Chapter 267: Strengthening the Seal

After Song Qingming followed the Xiaoyao Sect crowd to bow and salute, he soon knew the identity of this woman.

Since they called her Martial Uncle Bai, she must be the Jin Dan Elder Bai Yuxian, who ranked third in the Xiaoyao Sect.

She was the only Heaven Spiritual Root cultivator among the Jin Dan cultivators of this generation in the Xiaoyao Sect, and she was also the one with the greatest hope of forming a Nascent Soul in the future. Regarding this true genius in the cultivation world, Song Qingming was truly somewhat envious. Some people were really born standing at the top that others couldn't reach. Even if you cultivated hard for a lifetime, you might not be able to catch up with her heels.

Li Wutong waved his hand after seeing the crowd. He saw Song Qingming standing on the side and soon recognized that he was the Qi Condensation small cultivator who exchanged for a Foundation Establishment Pill from his hands back then.

It was just that, seeing Song Qingming, who had already successfully established his Foundation and whose cultivation base was steadily improving to the fourth layer of Foundation Establishment, Li Wutong, this Jin Dan cultivator, didn't show too much surprise. He just looked at him slightly before turning his gaze away and asking:

"Where is the Demon-Suppressing Tower, and what is the situation inside now?" What made Song Qingming somewhat surprised was that Li Wutong didn't ask the mission leader Wang Mengxiao, but instead asked Bai Yunhua, who had the lowest cultivation base on the side. It seemed that his relationship with him was closer.

"Reporting to Martial Uncle Li, the Demon-Suppressing Tower is in a cave in front. After the disciples discovered it, they retreated and kept watch here, and didn't touch the seal."

Li Wutong nodded after listening, then glanced at Bai Yuxian on the side. Seeing that her expression was plain and she had nothing to say, he signaled everyone to lead the way in front.

After passing through the pitch-black cave again, everyone soon arrived at the Demon-Suppressing Tower in the underground cave.

Seeing the somewhat damaged stone tower, the Bai Yuxian who was walking in front flew directly above the Demon-Suppressing Tower and looked at it carefully. After the crowd behind followed up, she then landed on the stone platform, and then a clear and spiritual sound rang out in the air.

"The main body of this demon is still sealed inside the Demon-Suppressing Tower. It should be that only a portion of the primordial spirit has escaped. I want to first find a way to strengthen the seal. You all don't get too close!"

Hearing that there were still demons inside the Demon-Suppressing Tower, the crowd who came in yesterday was shocked. Especially Wang Mengxiao, who had wanted to go and check the seal back then, felt a cold sweat break out on his back. He didn't know why he suddenly had this idea back then, but now thinking about it, he was really somewhat scared afterward.

Hearing Bai Yuxian's reminder, besides Jin Dan True Person Li Wutong, Foundation Establishment cultivators like Song Qingming hurriedly retreated a hundred zhang and stood far away on the side.

After the few people below walked away, Bai Yuxian lifted her jade hand lightly, and three black and white spiritual talismans flew onto the stone tower, tightly sticking to the top, middle, and bottom positions of the stone tower.

Afterward, Bai Yuxian quickly cast a spell toward these few spiritual talismans. The talisman scripts on the three spiritual talismans immediately emitted spiritual light, and dozens of talisman seals quickly emerged from the spiritual talismans, then crawled all over the entire stone tower, tightly wrapping the entire Demon-Suppressing Tower inside.

Song Qingming saw these three black and white spiritual talismans and instantly recognized that this talisman should be the Demon-Suppressing Talisman commonly used by righteous cultivators to deal with demons. It was just that the power of the three third-tier Demon-Suppressing Talismans used by Bai Yuxian far exceeded those Song Qingming had seen before.

Being able to let Bai Yuxian use three third-tier Demon-Suppressing Talismans all at once, Song Qingming could also detail how powerful the demon sealed in this Demon-Suppressing Tower was originally. If this demon were really allowed to escape, I'm afraid the entire Wei Country would welcome a scene of blood and rain, and life would be ruined.

Just as Bai Yuxian was wholeheartedly controlling the spell to strengthen the seal, the Demon-Suppressing Tower, which had been motionless, suddenly shook violently. Some corner places that hadn't been completely covered by the Demon-Suppressing Talismans suddenly rose a burst of thick black mist.

The black mist quickly gathered into a huge black head above the Demon-Suppressing Tower and fiercely pounced toward Bai Yuxian, who was casting the spell.

"Monster, how dare you be presumptuous!"

Seeing the black head wanting to interrupt Bai Yuxian's spell casting, after a roar of anger, Li Wutong, who was guarding her, held a giant golden sword and flew directly into the air to intercept it.

Although this head formed by black mist looked very scary, its strength was actually not fierce. Li Wutong didn't spend much effort to cut it into two halves with one sword. But after these two halves of the head turned into black mist, they soon gathered together again and gave birth to a slightly smaller head.

Regarding this, Li Wutong didn't feel surprised either. He reached out and took out several second-tier demon-subduing talismans and stuck them on his flying sword, directly taking the initiative to step forward and launch an attack on the head formed by the black mist.

This group of black mist saw that it couldn't defeat Li Wutong and wanted to slip away directly. But after only escaping for a hundred zhang, it didn't know what power was pulling it, and it was pulled back to the vicinity of the Demon-Suppressing Tower again, making it completely unable to escape Li Wutong's attack.

After the blessing of the demon-subduing talisman specifically for dealing with demons, the power of the flying sword in Li Wutong's hand increased by a few points. It didn't take long before, with a scream, this group of black mist completely disappeared under his sword.

Li Wutong finished fighting on this side, and Bai Yuxian also had progress on that side. With the continuous strengthening of the seal by the Demon-Suppressing Talisman, the entire stone tower also slowly calmed down and no longer had black mist overflowing.

After waiting for another half a day, Bai Yuxian, who had completed the spell casting, finally put away the magic power in her hand and stood up.

"With this seal I strengthened, this demon will not have the ability to escape within two hundred years. However, this demon has some ability to bewitch people's hearts, so we still need to be careful to guard against it. I will go outside to set up a formation to seal the entrance, so as to avoid anyone mistakenly entering this place in the future."

"Martial Sister Bai, you just said that a portion of this demon's primordial spirit has escaped. Is there any solution to this major hidden danger?"

Although Li Wutong was a bit older than Bai Yuxian, because his time of forming a Core was later than hers, he still had to call Bai Yuxian Martial Sister in terms of seniority.

Bai Yuxian shook her head and said, "Currently, it is not known how the demon's primordial spirit escaped the sealing range of the Demon-Suppressing Tower, and it is impossible to know where this demon has escaped. However, I just looked at it. This Demon-Suppressing Tower has been at least several hundred years old. Even if the demon inside escaped a portion of its primordial spirit and could possess low-tier cultivators, it doesn't have much lifespan to re-cultivate its techniques. We don't need to worry too much about this point."

Hearing these words, Li Wutong also breathed a sigh of relief and muttered to himself again, "I don't know which senior sealed this demon here, and didn't even say hello to our Xiaoyao Sect, almost causing a major disaster by a few ignorant juniors!"

"The cultivation world is so big, and there are many senior experts who act in an unconventional style. Perhaps this Demon-Suppressing Tower was just done by some senior passing by, and they didn't want to have any connection with our Xiaoyao Sect."
