Dan Yi's expression darkened. After a while, he asked slowly, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, is that true?"
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "These demons definitely don't know that we are going to investigate. Therefore, what I feel should be true. Just Now, we only came into contact with one of them. As for the rest of the demons, I don't know."
Michito Ichito also frowned and said, "The situation here is a little difficult to judge. Perhaps these demons didn't even touch the treasure?"
Their previous plan was based on Dan Yi's intuition. He believed that these Xiantian demons were refining that supreme treasure and had lost a great deal of their vitality. Thus, this was the best time for them to launch a surprise attack. If that wasn't the case, then their previous plan would have to change.
Dan Yi seriously said, "Fellow Daoists, although I have no proof, my previous intuition shouldn't be wrong. These demons must have been attempting to refine the supreme treasure. If their vitality hadn't been damaged, it's very likely that they'd have given up on trying to do so after seeing how difficult it was."
Zhang Yan did not know why Dan Yi was so sure, but he could feel that Dan Yi's words were very sincere and there was no deception.
However, this matter did not affect him much. Therefore, he believed that there was nothing absolute in this world. He could not expect his opponent to make a stupid mistake. In the end, it still depended on his own strength. Therefore, he had never placed his hope of success on this.
Michito Ichito thought for a while and said, "Could it be that this person has already obtained the treasure?"
Dan Yi shook his head and said, "It is not easy to subdue the treasure. A million years is definitely not enough. Otherwise, Fellow Daoist Huantong would not have set up the prohibition for such a long time."
Zhang Yan nodded slightly. He agreed with this explanation. Back then, the founding master of Qingjue Mountain could probably calculate how long it would take to form a blood bond with a treasure. A million years should be just the right amount of time. This generation could try to form a blood bond with a treasure, but he would not be able to achieve complete success.
From this point of view, even if Dan Yi did not sense it, his previous choice was not wrong.
Michito Ichito said, "I have only heard a little about the treasure. What is it? Can you tell me in detail?"
Dan Yi hesitated for a moment before saying, "There's nothing to hide at this point." He paused for a moment and said, "Because after the upheaval, some of my karma with the Inner Realm was severed and my memories disappeared. I can't tell you the name of that treasure or what kind of power it has, but I can tell you something related to it."
"This treasure is a natural creation, born from Bu Xu Tian. As soon as it appeared, everyone knew that the power of this treasure was great, almost above all other treasures, so they wanted to submit. However, this caused a dispute because after it was refined, it was difficult to decide who would be the one to wield this treasure. This matter has been discussed for more than ten thousand years. Because we were unable to find a suitable person to control it in the end, the Fellow Daoists finally decided to refine this treasure and suppress it in a realm. No one is allowed to touch it rashly and it cannot be easily revealed to the outside world. If one day we encounter a powerful enemy, then it won't be too late to send someone to retrieve it. "
When Zhang Yan and Michito Ichito heard this, they understood. No one dared to let others control such a powerful thing because it was undoubtedly a threat to their own lives.
Dan Yi said, "Back then, in order to refine this treasure, it took about a million years. The number of people who participated in it far exceeded the number of demons and monsters. Therefore, it is impossible for this generation to subdue it in a million years."
Daoist Yi pondered for a long time and said, "Perhaps it was as Daoist Dan Yi said. He tried to subdue this treasure, but when he saw that it was impossible and was afraid that he would exhaust too much of his vitality, he could only give up."
Zhang Yan also thought that this possibility should not be ruled out, because Patriarch Huantong and the other two had killed their way into Bu Xu Tian. If those demons were more cautious, they might really give up on this. After all, they already had a lot of magic treasures in their hands, and they already had a great advantage. Another magic treasure would just be icing on the cake, but if their strength was damaged, it would instead give the demons an opportunity.
As for the possibility that the demons would split up, the others would be refining their supreme treasures, and the demon he came into contact with just now would be in charge of guarding, so his Qi dynamic would be intact. It was not impossible, but it was extremely unlikely, because the result would be that both of them would not be able to refine their supreme treasures with all their might, and they would not be able to guarantee that they would have enough power to defend against external enemies. In the end, both of them would fail.
At this time, Dan Yi looked at the two and asked solemnly, "No matter what, it is very likely that the demons will not have their origin energy damaged at this moment. What do you think, Fellow Cultivators?"
With this result, it was impossible to persuade Mo Cang and the other three, but if Zhang Yan and Michito Ichito gave up because of this, he could not do it alone no matter what.
Michito Ichito said with a smile, "I am not a human path cultivator. Even if I want to hide in the world that Fellow Cultivator Lü Lin and the others have opened, I am afraid that the four of them will not accept me. It seems that I can only go all the way with you."
Dan Yi did not say anything. He only bowed solemnly to him.
He knew that Michito Ichito was only joking. If he was really willing to hide in that world, as long as he was willing to cut off the karma of the past, then Daoist Lü Lin would not reject him.
At this time, both of them looked at Zhang Yan. Among the three of them, his origin energy was the strongest, and it involved another fellow cultivator who was about to reincarnate, so his attitude was the most important.
However, when Zhang Yan saw the two looking at him, he smiled and said with a calm expression, "Fellow Cultivator Dan Yi once said that even if I do not kill that demon today, it will come to kill me in the future. If that treasure has not been refined properly, then this is our only chance. Therefore, no matter what that demon does, I will go with the two of you."
As for the other possibility, which was that the demon had subdued the treasure, he did not say much about it. If it had really come to this, then there was no need to think about anything else.
Dan Yi's heart relaxed, and he also bowed to Zhang Yan solemnly.
Michito Ichito also nodded inwardly. He knew in his heart that he might not really have the chance to enter that world. However, as a human path cultivator, if Zhang Yan suggested hiding, Mo Cang and the others would definitely agree. Even under such circumstances, he was still willing to stand with them, which was enough to show his determination. It was no wonder that he was the only person who had achieved True Yang since the great upheaval.
Zhang Yan judged calmly, "Now that we know the situation of the demon, it's better than before. If we found out about it during the battle, we would be caught off guard. That would be a disaster. Now, we at least have a chance to deal with it."
Dan Yi said in a low voice, "We have at most a hundred years. We must find more ways to fight against the demon."
Michito Ichito thought for a moment, and said, "Please wait for a moment."
He suddenly disappeared. After a few breaths, he reappeared in front of the two of them and took out an incomplete copper talisman. "I found this when I was traveling outside. Its origin is not simple. Perhaps you can find something from it. Fellow Daoists, why don't you take a look?"
Dan Yi first took it, looked at it, and then passed it to Zhang Yan, "Fellow Daoist, please take a look."
Zhang Yan took it, and also looked at it. No wonder Michito Ichito valued it so much. At this moment, not only could he not see the past shadow of the copper talisman, but he could also feel a strong Weili from it, and there were many subtle and mysterious patterns on it. After a while, he said, "This thing is very likely to be a secret talisman to open a forbidden array."
Michito Ichito said, "I also think so. Previously, I studied it for a long time, just to decipher the hidden words on it, and I roughly know where that place is. Originally, I had no intention of breaking into this person's arrangement, but to deal with that demon, it seems that I have to try to find it. Since that place is guarded so tightly, there should be something hidden, and it might be useful to us."
He was also a True Yang cultivator, no matter how powerful the owner of the forbidden array was, he didn't think that he could be more powerful than him. Therefore, he never thought of taking anything, but at the moment, this was the only thing he could do.
Dan Yi was silent for a while, then sighed, "I have also heard of a few cave dwellings opened by fellow Daoists in the Void Essence Sea. I originally didn't want to disturb them, but for the sake of dealing with the demon, I have to make an exception this time."
Zhang Yan thought for a while. There were many records in the Kun Residence, but they could only be read when one's cultivation reached a certain level. Ever since he subdued his own Yuan Qi and successfully reached the second level, he hadn't gone there yet. Perhaps he could find some methods from there. He said, "We don't have much time to waste. If that's the case, let's split up."
Dan Yi and Michito Ichito both agreed. Because these things wouldn't take too much time, the three of them decided to meet again half a year later, then went their separate ways.
Zhang Yan wanted to return to the Kun Residence immediately, but just as he was about to, his heart skipped a beat, and he didn't do so. Instead, he sent a strand of his consciousness back to his body in the Red Continent.
He suddenly opened his eyes, and a dim light flashed in them. Then, he stood up.
After becoming a True Yang, his body had been constantly receiving the infusion of that indescribable thing. Compared to before, it was unknown how many times stronger it was. But no matter how much it grew, it was still within the Sixth Revolution of Strength Path.
He raised his head and looked around. Between the heaven and earth, there was an everlasting scarlet color. Just Now, he suddenly had a sudden impulse, and there must be a reason. He must have sensed something, and maybe he could find a fortuitous encounter here to increase his strength again.
Just as he was thinking about this, there was a clear sound. The Demon Subduing Slip seemed to be responding to him, and flew out of his sleeve. Then, it circled around him, as if it was escaping into the distance. It wasn't really leaving him, but escaping into the "Reversal of Heaven and Earth".
Zhang Yan's eyes flashed. He thought for a while, then also stepped forward. Then, he felt his mind sinking, and the scarlet color around him gradually faded, turning into nothingness. If this place was compared to a lake, then when he reached the Sixth Revolution, he had only touched the shallow layer, but now, he was going deeper into the lake that he had never touched before.
