Xiao Lingyu couldn't bear to watch any longer, so he decided to help.
That Earth Demon cultivator wasn't in the wrong. He attacked his fellow sect member out of fear of death, but that didn't mean he was a vicious person.
If it was Xiao Lingyu, he would've also attacked the person in front of him to protect himself. After all, even though they were from the same sect, they didn't have much of a friendship.
People were selfish. The higher their cultivation, the longer they lived, the more selfish they would be. It was just that their selfish methods were more clever and hidden.
After crossing the middle section of the bridge, the bridge gradually stabilized and everyone quickly reached the other side of the lava pool.
Coming to the Eastern Devil Cave, they hadn't seen any benefits and had already lost an Earth Demon cultivator. This made everyone's hearts heavy.
On the other side of the lava pool, there was only a dark cave. Old Man Li only gave everyone a cup of tea's time to rest and recover before continuing forward with his candle.
Along the way, many demons appeared, but they were all scared away by the fire snakes that came out of Old Man Li's candle. After an hour, they reached the end of the cave.
At the end of the cave was a bottomless abyss. Occasionally, the angry roars of demons would come out, causing everyone to tremble.
On the other side of the abyss, there was a stone wall that stretched as far as the eye could see. On the stone wall, there were countless shining caves.
"Okay, I can only send you here. You can only rely on yourselves for the rest."
Old Man Li pointed at the stone wall in front of them and said, "Those shining caves are your opportunities. You all go in and return within ten years. I will be waiting for you all here. Whether you come out or not, I will leave after ten years because at that time, the sect's True Demon experts will open the entrance. "
Everyone didn't immediately move. They all squinted their eyes and looked at the caves. Hearing the continuous roars of demons coming from the abyss, they all looked a bit timid.
"Of course, if anyone regrets it now, you can wait here with me. But if you do that, you will have wasted your trip." Old Man Li added.
In fact, everyone knew before coming that entering the Eastern Devil Cave not only brought opportunities, but also danger. Since they came, they naturally had the courage to face the danger.
So after a moment of hesitation, someone jumped into the darkness of the abyss and flew towards the stone wall.
In just a few minutes, apart from Xiao Lingyu, all the disciples who had entered had flown away. They each chose a Devil's Den and disappeared into it.
Xiao Lingyu knew that Old Man Li had something to say to him, so he waited and did not move.
"The nests on the other side, the closer you are to the bottom of the abyss, the more dangerous it is to enter. Of course, the opportunities you can obtain are also greater," Old Man Li said.
"What's the greatest danger and opportunity?" Xiao Lingyu pursed her lips and asked.
"Hehe, you won't be able to encounter the greatest danger and the greatest opportunity. Don't look at our East Pole Demon Sect as a third-rate sect, there are many hidden dangers in the East Pole Demon Cave. Even a Spirit Demon Expert would not dare to touch it easily, and if a True Demon Level Cultivator is not careful, they could lose their life at any time. Based on your strength, you can go to one of those devil caves with glowing blue entrances. "Old Man Li explained with a smile.
"You know my specific strength?" Xiao Lingyu asked noncommittally.
When Old Man Li heard this question, he was stunned at first, but then he seemed to be full of confidence and said: "You have experienced the Nine Tribulations and ascended, and now you are in the Early Stage of True Demon. You don't think that just because I am in the Late Stage of Heavenly Demon, I can't see your strength, right?"
"Haha, you can see very accurately, your eyes are like a torch!" Xiao Lingyu said with a laugh.
Although Xiao Lingyu admitted it, Old Man Li felt that Xiao Lingyu's tone was a bit thought-provoking, as if he was not praising him, but mocking him.
"You must want to know what I want to say to you, but it's too early to say anything, let's wait until you come back alive."
Old Man Li suddenly felt that he could not see through Xiao Lingyu, so he did not want to be alone with him for too long, so he urged him.
"That's fine."
Xiao Lingyu did not want to waste time with this old man, so after answering, he also jumped into the abyss.
In Old Man Li's eyes, a silver light flashed quickly, and Xiao Lingyu disappeared without a trace. But looking at the direction the silver light disappeared in, Old Man Li knew that Xiao Lingyu went down into the abyss.
Xiao Lingyu continued to descend, and along the way, there were demons that tried to obstruct him, but he ignored them and dodged them with extreme speed.
In just a hundred breaths of time, Xiao Lingyu had already found the devil's cave that was overflowing with blue light.
Floating at the entrance of the devil's cave, Xiao Lingyu looked down and slightly frowned, because he was still unable to see the bottom of the abyss.
However, on the stone walls below, there were entrances of other colors, and from the bottom of the abyss, there was a very obscure but powerful aura surging up. There were probably very powerful demons hidden below.
Xiao Lingyu only stopped for a few breaths of time, then slowly entered the devil's cave, and carefully advanced.
This devil's cave looked like a tunnel. It was three meters tall and three meters wide, and on both sides were seemingly solid stone walls that flashed with blue light.
After advancing for about an hour, a dazzling blue demon beast blocked Xiao Lingyu's path.
This demon beast was lying in a cave, and seemed to have been sleeping all this time. Now, it slowly opened its hazy eyes and glared at Xiao Lingyu with a bit of anger.
Xiao Lingyu was a bit nervous at first, but when he saw that this demon beast was only a mid-stage Devil King, he relaxed.
The blue demon beast was like a lizard. After roaring twice at Xiao Lingyu, it saw that Xiao Lingyu did not leave, so it roared and charged at him.
The speed of this demon beast was extremely fast. The moment it pounced, the entire cave was suddenly filled with a dazzling blue light. Just as Xiao Lingyu narrowed his eyes, the demon beast's two front claws had already pierced towards him side by side.
If an ordinary Devil King Stage cultivator was here, the moment the blue light flashed, they would have lost their judgment of the surrounding situation, and would have to bear the full brunt of this demon beast's attack. However, Xiao Lingyu was not an ordinary person, and the blue light did not affect him much. When the demon beast's front claws pierced towards him, he had already leaned to the side, dodging the sharp claws of the demon beast. Then, he bent his arm and used his elbow to smash the demon beast's head.
With a bang, the demon beast, which was still charging forward, was stopped in its tracks by Xiao Lingyu's elbow, and its body immediately crawled to the ground.
Not even a moment after the magical beast landed on the ground, its head, which had suffered a heavy blow, was split into pieces.
This demon beast's cultivation was only at the Devil King Stage, and its body quality could not withstand the powerful attack of a near top-grade demon weapon. It was normal for it to be killed by Xiao Lingyu.
Xiao Lingyu naturally would not waste the corpse of this demon beast, and directly put it into the spirit beast bag of the strange cub that was still sleeping.
What made Xiao Lingyu a little curious was that in the cave where the demon beast was originally crawling, there was actually a blue pearl.
The blue pearl did not have a strong energy fluctuation, but its radiance was very dazzling. Just now, the demon beast was enveloped in blue light because it had this pearl on its body.
Xiao Lingyu carefully observed for a while, but could not see the use of this blue pearl. However, he did not abandon it here, but kept it in his storage magic treasure.
Continuing forward, after an hour, Xiao Lingyu walked in front of another cave, and also saw a demon beast crawling, but this demon beast's cultivation was at the late stage of the Devil King Stage.
The battle was completed very easily. For Xiao Lingyu, who could compete with a cultivator at the late stage of the Devil King Stage, the late stage of the Devil King Stage was really vulnerable.
After killing this demon beast, Xiao Lingyu obtained another blue pearl, but he still did not know the use of this blue pearl.
After a while, this tunnel like demon cave came to an end, but there was a deep and dark hole that Xiao Lingyu could continue to move forward.
The hole naturally extended downwards, and from the darkness of the hole, from time to time, there would be a red light shining.
Seeing the red light, Xiao Lingyu was a little hesitant, because the red light looked a little familiar. Before entering this blue demon cave, Xiao Lingyu looked at the bottom of the abyss, and saw this red light.
It could be imagined that this hole should be connected to another demon cave, and that demon cave should be shining with red light, which should be of a higher level and more dangerous than the blue demon cave.
There was already a late stage Devil King Stage demon beast in the blue demon cave, and in the red demon cave below, there would definitely be a Devil King Stage demon beast.
After a little calculation, Xiao Lingyu felt that he should go down and take a look. Even if he encountered a late stage Devil King Stage demon beast, it was not impossible for him to win.
After making up his mind, Xiao Lingyu took a step forward and prepared to jump down. However, just as one of his feet was hanging over the entrance of the cave, a stone slab suddenly appeared and completely sealed the entrance of the cave.
On the stone slab, there were four circular grooves, and they seemed to be about the same size as the two pearls from before.
Xiao Lingyu immediately took out the two pearls, but hesitated.
He only had two pearls, but there were four grooves on the stone slab, which made him a little confused.
Obviously, in order to open this hole, he had to use pearls to fill these grooves, but how to fill them was definitely something he had to pay attention to.
Originally, Xiao Lingyu wanted to go to the red demon cave, but now he directly turned back to the abyss, and if he continued to descend for a while, he would be able to find the entrance of the red demon cave, but the powerful aura from the bottom of the abyss made him feel that it would be very dangerous to find the entrance of the red demon cave from the abyss, and he might even alarm the powerful demon beasts below.
After carefully looking at the stone slab for a while, Xiao Lingyu saw something.
There were two blurry engravings on the stone slab, one in the shape of a treasure box, the other in the shape of an open door, and the two engravings were between two pearls.
