Chapter 208: Killing Intent in the Gumiao

"Not bad, not bad. The Yin-Yang Corpse Sha also had a place among the Demon Luo Sect's inner sect disciples, but I didn't expect them to die here. They probably didn't expect that the two of you were both bloodline awakeners, and the innate abilities you awakened were both quite powerful. Dying in your hands is not unjust." The blurred shadow emitted a low, strange laugh.

"Your Excellency, can the two of us leave now?" Brother Meng held the female corpse in his arms, endured the intense pain in his heart, and said to the blurred shadow with a blank expression.

"Hehe, why, afraid I won't keep my word?

Rest assured, although I am a madman, I am the most trustworthy. Since you survived, you can go. But this is limited to this one time. If I run into you next time, you will still die." The blurred shadow chuckled and waved his hand indifferently.

Seeing this, Brother Meng turned and left without a word. Li Tianqi struggled to get up and followed closely.

After the two walked out for more than ten zhang, Li Tianqi released a green wooden boat, took Brother Meng, and turned into a green light, flying toward the mountain range.

The blurred shadow stood on the rock, watching the distant escape light. He didn't rush, fished a bamboo slip from his bosom, opened it, and looked at it carefully. Then he sneered, his figure flickered slightly, and he actually followed openly. Although his pace seemed unhurried, every step was as if he were riding the wind, walking a zhang away lightly.

On the island in the center of the lake, a giant earthworm monster corpse lay on the ground in front of the stone house, covered in green blood. Nearby was a scene of a chaotic battle.

The stone house, which had originally been locked tightly, had its door wide open, and inside, one could vaguely see some simple furniture and some bookshelves.

The yellow-palace-dressed woman of the Four Symbols Sect and the pink-skirted woman of the Joyous Palace had already disappeared without a trace.

Deep in the mountain range, at the edge of a gray-white mist sea, two monks wearing monk robes suddenly drilled out from the nearby ground with yellow light.

One young monk was red-lipped and white-toothed, and one middle-aged monk was tall and thin.

They were exactly Yuan Tong and Yuan Ming of the Vajra Temple.

"Brother, restrictions have been set underground here as well. Using the earth-escape technique, it's impossible to pass through at all, and even the second-rank earth-escape talisman was used, but it had no effect?" The young monk looked at Yuan Ming and said with a worried face.

"If even second-rank talismans cannot break the underground restrictions, that means we have found the right place. This should be the true cave dwelling of Master Jialan. Perhaps the Brahma Body Dharma Body is hidden here." The tall and thin monk, however, nodded after pondering and said.

"Brother, we were able to find this place by luck, discovering the map to here from a stone cave.

But since we cannot break the restrictions and enter immediately, why don't you take out that treasure that can sense the Brahma Body Dharma Body and confirm it?

If Master Jialan really hid the Dharma body here, at such a close distance, there should be some reaction." The young monk said with a grin.

"That's true. If that thing has a reaction, the two of us must break the restrictions and snatch Master Jialan's Brahma Body Dharma Body before others arrive. But if there is no reaction, we should be cautious and wait until the other true disciples of the Four Sects arrive before entering to take the treasure." Yuan Ming monk had no expression on his face, but his tone became somewhat solemn.

The young monk Yuan Tong naturally nodded repeatedly.

Following that, the tall and thin monk fished a string of milk-yellow Buddhist beads the size of a thumb from his sleeve. After chanting a "Buddha name," he poured his magic power into the beads.

In a moment, the entire string of beads began to emit a pale white light, but only one of them remained motionless, appearing exceptionally eye-catching.

Seeing this, the tall and thin monk's eyes flashed with essence. He pinched a spell with one hand and began to flick the beads rapidly with the other. After a few circles, that motionless bead suddenly began to buzz, and then with a "clatter," the entire string of beads automatically floated up, forming a triangle shape and pointing straight into the depths of the gray-white mist.

"There's a reaction! Master Jialan really hid the Brahma Body Dharma Body here." The young monk, who had been grinning all along, jumped three feet high and said, full of surprise.

One must know that he had originally always felt that although this secret realm was called the Jialan Secret Realm by later generations, in reality, it might not have a very deep connection with Master Jialan.

And with Master Jialan's status as a Nascent Soul cultivator, it was unlikely that he would really hide his own Dharma body casually in some secret realm. Therefore, after entering this secret realm, he hadn't really taken it as a big deal.

But the reaction of the Buddhist beads before his eyes directly overturned Yuan Tong's original thoughts. One could imagine his surprise.

"Good, good! It seems Master Jialan's Dharma body is really fated with Junior Brother. In this case, we must risk breaking the restrictions." The middle-aged monk grabbed the Buddhist beads again, put them into his sleeve, and then said solemnly to Yuan Tong.

"As long as it's confirmed that the Dharma body is really here, I brought a very rare one-time restriction-breaking artifact, which is enough for us brothers to enter temporarily." The young monk looked at the gray-white mist sea not far away and said eagerly.

"Hmm, since Master bestowed this artifact, using it here is most appropriate. As long as we take the Dharma body inside, you and I will immediately leave this place far away and not run into people from other sects again." The tall and thin monk heard this, his eyes flashing with essence as he said.

Yuan Tong naturally agreed fully. Following that, he took out a pale yellow wooden fish from his storage bag, and then fished out a pitch-black wooden stick.

He held the wooden fish in one hand and the black wooden stick in the other, and took the lead in walking toward the gray-white mist sea, with the tall and thin monk following closely behind.

A moment later, the sound of the wooden fish rang out. The sound was not loud, but it was exceptionally pleasant and crisp.

Then, an incredible scene appeared.

The originally rolling mist sea, after the sound of the wooden fish appeared, actually rolled and retreated one after another, clearing a large, empty area in the blink of an eye.

The young monk walked slowly into the mist sea while knocking on the wooden fish. Wherever the sound of the wooden fish passed, the gray-white mist retreated and made way.

But after the two monks' figures went deep into the mist sea, the gray-white mist rolled in again in the originally empty area behind, making the edge of the mist sea calm again.

In the ancient temple ruins deep in the mist sea, the originally tightly closed ancient temple door was suddenly knocked open from the inside out, and at the same time, a figure rolled out from inside.

Through the blood-red moon in the sky, one could vaguely see a pale face full of extreme terror; it was actually Huang Li Shixiong.

It's just that at this time, his body was completely sprawled on the ground, his clothes were covered in mud, and his lower body was missing a large section. His two lower legs had actually been forcibly torn off from the knees, but no blood flowed out.

At this time, Huang Li Shixiong seemed to have completely lost his magic power and could only support himself on the ground with both hands, crawling desperately toward the gray-white mist sea not far away.

But just at this moment, a low roar came from the darkness behind the ancient temple door, followed by a large amount of black silk flying out from inside the door. After rolling, it entangled Huang Li Shixiong's body and pulled it back fiercely.

"Swish."

Huang Li Shixiong's body rose into the air and flew directly back behind the ancient temple door.

"No, let me go..."

"Monster, I'll fight you to the death."

Huang Li Shixiong's desperate words came from behind the door. A moment later, there was a loud noise that made the ancient temple door shake slightly, but then there was no sound at all.

After the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn, a gurgling sound came out, and a round thing was thrown out from the door.

It was exactly Huang Li Shixiong's head with eyes wide open, but the part below the neck was nowhere to be found, and there was even a pale bite mark left on the neck. ===== CHAPTER 209 =====
