The cave in Bai Ling Mountain was already strange enough with its murals, but what puzzled her even more was that the deeper she went into the cave, the more she felt a red glow emanating from within.
The mountain was home to rare treasures and exotic beasts, and it was not surprising to find beautiful flowers and magical herbs. Of course, there were also things like the Man-Eating Mushroom. Ling Zhu, feeling curious, walked towards the cave, and the red light grew brighter.
After passing a winding stone wall, she saw a shrine at the back of the cave. On top of a round three-legged red altar sat a square carved box. She slowly approached it, hesitated for a moment, and finally opened the ornate box. Inside, an oval red jade pot instantly emitted a dazzling array of colors that made it hard to keep her eyes open.
"Wow, what is this!" Ling Zhu quickly turned her head away and raised her hand to shield her eyes. Once she adjusted to the brightness, she slowly turned back to examine the jade pot closely. Surrounding the translucent jade pot were four mythical beasts carved from Xuan Tie: the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise.
In the center of the jade pot were three small red characters: Luring Demon Pot.
Luring Demon Pot, Ancient Artifact; any demon absorbed by the Luring Demon Pot would be refined over forty-nine days into a puddle of pus, with no one ever surviving.
Although Ling Zhu had only heard about it before, she never expected that this Luring Demon Pot would be found in a cave beneath the cliff of Bai Ling Mountain.
She felt a surge of joy in her heart as she picked up the Luring Demon Pot. With this artifact, she would no longer have to fear the Heart Demon; capturing it in this Luring Demon Pot would also allow her to rescue her husband successfully.
Ling Zhu began to formulate new plans in her mind. She stored away the Luring Demon Pot and exited the cave, heading towards Bai Ling Mountain across from her. The Heart Demon was not so easily deceived; everything had to be carefully considered.
As dawn broke on Earth, night began to fall in Underground City’s Moon City. After several hours of fierce fighting, even gods were starting to feel exhausted.
On top of an ancient castle's eaves, Lian Cheng Xue sat slumped on the tiles, panting heavily. After several rounds of battle, her body began to weaken. However, the Ox Demon showed no signs of fatigue at all.
"Hey, are we still fighting?" The Ox Demon stared at Lian Cheng Xue sitting on the ground and then boredly shook his head. He simply sat down as well and took several swigs from his wine gourd, smacking his lips lazily.
This guy really has time to spare! Lian Cheng Xue secretly felt lucky; it seemed that this Ox Demon did not enjoy fighting fiercely nor did he seem intent on killing her. If it had been someone else, she probably would have died a hundred times by now.
Anyway, since I can't defeat this guy, it's not bad as long as I can hold him off. At least I won't be a burden to Qingtian and my mission will be considered accomplished. Lian Cheng Xue gestured towards the Ox Demon, saying, "Hey! Give me a drink!"
Seeing someone willing to drink with him, the Ox Demon didn't care whether the other party was an enemy or not and tossed the wine gourd over. "You can only have a sip; don't finish it all!"
Lian Cheng Xue took a sip from the gourd, nearly coughing up his lungs from the spiciness. "Wow, what kind of wine is this? It's so terrible!"
"Hmph! Just drinking it is good enough; don't be picky!" The Ox Demon snatched back the gourd and scolded, "You should be grateful. If I weren't in a good mood today, I would have already taken you down. You're lucky to run into me; if you had met Heizhu, you'd probably be dead by now!"
"Heizhu?" Lian Cheng Xue looked at the Ox Demon and asked, "Who is this Heizhu you're talking about?"
"The general under my boss!" The Ox Demon replied, rolling his eyes and sneering, "I don't know who will be so unfortunate to encounter that moody guy!"
Lian Cheng Xue broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this. The strength of the Ox Demon was already formidable as a fourth general; how powerful could this First General be? He hoped Qingtian and the others wouldn't run into trouble.
Someone was bound to be unlucky; Lian Cheng Xue was absolutely right. Lan Ran Qingtian had always had such good luck. The black flames burning around him were blown higher by the wind, wildly flickering and causing his long hair to dance in the gusts.
Heizhu and Qingtian had been fighting for several hours without a clear winner. He glanced at the wound on his leg that was bleeding profusely and couldn't help but smirk coldly. "Impressive, really impressive. These Holy Ten Exorcists are indeed not just for show; there are very few who can push me to this extent!"
"Hmph! You're too polite!" Lan Ran Qingtian's expression darkened. He reached up to touch his shoulder, which was throbbing with pain. It seemed that their fierce struggle had dislocated his left arm. His strong muscles bore various scratches and bruises; this general was indeed tough to deal with.
He wondered how Gu Senior was doing. This was truly troublesome. Taking a deep breath, he pulled hard with his right hand and pushed upwards. With several cracking sounds, his dislocated left arm was easily set back in place, thanks to Xiang Xueer’s influence.
"How about it? Are we still fighting?" Lan Ran Qingtian loosened up his muscles and took a step forward, staring at Heizhu. "But I have important matters to attend to; I don't really want to waste time with you!"
"Oh? The serious matter you're talking about isn't about wanting to kill the Black Dragon, is it?" Heizhu said with an indifferent expression, licking his dry lips with his tongue, unable to hide the excitement in his heart. He was much more interested in the prey before him, Lan Ran Qingtian.
"I don't care about that. Right now, I just want to kill you!" He spread his arms, and black flames began to envelop his hands. This time, the flames seemed even hotter, rolling and wrapping around his body, forming a massive pillar of black fire that shot straight up towards the high ceiling.
Lan Ran Qingtian squinted at the burning Heizhu in front of him and raised his arms, gradually forming a tiger bite stance. "It seems I have to go all out as well."
"Black Flow Sacred Fire: Explosive Fire Pillar!" Heizhu shouted loudly as he charged towards Qingtian. Blue Dye spread his arms wide, gathering energy in his dantian, and his arms circled around a massive flow of air, forming a whirlwind. "Exorcism Essence: Tiger Bite Double Dragons Storm Break!"
Could the Black Dragon Sacred Fire withstand the Seven Character Formula? After several loud booms, the entire ancient castle began to tilt, shaking even the Ox Demon and Lian Cheng Xue who were drinking on the roof.
"Wow! What's going on? Such intense shaking!" Lian Cheng Xue quickly grabbed hold of the eaves that had tilted at a 30-degree angle, turning in surprise to look down below. A rolling wave of black was spreading out from the windows—who was down there?
The Ox Demon sat cross-legged on the roof, steady as a mountain despite the tilt. He calmly sipped his drink and waved his hand dismissively. "It's nothing, nothing. It must be that guy Heizhu!"
Nothing? Lian Cheng Xue swallowed hard, suddenly worried. Was it Qingtian or Li Yunyang down there? It would be strange if they weren't roasted by such flames.
The violent explosion inevitably startled the two on the roof and also awakened the unconscious Li Yunyang and Cat Demon.
"What’s happening?" After urgently tending to his abdominal wound, Li Yunyang lay on the ground resting for several hours. He struggled to sit up and looked at the shaking ceiling above; it was clear that a battle was taking place up there.
At this moment, Cat Demon also woke up. He had been knocked unconscious by Li Yunyang's Five-Character Formula and arrogantly thought that Li Yunyang had no strength left to fight back. He didn't expect this guy to sneak attack him from behind, which infuriated him greatly.
