Yang qi
That was the foundation of life, the essence of life.
Even if Polo Forest's spiritual qi was tainted by devilish qi, it was still energy. It was still energy that life needed. It could naturally be merged with Yang qi.
Furthermore, the Nine Yang True Qi was the most domineering existence amongst Yang qi. It could devour any kind of aura.
While others were being careful, Su Fang was secretly absorbing the Polo Forest's energy that had been fermenting for ten thousand years.
Now that he had reached the sixth level of Heavenly Fusion, his strength was constantly advancing. As for the Grand Heavenly Sword Qi and the Myriad God Seal, Su Fang was also cultivating them at the same time. That was because the Myriad God Seal required him to grasp a bit of it.
Fortunately, the seven great divine abilities had all formed seeds within Greenfeather King's body. As long as Su Fang absorbed a few of those seeds, he would be able to cultivate the Myriad God Seal more easily than anyone else.
Two days later, Yuan Luodong gathered everyone. Qin Yuan walked over, covered in dust. "Everyone, just now when I went to scout, I discovered some experts that aren't from our sect. They're currently searching for spiritual items in the forest. Everyone, be careful."
"Just now, we encountered two more corpses. Just look at those corpses and you'll know how terrifying this devil's methods are."
Qin Yuan waved his hand and pulled out a seal from the bag. There were two black and bloody corpses inside. Upon closer inspection, their faces had already rotted away, revealing their white bones. Their skin was also rotting away.
Some black qi had seeped out of their skin. That should be the devilish qi that suppressed Righteous spiritual qi.
The two corpses had died miserable deaths. They had practically died from blood loss.
Even Yuan Luodong's expression changed. He ordered Qin Yuan to put away the corpses. "The seven of us came this time to target this devil. The other heavenly grottos don't care about this devil, but once our heavenly grottos suppress it and bring it back to the sect, it'll be a huge merit. Each of us will obtain a shocking amount of merit. Devils aren't easy to deal with. We've thought about it on the way and have two plans. The first is for everyone to surround and kill the devil. The second is for junior apprentice-brother Fang Yue to take the lead and set up a formation trap ahead of time to lure the devil into the formation and suppress it."
"We don't know how powerful the demon is. Let's go with the first plan and see how powerful the demon is," Qin Yuan agreed.
After the seven of them finished their discussion, they split into two groups. Yuan Luodong and Qin Yuan would lead the others and move separately. However, they did not move too far apart as they were worried that they would not be able to provide support if they encountered a devil.
Su Fang followed Qin Yuan and the two immortal experts into the Polo Forest from the right. When they arrived at the forest, they discovered that some animals were abnormally evil. They seemed to have been infected by the demonic qi and would take the initiative to attack humans.
Half an incense stick later, the four of them surrounded a corpse.
To be precise, it was the corpse of a demon.
The demon's entire body was rotten, and there was a bloody hole in its lower abdomen. It was obvious that its Golden Core had been stolen. Coupled with the demonic poison all over its body, it was definitely the work of a devil.
It could even kill a Big Goblin that had formed a Golden Core. The demon's ability was at least on immortal-level.
Previously, they had seen the corpses of two cultivators. Now, there was the corpse of a demon in front of them. For the four of them, it was a great shock. Who wouldn't tremble at the sight of that demon?
Qin Yuan was constantly in contact with Yuan Luodong. As the four of them went deeper into the forest, they felt that the Whirling Forest was in the shape of a valley. The deeper they went, the deeper they could not see the bottom.
Deep in the forest, there was a dense black fog. The few of them found a collapsed horizontal stone. "These are the ruins of buildings. Could it be that there was a faction in the Polo Forest in the past?"
"I don't know about this!"
No one could explain it clearly.
However, Su Fang knew that since the Polo True Devil had occupied this place in the past, it must be the ruins left behind by the True Devil.
"Buzz." The token on Qin Yuan's waist suddenly moved.
Qin Yuan looked to the left and was extremely nervous. "Senior Brother Yuan is being attacked by demons. There are also four foreign experts ambushing them at the same time. Let's go and reinforce them!"
Swish! Swish!
The four of them did not hesitate. Under Qin Yuan's lead, they quickly flew over the forest.
Half an incense stick later, there was a thunder-like commotion in the forest in front of them. When the four of them arrived at the top of the forest, they saw two Big Goblin snakes. They were more than thirty meters long and were spurting out green demonic qi. It seemed like they were poisonous and were attacking an array formation.
The aura of the array formation was the aura of the Celestial Sealing Sect. It should have been created by the Celestial Sealing Sect's experts.
"Fang Yue, you are the weakest among us. You have to be careful. The three of us will deal with the two Big Goblin snakes first!" Qin Yuan said to Su Fang solemnly.
With the other two experts, they released their Cold Frost Swords. Waves of sword light appeared in the sky. They appeared a hundred meters away and attacked the two Big Goblin snakes.
Su Fang slowly approached. He had to get a clear picture of the situation first. He noticed that there were sounds of fighting in the array formation. The two Big Goblin snakes had already changed their targets. Qin Yuan and the other two were using their Cold Frost Swords to fight from a distance.
It seemed like the Celestial Sealing Sect's experts were slowly turning the situation around.
Green Feather King said, "Those two Big Goblin snakes are even stronger than the little fox. They have condensed their Golden Cores for quite some time. You can hide behind them and wait for the two Big Goblin snakes to retreat. You can suppress them halfway. These two Big Goblin snakes are suitable to be small commanders. If they are not obedient, This King will refine them!"
This was what Su Fang was thinking.
The main reason he had come to the Polo Forest was to suppress the Big Goblin.
He knew that Qin Yuan and Yuan Luodong didn't expect him to be of any help. So he stealthily went behind the two Big Goblin snakes. If the two Big Goblin snakes fled, they would definitely come back.
At this time, the array formation suddenly exploded, and a layer of bloody mist rose.
Yuan Luodong and the other two experts surrounded the two struggling Big Goblin cultivators. Their divine abilities exploded, and with the three of them working together, the two of them were trapped. It seemed they wouldn't have long to live.
Swish.
The two Big Goblin snakes were actually crafty.
As soon as they saw the Immortal Sealing Sect's experts charge out of the array formation, they knew they were outnumbered. As expected, they fled. Before they fled, they spat out a huge amount of green mist that covered the entire forest, making it impossible for Qin Yuan and the others to chase after them.
In truth, they wouldn't easily chase after the Big Goblin in this kind of situation. After all, their target was the devil.
Several miles away, the two Big Goblin snakes were practically flying over. The Big Goblin's body was so huge that the surrounding trees were cut in half.
Whoosh.
Just as they passed through the forest, the image of a pagoda appeared right in front of the two Big Goblin snakes. It suddenly appeared in the air, and with a rumble, the two Big Goblin snakes were suppressed until they were only three meters long. Furthermore, their Big Goblin forms were constantly changing.
"Come!"
Su Fang pushed back, and the two Big Goblins were easily suppressed by the Xuanhuang Six Paths Pagoda.
A King grade Dharma treasure was the strongest treasure in a minor world. Suppressing the two Big Goblin snakes wasn't difficult at all. That was unless they encountered an old antique like the Greenfeather King.
He burrowed back into the forest and returned to his previous position. Looking around, he didn't see the two enormous snakes attacking him. The six experts from the House of Immortal Sealing had already killed the last remaining cultivator. Ignoring Su Fang, they began to distribute the treasures among the remaining cultivators.
They thought that Su Fang didn't know. Who would have thought that Su Fang was using his great circle power to hear their every move?
The Greenfeather King suddenly smiled. "I was right. The devils that appeared here are here to take the Polo True Devil's corpse."
He had suppressed the two Big Goblins and taken them in as junior commanders. Now he was trying to get information from the two Big Goblins. He hadn't expected the two Big Goblins to know so much about the Polo Forest.
"Not only are there devils from the Devil Sealing Sect, but there are also experts from the Ziwei Star Sect. However, they aren't here for the True Devil's corpse. Instead, they're here for the peak high grade Dharma treasure left behind by the Immortal Sealing Sect." The Greenfeather King continued to tell Su Fang the information he had obtained. "This Dharma treasure is called the Green Fiend True Talisman.
Su Fang narrowed his eyes. "Is the Green Fiend True Talisman related to the Green Fiend Trueflame?"
"Your brain really works fast. The Green Fiend True Talisman is indeed related to the Green Fiend Trueflame. It already existed before This King was sealed in the Immortal Sealing Sect. This King has always heard of this treasure, but he didn't know where it was. So the Immortal Sealing Sect had long ago used the Green Fiend True Talisman to seal the Polo True Devil's corpse. The Green Fiend True Talisman is a treasure refined by the Immortal Sealing Sect's experts. It's one of the few high quality treasures the Immortal Sealing Sect refined. Because of how powerful the Green Fiend Trueflame is, it's best to use it as a seal. This King has some runes sealed inside his body that are replicas of the Green Fiend True Talisman. They're just as powerful. Kid, if you can obtain the Green Fiend True Talisman and use it with the Firecloud Spirit Gourd, you'll be able to control the Green Fiend Trueflame even more freely."
"The Ziwei Star Sect is the sworn enemy of the Immortal Sealing Sect. Although the two of them seem to be allies on the surface, they're both secretly trying to steal each other's peerless divine abilities. This King guesses that the Ziwei Star Sect's disciples are here to steal the Green Fiend True Talisman and bring it back to the Ziwei Star Sect to study the secret of the Green Fiend True Flame."
The Ziwei Star Sect.
It was a peak power on the Crimson Firmament Continent that was on the same level as the Immortal Sealing Sect. As for the Ziwei Star Sect, it had been established even earlier than the Immortal Sealing Sect. It was just that the Immortal Sealing Sect had caught up later and grown into its current state.
If Greenfeather King hadn't revealed these secrets, Su Fang wouldn't have known that these large powers were secretly trying to steal each other's divine abilities.
Swoosh!
Yuan Luodong, Qin Yuan, and the other experts flew over, looking exhausted.
After resting for a while, the seven of them once more ventured deeper. They had obtained some information about the devil from the cultivators they had killed before. They could roughly guess where the devil would frequently appear.
They quickly entered a strange mountain range. This mountain range had been completely hollowed out, and it was too sinister. It looked like the petrified corpses of monsters that had died.
They hid in the shadows and stared at the mountain range. Yuan Luodong said, "Let's split up and search. Don't go too far. The devil is most likely somewhere in this mountain range."
After everyone agreed, they went in different directions. Su Fang also chose a direction and went further and further away. It wasn't until they entered the mountain range that they realized this place had once been the Brahma True Devil's Dao Rite. Many of the spaces here had been artificially carved out over many years.
"The smell of blood."
Not only was Su Fang's vision and hearing shocking, but his sense of smell was also shocking. As he passed through the cliffs and caves, he smelled blood.
He carefully passed through some vines, as well as some strange moss and tree roots. Eventually, he saw a relatively hidden cave.
There were some bloodstains in the cave, and there was even a corpse lying inside.
After confirming it was a corpse, Su Fang entered the cave. He didn't find anything strange in the cave. Only then did he carefully examine the corpse. He saw that the corpse was wearing a silver robe. The inner layer of the robe was embedded with some stars.
Ziwei Star Sect
This was a disciple of the Ziwei Star Sect.
Although he was covered by the robe and didn't have a command medallion, this corpse was definitely an expert from the Ziwei Star Sect.
Unfortunately, the Ziwei Star Sect's lower abdomen had also been hollowed out. And strangely, there wasn't much blood left. He was like a withered corpse. There were also some black runes that hadn't disappeared from his temples.
