Feng Qixing said, "Those Star Demon have also comprehended the Star Great Dao."
"That's fine. Don't worry, I'll be careful."
Jiang Changkong merged with heaven and earth and brought them inside.
The Star Demon's territory was deep in the mountains, and there were star formation patterns everywhere.
Jiang Changkong followed his senses and was shocked to discover that the treasure was actually at the bottom of the mountain.
This group of Star Demons actually set up a formation on a treasure that was close to divine level. An Clan, they were really ambitious.
Feng Qixing's expression was ugly. "Don't tell me that the treasure is in the mountain?"
"It's under the mountain." Jiang Changkong pondered. "I'm wondering if I should get rid of the Star Demon first or enter the treasure."
"If I get rid of the Star Demon first, I'm afraid it will cause a huge commotion and attract more experts."
Liangqiu Xuanyi analyzed. "In that case, it will be more difficult to enter the treasure."
"If we can sneak in, let's do it," Feng Qixing said after a moment of silence. "Once we make a move, my family will discover you."
"Is your home really nearby?" Jiang Changkong was slightly surprised.
Feng Qixing hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Sort of."
"Didn't you want me to go home with you?" Jiang Changkong was puzzled. "Now that we're near your home, you don't want me to be exposed?"
"Because there are other forces apart from my family," Liangqiu Xuanyi said calmly. Liangqiu Xuanyi said calmly, "You and your clan don't want other powers to know that Long Sky is here."
Feng Qixing sighed. "That's right. My family's methods can be considered gentle. I've never thought of taking your life, but I can't be sure about others."
"There are quite a number of Star Remnant Beings."
Jiang Changkong's eyes narrowed slightly as he silently led them into the ground.
The Soul-stabilizing Tree shook, and the Soul Star Runes vibrated violently as if they were cheering.
There was nothing unusual in the depths of the ground. Feng Qixing and Liangqiu Xuanyi didn't see anything strange.
The Soul-stabilizing Tree's roots spread out and went deep into the ground.
Jiang Changkong followed the roots of the Soul-stabilizing Tree.
Half an hour later, a faint soul energy fluctuation spread out. Next, the three of them felt their vision blur and they found themselves in a world of darkness.
A door stood in the dark space, tightly shut.
There were countless veined patterns on the door, emitting faint soul fluctuations.
"This is the Near Divine Treasure?"
A trace of excitement appeared on Liangqiu Xuanyi's calm face.
Feng Qi Xing couldn't help but say, "Near divine treasures. I've only heard of them before, but this is my first time here."
"I can only say that you, a remnant of the universe, are really miserable." Jiang Changkong said disdainfully.
"Don't call me that. I'm really a part of Earth." Feng Qi Xing didn't like this title at all. He said, "Do you really think it's that easy to find treasures close to gods?"
Jiang Changkong said lightly, "Even a God can't find it?"
"The current Near God can't be compared to the past."
Feng Qi Xing shook his head and said, "Many Martial Skills and Secret Techniques have been lost. Even a Near God can't find these treasures."
"I've never seen a Near God before, so I can't be sure. However, we are indeed far inferior to those old monsters."
As Jiang Changkong spoke, he stretched out his right hand. The roots of the Soul-stabilizing Tree covered his palm.
He placed his hand on the door, and the roots rapidly spread out, following the veined patterns on the door.
In less than a few breaths, the roots of the Soul-stabilizing Tree covered the entire door.
"Buzz!"
The door trembled and slowly opened, revealing a dark space.
"Let's go."
Jiang Changkong led the two into the door.
Inside the door was still a dark space, a boundless darkness.
"Another maze?" Liangqiu Xuanyi said softly.
"No." Jiang Changkong pointed at his feet. "You'll know when you see it."
Liangqiu Xuanyi lowered her head. In the darkness, there was a stone path under her feet.
"Let's go."
Jiang Changkong led them forward on the stone path.
The stone path was only two meters wide, with empty space on both sides. No one knew where they would end up if they were to fall into it.
As they stepped on the stone path, a strong Soul Dao lingered in the air, and a pressure came from their souls.
Jiang Changkong did not feel anything with the protection of the Soul-stabilizing Tree.
Liangqiu Xuanyi and Feng Qiqi were startled. Their seven orifices were bleeding, and their expressions twisted.
Jiang Changkong frowned. The Soul-stabilizing Tree rose above his head and shone brightly. The pressure on the two immediately disappeared.
Rumble!
The door behind them began to tremble, and a powerful force soared into the sky.
"Damn it, why is there a commotion?" Jiang Changkong frowned. He was afraid that the Star Demon would be alerted.
"As expected of a Near God's treasure. Even after so many years, the seal of the Great Dao is still so strong."
Feng Qiqi panted heavily. He used his star force to get rid of the bloodstains.
"A Near God's treasure is indeed not something that ordinary people can get their hands on. If it wasn't for the Soul-stabilizing Tree, I would be dead by now."
Liangqiu Xuanyi spoke with lingering fear in her heart.
The soul pressure here was simply too terrifying. She was only at the early-stage Star Embryo Realm, and there was no way she could resist it.
Jiang Changkong led them into the depths of the ancient path.
The star rune on his forehead gradually grew hotter, as though it wanted to leave his body and fly into the depths.
After walking for an hour, the three of them finally arrived at the end of the stone path.
A flight of stairs extended into the darkness ahead. It was unknown what was hidden in the boundless darkness.
The three of them stepped on the stairs, and an increasingly dense Dao rune gushed over. On the stairs, rays of gray light flashed as they climbed rapidly.
"What the hell is this?"
Liangqiu Xuanyi's expression changed slightly. On the stairs, densely-packed gray lights the size of fingernails were crawling rapidly.
"Soul Worms feed on souls. They are the favorite pets of soul cultivators in the Interstellar Era."
Feng Qiqi's scalp turned numb, and he said in horror, "Be careful not to step on them. These worms are very hard to kill. They can parasitize souls and eat living beings until they become empty shells."
"Even the Soul-stabilizing Tree can't chase them away?" Liangqiu Xuanyi's face turned pale.
"Now you know fear?" Jiang Changkong glanced at her. "It's good to have more expressions. You don't look good at all."
"You still have the mood to joke at a time like this," Liangqiu Xuanyi said angrily.
"The Soul-stabilizing Tree can guarantee that we won't disturb each other as long as we don't step on them," Jiang Changkong said calmly.
Feng Qiqi said in a deep voice, "Then let's fly up. We can't step on them anymore."
"Lift your head up yourself," Jiang Changkong said calmly.
Feng Qiqi slowly lifted his head, and his body stiffened. Every inch of his head was filled with soul worms.
If he flew up, wouldn't he be eaten clean by the soul worms?
"What should we do now?" Liangqiu Xuanyi grabbed his arm tightly, feeling extremely nervous.
Jiang Changkong fell silent for a moment. "Let's hope it's still useful."
The six-story palace was taken out, and a special Dao rune of the soul spread out. Moreover, the more it spread out, the lesser it became.
The surrounding soul worms seemed to have met their nemesis, and they frantically retreated.
"Why didn't you take it out earlier?" The two of them heaved a sigh of relief.
"Let's hurry up and leave. I'm not sure how long this thing can be used." Jiang Changkong shook his head.
This six-story palace didn't have much Dao rune left. If it continued to dissipate, it was unknown if it could last until they obtained the treasures.
This was also the reason why he didn't take it out immediately.
