While Lu Xiaotian was adjusting his breath, the Phantom Scorpion King sensibly patrolled the surroundings, taking up the task of being on guard. In fact, the Phantom Scorpion King also felt that being around Lu Xiaotian was too oppressive. Little did he know that Lu Xiaotian's eyes flickered as he watched the Phantom Scorpion King leave.
It wasn't that Lu Xiaotian hadn't thought of taking the opportunity to deal with the Phantom Scorpion King. After all, he had seen him use the Demon Subduing Pagoda. For Lu Xiaotian, a dead person's secrecy was naturally better. As for Ban Qianren, his life was in his hands, so he naturally didn't have to worry about this.
However, this thought only flashed in his mind before Lu Xiaotian dismissed it. The Phantom Scorpion King wasn't the only one who knew that he cultivated the core cultivation method of the Buddhist Sect. The Demon Monarch was also one of them. With his current strength, it would be difficult for him to defeat the Demon Monarch. If he really killed the Phantom Scorpion King, the Demon Monarch would only need to say a few words to reveal it to the public.
After entering the Nether Demon Corpse Burial Ground, if the Crimson Green Ape King were to cause trouble, the Phantom Scorpion King would be a powerful teammate.
After dismissing this idea, Lu Xiaotian calmed down and adjusted his breath. The battle with the four-winged mantis had consumed a lot of his energy, especially when he used the Demon Subduing Pagoda to block the Wind Shadow Demon Light. In this battle, Lu Xiaotian had also paid a heavy price, using the Mountain Shaking Formation of the Eight-Headed Astral Source to kill the mantis. And the Nine Merged Soul Beast that Lu Xiaotian had spent a lot of energy refining was also defeated by the four-winged mantis. Lu Xiaotian's Five Elements Magnetic Golden Armor that he had cultivated for many years also suffered some damage. If he hadn't used the power of the sub-formation in time, Lu Xiaotian would have had to pay a heavier price.
In this stormy sea of demonic beasts, Lu Xiaotian continued to adjust his breathing. After all, his magic power and astral blood force had almost recovered, and the Five Elements Golden Metamagnet Armor still needed some time to recover. Thus, Lu Xiaotian, the Phantom Demon Scorpion, Ban Qianren, and the others headed towards the Nether Devil Corpse Burial Ground.
The Nether Demon Corpse Burial Ground was located at the intersection of the Ghost Race and the Devil Race. It was slightly further away from the Monster Race. Entering this place, the ferocious Devil Qi and the gloomy Ghost Qi intertwined, making Lu Xiaotian, a human outsider, rather uncomfortable. As for the Phantom Demon Scorpion and Ban Qianren, their situation was even worse than his.
In the continuous mountain range, countless Ghost Face Willows swayed in the wind. The leaves of the Ghost Face Willows were wide and thin, with a green luster flashing on them. Occasionally, the faces of people or ghosts with disheveled hair would appear. The leaves would emit sounds like moaning, mournful screams, and so on, drifting along with the mountain wind. It was eerie and terrifying.
Bang … In a distant valley, a Corpse Qi exploded like thunder. Amidst the deathly gray Corpse Qi, a large number of Corpse Monsters with rotten flesh rushed out. The Corpse Birds flapped their wings in the air and let out strange cries. Their speed was different.
"If it wasn't for the Devil Lord's order, I wouldn't have entered this damned place." The Phantom Demon Scorpion King said in a low voice. Ever since Lu Xiaotian killed the Four-winged Mantis, the Phantom Demon Scorpion King was much more low-key in front of Lu Xiaotian. He no longer referred to himself as this king.
"Fellow Daoist Shadow Scorpion, is this also your first time in the Nether Demon Corpse Burial Ground?" Lu Xiaotian asked.
"This is the third time. The first time I came here, I was only at the Divine Illusionary Realm. I almost died here. Later on, I was ordered by the Devil Lord to come here again. That was already thousands of years ago." The Phantom Demon Scorpion King recalled.
"It seems like Fellow Daoist Shadow Scorpion is an old subordinate of the Devil Lord. No wonder the Devil Lord trusts Fellow Daoist Shadow Scorpion so much. " When Lu Xiaotian heard this, he smiled and asked for the approximate time. At the same time, he was secretly shocked. It hadn't been more than three thousand years since he helped Pill King Li remove the Golden Hoop Secret Curse on the Demon Infant.
In other words, the person Lu Xiaotian saved should be someone else, and not the Devil Lord. However, the Devil Lord was aware of what happened back then. Lu Xiaotian's eyes flickered. It seemed that the Demon Infant he saved back then was indeed someone else. Moreover, it was related to the Devil Lord. Perhaps the item the Devil Lord wanted this time was related to the Demon Infant.
"I still can't compare to Lu Daoyou. The Devil Lord thinks highly of Lu Daoyou. In addition, Lu Daoyou's strength is outstanding, and his divine abilities are far beyond the reach of ordinary people. Sooner or later, he will become the Devil Lord's right-hand man. "
The Phantom Scorpion King said humbly. In his heart, he was thinking that Lu Xiaotian didn't have long to live. He dared to disobey the Devil Lord's orders. Now that the Devil Lord still needed Lu Xiaotian, he entrusted him with certain tasks. However, such a proud person would sooner or later end up being cooked after the rabbit had outlived its usefulness. Previously, when he killed the four-winged mantis, the Devil Lord's mere shadow couldn't do anything to Lu Xiaotian. However, if the Devil Lord's true body was here, killing Lu Xiaotian would be as easy as killing an ant.
"I hope so." Lu Xiaotian shook his head. How could he not know what the Phantom Scorpion King was thinking? However, after this trip to the Nether Demon Corpse Burial Ground, Lu Xiaotian didn't plan to return to the Devil Lord's command. The Devil Lord underestimated the strength of his Primordial Spirit. Moreover, with the Lotus Avatar, Lu Xiaotian wasn't completely helpless. At worst, he could use the Lotus Avatar to take on the Bone-adhering Demonic Smoke.
His left and right Lotus Avatars had been hunted down by Chihiro Yeh for a long time, so it didn't matter if there was another Devil Lord. Moreover, the Devil Lord seemed to be planning something big, so the chances of his true body coming to kill him weren't high. As for sending his subordinates, Lu Xiaotian was no longer an ordinary Unity Stage cultivator. As his strength increased, he only sent some late Unity Stage powerhouses, which could no longer pose a threat to him.
Of course, it would be better if he could break through to the late Unity Stage in advance. At that time, he would have more or less confidence in dispelling the Bone-adhering Demonic Smoke in his body.
As for the Devil Lord knowing that he cultivated the Buddhist Sect's Cultivation Method, Lu Xiaotian didn't have a good way to deal with it. He could only wait for things to develop.
He sighed inwardly. Lu Xiaotian, the Phantom Scorpion Five, and Ban Qianren continued to go deeper into the Nether Demon Corpse Burial Ground. Along the way, Lu Xiaotian didn't have to deal with the ordinary demons and ghosts. For the time being, they hadn't encountered anything that could match Ban Qianren and the Phantom Scorpion King. After all, there were only a few Unity Stage powerhouses, and there were even fewer who could reach the strength of two of them.
There were all kinds of monsters and ghosts. Few of them could last more than three to five rounds under Ban Qianren's Bluesea Demon Sand. The low-level ghosts were pierced by the Bluesea Demon Sand before they could react, turning into a pile of useless powder.
As the number of times Ban Qianren used the Blue Demonic Sand Bottle increased, he became more and more proficient in using it. Naturally, the power it displayed was also increasing.
Even the Phantom Scorpion King was secretly shocked by Ban Qianren's methods. The Phantom Scorpion King was very clear about Ban Qianren's strength. If he had such strength back then, how could he sit back and watch his granddaughter die in the hands of his subordinates?
The Phantom Scorpion King secretly glanced at Lu Xiaotian. Ban Qianren's transformation was most likely related to this mysterious human cultivator. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been reborn in such a short time.
