"Other people beat up the young and the old one comes. I beat up the old one and the young one comes."
Qin Mu sighed ruefully. It wasn't easy being the Heavenly Devil Cult Master.
The fact that Long Jiaonan and the woman from Three Wonders Castle had come here meant that the other young experts were nearby. It would be troublesome if these people caught up to them.
Hu Ling'er controlled the demon wind to sweep away the insects that were flying over and sent them far away. "Young master, aren't these people going home for New Years?"
"They probably treat killing me as a New Years party."
Qin Mu shook his head. "Other than killing me, they still want to kill the emperor. They definitely can't kill me, but I don't know if they can kill the emperor. After all, the emperor is a much bigger target than me. "
Hu Ling'er handled the situation very well by blowing the insects away. Long Jiaonan and the rest wouldn't be able to find this place, saving them the trouble of finding Lonely Mountain Ridge Canyon.
Lonely Mountain Ridge Canyon wasn't far from here. Qin Mu walked to Lonely Mountain Ridge and saw that the terrain of Lonely Mountain Ridge wasn't as steep as other places. However, this place seemed to be different from other places. The mountain was gray and there wasn't any greenery to be seen.
There were withered trees everywhere on this mountain. The trees were black and the ground was also black, giving people a bad feeling.
"What if they kill the emperor?" Hu Ling'er asked.
Qin Mu took the lead and walked into Lonely Mountain Ridge. Hu Ling'er immediately followed and jumped onto the Dragon Unicorn's back. She then jumped onto the Dragon Unicorn's head and looked around.
"If they kill the emperor and replace him with the crown prince, the reform of the National Division will be overthrown by the crown prince."
Qin Mu continued, "The National Division will then get rid of the crown prince and replace him with an obedient emperor. Even if the National Division doesn't do it, I will do it. I will even invite the National Division to be the fourth cult heavenly king of Heavenly Saint Cult. I have kept this position for him for a long time. However, they won't be able to kill the emperor. The National Division also won't be willing to be the fourth heavenly king of the sacred cult. "
There were withered trees everywhere, and there were no branches or leaves. Little Baihu was very nervous. She felt that these withered branches were like sharp claws, and the twisted trunks were like scary faces. She could not help but be afraid.
"There's Godfiend blood here. It's polluted this place."
Dutian Devil King casually smacked a few bugs that flew over before grabbing a handful of soil from the ground. He rubbed it and said in bewilderment, "Strange, this blood is very peculiar. I can't tell if it's from a god or a devil. There seems to be both divine blood and demonic blood. One type of blood contains divine blood and demonic blood. Interesting … "
Qin Mu asked curiously, "Lord Demon King, could it be that both God's and Demon's blood were spilled on this land at the same time?"
He had seen the blood of demonic gods before, and it was very powerful. Back when he had entered the darkness of Great Ruins with Village Chief, Village Chief had injured a devil god in the darkness. When a drop of its blood fell into the soil, all the trees and flowers within a radius of three hundred yards withered. It was similar to the situation in Lonely Mountain Ridge.
But that was only a drop of demon blood.
And here, the entire Lonely Mountain Ridge Canyon had been contaminated. It was obvious that a lot of Godfiend blood had flowed here.
"It's different."
Dutian Devil King shook his head and said, "It's the same kind of blood, just that this kind of blood has both god and devil attributes. Your horizons are still too shallow and can't see the knack for it. God's blood governs life while devil's blood governs death. The blood that fell on Lonely Mountain Ridge has both god and devil attributes. The god's nature is hidden in the soil while the devil's nature destroys all the flowers and trees here, causing everything that grows out of the soil to die. These trees are dead, but their roots aren't. Instead, they are abnormally strong and healthy. They might have already borrowed the life force of the god's blood to become spirits. "
Hu Ling 'er immediately asked, "Will the tree roots become demons?"
"They will."
Dutian Devil King said, "They should become a kind of strange lifeform that will grow tentacles all over."
Even though Lonely Mountain Ridge Canyon had the name of a canyon, the terrain was very high. It was just that compared to the mountain ranges on both sides, it was much lower.
The pitch black canyon was winding and winding, and the mountain path wasn't easy to walk on. Heavenly Devil Cult must have suffered quite a bit when they smuggled goods here.
There was a black stone tablet every set of distance. They were thirty yards tall and had rune markings drawn on them. Qin Mu identified them and said, "These are the Demon Suppression Runes of the sacred cult. Ling 'er, don't touch it, if you activate it, you will be sucked into the tablet. "
Hu Ling 'er jumped in shock.
"There are quite a number of Demon Suppression Stone Tablets in Lonely Mountain Ridge. Looks like Heavenly Saint Cult had spent quite a lot of effort to open up this passage. This also means that there are many demons in Lonely Mountain Ridge, and they are very terrifying. "
Qin Mu counted the Demon Suppression Black Stone Tablets they had met on the way, and there were as many as forty-six of them. Furthermore, they had not even walked half of the way, so if each stone tablet was suppressing only one demon, there would be forty-six demons in total.
However, the Demon Suppression Black Stone Tablets were thirty yards tall, so it was impossible for such huge stone tablets to suppress only one demon. In that case, the number of demons suppressed here would be extremely considerable.
They came to the center of the valley and saw a pond in front of them. The surroundings were snowy mountains, and the weather was cold. However, there was actually a lake here, which made them click their tongues in wonder.
There was an old tree beside the lake, and it was withered. The area it covered was very wide, and around the ancient tree and the lake were densely packed black stone tablets. There were about a few hundred of them, surrounding the ancient tree and the lake!
Qin Mu and the rest jumped in shock. There were so many Demon Suppression Black Stone Tablets here, so could there be a few hundred demons suppressed here?
