"Senior already knew what was happening here. Why didn't you come to stop it?" Zhao Yuande saw that the Daoist did not seem to have any ill intentions, so he did not hesitate and asked the question in his heart.
"Sigh! It's not that we don't want to stop it, but we can't! " The Daoist sighed. "The Daoist has been imprisoned in the Empty Mountain Shrine for three thousand years. His soul can only leave his body during the third watch of the night, when the Yin Qi is the strongest!"
"That's your soul!" Zhao Yuande looked at the Daoist in disbelief. He gently touched the Daoist's body and found that it was indeed not a physical body.
"How is it? Do you believe me now? "The Daoist smiled.
Zhao Yuande nodded.
"I know. I must have been asked by the disciples outside to help you! I'm afraid that many people have already died here! " Only now did Zhao Yuande truly understand why those people looked at him with anticipation in their eyes.
"Very smart! But you're too weak! "Priest Kongshan said with some regret." The chances of you being able to help me are almost zero! I think you should run away now! Maybe you'll have a chance to live! "
"Is that so?" Zhao Yuande looked at Priest Kongshan in front of him. His face revealed a look of unwillingness to admit defeat. He smiled and said, "Why don't you let me try!"
"Good! I really didn't misjudge you! " Priest Kongshan looked at Zhao Yuande and praised, "In the past, many people would want to run away after seeing such a scene. In the end, they would die in front of the white cliff every time! Only a few lucky guys were brave enough to see me. Then, only a little girl who passed my test fell into an endless hell in order to save me. And you are the second person to pass the test. I hope that you can finish walking through the forest of corpses and come to my side to help me break the seal! "
"Tell me what I should do." Zhao Yuande took a deep breath.
"Follow my directions!" Priest Kongshan's body flew up gracefully, leading the way in front.
Zhao Yuande carefully followed behind.
Their figures gradually disappeared into the dense forest at the back of the mountain.
"How many is this? You've wasted so many years of my Specter Sect. Will you really succeed? " An old woman dressed in black with a long black veil covering her entire body was standing at the place where Zhao Yuande had just appeared. She was glowing with a dim light.
Zhao Yuande followed Priest Kongshan and arrived in front of a dark cave after many twists and turns.
"Brat, I can't accompany you anymore! Remember, if you meet a little girl in the corpse forest, you must bring her out if possible! "Priest Kongshan's face revealed a trace of pity." That little girl is really good, very good! "
Zhao Yuande nodded and asked, "What is inside the cave?"
"It's said that it's connected to a fragment of the Underworld. Some say that it's the inner world of a God Emperor. Some even say that it's an immortal's cave! But I'm afraid that no one in this world knows which one it is! " Kongshan Daoist's eyes revealed a kind of fear, as if he had experienced something terrifying in there!
"What do you need me to do?" Zhao Yuande looked at the cave entrance with a serious expression. He could feel the ghostly wails and howls coming from the depths of the cave.
"You just need to find a shrine in the cave and break it. Then I'll regain my freedom! When the time comes, I'll take you away! "Kongshan Daoist looked at Zhao Yuande with uncontrollable hope in his eyes.
"Bless me!" Zhao Yuande resolutely turned around and strode into the cave.
The moment he walked into the cave, Zhao Yuande's face revealed uncontrollable anger and helplessness.
"Just you wait! I'd rather not leave this cave for the rest of my life than let you out! "Zhao Yuande replied coldly in his heart.
Actually, when Zhao Yuande had tapped Kongshan Daoist's body with his finger, he had activated the appraisal technique.
In the end, he received a shocking message.
"Gu Dang Demonic Lord, a demonic lord that invaded the East Imperial Great World in ancient times. Kongshan Daoist is suppressed in the Corpse Forest and can't be used as an ingredient!"
He had heard of this legend in his previous life. There was an unparalleled demonic lord that was suppressed in the East Imperial Great World. He had once commanded three billion demons to wage war against ten thousand worlds. In the end, he was defeated by the East Imperial Great World and was suppressed in the East Imperial Great World.
He never thought that he would encounter such a thing today. This demonic lord's strength had been reduced to the level of a late-stage Domain realm expert. It was a pity that he had used up all his trump cards when he rescued Zhu Luan. Otherwise, he could have summoned his Sword Origin clone or Senior Ming Zhen, and this matter would have been easily resolved.
Right now, he could only pretend that he did not know and resolutely enter the cave. He would find that shrine and seal it forever to prevent any future troubles. As for that little girl, she must have been sent by the faction behind this demonic lord to rescue him. Even if he saw her, he would not save her.
The cave was pitch black. Even with his Heaven's Eye, Zhao Yuande could not see beyond ten feet. This was an extremely dangerous thing for a cultivator.
The deeper he went, the softer the ground became. It was as if he had entered a swamp.
He looked down and found that the ground had turned blood-red, and there was a nauseating stench coming from it.
"This is!" Zhao Yuande suddenly saw a white light appear on the ground. He hurriedly took a closer look and realized that it was a bone that was emitting a milky-white light. He picked up the bone and weighed it in his hand. It weighed at least five thousand kilograms. Furthermore, the bone was extremely hard. It was not inferior to a top-tier Spirit Treasure.
"Human leg bones are extremely tough. The essence in the bones has already dissipated. They can't be used as food!"
"This must be the bone of a Heavenly Emperor or even a God Emperor. Only people at their level can temper their bones to such an extent!" Zhao Yuande made a rough estimation. Immediately, an extremely shocked expression appeared on his face.
"If I keep this bone, I might be able to forge a top-tier Spirit Treasure!"
However, Zhao Yuande was soon overwhelmed. More and more bones appeared on the ground. For a moment, the entire space was illuminated in a snow-white light.
Only then did Zhao Yuande realize that he was no longer in the cave. Instead, he had arrived at a vast and boundless barren land.
This place was filled with snow-white bones and some rusty weapons. Black ghosts were wandering on the ground.
"Ghosts from the ancient battlefield. They possess powerful resentment. They can be purified. They can't be used as food!"
"I know, this is the battlefield of that battle, and these white bones and weapons were all left behind by the human cultivators of that battle. After the Devil Clan died, they would turn into a Devil Spirit Pill, this pill is very nutritious, I don't think anyone would be stupid enough to throw it here!" Zhao Yuande didn't have any wishful thinking. Every demon was equivalent to a great medicine. Experts above the Yin Yang Unity Realm could strengthen their divine soul after consuming it.
Spirit Pills that could strengthen one's divine soul were extremely rare in the cultivation world. Furthermore, the cost of manufacturing them was ridiculously expensive. These demons were probably the miraculous medicine in the eyes of the various major powers. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many experts working together to eliminate three billion demons in just a few years.
