Mo Wen shook his head secretly. Ma Jingyi was an old monster in the Divine Illusionary Realm, yet he was fawning over Lu Jiahao, the hedonistic young master.
"Refuse? Mo Xiao, do you think this is a game? Military orders are absolute. The day you joined the Alliance, you must have the awareness to obey the organization's orders. If you dare to disobey, you will be obstructing the Alliance's plan to exterminate the demons. When the time comes, even ten of you will not be enough to kill you. "
Lu Jiahao laughed coldly. Refuse? In his territory, Mo Wen still had the right to refuse!
"Mo Xiao, military orders are not child's play. Since you are a member of the Alliance, you naturally have to abide by the rules of the Alliance."
Ma Jingyi looked at Mo Wen calmly. His body released a shocking pressure that enveloped Mo Wen faintly. It was full of threat. It seemed as though if Mo Wen dared to disobey, he would be dead on the spot in the next moment.
"Since I cannot refuse, I will accept the order," Mo Wen said with a faint smile.
"A wise man submits to the circumstances."
Lu Jiahao clapped his hands and laughed. He said proudly, "I will give you fifteen minutes to prepare. Gather at the foot of the mountain after that. If you dare to be late, you will be punished according to military law."
…
The Demon Fire Demon Mountain was a huge flaming mountain range. It was covered in strange demon fire all year round. Even the air was distorted by the flames.
Also, the demon fire of the Demon Fire Demon Mountain did not have much temperature because it only burned the soul.
When immortal cultivators entered the Demon Fire Demon Mountain, they would be constantly burned by the demon fire. Immortal cultivators below the Primordial Soul Realm could not withstand the burning of the demon fire at all. If they did not have any protective measures, they would be easily burned to death.
However, for immortal cultivators above the Primordial Soul Realm, the demon fire of the Demon Fire Demon Mountain was very beneficial. Being burned by the demon fire all year round not only made the soul stronger and more resilient, but it also honed one's willpower.
Therefore, the Demon Fire Demon Mountain was a treasure land. Many immortal cultivators came because of its reputation. However, this was the territory of Patriarch Jiao Lie. Ordinary immortal cultivators had to pay a rather high entrance fee to practice here.
Recently, the Demon-Exterminating Alliance had been aggressive. Their army had come to the city and fought several battles with the Demon Fire Demon Mountain.
The Fey Fire Demon Mountain was just one of Patriarch Jiang Lie's forces. Their overall strength was far inferior to the Demon-Exterminating Alliance's. That was why they had been forced to retreat over the past few days. Most of the outer regions of the Fey Fire Demon Mountain had fallen into the hands of the Demon-Exterminating Alliance.
Mo Wen found it rather strange. The Demon-Exterminating Alliance could gather more than a hundred Divine Illusionary Realm old monsters. It was indeed a rather terrifying force. However, Patriarch Jiang Lie was a Dao Integration Stage mighty figure. If an old b * stard like him were to put in some effort, the Demon-Slaying Alliance would most likely fall apart.
However, the Demon-Exterminating Alliance had been fighting with the Demon Fire Demon Mountain for so long, but Patriarch Jiao Lie had not appeared. Even the eight great lords under him had not appeared. From the beginning to the end, only Old Devil Xu had been guarding the Demon Fire Demon Mountain. This unusual phenomenon puzzled Mo Wen.
At that moment, a group of cultivators was quietly moving deeper into a flaming mountain on the outskirts of Demon Fire Devil Mountain. This was the outskirts of Demon Fire Devil Mountain, but it had already been occupied by the Demon Exterminating Alliance.
"Young Master Lu, this is the seventh entrance that we have discovered that leads deep underground."
Shi Qingping stood on a huge rock that was emitting orange flames. He looked down at a ravine at the foot of the flaming mountain. The entire Demon Fire Demon Mountain was enveloped in orange flames. It stretched as far as the eye could see, stretching tens of thousands of miles.
"We have found a total of nine underground entrances in this area. Each entrance is hidden very well. The surrounding areas are all protected by very advanced concealing stratagems. If I am not wrong, the people of Demon Fire Demon Mountain are probably trying to hide something. If it were not for the Alliance Leader's remarkable abilities, we most likely would not have discovered these entrances. "
A round-faced woman stared at the ravine and said with a cold expression.
This woman was one of the five people in the group. She looked very ordinary on the surface. She was cold and kept a rather low profile. However, Mo Wen knew that among these people, in terms of cultivation, this woman was the strongest. Even Shi Qingping was a far cry from her.
There were usually only two possibilities for the round-faced woman's ability, which was only at the level of the Supreme Profundity Realm. One was that she was the doppelganger of a Divine Illusionary Realm old monster. The other was that she was a Supreme Profundity Realm terminator. Only these two types of immortal cultivators could reach the threshold of the Divine Illusionary Realm when they were at the Supreme Profundity Realm.
Mo Wen's Soul remarkable power could directly determine a person's ability based on their soul. Normal concealing methods could not fool him at all.
"What is inside these underground entrances?" Mo Wen glanced at the ravine below.
"Don't ask what you are not supposed to ask," the round-faced woman said coldly.
Lu Jiahao glanced at Mo Wen with a cold smile. His eyes were full of mockery. Whatever it is, it has nothing to do with you. I called you over just to find a chance to cripple you.
"Let's go. Don't waste time. The other teams have most likely already entered the underground passageways. We cannot fall behind. Otherwise, if Old Demon Xu of Demon Fire Demon Mountain finds out, it will be difficult to find out the secrets inside. "
A glint of excitement flashed in Lu Jiahao's eyes. Although he did not know whether there was really that thing inside, from the information his grandfather had gathered and some ancient legends of Demon Fire Demon Mountain, it should be true.
Now, the biggest problem was how to enter the core region of Demon Fire Demon Mountain.
From the analysis of the information they had gathered these days, there were many passageways that led to the depths of Demon Fire Demon Mountain. However, there were relatively few passageways that led directly to the underground core. What they needed to do now was to find a path that led to the underground core from these underground passageways.
Although Divine Illusionary Realm immortal cultivators could fly in the sky and burrow underground, Demon Fire Demon Mountain was a rather extraordinary place. Normal burrowing techniques would never be able to find the underground core of Demon Fire Demon Mountain. Only by walking through the naturally formed passageways of Demon Fire Demon Mountain could they possibly reach the underground core of Demon Fire Demon Mountain.
"We need to be quick. We definitely cannot let Demon Fire Demon Mountain be alerted in advance," Shi Qingping said with a serious expression.
The group of people followed the entrance of an underground cave and kept flying downwards. The deeper they flew, the deeper the cave seemed to go. They would never reach the end.
Also, the deeper they went into the underground of Demon Fire Demon Mountain, the more terrifying the burning of the demon fire. If people with insufficient cultivation entered without permission, their souls would be burned into nothingness.
From the conversation of these people, Mo Wen finally knew the purpose of this group of people.
Clearly, there was definitely a secret hidden deep underground of Demon Fire Demon Mountain. This secret was something that even the Alliance Leader of the Demon-Exterminating Alliance valued greatly. He had sent a small team of trusted subordinates to scout ahead.
The only way to reach the underground core was through the naturally formed passageways of Demon Fire Demon Mountain. However, before that, they did not know which passageway led to the end. Hence, they needed to scout ahead.
Along the way, they encountered many prohibitions and traps. The immortal cultivators of Demon Fire Demon Mountain must have set them up here to protect and hide these passageways.
