n

n

n“Where do you think you’re going!”

n

nAlthough Li Yuanqing felt that he had been tricked by the Blood Vine and was abnormally depressed that he could not find it, he could not let this Devil King go just like that. If this guy really escaped back to the Devil Realm from this place, there would be endless trouble.

n

nLi Yuanqing took a step forward and slashed the sword in his hand at the crack, cutting off the Devil King’s path of retreat.

n

nThe Devil King had already turned into black smoke, but he was slashed back to his original form. He was furious. “Human brat, don’t force me! With your strength, you can’t make an enemy of me at all. Let me pass obediently. Otherwise, I won’t be merciful!”

n

nLi Yuanqing was calm as he looked at him coldly and said, “Cut the crap. If you want to leave, ask my sword if it agrees. If not, stay here obediently and don’t go anywhere!”

n

nWhen the Devil King heard Li Yuanqing’s words, he flew into a rage out of humiliation. He took out a black Heaven Splitting Great Ax and transformed into countless devilish shadows that slashed at Li Yuanqing’s face.

n

n“Human kid, give me your life!”

n

nWith a loud shout, it transformed into countless devilish shadows and arrived in front of Li Yuanqing.

n

nEver since Li Yuanqing stepped into the fourth-grade Formation Arrangement Realm, he had never encountered such a powerful enemy. Although this person’s strength was similar to his, his every move had the power to devour mountains and rivers.

n

nFortunately, Li Yuanqing was agile. Seeing that the move was about to land in front of him, he retreated in a flash and barely dodged the huge ax.

n

nThe black ax slashed heavily on the black stone, leaving two white marks on the incomparably hard black stone.

n

nThe Devil King was even more ashamed and resentful after missing! He was the overlord of the Devil Realm. After coming to the Demon Realm, he had originally occupied an area. However, he was completely ruined by this human kid in front of him.

n

nIt was everything this human kid had done. He had cruelly killed countless of his subordinates. He was the one who had sealed the passageway he had left behind.

n

nAll of this was done by this human kid in front of him. This person could be said to have done a lot of bad things.

n

nThe more the Devil King thought about it, the angrier he became. The power in his hand increased. His other hand suddenly shook, and a huge black ax appeared. The two axes collided with a deafening sound.

n

n“Human kid, since you’re so stubborn and want to die here, don’t blame me for being rude!”

n

nThe Devil King raised his hands high and disappeared from the spot like a huge black ape. There were a few afterimages in the air. These afterimages were in different positions. All these afterimages were extremely real, but they were also dreamlike.

n

nLi Yuanqing suddenly turned around and threw a handful of thunder bombs behind him. A huge figure flashed out from the wall behind him and collided with the hundreds of thunder bombs.

n

nFor a moment, the crackling sound was endless.

n

nLi Yuanqing retreated to the other side. Taking advantage of the time when the Devil King was stunned, the sword in his hand flew up and stabbed straight at the Devil King. The black sword expanded in the wind. It only crossed a distance of dozens of meters, but it had also grown dozens of times in size. It was like a monstrous sword that brought justice.

n

n“Bang!”

n

nThe violent collision echoed in the passageway, deafening everyone.

n

nLi Yuanqing glanced at the gap while taking a breath after his attack.

n

nAt some point, the gap in the stone door seemed to have opened a little wider than before. Moreover, there was a faint strange aura coming from inside. The energy fluctuation inside was quite strange.

n

nWhat was inside? Li Yuanqing knew nothing about this, and the Blood Vine was completely silent. After the Blood Vine went missing, all his seeds had gone missing.

n

nWhile Li Yuanqing was distracted, the Devil King slowly walked out of the smoke. His body was still as strong as before. His strong body directly waved away the smoke. His heavy breathing seemed to hang above one’s heart, filled with pressure.

n

n“Human kid, you forced me!”

n

nAs soon as he finished speaking, a huge dark cloud condensed above his head. At first, the gathering of the dark cloud was very slow, but after a while, it began to slowly rotate in one direction. Finally, it formed a funnel vortex above the Devil King’s head.

n

nThe aura on his body also soared after the vortex appeared.

n

nFourth-grade Formation Arrangement Realm.

n

nFifth-grade Formation Arrangement Realm.

n

nSixth-grade Formation Arrangement Realm.

n

nWhen he reached the sixth-grade Formation Arrangement Realm, the aura on the Devil King’s body finally stabilized. His body also increased greatly, and his aura was completely different from before.

n

nLi Yuanqing looked at the Devil King and could not help but take a step back.

n

nThis fellow had gone crazy and sucked out all the power in his body. It seemed like he was going to fight Li Yuanqing to the death.

n

nJust as Li Yuanqing was about to make a move, he suddenly heard a creak.

n

nTheir gazes were both attracted by the open stone door. Not only had the crack at the bottom right corner of the huge stone door expanded, but it had also been opened by someone to a length of more than ten meters.

n

nThis was a huge crack. It directly revealed a little detail of the space inside, allowing the two of them to see some of the scene inside.

n

nThe Devil King looked inside, but the lights inside were much brighter than outside. It did not look like the Devil Realm at all. If it was in the Devil Realm, there would definitely be rich devilish energy there. However, the Devil King did not sense a trace of devilish energy. He only felt a vast and huge power.

n

nThe Devil King gritted his teeth and looked at the stone door. At this moment, he was finally certain that he had been tricked by that person who was neither human nor ghost. But when did that little guy escape? He actually didn’t notice at all. By the time he reacted, this person’s essence soul had already left his body and disappeared.

n

nThe Devil King was thinking about what to do now and did not notice that there was a middle-aged man in front of him. This man had an immortal aura and was dressed in a Daoist robe. His beard that fluttered in the wind was so soft, and his clothes were neat and spotless.

n

nHowever, the man’s eyes were tightly closed.

n

nThe man faced the Devil King and seemed to have no aura at all. The Devil King turned to look at Li Yuanqing and finally saw the man’s figure. He was shocked by the sudden appearance of the man. In fact, he had just taken two steps forward when he couldn’t help but step back and lean against the wall.

n

nHe did not know why he was afraid, but this harmless-looking man gave off an incomparably terrifying feeling. He clearly did not emit any power, but he was so terrifying. This fear seemed to come from the bottom of his heart and from his bloodline.

n

nThe Devil King clenched the two axes in his hands and looked quietly at the man with his eyes closed. He did not know what this person was trying to do.

n

n“Good kid, so you’ve been following me. You’re not the only one. You even invited a helper!”

n

nLi Yuanqing was also stunned. He did not know who this person was or when this guy had come out. Just now, when he turned around, there was such a statue-like figure in front of him. This person stood there strangely without moving. He was stuck between them, and no one knew what he meant.

n

nLi Yuanqing could not figure out this man’s background, so he did not dare to act rashly. On the other hand, the Devil King could not hold back anymore.

n

nThe vortex above his head kept spinning. The power on his body had gathered to a sufficient level. Now that his power had reached its peak, if he did not release it, most of it would be wasted.

n

nThe Devil King suddenly raised his two axes and slashed at the man.

n

nThe man with closed eyes slowly raised one of his withered arms. Li Yuanqing only saw the man raise his arm, and a huge force spread out from the man’s palm. In an instant, it crushed the Devil King’s body and slapped him against the stone wall like a fly.

n

nThe Devil King was still extremely arrogant just now, but now, he was like a child in front of the man. He could not retaliate at all and was pressed firmly against the wall by this strange man, unable to move.

n

n“Let go of me!” The Devil King roared sternly.

n

n“The devils are still so noisy.”

n

nLi Yuanqing seemed to have heard the man speak, but he was uncertain. He seemed to have heard him just now.

n

nAfter hearing this sentence, the Devil King on the wall suddenly became mute. Li Yuanqing looked over again. How could the Devil King still look human? The man pressed him flat against the wall and turned him into a ball of black smoke. He actually cracked the stone wall behind him and absorbed the smoke.

n

nThis arrogant Devil King was killed like a fly.

n

nLi Yuanqing looked at the strange man in front of him silently. He felt that this person had a very familiar aura.

n

nAfter killing the Devil King, the man did not deal with Li Yuanqing anymore. Instead, he turned around and walked into the stone door.

n

nThe stone door was now completely open.

n

nLi Yuanqing hesitated for a while before following the man in.

n

nBehind the stone door was a very narrow room.

n

nThere were a few bodies sitting on the ground of the room. The reason why it was called bodies was because there was no vitality in these people.

n

nSitting under these people was a huge array. These arrays filled the small room.

n

nIf one looked carefully, there was a small independent array under everyone’s buttocks. These small arrays were connected together and gathered into this large array. The array patterns extended from the ground and wrapped the walls and ceiling of the entire room.

n

nJust looking at these array patterns gave one a majestic feeling. It was as if these array patterns alone could block the invasion of a huge force.

n

nThere were a total of eight directions, and seven people were sitting on it, except for the empty spot on the south. Li Yuanqing looked up and saw a man sitting at a small table in the deepest part of the room. This man was the one who had appeared just now.

n

nThe man reached out to touch the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup of tea, but he couldn’t see anything. The teapot was empty too. It was like some kind of muscle memory. He mechanically poured the tea and took a sip.

n

nThe man kept repeating that action. Li Yuanqing did not know what he meant and was puzzled. Although he did not know what this man wanted, he must have his reasons for sitting there. Li Yuanqing followed him to the stone table and sat down silently.

n

nThe man seemed to have sensed that someone was sitting opposite him and helped Li Yuanqing pour a cup of tea.

n

nLi Yuanqing looked at the empty cup and tactfully picked it up and downed it. It was strange. The cup was clearly empty and there was nothing inside. However, he drank it in one gulp as if he had really drunk some fragrant spiritual tea.

n

nThe man finally said, “It’s time, it’s life!”

n

nLi Yuanqing did not know what the man was sighing about, but he could not interrupt. He sat at the side and listened obediently.

n

n“Thank you. If not for you, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have such an opportunity.”

n

nAs he spoke, he poured another cup of tea for Li Yuanqing.

n

nLi Yuanqing looked at him hesitantly and asked, “In that case, we used to know each other?”

n

nThe man heaved a long sigh of relief and looked at Li Yuanqing. “How could you forget so quickly? Master!”

n

nLi Yuanqing’s eyes widened in surprise. Although he had guessed it just now, it was not realistic. What was the strength of the Blood Vine? What was the strength of the man in front of him? He looked bottomless. How could he be the Blood Vine?

n

nBut it was clearly the Blood Vine who brought him here, and it was the Blood Vine who arranged all of this. Why was this man here? If this place had really been sealed for more than a thousand years, how did he survive here?

n

n“You’re the Blood Vine?”

n

nThe man said indifferently, “I’m Teng Wudao.”

n

n“In that case, everything that happened during this period of time was arranged by you. You arranged for the Devil King to come to this place and help you undo the seal and let you in. In that case, this body should be your main body, right?”

n

nOnly then did Li Yuanqing remember that the Blood Vine was good at puppet techniques. It could split its souls and spread its seeds throughout the continent.

n

nThe man gently raised his hand and scattered a handful of smoke in front of Li Yuanqing.
