As the Golden Crow spoke, it sprinkled a few drops of blood into the cauldron. Then, it activated its Demonic Qi and the small cauldron immediately began to spin. Not long after, an aura that ordinary people would not be able to detect spread out in all directions. In the mountain forest, the demonic beasts began to panic. As for the Golden Crow, it closed its eyes and silently chanted an ancient incantation, as if it was secretly controlling this power.
After about seven breaths, it opened its eyes and swallowed the small cauldron.
"It's about time, let's go!"
As it spoke, it spread its wings and flew in the southwest direction.
Fang Xing pondered for a moment, then chuckled and said, "What's the hurry? Let's lure them there first!"
As he spoke, he transmitted a message to Wu Xiangtong and explained the situation to him. Then, he returned to the forest and circled around, not in a hurry to search.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Xiao Jianming noticed that the disciples of the Mountain River Valley and the Literary Valley had all rushed towards the southeast direction. Xiao Jianming, who was flying in the sky, also glanced at Fang Xing from afar, before riding his iron eagle and flying in that direction.
Seeing that most of the people had turned in that direction, Fang Xing also leisurely flew over on the Golden Crow.
After hearing the Golden Crow's words, he took the initiative to let Wu Xiangtong leak the news that Grasshopper might be in the southeast direction. He believed that the other disciples of the Blue Cloud Sect would go over to take a look regardless of whether they believed it or not. Then, as long as there was any trace of Grasshopper, they would definitely discover it. When the news was leaked, everyone would be lured over to kill Grasshopper.
He was not so foolish as to quietly fight Grasshopper alone. Not to mention whether or not he could successfully kill Grasshopper, just the commotion of the battle would attract a lot of attention. It would not be good if Xiao Jianming took advantage of his fight with Green Centipede to pick up the loot. It would be better to let Xiao Jianming fight Grasshopper first, while he used the Dragon Tendon Bow to pick up the loot...
The group of people rushed in that direction. After walking a dozen or so steps, everyone was suddenly startled.
However, he saw that the forest had already been cut off, and there was an altar surrounded by the forest. It was about three hundred feet tall, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top. The center of the altar was empty. Looking down from above, it was pitch black, like a giant beast with its mouth wide open, as if it wanted to swallow the heavens. And in this black hole, if one used the Dharma Eyes, one could vaguely see black smoke spewing out, all of which was dense Demonic Qi.
Around the black hole, there were nine chains floating in the air. The chains were covered in runes. Even after a few hundred years, the chains were still black without the slightest trace of rust. They looked extremely terrifying.
"Sealed land …"
"We've actually arrived at the sealed area!"
A disciple of the Blue Cloud Sect exclaimed. He did not expect to come to this place while searching for Grasshopper.
This altar was the place where the Golden Core Stage Daemon King was sealed. It was also the source of the many beasts in the Desolated Mountains. If not for this altar, these beasts would probably be ordinary beasts forever, and would not have the chance to be contaminated by Demonic Qi. It was precisely because of this that the disciples of the Blue Cloud Sect did not directly come to re-seal the altar, because that would cause the beasts to go crazy.
"I see. That Grasshopper must have been injured and urgently needed more Demonic Qi to heal. That's why he escaped to this place to absorb Demonic Qi. Looks like your judgment just now was right …"
Fang Xing understood and said in a low voice.
Looking at such a huge altar, he secretly felt a sense of awe.
This thirty feet tall altar was only used to seal a Daemon King. Although it was called an altar, it was actually a tomb. Moreover, it was a tomb that was sealed inside when the Daemon King was still alive. Not only was it sealed, it was also continuously releasing its Demonic Qi for hundreds of years. In other words, it was forcefully destroying its cultivation and using the Demonic Qi to destroy demonic beasts and strange plants for the cultivation of the disciples of the Dao Sect …
This kind of method was really chilling. It was far from what a bandit lair in the mortal world could compare to!
Especially when he thought that the Daemon King might still be alive under this altar, Fang Xing felt a chill down his spine. A powerful Golden Core Stage Daemon King was sealed for hundreds of years. From being able to control the wind and clouds to being reduced to a lowly servant, he felt the process of weakening bit by bit. Moreover, there was no hope. He knew that his soul would be destroyed sooner or later. This was the most terrifying punishment in the world.
"Hehe, forget it. I have to be careful in the future. The winner takes all. The feeling of losing is not good …"
Fang Xing was not a sentimental person. He quickly reacted and warned himself in his heart that this was the result of his loss.
If a mortal lost, even if he lost his life, at least he had a chance to be reincarnated. Even if his soul was destroyed, he would only be unconscious and scattered between heaven and earth. As for cultivators, be it demons or demons, although they had great power and vitality, once they lost, the feeling was really not something that a mortal could imagine.
Since he had embarked on the path of cultivation, he would certainly be a person who locked his opponent in the altar in the future. He must not be a person who was locked in the altar by his opponent. Otherwise, it would be more comfortable to cut his own throat as soon as possible.
"Found it …"
Just as Fang Xing was thinking, someone suddenly shouted. Immediately, he saw a talisman flying straight into the sky.
Fang Xing was startled. He immediately urged the Golden Crow to fly over.
But he saw that at the edge of the altar, a black dragon-like existence suddenly drilled out of the ground. It roared madly and rushed towards four or five black dots on the ground like ants. Those black dots were the disciples of the Valley of Literature. It was them who had discovered the whereabouts of the Grasshopper and immediately sent a message. But this immediately enraged the Grasshopper and caused it to be attacked in a frenzy.
"Senior Martial Brother Xiao Jianming, save us …"
The disciples of the Valley of Literature, Pi Junzi, and the others used their golden talismans to block the Grasshopper's attack.
In the distance, Xiao Jianming looked coldly at Fang Xing. Fang Xing laughed and took out the Bow of Alarm, but he did not go down.
It was almost clear that he would not go down. But after he went down, he would look for an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
Xiao Jianming secretly cursed. But he had no choice but to make a move. Because the disciples of the Valley of Literature had sent a message to him through flying talismans. They had also received his orders to find the traces of the Grasshopper. No matter what, he could not be like Fang Xing and stay out of this matter.
"Junior Brother Fang, if you want this Grasshopper, I can let you have it!"
Xiao Jianming looked at Fang Xing from afar and suddenly said in a low voice.
Fang Xing was startled. He did not expect Xiao Jianming to say such a thing. But then he smiled and said, "No need to let me have it. You go first!"
Xiao Jianming's words originally contained the intention of reconciling, but when he saw Fang Xing reply like this, obviously not taking his words to heart in the slightest, Xiao Jianming's heart couldn't help but go cold, and he said indifferently, "I'll warn you about something. I've cultivated for 12 years, and even though I'm useless, I've allowed everyone that knows me to understand a principle, and that's that being my friend is far stronger than being my opponent!"
Fang Xing heard the threat in his words. He also smiled and said, "I have also cultivated for four years …"
Xiao Jianming looked at him indifferently. Fang Xing also wanted to say something more impressive. But the little bandit's level of education was not as high as the others. After pondering for a while, he could only say, "… I have never been afraid of anything!"
Xiao Jianming smiled coldly and did not say anything else. He pointed downwards and the iron eagle swooped down.
When had he, Xiao Jianming, ever been so tolerant towards others?
Since this brat had overestimated himself and was determined to go against him, then he would just have to find an opportunity to kill him!
"Whoosh …"
Grasshopper dragged its injured body and launched a violent attack at Pi Junzi and the others. Under the tremendous force, Pi Junzi and the others could not hold on any longer. Xiao Jianming had already rushed down. With a long whistle, the iron sword in his hand suddenly split into countless rays of sword light. Like a rain of light, they enveloped Grasshopper in an instant. As if they had a life of their own, they slashed towards the dislocated joints and wounds on Grasshopper's body.
Grasshopper howled in pain. It knew how powerful the attack was and did not dare to fight against Xiao Jianming. It turned around and fled.
Meanwhile, Fang Xing watched Xiao Jianming's attack from midair. His gaze was also somewhat cold.
"I say, why do you have to make life difficult for this person? This brat is very powerful …"
The Golden Crow secretly transmitted its voice to Fang Xing. It did not understand why Fang Xing had to go against such a powerful person.
Fang Xing chuckled and said, "It's his fault for looking so annoying!"
The Golden Crow muttered, "As if you were very likable …"
With a swoosh, Fang Xing placed his saber on the Golden Crow's neck. "Am I not likable?"
The Golden Crow hurriedly said in embarrassment, "Too likable. Everyone loves me when they see me. Flowers bloom when they see me …"
"You have good taste …" Fang Xing praised the Golden Crow's taste.
But while he was laughing, he was also calculating in his heart, 'This guy's Azure Cloud Nine Swords Technique is indeed powerful. The Azure Cloud Nine Swords Technique that Senior Sister Lingyun used back then was already very powerful. Xiao Jianming's mastery of the sword technique is far above hers. It looks like even if I increase my cultivation by another two stages, I still have no chance of winning against him. I still have to think of some other way …'
"Squeak squeak …"
Grasshopper was entangled by Xiao Jianming's iron sword and could not escape. Its body had suffered several more serious injuries and it immediately began to squeak in panic.
However, Xiao Jianming did not make a killing move. He had been distracted by Fang Xing, who was in the air.
As expected, after Grasshopper was forced into a corner, the brat sitting on the Golden Crow's back suddenly raised his bow and arrow. Xiao Jianming was startled and immediately stopped his attack to guard against Fang Xing. However, he did not expect that Fang Xing only raised the bow and arrow to aim at it and then put it down again. Xiao Jianming was instantly infuriated. He knew that he could not wait any longer and had to make a killing move as soon as possible.
"Azure Cloud Sword Pierces the Nine Heavens …"
Xiao Jianming suddenly let out a long cry. The sword light of the iron sword in his hand suddenly cut through the sky like lightning, striking down from the sky.
