Chapter 61: Sealing Altar
"Let's negotiate a deal."
This female Great Demon spoke, her voice crisp, like the call of an oriole, melodious and pleasant, without a trace of Weird aura, as if she were a fairy descended from the Nine Heavens Saint Realm.
"It seems I was right; the location of the seal is here."
Li Heng smiled slightly.
He did not take up the female Great Demon's words.
The female Great Demon frowned.
"Which noble family are you from?"
"Perhaps I might know your elders."
Even now, the female Great Demon still believed Li Heng was a member of a noble family, possessing bloodline abilities. Otherwise, it would be impossible for his strength to be so Terror-inducing, capable of forcefully suppressing her manifestation.
Li Heng ignored her, looking instead at the pool water.
The water surface was very calm, like a bright mirror, quietly reflecting the bright moon in the sky, cradling it in its embrace; it looked very beautiful. But he always felt a deathly stillness.
There were no living creatures within it.
This pool... is it stagnant water?
Ignored once again, the female Great Demon was cold as ice. Isn't it just relying on that Dharma Aspect? A mere junior actually daring to ignore her like this?
If only she were not still trapped within the seal.
She truly wanted to suppress and kill him directly.
"I think there might be something at the bottom of this pool, like an altar, an altar that seals something."
Li Heng smiled slightly.
At this moment, the female Great Demon no longer held onto any wishful thinking; this junior from some unknown noble family must have discovered her Seal Land.
So, she simply stopped pretending.
"So what if there is? Although this pool is not large, it is bottomless, and the depths contain extremely cold Yin Qi, even condensing cold-poisonous Yin water. Do you dare to go in?"
The female Great Demon spoke mockingly.
"You are a noble family disciple, you should know the severity of cold-poisonous Yin water. Let alone a mere Bone Refining realm, even if you were promoted to the True Qi Realm, you couldn't withstand a single drop!"
Li Heng was surprised; is this cold-poisonous Yin water that powerful?
Fortunately, he didn't need to withstand it.
"Why would I dive in?"
He gave a disdainful smile and directly commanded the manifested Great Sun Dharma Image to condense Sun True Fire, flying toward the pool.
Although the quantity was not large, the essence of Sun True Fire was extremely high; even if this pool was bottomless and contained so-called cold-poisonous Yin water, it was still quite easy to evaporate it.
The Sun True Fire submerged into the water, and the Yin Qi within began to assault the Sun True Fire. But as everyone knows, Yin Qi is the fuel for Sun True Fire, so the Sun True Fire continuously burned the Yin Qi, actually igniting within the water, becoming fire in water.
And because the Sun True Fire possessed a Terror-inducing high temperature, very soon, thick white steam was evaporating from the pool, like a hot spring bath.
Very quickly, it evaporated a layer of the pool's water.
The female Great Demon widened her eyes, like almonds.
She was stunned.
What kind of fire is this? The Ma Family's Yang Extreme True Flame, or the Bai Family's Burning Heaven Fire? But that makes no sense.
The Yang Extreme True Flame is more than enough for driving away demons but lacks dominance; it is impossible for it to have such a high temperature. And the Burning Heaven Fire lacks the ability to drive away demons but is too dominant; it could not restrain her.
But this current fire, while restraining her, also possessed a Terror-inducing high temperature; if it landed on a human body, I fear they would be reduced to ashes within a few breaths!
Is this kind of fire cheating?
Could it be... the noble families' marriage alliance plan succeeded? The brat in front of me is a mixed-blood of the Ma Family and the Bai Family. So, he created a Terror-inducing fire that possesses the advantages of both families?
The more the female Great Demon thought, the more she felt it was possible.
"Wait, I have an acquaintance in the Bai Family. Perhaps they are also your elder, so stop, do not burn anymore."
She spoke quickly, wanting to make Li Heng stop.
Li Heng turned a deaf ear.
What Bai Family, what acquaintance, all nonsense; what on earth is this female Great Demon thinking? He is just an ordinary person, seeking only "self-preservation" in this chaotic world.
Slaughter everyone who is his enemy.
That is "self-preservation" success.
Under the illumination of the Great Sun Dharma Aspect, the female Great Demon could do nothing at all. Soon, she witnessed the extremely cold pool being forcefully evaporated dry by Li Heng's Sun True Fire.
"Look, where is there any cold-poisonous Yin water now?"
Li Heng looked at the female Great Demon and smiled slightly.
The Great Demon's mouth twitched, and she fell silent.
He placed his Divine Dao clone outside the pool to guard against the unexpected; if any variables occurred, he would immediately activate Shrinking Ground to an Inch and take his true self away.
As for his true self, he leaped and jumped into the pool. Well, there was no water now; figuratively speaking, it was a hole in the ground, vertical and downward, like a water well.
Soon, Li Heng landed on the ground.
Because of the high temperature of the Sun True Fire, the ground beneath the pool had also been scorched until it cracked, the ground shattering into pieces, without any moisture.
If this were truly a water well, I fear it had suffered a ten-year drought.
Without any bells and whistles, Li Heng saw an altar directly, which seemed to be a Node of some sealing Array. On top of the altar, there was also a circular groove, possibly for placing that Yin Source Bead.
Because of the missing Yin Source Bead, the seal had loosened. Only then could this female Great Demon manifest great power, interfere with the world, and even shroud the Sanshan Gathering with a Ghost Domain.
"Come out, I know you are watching from the side."
"You are hoping I will mess up and break this altar, causing the sealing Array to have problems, allowing you to break the seal and come out, aren't you?" Li Heng smiled slightly, his voice echoing.
In the shadows, the phantom of the Great Demon walked out.
She frowned; this junior is truly troublesome. Originally, she wanted to gamble on this junior not understanding the Array, and then accidentally release her by making a mistake.
Now it seems there is no point in gambling or not.
"Actually, the way to reseal me is to put that Yin Source Bead back and let it continue to absorb my Yin energy; you are welcome to try it."
The Great Demon said something astonishing, stating the method directly.
Li Heng frowned; a ploy to confuse the enemy?
"I don't think that's necessarily true. Sending the Yin Source Bead back, I always feel like it's a sheep entering a tiger's den," he said with a faint smile. His Shinto avatar was still using that Yin Source Bead, and unless absolutely necessary, he did not want to put it back.
"Then you can try other methods."
"With the opening of the Node and the arrival of the Wave, without the Yin Source Bead to suppress me, I will soon be able to break the seal, and by then you will be the sinner of the Sanshan Gathering and Bei'an City."
The Great Demon said coldly.
"You don't need to use Morality to coerce me; my moral bottom line is very flexible. Anyway, I wasn't the one who took this Yin Source Bead out in the first place, so how could I be considered a sinner?"
Li Heng smiled lightly, not caring about the threat at all.
"Then just wait; I can afford to wait."
"Once I break the seal in the future, I will surely turn the surrounding hundred miles into a Ghost Domain! As for you, you junior look quite handsome, you are qualified to be my dog."
This female Great Demon suddenly laughed.
Li Heng did not care and pondered in his heart.
The operating principle of the Yin Source Bead is to absorb Yin energy and weaken the sealed target. Perhaps his Shinto avatar could replace the Yin Source Bead; his avatar was a heavy consumer of Yin energy after all.
He directly summoned his Shinto avatar.
