Chapter 1922: First Encounter with a Demon Venerable

"Even so, this place is not too far from there, and Daoist Li should have returned by now. Could it be that he encountered some trouble on the way?" Venerable Blue raised his hand to touch the demonic patterns on his cheeks and muttered thoughtfully.

"Encountered trouble? How is that possible! With Old Monster Li's abilities, unless he encounters a Body Integration existence of the human race, how would other human cultivators dare to provoke him?" The bald high-tier demon flicked his meat whiskers a few times and shook his head repeatedly.

"That's not necessarily true. There are quite a few secret treasures among the humans that possess the astonishing power to fight across realms, or several late-stage Void Refinement cultivators who are proficient in joint techniques are also quite tricky." Venerable Blue chuckled and said.

"Now that the human strongholds in this area are all surrounded by us, how could there be such a coincidence." The bald demon laughed, looking dismissive.

And just as the words fell, suddenly a low sound came from this demon, making the two demons stunned.

But the bald demon immediately waved one hand, and with a turn of black light, a white, bone-like magic disk appeared in his hand. He tapped it lightly with a finger.

Immediately, a transparent fluctuation spread out, and white light flashed on the surface of the disk, revealing an old man's face that was as calm as water.

It was exactly the Old Monster Li they were just discussing!

"Brother Li, you didn't return on time, and instead used the Luosen Demon Tool to contact the two of us, what is the meaning of this?" The bald demon said somewhat unhappily to the old man's face on the disk.

"Correct. Even we don't have many spare Demon Illusion Stones consumed by this magic tool. If Brother Li uses this object recklessly, it is truly somewhat inappropriate." Seeing that the old man was not safe and sound, Venerable Blue's face relaxed, but he also said with some anger.

"Hmph, the two Daoist friends don't know. My beloved grandson was killed by human cultivators not long ago. I am currently chasing the murderer. However, these people who made the move might have Body Integration existences of the human race, and I am not necessarily able to avenge this grudge alone. I need the two Daoist friends to come over and help me. After the matter is done, I am willing to give half of all the gains from this Holy Sacrifice to the two Daoist friends as a reward." The single-horned old man said with fierce light flashing in his eyes, looking like he was gritting his teeth.

"What, there is such a thing. However, how does Brother Li know that the people who made the move are Body Integration existences of the human race?" The bald demon was startled, his whiskers curling back, and asked.

"Hmph, I have already been to the place where my grandson was killed. My beloved grandson and his subordinates were killed without even a trace of fighting aura being revealed. How could ordinary Void Refinement cultivators do this? Moreover, although the murderer has left for a while, the possibility of being a Body Integration existence of the human race is very high." The single-horned old man replied with a twitching mouth.

"If so, it is indeed possible. However, Brother Li, do you know the exact number of these human cultivators?" Venerable Blue also asked solemnly.

"Hmm, I have sensed it. There are only the residual auras of two humans." The single-horned old man replied without thinking.

"If so, the three of us should definitely have no problem. But the key is that we ourselves have important tasks, what if something goes wrong during the pursuit, I am afraid Lord Saint Ancestor will blame us." The bald demon hesitated.

"Since the humans have Body Integration existences leaving the stronghold and appearing here, there is no need to ask, they must have some plans for our Holy Race. If we can kill one or two such Body Integration existences and destroy their plans, Lord Saint Ancestor will only reward us heavily, and will not blame you. Moreover, the three of us Venerables working together, those human Body Integration existences might only be one person, even if it is a Great Completion Body Integration existence, we can fight, what risk is there?" The single-horned old man gritted his teeth and increased the benefits significantly.

"Oh, it seems Venerable Li is really eager for revenge, even taking out this treasure. If so, it is not impossible for me, Mi, to make a move once. Brother Blue, what do you think?" The bald demon's eyes lit up, and he was greatly moved.

"Daoist Li, can you be sure there are only two humans?" Venerable Blue's face was also somewhat moved, but he asked extremely cautiously again.

"Hmph, is Daoist Blue not at ease with Li's ability? If there is any error in the number, I will naturally not force the two Daoist friends to take action." The single-horned old man snorted, anger appearing on his face, but he suppressed it with great effort.

"Good, with your words, I am at ease. The two of us will rush to meet Daoist Li immediately. But Daoist must not lose track of those two human cultivators." Venerable Blue said with a trace of a smile on his face.

"Those two human cultivators since they killed my descendants with my bloodline, unless they fly a hundred million miles away in one breath, otherwise even if they run to the ends of the earth, they cannot escape my secret tracking technique." The single-horned old man laughed ferociously, with a very confident tone.

Then, white light flashed on the disk, and the phantom of this Venerable Li dissipated, actually cutting off the connection on its own.

"Hehe, I said why Old Monster Li was so slow, it turns out he encountered such a thing. This is also understandable, if my only descendant was also killed by someone, I would also definitely capture the murderer alive, torture him for a year or half a year before killing him." The bald demon sneered.

"With our cultivation, it is basically impossible to have descendants again, so naturally, we value the original bloodline more. If there were many descendants, it would be fine. Like Old Monster Li who only has one descendant, it is not very common among us. No wonder he is so furious this time, not hesitating to bleed so much." Venerable Blue also smiled and said.

"It's only two humans, it should be no problem. Since we have promised Old Monster Li, we should naturally do our best. Let's go!"

Venerable Blue nodded, and with a shake of his arms, blue electric arcs crackled, actually turning into a pair of blue meat wings.

These wings were ferocious, not only covered with blue bone spurs but also countless electric arcs entwined on them, as if a thunder god had descended.

This demon flapped its wings, and amidst the continuous thunder, it shot out. A blue electric arc flashed in the void and disappeared, and when it appeared again, it had already reached several hundred feet away.

The bald demon saw this, chuckled, shook his sleeves, and a mass of red light shot out. After circling, it turned into a mass of crimson clouds, wrapping his figure within.

Then red light flashed, and the red cloud chased after the electric arc like lightning.

One after the other, they escaped over a hundred miles in the blink of an eye, and finally disappeared from the nearby void without a trace.

And the single-horned old man in another place did not stop his escape light to wait for his two companions at all, but used some secret technique to increase his escape speed by another thirty percent.

Because this Demon Venerable knew very well that although he could temporarily lock onto the opponent's position due to the bloodline secret technique, time naturally had certain limits, or once the opponent noticed something unusual, or simply used some transmission array to escape a hundred million miles away, he might lose the target.

So he would not relax at all before catching up to the target.

Anyway, he had reinforcements behind him, even if the target was truly very tricky and could not be killed alone, he could still easily hold them back.

Thinking this way, the single-horned old man continued to chase down with a chest full of anger.

And at this time, Han Li naturally didn't know all this and was still on his way to Yitian City with Fairy Yin Guang.

Because they were not fighting or fleeing for their lives, although their escape speed was not slow, compared to the three Demon Venerables behind, they were naturally more than a notch behind.

As time passed bit by bit, the distance between the two sides was naturally closing bit by bit.

A day and a night later, when Han Li was chatting with Fairy Yin Guang about matters related to the four major sects of Yitian City, suddenly his expression changed. He shook his sleeves, and a silver ruler appeared in a flash, turning into a giant ruler shadow over ten feet long, and slashed toward the back.

"Puff," a giant black stick also probed out from the void there, and collided with it solidly.

A heaven-shaking, earth-shattering loud noise!

A dazzling halo suddenly appeared, and an astonishing fluctuation that seemed capable of breaking the void spread out, as if the entire void was collapsing.

Fairy Yin Guang was startled, her figure transformed from the white cloud, revealing a look of shock and suspicion as she looked toward the place where the fluctuation erupted.

Han Li narrowed his eyes, and his expression returned to calm. Then he raised his hand and beckoned.

"Swish," the silver ruler broke through the void and appeared in his palm again.

The dazzling halo faded, and finally, all fluctuations dissipated. The figure of the single-horned old man appeared in the void there.

Only at this time, his body had turned five or six feet tall, holding a pitch-black stick in one hand, staring fiercely at Han Li.

"Demon Venerable!"

Fairy Yin Guang swept her divine sense over the opponent, and her jade face was startled. Without hesitation, she pinched a spell with one hand, and silver light flowed on her body, from which two silver hooks emerged.

Cold light flashed, one blade engraved with a white crescent moon, and one engraved with a crimson sun.

The two weapons flickered, and countless stars appeared and disappeared nearby, clearly an extraordinary treasure.

Han Li looked at the single-horned old man, his eyes flashed, and without a word, he fiercely slapped his own chest.

"Bang," a muffled sound!

His body flashed with golden light, and he opened his mouth, actually spitting out a cyan gas mass mixed with a wisp of black silk.
