As he flew through the Hundred Flower Stream, he realized that aside from Yi Tian, everyone else had already left the Beast King's Cave. The Ancient Locust Tree Men's request had also surprised him. They didn't want anything else but the Asura Blood Vines to be transplanted into the Hundred Flowers Stream.
To him, this was as easy as lifting a finger. Then, he chanted a mantra to control the Ghost Faced Flowers from the ancient pagoda tree and planted them in the soil.
After dealing with these matters, Yi Tian bid farewell to the treants and quietly left. After flying in the air for a while, he discovered that there were a few mountains with dense spiritual power. There were no treants or monsters taking root in the surroundings. He took out the Great Abyss Sword and dug a hole in the middle of the mountain. Then, he laid down a defensive formation before descending into the hole.
Guo Rui was right. He had already missed the Three Months Shine Together. It wouldn't be wise for him to go out and find an exit. It would be better for him to cultivate in the depths of the blessed land for a while. It wouldn't be too late to think of a way to escape after he sorted out his gains from this battle.
After taking out the jade bottle that Guo Rui was imprisoned in, Yi Tian examined it. With a thought, he removed the sealing talisman. Then, he took out a rune brush and ink and quickly added a few strokes on the jade bottle to lay down a rune spirit array. This would isolate Guo Rui's aura. Even if someone used divination techniques, they wouldn't be able to predict Guo Rui's location.
After finishing his preparations, Yi Tian sent a strand of his divine sense in to investigate. Then, he took out the demon spirit and used a rune pen to draw layers of restrictions on Guo Rui's body. After finishing the last stroke, Yi Tian shouted, "Guo Rui, when are you going to wake up?"
The young demon spirit took a while to respond. When Guo Rui opened his eyes and looked around, his face instantly turned pale. He looked at Yi Tian and sighed. "Fellow Daoist really kept his word and didn't refine my soul."
"Wo Ye disdains to use such a despicable trick," Yi Tian replied indifferently. "But don't be too happy. I've placed a Soul Restriction on you. You'll answer whatever I ask. That'll be more straightforward."
"It seems like Fellow Daoist is also quite interested in the matters of the Demon Realm." Guo Rui regained his senses and said, "It's just that I didn't expect you to be someone from the Lifire Palace, and your strength isn't any weaker than the two Lifire Elders, Ceng Shun."
"You seem to be talking too much. Many things are better if you keep them to yourself," Yi Tian replied in a low voice.
"If this is a normal situation, I'd rather keep my words to myself. At the very least, I wouldn't be dragged into the disputes of the Lifire Palace." Guo Rui seemed to have thought of something as he spoke.
"Oh, it seems that you have stayed in the Spirit Realm for a long time. You seem to know a little about what happened in the Spirit Realm." Yi Tian probed.
"Fellow Daoist doesn't need to probe like this. Back then, after my branch was expelled from the sect, we had no place to stay. Fortunately, there was a turmoil in the Spirit Realm. I also assisted the three sects in the war against the devil, so an exception was made and I was accepted into the Spirit Realm to recuperate," Guo Rui said with a face full of pride.
"So you are also a meritorious person in the war against the devil. Could it be that you want to use this to persuade me to let you go?" Yi Tian coldly snorted.
"Of course not." Guo Rui retracted the arrogance on his face and said, "Back then, the situation of that supreme expert from the Lifire Palace was still vivid in my mind. His subordinates, Ji Xuanyuan and the two elders of the Lifire Palace also participated in the war. It's just that their cultivation bases were similar to the current you. In fact, the two elders of the Lifire Palace were much weaker, only at the mid-stage of the FenShen Stage."
"I have heard some of the secrets of this matter. Tell me what I don't know. Otherwise, if I don't see your value, I might not know what to do with you." Yi Tian said in a threatening tone.
Guo Rui lowered his head and thought for a moment before saying, "If I tell you everything I know, to what extent can you do?"
"Don't think about finding a Qilin Race cultivator for you to possess. I won't be stupid enough to leave such a problem behind. However, I can still discuss sending you into the cycle of reincarnation. Also, I have been to the Buddha Spirit Realm before and know a thing or two about the dao of reincarnation. At most, I will find someone to chant scriptures for you so that you can enter the human dao in your next life." Yi Tian stated his bargaining chip. On the other hand, Guo Rui seemed to be in deep thought. He seemed to be a little tempted by his proposal.
After thinking for a while, he replied, "Okay, it's a deal. You make a heart demon oath and send me into the cycle of reincarnation in the future. Then, I will tell you everything I know without holding anything back."
"How about this? Let's both make a heart demon oath and use the agreement we have reached as a condition. I won't take advantage of you. Before I send you away, I will teach you the Buddhist Zen Technique. This way, after you reincarnate, you can preserve your spirit root to the greatest extent. "Yi Tian said.
"It's a deal." Guo Rui said with joy.
Then, the two of them made an oath respectively. After they finished, Guo Rui explained the situation one by one. He talked about the situation for about half a day. During this time, Yi Tian interrupted his narration from time to time and asked questions. Guo Rui patiently answered in detail.
Yi Tian took out a jade slip and recorded the main points of what Guo Rui said. After he finished, he did not treat Guo Rui unfairly. He took out a copy of the Prajna Ascetic Meditation and poured all the cultivation methods in it into Guo Rui's mind. After doing this, he let Guo Rui return to the jade bottle first. After pasting a talisman on it and putting it away, Yi Tian sat cross-legged in the cave house and began to slowly recall these things.
It was a little close to what he expected. This Emperor Yuanhao was originally the incarnation of a five-clawed golden dragon. It was just that he did something that angered the public. He wanted to use cross-species research to maintain the strength of the Demon Realm. Such actions were naturally despised by most of the people of the Demon Realm. The Demon God was originally the Empress of Emperor Yuanhao and the ancestor of the Fire Phoenix Clan.
Now, the Fire Phoenix and Fire Dragon Clans could divide more than 70% of the resources and territories of the Demon Realm because of the legacy of the previous dynasty.
As for the senior Red Beard Spirit Ape, he was the disciple of the Fire Phoenix Empress. The Spirit Ape of the Four Great Protectors was Red Beard's father. Back then, after assisting the Fire Phoenix Empress to suppress Emperor Yuanhao, he ended up dying. It was because of this relationship that when the Demon God left, Red Beard established the Nine Immortal Mountain to oversee the Demon Realm.
As for the Nine Immortal Mountain, although it was the orthodoxy of the Demon God, it was deeply influenced by the Allheaven Immortal Palace of the Spirit World. When Emperor Yuanhao was overthrown, the Spirit World also sent many experts to help, so the chaos was suppressed.
However, the result was that the Allheaven Immortal Palace's strength was greatly reduced. The original situation of unifying the Spirit World could not be maintained. In addition, after the invasion of the Nether Realm, one of the Three Lower Realms, it finally fell apart. Guo Rui did not know much about the invasion of the Nether Realm. He only briefly mentioned that it seemed to be looking for something in the Spirit World... It was not a formal invasion to plunder resources.
