Liang Tian and Xuanfeng Zhenren stepped into the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, where fog enveloped the surroundings, and a chilling aura pressed against them. The mountains were eerily quiet, occasionally pierced by the low growls of unknown beasts, as if warning them of the dangers that lay ahead.
Xuanfeng Zhenren whispered to Liang Tian, "We are nearing the Blood Demon Cult's lair. We must not be careless; the traps and mechanisms they have set are surely deadly." Liang Tian nodded slightly, fully focused on sensing the movements around him. He channeled his spiritual energy to sharpen his senses.
As they navigated the winding and rugged mountain path, Liang Tian suddenly detected unusual fluctuations in the Spiritual Energy ahead. He quickly grabbed Xuanfeng Zhenren's arm and whispered, "Master, be careful; there's a trap ahead." Xuanfeng Zhenren looked closely and saw that what appeared to be a flat surface concealed hidden dangers. If they stepped carelessly, they would surely trigger a mechanism.
Xuanfeng Zhenren took out a specially crafted talisman from his robe and tossed it gently. The talisman shimmered in the air before slowly descending onto the trap area. With a faint rumble, the trap was activated, and numerous sharp wooden stakes shot up from the ground. Taking advantage of the momentary distraction caused by the mechanism, Liang Tian and Xuanfeng Zhenren swiftly executed their techniques and leaped over the trap.
As they delved deeper, they encountered a group of Blood Demon Cult followers blocking their path. Dressed in black robes and wielding sharp blades, their eyes gleamed with ferocity and fanaticism. "How dare you trespass into the territory of the Blood Demon Cult! You must be tired of living!" shouted the leader of the cultists.
Unfazed, Liang Tian moved swiftly and launched an attack first. He unleashed a sophisticated Spell learned at Qingfeng Temple, transforming his spiritual energy into blades that flew toward the Blood Demon Cult followers. Xuanfeng Zhenren was not to be outdone; with a wave of his Whisk, a powerful Qi Liu swept through, sending nearby cultists tumbling in disarray.
The battle intensified as both sides clashed fiercely. Although outnumbered, Liang Tian and Xuanfeng Zhenren were formidable opponents with excellent teamwork. Liang Tian utilized his agility and sharp Spells to weave through enemy ranks, each strike landing precisely on vital points. Meanwhile, Xuanfeng Zhenren controlled the battlefield from behind, deploying large-scale Spells at opportune moments to suppress their foes.
After a grueling fight, the Blood Demon Cult followers began to falter and fell one by one. However, before Liang Tian and Xuanfeng Zhenren could catch their breath, more cultists surged in from all directions. Clearly, their intrusion had alerted the core forces of the Blood Demon Cult.
In the midst of battle, Liang Tian noticed that these cultists seemed to be deliberately driving them in a certain direction. A thought crossed his mind as he said to Xuanfeng Zhenren, "Master, it seems they are leading us somewhere; there might be a trap involved." Xuanfeng Zhenren pondered for a moment before replying, "Regardless of their intentions, we cannot retreat now that we have ventured this far. But we must remain vigilant and act according to circumstances."
They continued to follow the "guidance" of the Blood Demon Cult followers until they soon arrived at an ancient palace. The palace was grand yet exuded a nauseating stench of blood. As its massive doors slowly opened, a tall man in a red robe emerged with a cruel smile on his face—he was none other than the Blood Demon Sect Leader.
"You finally arrived—the remnants of Qingfeng Temple and that reckless boy. Today marks your end!" laughed the Blood Demon Sect Leader arrogantly.
Xuanfeng Zhenren stepped forward, glaring at him fiercely. "You evil scoundrel! You commit atrocities and harm innocents; today I shall act on behalf of justice to eradicate your wickedness!"
The Blood Demon Sect Leader scoffed disdainfully, "You think you can challenge me? I’m eager to see just how capable you really are." With that, he swiftly formed hand seals, and countless streams of black mist surged around the palace. Within the mist, grotesque ghostly faces flickered ominously, lunging toward Liang Tian and Xuanfeng Zhenren.
Liang Tian and Xuanfeng Zhenren immediately cast the Protective Spell to fend off the encroaching black mist. Liang Tian was acutely aware of the formidable strength of the Blood Demon Sect Leader and knew not to underestimate him. He summoned all the spiritual energy within him and unleashed his most powerful spell. A brilliant Golden Light shot forth from his hands, aimed directly at the Blood Demon Sect Leader.
At the same time, Xuanfeng Zhenren also exerted his strength. He concentrated all his lifelong learning into Whisk, releasing a powerful Qi Liu that howled forth, working in tandem with Liang Tian's spell as they both launched an assault on the Blood Demon Sect Leader. The Blood Demon Sect Leader's expression shifted slightly; he sensed the threat posed by these two formidable forces and hurriedly invoked the Evil Techniques of the Blood Demon Cult in an attempt to counter their attack.
