A black river that was over 100 feet in length abruptly surged out of the black mist before crashing viciously into the silver wheel.
A loud rumbling sound rang out. Under the continuous impact of the black river water, the rainbow light barrier began to tremble slightly for the first time. Even some of the spirit patterns in the formation below began to shatter inch by inch.
Shan Gan was overjoyed to see this.
If the ancient sealing formation was in good condition, even a being a hundred times more powerful than him in his heyday would not be able to shake it.
But the formation in front of him had gone through tens of thousands of years. Not only was there little energy left in it, but the formation itself had been weathered for more than half of its original power.
What was sealed in the formation was, of course, a foot of the giant demon that ruled Yunchuan and even the entire Sea Region in ancient times.
According to some ancient records, after this giant demon was killed by the joint forces of several races in the Vast Sea, they were unable to completely destroy its physical body. They could only chop off its limbs and head separately, and then find a secret place to seal it.
This secret realm connected to the Demon Subduing Tower was one of the sealed places.
However, the exact location of these sealed grounds had been intentionally concealed by those powerful figures back then, and very few people knew about it. After so many years, naturally, no one knew their true location.
The founder of the Yuan Mo Sect had set up the Yuan Mo Sect here. Later, he found the entrance to the secret realm and built the Demon Subduing Tower to lock it together. Of course, it was unintentional.
The appearance of demonic beasts in the Demon Subduing Tower had happened in recent years. Before that, there was no sign, as if they had appeared out of thin air.
At that time, "Shan Gan" was at the peak of his cultivation. Out of curiosity, he spent a lot of time studying the source of these demonic beasts. After decades of investigation, he finally found the secret realm and found some clues about the seal. Finally, he could confirm that the secret realm of the Yuan Mo Sect, which had been explored countless times, was the place where the giant demon's limb was sealed.
Naturally, "Shan Gan" was overjoyed!
But before this former Original Devil could take any concrete action, he suffered the backlash of his demonic technique due to his failure to break through to the True Pill realm. Not only did his cultivation decrease greatly, he had to give up his position as the Original Devil, and he had no choice but to hide in the forbidden area at the belly of the Original Devil Mountain, resolving the danger of his Qi Deviation day and night.
In this way, he naturally forgot all about the sealed place.
However, after the former Yuan Mo spent many years researching, he finally discovered that in order to solve the danger of the demonic technique backlash, he had to absorb a trace of the True Demonic Qi that only a true demon could have in order to quell the danger of the backlash. Naturally, he immediately thought of the possible existence of the seal in the secret realm, and finally made this trip.
As for whether breaking the seal would cause any future trouble, "Shan Gan" would not care so much when his own life was at stake.
Moreover, according to his expectations, even though the Ancient Giant Demon possessed remarkable abilities and unfathomable might, the place where it was sealed was only a part of its body. In addition, after so many years, it should have become incomparably weak and no longer posed much of a threat.
This time, he did not intend to completely destroy the seal. As long as he could open a gap in the seal, it would be enough for him to collect a trace of True Demonic Qi.
Otherwise, with the might of the ancient Giant Demon, how could a mere Fake Core Stage cultivator like him dare to think of a seal that could seal its limbs?
Moreover, the body of "Shan Gan" was temporarily borrowed by "Yuan Mo", whose real cultivation was only that of a Spiritual Apostle. It was only with the help of a secret skill that he could forcibly inject some of his own magic power into the body, so that he could activate the body's lifespan when needed, and even exert a strength no weaker than his own.
Of course, in this way, he could only hold on for a very short time.
As for the few treasures he had taken out, they were spiritual weapons that he had carefully selected to break through arrays. Although they weren't among the best in his collection, they were suitable for this situation and had a miraculous effect on breaking through arrays.
Originally, he was very worried when he saw that the seal formation in front of him was quite intact. However, he didn't expect that after trying it out, it was only on the surface and could actually be broken by force.
This, of course, made "Shan Gan" ecstatic. Without any explanation, he began to activate the treasures in front of him and joined in the attack on the seal.
As soon as the lid of the golden bottle was opened, a wisp of silver liquid sprayed out from it. After being added to the black river, its power was immediately increased by nearly half.
As for the jade tokens, they sprayed out streaks of silver electric arcs, striking the seven-color light curtain even more shakily.
This was also because this former Yuan Mo had condensed so many doppelgangers after entering the Fake Pill Realm. Otherwise, even an ordinary existence in the Crystal Level could not control so many treasures at the same time.
However, under the simultaneous attack of so many treasures, the Dharma power inside "Shan Gan" also poured out like a tide. In less than ten minutes, he had to activate his physical body and life force again.
As time went by, wrinkles began to appear on his youthful face, and his black hair began to turn gray.
In a moment, "Shan Gan" had turned into an old man in his sixties.
But this former Yuan Mo turned a blind eye to his current appearance, and just kept activating the treasures with all his might.
More than one-third of the spiritual patterns in the formation had been broken, but there was still a thin layer of light curtain above the formation, barely holding on.
Naturally, "Shan Gan" became very anxious.
With the remaining lifespan in his body, he could not hold on for too long.
After a quick thought, he clenched his teeth and suddenly patted the top of his head with one hand. A cloud of black smoke rose into the sky, vaguely turning into a strange man's face.
As soon as the man's face appeared, he kept chanting. Below him, "Shan Gan" kept making gestures with his hands.
The sky fluctuated violently, and a cloud of gray mist emerged above the seven-color light curtain and turned into a whirlpool. As the chanting became more and more rapid, the whirlpool grew bigger and bigger.
The aura emitted by "Shan Gan" reached the level of the Crystal Level in a flash.
Even though the center of the huge whirlpool was roaring loudly, nothing appeared.
Seeing this, the man's face suddenly became a little ferocious. Although he did not stop chanting, "Shan Gan" turned over one hand in the void, and a dark dagger appeared in it. Without hesitation, he slashed at his own shoulder.
His arm fell off silently and instantly burst open into a cloud of blood mist. With a sizzling sound, it drilled into the whirlpool.
The next moment, a woman's soul-stirring chuckle came out of the whirlpool.
As soon as the sound reached the man's ears, a painful expression appeared on his face.
Below him, "Shan Gan" was still expressionless, but two streams of black blood slowly flowed down from his ears.
The man stopped chanting, pointed at the whirlpool in the sky, and shouted at the same time,
All of a sudden, the woman's laughter in the vortex came to an abrupt halt, and it was replaced by a slender hand that was covered in faint green scales. The hand slowly reached out from the center of the vortex, and the five fingers spread apart before gently pressing down toward the air below.
"Boom!" A loud sound rang out.
The top of the seven-color light curtain suddenly caved in with a huge palm print about an acre in size. Under the fierce attacks of the other treasures, the light curtain finally broke into pieces with a muffled sound.
But after this blow, the whirlpool in the sky and the slender palm shadow in it disappeared in a flash.
But the man's face was wild with joy. With a laugh, he went back into the skull of "Shan Gan" below.
"Puff!"
As soon as the expressionless face of "Shan Gan" regained its expression, it suddenly changed greatly and spat out several mouthfuls of black blood. His gray hair suddenly turned snow-white, and his face was full of wrinkles, with a deathly aura exuding from his body.
But even so, "Shan Gan" burst into laughter after spitting out the blood.
"Although this body has only a few months of life left, it's all worth it as long as I can get the True Devil Qi."
As soon as he finished speaking, the silver flywheel and the other treasures all fell down with a "boom", their light dimmed.
Among them, the scroll and a few jade tokens turned into green smoke and dissipated in the air. Countless cracks appeared on the edge of the silver flywheel. Apparently, it was also scrapped.
Only the long black river rolled up, turned into a black drop, and slowly fell from the sky.
Apparently, at this moment, "Shan Gan" had used up all the powerful Dharma power he had obtained at the cost of his life.
But now, looking at the completely naked Giant Foot, his face was full of excitement, as if he had a well-thought-out plan on how to extract a trace of the True Devil Qi.
"Shan Gan" turned over one hand, and a black gourd suddenly appeared in it. He immediately stumbled towards the Giant Foot.
Bound by the white talisman chains, the Giant Foot remained motionless, as if it was not affected by the shattering of the colorful light curtain around it.
Seeing this, "Shan Gan" was naturally relieved. After a few swaying movements, he came to a place less than ten feet away from the Giant Foot, raised the black gourd in his hand, and was about to shake it at the bottom of the foot.
Just then, with a few swishes, several black bristles growing on the bottom of the Giant Foot, which was closest to him, suddenly turned into several long black snakes and darted out.
"Oh no!"
As a former Yuan Mo, "Shan Gan" had always been cautious, though he didn't think the Giant Foot could pose any more danger to him. Seeing this, he cried out involuntarily, and crushed a talisman in his sleeve.
A white light shield appeared in front of him, and the black snakes made of bristles bit the shield with residual shadows, but shrank back with a hissing sound, as if they had met their nemesis.
Seeing this, "Shan Gan" showed a trace of complacency on his face. When he was about to shake the gourd in his hand again, he suddenly heard a "puff" sound, and the smile on his face instantly froze. At the same time, the head of a black snake pierced through his forehead. After a circle, it stared at "Shan Gan" with its blood-red eyes, and seemed to be chewing something.
