“That might be because the great formation in the remains of the Yunmengze Immortal Mansion suppressed the realm of that Demon Venerable at that time.”
Fairy Lingyue said.
“It’s possible.”
Xu Taiping nodded secretly.
And just at this moment, he finally saw the appearance of that Demon Venerable through the Jade Bone Grass – with red hair, a black and white face, with expressions of joy and anger, wearing a large cloak, holding a golden skeleton crutch, with a height of more than one zhang, stepping on a mass of black fog and traveling by the wind.
And just as Xu Taiping was about to withdraw his gaze and start preparing to slip away, the old man suddenly stopped his figure, and then snorted coldly and smashed the crutch in his hand heavily downward.
Just heard a “bang”, a columnar black and gold mixed flame suddenly shot out from the golden crutch in his hand.
“Boom！”
As the flame fell, in the blink of an eye, a large area of Jade Bone Grass below was first burned clean.
“Did he sense my gaze？”
Xu Taiping was filled with surprise and wonder.
Just now, it was precisely by borrowing the gaze of that cluster of Jade Bone Grass that he observed that black and white-faced Demon Venerable.
“Jade Bone Grass is not omnipotent. To truly exert its power, hundreds of cultivators must control it together. So Taiping, don’t attempt to use this to deal with that Demon Venerable.”
Fairy Lingyue reminded Xu Taiping at this time.
“I understand.”
Xu Taiping nodded, then put away his spoils and began to control the Jade Bone Grass to completely cover his body, and then borrowed the gaze of the Jade Bone Grass in the distance to secretly observe the situation outside.
“Master Wuchang！”
Chen Sheng called out to the black and white-faced Demon Venerable with a look of extreme fear and respect at this time.
“I told you to catch the person. Where is the person？”
As he said this, the black and white faces of the Wuchang Demon Venerable both changed into angry expressions at the same time.
“Reporting to Master Wuchang, the person has been trapped by me in the sword formation！”
Although Chen Sheng felt a little confused, he still answered truthfully.
Upon hearing this, the black face of the Wuchang Demon Venerable changed from happy to white and the white face changed to angry, and then his large sleeve suddenly flicked towards the sword formation.
A scorching hot fire wind whistled down from that large sleeve.
“Boom！”
In just an instant, the sword array was broken, and a large area of jade bone grass in the array was burned to ashes.
Eight demonic cultivators, eight charred corpses, suddenly appeared in front of Chen Sheng.
“Not only did the person run away, but right under your nose, he killed eight demonic servants in a row, yet you didn’t notice at all. Chen Sheng, Chen Sheng, you disappoint me so much！”
The Wuchang Demon Venerable said with a cold face and no good temper.
Chen Sheng was first stunned, and then quickly knelt down and said：
“Please give this disciple another chance, this disciple will definitely catch that brat this time！”
Upon hearing this, the Wuchang Demon Venerable shook his head.
“First come back to the blood pool with me. The Demon God Blood Jade is about to be born. We can’t let the other several veins snatch all the benefits. As for the brat sent by the Nine Mansions, if he wants to connect the people from the Nine Mansions, he must come to the blood pool. Then we can just wait for him to come.”
He said impatiently to Chen Sheng.
“This disciple complies！”
Seeing that the Wuchang Demon Venerable had no intention of continuing to blame him, Chen Sheng was immediately overjoyed.
The two then flew away one after the other in the direction of the blood pool.
……
After the two left.
Xu Taiping was lifted up by the jade bone grass and floated out from the grass.
“He doesn’t seem to have found me.”
Looking at the departing figure of the Wuchang Demon Venerable, Xu Taiping said in surprise and murmured.
“Probably they don’t know the secret of the jade bone grass either.”
Fairy Lingyue nodded.
“That is to say, as long as I am careful, there is still a way to quietly go to the edge of that Blood Pool.”
Xu Taiping muttered.
At this time, through the Jade Bone Grass beside the Blood Pool, he could already see the scene on the other side of the Blood Pool. However, perhaps because it was too far away, it was very blurry.
“There is risk, but it can be tried. If you can grab a piece of Blood Jade, this risk can be ignored even more.”
Fairy Lingyue nodded and said.
“What is this Demon God Blood Jade? Can we cultivators also use it?”
Xu Taiping asked Fairy Lingyue curiously.
“It is useless to you, but it is useful to the Earth Fruit.”
Fairy Lingyue smiled mysteriously.
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping’s eyes lit up immediately.
The nourishment of the Earth Fruit indeed has no distinction between immortals and demons.
“Taiping, this strand of my divine sense won’t last long. Although you still have a bamboo knot in your hand, it’s best not to open it unless it’s a life-and-death crisis.”
Fairy Lingyue said at this time with a somewhat urgent tone.
Xu Taiping nodded seriously upon hearing this.
He knew that Fairy Lingyue’s last bamboo knot was definitely left for him to save his life.
“Next, you just need to make good use of this Jade Bone Grass. Even in the face of that Demon Venerable just now, you will still have the power to protect yourself.”
“As for the entrustment of the Nine Mansions and that piece of Blood Jade, you should do what you can. The most important thing is to take care of your own safety.”
Fairy Lingyue continued.
“If there is a chance to take action, I will never miss it. If not, then I will hide in the Jade Bone Grass and just watch the excitement.”
Xu Taiping smiled at the gradually disappearing shadow of Fairy Lingyue.
He didn’t think that a mere cultivator in the Wangyou Realm like himself could participate in this battle between immortals and demons. If he made a wrong move, he would probably become cannon fodder.
……
Not long after the shadow of Fairy Lingyue dissipated.
Xu Taiping controlled the Jade Bone Grass and sent himself to the edge of the Blood Pool without having to walk there himself.
Previously, because the distance was too far, the scene seen through the Jade Bone Grass was too blurry. Now that he was close, the picture in his mind finally became clear.
Just as Fairy Lingyue had described, this Blood Pool was huge in area and couldn’t be seen at a glance.
And in the center of the Blood Pool, it could be faintly seen that there were several black-robed demonic cultivators floating in the air, as if they were conducting some kind of summoning ceremony.
Even from such a distance, the powerful fluctuations of qi coming from them could be felt.
“Maybe they are three demonic cultivators at the Demon Venerable level.”
Xu Taiping was secretly a little frightened.
Besides the three powerful demonic cultivators in the center of the Blood Pool, there was also a circle of demonic cultivators lying prostrate on the edge of the Blood Pool, as if they were waiting for something.
However, the sacrificial altar was not far away. It was on the edge of the Blood Pool, and there was a stone bridge leading to it.
“If there is a chance, I can control my clone and send this jade plate to the altar at that time.”
Xu Taiping thought in his heart.
“Of course, the premise is that there is someone who can draw away the magic cultivators guarding on the stone bridge for me.”
His gaze fell on the entrance of the stone bridge, on those magic cultivators.
Different from the magic soldiers he encountered before, these magic cultivators were all at the same level as Qing Yu and Chen Sheng.
It would be okay to deal with one or two, but dealing with five at once, he had no confidence.
“Boom！ …”
Just as Xu Taiping decided to wait and see what happened, a loud noise suddenly came from above the blood pool.
Looking up, I saw that a crack actually appeared in the originally pitch-black dome.
And in the middle of that crack, it was conspicuously the tip of a long sword.
“Boom！！ …”
With another loud noise, the crack in the dome became even bigger, and a proud male voice came through the crack——“The Pure Yang Sword Sect, Amon is here. You demons, retreat and die, if you don’t retreat, you will also die！”
