The Giant Peak was called the Giant Peak not because it looked like a giant standing proudly between heaven and earth, but because there were a few giant stone statues on the steep cliffs of the Giant Peak.
Ordinary cultivators could not fly, so they could not see the giant statues up close because they were all halfway up the mountain.
Although Xiao Lingyu could not fly directly to the top of the Giant Peak, he could still fly halfway up the mountain. He flew up with Cang Ju and quietly observed the statues.
The giants in the statues were either sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed, or looking up at the sky with their hands behind their backs. Some had long hair flying in the wind with their eyes wide open, and some had a serious expression with their heads lowered …
When Xiao Lingyu heard that there were giant statues here, he thought that there was a secret hidden in these statues and that he could comprehend some kind of peerless technique. He did not expect that after looking at them for half a day, he could not comprehend anything at all.
Apart from the fact that these statues had realistic expressions and were worthy of praise for their large size, there was nothing special about them. Xiao Lingyu was slightly disappointed.
"The key is not in these giant statues. They are just trying to hide something and attract everyone's attention. If we pay too much attention to these statues, we will not gain anything even if we come here a thousand times," Cang Ju explained when he saw Xiao Lingyu's strange expression.
"Then where is the key?" Xiao Lingyu asked.
"The key is in the nostrils of these statues. Through there, we can enter the inside of these statues. The place we want to go is inside these statues." Cang Ju pointed at the faces of the statues and said.
"I see. If we did not know the secret behind it, it would be really difficult to find this key just by looking at it with the naked eye or using our minds," Xiao Lingyu said in admiration.
"However, even if there is a secret behind it, it is not easy to enter the inside of the statues. The space inside is huge and there are many restrictions. Not to mention that one careless mistake could lead to death. Even if there are no restrictions blocking the way, it will be very difficult to go deep because there should be some strange magical beasts that have cultivated for many years inside," Cang Ju said worriedly.
"Strange magical beasts?" Xiao Lingyu frowned slightly.
"Yes, strange magical beasts. They may be magical beasts that can be easily found in the Demon Realm, but there will be some changes that will be very troublesome to deal with. I do have a way to deal with those restrictions. It's just that I don't dare to rashly set foot in those magical beasts all these years. "Cang Ju nodded and said.
"How strong are those magical beasts?" Xiao Lingyu asked again.
"They should all be below Spirit Demon," Cang Ju guessed.
"Even if they are all below the Spirit Demon Stage as you said, but if there are Late True Demon Stage or Peak True Demon Stage existences, then the two of us won't be able to fight against them. Moreover, you can't rule out the possibility of Spirit Demon Stage magical beasts. It's too risky to go in like this." Xiao Lingyu said cautiously.
"If you think it's dangerous, then we can make more preparations before going in. This is already our territory, so there's no harm in going in later," Cang Ju said.
Xiao Lingyu thought for a while and said, "The world is changing. Today, this is our territory. Who can guarantee that there won't be any changes here in the future? Who can guarantee that we will have a chance?"
The reason why Xiao Lingyu said this was not that she was not worried about those dangers, but she felt that if she left this time, maybe Cang Ju would have already gone in alone before she came back again.
"Then let's go in and give it a try. Maybe there are no strange magical beasts inside at all."
Cang Ju said, then moved his body and slowly approached the nostrils of a stone statue.
From afar, the nostrils were not big, but when they got closer, they found that the nostrils were oval in shape. The largest diameter was no less than five feet. It could easily accommodate Xiao Lingyu and Xiao Lingyu at the same time.
Entering the nostrils of the stone statue, it was completely dark, but the vision of the two was not too limited. The two of them could also see through their bodies without hindrance.
First, they slowly went up for a while, then the road ahead suddenly turned and extended downwards.
After going down for about a thousand feet, Xiao Lingyu finally felt the fluctuating aura of the restriction, and the restriction was not weak.
Cang Ju said that he had a way to deal with the restriction inside, so Xiao Lingyu was not in a hurry to make a move. She waited for Cang Ju to cast a spell.
Cang Ju did not dawdle. He walked in front of the restriction and took out a spirit beast bag. He shook it in the air and a silver light flew out.
The silver light hit the restriction in an instant, but it did not cause any ripples. Instead, a beetle-like magical beast appeared.
"This is a Forbidden Devouring Bug. As long as it is not a top-grade magical restriction, it can devour all the restriction energy in it. This restriction will also melt like ice and snow. We don't have to spend too much effort, but it will take some time," Cang Ju explained.
"Brother Cang is really extraordinary. You can even get such a rare thing like the Forbidden Devouring Bug." Xiao Lingyu praised.
Although the Forbidden Devouring Bug's bloodline was not comparable to a Divine Beast and could barely be regarded as an upper-rank Divine Beast, its ability to destroy restrictions was incomparable to many upper-rank Divine Beasts.
"The Forbidden Devouring Bug is actually not a big deal. After all, it is extremely difficult to cultivate, and it can easily die. Many people are not willing to spend too much effort on it," Cang Ju explained while waiting for the Forbidden Devouring Bug to destroy the restriction.
"Indeed, the Forbidden Devouring Bug below the Mystical Demon Stage is not very useful. It can only destroy some upper-grade magical restrictions, and its speed is very slow. It also needs the restriction to be unguarded." Xiao Lingyu knew a little about the Forbidden Devouring Bug, so she was able to continue the conversation.
"Yes, the Forbidden Devouring Bug seems to be able to devour restrictions, but it does not have any strong self-protection ability. It is very easy to be killed. Only when it grows to the Mystical Demon Stage can it drive the restriction power in its body to attack and defend itself. Moreover, when it reaches the Mystical Demon Stage, its carapace is comparable to an ordinary top-grade defensive magical treasure. It is not easy to die. Even if there is a restriction guarded by someone, it can withstand the attack of others and destroy the restriction," Cang Ju continued to add.
"It is said that if the Forbidden Devouring Bug can reach the Demon Overlord Stage, its carapace is comparable to a defensive magical artifact. Even if it is a top-grade magical array guarded by someone, it can be destroyed in a moment. Even if it is a divine array, as long as there is no one guarding it, it can also swallow it into its stomach. It just takes a little longer," Xiao Lingyu sighed and said.
"There are more than hundreds of millions of Forbidden Devouring Bugs in the Demon Realm, but it is estimated that not even one of them can reach the Demon Overlord Stage. Cultivating a Forbidden Devouring Bug in the Demon Overlord Stage not only requires countless restrictions of various grades, but also takes a very long time. According to records, there was a Forbidden Devouring Bug in the Demon Overlord Stage in the Demon Realm, and the cultivation time of that Forbidden Devouring Bug was three times that of a Demon Overlord Stage master …" Cang Ju also sighed and said.
Xiao Lingyu and Xiao Lingyu talked about the Forbidden Devouring Bug for half an hour before the Forbidden Devouring Bug destroyed the restriction in front of them. Cang Ju just slightly surged his aura, and the remaining power of the restriction was shaken away.
The road ahead was opened, and the two kept the Forbidden Devouring Bug and continued to move forward.
Just like this, the two of them used most of the day to destroy over 10 high-grade Devilish Restrictions, yet they actually didn't encounter the strange Devilish Beasts they'd imagined. Xiao Lingyu couldn't help but wonder if Cang Ju had intentionally said that there were dangerous strange Devilish Beasts here to make him feel fearful and not dare enter.
Just when Xiao Lingyu was suspecting Cang Ju, a strong wind blew in his face, and Xiao Lingyu punched out without thinking.
Bang!
With a loud bang, Xiao Lingyu felt a sharp pain in his fist, and his fingers became wet and hot.
His fingers were injured!
Xiao Lingyu was shocked, and his body also took a few steps back. After standing still again, he looked at his bleeding finger and frowned.
His finger was close to the quality of a top-grade Immortal Artifact, but it was injured, which meant that the attack just now was comparable to a top-grade Immortal Artifact.
"It's a Demonic Beast!" Cang Ju also retreated to Xiao Lingyu's side and whispered.
That gust of wind disappeared after attacking Xiao Lingyu. No matter how Xiao Lingyu searched, he was unable to see the other party's figure. This meant that not only was the other party extremely fast, his attack power was also not weak, and he was also good at hiding his figure.
Such a Demonic Beast was very dangerous for any True Demon Stage expert. Xiao Lingyu had reason to believe that if he did not come in, Cang Ju alone would have lost his life.
Xiao Lingyu and Xiao Lingyu were on full alert for a long time, but the strange Demonic Beast did not attack again. Cang Ju said, "It may know that it can't do anything to us, so it has escaped. Let's move on."
Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, "Okay, let's move on, but we have to be more careful."
Although the magical beast had disappeared without a trace and seemed to have escaped, Xiao Lingyu always felt that there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at him in the dark. He felt that the two of them had become the prey of the magical beast. Moreover, the other party was very patient. After a failed sneak attack, it would hide and look for the next opportunity. It could be considered an excellent hunter.
However, Xiao Lingyu was definitely not a docile sheep. If the Demonic Beast appeared again, Xiao Lingyu would definitely attack it head-on. Just now, he was in a hurry, otherwise, the Demonic Beast would not have had the chance to escape.
It was also because he was confident that Xiao Lingyu dared to move on.
It wasn't long before the two of them were stopped by another restriction, and there was actually a magical beast that wasn't very large and had soft dark red fur lying in front of the restriction.
The Demonic Beast was very strange. It had two heads, one was like a lion's head, and the other was like a tiger's head. However, the two heads were at the front and back of its body. In this way, it only had a head and no tail.
"This isn't a Liger Beast, is it?" Cang Ju asked curiously.
"No, although the Liger Beast also has a lion's head and a tiger's head, the two heads are together. However, the strength of this Demonic Beast is not weak. Its cultivation should have reached the True Demon Stage." Xiao Lingyu shook his head and said.
"The restriction behind it should be a top quality Demonic Formation." Cang Ju added.
"Are we almost there?" Xiao Lingyu asked.
"No, we have only walked less than a third of the way." Cang Ju shook his head and said.
