Chapter 2050: Soul Sealing

"Hmm, but to be on the safe side, someone still needs to go and investigate. Elder Hui, I'll trouble you with this matter." The Long family ancestor pondered for a moment, then said to the black-robed man beside him.

"This is a small matter. I can go and return in half a day." The man surnamed Hui nodded upon hearing this, black light flashed on his body, and he turned into a long rainbow and flew away.

"Now, I still have some things to ask you two. If you answer honestly, naturally there will be no lack of benefits for you. If you have half a word of falsehood, you should know the consequences." The Long family ancestor finally turned his gaze to the two Demon race members and said calmly.

"Senior, please ask. The two juniors will definitely know everything and say everything." The Demon race man felt a shiver in his heart and responded immediately.

The Demon race elder also didn't dare to breathe, looking respectful.

"How far is Blood Crow City from here? Besides this city, what is the nearest city? Also, what is your City Lord's name, and what is his specific cultivation level?" The Long family ancestor asked in one breath.

Fortunately, although there were many questions, none of them were taboos or things that needed to be hidden, so after the Demon race man felt a slight chill in his heart, he immediately replied one by one:

"Reporting to the senior, Blood Crow City is about a hundred thousand miles away from here. The nearest other city is probably Night Repair City. However, to get there, it will take at least two months at the fastest. As for our City Lord, he is Lord Bing Qianren, and he is probably at the mid-stage Demon Venerable level."

"Mid-stage Demon Venerable, his cultivation is not weak. What is the situation in Blood Crow City now? Is there a teleportation array to other cities, or is there any other way to bypass the beast tide in the east?" The Long family ancestor nodded and continued to ask.

"Our city is currently under martial law to prevent a sudden attack by Butterfly-Tailed Beasts. But if you seniors want to go, there is absolutely no problem. As for the teleportation array, there is none. Our city is too small and does not meet the conditions for setting up a fixed teleportation array. Of course, there are ways to bypass the beast tide, but the time spent is probably far more than a dozen days. It would be more appropriate for you seniors to wait for the beast tide to pass on its own before continuing on the road." The Demon race man hesitated for a moment, but honestly replied one by one.

"No matter how much time it takes, tell me the way to bypass the beast tide first. Whether it is appropriate or not, I will judge for myself. Also, you should have a map of the vicinity, right? Take it out and let me copy a copy." The Long family ancestor said expressionlessly.

"Yes, senior, the junior spoke too much just now! The beast tide in the east affects a large area. If you want to bypass it, you have to pass through the Withered Leaf Forest in the south, or the grassland in the north..." The Demon race man's expression was startled, and he didn't hesitate at all, speaking quickly, and finally took out a pitch-black crystal stone from his arms and handed it to the Long family ancestor.

The Long family ancestor took the black crystal stone and didn't stand on ceremony, taking out a white crystal stone and copying all the contents inside.

This kind of thing, similar to the Spirit Realm's jade slip, was specially collected by the Long family before entering the Demon Realm.

Their functions and usage methods were similar to ordinary jade slips. However, to activate this item, the magic power needed to be mixed with a certain amount of demonic energy.

But this bit of demonic energy was nothing to people like Han Li who practiced demonic arts, and it was no problem for others who possessed Pseudo-Demon Beads.

Therefore, in order not to be suspected by the Demon race, the group had long been distributed a batch of such Demon Realm items.

Thus, after the Long family ancestor finished copying the map, he threw the crystal stone to the others, letting Saintess Qianqiu and the others copy it as well.

With a detailed map of the vicinity, they could naturally study various ways to avoid the beast tide seriously.

As a result, everyone, including Han Li, secretly studied it, but couldn't help but frown, feeling it was very tricky.

"Fellow Daoist Long, if there is really a Butterfly-Tailed Beast tide in the east, it seems we really can't bypass it. Why don't we stay in the vicinity and wait for the beast tide to pass before continuing on our way. Anyway, it's only a dozen days of delay, which is not urgent for us. As for that Blood Crow City, to be on the safe side, there is no need to go there." Just as Han Li was silently pondering, the voice transmission of the Long family ancestor suddenly sounded in his ears.

As a late-stage Body Integration Han Li, he was naturally one of the first people the Long family ancestor consulted.

"It is indeed not worth taking the risk to break through the eastern beast tide for this bit of time, but I think we should go to that Blood Crow City." Han Li pondered, but said so.

"Oh, Brother Han says so, he must have his own reasons. Can you enlighten me?" The Long family ancestor felt somewhat surprised upon hearing the answer.

"Brother Long is unwilling to enter the city, naturally because he is afraid of his identity being exposed. But Blood Crow City is only a small city, and it doesn't even have a teleportation array, so naturally, it is impossible to have too powerful restrictions. I think our disguise will not be seen through. And the reason I suggest going to Blood Crow City is mainly because we might stay in the Demon Realm for ten or even decades. In such a long time, contact with some Demon race members is inevitable. Although the Pseudo-Demon Bead can disguise our aura, just relying on a simple understanding of some information, I am afraid we will still reveal some flaws in our words and actions. Moreover, besides the Spirit-Washing Pool and the Spirit-Purifying Lotus, there should be other spiritual medicines in the Demon Realm that are difficult to find in the Spirit Realm, which are also very useful to us. Doesn't Brother Long want to take the opportunity to collect some?" Han Li replied via voice transmission without haste.

"Brother Han's words are reasonable. I will discuss it with Fellow Daoist Qianqiu and the others before deciding how to act." The Long family ancestor's expression changed for a while after hearing this, and finally, he seemed to be persuaded and replied.

"This is natural. I think the Spirit race fellow Daoists, including Saintess Qianqiu, want to enter Blood Crow City even more than we do." Han Li smiled slightly and replied meaningfully.

"Hehe, that is also true. There are indeed several rare materials that the Spirit race very much needs, which can only be found in large quantities in the Demon Realm." The Long family ancestor was stunned for a moment, but laughed out loud, and then stopped talking to Han Li and sent a voice transmission to Saintess Qianqiu.

Upon hearing the Long family ancestor's voice transmission, Saintess Qianqiu first showed a look of astonishment, but after the corners of her mouth curled up, she immediately discussed it enthusiastically via voice transmission.

The conversation between the two did not last long, and Saintess Qianqiu didn't even discuss it with the other Holy Spirits, giving the Long family ancestor a very clear reply.

Sure enough, on this matter, these Spirit race people had already made a decision secretly.

When the Long family ancestor replied to Han Li, it was determined that as long as the eastern beast tide was not fake, the group would temporarily enter Blood Crow City.

As for this decision, the feather-clad young girl and the disheveled Lin family man were also told later.

The two had no different opinions and looked indifferent.

The Demon race man and the Demon race elder naturally saw that Han Li and the others had been discussing something, but they honestly didn't dare to have any slight movement in place.

After all, so many "Demon Venerable" adults gathered here, and any one of them could take their lives without any effort.

In this way, half a day later, a breaking sound rang out in the sky, and a black light shot over. It was the black-robed man who had gone to scout the way, flying back.

"Brother Hui, was the trip smooth? Did you find out the situation of the beast tide?"

As soon as the escape light landed, the Long family ancestor immediately greeted him with a few steps and asked with a smile.

"Brother Long, there are indeed countless Butterfly-Tailed Beasts blocking the way in the east, occupying the entire eastern route. I am a bit ashamed, I didn't dare to get too close, just watched from afar for a while, and then flew back to report to you fellow Daoists." The black-robed man smiled bitterly and began to recount the results of his investigation.

Although the Long family ancestor had expected this, he still carefully asked several specific questions about the beast tide, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly raised his arm and flicked his finger.

"Pu pu" two muffled sounds!

Two golden rays shot out like lightning, flashed, and submerged into the bodies of the two Demon race members who were standing with their hands tied.

The two never expected that a Demon Venerable adult would suddenly attack them, and it was in a sneak attack manner. Almost at the same time the golden rays entered their bodies, they fell to the ground without any defense.

Except for Han Li, the expressions of the others couldn't help but change.

"Brother Long, what is the meaning of this? Don't we still need them to lead us to that Blood Crow City?" The hidden old scholar Cang Xing asked with a flicker of his eyes.

"The location of Blood Crow City, don't we already know it? Why do we need these two Demon race members to lead the way? Moreover, I didn't take their lives, just knocked them unconscious." The Long family ancestor said without changing his expression.

"Oh, could it be that Fellow Daoist Long wants to..." Cang Xing was also an existence that had opened its spiritual wisdom for I don't know how many tens of thousands of years, and immediately showed a look of sudden realization upon hearing this.

"That's right, rashly killing these two people might attract the attention of the City Lord of Blood Crow City. Although we don't need to fear a mere mid-stage Demon Venerable, it's better to avoid trouble. I intend to use the Soul-Sealing Great Art to temporarily seal the memories of these two people seeing us, and then release them back. As for us, we will disguise ourselves as ordinary Demon race members and mix into Blood Crow City. In this way, I think the Demon race in this city will not pay too much attention to us." The Long family ancestor said with confidence.

"This is indeed a good method, but is this Soul-Sealing Great Art of Brother Long reliable? Don't let that Demon Venerable in Blood Crow City see anything." The disheveled Lin family man asked with some worry.

"Hehe, this technique is a secret technique passed down by a great existence with great divine abilities in ancient times. Unless the Holy Ancestor of the Demon race checks it personally, it is absolutely impossible to discover any strangeness in the two. Otherwise, wouldn't I be painting a snake and adding feet?" The Long family ancestor laughed and said.

Seeing the Long family ancestor so confident, the others naturally felt relieved.

The Long family ancestor grabbed with one hand, immediately took the Demon race elder to his side, and spat out a cluster of purple light to completely cover his face.

Next, he stared at the elder's eyes with golden light flashing in his own eyes, and at the same time began to chant and cast spells.
