After clearing the obstacles in front of them, Yi Tian and Yi Shun walked down the path behind the snake nest. Along the way, they could feel that the entire path was trembling slightly from the huge magic attacks.
Along the way, green venom dripped down from the cracks in the eaves of the corridor from time to time, splashing on the ground and making hissing sounds. The two of them opened their protective shields and flew forward together. After walking for less than three miles along the corridor, they found that the path in front of them was pouring down in torrents. As they walked forward, they saw a large amount of green venom blocking the corridor in front of them.
If they wanted to go forward, they would have to pass through the area of venom in front of them, and their divine sense couldn't break through the obstacles in front of them. Seeing this, Yi Shun spat out Scorching Dragon Karmic Fire again. The fireball in front of him grew bigger and bigger until it was three feet in size before he pushed it out.
There was a loud hissing sound. When the fireball came into contact with the green venom, it directly evaporated it, and then a temporary passage opened in the pool of venom. Yi Tian and Yi Shun took advantage of this short gap to pass through.
Fortunately, this path was only about a thousand feet long, and there seemed to be a depression in the middle, so a large amount of venom had accumulated to block the passage. After the two of them passed through and came to the outside world again, they found that the exit was not far in front of them.
At this time, several waves of spiritual pressure came from the exit, as if there were people in the middle of an intense battle. The two of them looked at each other, and spiritual power surged around them. Then, they flew toward the exit.
After going out, Yi Tian's divine sense swept through and found that this was a huge underground karst cave, about three thousand feet in circumference. In this karst cave, there were dozens of statues of different sizes erected, and they all looked like human figures. In the deepest part of the cave, there was a huge statue of a coiling dragon. It looked exactly like the true body of Vast Origin Emperor in the corpse prison in the Beast King's Cave.
Seeing this, Yi Tian was stunned and immediately found that something was wrong. In front of the coiling dragon statue, Daoist Qing Xin and Yan Peigong were fighting fiercely. Both of them were attacking in their human forms, except that there were eight heads poking out from behind their necks.
Yi Tian quickly scanned Yan Peigong with his divine sense and found that two of the eight heads on Yan Peigong's back had evolved into flood dragon dragon heads. Compared to when they fought before, Yan Peigong seemed to have awakened his true dragon bloodline, and the remaining six heads were still green.
As for Daoist Qing Xin, eight colorful heads appeared behind his back, but none of them turned into flood dragon heads.
Yan Peigong and Daoist Qing Xin were slightly taken aback by the sudden appearance of the two of them. After a brief exchange of blows, the two of them stood more than thirty meters apart. After a while, Yan Peigong coldly shouted, "I didn't expect you to find help. It seems like you're just pretending to be kind."
Daoist Qing Xin turned to Yi Tian and Yi Shun and said, "I didn't expect this to happen either. However, today is a duel between Yan Peigong and I. I hope the two of you can just watch from the sidelines and not interfere."
It was obvious that they wanted to settle their personal grudges. However, Yi Shun frowned and said, "Sect Master Qing Xin, I have always admired you, but I didn't expect you to make a mistake at such a critical juncture."
"What do you mean?" Daoist Qing Xin hurriedly asked.
"He's stalling for time." Yi Shun pointed at Yan Peigong and said, "It's obvious that he's only this strong after awakening about seventy percent of my true dragon bloodline. Brother Yi, don't you think so?"
Yi Tian didn't answer directly, but glanced at the statue of Emperor Yuanhao in front of him. This statue was exactly the same as the one in the Floating Corpse Prison. The only difference was that there was no Dragon Binding Rope on it, but the Dragon Subduing Token was hung on the statue's chest.
Yan Peigong wouldn't do this for no reason. He heard from Xuan Jizi that the Dragon Subduing Token was an item used to suppress Emperor Yuanhao's soul. Last time, he and Guo Rui sneaked into the Floating Corpse Prison to steal this item.
Yi Tian's face darkened and he said, "Fellow Daoist Yi Shun is right. Sect Master Qing Xin, you mustn't disregard the safety of the entire Demon Realm because of a moment of benevolence."
"Brother Yi, what did you see? Please speak frankly." Daoist Qing Xin raised an eyebrow and asked.
"If I'm not wrong, there's a wisp of Emperor Yuanhao's soul in the Dragon Subduing Token. Back then, Yan Peigong stole this treasure from the Floating Corpse Prison to help Emperor Yuanhao resurrect," Yi Tian said coldly.
Yan Peigong's eyes flashed, then he raised his head and laughed, "Good boy, it's no wonder I was defeated by you. Unfortunately, it's too late. Emperor Yuanhao's soul fragment has already entered the host's body. It's already fully integrated and formed. "
After saying that, the coiling dragon statue began to shake violently. Large pieces of the statue's outer skin peeled off, revealing the newborn demon dragon's body. However, it was different from the golden dragon in the records. This statue had the appearance of a black dragon.
Even Daoist Qing Xin, who was far away, was stunned. His expression changed drastically after he scanned the area with his divine perception. "You've actually channeled demonic origin power into Emperor Yuanhao's body. It seems like you're quite ambitious. You want to use this to control Emperor Yuanhao."
"It's not just Devilfiend Origin Power." Yi Shun's face was filled with fear, "I also feel the Nether Origin Power from the Nether Realm."
Just as he finished speaking, the black dragon opened its eyes and swept its gaze across the four people present. Then, an extremely powerful dragon's aura spread out from its body. Even a powerful demon cultivator like Daoist Qing Xin felt a little nervous under this dragon's aura.
Meanwhile, cold sweat appeared on Yi Shun's forehead. He gritted his teeth and supported himself. He opened his mouth and forced himself to shout, "This dragon's aura has a strong oppressive effect on all demons. I wonder how you are, Brother Yi?"
"I'm a little better than you guys, but the dragon's aura is very powerful. It will affect all living beings to a certain extent." After saying that, Yi Tian muttered something. Then, circles of golden ripples spread out. Then, he felt the oppressive effect on his body easing.
"It's a Buddhist cultivation technique. I didn't expect you to be a Buddhist cultivator," Yan Peigong said in surprise.
"You borrowed the power of the Demon Realm and the Nether Realm. It just so happens that the Buddhist cultivation technique is restrained," Yi Tian said with joy.
At the same time, a soft golden light appeared around Yi Shun's body. Instantly, the oppressive effect of the dragon's aura eased a lot. Daoist Qing Xin, who was far away, instantly flew over. Under the cover of the golden light, he removed the dragon's aura from his body. After sizing him up, he said with an ashamed expression, "It's all thanks to the two of you for your help this time. After settling this matter, I will resign from the position of Nine Immortal Mountain's Sect Master as an apology."
"Let's not talk about the future. We still have to deal with the current situation." Yi Tian pointed and said in a deep voice, "Daoist Qing Xin, can you contact Fire Chain and the others? As for the people of Mount Amassing Dao, they still need some time to recover."
