In the sky above Cang Zhu Peak, three figures sat cross-legged opposite each other, discussing how to get rid of the demon. ▲ ↑
Huo Xuan said, "I think the Heavenly Demon is taking advantage of the fact that you don't know anything about him. Since he killed Perfected Hang, I believe he will come looking for you in a few days. Why don't we set up an ambush first, wait for him to come and kill him together?"
Ji Xiangping and Gan Shouting looked at each other. Ji Xiangping asked, "Are you confident?"
Huo Xuan said, "Don't worry, this demon is most afraid of thunder and fire. With this method, we can fight him. Moreover, I brought a treasure from my sect. As long as the Heavenly Demon is lured into the trap, we can defeat him."
Ji Xiangping thought about it carefully. If they didn't get rid of this demon, they wouldn't have a good life. Thus, he decided, "If that's the case, I will be the bait!"
As a Enlightened Master, he had the courage to do so. Moreover, Hang Yuyan also resisted for a period of time. As long as there was a way to deal with it, he was willing to take the risk.
Gan Shouting cupped his hands and said, "Perfected Master Huo, I would like to ask a question."
Huo Xuan said, "Go ahead, Fellow Daoist Gan."
Gan Shouting said, "Perfected Master Huo's method is good, but is it too inflexible? It's hard to say when the demon will come looking for us. If he doesn't come, should we just wait for a day?"
Huo Xuan thought about it and said, "This demon is suspicious. Waiting for him to come is the best plan. If that doesn't work, I have a secret method to find the demon's whereabouts. You two can pretend to take revenge and go look for him. You might be able to lure the demon out."
Gan Shouting thought about it and asked cautiously, "Then let's use half a year as the deadline. If the demon doesn't come, we'll use a backup plan. What do you think, Perfected Master Huo?"
Huo Xuan wasn't optimistic about the backup plan, but after thinking about it, he nodded.
He didn't think that Sima Quan would wait too long. When he was in Dong Hua, he didn't move for a long time because he was afraid of being annihilated by the Enlightened Masters of Dong Hua. Under such circumstances, he must be in great danger and wouldn't miss any chance to strengthen himself. After devouring a Enlightened Master's spirit here, he must have tasted the sweetness. How would he let Gan and Ji go? If he wasn't here right now, he was either looking for an opportunity or plotting something in the dark.
After the three of them had come to an agreement, in order to avoid attracting Sima Quan's attention, they dispersed their Doppelgangers and sat motionlessly at the door, waiting for the Sky Demon to come at any time.
They waited. A hundred days passed.
In an underground cave in the South Continent of Dong Sheng, Sima Quan stared at the Yin Fire in his hand. With a thought, it slowly transformed into a white lotus.
After adding a strand of Hang Yuyan's soul into it, the refinement of this treasure had become much faster. At this moment, it had finally been refined, and he named it 'Left Dao Lotus'.
It was different from ordinary magic treasures. This treasure didn't use any precious materials, only Soul Essence Qi. Therefore, he could carry it with him. When he used it, it could attack the soul of a cultivator. To him, it could be considered a handy weapon.
He pressed the treasure against his chest and it suddenly disappeared. With another leap, he transformed into a gust of Yin wind and exited the cave. When he reached a high point, he gazed into the distant sky and saw two streams of spiritual vigor rising from the ground into the sky. They danced in the air.
He pondered, "I've already killed one of them previously. This time, no matter who I look for first, the other will definitely come to help. I need to be prepared to deal with both of them."
After pondering, he chose one of the weaker spiritual vigor and flew towards that direction with a gust of Yin wind.
These few days, Huo Xuan concealed his spiritual vigor and hid in a hill.
However, there were no insects or beasts within a radius of a few miles where he was sitting. The ground had turned into a scorched red color. This was caused by his Qi dynamic leaking out when he was circulating his mana. However, if no one came close to take a look, it would be difficult to notice the abnormality here.
At this moment, the Jade Talisman on his lap suddenly trembled and turned towards the west. In just a few breaths, the front half of the jade body was burnt black. Just as the Jade Talisman was about to be burnt, he stretched out his hand and stopped the spiritual vigor from spreading. He kept it carefully and then looked at the direction where the Jade Talisman pointed. He saw a prominent spiritual vigor at the end, it was the direction where Fengxiang Sword School's Gan Shouting was.
He knew that the Sky Demon had made a move, so he stood up and wanted to follow. However, he only took one step before he stopped.
After thinking for a while, he flicked his sleeves and took out two bamboo talismans. He flicked his fingers and shot out two rays of spiritual light. Two light shadows appeared on the talismans.
Ji Xiangping's voice came from one of the light shadows, "Fellow Daoist, did you call us because you've found the traces of the demon?"
Huo Xuan said, "Yes. This demon has already gone to where Fellow Daoist Gan is, he must be plotting against Fellow Daoist Gan. "
Gan Shouting cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for informing me, Zhenren Huo. I'll go prepare now and wait for the demon to come."
Ji Xiangping also said excitedly, "Alright, Brother Gan, please hold on for a while, we'll catch up soon."
Huo Xuan interrupted, "Both of you, I think that Zhenren Gan needs to hold on for a while."
Ji Xiangping said, "What do you mean? Could it be that there are some changes? "
Huo Xuan's voice did not have any fluctuation, he said, "The Sky Demon is the most suspicious. After thinking about it, he might try to test us this time. However, Just Now is the time for him to make a move. If we were to alarm him before this, he might escape."
Ji Xiangping was surprised, "Doesn't Zhenren Huo have a talisman with him?"
Huo Xuan said, "The Sky Demon can turn invisible, I can only roughly know where he is. If he only tests us with his doppelganger and we act hastily, we'll definitely fail. That's why we need to wait for him to go all out before we can deal with him. However, if we do that, Zhenren Gan will have to suffer a little more.
Ji Xiangping was slightly dissatisfied with his sudden change of heart, but now was not the time to be angry. She held back her temper and asked, "What do you say, Brother Gan?"
Gan Shouting was silent for a while before saying, "Zhenren Huo's words make sense. Moreover, I'm already prepared this time, I won't be like Yu Yan, having my soul easily taken away by him. Both of you, if I don't call for help later, there's no need to come and save me."
Ji Xiangping was stunned, he sighed, "Brother Gan, why do you have to do this?"
He knew that this was like playing with fire, if he was not careful, he would suffer the consequences.
Gan Shouting was very calm, he said, "I've made up my mind. If you were in my shoes, I think you would do the same."
Huo Xuan did not say anything else, he only bowed to him solemnly.
After he stood up, Gan Shouting's doppelganger disappeared. The bamboo talisman that he entrusted himself with broke in the middle and fell to the ground with a clatter.
Sima Quan flew towards the spiritual opportunity for a few hours, he arrived at a mountain range. The terrain here was strange, it was shaped like feathers, overlapping each other. There was a state of ascension, it was as if a gust of wind would blow it straight up to the clouds.
He knew that this must be the mountain gate of Fengxiang sword school, Hongyu Mountain. However, he could not see the majestic spiritual opportunity here.
He looked left and right. He thought, "There must be a spiritual treasure or formation in this mountain, causing the spiritual opportunity to be mixed up, like clear and muddy water mixing together, making it hard to differentiate."
This mountain gate was huge, there were countless temples and pavilions. If there was no obvious target, just going one round would take a long time. However, he did not have to do that. With a shake of his body, he split into hundreds and thousands of demons, all of which were shapeless, and flew to different places, searching for the location of Gan Shouting's cave.
If it was before, to turn these demons into shapeless, it would definitely cost him a lot of spiritual opportunity, he would not dare to do it carelessly. However, it was a piece of cake now.
In less than a moment. He sensed something, he smiled weirdly and turned to fly in that direction. All the restrictions and formations along the way seemed to sense something was passing by, they did not respond at all. Not long after. He arrived at a high platform.
The layout of this place was strange, there were six sharp rocks, supporting the top of each other, and the center was empty. There was a polished big rock, in the middle was a ten to thirty feet wide pond, the pond water was clear, cold smoke was coming out, and there was a bronze cauldron in it. At this moment, there was a Daoist with a crown on his head and a sword on his back sitting in the north, he looked like he was guarding the cauldron.
Sima Quan looked at the Daoist's aura, he knew that he must be Gan Shouting from Fengxiang sword school's Dongtian. He knew that after what happened last time, he would not be unprepared. For him to set up such a formation, he must have made some arrangements. He wanted to observe carefully, leave a clone outside, and then make a move, so that if there was a dangerous situation, he would have a way out.
However, just as he was thinking about this, the demonic nature appeared, urging him to quickly devour this person's soul.
Sima Quan scoffed coldly, he wanted to suppress it, but not only did this not happen, it even caused the demonic nature to explode, as if it wanted to snatch this demonic body from him. He was not willing, he doubled his strength to suppress it, but as the two fought, the spiritual vigor in his body was reduced by ten percent.
He couldn't help but be shocked because if this continued, then he would probably be exhausted to death before the outcome of the battle could be decided. In his helplessness, he could only comply with Gan Shouting's wishes and stop being in a stalemate, and then he charged directly towards Gan Shouting.
As expected, with this, the demonic nature immediately disappeared, like a receding tide, and sank back into the depths, unmoving.
Gan Shouting suddenly felt a gust of cold wind enter his body and knew that the devil had arrived. He shouted angrily and the sword on his back flew up and turned into a ray of spiritual light in the sky. In a flash, it came down from the top of his head. After a while, his body emitted waves of thunderous sounds and bright lights flashed everywhere.
The six huge rocks immediately flew down a few golden chains, and fused with the spiritual light, then a huge amount of spiritual vigor poured into his body. This was him using the spiritual vigor of the entire mountain gate to support and strengthen his spirit.
Sima Quan noticed this, but he was not surprised, instead he was happy, this method could certainly slow down the situation, but it could not do anything to him. His opponent's actions obviously meant that there was no other way to control him, he immediately laughed, and sneaked into the depths of his spiritual consciousness.
At this moment, Huo Xuan was near Fengxiang sword school, and because Spiritual Master Ji did not have the Qi Concealing Technique, in order to not be detected by Sima Quan, he did not leave the mountain gate, only leaving his light and shadow form, ready to make a move before rushing over.
The two of them waited outside for three days, Ji Xiangping saw that Huo Xuan did not move, she could not help but ask, "Spiritual Master Huo, why are you not making a move?"
Huo Xuan said in a low voice, "Spiritual Master Gan has not called for help, it is obviously not time yet."
Ji Xiangping raised her voice, "Perhaps Brother Gan is in danger, and has no strength to call for help, Spiritual Master Huo must not hesitate any longer."
Huo Xuan was unmoved, he said in a low voice, "My friend Gan does not speak much, but I can see that he is calm and intelligent, since he said this, he must be confident."
Ji Xiangping stared at him, but there was nothing she could do.
After waiting for another two days, suddenly a golden light flew out of the mountain gate, Huo Xuan saw it, his eyes lit up, he said, "Now is the time." He waved his sleeve, and immediately a spiritual stone flew into the sky, forming a spiritual light screen, covering the entire Hongyu Mountain!
