusion demon who will take care of the Ice Demon Tribe.
Nine ice demons wearing white cloaks walked out of the demon group and stood in front of each ice pillar. Eight of them were at the early stage of True Demon realm.
The extra one stood alone, shorter than the other ice demons, and didn't look like he was at the level of a true demon yet, the hood of his cloak covered his face, and no demon horns were visible on his shoulders.
Not an ice demon
Wu Qing scratched his head in confusion.
The entrance to the trial ground was completely opened, and the eight Void Ice Demons had a hard time maintaining it.
"You guys come in quickly!"
The real demons pulled down their cloaks and jumped into the whirlpool in the center of the square one after another, until the eight ice demons in front had jumped in. Finally, the smaller one pulled off his cloak, revealing a cold face.
Wu Qing and Jiang Yuebai, who looked like a little animal beside him, both opened their eyes wide and stuck their heads forward.
Wu Qing was surprised that there was actually someone in the Ice Demon tribe, and that she was allowed to enter the Ice Demon's trial ground.
What surprised Jiang Yuebai was that the blurry shadow she had seen in her dream during her twelve years of sleep suddenly became clear.
It's her!
It’s this sweet-smelling young lady!
An inexplicable impulse prompted Jiang Yuebai to leap up from halfway up the mountain, turning into a gust of wind and rushing towards the Ice Palace, as fast as lightning, and Wu Qing was too late to stop him.
At this time, the trial ground was opened, and the demonic energy around the Ice Palace was frantically sucked away. Except for the protective barrier outside the entire Ice Demon territory, there was no protection around the Ice Palace.
Jiang Yuebai jumped up and down a few times, kicked off the ice palace wall with all four hooves, and jumped into the palace wall nimbly.
The demons all looked up, but were stepped on on the faces and heads by Jiang Yuebai, using him as a springboard to quickly approach the center of the square.
The Ice Demon in the Void Refinement Stage saw her, but was unable to free his hands to stop her. Only the Yuan Demons around her took quick action, shooting out several sharp ice spikes from their bodies to attack and kill Jiang Yuebai.
The demons were in chaos, rushing around to kill Jiang Yuebai.
Jiang Yuebai was small and nimble. He spun, jumped, kicked left and scratched right, knocking down a group of ice demons and breaking through the encirclement.
In the chaos and crowds, many demons accidentally fell into the icy abyss.
Lu Nanzhi stood at the edge of the ice abyss and looked over in confusion, and saw a mirage demon that looked very much like Youmeng swooping down from mid-air.
When their eyes met, Lu Nanzhi's heart skipped a beat. He instinctively turned around and opened his arms towards Jiang Yuebai, wanting to catch her.
At this time, the Lianxu Ice Demon who was closest to Lu Nanzhi suddenly attacked, and a gust of wind pushed Lu Nanzhi into the ice abyss.
Lu Nanzhi fell with his eyes wide open, and Jiang Yuebai also rushed down without slowing down.
Before being swallowed by the whirlpool, Youmeng, raised by Lu Nanzhi, emerged from her shoulder, bared its teeth in anger, and swung its claws viciously.
Three claw marks flashed in the air. Jiang Yuebai groaned, and the man and two beasts fell into the whirlpool and disappeared.
The vortex shook violently, and the eight Void-Refining Ice Demons fell to the ground. They stretched their heads to look over and saw that the entrance to the trial ground was closed. Lying in all directions under the ice abyss were the Ice Demons that had accidentally fallen just now.
The only thing is, that hateful mirage is missing!
besides!
