"I know what happened. Tao Tie Great Sage, thank you for your kindness. Please help me spread the news."
Lin Feng was grateful that Taotie Sage was willing to send a message. After ending the communication with Taotie Sage, Lin Feng continued to search for Golden Cicada by following the Cicada-Winged Golden Alms Bowl.
As expected, Lin Feng was gradually approaching the border of the Spirit Abyss Mountain.
The Spirit Abyss Mountain was a sacred land of Infinite Wasteland. It was extremely suitable for the demon race to cultivate. The demon race that occupied this place was the Primordial Demonic Ape race.
The Primordial Demonic Ape race was a powerful race second only to the Primordial Celestial Dragon race in the ancient primordial era. Like the dragon race, the ape race was also formed from various branches, such as the Extreme Spirit Monkey, Zhuyan Demonic Ape, Heaven Demonic Ape, and so on.
In the early ancient times, the master of the dragon race, Juehuang Xuan Shang, died. The experts of the dragon race also died in battle. The dragon race fell into unprecedented weakness. It was then that the Primordial Demonic Ape race rose, gradually becoming the new monarch of the demon race in Infinite Wasteland.
Afterwards, in the middle of the Primordial Age, the ape race produced a Spiritual Divine Monkey, known as the Divine Abyss Spiritual Divine Monkey. Its strength was unparalleled, and it reigned supreme. It was one of the three strongest Saint Kings in the history of the Heaven Primal World, the Extreme King Divine Abyss.
It was also during the era of Jihuang Shenyuan's rule that the Primordial Demonic Ape race reached its peak and ran amok in the Great Heaven Primordial World.
Ever since ancient times, the Barren Ancient Star Sea had fallen into the hands of the human race. It was only during the reign of the Extreme Emperor's Divine Abyss that the human race had reclaimed it. That battle was the most one-sided battle with the greatest disparity in victory and defeat in all of the wars between the two realms.
It wasn't until the war between the two worlds in the middle era that the Extreme Emperor's Divine Abyss fell that the race of the primordial devil apes gradually went downhill. They were surpassed by the Youdu race that rose up later and the dragon race that concealed their strength.
In the recent thousands of years, just like how the Dragon Race had mostly lived in seclusion in the Profound Sea, the Primordial Demonic Ape Race had mostly lived in seclusion in their ancestral land, the Spirit Abyss Mountain. Only in the past few years had they reappeared in the world on a large scale, causing the Heavenly Desolate Continent to surge.
Golden Cicada had been famous for a long time and had been active since ancient times. The Demon Emperor who ruled over Vast Tianhuang Continent at that time was Jihuang Shenyuan. The Golden Cicada Sage was one of the great demons under Jihuang Shenyuan's command.
With this connection, Golden Cicada would naturally choose a secluded place within the Spiritual Abyss Mountain's sphere of influence. Firstly, he was familiar with the land, and secondly, he was familiar with the people.
However, he would definitely not get too close to the Spirit Abyss Mountain. After all, the current leader of the Spirit Abyss Mountain was a Tongtian Demonic Ape. He had never been on good terms with the ape and had even chased him off the Spirit Abyss Mountain in the past.
Although he was chased down the mountain, he still had people he was familiar with in the Ape Clan, so he could still find a secret place to hide outside of the Spirit Abyss Mountain and within the Ape Clan's sphere of influence.
Now, although the Golden Cicada Sage had also reached the Dharma Ending Realm, he was still alone. It would be very difficult for him to fight the Tongtian Demonic Ape head-on.
However, this Old Cicada had always been crafty. He knew that Lin Feng could vaguely sense his location, so he had the intention of using Lin Feng to kill him with a borrowed knife. He wanted to make Lin Feng stir up trouble in the Spirit Abyss Mountain.
Although the Tongtian Demonic Ape was not on good terms with him, the relationship between the Primordial Demonic Ape Clan and the Human Clan was even worse. When they saw Lin Feng, the Demonic Ape Clan would probably not want to join forces with Lin Feng to deal with him. Instead, they would first kill Lin Feng, who dared to go up the mountain.
When Shi Tianhao was in Vast Tianhuang Continent, he had been besieged by a few Six-Horned Divine Apes. In the end, he killed a few of them. One of them was a late-stage Demon King Six-Horned Divine Ape. It was a rising star of the Demonic Ape Clan in the Spirit Abyss Mountain and was highly regarded by the elders.
This matter caused quite a stir in the Spirit Abyss Mountain. Lin Feng and Shi Tianhao were also aware of it. Therefore, it was definitely not a smooth journey to the Spirit Abyss Mountain.
Of course, Golden Cicada also had to take precautions in case Lin Feng and the Demonic Apes of the Spirit Abyss Mountain temporarily joined forces to deal with him first. Therefore, he also revealed Lin Feng's whereabouts and attracted other great demons to the Spirit Abyss Mountain to cause trouble for Lin Feng.
Not to mention others, the Dragon Clan, which was the strongest race in Vast Tianhuang Continent and was even more powerful than the Demonic Ape Clan, had a bad relationship with Lin Feng.
In the beginning, it was because Xuanmen Tianzong and the Great Qin Dynasty were on good terms. The Great Qin Dynasty's creation Dharma treasure, the Immortal Dragon City, was first made from one of the ancestors of the Dragon Clan, Ancestral Dragon Cang Ning. This was a great humiliation to the Dragon Clan.
In the previous war between the two worlds, the Dragon Clan knew that the Great Qin Dynasty had reclaimed the Immortal Dragon City. The Dragon Clan had specifically targeted the Great Qin Dynasty. If not for the other human experts coming to help, West-Hill City would have been almost destroyed.
However, the Immortal Dragon City, which had not been completely refined, was heavily damaged. After the war, the Great Qin Dynasty had to invest large amounts of resources to repair it.
Even the Dragon Clan in the Taixu Temple's Grand Supreme Dragon Pond was quite dissatisfied with the Great Qin Dynasty.
Xuanmen Tianzong and the Great Qin Dynasty were on good terms. It seemed that Jie Yu, White Light, and the others had been together for a long time, so they could adjust their mentality. However, while the Dragon Clan in Vast Tianhuang Continent hated the Great Qin Dynasty, they did not have a good impression of Lin Feng and his disciple.
Later on, Lin Feng had taken over the Scarlet Thunder Dragon King's body and refined it into Brontosaurus's doppelganger. Just as the Dragon Clan in Vast Tianhuang Continent ended, the news was secretly spread to Vast Tianhuang Continent by someone with ulterior motives. At that time, some Dragon Clan experts expressed their desire to take revenge. However, because Lin Feng was in the Divine Land, they were worried that they would be besieged by human experts, so they held back.
Today, Lin Feng had come to Vast Tianhuang Continent. Naturally, they had to find trouble with Lin Feng.
The situation had become complicated, but Lin Feng was in a good mood. Although many people would be involved, whether it was the Dragon Clan entering the Spirit Abyss Mountain or the Ape Clan dealing with him, it would actually be more beneficial for him to force Golden Cicada out of his hiding place.
Golden Cicada was also well aware of this. Everyone had their pros and cons. As for who would have the last laugh, it would depend on their own means.
Although it was said that two worlds were facing each other now, with the human race and the demon race standing side by side, in fact, dating back to the primordial era, it should be said that hundreds of races existed side by side, or even thousands of races.
At the end of the day, different demon races were also different races. It was just that their cultivation methods were the same, and they were at odds with the human race. Therefore, after the ancient times, the medieval times, and even the present era, the concept of the demon race gradually came into being.
However, the wariness and personal enmity between them would only be more serious than between the major forces of the human race.
To the human race, the demon race could be said to be full of treasures. Many of the raw materials or embryos of Dharma treasures were even taken from the true bodies of the demon race.
However, on the other hand, after devouring the essence spirits, flesh, and souls of human mighty figures and digesting them, it was also a great supplement for the demon race experts.
To the demon race experts, devouring and refining the flesh, blood, and souls of other demons was also a great supplement.
It was not only the Taotie that devoured other demons. The demon race often attacked each other, but most of the other demons' digestive abilities were not as outstanding as the Taotie.
For many great demons, Golden Cicada's flesh and blood were very attractive, because Golden Cicada's supernatural power was very unique.
Although the Cicada's Shedding of Carapace was not like Lin Feng's Mysterious Heavenly Escape or Taixu Temple's Universal Taixu Mystic Light, which could completely avoid the Dharma Ending Tribulation, it was also quite mysterious.
Because of this supernatural power, Golden Cicada, who had completely passed the Initial Tribulation and reached the Dharma Ending Realm, was one of the people who could withstand the Dharma Ending Tribulation the most among the experts of the same realm. Mighty figures whose combat strength was above his might not be able to withstand as many Dharma Ending Tribulation as he did.
For Golden Cicada, his strongest combat method was actually to fight with others against the Dharma Ending Tribulation. This was his strength, but no matter how much he could resist it, when the Dharma Ending Tribulation really came to him, he would not feel good. Therefore, Golden Cicada would not use this method of killing a thousand people at the expense of eight hundred people.
During the reign of Jihuang Shenyuan, Golden Cicada had not gone through the tribulation, so it was not very useful for others to devour his flesh and blood, so no one thought about it.
But now, Golden Cicada had reached the Dharma Ending Realm, and he suddenly became a hot commodity.
If he devoured the flesh and blood of a Great Demon at the peak of the Astral Soul Fusion realm, the success rate and safety of his tribulation would be greatly increased.
Or, if he devoured the flesh and blood of a Great Demon who had survived the tribulation, he would recover from the Degeneration Tribulation in a very short time, and his demonic power would return to its peak.
Naturally, a Great Demon in the realm of Astral Soul Oneness could not do anything to Golden Cicada, let alone take his flesh and blood. However, other Great Demons in the realm of Dharma Ending had to fight for the welfare of their subordinates. Therefore, Golden Cicada had been in hiding all these years, carefully hiding his whereabouts. He would only appear occasionally to avoid being surrounded and hunted by other Great Demons.
This demon's ability to escape was indeed heaven-defying, and he was also cautious, so he was still alive and well until now.
Therefore, Lin Feng was not annoyed by Golden Cicada's revelation that he had come to Infinite Wilderness. His response was very simple.
If you reveal it, I'll reveal it too.
He would also spread the news that he was here to find Golden Cicada, and that he had clues to find Golden Cicada. He would announce Golden Cicada's general location to the public.
Although there was still a possibility of conflict with other Great Demons, these Great Demons could also help him dig out the old cicada that liked to drill into the ground faster.
Along the way, he saw a mountain range suddenly appear on the horizon. It was rather special.
The top of the mountain and the slopes were pure white, crystal clear and translucent. Upon closer inspection, there were many strange white jades on the surface of the mountain. They were lustrous and dazzling, overflowing with Spiritual Qi that was intoxicating.
At the foot of the mountain was a fiery red. Blazing fire Qi soared into the sky, like a sea of fire or a sea of magma.
It was not a real flame, but the condensation of a mineral vein. The fire-elemental Spiritual Qi was oppressive, and the mineral vein was directly exposed on the surface. It was an extremely high-quality Red Smelting Fire Copper mine with a huge reserve.
Red Smelting Fire Copper, Dark Light Enigmatic Iron, Evil Warding Purple Gold, and other materials were collectively known as the Six Great Rare Metals of Heaven and Earth. They were excellent materials for human cultivators to refine artifacts, especially for refining weapons and magic treasures.
The Red Smelting Fire Copper mine at the foot of this mountain range might not be the largest in the entire Heaven Primordial World, but its quality was almost the best.
Seeing that the mountain was full of white jade and the mountain range was full of fire copper, Lin Feng immediately understood. "So we've arrived at Xiaozi Mountain."
Xiaozi Mountain, west of Lingyuan Mountain, was the habitat of the Zhuyan Demonic Apes among the apes.
During a war between the two worlds in the Middle era, the Shu Mountain Sword Sect had ambushed this place for the Red Smelting Fire Copper mine of Xiaozi Mountain. The Sword Ancestor, Ren Changmei, had killed the leader of the Zhuyan Tribe at that time with the Celestial Heavenly Sword. In the end, as soon as they retreated, they were chased by Jihuang Shenyuan to Shu Mountain and were almost annihilated.
The Zhuyan Tribe had always been a strong tribe among the Primordial Demonic Apes. The current Zhuyan Great Sage was the second-in-command of the Primordial Demonic Ape Tribe.
