Hearing Liu Ming's words, Zhao Qianying nodded, but then she thought of something and said with a frown, "You just said that there is demonic qi flowing in the fog.
"Earlier, you said that there was demonic energy flowing within the mist. Could there be some sort of detection restriction? If the two of us were to charge in recklessly, I'm afraid we'll be discovered."
"There should be, but don't worry, I have already thought of a solution." Liu Ming smiled and patted the Yin Transformation Gourd on his waist, and Scorpion flew out.
When Zhao Qianying saw Scorpion, a strange look flashed in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
"Scorpion, take us underground," Liu Ming said.
"No problem, leave it to me." Scorpion then turned to Liu Ming and smiled. With a wave of his small hand, a yellow light wrapped around the two of them.
With a flash of yellow light, the three of them immediately went underground and headed toward the canyon.
Liu Ming spread out his Divine Sense and carefully explored the movement above. At the same time, he pointed out the direction in which Scorpion should go.
The white fog shrouded several nearby mountains, but along the way, Liu Ming did not find a single figure in the mountains, which was somewhat unexpected.
This made Liu Ming feel a little uneasy, and a bad feeling welled up in his heart.
After a quarter of an hour, the group finally arrived near the canyon.
"Master, there is a restriction in the soil layer in front of us. If we continue forward, I'm afraid we will be discovered." Scorpion suddenly stopped and said.
Liu Ming's eyes flashed with purple light, and he looked at the soil layer in front of him. He saw that in the soil layer in front of him, there were gray spider silk-like threads. They were very dense, and if they continued forward, they would definitely touch them.
It should be a detection method set up by someone to prevent people from sneaking underground and approaching the canyon.
"In that case, for the rest of the journey, let's go from above," Liu Ming said after thinking about it.
In a remote corner near the canyon, there was a flash of yellow light, and two translucent figures silently appeared. They then flew forward like dragonflies skimming the water.
Liu Ming had already activated Che Huan totem to the extreme underground. The two of them almost merged into the white fog, and they flew toward the depths of the canyon.
Since things had come to this, he had to take some risks.
The figures of Liu Ming and Chen Huan disappeared from the entrance of the canyon in the blink of an eye. Wherever they passed, a faint black figure appeared.
There was a faint purple light flowing in its eyes. The Che Huan Secret Technique that Liu Ming used seemed to be useless in front of it.
"I didn't expect the Liu Family to really set a restriction here. It seems that those demonic corpses were really summoned from here." The black-robed figure looked into the depths of the white fog and thought.
As one of the Tongxuan realm cultivators of the HuangFu Clan, he, he, naturally, he knew a lot.
His eyes flickered a few times, and he flipped his hand to take out an array plate. He pointed at it, and a few rays of light fell on it.
The array plate lit up slightly, and then the light dissipated.
After doing this, the black-robed figure moved and chased in the direction that Liu Ming and Chen Huan had escaped.
Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying quietly sneaked into the canyon. After flying for a short distance, Liu Ming pulled Zhao Qianying to a stop.
In the white fog ahead, a huge figure walked over. It was an Ancient Demonic Corpse.
The two of them looked at each other, and a hint of surprise appeared in their eyes.
The appearance of an Ancient Demonic Corpse here meant that their previous speculation was probably right.
"Since we have confirmed that the source of the Ancient Demonic Corpse is here, should we retreat first, send a message to Master, and wait for the army to arrive before taking action?" Zhao Qianying communicated with Liu Ming through voice transmission.
"Alright, but I'll leave this matter to you. I'll get Scorpion to bring you out first, and I'll continue to take a look inside. Summoning an Ancient Demonic Corpse from the Devil Abyss isn't a simple matter, and there might be a certain ritual. Before the army arrives, it's best to investigate everything clearly. "Liu Ming pondered for a moment and said.
"No, the Liu Clan must have a backup in the canyon. It's too dangerous for you to do this." Zhao Qianying revealed a worried expression.
A trace of warmth rose in Liu Ming's heart. Zhao Qianying's concern made him feel good, and it was a feeling that he hadn't experienced for a long time.
"It's fine. Even if I'm discovered, I'm confident that I can escape. "
As Liu Ming spoke, he casually glanced behind him from the corner of his eyes.
The Tongxuan realm expert from the HuangFu Clan had been tailing them all the way here. Although he had carefully concealed his aura, he still wasn't able to hide it from Mo Tian.
The current situation might be dangerous at every step, but it was also a great opportunity. Liu Ming already had a plan to deal with this person.
"Since you insist, then I won't stop you, but I'm going with you." Zhao Qianying's expression changed as she spoke with a firm tone.
When Liu Ming heard this, he frowned.
He had asked Zhao Qianying to leave because he was concerned for her safety. Of course, he also had the intention of purposely leaving her behind. After all, there were many places where it wouldn't be easy to make a move with this woman following him. It was far better to be alone.
"You don't need to persuade me. I must go with you." Zhao Qianying saw that Liu Ming was about to say something, so she spoke first.
"Alright, then you'll follow me. However, if there's any danger, I'll keep you in my grotto-heaven artifact. Don't resist." Liu Ming thought for a moment and sighed.
Zhao Qianying nodded in agreement without any hesitation.
After the two finished their discussion, they turned into an indiscernible shadow and continued forward.
The giant demon corpse that they had seen earlier seemed to be a patrolling guard at the entrance of the canyon. With the wonders of the Che Huan Totem, Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying easily avoided the Ancient Demon Corpse and continued deeper into the canyon.
After advancing for a while more, another huge figure appeared in the fog in front of them. It was another Ancient Demon Corpse.
However, this devil corpse had a faint azure colour to it, making it seem as if it was wearing a set of azure armour.
This green demon corpse's movements were quite agile, and its eyes would occasionally look around with a faint red light in its pupils. It seemed to be on guard.
Liu Ming's eyes flickered as he led Zhao Qianying in a roundabout way, avoiding the green demon corpse.
The further they went into the canyon, the more Ancient Demon Corpses they encountered. There were at least thirty to forty of them along the way, and there were also many demon corpses with keen senses.
There were even a few times when the two of them were discovered. Fortunately, Liu Ming was alert and managed to avoid them in time.
Soon, the two of them gradually approached the depths of the canyon, approaching the place where the entrance to the Abyss had appeared.
At this point, the white fog in the surroundings became fainter.
Liu Ming's expression was solemn, and his movements became even more cautious.
After the green light turned a corner in the valley, the scenery in front of them suddenly widened, and they arrived at an open space in the valley.
Liu Ming looked ahead, and his expression changed. The green light quickly turned and landed behind a giant rock.
The open space in front of them was where the entrance to the Abyss had first appeared.
However, at this moment, there was no longer any white mist in the open space. Instead, there was a black altar with three levels in the valley. Above the altar was a gray Space Gate, similar to the one that had opened in the Demonic Abyss.
In the Space Gate, a green whip shadow appeared out of thin air and slowly rotated.
In front of the altar, there was a silver-haired old man muttering something to himself. This person was none other than the current patriarch of the Liu Family, the one who controlled the Great Shuo army, Liu Huifeng.
At each of the four corners of the altar sat a Celestial Phenomenon Realm expert of the Liu Family.
In front of each of them floated a magic treasure: a flute, a zither, a pipa, and a demonic ring.
The magic treasures emitted a dazzling light, faintly resonating with the green whip in the Space Gate.
Liu Huifeng muttered an incantation, and a black light several feet long appeared on his body. His entire body seemed to blend into the darkness, looking incomparably strange.
At this time, there was a deep green cauldron in front of him. It looked like a medicine cauldron, and it was as tall as a person. It emitted a faint green light and there were some dark red lumps inside, emitting a strange smell. It seemed to be some kind of spice.
The green medicine cauldron emitted a wisp of red smoke and flew into the Space Gate above.
"Sure enough!" Liu Ming glanced at it and immediately looked away, hiding behind the boulder.
Although he did not take a closer look, it was obvious that Liu Huifeng was performing some kind of ritual … In his opinion, it was eighty percent to summon the Ancient Fiend Corpse.
"I recognize the thing in the green medicine cauldron. The dark red thing is called Blood Carrot, and the aura it emits is extremely attractive to the Ancient Fiend Corpse." Zhao Qianying's lips moved slightly, and she said to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming's expression froze when he heard this, and he nodded.
His eyes flashed slightly, and he flipped his hand to take out a white jade talisman. It was the one that Huangfu Yupo gave him, and then he waved his hand to cast several spells on the white jade talisman.
The talisman suddenly flashed, turned into a red light, and was about to fly into the Void, but at this moment, a white light suddenly appeared in the Void, and the Message Talisman was forced out.
Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying's expressions changed, and before they could react, a black shadow flashed around them, and a dozen tall green Ancient Fiend Corpses suddenly flew out from the thick white fog around them, and surrounded them.
"Not good!" Zhao Qianying suddenly stood up, and a purple light shone from her body. She flipped her hand to take out a small purple cauldron, and was about to attack.
Liu Ming's eyes turned, and he pulled Zhao Qianying back. The surrounding Ancient Fiend Corpses only surrounded them, and did not immediately attack.
Then, a figure flashed in the air in front of them, and the figure of Liu Huifeng appeared.
"Senior, we happened to pass by here, and saw that this place was covered in fog, so we came in to investigate. We did not mean to offend you!" Liu Ming's thoughts turned quickly, and he did not reveal the slightest strange expression on his face.
