Master Gold Devourer looked different from ordinary evil cultivators. There was no black gas on his face, nor was his face distorted. The saying that the face came from the heart didn't apply to him. On the contrary, he had white hair and a youthful face. His eyebrows fluttered as if he was a true master. Other than a sharp golden light flickering in the depths of his eyes, he looked almost exactly the same as an elder of a famous sect. That kind and benevolent appearance didn't seem to be faked no matter how one looked at it.
As a gu cultivator, he was wearing a snow-white robe and holding a white jade horsetail whisk.
He had the demeanor of an immortal.
Even Lin Dong felt that this guy wasn't ordinary.
There weren't many bad people in the cultivation world who cared so much about their image, and there were even fewer who could live such a good life. This showed that Master Gold Devourer's cultivation power was extraordinary.
The moment Master Gold Devourer landed, he looked at the blue-faced Master Yan Huo and said, "So it's Fellow Cultivator Yan Huo. We are really fated!"
However, he only took one look before turning his gaze to Master Crimson Rui, Master Purple Thorn, and Master Ashen Pine. Although he didn't recognize the three of them, they couldn't hide from Master Gold Devourer's senses. What shocked the three of them was that Master Gold Devourer's gaze was fixed on Lin Dong, who looked like a martial cultivator in dire straits. It was clear that Master Gold Devourer was suspicious of Lin Dong's identity. He might have even used his golden eyes to sense something.
Before this, no one had any suspicions about Lin Dong.
Including Elder Yan Huo of the Green Wave Sect.
"A bit interesting." Golden Devourer of All Gu Immortal retracted his gaze. His lips curled up slightly as he smiled at Lin Dong. No one knew what he meant.
"…" Master Crimson Rui, Master Purple Thorn, and Master Ashen Pine almost broke out in a cold sweat. What a terrifying person. Master Clear Spring had hidden himself so well, but he was still seen through with one glance.
After Master Gold Devourer arrived, another strong cultivator arrived.
This person was very tall.
His height was close to three meters. It would have been better if he hadn't been taller. As soon as he descended and stood in the middle of the crowd, he immediately stood out from the crowd.
However, his face was as pale as a sheet of paper. Within the paleness, there was a faint greenish hue. No matter how one looked at it, it didn't look like the skin color of a human. Looking at the square face again, in the two deep eye sockets, there were two strange lights burning. Looking closely, there was a strange scene of flickering flames. It was as if they were not human eyes, but two everlasting lamps that continued to emit light.
"Elder Feng Deng," Master Ashen Pine explained to Lin Dong, "it's said that the Coffin Door's Corpse Cultivator has cultivated to the eighth level of the Heart Piercing Corpse Transformation Art. His body is as hard as diamond, impervious to swords and spears, and impervious to fire and ice. He's only one level away from transforming into a Zombie King!"
"Not bad!" Lin Dong agreed with Elder Feng Deng's strength.
This was a cultivator with the strength of an elder.
Although corpse cultivators were a little scary.
However, his cultivation realm was not low, and his cultivation was just as impressive.
Apart from Master Golden-Devourer of All Venomous Insects, the second strongest person in the crowd was this silent Elder Feng Deng.
Of course, although this Elder Feng Deng's cultivation was strong, Master Crimson Rui Zi and Master Redbud were not as afraid of him as Master Golden-Devourer of All Venomous Insects. Firstly, this Elder Feng Deng was not an evil cultivator. Although the corpse cultivator he cultivated was scary, his cultivation technique was good and his temperament was not bad. Secondly, Elder Feng Deng's cultivation technique was weak in offense and strong in defense. In battle, he had more than enough defense, but not enough offense. Therefore, he was far less dangerous than Master Golden-Devourer of All Venomous Insects.
Master Golden-Devourer of All Venomous Insects frowned at the arrival of Elder Feng Deng. He did not like corpse cultivators like Elder Feng Deng who had the defense of an iron turtle.
Moreover, both sides had some cultivation techniques that restrained each other. The corpse cultivator's "rigidity" could not break the gu cultivator's "craftiness".
But conversely, the gu cultivator's "poison" could not do anything to the corpse cultivator's "body".
After waiting for half a day.
Elder Fei He from the Singing Bird Sect rushed over. He was the biggest reinforcement that the treasure hunting team had been waiting for. This Elder Fei He was shocked by Master Golden-Devourer of All Venomous Insects as soon as he arrived. However, since he was already here, he could not leave immediately. He could only bite the bullet and come over to greet everyone. He also greeted Yan Huo and Elder Feng Deng, trying to establish a relationship.
In the end, he even came over to greet Master Crimson Rui Zi, Master Redbud, and Master Ashen Pine to test their attitude.
"We are from the Green Leaf Sect of Liukong. This trip is only to find missing disciples, not treasure hunting. Fellow Daoist Fei He need not worry." Master Crimson Rui Zi even used the excuse he had prepared earlier. Regardless of whether the other party believed it or not, the purpose of the Green Leaf Sect of Liukong's visit was obviously to find missing disciples.
"With a strong enemy in front of us, why don't we temporarily join forces? Fellow Daoist Yan Huo and Fellow Daoist Feng Deng are familiar with each other. They have been friends for more than a hundred years. If the three of you are willing to form an alliance with sincerity, we will not only help your sect to find your disciples, but also give you a big gift. We will not be stingy! " Elder Fei He knew that it would be a big joke for him to want to obtain the rare treasure in the Nether Cave Mansion by himself. If he was not careful, he might even be killed by Master Golden-Devourer of All Venomous Insects. In order to avoid this possibility, he decided to rope in Master Crimson Rui Zi and the other two to join forces with Yan Huo and Feng Deng. Even if it was a temporary alliance, it could still resist the invisible deterrence of Master Golden-Devourer of All Venomous Insects.
With Master Golden-Devourer of All Venomous Insects around, more than half of the cultivators in the treasure hunting team did not dare to enter.
Unless there was an alliance of six great experts.
Only when everyone's safety was guaranteed would they enter and take the risk.
"Hey!" Master Golden-Devourer of All Venomous Insects saw Elder Fei He's action, but he did not care.
He was an "elder" that even a hidden expert like Lin Dong could not see through. No matter what tricks he played, Master Golden-Devourer of All Venomous Insects would not care. Moreover, it was a temporary alliance. If there was no conflict of interest, it would naturally be fine. As long as the rare treasure appeared, this temporary alliance would instantly fall apart. What was there to be afraid of?
Regarding the alliance that Elder Fei He suggested, Master Crimson Rui Zi, Yan Huo, and Feng Deng thought for a while before agreeing.
There was no harm in it anyway.
A temporary alliance would help to relieve the current tense atmosphere. It would also help to gather their strength to face a strong enemy like Master Golden-Devourer of All Venomous Insects together. There was no need to hesitate when it came to something that had hundreds of benefits and no harm.
"Hmph!" Master Golden-Devourer of All Venomous Insects saw this situation and snorted in disdain.
The cultivators in the treasure hunting teams were overjoyed.
It was best if the few big bosses agreed to the alliance.
This way.
Everyone had the confidence to go in and search for the treasure. Even if they could not get the best treasure, it should not be a problem to follow the crowd and get some leftovers!
After a round of discussion, each team began to remove the sealing formation in front of the Netherworld Cave. Every sect had their own techniques, and every sect had their own tricks. Lin Dong imperceptibly learned many things as he watched them remove the seal. Especially now that he had a very high cultivation base, but the skill he had learned was severely insufficient. Without an orthodox inheritance, he had to rely on himself to figure it out. In this kind of situation, when he turned around and looked at others, he felt that he had really gained a lot. This inadvertent improvement in learning was probably even more useful than obtaining the rare treasures in the Netherworld Cave!
The unsealing process was very slow. Every cultivator was very careful.
No one was willing to make a mistake and become a victim of the explosion of someone else's sealing array.
Lin Dong happened to be secretly learning from them.
He pretended to drink out of boredom while secretly learning other people's techniques. To Crimson Rui Zi and the others, these techniques were too simple and disdainful. However, Lin Dong did not have an official master to guide him. It was really a blessing from the heavens to be able to learn the techniques of dozens of sects!
Even though what he saw was only a fragment and not a complete inheritance or display, Lin Dong was already satisfied.
During the unsealing process, a few more powerful cultivators arrived.
Four of them were eldest senior apprentice brothers from different sects.
Their strength was not bad. They were slightly weaker than Fire Loathing, but they were not any weaker than the captains of the treasure hunting teams.
Lin Dong's mind was focused on the unsealing array. He did not remember their names and only responded to Master Ashen Pine's introduction.
It took a lot of effort to unseal all of the seals.
"Phew!" Lin Dong was reluctant.
He wanted to watch for a while longer.
However, the treasure hunting cultivators were already impatient. When they saw that the unsealing was completed, they all cheered in unison.
"Hehe, it's almost time. Fellow Daoist Yan, you should come out and greet everyone!" Master Gold Devourer of All Venomous Insects suddenly laughed strangely. In the midst of his ear-piercing laughter, a mound of earth suddenly rose not far from the Nether Cave Mansion. Then, a black square head slowly emerged from it. The process of the head emerging from the earth was very strange. It was like a dead man emerging from a grave, sending chills down one's spine.
"My appearance is extremely ugly. Out of politeness, it's fine for me to come out and greet everyone. But if I really emerge from the earth to greet everyone, it would be a bit scary! I won't do such a wicked thing! " More than half of the black square head emerged. After saying a few words, it slowly sank back into the earth as if it had never appeared.
Ever since he appeared.
Lin Dong had been staring at this cultivator called Yan Yan. However, he could not find any facial features on the other party's square head.
Unlike Lin Dong, Crimson Rui Zi, Master Ashen Pine, and Master Ashen Pine had extremely ugly expressions.
They had been here for more than two days.
They hadn't even sensed that Bi Yan was hiding under their feet. What a failure! Especially Master Ashen Pine, who was famous for his insight, felt a bit ashamed.
Yan Yan and Fei He's expressions were a bit ugly. They were also confused. When did Yan Yan sneak under their feet? Moreover, he even sneaked to the entrance of the Nether Cave Mansion that was densely covered with sealing formations. Even so, they did not notice anything. What level of cultivator was this "Yan Yan" who was obviously Master Gold Devourer of All Venomous Insects' teammate? If Yan Yan was a cultivator at the level of Master Gold Devourer of All Venomous Insects, then with the two of them working together, would their six-man alliance have any chance of winning?
Elder Feng Deng's expression was like a zombie, no change could be seen.
He was the first to walk towards the Nether Cave Mansion.
With his actions, he showed his determination to enter the cave to search for treasures.
Yan Yan and Fei He looked at Crimson Rui Zi. When they saw Crimson Rui Zi secretly nod, a sense of pride surged in their hearts. Their side had six people working together, and there were nearly a hundred cultivators in the formation. If they were scared off by Master Gold Devourer of All Venomous Insects and Yan Yan, then wouldn't they become the laughingstock of the thirty-six million cultivators of the righteous path?
"Great Master Clear Spring?" Master Ashen Pine secretly transmitted his voice to Lin Dong, hoping that he could give him a suggestion. For the Liukong Green Leaf Sect, the strength of the enemies had far exceeded the endurance of the three protectors. If Lin Dong, this mysterious reinforcement, couldn't suppress Master Gold Devourer of All Venomous Insects, then they might as well give up on this trip. Instead of seeking their own death, it was better to return to the mountain at top speed and ask the Great Elder, who was in closed-door cultivation, to come out and see what the old man would do! Right now, he was just waiting for Lin Dong's word. If Lin Dong said it was possible, then the Liukong Green Leaf Sect would continue to move forward even if they had to risk their lives to ensure that the seal of the ancient vicious beasts would not be lost.
If not, then the Liukong Green Leaf Sect would have to think of a way out. At the very least, they would let two of their juniors leave to preserve some of their seeds.
Not only Master Ashen Pine.
Crimson Rui Zi and Redbud Zi also looked at Lin Dong, their eyes full of hope.
