Chapter 576: Chapter 291: Denied the Chance to Fight Desperately, Second Method for Bloodline Enhancement
In the True Spirit Divine Demon Array within the stone path, Yi Nian Guan Shan sat on the ground, restoring the consumed Golden Core magical power, while Qu Wuyi kept watch on the side, but Qu Wuyi kept a full ten feet away from Yi Nian Guan Shan.
Unable to get close.
Dared not to get close.
Because in front of Yi Nian Guan Shan, a dark red column-shaped Demon Artifact with a handle was being driven by an External False Pill Human Puppet. As it was being driven, tiny demon pythons formed by Blood Phoenix Outer Demonic Qi continuously danced half a foot away.
Amidst the dancing of the demon pythons, a layer of Blood Phoenix Outer Demonic Qi, thin as a cicada’s wing, formed a barrier, protecting a range of six feet around Yi Nian Guan Shan. Those who approached would be entangled by the demon pythons, those who were contaminated, their bodies would be burned by the Blood Phoenix Outer Demonic Qi, Golden Core included. Hence, after being warned, Qu Wuyi hid three feet away.
But just as Yi Nian Guan Shan was restoring his Golden Core magical power, the demon pythons suddenly opened their bloody mouths and hissed.
In the next moment, the Demon Artifact trembled.
Various black secret texts started appearing on the body of the column-shaped Demon Artifact, and ripples formed on the layer of Blood Phoenix Outer Demonic Qi, thin as a cicada’s wing. However, this change only lasted for one or two breaths before it calmed down.
"Ancestor."
But Qu Wuyi, knowing the danger within the stone array, his face changed suddenly.
Yi Nian Guan Shan furrowed his brows, glanced at the Demon Artifact in the External False Pill Human Puppet’s hand, and after pondering for a moment, spoke, "No worries, some stealthy True Demons have appeared within a thousand-foot area, which triggered this artifact.
This Demon Artifact can dispel any Stealth Technique within a thousand-foot area and is not suppressed by the stone array. You and I, having this artifact as protection, need not worry about being ambushed by True Demons. Even if a Tier Three Middle True Demon comes to attack, I can rely on this artifact to maneuver."
Hearing this, Qu Wuyi breathed a sigh of relief, yet he hadn’t completely relaxed when the Demonic Qi stirred again.
"Again."
Yi Nian Guan Shan said indifferently, "No problem, no need to be nervous. However, more and more True Demons appearing in this area is not good news. Driving this Demon Artifact consumes too much for me, causing my Golden Core magical power to recover very slowly. Wuyi, you send a Yin Technique into the Demon Artifact to assist me in driving it. Once my Golden Core magical power is fully restored, we will leave this place and seek a safer spot."
"Yes..."
Qu Wuyi nodded, but looking at the Demon Artifact in the External False Pill Human Puppet’s hand, felt somewhat apprehensive.
But then, thinking that the Ancestor was the one who promoted and nurtured her, who taught her the Furnace and Cauldron Technique, their relationship was far beyond that of ordinary people. Moreover, she was essential for rebuilding Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks, and the Ancestor couldn’t possibly harm her.
After pondering for a few breaths, Qu Wuyi sent the Yin Technique into the Demon Artifact, assisting the External False Pill Human Puppet in controlling the Demon Artifact.
After a hundred breaths, there was no anomaly. The Ancestor was also focused on restoring his own Golden Core magical power, so Qu Wuyi finally let her guard down completely.
"Seems like it’s that Du the Corpse Cultivator coming." Yi Nian Guan Shan thought to himself, mentally prepared to the utmost, but did not retreat. Because having retreated already, there was no way to back down further, only a fight to the end.
When Di Shenhan, Yin Yang Three Elements, and Du the Corpse Cultivator entered the Grotto Heaven, he received the sensation the moment they were inside.
When the three separated to search, he sensed it too.
It was for no other reason.
Just because he is the Master of the Grotto Heaven.
However, one must admit, this Du the Corpse Cultivator is indeed daring; not long after, he vanished from his senses.
After vanishing, he entered the stone array, found his way so quickly, it seems his fortunes are not small either. At this, Yi Nian Guan Shan was not surprised, as the background of Du the Corpse Cultivator is surely not simple.
This Tier Three Top-Grade Demon Artifact belonging to the Blood Phoenix Demon Monarch has only been refined by him by thirty percent. He couldn’t use many of its capabilities; even though it could obscure Celestial Secrets, it couldn’t block all tracking methods.
"Since you dare to come alone, then even if I must pay a dear price, I will kill you."
If Du the Corpse Cultivator is killed, it will serve as a proof of allegiance when joining General Lin, and also gain the fortuitous encounter on his body.
The Three Cultivations of Body, Soul, and Technique into Golden Core, and killing the deep-rooted City Lord of East Pole Immortal City, Zang Qianjian, how grand, how could his Corpse Dao fortune be small? Later, when I acquire that Lucky Dog’s Outer Foundation Establishment Flying Corpse, entering the humanoid Corpse Dao would be quite favorable too.
...
In the Demon Array.
Wen Jiu controlled the East Spring Undying Bone to slowly walk forward, while the Formless Demon Corpse was one foot away from the East Spring Undying Bone. With that Demon Artifact there, Wen Jiu boldly didn’t let the East Spring Undying Bone hide anymore but proceeded openly.
As he got closer and closer to Yi Nian Guan Shan, Wen Jiu sensed Yi Nian Guan Shan suddenly moving and standing in the middle of the stone path, seemingly waiting for the arrival of East Spring Undying Bone, and magical power fluctuations were already manifesting around him.
As for the fluctuations of that Demon Artifact, they were behind Yi Nian Guan Shan.
"It seems they are preparing for a desperate struggle." Wen Jiu sneered coldly, halting the advancement of the two corpses.
Want to use that Demon Artifact to fight me?
I refuse to fight you.
Wen Jiu didn’t hesitate, directly controlled the Formless Demon Corpse to change direction, only the East Spring Undying Bone stopped and retreated two hundred feet, occasionally using Three Rivers Ghost Concealment to draw Yi Nian Guan Shan’s attention.
The Formless Demon Corpse then bypassed, heading towards the core area of the Demon Array from another path, eventually finding a Tier Three Middle True Demon with an irritable nature. The Formless Demon Corpse raised a hand and struck it, enraging the True Demon.
The True Demon roared furiously, transforming into a beast form and chasing after the Formless Demon Corpse, which revealed some aura.
Its speed was quick.
Far superior to that of the Formless Demon Corpse.
But the Formless Demon Corpse excelled in being able to hide at any time, causing the True Demon to lose direction and become enraged in impotence.
While it was uselessly furious, the Formless Demon Corpse stabbed it in the back again, fueling the already angry True Demon’s rage. After repeating this several times, the True Demon went completely berserk, manifesting a True Demon Body three feet in size to chase the Formless Demon Corpse.
