"This matter is a long story, and it starts from ten years ago..."
As the old fox demon Hu Sanqian narrated, what happened on Bihan Island in the past sixty years also slowly unfolded under Hu Sanqian's narration.
When the secret realm of Guangyuan was opened, Ye Jin took advantage of the chaos and took away the core treasure [Danxia Soul Heart]. This also indirectly caused the two major forces on Bihan Island, the demon cultivator's [Bishui Hantan] and the human cultivator's [Tongyou]. Observe] The strongest of the two forces, the Three-Legged Golden Toad and Li Wanhai failed to break through the core formation.
But it also requires Bihan Island’s humans and demons to maintain a delicate balance.
Of course, there will definitely be infighting behind the scenes.
But generally no big war broke out.
In this way, the stalemate between the two sides lasted for fifty years.
The Three-Legged Golden Toad and Li Wanhai are old rivals. They have been fighting each other for hundreds of years, and they know each other's level of strength very well. As long as one party does not break through the core formation, it is impossible to decide the winner.
As for breaking through the pill formation, no one would dare to take this step without the ultimate treasure of the pill formation [Danxia Soul Heart].
There are occasional conflicts, but after fifty years of peace, the Qilian Mountains are peaceful.
The three-legged golden toad also stayed in its old lair, the cold pool of clear water, preparing for the formation of pills.
However.
One day fifty years later, a black shadow quietly sneaked into the cold blue water pool.
This dark shadow that secretly sneaked into the lair of the Three-legged Golden Toad, with the power of thunder, actually killed the three-legged Golden Toad who was concentrating perfectly on the spot in the lair!
Not only that.
The black shadow even bloody massacred tens of thousands of little demons in the Cold Water Pool. On that day, there were thousands of corpses floating in the Cold Water Pool and rivers of blood.
Even the cold pool water, which has been green for hundreds of years, was dyed blood red by the red blood. The entire air of the cold pool was filled with a strong smell of blood.
It was not until two days later that the Bishui Hantan, which had been washed away with blood, was discovered by a little demon who accidentally broke in, and the news that the Bishui Hantan was slaughtered was spread.
Overnight, all the demon cultivators in the Qilian Mountains were in panic.
Ancestor Jin, the three-legged golden toad who has been so powerful on Bihan Island for hundreds of years, is dead!
The strongest demon cultivator force in the Qilian Mountains [Bishui Hantan] was slaughtered, and no one was dead!
When this news came out, the demon cultivators in the Qilian Mountains such as Batu Cave, Zuanshan Cave, and Baihu Ridge were filled with fear.
Even the ancestor of the Three-Legged Golden Toad who had perfect concentration died tragically in his lair. Is there any need to guess the strength of the murderer who destroyed the Bishui Hantan that night?
It must be pill formation!
Only those who are strong in the Dan Formation stage can do this.
But at that time, Bihan Island didn't have any monks in the alchemy stage.
The demon cultivators in the Qilian Mountains have always suspected Li Wanhai, the master of the Tongyou Temple, an old enemy of Patriarch Jin.
But if the murderer is Li Wanhai, then Li Wanhai must have formed a pill.
However, Bihan Island has never seen any phenomena of elixir formation. If Li Wanhai had already formed elixirs, could he have secretly formed elixirs on other islands?
There is another point that the demon cultivators in the Qilian Mountains are confused about.
If it was true that Li Wanhai formed a pill and then attacked and killed Patriarch Jin, why would Li Wanhai be so sneaky?
It is obvious that Patriarch Jin, who is already an expert in forming pills but is still in the stage of concentration, cannot be his opponent. Why not come to the door openly and openly, as a master of forming pills, instead of quietly killing him without attracting attention?
Just when the demons in Qilian were panicking and speculating.
Three days later, the human cultivators led by Tongyouguan launched a general attack on the entire Qilian Mountains.
At that time, the Qilian Mountains were leaderless and the demons were like a piece of scattered sand. Naturally, they could not be the opponents of Tongyouguan and other cultivators.
As soon as they made contact, the Qilian Mountains were defeated on a large scale.
A large number of Lingshan spiritual veins are occupied by Tongyouguan and other human cultivation forces.
Even the demon cultivators, such as Black Wind Mountain and Zuanshan Cave, which were second only to Bishui Hantan, had to abandon their own mountain gates and retreat to Baihu Ridge deeper in the Qilian Mountains.
At that time, in the first battle, more than 90% of the demon cultivators in the Qilian Mountains died at the hands of human cultivators.
Lao Baiyuan died at the hands of a Zifu monk in Tongyouguan during the retreat.
Not only the white ape, but also the once cold and vicious second king [Three-Winged Gui Water Snake] was not spared and died tragically at the hands of human cultivators.
For example, the [Flower Demon] flower steward that Ye Jin had heard of, and the [Li Huo Jing withering] who crawled into the cave were all dead.
Only Baihuling, which is farthest from the human cultivation forces, is slightly better.
Later, all the demon cultivators in the Qilian Mountains fled to Baihu Ridge.
It is impossible to escape from the island. All the docks are occupied by Tongyouguan. Without the spirit boat, even if you can swim, you can't reach the next island by flying.
At that time, the remaining demons in the Qilian Mountains were in despair.
The only thing they were lucky about was that the leader of Tongyou Temple, Li Wanhai, did not participate in this operation to annihilate the demon cultivators in the Qilian Mountains.
Otherwise, not even this last White Fox Ridge can be saved.
However, in the face of the continuous siege from Tongyou Temple, the less than 3,000 little demons remaining in Baihu Ridge were in a desperate situation.
Just when the demons thought they were certain to die.
A figure that no one expected stood up!
The king of Batu Caves, Bear Tiger!
This black bear spirit, who had just been concentrating for a short time, had never been seen again since the cold blue water pool was washed away with blood.
Even though Black Wind Mountain was occupied, the two kings and the three-winged water snakes were killed, and 90% of the little demons of Black Wind Mountain were dead, the king of Batu Cave never appeared.
Originally, Hu Sanqian and the others thought that their king had been secretly attacked and killed by Tongyouguan.
But I didn't expect it.
At the critical moment when the entire Qilian Demon Cultivator was about to be destroyed, this black bear spirit actually stood up and turned the tide!
And what no one expected was that the King of Batu Caves, who had just been concentrating for a short time, appeared again with his elixir formed!
With a pill-forming demon king sitting in charge, the desperate situation of the demons in the Qilian Mountains was immediately brought to an end.
Under the leadership of Xiong Shanjun, the Qilian demons trapped in Baihu Ridge began to fight back, and gradually recovered the spiritual veins of the mountains occupied by humans.
When the Qilian demons were excitedly planning to invade the human realm, the demon king Xiong Shanjun ordered to withdraw his troops and redraw the boundaries between the two sides to the original Wuyang City.
Although there were some doubts, the Qilian demon cultivators led by Zhuan Shan Cave and Bai Hu Ling still obeyed Xiong Shanjun's orders.
They originally wanted to ask Mr. Xiong Shan to move to the Blue Water Cold Pool, which was once the home of Jin Patriarch and the most powerful spiritual source in the entire Qilian Mountains.
But he was rejected by Xiong Shanjun on the grounds of seclusion.
The Cave King and the White Fox Clan Leader had no choice but to disperse and go back to their mountain tops to lick their blood and recuperate.
Although the territory was regained in this battle, the demon clan in the entire Qilian Mountains was severely damaged.
I don't know how many demon cultivators died tragically in this battle.
Even though ten years have passed since this battle, the Qilian Mountain Demon Clan's vitality has still not recovered.
This is also the reason why there were only hundreds of little demons in Black Wind Mountain when Ye Jin went up the mountain.
However, who is the mysterious murderer who destroyed Bishui Hantan has always been a mystery.
Of course, the Qilian demons had secretly guessed that it was Li Wanhai, the master of Tongyou Temple, who had done this.
But Li Wanhai never showed up, not even when it came to annihilating the Qilian Mountains.
If Li Wanhai, who is in the core formation stage, takes action himself, the entire Qilian Monster Clan may be wiped out before Lord Xiong Shan can turn the tide.
This mystery was not revealed until ten years later, when True Lord Qingyun visited Bihan Island in person to investigate the Canglan Sea Tianmo Sect's branch, and found out that Tongyou Temple was the Tianmo Sect's branch.
Hearing this, Ye Jin also suddenly realized.
Li Wanhai secretly destroyed Bishui Hantan, and did not dare to attack the mountain gate openly, probably because he was worried about exposing the truth about the devil.
After all, the practitioners of Tianmo Sect are basically human demons. Once they fight, the rich demonic energy cannot be concealed at all.
Later, when the demon clan in the Qilian Mountains was annihilated, Li Wanhai's failure to show up was easily explained.
After all, in front of everyone, if Li Wanhai takes action, the fact that he is a remnant of the Tianmo Sect will definitely be exposed.
At the same time, Ye Jin guessed that Li Wanhai was not really a remnant of the Heavenly Demon Sect at first.
After all, he had been fighting with Patriarch Jin for hundreds of years. If Li Wanhai was a remnant of the Heavenly Demon Sect, there was no way the Three-Legged Golden Toad would not have discovered it.
Perhaps later, under the temptation of Jiedan, Li Wanhai chose to join the Heavenly Demon Sect. Under the parasitism of the fourth-level Heavenly Demon, Li Wanhai immediately gained combat power comparable to that of Jiedan.
So that night, Li Wanhai sneaked into the Blue Water Cold Pool, killed his old enemy the three-legged golden toad, and washed the Blue Water Cold Pool with blood.
But these are not Ye Jin's focus.
Ye Jin's real focus.
It was Xiong Shanjun, the Pill Demon King who finally stood up to turn the tide!
Did you break through the core formation soon after you concentrated your concentration?
Even Ye Jin, who possesses the treasure of chaos, cannot do this.
When she thought about Xiong Shanjun's possession of the Seven Treasures Tuolong Sword, which even the three-legged golden toad had never possessed, when he was still half-concentrated, Ye Jin's eyes flashed with a faint light.
He even called Ye Jin to pay attention.
Since he went up the mountain, his spiritual consciousness has not detected any breath of pill formation at all!
If Xiong Shanjun has formed a pill, his aura cannot be hidden from Ye Jin!
Unless Xiong Shanjun’s soul is stronger than Ye Jin.
But is this possible?
Ye Jin practiced the "Yamfu Refining Divine Art" for a period of time without stopping for a day. The strength of the soul in the late stage of forming the pill has already caught up with the early stage of Yuanying's transformation.
Is the spirit of Xiong Shanjun who "has just formed a pill" stronger than Ye Jin?
It's not impossible, but Ye Jin feels that this possibility is even smaller than his time travel.
Thinking of this, Ye Jin frowned slightly and asked again:
"Are you sure Xiongshanjun has already formed a pill?"
Hu Sanqian was startled, pretending not to hear the monkey demon call the black bear demon by his name, and nodded affirmatively:
"At that time, the king fought one against three, and fought three Zifu Perfection human cultivators. Even the human cultivators called the king the Demon King of the Pill Formation."
"That is to say, none of you have seen Xiong Shanjun's demon elixir with your own eyes?" Ye Jin's eyes moved slightly.
Hu Sanqian was stunned, not knowing what the monkey demon meant, but he still nodded honestly and said:
"No."
Hearing this, Ye Jin nodded, then looked at the entrance of the cave behind Hu Sanqian, opened his mouth and asked:
"After listening to this for so long, it's time for your Majesty to come out."
When the old fox demon and Hu Niu heard this, they were stunned at the same time, and then looked back.
As soon as the monkey demon finished speaking, a burly figure walked out of the shadows at the entrance of the cave.
With a body nearly ten meters tall and thick black hair, he could not be a black bear or a bear tiger.
I saw Mr. Xiong Shanjun walking out of the Batu Cave. Under the shocked eyes of Hu Sanqian and Huniu, he respectfully walked up to the monkey demon and kowtowed:
"Little Demon Bear Tiger, I have met the leader of the mountain."
The leader of the mountain?
Who is this?
The monkey demon in front of me?
The old fox demon Hu Sanqian felt that the scene in front of him was like a dream.
He thought that the monkey demon would be very strong, but he never expected that the monkey demon would be so powerful that his king Xiong Shanjun calls himself a little demon!
Even Xiong Shanjun, the "Elixir-forming Demon King", calls himself a little demon. So what is the real cultivation level of the monkey demon?
At the thought, Hu Sanqian's skinny body couldn't stop trembling, and he froze in place as if struck by lightning.
Huniu on the side was not much better. The monkey demon who was thought to be just "concentrating" turned out to be a being above the pill formation.
Huniu felt like she was living in a dream when she thought of taking action against a terrifying being with the power of forming a core.
Ye Jin didn't pay attention to the shock of Hu Sanqian and Eryao. In fact, when Ye Jin came to the top of the mountain, he felt Xiong Shanjun's aura.
The spiritual sense checked Xiong Shanjun's aura again, and a trace of amusement flashed in Ye Jin's heart, but he did not show it on his face. He glanced at Xiong Shanjun, raised his eyebrows and said:
"Did you recognize me?"
Kneeling on the ground like a hill, the black bear spirit said in a loud voice:
"The name of the mountain leader is spread throughout Canglan, and his power is so powerful in Qingming. How can I, the old bear, not hear about it?"
Ye Jin nodded and said:
"Get up, Your Majesty, you don't have to be polite. After all, when I was a little demon, I had to thank Your Majesty for your protection."
】
"Don't dare. The leader of the mountain will be so prosperous that he will reach the sky. Even if he is not here in Heifeng Mountain, he will surely soar to the sky and his name will spread throughout the world."
The black bear spirit flattered him without any trace, but did not stand up. He was still kneeling, but he raised his head and looked at the monkey demon with complicated eyes.
It seems that he did not expect that the little demon who went up the mountain back then would actually grow into the number one demon among the young generation of Canglan Sea in just sixty years.
The black bear spirits were all kneeling. The old fox demon Hu Sanqian and Hu Niu who dared to stand next to them naturally knelt down too.
However, the expression of the second demon was a bit confused, and he had not yet recovered from the shock that the monkey demon was the "leader of Canglan".
However, the expression of the little fox girl beside Ye Jin remained unchanged, and she had long been accustomed to this scene.
As for Xiao Shen Jing, she was still immersed in the grief of the white ape's death.
After all, in the entire Black Wind Mountain, apart from the monkey demon, the white ape was the best to him.
"You take Xiao Ginseng Jing to relax."
Ye Jin turned his head and gave instructions to the little fox lady.
Bai Jiumei nodded and took the listless Xiao Ginseng Essence to the former pharmacy location.
After giving instructions to the little fox lady, Ye Jin looked at Xiong Shanjun who was kneeling on the ground and said:
"Is there a secret room? I have something to ask you alone."
"Yes! Please come with me."
Xiong Shanjun nodded respectfully, and then took Ye Jin into the Batu Cave.
The little demons I met along the way all looked at the monkey demon in shock, as if they were curious about who this respectful monkey demon called his king was.
After walking for a while, we finally arrived at Xiong Shanjun’s cave.
The stone door was closed, cutting off the noise from the outside world, leaving only a monkey and a bear in the cave.
At the moment when the stone door closed, Ye Jin cast a spell with his fingers, and a sound barrier enveloped the cave.
After doing all this, Ye Jin's eyes suddenly sharpened, he looked directly at the respectful look of Xiong Shanjun in front of him, and said indifferently:
"Who are you anyway?"
…
