Chapter 2116: Volume 10: Battle of the Demon Realm, Chapter 291: Spirit King and Meteorite Stone
When the Long Family Ancestor heard this, he only pondered for a moment before his escape light rose and he shot toward Han Li. After a few flashes, he appeared nearby with a gloomy expression.
On the other end, the young lady in feathered robes darted her beautiful eyes a few times before stamping her jade foot. With a flap of the flame wings behind her, she vanished into the void.
A moment later, a fluctuation appeared at Han Li's side, and the young lady in feathered robes appeared silently.
As for Bai Qi, after listening to Han Li's words, he only glanced over before continuing to remain indifferent.
"Brother Han, my life is in your hands. I hope you have some trump cards to counter this Demon Race Saint Ancestor. Otherwise, we are truly just throwing eggs at a rock," the young lady in feathered robes appeared and said to Han Li with a bitter smile.
"Trump cards? You two couldn't have kept nothing back, right? And have the two Fellow Daoists discovered that although this Demon Race Saint Ancestor's momentum was astonishing at the beginning, his subsequent attacks have all relied on the Black Demon Dagger in his hand, and he hasn't used any other demon arts or divine abilities?" Han Li, who had transformed into a giant ape, stared at the black-robed youth opposite him and said in a buzzing voice without turning his head.
"Brother Han, what do you mean by that..." The young lady in feathered robes jumped in her heart and was slightly startled.
"Fairy Ye, do not forget that this is the Spirit-Trapping Land where the Spirit-Washing Pool is located. I am afraid that this place is the most concentrated area of spiritual energy in the entire Demon Realm. Even if a Demon race member is a Saint Ancestor, I do not believe the other party is not suppressed by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth here while fighting someone," the giant ape said with a cold snort.
"Brother Han's words are correct. Even if he activates that Black Demon Dagger, he must first break the spiritual energy cage of this place before he can absorb the external demon energy to attack us. If I am not mistaken, this old demon's magic power here cannot be directly replenished; every time he uses some, he will have less. The Mysterious Heaven Treasure in his hand is likely the same. As long as we don't let it continue to absorb external demon energy, with just the power of the Black Demon Dagger itself, it's not impossible for us to resist it by joining forces," the Long Family Ancestor seemed touched by Han Li's words, and after his gloomy expression eased slightly, he replied calmly.
The young lady in feathered robes listened to the two's words, and after her thoughts raced, she felt it made sense, and most of her fear vanished.
At this moment, the black-robed youth heard Han Li and the others' conversation and smiled lightly with narrowed eyes.
"Not bad, not bad! To be able to see these things in such a short time, you three are likely the most top-tier existences among the human race's Body Integration stage cultivators. This Saint Ancestor is indeed somewhat suppressed in cultivation here, and some divine abilities and treasures are not convenient to activate directly. But what do you think a Mysterious Heaven Treasure is, and how can you block me from using it to absorb the True Demon Energy from outside? By the way, as for that Spirit Race brat, I haven't made a move against you all this time because I sensed the aura of an old friend on you. What is the Spirit King's intention in sending you here? Don't tell me he intentionally wanted to deliver a pseudo-immortal puppet with both hands?" The black-robed youth finished saying this to Han Li and the others, then his gaze moved to Bai Qi, and he asked coldly.
Hearing this question, the Long Family Ancestor and the others felt their hearts move, and their gazes "swished" and looked toward Bai Qi.
From the very beginning, this Spirit Race Holy Spirit had behaved very bizarrely. Since Han Li and the others had decided to join forces to fight the black-robed youth, they naturally had to clarify Bai Qi's true intentions first.
In the white light, although Bai Qi's face could not be seen clearly, after the light on his body flickered a few times, he finally spoke in a deep voice:
"When I came, the Lord of the clan did indeed give me a few instructions and planted a Spirit-Splitting Talisman in my body. Why don't I let the Lord talk to you personally?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Qi withdrew the white light, revealing his true appearance.
He was actually a middle-aged man wearing brocade clothes!
His face was ordinary, but his eyes were shining with silver light, and there was a pale purple spirit spot between his brows, flashing brilliantly.
The brocade clothes on his body were clearly extraordinary, not only printed with many silver spirit markings, but as he moved slightly, countless white lights flickered, looking very eye-catching.
"Hmph, that old monster of the Spirit Race has lived longer than this Saint Ancestor. I'd like to see what he has to say." The black-robed youth snorted and said indifferently.
Bai Qi smiled faintly and immediately patted his head with one hand.
After a light sound, the top of his head opened, and a silver talisman flew out.
The talisman shook in the wind, releasing ten thousand rays of light, transforming into a phantom a zhang tall.
Seeing this, Han Li narrowed his eyes and saw the phantom clearly; it was an old man in white robes with a crane-like appearance and a child-like face.
The Long Family Ancestor and the young lady in feathered robes saw this scene and couldn't help but exchange glances, their thoughts racing, but neither dared to act rashly.
No matter how bad the situation was, it was just fighting to the death with this Demon Race Saint Ancestor. Now that the situation seemed to be changing, they naturally couldn't ask for more.
After the old man's phantom flew out, it hovered quietly beside Bai Qi. After scanning the surroundings, it finally fell on the black-robed youth opposite, its expression calm.
"Fellow Daoist Yuan Yan, long time no see. I didn't expect to see you, one of the three great ancestors, in this place. Why are the two Fellow Daoists, Mie Qing and Wu Chang, who were originally responsible for guarding the island, not here?" The white-robed old man's phantom clearly contained a wisp of soul thought from someone, and after bowing to the youth, he actually asked like a real person.
This Spirit Race Mahayana existence actually knew this Yuan Yan Saint Ancestor.
And when Han Li heard the word "Ancestor," even though he had always been calm, he couldn't help but change his expression.
The Long Family Ancestor and the young lady in feathered robes felt their hearts sink to the very bottom.
"Mie Qing and Wu Chang have other matters; for the past thousand years, this island has been monitored by this Saint Ancestor. You, Spirit King, suddenly sent a few juniors deep into this place; it seems you haven't given up on those two spirit objects. But you should be very clear that sending mere Body Integration existences here is simply seeking their own deaths. But if you, Spirit King, were to escort them personally, that would be another matter," the black-robed youth saw the white-robed old man's phantom, his pupils shrank slightly, and he said coldly.
"If your Yuan race hadn't run to the Spirit race's territory to fight so fiercely, perhaps I would truly be interested in making a trip. Having not seen each other for so many years, I am also very curious if Daoist Yuan Yan's Nightmare Demon Art has had any further breakthroughs. Now that I am occupied with my avatar, I can only let these juniors take some risks. But looking at it now, except for Bai Qi, everyone else has met with misfortune. Daoist, your move was perhaps a bit too fast!" the Spirit King said calmly.
"I've left one of your Spirit Race alive until now; that's already giving you face. If you keep talking nonsense, don't blame me for not giving you a chance and exterminating him as well." The black-robed youth's face sank, looking as if he would make another move if they didn't agree.
"Fellow Daoist Yuan Mo's temper hasn't changed much compared to tens of thousands of years ago. Very well, I will get straight to the point. I want to use something to exchange for a Spirit Purifying Lotus and a chance to enter the Spirit Cleansing Pool for the juniors of my clan. I wonder what Fellow Daoist thinks? Originally, I wanted to make this deal with Fellow Daoists Mie Qing and Wu Chang, but I didn't expect it to be you!" The Spirit King phantom sighed, looking somewhat helpless.
"Haha, to think the Spirit King would also joke! You think Yuan would believe such words? Not to mention that Mie Qing and Wu Chang are not here, even if they were, they wouldn't make any deals with people from the Spirit Realm. Very well, you've finished speaking. This Saint Ancestor will send your junior on his way first. As for this wisp of your soul, I will accept it without ceremony." The black-robed youth didn't believe it at all, laughed wildly, and shook the giant sword in his hand again.
The Long Family Ancestor and the young lady in feathered robes saw this and their expressions changed abruptly, and they couldn't help but mobilize their magic power.
Han Li, who had transformed into a giant ape, also narrowed his eyes, and golden light flowed over his body.
But at this moment, the Spirit King phantom didn't panic and spat out something that shocked the black-robed youth:
"What, Fellow Daoist Yuan Yan, could it be that you don't even want that Meteorite Stone?"
"What? Meteorite Stone? You have this thing? No, what exactly do you know?" The black-robed youth gasped, but immediately remembered something, and asked back with a cold voice, his face full of ferocity!
"Hehe, what I know is far more than what you guess. After all, unlike other Mahayana existences in the Spirit Realm, I have experienced several times more years than them, so naturally, I would know some things they don't know at all. With this stone, the great tribulation facing your Demon Race can be delayed for at least another ten thousand years. I don't need to say anything more about its preciousness. Fellow Daoist, think carefully before answering me." The Spirit King revealed a profound expression and said confidently.
The black-robed youth's expression was uncertain, and he hovered motionless above the pond.
Han Li, the Long Family Ancestor, and the others heard this conversation and were naturally suspicious, each guessing the true meaning of the words just now.
"Good, very good. A long time ago, I guessed that your background was unusual and that you weren't from an ordinary background in the Spirit Realm. Now that you know the secret matters of the Holy Realm so clearly, it seems my initial guess was correct. It's just a pity..." The black-robed youth suddenly relaxed his expression and shook his head lightly.
"What's a pity? Could it be that you don't know how important the Meteorite Stone is to your Demon Race?" The old man frowned, feeling somewhat strange...
"What's a pity is that you met me today, and you shouldn't have told me about this!" The black-robed youth's mouth curled into a bizarre smile, and the next moment, he suddenly slashed the black giant sword toward Bai Qi, while his other giant hand grabbed toward the white-robed old man's phantom. ===== CHAPTER 2117 =====
