After opening the gate of the mansion, a sharp gust of wind blew out, bringing with it a large amount of demonic fiendish energy. The black hurricane mixed with spiritual pressure blew past Yi Tian, and the strong gust of wind pushed him thirty feet away before he could stabilize himself.
Yi Tian glanced at Ao Li and found that he was in a much better state than Yi Tian, as he was only pushed back about one and a half feet. After a while, both of them looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
He had a further recognition of Ao Li's strength. Even with his current cultivation base, if not for the suppression of the Dragon-snaring Lasso, he would not be able to take more than three moves from him.
On the other hand, the trace of shock in Ao Li's eyes puzzled him, as he did not know what Ao Li was thinking.
After a while, the two of them adjusted themselves before slowly walking into the inner hall of the City Lord's Mansion. As soon as they entered, they heard a 'clang' sound behind them. After the gate of the City Lord's Mansion automatically closed, the array pattern of the Great Heavenly Fire Array appeared again, isolating this place from the outside world.
Yi Tian used his divine will to scan the surroundings, and found that it was not as chaotic as he imagined. Moreover, the final battle of the demonic war eight thousand years ago was not like what was described in the sect's records, where Ancestral Master Wu Ye and the Sacred Demon Crown Prince fought for several days and nights before finally suppressing him.
In fact, the environment here did not show any signs of chaos, and the furnishings in the main hall were still intact. However, the ground was covered with messy demonic marks, and judging from the direction they extended, it seemed to reach deep into the mansion's backyard.
The spiritual pressure fluctuations here gave people a strong sense of oppression. Even after eight thousand years, the spiritual pressure fluctuations were still the same. One could imagine how powerful the situation back then was. Yi Tian's heart was filled with a boundless desire for cultivation base.
Suddenly, the formation patterns on the walls flashed again, and the Great Heavenly Fire Array in the main hall began to operate again. At the same time, the remaining demonic marks on the ground were ignited and refined by the true flames from the array.
Different from the purification method of the Buddhist Sect, the Great Heavenly Fire Array directly extracted the spiritual energy from the demonic marks, and then burned the remaining demonic fiendish energy.
Walking into the depths of the mansion, he saw the demonic marks and the Great Heavenly Fire Array on the walls. From the formation patterns here, it seemed that Ancestral Master Wu Ye did not intend to directly refine the Sacred Demon Crown Prince Qiu Yu, but focused on sealing him.
He had obtained Ancestral Master Wu Ye's teachings, so he naturally knew the patterns of the formation patterns. Ao Li who was at the side looked at it for a moment before he shook his head and said: "It seems that Supreme Saint Wu Ye had brought his disciple Ji Xuanyuan here to trap my Lord here. The strength of the Spirit Array that the two of them had laid down was enough to mobilize the power of the entire Clear Breeze City's underground Spirit Vein to maintain it."
"How do you know?" Yi Tian asked in return. Although he had long sensed this, he still wanted to see Ao Li's understanding of this formation.
He pointed at the spirit patterns on the walls and said, "The formation here was personally set up by Great Sage Wu Ye more than eight thousand years ago. Logically speaking, if it is not activated, the formation patterns will not receive the protection of spiritual energy and will be eroded by the demonic marks sooner or later. And I can feel the vitality contained within the formation patterns. Although the demonic marks have absorbed quite a bit of spiritual energy, but the life force is still very strong. "
Yi Tian was overjoyed. How did he not notice this? He had thought that the source of the demonic marks in the Clearwind City was the Sacred Demon Crown Prince's body that was sealed. It seemed that the demonic marks had been continuously absorbed by the Great Heavenly Fire Array before they flooded out.
This was easy to solve. As long as the Great Heavenly Fire Array was reactivated or completely destroyed, he would be able to solve the problem of the demonic marks flooding the Old Clearwind City once and for all.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind. Since it was so simple, why did Ancestral Master Wu Ye and Ji Xuanyuan not do this back then? Turning around to look at the depths of the passageway, Yi Tian realized that the answer to this riddle should be found in the deepest part of the City Lord Manor.
He then called out to Ao Li and the two of them increased their speed as they walked through the long passageway. This passageway was only three miles long, but the demonic baleful aura in the surroundings was getting thicker and thicker, causing the two of them to have no choice but to strengthen their protective barrier before they dared to continue.
Yi Tian could indeed feel that the spiritual pressure in the surrounding air was getting stronger and stronger. In the end, the two of them spent more than two hours before they reached the last room in the City Lord Manor.
Looking at the words on the door, Yi Tian's eyes narrowed. He only saw the words "Those who enter without my sect shall die." There was no signature at the bottom, but he guessed that it should be a warning left behind by Ancestral Master Wu Ye.
He could enter, but Ao Li could not. Since only the cultivators of the Mythical Fire Palace could enter, he had to be fully prepared. After thinking about it, he turned around and said, "Ao Li, you should return to my beast pouch first. It's not easy to enter and exit this place as you wish."
"Alright. Although I can feel the remnants of my master's aura behind the door, I'll listen to you just in case." After saying that, his figure flashed and turned into a red halo as he flew into the air. After circling around, he flew into the beast pouch that Yi Tian had specially prepared for him.
After he had completely entered, Yi Tian gently used his finger to seal the beast pouch. Now, not to mention a demonic beast in the early Spirit Severing stage, even a demonic beast in the late Spirit Severing stage wouldn't be able to come out as he wished. Without his permission, he could only stay in the beast pouch for the rest of his life.
After doing all this, Yi Tian slowly walked forward. He stretched out his hand and summoned a wisp of his Natal True Fire. He raised his index finger and slowly wrote down the eight words.
As expected, it was about the same as what he had expected. After his Natal True Fire streaked across the warning words, they lit up one after another. And when he finished writing down the last word, the eight words instantly flew into the air and turned into eight trigrams that sank into the door.
After three breaths, only a "ka ka ka" sound could be heard. A spiritual pattern appeared on the door and the eight trigrams began to rotate. Shaoqing saw that after the node of the Heavenly Fire Frenzy Demon Formation was activated, the door behind him also slowly opened, revealing a gap that was about a foot wide. It was just enough for him to enter.
Seeing this, Yi Tian discovered that the spiritual pressure emanating from the door actually made his whole body feel cold. His whole body quivered, and he hurriedly circulated his energy to resist before he could stabilize his body.
After carefully examining the spiritual pressure inside, it was actually filled with the aura of death. It seemed like Ao Li was right. The Sacred Devil Crown Prince Qiu Yu should be completely dead. If he was suppressed there, such a situation wouldn't have happened.
Just as he was about to walk forward and try to enter the door, the pattern on the door suddenly changed again. This time, the door didn't close, but a void scene appeared in front of him.
This time, only Ancestral Master Wu Ye appeared. He stood at the edge of the door and raised his head to look in the direction of the main door on the stone steps. In front of him was a black figure. Its face was exactly the same as the one he saw under the Bi An tree when he was possessed.
