"The second demon war?"
"The demons are going to invade again?"
After being in a daze for a while, they finally woke up. The Lan sisters didn't have much idea, while Fairy Beihan and Liu Jinyuan were shocked.
As high-level officials of the Beiyuan Sect, they had seen many records of ancient battles between demons from the sect's books. At that time, the entire world of immortality worked together to barely defeat the demons.
In today's world of cultivating immortals, the vitality of heaven and earth is chaotic, and the strength of cultivators is much weaker than in ancient times.
Moreover, in ancient times, the demon clan also participated in the war, but now, not to mention the decline of the demon clan, after being driven out of the land by the human race, it is difficult for both sides to help each other.
Fairy Beihan looked at the two dexterous little bodies that were flexibly shuttled between the cracks in the dense space and gradually moved away. She suddenly thought of the previous conversation between Lu Kun and Hong Yuntian, as well as the calm look on each other's faces. The fear in her heart eased slightly, and she strengthened Zuo calmly said:
"There is no demon clan, but now there is the Body Refining Pavilion. Pavilion Master Lu and Fellow Daoist Hong may be the back-up men left by the Yiyuan Sect. They seem to be well prepared."
Then she straightened her face and ordered: "Jin Yuan, when you go back, arrange for someone to contact the Southwest Chamber of Commerce. If there is really a war, this is the best channel for delivering news."
"Yes, Patriarch."
Fairy Beihan sensed the two treasures in the storage bag that belonged to the founder of the founding sect, and murmured: "It's been six hundred years, and the sects in the far north have probably forgotten about me, so it's time to move around. …”
…
To the west of the central part of the Broken Kingdom, the ancient battlefield was shrouded in white mist that blocked the sky. Endless spiritual energy poured out from the cracks in the space, constantly replenishing the mist, and mysterious forbidden waves emanated from it.
Although the mist restriction is filled with pure spiritual energy, within a hundred miles of it, there is a barren rocky Gobi desert. Only the deep blue light shines in the space cracks inside, and no spiritual energy or evil energy leaks out.
This area surrounding the ancient battlefield is called the Ring of Desolation by immortal cultivators.
On this day, on a rocky slope somewhere in the Desolate Ring, dozens of immortal cultivators gathered together. They were in groups of two or three, divided into more than twenty teams, and all had five spirit plates in their hands.
Old Demon Xingyun and Old Monster Xie were among them, but there was a bald old man beside them.
This old man is also at the peak of the mid-term cultivation level. Judging from his clothing, he is an elder of the Yuan Mo Sect. He is talking eloquently and seems to want to win over two casual cultivators to join the Yuan Mo Sect's team.
Other teams are also communicating with each other and planning to form a team.
The space seals that the Demon King comes from across borders are often loosened after the white mist restriction fades. Every time the Demon King struggles to get out, the senior gods have already surrounded him.
The ancient battlefield has a range of five thousand miles. As long as you stay away from the core location, you will not participate in the battle at the level of the gods.
However, when the demon king crosses the border, some demon generals will come in, and some even reach later levels. These demons not only have exquisite magical powers, but their bodies are also extremely powerful, and they can fight across levels.
If the team of cultivators does not have a big cultivator, or if the number is too small, it will be dangerous to encounter a late-stage demon general.
As time goes by, dazzling lights appear one after another on the horizon, and even if they are dozens of miles apart, the terrifying pressure of true energy can be felt.
"Senior Transformation God is here."
"There are eight escaping lights in front and behind. Even if two demon kings do come, you don't have to worry about anything."
"Then we can follow senior in."
"I heard that every time the ancient battlefield is opened, the hidden cave of Yiyuan Sect will appear. We must carefully sense the space fluctuations."
"There may be more demons this time, so we must always be vigilant!"
…
Eight powerful men at the pseudo-god level landed on a rocky Gobi more than ten miles away, close to the white mist restriction outside the ancient battlefield.
Abbot Zhiyuan looked at the six pseudo-gods headed by Lord Huo Ling, and frowned: "The souls of several people seem to be damaged. What happened? There seems to be nothing in the Broken Kingdom that can threaten you. "
He is a strong person who has realized the power of will on his own. Although he has not entered the pseudo-god form, his sense of the soul is not weaker than others, and he immediately found that the aura of these people was wrong.
Gu Deming was also aware of it. There was a sarcastic look in his eyes and he said: "I have said before that Lu Kun has weird magical powers and amazing explosive power. He is more troublesome than the Demon King. How can he be so easy to deal with?"
Abbot Zhiyuan was horrified and said, "Are you going to deal with Pavilion Master Lu?"
Venerable Huo Ling said with a serious look on his face: "Yes, and no."
"What's the meaning?"
Lord Huo Ling said slowly: "We fought against Pavilion Master Lu, but we suspect that he is an immortal cultivator whose body was taken away by the demon clan's remnant soul."
"Seize the body?"
Zhiyuan shook his head repeatedly and said: "It's impossible. Fellow Daoist Wu and I both sensed at that time that Pavilion Master Lu is a pure human soul."
Hearing the words, Lord Huo Ling said nothing. The true energy in his body surged, and a stream of spiritual light shot out, condensing into a handsome young man in mid-air.
"This person seems to have some impression. I saw him at the entrance. He is a Nascent Soul demon cultivator." Zhiyuan felt a little familiar.
Lord Bing Ling said at this time: "Zhiyuan, I checked on the Floating Island, and this person has five spirit disks in his hand, the same ones you gave to the Body Refining Pavilion."
After being reminded, Zhiyuan suddenly remembered that those people seemed to be demon cultivators in the southwest immortal world.
"Could this person be transformed by Pavilion Master Lu?"
The spiritual light flashed in Lord Huoling's hand, and a milky white jade pendant appeared. He said with a serious expression: "You should know that after entering the Broken Kingdom, we will always sense the One Yuan Jade Pendant."
"I originally wanted to visit the Fire Dragon Pond, but I met this person on the road. When I got close, the Yiyuan Jade Pendant suddenly had a weak reaction, so I planned to investigate carefully."
At this point, the aura in front of him was distorted, and the young man outlined by the aura changed. He became hunched over, purple-black scales grew on his body, and two rows of bone spurs squeezed out of his back, turning into The appearance of a humanoid monster.
"This looks like a demon?" Zhiyuan looked at the monster's appearance and said hesitantly.
Lord Huo Ling nodded and said: "Who would have thought that this guy immediately changed into this look after seeing me, and even used the devil's unique supernatural power. I couldn't defeat him, so I secretly called a few people with the Wanli Talisman. Fellow."
"After we joined forces to restrain it, the monster claimed to be Pavilion Master Lu and said that transformed gods cannot kill each other."
At this point, he said with an ugly face: "While the two sides were in a stalemate, this guy suddenly spit out the sacred object of the ancient Hades and self-destructed it. Our soul chains were uncontrollable and were directly annihilated."
"He finally escaped..."
Abbot Zhiyuan's face changed slightly and he said: "The sacred object of the Underworld Zerg, this thing cannot be activated by immortal cultivators. The body of the demon and the reaction of the Yiyuan Jade Pendant may really be the remnant soul of the demon. However, he calls himself Master Lu, so maybe it is Want to frame him."
Lord Huo Ling narrowed his eyes and said: "It is indeed possible, but the five spirit plates on his body are definitely not fake. These strange things have made me a little suspicious of Lu Kun."
He asked: "Zhiyuan, Gu Deming, when you fought against Lu Kun, did you sense the Yiyuan Jade Pendant?"
The two shook their heads, how could they have thought of using such a thing to absorb the soul of the Demon King at that time.
Venerable Fire Spirit said with a solemn expression: "Think about it, Lu Kun's magical power is so unbelievable that he can transform like a demon clan, and the strange beast like the through-armed demon ape only appeared briefly in the ancient demon clan war..."
The Bigan Dragon King on the side added at this time: "From my bloodline memory, I know that the Thru-armed Demon Ape ascended to the upper realm shortly after the war."
“In today’s world of immortal cultivation, not to mention the Giant Giant Ape, even the Giant Giant Ape has become extinct, and there is no way it can be passed down by blood. The only people who know the most about the Giant Giant Ape are the demons from ancient times. "
"If it is a demon soul that has survived from ancient times, it is possible that it knows the secret of the demon ape's magical powers."
Before Zhiyuan could speak, Wu Wenxuan said again: "Zhiyuan, you should know that I sacrificed an external incarnation made from the demon king's internal organs to barely control the demon dragon blade."
"But when Lu Kun uses it, he doesn't feel stagnant at all. If the opponent is a demon soul, it would make sense."
At this point, a bit of fear flashed in his eyes, and he seemed to be a little afraid and said: "The other party controls two kinds of energy at the same time, as well as that unique supernatural power, maybe he was taken away by the Demon Emperor!"
"Demon Emperor..."
Hearing these two words, Zhiyuan and everyone else looked frightened.
Zhiyuan was silent for a while and said: "I have been to the Body Refining Pavilion and met a disciple of Pavilion Master Lu. That person is at the Nascent Soul stage and has supernatural powers. He can't be a Demon Emperor."
Venerable Huoling did not answer directly, but said: "Everyone in the sect should have records that the Yiyuan Sect has a secret realm where demon souls are sealed in the southwest world of immortality. There were demon souls that escaped 20,000 years ago."
"As a result, he was captured by the great elder of the Blood Refining Sect. This person refined it into a demon soul pill, and then he broke through to become a god."
Zhiyuan nodded. Huatian Temple has records about this. Twenty thousand years ago, the man went to the Holy Demon Sect to snatch the Demon Dragon Blade. In the end, he was not only injured, but also captured by the great Zhou Hua Shen.
"After knowing the news, the elders and I wanted to search for the secret place called Demon Island, but we were blocked by Senior Yin."
"With the powerful god-transformer who has lived for 30,000 years sitting in charge, even if there are remnants of demon souls in that secret realm, nothing will happen. The seniors will not continue to explore."
His expression gradually became serious: "Now if we do the math, it seems that the rise of the Body Refining Pavilion was after the death of Senior Yin."
"If the demon soul really escaped from that secret realm, there might be more than one demon soul."
"As we all know, demon souls have seized bodies more times than immortal cultivators. If this remnant soul, which is suspected to be the Demon Emperor, seized the bodies of the demon ape in ancient times, it might have brought magical powers into Lu Kun's body."
"Of course, this is also my speculation."
Lord Huo Ling said slowly: "According to this inference, Lu Kun's various weird magical powers and the method of controlling the vitality of demon spirits at the same time can be said to all rely on the power of the Demon Emperor's remnant soul."
Having said this, he said with an extremely serious face: "If this is really the case, then our risk will be great. As long as he switches sides to help the Demon King and destroys the space seal of Yiyuan Sect when the ancient battlefield opens, I am afraid that the world of immortality will be destroyed." Facing the second invasion of the demons!"
Hearing this, everyone fell silent.
Abbot Zhiyuan was disturbed by Venerable Huo Ling's analysis. He suddenly thought that the great elder named Hong Yuntian whom he met in the Body Refining Pavilion seemed to know a lot about things in ancient times.
In particular, Buddhism used to have many secrets of Buddha's names in ancient times. Even the Five Spirits Temple may not have records of such things during the war between demons.
After a long time, Abbot Zhiyuan recited the Buddha's name and said: "Well done, Great Spirit King Buddha. These are all conjectures of fellow Taoist Huo Ling, but if Pavilion Master Lu is a genius rarely seen in tens of thousands of years, he has created a line of human body refining. ,so what."
Upon hearing this, Lord Huo Ling said calmly: "That's very simple. Just prove that human beings can really practice its body-refining techniques and don't rely on the power of the demon soul."
"In order to dispel their concerns, we used the Stone of Oath to establish a ban. We are only reviewing this technique and will never spread it to others."
When Gu Deming heard this, he couldn't help but look up at the crowd, and found that everyone looked innocent. Only the three-headed dragon had a strange look on his face, and his lips moved slightly, as if he was muttering something in a low voice. He sneered in his heart, However, he did not speak, but remained silent.
Zhiyuan sighed. Just when he was about to speak, a loud noise suddenly came from his ears, and everyone couldn't help but look over.
I saw the white mist not far away suddenly rolling up, with purple and black spots appearing on it, and the deep forbidden fluctuations quickly weakened.
"what happened!"
"The ancient battlefield actually opened half a month in advance."
"This has never happened before. Is there something going on inside?"
