The three of them walked along the winding mountain path for two and a half days before finally reaching the end. When they reached the top of the mountain, their eyes lit up. They released their spiritual sense and discovered that there was a radius of three hundred kilometers around the top of the mountain. There were pavilions and courtyards arranged in layers. If they weren't in the Sacred Devil Crown Prince's secret treasure, they would've thought they were in a small cultivation town in the Spirit Realm.
In front of him was a wide continent that led directly to the main entrance. A purple light flashed in Yi Tian's eyes as he used the Heavenly Demon Pupil to check it out. The main entrance was about thirty feet tall, and on the lintel of the door, there were three large words, 'Jade Flower Pavilion'.
They had finally arrived. Yi Tian's expression relaxed and he discovered that the two behind him also had relaxed expressions. Back then, the Sacred Devil Crown Prince Qiu Yu had buried half of his Buddha's Heart here. It seemed that he had chosen an excellent location.
Just as the three of them were about to walk forward, Yi Tian's brows suddenly furrowed as he sensed something strange with his spiritual sense. He turned his head and examined the empty space in front of the main gate. After using his Heavenly Devil Eye Technique, he discovered that there were two figures hiding there.
Yi Tian's expression immediately turned hostile as he shouted, "Since Fellow Daoist Scarlet Eyed Demon is here, why are you hiding? Not to mention, you don't seem to be alone. I really don't know when you found a helper."
Dugu Chenglong and Song Li's expressions changed slightly when they heard this. They both used their spiritual sense to investigate, but they didn't find anything amiss. It was just that they would rather believe it than not. They stood not far away from Yi Tian and secretly raised their spirit tools to be on guard.
Since Yi Tian said that Scarlet Eyed Demon had brought a helper with him, he definitely wasn't weak. In today's situation, the other party definitely didn't have good intentions. Furthermore, the three of them had just walked up the mountain, so there was no reason for them to turn back.
Soon, a burst of sinister laughter sounded. Not far away, the silhouettes of two figures materialized and revealed their true appearances. When Yi Tian and the others saw this, they were shocked. That laughter actually came from the mouth of a stone statue.
"What did I say? There is indeed someone powerful among the three of them. He was able to see through our disguise with a single glance. Scarlet-Eyed Demon, you have a worthy opponent now."
"You're right, Great Elder. I was careless this time. I didn't expect him to have cultivated the Heavenly Demon Eye to the Great Perfection Stage," Scarlet-Eyed Demon replied respectfully.
Hearing this, Yi Tian and the others' expressions changed slightly. Since Crimson Pupil Demon called the stone statue 'Great Elder', it meant that the statue's history was far beyond their imagination. It might even be a figure from ten thousand years ago.
Dugu Chenglong had a bitter look on his face as he walked up and clasped his hands, "May I know who senior is? I am Dugu Chenglong, the vanguard of the Demon Saint."
"Don't try to scare me with the title of Demon Saint Tyrant. Other than His Highness Crown Prince Qiu Yu, no one in this world can make me revere him. This old man is Dark Eye of the One-eyed Demon Race." The stone statue interrupted Dugu Chenglong's words.
It really was a figure from ten thousand years ago. Yi Tian was startled. He looked around and exchanged glances with the other two. At this moment, Dugu Chenglong and Song Li both had looks of disbelief and shock in their eyes. However, the other party still hadn't made his intentions clear. They could only raise their guard and wait for the situation to develop.
Yi Tian asked, "Looks like you came prepared, Scarlet-Eyed Demon. You purposely waited for us to walk out of this mountain path. I didn't expect you to be so much faster than I expected. "
"Brat, do you really think I'm stupid enough to climb a mountain like you?" The Scarlet-Eyed Demon said with disdain, "Crown Prince Qiu Yu discovered the problem with this mountain long ago, so he set up a teleportation formation early on. I only benefited from it."
Yi Tian appraised the stone statue and said, "Even if you're possessed by the soul of your One-eyed Demon Race senior, do you really think you can defeat us?"
"Although you're not weak, we've never fought each other before. It's hard to say who's stronger and who's weaker," Scarlet Pupil Demon said solemnly, "However, I have no interest in the position of Demon Saint's Crown Prince. Demon Saint Bao Chi is just using me as a chess piece."
"Since that's the case, I feel the same way as you. Why are we still so hostile towards each other?" Yi Tian probed.
"Because you're the next Crown Prince appointed by Demon Saint Bao Chi, so I naturally want to see the strength of the third Grand Ascension Stage cultivator of the Demon Realm." The Scarlet-Eyed Demon shouted, "In the end, I also want to advance to the Grand Ascension Stage, but now that you've become a stumbling block on my path, I naturally have to get rid of you."
During the conversation with the Scarlet-Eyed Demon, Yi Tian deliberately paid attention to the two people standing beside him. When Song Li heard that he was the next Crown Prince appointed by Demon Saint Bao Chi, he clearly paused and moved a few steps away to maintain his distance. Dugu Chenglong, on the other hand, remained unmoved. He clearly knew more. Yi Tian now understood why Dugu Chenglong had a look of awe in his eyes when he was talking to him on the mountain path.
If that was the case, then this trip to the Immortal Flower Pavilion was really interesting. Demon Saint Bao Chi would never have dreamed that his plan would be ruined by the Scarlet-Eyed Demon. He even brought along the Great Elder of the One-eyed Demon Group from ten thousand years ago. After Yi Tian glanced at him, he was surprised to find that the spiritual pressure fluctuations on his body were not weaker than his own. Although his body was destroyed, his soul was stored in this statue, so he might be able to use more powerful secret techniques.
Thinking carefully about the Scarlet-Eyed Demon's words, if he had always been schemed against by Demon Saint Bao Chi, then the abnormality in his body pointed out by the Beast Lord in the Allheaven Immortal Palace was a secret method to restrain him.
Fortunately, that thing had been cleared away by him. Now the two of them really thought that he had fallen into Demon Saint Bao Chi's trap. It would be interesting to see if they fought later.
After calming down, Yi Tian simply did not play by the rules. According to his previous assumption, Demon Saint Bao Chi would definitely think that he had fought with the Scarlet-Eyed Demon in his demonic body and then used the wisp of demonic flame to completely enter his demonic body. But he just had to do the opposite. After thinking about it, the demonic origin power around him quickly withdrew. Then, the demonic spirit energy in his body was converted, and a red light appeared around his body.
In an instant, Yi Tian revealed his true body's appearance in front of the four people. He raised his head and laughed, "Daoist Dugu, you're right. This Scarlet-Eyed Demon is indeed an anomaly of the demon race. This time, according to our previous agreement, you, I, and Daoist Song will work together to eliminate him. After that, we'll find Demon Saint Crown Prince Qiu Yu's secret stash and divide it equally. Daoist Song, come with us. As long as we can solve the problem in front of us, I'll also find a way to solve your predicament. "
