Thirty-sixth level outside the sky.
Vast chaos and entangled mist.
Tai Sutian was in this boundless chaos, rising and falling like a soap bubble wrapped in the mist of chaos.
In this vast and infinite world, Saint Nuwa is sitting cross-legged on a bed of clouds, her eyes slightly closed, and the endless aura of the great avenue is flowing around her.
Suddenly.
She opened her eyes slightly, looking at the lotus pond not far away, and her curved willow-leaf eyebrows frowned slightly.
Under the breeze, the water surface of the lotus pond is sparkling, and wisps of mist are rising, making it look particularly quiet and elegant.
It is said to be a lotus pond, but in fact there is only one lotus in this lotus pond.
The lotus flower is as pure as jade, as white as flawless, in full bloom, as big as a sea bowl, exuding a faint fragrance that is intoxicating.
The strange thing is that in the center of the lotus, there is a little colorful light, as if all the colors in the world are gathered into the heart of the lotus.
But at this moment, Saint Nuwa was looking at not this lotus, but a golden gourd beside the lotus pond.
This golden gourd is trembling slightly, as if it is fearful and sad.
The last time the golden gourd looked like this was during the lich war.
Every time an important figure in the demon clan dies, this golden gourd will tremble violently.
With a slight thought in her mind, the golden gourd flew up in the air and landed on the edge of the cloud bed. Then the cover of the gourd opened on its own, and a ray of white light rose from the mouth of the gourd, which was more than four or five feet high.
Above the white light, a large flag hangs, the light is divided into five colors and reflects thousands of lights.
This flag is called the "Monster Calling Flag".
In the past, Saint Nuwa first attained enlightenment and became the first saint of heavenly virtues. She opened up Tai Sutian as her own dojo in the chaos of the outer world. Countless immortals, demons, witches and gods came to congratulate her and listen to the saint's way.
This demon-beckoning flag was a congratulatory gift from the demon emperor Jun at that time.
As soon as this flag comes out, no demon clan in the world dares to disobey!
From this point of view alone, this large banner is definitely more than just a spiritual treasure.
It is closely related to the destiny of the demon clan, and is closely connected with almost every demon clan.
The Demon King dedicated this treasure to Saint Nuwa, and his intention was nothing more than to use it to closely connect the demon clan with Saint Nuwa.
It's a pity that Saint Nuwa always regarded this golden gourd as a decoration, and never used it once until the destruction of the demon clan's heaven.
At this moment, Saint Nuwa released the banner to attract demons. After a moment of sensing, he already knew what happened.
There was something brilliant in her beautiful eyes.
"The one who died was actually Yingzhao?"
"Ordinarily, as long as he stays in Beiju Luzhou, his life should be safe..."
"Who is plotting against him?"
Saint Nuwa murmured to herself.
Since the destruction of the Demon Clan's Heavenly Palace and the shattering of the Zhoutian Star Formation, the Demon Clan has lost the confidence to dominate the ancient world and can only survive in Luzhou, Beiju.
During this period, the Yingzhao Demon Saint protected a large number of demon clans and opened up "cave paradises" in the poisonous miasma, allowing many little demons to survive.
This move has meritorious service in the ancient world, and the way of heaven will also send meritorious deeds, and it will not be indifferent just because of its deep karma.
Therefore, as long as he stays in Beiju Luzhou and accumulates slowly, there will be a day when he can wash away all his karma and be able to roam the world freely like the demon saint Bai Ze.
As long as you don't seek death, you won't suffer the backlash of karma.
However, Yingzhao Demon Saint did not wait for that day and left Beiju Luzhou.
Then, he was gone.
"Who's plotting?"
"Kunpeng or Bai Ze, or those saints?"
Saint Nuwa was a little confused.
She wanted to find out.
After the death of the Yingzhao Demon Saint, the demon tribe in Luzhou, Beiju, was leaderless, and it was very likely that they would be exploited by someone with ulterior motives.
Although she does not want to interfere with the affairs of the demon clan, there are many people in the demon clan who believe in her. From ancient times to the present, her incense in the demon clan has never ceased.
You must know that to this day, even the humans she created rarely worship her.
Looking at the four major continents, only Nanbu continent still has a little bit of her incense, and it is still pitiful. Compared with several other saints, it is just a drop in the ocean.
Of course, she knew the reason for this.
The human race is not a long-lived race, not to mention that at the end of the Lich Tribulation in the ancient times, the human race was massacred by the two lich races because of the holy blood in their bodies. Almost all of the original human race were dead.
Coupled with the enlightenment of the human race by various saints and great religions, few people within the human race still remember her as the human race's holy mother.
This is also the reason why she only created humans but did not establish religion.
After all, with all the merit of creation and no virtue of education, it is already remarkable that her incense can continue from ancient times to the present in a short-lived race like the human race.
But in comparison, those demon clans who have never received her favor but have worshiped her for generations are also more rare and valuable.
Therefore, if the demon clan encounters external dangers instead of seeking death, Saint Nuwa does not mind protecting the little demons in Beiju Luzhou.
It can be regarded as repaying that incense love.
If the long-dead demon emperor Jun knew her thoughts, he would be so depressed that he would vomit blood.
Since the establishment of the Demon Court, he has tried every means to get involved with the brothers Fuxi and Nuwa, and even respected them as Emperor Xi and Emperor Wa.
Especially after Nuwa attained enlightenment and became a saint, he would go to Taisutian every three days and even offer demon-calling flags, spiritual treasures with important meanings, just to ask Saint Nuwa to protect the demon clan.
Now this saint, who had rejected him countless times, felt pity for the offerings of those little demons, and took the initiative to protect the remaining demon clan.
Sage Nuwa counted with her fingers, but she felt that the secret of heaven was obscure, cause and effect were chaotic, and there was no way to calculate.
She didn't even know who killed Yingzhao, nor why Yingzhao suddenly left Beiju Luzhou.
"Measure the calamity, measure the calamity..."
Saint Nuwa sighed softly.
She called her maid Caifeng, "Go to the ancient world and find out who is plotting against the demon clan and who killed Yingzhao."
Yingzhao has fallen?
Caifeng raised her head in surprise.
Immediately he bowed his head again and said respectfully: "I sincerely obey your Majesty's decree!"
…
A quasi-sage great power fell, and heaven and earth also lamented over it.
The dark wind was howling over the North Sea, and dark clouds were rolling in, covering the sun, moon and stars, making it impossible to see even one's fingers.
Many people with profound spiritual knowledge in the ancient world have sensed it.
Countless immortals, demons, gods and witches from all walks of life came here to inspect the situation, but they could only infer from the remaining aura that an extremely profound and powerful person had self-destructed his soul here...
The art of jade breaking in the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court is widely spread.
It has almost become a tradition of the demon clan.
To this day, there are still many monsters who, when defeated and certain to die, use self-destruction to destroy their enemies to the maximum extent possible.
It's just that the person using the Jade Breaking Technique now is a powerful one.
And it is very likely that he is the Yingzhao Demon Saint who disappeared without a trace after running away from Beihai a few years ago!
The immortals and gods were inexplicably shocked, and their minds were swaying.
When was the last time a great power fell?
It seems that it is still time for the lich to measure his calamity!
The ancient world has been peaceful for too long.
Now that a quasi-sage great power has fallen in Beihai, the entire prehistoric world has become lively in an instant.
Countless immortals and gods were eagerly discussing what impact Yingzhao's death would have.
Can the two lich and witch clans in Beiju Luzhou maintain their current situation?
Will the demon clan simply perish if they lose the protection of this quasi-sage?
What more people are concerned about is, who is the person who forced Yingzhao Demon Saint to self-destruct his soul?
…
"Yingzhao has been fleeing far north since that day. It seems he is going to Beiming... Could it be the Kunpeng ancestor who killed him?"
In the Biyou Palace, Taoist Duobao sat cross-legged behind the bluestone chessboard, making moves while casting inquiring glances at the leader of Tongtian Cult.
"You ask me, who should I ask?"
Leader Tongtian said angrily: "Don't you know..."
"Disciple knows." Taoist Duobao replied quickly: "The secrets of heaven are obscure and cause and effect are chaotic. Even a saint can't deduce it, right?"
"I know you still come here to ask, asking for a beating!"
Leader Tongtian flicked his finger in the air angrily.
Taoist Duobao screamed in pain, and a small bump quickly bulged on his head.
"Are you really going to fight?"
Taoist Duobao stretched out his hand to touch the small swelling and found that it was still not going away. He immediately said in a dumbfounded voice: "Master, please stop joking with your apprentice. This will make people see how unsightly your face is."
Besides, the disciple asked you this question, isn’t it also because you have had contact with Patriarch Kunpeng before? "
"Um?"
Leader Tongtian glanced at him.
"Grilled wings."
Taoist Duobao reminded in a low voice.
Not long after the Yingzhao Demon Saint escaped that day, Yu Yuan came to join them with the Chaos Bell, and then everyone returned to Jin'ao Island with the help of the power of Qujing Ark.
While the Ark in the Curved Realm was traveling through the void rift, Yu Yuan, in order to express his gratitude to everyone, specially took out the Enlightenment Tea Tree, Star Fruit, and Secret Roasted Kunpeng Wings, and directly held a small-scale, but extremely high-standard event. All the attendees were full of praise for the feast.
"Ahem."
Leader Tongtian coughed twice, then changed the subject and said, "Where's that little guy Yu Yuan?"
"You should still be in seclusion, right?" Taoist Duobao replied: "After he came back that day, he went directly back to his Qianyuan Palace, and never came out again... It seems that he was in Beiju Luzhou this time I’m stimulated and want to practice hard.”
After talking about it, Taoist Duobao's voice became a little pleased.
"That's really rare."
Leader Tongtian also nodded.
"Master, you haven't answered my question yet."
"If you tell me you don't know and still ask, you're asking for a beating!"
…
Penglai Holy Land.
Yu Yuan used the Chaos Bell to cover up the secret of heaven and returned to Qianyuan Palace as quietly as when he left.
He first checked the several formations he had set up when he left, and was relieved after finding that they were not triggered.
No matter when, the fall of a quasi-sage is enough to alarm the entire prehistoric world.
Yu Yuan didn't want others to know that he did it.
The chaos of the heavens during the calamity also created the conditions for him to conceal the matter.
So that day, he rushed back to Penglai with everyone, then refused Master Jin Ling's intention to talk to the Holy Mother, and hid in Qianyuan Palace under the pretext of seclusion.
After that, he quietly slipped out of Penglai with the help of the Chaos Bell, traveled through space to the North Sea, and stopped the Yingzhao Demon Saint.
This gave him a perfect alibi and an explanation for his absence from the scene for several years.
As long as no one notices that he has left Qianyuan Palace, no one will suspect him.
After all, in everyone's eyes, whoever can kill a quasi-sage must be another quasi-sage.
He went to all this trouble just in case, so as not to be noticed by interested people.
'Now that Yingzhao has just fallen, it's not time to come out of seclusion... Taking advantage of this time, it's just a good time to test how much the ability to travel through time and space has improved. '
After making up his mind, Yu Yuan summoned the Chaos Bell.
"Dang!"
The big clock vibrated slightly and emitted a melodious chime.
A colorful chaotic divine light flashed through, and Yu Yuan disappeared in an instant.
After he disappeared, a slim figure slowly emerged from the air, with a pale golden skirt trailing to the ground, her hair combed into a gorgeous bun, a golden ring around her neck, and some golden lines between her eyebrows, making her look luxurious. There is a lot of heroic spirit in it.
At this moment, she stared quietly at the place where Yu Yuan disappeared, with a deep doubt flashing in her eyes.
