The angry man told Gu Zheng all the useful information from the Bloodthirsty Butcher's memory.
After knowing that Sora Aoi and the others were fine, Gu Zheng was relieved.
Originally, by relying on the angry man's Divine Sense, Gu Zheng could have reached Sora Aoi and the others earlier. Unfortunately, when he entered the trench, he encountered two powerful sea monsters, so he was delayed.
Now was not the time to count his gains. Gu Zheng hurriedly cleaned up the battlefield and rushed to where Sora Aoi and the others were.
When Gu Zheng found Sora Aoi and the others, they had just come out of the cave and were preparing to find the missing Blood Soul.
Seeing that Gu Zheng was fine, except for Xiahou Shan, everyone was very happy.
"Did you find anything?"
After talking about some of their experiences, Gu Zheng looked at the cave and asked Sora Aoi.
"I didn't find anything. This is a natural cave. It might just be a place that Blood Soul used to scheme against Corpse Devil Ancestor."
After listening to Sora Aoi, Gu Zheng frowned and shook his head. "It shouldn't be that simple."
"According to what you said, Yu Yangzi had the strange fish follow Blood Soul from the beginning, and when Blood Soul met up with Corpse Devil Ancestor, you didn't stop monitoring him. Since you didn't stop monitoring him, then this is not a natural cave. Otherwise, how do you explain the restriction at the entrance of the cave? "
Gu Zheng's analysis was correct. Although Sora Aoi and the others didn't say anything, they were all frowning and thinking. Only Xiahou Shan let out a sneer.
"So what if we can't explain it? Anyway, everyone has searched the cave, and there is nothing valuable here. Is there any meaning in harping on this problem? Because of your arrival, we have already wasted a lot of time here. Maybe because of this delay, Blood Soul has already obtained the evil source? "Xiahou Shan sneered.
"Because of my delay, the Blood Soul Sect managed to get the evil source. What a big hat!"
Gu Zheng sneered and looked at Xiahou Shan seriously. "Don't speak to me with thorns, or I will teach you a lesson!"
"You …"
"Enough!"
Xiahou Shan wanted to say something, but he was interrupted by Yu Yangzi. "Xiahou Shan, what time is it now? You still have the mood to look for trouble here? Don't you feel ashamed? "
"I …"
"Enough!"
Xiahou Shan wanted to say something, but he was interrupted by Xuan Qizi. "If you are still a member of the righteous alliance, don't make trouble out of nothing. Let's listen to what Sect Leader Gu has to say!"
After being interrupted twice in a row, Xiahou Shan was angry. However, he no longer had the mood to create some unhappiness for Gu Zheng. The current situation was really not suitable for internal strife.
"Speak! Let everyone hear what you have to say! "Xiahou Shan shrugged.
"Since the restriction that could trap the Corpse Devil Ancestor and the others was not set up by the Blood Soul Sect in advance, such a powerful restriction would not appear in a natural cave for no reason! Just because we didn't find anything doesn't mean that there's nothing here. I think it's better to investigate. "
Gu Zheng's words were equivalent to questioning everyone's previous exploration. If it was someone else who said such words, these big shots of the righteous path would probably be unhappy. However, the person who said this was Gu Zheng after all. They did not think much of it. Instead, they hoped that things would be as Gu Zheng said, that there would be some major discovery here.
"Sect Leader Gu, quickly investigate!"
Yu Yangzi was a little excited. He remembered Gu Zheng's understanding of the mysterious immortal formation on Black Dragon Island.
Gu Zheng nodded and then stepped into the cave. The Weapon Spirit immediately began to investigate the cave.
The cave was not too big. It was only about twenty meters deep, five meters wide, and seven meters tall. The Weapon Spirit quickly finished investigating.
"This place is indeed different. However, I only know that it is different."
The Weapon Spirit's serious voice paused for a moment before continuing, "This feeling is like seeing something that you don't recognize. You know it's not ordinary, but you don't know what it is. If I'm guessing, I think this might be a passage. There is resistance hindering my exploration, but I can't find where its' door 'is. "
"A door?"
Gu Zheng reached out to touch the stone wall at the end of the passage and muttered to himself.
Gu Zheng understood what the Weapon Spirit was trying to say. The so-called 'door' was very likely on this stone wall. However, it was not a traditional restriction, seal, or immortal technique. This kind of sealing method was beyond the Weapon Spirit's knowledge, so the Weapon Spirit could not do anything about it.
"Angry man!"
"Master!"
Gu Zheng and the Angry man called out to each other at the same time.
The Angry man, who had nineteen inner cores, also had many mysterious abilities. Moreover, because his inner cores came from the giant clam, many of his divine abilities were like evil techniques. This was the Blood Tide Forbidden Area. It was a place of evil that was naturally born between heaven and earth. Did the Angry man have any different opinions about this? Gu Zheng called out to him because he wanted him to come and take a look.
As for the angry man, without Gu Zheng's order, he would not follow on his own. However, there seemed to be something in the cave that was attracting one of his Neidans. This made him want to tell Gu Zheng that he wanted to enter the cave to take a look.
The Angry man entered the cave and went straight to the stone wall at the bottom of the cave.
The attraction became stronger and stronger. The Angry man opened his mouth and spat out a gray inner core.
"What are you doing?"
Gu Zheng was somewhat traumatized by the Angry man's strange inner core, especially in a place of evil that was naturally born between heaven and earth.
"Master, don't worry. I feel that there is a special aura here. I just want to suck it out. I won't suck it into the inner core."
The Angry man hurriedly explained. He was also traumatized by the inner core in his body.
"Are you sure you just want to suck it out and won't suck it into the inner core?" Gu Zheng's expression was serious.
"Master, I'm sure!"
Hearing the Angry man's serious answer, Gu Zheng nodded, indicating that he could begin.
The Angry man frowned. His inner core immediately flickered with light.
A strange scene appeared. The walls of the cave also began to flicker with light. After a moment, a gray fog rushed out from the walls of the cave. The Angry man hurriedly took back his inner core and spat out a mouthful of demonic aura, enveloping the gray fog.
After getting rid of the demonic aura, the Angry man could not help but let out a sigh of relief.
"How was it?" Gu Zheng asked.
"It was very scary. It wanted to drill into my inner core. Fortunately, I was prepared." The Angry man said with lingering fear.
"You have to be more careful in the following journey. Especially when there are abnormal movements in your inner core." Gu Zheng said seriously.
"Master, I understand." The Angry man said nervously.
Seeing that the Angry man was obedient, Gu Zheng's expression softened. "The inner core of the Giant Clam belongs to you now. However, it is evil in nature. You still need to spend a lot of time to truly refine and fuse with it. When it completely becomes your inner core, there should be no such drawbacks."
Feeling the Angry man's fear, Gu Zheng comforted him.
"Master, I understand."
After the Angry man nodded, Gu Zheng looked at the walls of the cave.
Without the gray fog, an immortal formation appeared on the walls of the cave. The Artifact Spirit immediately told Gu Zheng how to break the immortal formation.
At the same time.
The Blood Soul brought Old Demon Bloodthirsty and the Smiling Evil Monk closer to the source of the evil.
The Evil Source was located in the depths of the cliffs of the trench, and there were two paths leading to it. The first path was used by the Blood Soul to plot against Corpse Devil Ancestor and the second path was the one he was taking now.
If the Corpse Demon Ancestor hadn't been trapped on the first path, the Blood Soul would have been more willing to take the first path to approach the source of the evil. After all, it was the safest path. The path he was taking, apart from taking a longer detour, wasn't safe either. There were many evil creatures in the core area causing trouble. Along the way, he had already killed many of them with Old Demon Bloodthirsty and the Smiling Evil Monk.
"Hm?"
The Blood Soul suddenly frowned and stopped. He stared blankly at the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch in his hand.
"Master, what's wrong?" Old Demon Bloodthirsty asked.
"That safe path has been opened by someone!" The Blood Soul frowned.
The restrictions in the path were all set up by Boundless Sea through the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch. As soon as the restrictions were broken, the Blood Soul immediately sensed it. This was also why he was able to break the restrictions from afar when he was scheming against the Corpse Demon Ancestor.
"Who could it be? Master, quickly use the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch to take a look. "The Smiling Evil Monk said.
"It's useless. After all, the spell I left behind can only let us see the situation near the entrance. Since the path has been opened, there shouldn't be anyone outside the cave! "
Although the Blood Soul said so, he still made the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch show a reflection at its mouth. Sure enough, there wasn't a single person outside the cave.
"Who could it be that broke the restrictions?" Old Demon Bloodthirsty muttered to himself.
"It should be someone from the righteous path alliance."
The Smiling Evil Monk added. He wasn't saying this for no reason. After all, the last time the Blood Soul saw the reflection, it showed the scene of the Corpse Demon Ancestor being defeated by the righteous path alliance.
"Someone could actually break the restrictions. This is really beyond my expectations!"
The Blood Soul frowned and muttered. At the same time, he cursed the Corpse Demon Ancestor in his heart. If the Corpse Demon Ancestor hadn't been so suspicious and agreed to let him enter the cave, he would have already seen the source of the evil.
"It doesn't matter. Isn't it just a shortcut? Even if it's a shortcut, they still have to go through that huge maze. Let's give them a surprise on the way out of the maze! "The Blood Soul sneered.
At the same time.
The Corpse Demon Ancestor, who was running away, had already recovered from the backlash caused by the loss of a Life Refined Corpse.
"They're all dead. They're all dead!"
Although he hadn't seen the bodies of his subordinates, the Corpse Demon Ancestor had a secret method to know that Mo Xin and the others were all dead.
Half a day ago, the Corpse Demon Ancestor didn't have the slightest doubt about whether he could obtain the source of the evil and become a hegemon. However, in just half a day, he had already been hit so hard that he started to doubt his life.
"Blood Soul, it's all because of you son of a b * tch. If I don't take revenge, I swear I'm not a human!"
The Corpse Demon Ancestor gnashed his teeth and took out a strand of hair that he had collected when the Blood Soul wasn't paying attention.
"Yin Yang Five Elements, Demonic Art Tracking!"
The Corpse Demon Ancestor's fingers changed a few times before he pointed at the hair.
The strand of hair instantly turned into ashes as if it was on fire. The Corpse Demon Ancestor immediately sensed the Blood Soul's location very clearly.
"Blood Soul, I'm coming!"
The Corpse Demon Ancestor increased his flying speed.
There was a light flickering in the long passage. The thin strands of evil Qi in the water were so dense that they were visible to the naked eye. They looked like countless dust particles floating in the air.
"Master, there's a flickering light in front of us. Is that where the evil source is? I can already feel a terrifying evil Qi! "The Bloodthirsty Old Demon said excitedly.
"That's right. That's the stone room where the evil source is being nurtured."
The Blood Soul's excited voice paused. He then turned around and looked at the Bloodthirsty Old Demon and the Smiling Evil Monk: "You've followed me all the way here. Now, I'm going to enter the stone room to refine the evil source. Guard this place well and don't let anyone disturb me. When I return to my original form, I'll be the ruler of the world. At that time, you'll get whatever you want! "
"Thank you, Master!"
Hearing the Blood Soul's promise again, the Bloodthirsty Old Demon and the Smiling Evil Monk hurriedly expressed their gratitude.
Without saying anything more, the Blood Soul followed the passage and entered the stone room where the evil source was being nurtured.
The stone room was very big, like a square. The Blood Soul could see a stone platform in the center of the room. On the platform, there was a light ball the size of a crouching cow, emitting a gray light.
The Blood Soul was excited to finally see the evil source. He quickened his pace.
It felt as if he had barged into a hive. Even with the protection of the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Shell, the thin strands of evil Qi were still constantly hitting his protective barrier. This was something that had never happened before.
The strength of the thin strands of evil Qi made the Blood Soul even happier. With such a strong evil Qi, even a cultivator at the peak of the Void Return Immortal Realm would be restrained and his strength would be reduced. The Blood Soul wouldn't be afraid even if he had to face four or five cultivators at the peak of the Void Return Immortal Realm, let alone one.
He was already very close to the stone platform. The Blood Soul also saw that the bottom of the stone platform was densely packed with the bones of various strange beasts.
His body floated up, and the Blood Soul could see the evil source more clearly. He also saw that the platform where the evil source was being nurtured was densely carved with runes.
The Blood Soul frowned, and a spiraling immortal power flew out from his fingertip. He wanted to use this immortal power to extract the evil source.
The immortal power of the Blood Soul pierced the evil source, and the evil source trembled slightly. However, the expected situation of the evil Qi being extracted did not happen. After the evil source suddenly expanded, a huge red-haired head flew out from it.
Clang!
The Blood Soul unsheathed the blood-red sword that he had been carrying on his back and slashed at the red-haired head.
Bam!
With a loud sound, the Blood Soul's top-grade immortal weapon was sent flying after colliding with the red-haired head.
Swish …
The red-haired head let out a whistling sound, and a blood-red tongue was spat out, coiling around the Blood Soul's neck.
A red light flashed on the Blood Soul's hand, and he chopped at the tongue with his hand.
Bam!
Another loud sound rang out. When the originally soft tongue was struck by the Blood Soul's hand blade, the huge force that was transmitted from the tongue also sent the Blood Soul flying. The red light on the Blood Soul's hand touched the tongue, and it burned in the sea like a fire! However, the red-haired head's tongue only shook, and the originally very powerful flame was immediately extinguished.
The Blood Soul frowned. The red-haired head's strength was far beyond his imagination. When it flew over again, a strong pressure suddenly appeared in the sea, causing the Blood Soul's speed to become a little slower. Moreover, the thin strands of evil Qi in the sea seemed to have awakened their bloodline. At the same time, they became more powerful, and shot towards the Blood Soul like arrows.
The Blood Soul was not afraid of the mutation of the evil Qi. After all, he had the protection of the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Shell.
As expected, even though the evil Qi had become more powerful, when it came into contact with the external protection of the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Shell for the Blood Soul, it was still unbreakable. Everything had its vanquisher.
"Mad Demon Slash!"
The long sword in the Blood Soul's hand formed a sword light that did not dissipate. Then, he slashed at the red-haired head that was flying towards him.
The sword light bloomed on the red-haired head like a blood lotus. The surrounding sea water was shaken away, forming a temporary waterless space.
It had to be said that the Blood Soul's Mad Demon Slash was very powerful. If a cultivator at the peak of the Return to Void Stage was hit by the Mad Demon Slash, there was absolutely no chance of survival.
However, such a tyrannical 'Berserk Demon Slash' was only able to cause a few wounds on the red-haired man's head.
"Roar!"
The red-haired head roared angrily. As it roared, the wounds on its scalp that the Blood Soul had painstakingly inflicted with the attack instantly healed. Then, it charged towards the Blood Soul like a meteor, and the pressure it exerted on the Blood Soul also increased.
"Scram!"
The Blood Soul's heart trembled. He did not dare to be careless and hurriedly used the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Shell's divine power.
The Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Shell shot out a ray of blue light and directly hit the red-haired head.
"Roar!"
The red-haired man's head flew back, and even the tone of his voice had changed. His pair of somewhat muddled eyes actually revealed a trace of fear.
"Back then, Boundless Sea used the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Shell to dismember you before you reached the Great Accomplishment stage. Although many years have passed, you only have your head left. You're much weaker than when he dismembered you. Someone like you dares to fight against me, who has the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch? You're overestimating yourself! "
The Blood Soul's mocking voice paused. Then, he continued, "I see that you seem to have gained a bit of intelligence. If you know what's good for you, you'd better leave now. Otherwise, I'll turn you into ashes!"
The Blood Soul would not be so kind. He was confident that he could use the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Shell to kill the red-haired head. However, this confidence was only a little, not a hundred percent!
Moreover, even if he really did kill the red-haired head, it would only delay time. If the people of the righteous path alliance came, the Blood Soul did not think that Old Demon Bloodthirsty and the Smiling Evil Monk would be able to stop them outside the stone room.
Moreover, the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Shell's divine power that could be used to deal with the red-haired head couldn't be used easily. Even for someone as powerful as him, if he used those divine powers, he would inevitably suffer some backlash.
