There must be something fishy going on.
The abnormality in the commander's palace made Ji Tianxing realize that there might be an ambush here.
But on second thought, that shouldn't be the case.
Although he had announced in the day that he was going to lead the army out tonight.
But he didn't reveal where exactly they were going to attack.
He only announced the answer when the army was about to reach Fish Dragon Mountain. It was impossible for the news to be leaked.
Moreover, he had used his divine perception to check the commander's palace and didn't find any powerful traps or ambushes.
There were only many defensive arrays and secret passages. It was very normal.
"Since there's no ambush, why is the commander's palace so empty?
It's fine if the demon generals don't live here, but why are there so few guards? "
Ji Tianxing was puzzled and felt that something was wrong.
So, he quietly entered the commander's palace and approached a few guards.
These guards were guarding a secret passage. The ground and walls were made of black stone, and they had set up an array that could isolate sound and divine senses.
The passage meandered downwards and seemed to lead to the underground of the commander's palace. It was so dark that nothing could be seen.
When Ji Tianxing came to their side, they didn't notice and were still whispering to each other.
"Have the offerings been sent in?"
"General Hu Cha has sent in more than 80,000 blood, qi, and essence souls!
General Hu Cha brought four blood monarchs and infiltrated the Scarlet Sun Empire. They massacred an entire city and only managed to gather 80,000 blood and essence souls. "
"Yes, only martial artists of Origin Core Realm and above have blood, qi, and essence souls that can be used by Lord Devil Saint."
"Shut up, have you forgotten the commander's orders? Don't talk about this anymore! "
"Stop talking, General Hu Cha and the four blood monarchs are about to come out.
If he hears your discussion, be careful of your heads! "
The guards discussed for a while and then quickly shut their mouths.
Ji Tianxing frowned when he heard this. He thought to himself, Offerings? 80,000 blood, qi, and essence souls? For Devil Saint?
Could it be Devil Saint Cang You?
He was heavily injured by me and urgently needs large amounts of blood, qi, and essence souls to heal his injuries.
Who would have thought that after he fled back to the Crimson Sun Empire, he would not guard the Heavenly Wolf Pass but instead hide on the Ichthyosaur Mountain.
What a surprise!
If he's really hiding here, then I've hit the jackpot! "
Thinking of this, Ji Tianxing's lips curled into a cold smile, his eyes filled with anticipation.
He quietly passed through the dark tunnel and walked towards the depths of the tunnel.
Three hundred meters later, there was a corner in front of him, which was also guarded by four guards.
Just as he was about to turn the corner, he saw a tall and mighty Demon General in black armor walking over with heavy steps.
This Demon General's eyes were very sharp, and his body exuded a terrifying murderous aura. His strength had also reached the 7th level of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm.
Ji Tianxing knew at a glance that this person was definitely a fierce general under Devil Sage Cang You's command. He was also the General Hucha that the guards spoke of!
Sure enough, when the four bodyguards saw General Hucha walking over, they hurriedly knelt on one knee and saluted.
If it were any other day, Ji Tianxing would have killed General Hucha without hesitation.
However, the current situation was special and related to Devil Sage Cang You. He suppressed his murderous aura and hid in the corner to wait.
Only when General Hucha was far away did he continue along the tunnel.
Another three hundred meters later, a tall stone door appeared at the end of the tunnel.
The black stone door was engraved with the image of a Demon God and set up a Saint-level defensive array.
Ji Tianxing frowned and muttered to himself, "Once I break this array, I'll leak my magic power aura and alert the guards in the tunnel.
Forget it, time is of the essence. I can't care so much. "
He made up his mind and used the God's Eye Mystic Technique to observe the array on the stone door.
In just a few moments, he saw through this Saint-level array and found a way to break it.
Then, he formed a seal with both hands and began to cast a spell. He shot out a pure white light and injected it into the stone door.
The Saint-level Demon Array on the stone door was immediately corroded by the white light and quickly dissipated.
However, at the same time, the white light and magic power aura that appeared out of nowhere also alerted the guards in the tunnel.
"Something's wrong!"
"Go and see what's going on!"
"It's magic power aura. It's a human!"
"Human powerhouses are invading. Someone come quickly!"
The originally quiet tunnel was immediately filled with exclamations and shouts.
Eight guards holding swords and sabers rushed over with murderous intent.
Ji Tianxing ignored them and slammed his palms on the stone door.
With a loud bang, the black stone door, which was about three hundred meters tall, shattered into pieces on the spot.
Countless gravel splashed out and was wrapped in a violent airwave that swept through the entire tunnel.
The eight guards had just rushed over when they were blown away by the airwave.
Ji Tianxing didn't even spare them a glance. With a flash, he passed through the shattered stone door and entered a spacious hall.
This vast hall was the first underground floor of the Commander-in-Chief's Palace. It was called the Underground Palace for short.
The hall was about three hundred meters in radius. It was very dark and the air was filled with a dark red mist.
The floor and walls were made of huge black stones. They were engraved with images of Demon Gods and Asuras. They were ferocious and terrifying.
And in the middle of the hall, there was a thirty-meter-tall sacrificial altar.
The altar was made of blood crystals. It was dark red in color, with many purple and green gems interspersed within.
At the bottom of the sacrificial altar was a blood pool with a radius of a hundred meters. Dark red blood water surged and rose from it.
Around the sacrificial altar were nine stone pillars carved with ancient Demon Beasts. They were vaguely arranged in a mysterious array.
Ji Tianxing only took two glances before he frowned and sneered. "Soul Sealing Blood Fusing Array? It's actually an ancient mystic technique that was lost a thousand years ago. It's a top ultimate technique of the Blood Demon Sect.
It looks like this is another ultimate technique passed down by the Ancestor Fiendcelestial. "
The Soul Sealing Blood Fusing Array was a healing mystic technique unique to the Blood Demon Sect.
No matter how badly injured a Demon powerhouse was, as long as their physical body was not destroyed, they could use the sacrificial altar and mystic technique to absorb the blood and essence of billions of living beings to recover from their injuries at the fastest speed.
When Ji Tianxing saw this array, he was certain that Demon Sage Cangyou was definitely here!
As expected.
When he raised his head to look at the top of the sacrificial altar, he indeed saw a black figure sitting cross-legged in a ball of blood light.
That was a middle-aged Demon male in black robes. His body was thin and lean, and his appearance was like a Demon Wolf.
He had strong arms and sharp claws. There was a huge triangular eye on his chest. There was even a pair of wings and a large tail on his back.
It was Demon Sage Cangyou!
At this very moment, he was wrapped in dark red blood light. His eyes were closed and he was immersed in cultivation.
His figure was hazy and illusory. His aura was also fluctuating. Clearly, his injuries had not fully recovered.
