The Horned Dragon could not move. It could feel the terrifying aura from the black flames that bound it. Its soul trembled, and it wanted to kowtow and worship it.
It was a kind of reverence that came from its soul, from its bones.
"What's going on? What kind of flame is this?" The Horned Dragon was terrified.
What made the Horned Dragon even more terrified was that it found that its life force was being burned by the strange flame.
Even with the Horned Dragon's immense life force, it could not withstand the burning for too long.
Boom!
Mo Yan, who was floating in the air, appeared in the mortal world like a god descending from the heavens.
He did not look at the Horned Dragon anymore. Instead, he glanced at the other five seventh-grade demonic beasts. Under their fearful gazes, he grinned, revealing his snow-white teeth.
"You like to chase, huh?"
Mo Yan waved his hand gently, and a fire domain formed around him. Black fire lotuses covered the area.
"Go!" He shouted softly.
In just an instant, the black fire lotuses bloomed in the sky and rushed toward the five seventh-grade demonic beasts.
Its power was shocking, and it intimidated all the demonic beasts. They were so frightened that their souls trembled. They did not dare to resist and could only use their murderous techniques.
However, all the murderous techniques were disintegrated by the Longevity Fire Lotus. They exploded, and light danced in the air.
"What kind of fire is this?" The seventh-grade demonic beasts' bodies trembled, and their hair stood on end. They were terrified to the extreme. They did not understand how Mo Yan, who was at their mercy and powerless to resist, became a demon king in the blink of an eye.
Such a sudden rise and fall made their hearts almost collapse. They turned around and wanted to escape.
However, it was too late to escape now.
The Longevity Fire around Mo Yan was burning fiercely, and the fire lotuses scattered.
He had never been a talkative person.
Therefore, he only pressed his hand down silently.
The black fire lotuses soared into the sky again. They expanded in the wind, and it was extremely terrifying.
Swoosh!
One of the seventh-grade demonic beasts had a huge body. It was a ferocious bird, and its wings were bright like lightning.
Seeing the black fire lotuses flying toward it, it tried its best to resist. Two rays of light shot out from its eyes, and it was extremely terrifying. Wisps of bright essence flew out from its eyes and shot toward the fire lotuses.
However, at the moment when the light collided with the black fire lotus, an incomparable light bloomed from the fire lotus, directly drowning out the light. Then, it continued to move forward and drowned the ferocious bird.
Its enormous body was wrapped up by the black fire lotus just like that. It struggled with all its might, but it was unable to move.
"Run!"
When the remaining four seventh-grade demonic beasts saw this scene, they were all terrified. They screamed in fear and quickly scattered in all directions.
"Oh my god, what happened? Wasn't he on the verge of death? How could he suddenly erupt with such combat strength?!"
Their hair stood on end, their bodies were cold, and they had lost the will to fight.
"No one can leave," Mo Yan said softly, staring at the four demonic beasts.
His voice was not loud, but it was like a decree. There was a terrifying majesty in it that made people unable to resist.
Scuttle! Scuttle! Scuttle!
Mo Yan snorted and the black-coloured Longevity Flame charged up into the sky. The fire lotus burst out with a dazzling light, like a dazzling sun.
The black fire lotus blotted out the sky and covered the earth, sweeping in all directions and rushing towards the remaining demonic beasts.
They tried their best to resist, either using ferocious techniques, using divine abilities, or desperately dodging.
However, all their efforts were useless.
Their ferocious techniques were shattered, their divine abilities were destroyed, and their dodging speed was no match for the speed of the fire lotus.
The Longevity Flame Lotus shattered all resistance. Like a huge mouth, it wrapped all the demonic beasts inside.
At this moment, a strange scene happened.
Six extremely terrifying seventh-grade demonic beasts were frozen in place by a huge black fire lotus.
It was as if time had stopped and everything was still. The demonic beasts turned into statues, maintaining their original posture of wanting to escape. They hovered in the void, motionless, their eyes filled with fear.
Only the black fire burned fiercely.
"Brother Lu, I will definitely bring the news back to the human race. But please," Mo Yan's eyes were cold as he muttered, "You must return to the human race alive."
After that, he did not look at the demonic beasts anymore. His body was shrouded in a dazzling light. Without looking back, he used an escape technique to leave this place and flew in the direction of the human race.
Mo Yan did not deliberately mystify things, nor did he have any intention of letting these demonic beasts live.
It was the Longevity Flame's ability that allowed Mo Yan to ignore these demonic beasts.
Although the Longevity Flame was named Longevity, it was completely different from the Living Spirit Flame, which had a similar name. They were two completely different types of flames.
It did not have the ability to heal, and it could not make people live forever.
What it did have was unparalleled lethality.
In fact, the Longevity Flame was the purest and most violent Exceptional Flame.
The reason why it was called Eternal Life was because it was also known as the flame that would never be extinguished.
Once the Longevity Flame touched the enemy, it would continuously absorb the enemy's life and turn it into fuel for its own burning.
It would only extinguish when the enemy's life was sucked dry and turned into ashes, no longer providing vitality.
It would use one's life to kill.
Of course, there was another way to extinguish the Longevity Flame.
That was to kill the master of the Longevity Flame.
There was no other way.
Therefore, the moment the Longevity Flame Lotus wrapped around the demonic beasts, their fates were already sealed.
They would definitely die.
They would not die directly. Instead, they would feel their lives slowly slipping away in a long period of despair and count down to the moment of death.
They knew that they would die, but they were powerless to stop it.
This was the power of the Longevity Flame, the Torch Dragon Palace's ancestral flame, ranked third on the Exceptional Flame Ranking.
The Inner Demon was born in the black lotus.
However, this time, their divided souls would also die in the black lotus.
The black Longevity Flame Lotus.
Its name was Longevity, but its blooming represented death.
.....
"Your Highness, the other teams haven't found any traces of that human sword cultivator yet," Huang Yang and Tianmang reported.
Tianmang was stunned for a moment. He frowned. "His condition isn't right. He's already heavily injured. He won't be able to run far."
He closed his eyes and thought about it from another perspective. "If it were me, what would I do in such a situation …?"
"That's right." After pondering for a moment, Tianmang opened his eyes. His eyes flickered under his golden armor. "He won't be able to run far. Once the pursuers find him, he won't be able to fight back in his heavily injured state. He'll definitely die.
Therefore, there's only one choice left. He'll find a place to hide and heal his wounds. Once he's better, he'll think of a way to escape. "
"Although it's only an expedient plan, it's still better than running around like a headless fly."
"But we've sent out so many monsters to search for him. According to Your Highness, this human sword cultivator can't have run far. Why haven't we found any traces of him yet?" Huang Yang asked.
"There are three possibilities," Tianmang said in a muffled voice, "The first possibility is that Lu Qingshan has mastered some kind of secret technique or secret treasure that has the ability to hide his presence. We may have already passed by his hiding place, but we didn't discover him."
"The second possibility is that he also has a pet beast. Although he's injured, he managed to escape further than we expected with the help of his pet beast. Our search radius hasn't covered his hiding place yet."
"The last possibility is that he's lucky."
Huang Yang was stunned. Then, he smiled. "In the face of absolute power, no matter how lucky he is, he'll only die a slower death. He won't be able to survive."
"That's true." Tianmang nodded. His Force Armor shone with a golden light under the dim sky.
"But," he paused, then said coldly, "I don't have the patience to play hide-and-seek with him anymore."
"I can't wait to find him right now and take everything away from him while he stares at me in despair!" Tianmang's voice was filled with murderous intent. His eyes glinted coldly.
"I'd like to see how long you can hide today!"
The next moment, he formed a seal with one hand.
"Control, command!" Tianmang whispered.
Demonic energy surged, forming a giant face in front of his hand.
The face was extremely strange. It had no mouth or nose, only a pair of closed eyes.
Waves of light erupted from the face's eyes.
The waves of light didn't seem to have any lethality. They passed right through any material object they came into contact with.
The Mental Demons had two supernatural powers.
The first was spirit mastery, the source of the Mental Demons' strength.
The second was life mastery. It wasn't as powerful as spirit mastery, but it was still extremely strange.
Life mastery was to confuse one's mind and control one's Primordial Spirit.
It was a technique that involved the Primordial Spirit, and it was in line with the characteristics of the Mental Demons.
At this moment, Tianmang was using life mastery to find Lu Qingshan's traces.
Life mastery was used to control living beings with Primordial Spirits, not dead objects.
The waves of light would only stop when they came into contact with living beings.
And in the withered and desolate Great Wasteland, it just so happened that as long as one found a living being, there was a high chance that it was the fleeing Lu Qingshan.
The waves of light spread out with Tianmang's body as the center.
Tianmang sped up again, like a human-shaped radar, searching toward the wasteland.
The subordinates behind him didn't hesitate and immediately followed his footsteps.
Logically speaking, it would be more efficient if they split up to search.
However, Tianmang's main body was out. To them, protecting Tianmang's main body was the most important thing. It was more important than anything else.
The search continued for several hours.
At this moment, Tianmang suddenly noticed something unusual.
He began to slow down, and his body descended from the sky. His gaze landed on an extinct volcano in the distance that was spewing out hot black fog and flowing lava.
"Have you finally found him?" Tianmang's tone was ferocious.
This was because his Life Mastery divine power had reacted in this volcano.
In other words, there must be a living being with Primordial Spirits in this volcano.
Furthermore, he could sense that the Primordial Spirit was extremely powerful. It definitely wasn't something that any wild demon could possess.
In this sensitive time and place, who else could have such a powerful Primordial Spirit other than that genius sword practitioner of the Human Clan?
"You're smart to hide in the volcano. If I hadn't used my Life Mastery divine power, I might have been caught by you if I wasn't careful," muttered Tianmang.
A mocking and cruel smile suddenly appeared on his face, which was covered by Force Armor.
As long as he found Lu Qingshan, even if he was in his peak condition, he would be a pig waiting to be slaughtered in front of his eighth-grade Second Cast body and his powerful First Tribulation subordinates, let alone when he was seriously injured.
"The human race has such a lowly bloodline, but they have endless potential. They can produce cultivators who can fight with us noble Demons. They can even produce a Xia Dao Ancestor." Tianmang stood in the air and looked at the volcano below indifferently.
"With such potential and the noble bloodline of my Inner Demons, they are invincible!" His eyes became greedier.
The Inner Demons liked different types of split souls. Some felt that demon beasts had extremely strong bodies and had the same bloodline divine power, so they chose demon beasts as their split souls.
Some felt that other Demons' bloodlines were extraordinary and belonged to the same system as them. They could naturally master them, so they chose other powerful Demons' bloodlines as their split souls.
However, in Tianmang's eyes, he liked humans who had no bloodline divine power and a completely different system from Demons. All their strength came from cultivation!
The heavens were fair. Humans didn't have powerful bodies, nor did they have noble bloodlines. Therefore, they had endless potential.
As for this human sword cultivator named Lu Qingshan, even in the entire Human Clan, his potential was unparalleled.
This was the best split soul.
"Stop hiding and come out!" Tianmang did not waste any more time and said to the volcano, "Otherwise, I won't be polite."
He put his hands behind his back and exuded an oppressive aura that made it difficult to breathe. There was no doubt that once he attacked, the world would collapse.
Whoosh!
A red light shot out from the volcano and stopped in midair. A Daoist figure appeared from it.
Tianmang's eyes swept over it, and his heart sank.
This was because the figure that appeared in front of him was not the Lu Qingshan that he had been longing for. Instead, it was a woman with red lips, jade-like eyebrows, and a lithe figure in palace attire.
His Life Control divine power could only sense one Primordial Spirit.
There was already a woman in front of him, so there could not be a second living being. In other words, Lu Qingshan was not hiding here.
Tianmang stared at the woman. The atmosphere was so tense that it seemed to have frozen.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" Tianmang asked coldly, his killing intent clear.
'Self-cultivation, self-cultivation …' Qin Yitian repeated in her heart. She recalled her experience with the Young Master all these years and forced herself to calm down. Her mind worked quickly.
It had been several hours since Lu Qingshan formed the Law Domain Seed.
Logically speaking, once the Law Domain Seed was formed, it was only a matter of time before the Law Domain Seed was formed.
This amount of time was enough for Lu Qingshan to establish his Law Domain.
However, common sense did not apply to the Young Master.
Lu Qingshan had not yet awakened from his meditation, but the Demons had already found them.
Qin Yitian understood.
She had to buy enough time for the Young Master.
She was not afraid of Tianmang.
As the spirit of a Dao Artifact, it was difficult for her to die.
The problem was, how was she going to attract Tianmang's attention from the volcano below to herself?
The next moment.
Qin Yitian's face was filled with terror.
Boom!
A blazing red sword light flashed, and Qin Yitian's figure disappeared.
Shapeless Sword Release.
As a Sword Spirit who had inherited the Sword Master's talent, it was not difficult for her to master the Shapeless Sword Release.
"This is … that Sword Cultivator's sword?!"
The Dragon Sparrow's characteristics were too obvious. Tianmang recognized it immediately.
"Why would his sword be with a beautiful woman?" Tianmang also understood that a Sword Cultivator's Natal Sword could not be given to anyone else.
"Could it be that this woman is Lu Qingshan in disguise?" He even had this absurd guess in his heart.
However, he rejected this idea in an instant.
She was right in front of him, but he did not find any trace of an illusion.
There was no way a level-six cultivator's illusion could fool an eighth-grade Devil Master like him.
"Forget it. What's the point of thinking so much? Let's capture her first. Haha …" Tianmang's lips curled into a strange smile.
"Do you think you can escape from me?"
A beam of light shot out of Tianmang's eyes. It was so fast that the naked eye could not see it.
In an instant, Qin Yitian's sword light was bound by the beam of light. She fell out of the sword light.
Then, she realized that she was frozen in the air. She could not move.
Tianmang's lips curled into a mocking smile. He flashed and appeared in front of Qin Yitian, looking at the Dragon Sparrow floating in the air.
"Tell me, where did you get this sword?"
Qin Yitian stared at Tianmang, who was covered in golden armor, and then at the dozens of Tribulation Realm demonic cultivators behind him. She lowered her eyes helplessly, remaining silent.
If she did not answer, Tianmang would focus on interrogating her. That would buy more time for Lu Qingshan.
"Young Master, this is all I can do."
"Not talking?" Tianmang said coldly. "Then don't blame me for being cruel. You're such a beautiful woman. I really don't want to do something so cruel. Haha …"
A layer of blood-red light appeared in Tianmang's hand. It had a special corrosive and polluting power.
His red hand reached out like a demon's claw, slowly reaching for Qin Yitian's snow-white neck. He wanted to grab it.
"But if you insist on forcing me, don't blame me for being cruel." Tianmang sneered.
Qin Yitian lowered her eyes. She was unwilling to accept this.
She was the spirit of a Doctrine Artifact. She was not afraid of death. But to be controlled by a Demon like this was an unimaginable humiliation.
Whoosh!
Qin Yitian could already smell the rotting stench coming from Tianmang's claw.
Just as Tianmang's demonic claw was about to grab her neck and lift her up …
Time seemed to freeze at this moment. The rotting power suddenly stopped.
A familiar voice rang out, making her nose ache.
"How dare you?"
