Chapter 1684

This silver-robed old man was naturally that Saint-rank Multi-Eyed Demon. Net

That day, in order to avenge the death of his beloved son, he spared no effort in sending out his right-hand men, the two high-tier demon beasts Jiuye and Wuqi, to search for the murderer.

As a result, Jiuye, because it tracked alone, disturbed the Cave Spirit possessed by the Outer Heaven Demon Lord and was killed in one blow.

Although Wuqi led many demon beasts to block Han Li and the others, because they were lured away in separate groups, it and two other subordinates were confused by the Shadow Puppets transformed from Han Li's Grade-A Origin Talismans and were likewise killed unexpectedly.

As for the remaining demon beasts, led by that small glazed beast, they were preparing to rush to the entrance of the Demon Gold Mountain Range to ambush Han Li and the others.

In this way, even though this Multi-Eyed Old Demon had many subordinates, he still did not know about the Ginseng Immortal.

Now, upon hearing this, he was naturally startled.

As for the other two, they were naturally the Iron-Winged Demon and another Saint-rank demon beast named Blood Arm.

Seeing that the Multi-Eyed Demon's expression did not look like a pretense, it was Blood Arm's turn to be greatly surprised.

A flash of blood light appeared in his eyes before he asked solemnly:

"What, Brother Duoyan's son has fallen? How come the two of us know nothing about this?"

"Hmph, is my child being harmed something glorious? Why should I make everyone know? Furthermore, you have both been busy these past few days; is it strange that you didn't know this news?" The Multi-Eyed Demon's expression sank, saying with a hint of sarcasm.

"Cough..., that was my mistake, fellow Daoist." The blood-robed person heard this, coughed lightly, and said somewhat awkwardly.

"No need to say more about other things. I am now quite interested in the Ginseng Immortal you mentioned; do the two fellow Daoists not want to say something?" The Multi-Eyed Demon said indifferently.

"Hehe, actually it's nothing, just a small Heaven and Earth spiritual object that broke into the mountain range. Even if we don't say it, I think fellow Daoist will know about this before long." The Iron-Winged Demon chuckled, speaking seemingly casually.

"Oh, I wonder what kind of Heaven and Earth spiritual object could make both Brother Tie and fellow Daoist Blood Arm so tempted. You even sent out incarnations and bloodlines to fight for it. You say it's unrelated; do you really think I can't find out the reason? Come here!" The Multi-Eyed Demon's expression sank, and he suddenly clapped his hands "Pa-Pa" twice, letting out a sharp shout.

Black light flashed outside the palace, and a thin man wearing green armor walked in, walking a few steps to the silver-robed old man and bowing respectfully with both fists:

"Greetings, Master, what are your orders?"

"Go immediately and investigate the origin of a spiritual object called the Ginseng Immortal, and where it is currently located." The Multi-Eyed Demon ordered coldly.

"Yes, Master." The green-armored man replied without hesitation, then black light flashed on his body, transforming into a dark light that shot out from the gate.

The Iron-Winged Demon and Blood Arm saw this, one remaining silent and the other wearing a smile, seemingly not caring about the Multi-Eyed Demon's actions.

The silver-robed old man glanced back, and seeing their expressions, his look became even gloomier. He snorted lightly and spoke again:

"Alright. Let's stop talking about the Ginseng Immortal; let's talk about serious business. A few days ago, I received news that the interface passage we had blocked again seems to have some anomalies. It seems the Holy Realm side is not giving up and is taking action again."

"Interface passage? Wasn't it split open by the Holy Ancestor's sword back then? How could they dare to take action again?" The blood-robed person's expression changed slightly, appearing surprised.

"What, Brother Blood Arm doesn't believe my words!" The Multi-Eyed Demon glanced sideways and said.

"The interface passage is of such great importance, how could Blood not believe it." The blood-robed person laughed and replied.

"If there are other Holy Ancestors on the Holy Realm side, and they can also hold Profound Heaven Treasures, it is not impossible to open the passage again." The Iron-Winged Demon touched his chin, appearing to be pondering.

"Impossible. Back then, the Holy Ancestor was in extreme danger, seeing that we had no way out and were surrounded by pursuers, so he had no choice but to sacrifice the Profound Heaven Treasure and suffer great damage to his own cultivation to break open the interface. Even if other Holy Ancestors have Profound Heaven Treasures, why would they make such a sacrifice for no reason?" The blood-robed person denied it without hesitation.

"That's not necessarily true. If there are truly two or more Holy Ancestors on that side, and they take turns attacking the passage with Profound Heaven Treasures, perhaps they could truly open the interface without any damage." The Multi-Eyed Demon's eyes flashed a few times before he said solemnly.

Upon hearing this, Blood Arm and the Iron-Winged Demon were startled, and then their expressions became extremely ugly.

"Forget it, the anomaly in the passage is still very slight; even if it can be opened, it will be a matter for many years later. Whether to fight or flee, let the Holy Ancestor decide. She is likely to wake up at any moment." The Iron-Winged Demon sighed long and chuckled bitterly.

"That is indeed the case. With our divine abilities, we are fundamentally unable to stop the changes in the interface passage. However, the Holy Ancestor might have a way to stop it." The blood-robed person said with a boost in spirit.

The Multi-Eyed Demon heard this, twisted his beard, and nodded, his lips moving as if he wanted to say something more.

But at this moment, the pitch-black stone gate, about ten feet high, in front of the three suddenly erupted with light, and countless pink runes emerged, flickering incessantly.

"The Holy Ancestor has woken up!"

Seeing the anomaly of the stone gate, the blood-robed person exclaimed.

Immediately, the three Saint-rank demon beasts showed expressions of surprise and joy, standing with their hands at their sides toward the stone gate.

The stone gate's light flowed, lasting for a full cup of tea's time before the spiritual light finally retracted.

At the same time, those bright runes dimmed in an instant, finally vanishing without a trace.

Seeing this, the three demons stared at the stone gate without blinking, showing no signs of anxiety.

The giant stone gate remained silent for a time, showing no further anomalies.

After a full hour had passed, suddenly with a "Creak," the stone gate opened by itself.

The three demons were all boosted in spirit.

"Oh, the three of you are actually all here. It really is worth your effort. Come in first." A woman's voice suddenly drifted from behind the stone gate, extremely melodious and pleasant, with an indescribable softness. After hearing it, one couldn't help but feel the interest to see the true face of the owner.

And behind the half-open stone gate, sheets of pink light mist flickered, appearing extremely bizarre.

"Congratulations to the Holy Ancestor for waking up; we will now pay our respects to Your Highness." The Multi-Eyed Demon represented the other two, bowing and replying with extreme respect.

Afterward, the three demons suppressed their excitement and walked toward the stone gate with large strides.

But as soon as they stepped into the stone gate, they felt a flash of pink mist before their eyes, and they actually entered an unfamiliar world.

The sky was azure and cloudless, the ground was emerald and boundless, stretching into a line in the distance; this world seemed infinite.

And in the extreme distance of the grass, there was a giant flower tree about a hundred feet high.

This tree was entirely pale purple, and its branches were covered with an unknown type of pink spiritual flower, resembling giant lotuses, each the size of a bowl.

Beneath this tree, there was a white figure, beautiful as if not of the mortal world, quietly existing there.

Although that giant flower tree seemed extremely far away and the woman was facing away from the three, this graceful back view was enough to make most men in the world go crazy and obsessed.

The three demons saw this woman and simultaneously bowed from afar.

"Since you've come, come closer to speak." The woman chuckled softly, and one jade arm elegantly raised, actually plucking a pink giant flower within reach above her head, then throwing it backward seemingly casually.

With a "Puff" sound, the pink giant flower just spun, emitting a muffled sound as it exploded, transforming into a sheet of pink mist that rolled upward.

The three demons felt the pink light flash before their eyes again, the surrounding scenery blurred, and the next moment they actually appeared less than ten feet away from that giant flower tree.

The three were startled, but then surprised and happy, hurriedly bowing again.

"Rise. You have followed me for so many years; you should know that I don't like too many formalities." The woman did not turn back, but her voice was extremely gentle, making people feel admiration after hearing it.

"Many thanks, Holy Ancestor. Congratulations to Your Highness for the full recovery of your divine abilities!" The three demons did not dare to be negligent, bowing again before rising.

"Full recovery is out of the question; I currently have only a small fraction of my previous magic power. The remaining cultivation cannot be recovered just by sleeping and meditating; I must borrow the power of external objects." The woman sighed lightly, appearing somewhat helpless.

"External objects?" Upon hearing this, the silver-robed old man and the others couldn't help but look at each other.

"Correct, and not ordinary external objects. But this Spirit Realm is an interface no less than our Holy Realm; I think there should be hope of finding them." The white-robed woman murmured, raising her head to look at the flowers on the giant tree, appearing somewhat uncertain.

"Your Highness, just speak. No matter what it is, as long as it truly exists in the Spirit Realm, your subordinates will definitely find it." The Iron-Winged Demon suddenly clasped his fists, saying with certainty.

The other two demons also expressed their loyalty.

"Hehe, I accept your intentions. But this is not our Holy Realm. Although you are already Saint-rank existences, the people of the Spirit Realm with low cultivation cannot see through your identities. But if you encounter existences with similar magic power, there is no guarantee you won't expose your identities. When that happens, you won't even be able to protect yourselves, let alone find things for me. It is better for me to go out personally." The woman pondered for a moment before making her decision.

"Your Highness wants to go out personally?"

"Absolutely not! Your Highness's cultivation has not yet recovered; what if you encounter an existence of the same rank!"

"Your Highness must think twice."

The three demons heard the woman's words and were shocked, repeatedly persuading her. All of them appeared loyal to the woman.

"Rest assured. The chance of encountering someone of the same rank as me in the Spirit Realm is extremely slim. Cultivation reaching our level generally only hides in caves to cultivate, to deal with various heavenly tribulations. How could they walk around outside easily? Furthermore, even if I only have a small fraction of my magic power, encountering an existence of the same rank might not be enough to defeat the enemy, but escaping is more than enough. How could existences like us, who might break through the final step at any moment, be easily killed by others?" The white-robed woman said leisurely.
