Chapter 1054: Demon Sealing

Gui Ling held a giant silver axe in his hand, upon which the phantom of a tiger-monster emerged, spitting out strange yellow mist, which allowed him to barely fend off the black Qi. Over there, Lin Lin Yinping and the Lingxi Peacock possessed by the Xu-surnamed youth were gathered together, and under the cover of the five-colored spiritual light, they were also barely able to protect themselves.

Han Li only swept a glance over these people, then frowned as he looked toward the Eight-Spirit Ruler and the Black Wind Flag in the air.

These two spiritual treasures, one temporarily demonized and the other an ownerless object, could not unleash their true power. Yet because of this, between the zhang-sized silver lotus and the black-python-like dragon, black winds surged and silver characters drifted; the two were evenly matched in their struggle.

But since these two spiritual treasures were in such a conspicuous place high in the sky, even if Han Li felt restless, he could only look at them from afar, unable to reach them. Not to mention the giant wolf incarnated by the Ancient Demon Saint Ancestor, even the others would never sit by and watch him take the spiritual treasures.

Ever since the Ancient Demon Saint Ancestor broke free, discovering that its divine abilities were not something he could withstand, Han Li immediately intended to flee far away and leave this place of trouble. But as it happened, these places were all enclosed spaces, and for a moment, there was simply no way to leave.

As a result, Han Li could only bite the bullet and try his best to avoid being truly drawn into the great battle.

Therefore, although he noticed that the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder had quite a miraculous effect against the pitch-black, strange demonic Qi, he only used it to protect his whole body and was absolutely unwilling to exert his full strength or foolishly charge forward to show off.

If he accidentally caught the attention of this Ancient Demon Saint Ancestor and it specifically targeted him, wouldn't he be in big trouble?

Moreover, if this Ancient Demon Saint Ancestor's split soul truly broke free, it should be the Great Jin cultivation world that suffered first. He had no intention of taking any risks for the cultivators of Great Jin.

While Han Li thought this secretly in his heart, his spiritual sense quietly spread out to probe into the altar.

As expected, the moment his spiritual sense swept onto the surface of the altar, it was bounced back by an inexplicable barrier and could not penetrate even a fraction into the altar.

Han Li sighed secretly, and his spiritual sense subconsciously swept toward the bottom of the altar, but he couldn't help but be slightly startled.

Deep beneath the altar, a hundred zhang underground, he actually sensed a chi-sized golden ball; it was the swarm of Gold-Devouring Beetles that had been secretly released back then.

These spirit insects had actually arrived at the ninth layer as well.

When he released these spirit insects back then, it was to search for the barrier of the eighth-layer space to see if he could find any weak points to exploit. But because of the appearance of the black teleportation array, he had not contacted these spirit insects again. Now it seemed that they had also been teleported to the ninth layer at the moment the space shattered.

Perhaps because these Gold-Devouring Beetles were originally located underground in the eighth layer, the moment they were teleported out, they quietly ended up beneath the ninth-layer altar, seemingly without being discovered by anyone else.

Han Li looked at the giant stone pillars flickering around the giant altar, and after a moment of hesitation, he still quietly issued an order to these Gold-Devouring Beetles.

Immediately, after a flash of golden light, the golden ball disintegrated and scattered, re-forming into thousands of Gold-Devouring Beetles that swarmed away.

As for the Ten-Thousand-Year Corpse Bear and "Hua Hua Tianqi" and the others on the surface, they clearly did not want to remain in this stalemate. From time to time, someone would strike fiercely at the giant stone pillars in the distance, wanting to destroy this array. However, except for the blood blade of the Corpse Bear, which could occasionally leave one or two shallow knife marks on the stone pillars, the other attacks hit the pillars without causing any damage at all.

Even the "milky-white giant hand" of "Hua Hua Tianqi," which seemed to have astonishing momentum, could only make these stone pillars sway slightly.

It was unknown what kind of material these stone pillars were refined from to be so hard.

Of course, if the Corpse Bear or the Hua Hua Tianqi possessed by the Long Meng Demon Concubine and the others had time to deal with a certain stone pillar slowly, it was not that there was no way to destroy it.

But the key was that whenever any of them had the intention to retreat, the two-headed giant wolf would immediately spit out several mouthfuls of black Qi without hesitation. Under the surging demonic Qi, it would sweep toward those who moved away from the altar, causing them to be startled and forced to turn back to deal with the demonic Qi with all their might.

They simply could not truly withdraw!

Han Li dealt with the attacks of the demonic Qi in a distracted manner while his eyes kept glancing left and right, seemingly wanting to find a way to escape.

At this moment, under the cover of Xuan Qingzi, five emerald-green rings had already been sacrificed into mid-air by the Seven Wonders Daoist.

The scholar's incantations never ceased, and with a flick of his ten fingers, one after another, magic arts struck the rings. The five rings emitted strange cries that grew large and small, and at the same time, they trembled slightly with flashing spiritual light.

The two-headed giant wolf spat out a large amount of black Qi, entangling the people who had just appeared in the air, and then it withdrew its gaze, staring back at "Hua Hua Tianqi" and the Ten-Thousand-Year Corpse Bear near the altar.

In this demon's mind, these two were the true great enemies.

"Hua Hua Tianqi" went without saying; Long Meng Demon Concubine and it had been fighting for this silver wolf body for so many years, and they knew each other like the back of their hands, so it was naturally extremely wary.

And the Corpse Bear that suddenly appeared and secretly launched a sneak attack, although it only had the magic power of the late Nascent Soul stage, the blood blade in its hand was extremely formidable. Not only was it not afraid of its demonic Qi, but it even had a faint restraining effect.

If it weren't for the fact that this Corpse Bear's cultivation was far inferior to this demon possessing the silver wolf body, it was very likely that it could break through the demonic Qi with its own strength alone.

How could this split soul of the Yuan Cha Saint Ancestor not pay close attention to this?

Actually, if it hadn't been for the fact that it took a risk at the eighth-layer palace to cast a great soul-bewitching divine ability, unexpectedly controlling that human female and accidentally obtaining the Dragon-Transforming Seal that controlled the ninth-layer altar array from her hands, it would never have appeared on this ninth layer. Instead, it would have long considered fleeing this Demon-Suppressing Tower before its demonic Qi was exhausted.

And now that it had opened the seal of this altar, although it was not yet completely successful and had only unsealed a tiny gap, as long as its four feet did not leave the altar, it had a steady stream of pure demonic Qi to replenish its body. Not only did it have the upper hand against so many cultivators, but even its originally exhausted demonic essence was slowly recovering.

As a result, this demon was even less willing to take risks. It just coldly fought steadily, waiting for the seal to be completely opened.

However, when the green light in the air began to exert its power, the wolf suddenly sensed a terrifying spiritual power familiar from the past. It couldn't help but be startled and looked up.

"Demon-Suppressing Ring."

As soon as the giant wolf saw the five emerald rings in the air, its eyes flashed with fear. The black wolf head roared earth-shakingly, and its mouth opened wide. Black light surged in its mouth, seemingly about to spit something out again.

But just at this moment, the Seven Wonders Daoist in the air had already finished casting his spell. After pointing a single hand at one of the emerald rings, he spat out the word "Suppress" with a solemn expression.

The sound was not loud, but the emerald ring immediately erupted with piercing light, flickered, and disappeared into the air.

The next moment, a buzzing sound came from above the giant wolf's head. A green Qi flashed out from the void, and then with a flicker, it strangely wrapped around the neck of the black wolf head, instantly restoring itself into a giant ring.

Runes emerged on the surface of the giant ring, and at the same time, it shrank rapidly.

The demonic Qi that the wolf head was originally about to spit out was immediately unable to exit, and it immediately emitted a painful wail.

In a panic, one wolf claw grabbed back at the ring, cold light flashing on the claw, seemingly wanting to crush the ring.

As a result, green light erupted, and after a muffled groan, the wolf claw was bounced away. The ring tightened a few more times, and the wailing sound from the giant wolf's mouth could no longer be emitted; it could only make low whimpering sounds, its eyes full of unbearable pain.

Seeing this scene, the humans and demons near the altar were overjoyed and immediately unleashed their divine abilities, attacking the demonic Qi one after another.

Sure enough, because the giant wolf could not attend to it, the power of the leaderless demonic Qi was greatly reduced, and it was scattered by them one after another. The Corpse Bear and Hua Hua Tianqi rushed toward the center.

When the Silver-Winged Nightcha and the Lion-Bird Beast also wanted to approach, they suddenly received several sound transmissions from the Corpse Bear. After looking at each other, they turned and shot toward the surrounding stone pillars.

Before they even approached these stone pillars, they simultaneously released gray soul-shackling threads and golden sound waves, aiming at one of the pillars and spitting at it together.

Xuan Qingzi and the Seven Wonders Daoist in the air were overjoyed at this. The old Daoist immediately poured all his magic power into his sword and slashed fiercely at the demonic Qi in front of him.

A giant sword light was slashed out, and where it struck, a clear path appeared in front.

At the same time, under the scholar's continuous pointing, the other four emerald rings also disappeared in a flash and appeared on the four limbs of the giant wolf.

As the four rings flashed with spiritual light and tightened simultaneously, the giant wolf could no longer stand on the altar. With a loud boom, it actually fell to the ground and could not get up.

Seeing this situation, Han Li blinked his eyes, and the "Five-Element Ring," an ancient treasure he obtained in the Void Heaven Palace back then, suddenly appeared in his mind.

Except for the difference in power, the Demon-Suppressing Ring that the Seven Wonders Daoist took out to easily bind the giant wolf looked so similar to that Five-Element Ring. Could it be that the Five-Element Ring back then was a replica of this Demon-Suppressing Ring?

Just at this moment, Xuan Qingzi suddenly shouted in shock and anger:

"Master Bear, how dare you?"

Then, the old Daoist swung the precious sword in his hand, which turned into a yellow rainbow and shot directly above the demonic Qi. The middle-aged scholar on the side ignored the giant wolf on the altar and turned into a ball of gray Qi, blurring, and disappeared into thin air.

It was only then that Han Li discovered that "Hua Hua Tianqi" and the white-furred Corpse Bear, after rushing into the demonic Qi, suddenly turned into a white and a green giant hand, respectively grabbing toward the black python and the silver giant lotus transformed by the Black Wind Flag in the air.

And that Madam Mu was entangled by her junior sister, unable to leave at all.

Seeing this scene, Han Li pursed his lips, frowned, and did not move. But on the other side, two escape lights "whooshed" out.

It was that woman Lin Lin Yinping and the Lingxi Peacock possessed by the Xu-surnamed youth, shooting through the air, with the same targets: the two spiritual treasures in the air.

As for that demon Gui Ling, it glanced sideways at Han Li, hesitated for a moment, and did not participate in the fight.

Spiritual light flashed wildly in the air, and various roaring sounds intertwined. The group of humans and demons who had just joined forces to deal with the Ancient Demon were now fighting fiercely for the two spiritual treasures in the blink of an eye.

Han Li's gaze fell on the altar, looking at the giant wolf that seemed to be tightly bound by the Demon-Suppressing Ring. Suddenly, his expression sank, his sleeves shook, and dozens of small golden swords shot out from his sleeves with a buzzing sound.
