Although Liu Huifeng had arrived, the four Heavenly Elephants of the Liu family sitting cross-legged at the four corners of the altar did not move at all. In fact, they did not even look in their direction.
Liu Huifeng had originally raised one hand as if preparing to have the Ancient Demon Corpse kill the two intruders. However, after hearing Liu Ming's words, his gaze lingered on Liu Ming's face for a moment and his expression changed.
"Eh? You're the kid who escaped from the Great Chaos Demon Array!"
Hearing this, Liu Ming's expression changed and he frowned. Then, intentionally or unintentionally, he took half a step forward and shielded Zhao Qianying behind him.
"Princess Huangfu Qianying of the Central Dynasty!" Liu Huifeng noticed Liu Ming's action and shifted his gaze to Zhao Qianying. He raised his eyebrows and said.
Zhao Qianying did not recognize Liu Huifeng, but from the aura he exuded, she could tell that he was definitely an important figure in the Liu family. At this moment, when she saw that he had recognized her at a glance, she could not help but be startled and a trace of panic appeared on her face.
"So you are from the Huangfu family!" Liu Huifeng's gaze returned to Liu Ming and he said with a cold expression.
"I will try to hold him back and let Elder Xin take you away first! Report the situation here to the Demon King! " Liu Ming suddenly tilted his head slightly and whispered to Zhao Qianying. At the same time, a yellow light flashed in front of him and he took out six Beads of Mountains and Rivers.
Zhao Qianying was startled, clearly not understanding the meaning of Liu Ming's words.
"Hmph! You're here and you still want to leave? Don't think that I didn't notice your existence. Come out! " Liu Huifeng snorted coldly and waved his hand without any warning. A slender gray light shot out and bombarded the void in the distance as if it had teleported.
"Boom!" There was a muffled sound and the void trembled violently at the place where the gray light struck. A black figure staggered out of it.
The black Qi on the black shadow dissipated, revealing the person inside. It was a middle-aged man with a long face and black clothes. His eyes were bright, and he didn't show any panic. However, when he looked at Liu Ming, a strange light flashed in his eyes.
Liu Huifeng's expression changed and he coldly said, "I was wondering who it was. So it's Fellow Daoist Huangfu Xin. I apologize for not going out to meet you!"
Zhao Qianying turned to look at Liu Ming with a surprised look on her pretty face.
She naturally knew the middle-aged man with the slanted eyebrows. He was a powerful cultivator in the Mystic Enlightening realm who was in seclusion all year round. He rarely appeared in front of others, and she had only met him a few times.
What she was surprised about was how Liu Ming knew this person.
"Elder Xin, now that things have come to this, we can only act separately. We must inform the Demon King of the situation here!" A hint of regret flashed across Liu Ming's face. Then, with a loud shout, the six Mountain River Pearls suddenly emitted a large amount of earthy yellow light, which wrapped his and Zhao Qianying's bodies and flew out of the canyon.
The middle-aged man with the slanted eyebrows frowned when he heard this, obviously realizing something.
At this moment, three Ancient Devil Corpses suddenly appeared in front of him, and several huge demonic palms slammed against the yellow light. A tremendous force directly pushed Liu Ming and the Mountain River Pearls back, and they fell into the encirclement of the Ancient Devil Corpses.
Liu Huifeng didn't even look at Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying, and instead stared at the middle-aged man with the slanted eyebrows. In his eyes, with the Ancient Devil Corpses around, Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying were not worth mentioning. Only the person in front of him could be considered a worthy opponent.
Before Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying could stabilize themselves, the eyes of the dozen or so Green Ancient Devil Corpses around them glowed red, and they roared as they pounced towards Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying.
Almost at the same time, Liu Huifeng also began to attack. His figure swayed, and he rushed towards Huangfu Xin. In mid-air, a blue light flashed in his hand, and he summoned a blue jade scepter.
As he muttered a few incantations, the surface of the blue jade scepter shone with blue light, and it emitted a blue halo, from which a buzzing sound could be heard.
Then, a fierce blue tiger condensed in the blue halo, and it pounced towards the middle-aged man with the slanted eyebrows.
As the fierce blue tiger flew, it grew in size, and in the blink of an eye, it had become dozens of feet tall.
Following a tiger's roar, an extremely cold aura was emitted from the body of the blue tiger. The tiger opened its mouth, and a thick blue light shot out towards the middle-aged man with the slanted eyebrows.
At this moment, the middle-aged man with the slanted eyebrows couldn't help but feel annoyed.
The moment Liu Ming spoke, he immediately understood Liu Ming's purpose.
This kid could discover and recognize him, and it was obviously Mo Tian's doing. At this moment, Mo Tian was deliberately provoking Liu Huifeng to fight with him.
Although he understood in his heart, he knew that he couldn't explain anything to Liu Huifeng. In the current situation, he could only deal with Liu Huifeng first.
As thoughts turned in his mind, he didn't hesitate at all. Almost as soon as the giant blue tiger appeared, he tapped his feet, and his entire body shot backward.
The blue light beam naturally missed.
Liu Huifeng had already expected Huangfu Xin to do this. With a flash of light in his hand, he launched a technique into the white mist around the canyon.
The white mist suddenly surged and pressed over. Huangfu Xin immediately felt great resistance from all directions, and he couldn't help but stop.
At this moment, the giant blue tiger had already pounced to the position where Huangfu Xin stood before. At the same time, it spat out a second blue light beam directly at his face.
The man with the slanted eyebrows' face sank. He raised one hand, and a black light flew out of his hand. It was a small black banner with a black phoenix pattern on it. Under a blur, it transformed and expanded dozens of times, blocking in front of him.
Whoosh!
The blue pillar of light struck the black banner. Black light flowed across the surface of the banner, seemingly blocking the attack. However, in the next instant, a layer of blue ice crystals appeared and quickly spread across the banner.
The light of the black banner immediately dimmed.
At this moment, a black technique was launched from Huangfu Xin's hand, and it directly entered the black banner.
Immediately afterward, Huangfu Xin used his fingers to cut his wrist, and a stream of blood spurted out. It also flew into the black ancient banner in a flash.
The black banner immediately shone brightly, and a layer of thick black flames appeared on the surface of the banner. There was a faint sharp cry of a bird, and then the surface of the ancient banner shook violently, shattering the blue crystal on it, and flew back to the hands of the man with the slanted eyebrows.
Boom!
The man with the slanted eyebrows immediately ignited with black flames, and his entire body was submerged in them.
Liu Huifeng immediately stopped when he saw this, and a somewhat solemn expression appeared on his face.
The black flames on the man with the slanted eyebrows expanded to more than a hundred feet in the blink of an eye, and a scorching heat swept out.
Seeing this, Liu Huifeng waved his hand to produce a technique, and the giant blue tiger turned around and pounced in front of Liu Huifeng. At the same time, it threw out the blue jade scepter in its hand, and waved its hand to produce several techniques. It muttered an incantation, and was ready to use some kind of ability.
At the same time, the corner of his eyes glanced down, and he was slightly startled.
He saw that the place where Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying were originally standing had been replaced by a yellow ball that was several hundred feet in size. The surface of the ball was surrounded by a thick and condensed yellow mist, and it was slowly circulating.
Through the yellow mist, one could vaguely see the phantoms of mountains and rivers within the ball.
At this moment, more than a dozen Green Ancient Fiend Corpses were currently surrounding the yellow ball, bombarding it with their fists and legs. Although the momentum was astonishing, it could only cause some tremors, and was unable to break the ball.
At this time, somewhere in the yellow ball, Liu Ming was muttering an incantation, and his hands became a blur. A series of techniques flew out, and continuously merged into the surrounding mist.
Zhao Qianying looked at Liu Ming, and her eyes flickered a little.
She suddenly asked, "Did you discover that Elder Xin was following us?"
"That's right." Liu Ming raised an eyebrow, and then nodded.
"No matter how powerful those Ancient Fiend Corpses outside are, they may not be a match for you. Are you hiding here now to wait for an opportunity to destroy that altar?" Zhao Qianying's expression changed, and her tone was a little strange.
Liu Ming didn't answer Zhao Qianying, and waved his hand to produce a technique. There was a flash of water above their heads, and it turned into a water mirror, and the situation outside was displayed in the mirror.
Zhao Qianying frowned slightly, and didn't ask anything else.
In mid-air, Liu Huifeng looked at the yellow ball below, and his eyes flickered.
He didn't expect that a mere late-stage Celestial Phenomenon cultivator like Liu Ming could display a domain of this level. It seemed that the dozen clumsy Ancient Fiend Corpses wouldn't be able to break it.
In his heart, he vaguely felt that something was wrong. The two of them hiding here didn't seem to be as simple as just gathering information.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but frown.
Speaking of which, the timing of Liu Ming and the others' arrival was too coincidental. The five of them were originally preparing for the second round of Ancient Fiend Corpse summoning ceremony.
The first batch of thousands of Ancient Fiend Corpses had mostly been sent to various battlefields. He knew that Huangfu Yong must have hidden strength to deal with them, but he didn't care, because he originally planned to use these Ancient Fiend Corpses to attract the Huangfu Clan's attention.
The number of Ancient Fiend Corpses in the second round would far exceed the number of Ancient Fiend Corpses in the first round, which was his real goal.
Once he succeeded, he planned to directly lead more than ten thousand Ancient Fiend Corpses into Yu Province, and uproot the Central Dynasty with a thunderous force.
At this moment, the ceremony was only halfway through. It was fine if he left alone, but the four Celestial Phenomenon Realm clansmen couldn't move. Otherwise, not only would the ceremony fail, but even the spatial passage would be affected.
Liu Huifeng was slightly regretful at this moment. For the sake of this plan, he had deployed all of the Liu Clan's forces in the other provinces, and deliberately made it look grand. If he had left more defensive forces here, it wouldn't be so embarrassing now.
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, the black flames in front of Huangfu Xin suddenly changed.
Along with an impassioned and clear cry, black flames surged up into the sky. Then, a giant bird, several hundred feet in size, composed entirely of black flames, soared out of the billowing black flames.
This giant flame bird had wide wings, a black crown on its head, and three long tail feathers on its back. It was extremely similar to the legendary Phoenix.
The black phoenix spread its wings, and with a towering pressure, it directly charged toward Liu Huifeng.
