However, when I came to the ancestral land of the Earth Demon Clan, I found that there were no ordinary people’s homes within a radius of 300 miles. The mountains, forests and hills were intertwined, and the geographical terrain was relatively complex. Most places were barren of grass. It could be said that there were only It's just a demon city.
Where did the two million living beings and blood food come from to be sacrificed to the hell Shuras?
"Li Xiu, come here and take a look!" Suddenly Zhuge Sheng shouted from a distance.
Li Xiuhe rushed over after hearing the sound and found that there was a secret door at the end of the altar. He needed to use the machine message to control the switch. Zhuge Sheng seemed to have found the message switch and opened the machine box. There was a sound immediately, and he could see only one side. The iron wall, which was about ten feet and fifteen feet wide, slowly sank, and his vision suddenly became clearer. At the same time, a strong smell of blood and evil spirit rushed towards his face.
"It seems that this altar is not a real altar, but is only used to hold some rituals before the sacrifice. The real altar is inside!" praised.
With that said, several people walked in hand in hand.
It was late at night outside at this time, and there were lighting objects such as luminous stones and moonlight trees in the underground space, so they didn't feel any violation. However, when Li Xiu and the others entered behind the iron wall, the light suddenly brightened.
The space behind this iron wall is not big, but it is not too small. It is indeed an altar, circular in shape, with a diameter of about ninety-nine and eighty-one feet. There is no ceiling on it, but it is open-air, and you can clearly see the night sky. Flowing clouds and stars. The light here is actually the light from the stars, which obviously has a powerful formation.
Not even one of the top human sects has such a skill. It is said that in the prosperous times of cultivating immortals, if the seeds from the lower world can be selected by the gods in the upper world, the back door will be opened, and they can be blessed by star power all the time, which is much faster than the cultivation speed of breathing and refining spiritual energy.
"What an ancient method for the Earth Demon to turn the lamp!" Praising said in a deep voice, "This formation has been almost lost during the period of the seven sects. Unexpectedly, the Earth Demon Clan can actually master it. If what is expected is true, this formation will The altar should be the place where Di Chen, the ancestor of the Earth Demon Clan, worships the evil god and practices peace."
It stands to reason that there must be a stone statue of the evil god here, but it has been bulldozed, leaving some traces, and there must be more than one stone statue.
"It is true that they summoned the evil gods to perform sacrifices here. There is still fresh blood and resentment of living beings here! But judging from the entire underground space, they retreated in an orderly manner and it was not a temporary move!" Zhuge Sheng said .
"Where do you think they will move?" Kuazan asked.
Zhuge Sheng said: "It should be in the suburbs north of Dayun City, under the abyss where Brother Li and Di Xi fought."
"Where was the hell Shura born?" Hearing the words, he was noncommittal.
Li Xiu thought for a while and said: "Where else can they hide except that place? Summoning evil gods is not allowed even by the demon clan. It is tantamount to betraying the ancestors and is despised by all major demon clans. , of course, if no one makes a big fuss, I think that’s it! The masters of the Earth Demon Clan’s ancestral land have no place to hide except retreating there. Although there are mansions and fiefdoms of the Earth Demon Clan in the capital of Gyeonggi, I estimate that after Di Xun's move, once the incident occurs, the leader of the Di Mo clan who stayed in the important area of Gyeonggi will definitely be captured by the imperial guards. If anyone in the imperial court has such ability, except for the supervisor Tiantai, the only one who has the ability is the front secretary. The two divisions of the Imperial Guard and the Military Division can touch them. The Heavenly Governor should also have that kind of power, but after so many things happened, we have long seen through that the so-called Heavenly Governor is a real licker, and the so-called supervisory repair The Immortal World is only aimed at the human race cultivating the immortal world, but they dare not take care of the demon race!"
Li Xiu's speculation is almost the same as what Zhou Guangshun did after he summoned the evil god against the ancestor of the Earth Demon Clan. If Zhou Guangshun were here, he would probably look at Li Xiu with admiration.
Praise hesitated for a moment and said, "I wonder if you have ever thought about this question?"
"What's the problem?" Li Xiu asked.
He praised: "Zhou Guangshun went north according to the order, and the emperor personally met you and asked you to break into the capital and guide the way. It is equivalent to saying that what they were doing at the same time was to suppress the public opinion of all parties, avoid large-scale disputes, and bring down the nine second-class nobles. The spearhead directed at the Immortal Cultivation World in Shangbei County or Hanchen Academy is pointed at you alone. This is well known to all, right?"
"Not bad!" Li Xiu nodded.
"Then here comes the first question. Counting Ma Xingkong, there are only three people who blocked the road and guarded the gates you killed. After Qu Ji and Di Chen were killed, the second-class nobles ceased their activities, and even this The Demon City is actually empty, what are they running from? Are they running away from your Li Xiu's revenge or the court's liquidation?" Kuazan asked.
"This..." Li Xiujing hesitated a little when he asked.
Seeing Li Xiu's expression, Kuazan knew that Li Xiu should have thought of the crux of the problem. Said: "According to logic, the emperor personally spoke about this matter and Zhou Guangshun carried it out all the way. So, no matter how big the fight between you and the second-class nobles, it is only with the tacit approval of the emperor! So Di Lai summoned a Hell Shura, what crime are you guilty of? Even if they summon evil powers at the level of Demon Emperor Chiyou and Demon Ancestor of Purgatory, who are ten times more cruel and powerful, to deal with you, that is still their ability, right?"
As soon as these words came out, both Li Xiu and Zhuge Sheng were stunned.
Well, it was Emperor Ji Yuan who opened the door to this matter and sent the dignified former General Zhou Guangshun to carry out the matter, so there was only one purpose between Li Xiu and the second-class nobles, and that was to kill each other. As for the means used, the emperor will not care about it and does not need to care about it. It can even be said that during this period, Li Xiu really went to Beihai to find the eye of the sea of lifelessness and released Emperor Gouchen. That was also Li Xiu's ability. On the other hand, the same is true for the second-class nobles.
So, after the second-class nobles were beheaded from the ground, why did they cease to exist? Are you afraid of Li Xiu?
Li Xiu didn't think so, and Zhuge Sheng didn't think so either. In fact, the apparent strength of the imperial court seems to be dominated by human masters, and the most important people in the court are almost all human ministers. However, I have never fought before. I don’t know. It turns out that the so-called founder of Tianduyuan, Fa Xiaoren, is the guardian of Dayun City. The leader is meager and his combat ability is unsatisfactory. On the other hand, the ancestors of the Blood Demon Clan, Qu Ji, and the Earth Demon Clan, Di Chen, are extremely powerful people. Not to mention other conspiracies and tricks, if the ancestors of the nine nobles come out to fight Li Xiu together, if they don't call Foreign aid may not lead to victory. If they want to call in foreign aid, the fact is that the nine nobles are not afraid of Li Xiu at all, so the reason why the second-class nobles have ceased their activities is not because they are afraid of Li Xiu.
So if they weren't afraid of Li Xiu, the Earth Demon Clan wouldn't be guilty of summoning the evil god. Then, where did these demons go?
"I praise what the old man said is reasonable. You just raised the first question, so there must be a second question!" Li Xiudao.
He praised: "The second question is even more obvious. The most important thing Zhou Guangshun has to do now is to implement the emperor's plan. There is no need for him to go to Yuanjiangkou and Tianduyuan to quell the Shura rebellion. There is no need to give up halfway. It may have happened to Zhou Guangshun at this time. But for so many days, we took Fa Xiaoren captive and walked around various places without deliberately hiding our whereabouts. Except for the few people who followed us from Dayun City, no spies or Zhou Guangshun's informants came to pay attention to us. Is this normal?"
Not normal. The answer is very abnormal.
Li Xiudao: "Unless Zhou Guangshun has received a more important mission, the second-class nobles have also heard rumors that are more valuable than dealing with me, and have temporarily given up the plan to reach Beijun."
He praised: "Yes, although you are not the leader of the Immortal Cultivation World in Shangbei County now, you are almost there. Your reputation is unparalleled for a while. If you raise your arms, the Immortal Cultivation World in Shangbei County will definitely come to help, especially in dealing with the demons." Your position has no one to replace you. In the battle of Dongping Mansion, even the Taiqing Palace in Fengshan Mountain came out to help. This is something I could not have imagined. If I kill you, the world of cultivating immortals in Shangbei County will inevitably become a mess again. If the second-class nobles want to It will undoubtedly be a lot easier to reach out to Beijun! So, what kind of news did they receive before they gave up dealing with you? "
"What you said makes sense. I killed Ou Shi and Di Chen. The Blood Demon Clan and the Earth Demon Clan have an undying feud with me, but these two tribes have lost their two great masters, Ou Shi and Di Chen. , it is difficult to be in the leading position among the nine nobles. Considering their overall situation, if there are greater interests, the other seven clans will definitely be able to overrule the Blood Demon Clan and the Earth Demon Clan to deal with me. If this is true, then, The Old Demon City is empty. In the end, they are trying to avoid me. Of course, I don’t deny that they are playing tricks and planning some powerful means to deal with me! In order to verify this, we can go to the ancestral land of the Blood Demon Clan next. After taking a trip, if their ancestral land is also empty, then this inference is very close!" Li Xiudao.
"Not bad!" He praised: "Also, Zhou Guangshun must have been delayed by other important things. He has two things to consider, so he can only choose the more important after weighing it. He sits at the mouth of the Yuanjiang River, so he will ignore you for the time being."
"Oh? So, putting everything aside, isn't it the safest time for us to enter Beijing now?" Li Xiudao.
He praised: "If you want to meet Emperor Ji Yuan in the palace as soon as possible, then now is undoubtedly the best time to enter the capital! Meeting Emperor Ji Yuan and finding out the whole story will not actually hinder our previous plans, unless he vetoes it. When you run a school, you will be driven to a foreign land like the Arctic ice sheet just like we deal with the powerful men of the Holy Path."
"It's not too late, let's go to the ancestral land of the Blood Demon Clan!" The three of them left as soon as they said it, taking the four oligarchs and other great demons who had been planted with the Corpse Slave Seal, they left the Earth Demon City and headed north. , avoiding the Great Shang Prefecture and moving to the central and western continent, the Great Chu Prefecture.
After such a long-distance flyby, even with their strength, it was already noon the next day when they arrived at the Blood Demon Mountain Fortress in Da Chuzhou.
While watching the Blood Demon Mountain Castle from a distance, several people rested on the spot, taking turns to close their eyes and meditate for an hour and a half, expelling some physical and mental fatigue and negative things from the body. It was already two or three hours later, the Youpai time.
As the sun set and the spring breeze blew in their faces, Li Xiu and the others adjusted their body and mind to the best condition before setting off for the Blood Demon Mountain Fortress.
At a glance, one can see that the ancestral land of the Blood Demon Clan is much more normal than the ancestral land of the Earth Demon Clan. There is no barren place and no demonic energy leaking out. In the green Blood Demon Mountain, some early spring flowers and trees are in full bloom, making it a paradise scene. There are many ancient pagodas on the surrounding mountainside, probably not for the sake of beauty, but for sentry posts and the like. In the middle of the mountain, a road leads directly to it. Pavilions and pavilions can be seen everywhere, winding up, and at the end of the line of sight, A majestic old castle stands there, that is the Blood Devil Mountain Castle.
However, just like the situation in Demon City, the place was indeed deserted.
