Chapter 356: Re-entering Black Stone Valley

~8 min read 1,488 words

Three days later, Li Mu, who had been tracking all the way from the Fuyun Mountain Range, also arrived outside Black Stone Valley. Standing at the valley entrance, he looked at the familiar scenery around him with some surprise, and then looked down at the direction indicated by a trace of Wang Sihai's divine soul that appeared in the Soul-Gathering Bowl in his hand.

After Li Mu wandered at the valley entrance for a moment, he asked in a low voice: "Senior Feng He, this method of yours won't be inaccurate, right? Has this demon really hidden here?"

After the voice fell for a moment, a somewhat lazy voice slowly sounded.

"You kid, rest assured. I have used this method a few times before, and it has never gone wrong. As long as this trace of divine soul is that kid's, I still have this bit of certainty to find him."

"Could it be! It wouldn't be such a coincidence, right! Is this guy aiming for the Demon-Suppressing Tower in the valley?"

Black Stone Valley is a barren place. A demon cultivator coming here, except for the Demon-Suppressing Tower, Li Mu really couldn't think of a better reason for a while.

Because of the matter of Third Brother Song Qingze back then, Li Mu once came here once with a few fellow Daoists from the Xiaoyao Sect's Law Enforcement Hall. It was also that time that Li Mu saw the Demon-Suppressing Tower in Black Stone Valley with his own eyes and knew that a great demon with profound cultivation was also sealed here.

When leaving Black Stone Valley back then, Li Mu had also heard the Xiaoyao Sect cultivators discuss this matter with his own ears. Logically speaking, they should have sent people to look after this place of sealing.

But nowadays, a Foundation Establishment demon with extraordinary strength has come to Black Stone Valley. Li Mu also doesn't know what the situation in the valley is now. He doesn't know whether the Xiaoyao Sect cultivators stationed here have already bumped into this demon.

Thinking of this, Li Mu felt somewhat uneasy in his heart. He didn't know whether he should go forward to wade through this muddy water. In case he really bumped into Xiaoyao Sect cultivators, how should he explain his purpose for coming here at that time.

"To tell you the truth, Senior, Junior once came here more than ten years ago and knew that a high-level demon path person was also sealed in the valley."

"A high-level demon path person? Is what you said true?" Feng He asked with incomprehension.

After Li Mu turned around and found a quiet place to sit down, he told Feng He, who was still in the dark, in detail about what happened when he came to Black Stone Valley back then.

"This demon has been sealed for hundreds of years and has not been able to escape, which shows that the Demon-Suppressing Tower that suppressed him is not an ordinary object. Relying on just a Foundation Establishment demon cultivator wanting to easily break the seal in a short period of time, I estimate it is not very possible. You don't need to be afraid of this point. With me here, as long as you don't encounter a demon above the Jin Dan, I can ensure you leave here safely." Hearing that a Jin Dan peak demon cultivator was sealed in Black Stone Valley, Feng He did not seem to care much.

"Senior! Besides that demon cultivator, there might also be Xiaoyao Sect cultivators guarding the seal in the valley. Junior is also a bit afraid that going forward will bump into them, and it will be difficult to explain this matter at that time."

"Hehe! You are not wrong to worry about these things. However, since we have spent so much effort to get here, there is no reason to go back empty-handed."

"I have a few spiritual items here, you take them first. With these things, as long as you don't encounter a Jin Dan cultivator, sneaking into this place is not a big problem."

After speaking, Feng He, who had been hiding behind Li Mu, flapped his wings, and then three magic tools flew out from his wings and fell into Li Mu's hands.

These three spiritual items were an egg-sized jade bead, a silver spiritual talisman, and a golden fine net.

"This bead only needs to be placed on the top of the head to ensure that all the aura and magic power fluctuations on your body are hidden within a few hours. Combined with the magic robe that hides your figure in your hand, it is absolutely impossible for cultivators below the Jin Dan to easily discover you. The other two spiritual items are both sharp weapons for dealing with demon cultivators. With your current cultivation base, having these two spiritual items in hand, beheading that demon cultivator should be a matter of course."

Seeing the three spiritual items in his hand, Li Mu's face was immediately filled with joy, and the somewhat worried look on his face also disappeared without a trace.

After putting away the other two spiritual items, Li Mu followed what Feng He said and placed the jade bead on the top of his head. The surroundings seemed to immediately form an invisible wall, isolating the magic power on his body from the surrounding spiritual energy. This also allowed the aura on Li Mu's body to be instantly imprisoned around himself.

Seeing that the effect of this item was exactly as Feng He said, Li Mu smiled slightly, took out the Hidden Spirit Shirt and put it on, and carefully walked into Black Stone Valley step by step.

After entering the valley, Li Mu did not discover the figures of other cultivators and immediately boldly quickened his pace.

According to his memory from more than ten years ago, Li Mu soon found the cave entrance that sealed the Demon-Suppressing Tower.

Seeing the formation at the cave entrance that sealed the entrance being destroyed for a period of time, Li Mu also knew that this demon should have already entered the cave, but he didn't know whether his goal had been achieved or not.

After Li Mu walked forward for a section of the road along the tunnel he had walked before, Li Mu immediately felt a somewhat eerie yin wind drifting over. It seemed that it was indeed correct; this demon was right here at this moment.

Just after stepping into the huge underground cave that sealed the Demon-Suppressing Tower, Li Mu immediately heard a burst of intense fighting sounds coming from the front.

After climbing onto a relatively large boulder at the entrance, Li Mu immediately saw the appearance of the entire hall and discovered that the magic spells used by those people fighting were all very powerful, and it looked like they were all cultivators above Foundation Establishment.

There were several people in the battlefield fighting in front. On the left was a tall and thin red-clothed man fighting a black-clothed man wearing a long robe and a bamboo hat, dressed somewhat similarly to Li Mu. On the other side was an old man with a long beard entangled with a huge ghost head. The old man with the long beard and the red-clothed man were obviously together, and the two of them often took care of each other during the battle.

The red-clothed man's cultivation base seemed to be the highest one present, already reaching the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and the fight with the black-clothed man also occupied the upper hand. But the cultivation base of the old man with the long beard who was responsible for containing the ghost head was much worse, and he had already been suppressed by the huge ghost head in the air to the point of having no power to fight back, and he needed the red-clothed man to take care of him from time to time to barely maintain his undefeated state.

"The two people fighting against that demon cultivator don't look like Xiaoyao Sect cultivators, and they don't seem like righteous cultivators either. Could it be that these people fighting are all demon cultivators?" Li Mu saw that the scene of the fight in front was somewhat messy, so he sent a voice transmission to Feng He on his body to ask for his opinion.

"Hehe! Righteous cultivators will fight each other, let alone people in the demon path. These people, even if they are teachers or brothers, are all targets that can be betrayed. There is no need to make a fuss about this."

Li Mu naturally knew that fighting among demon cultivators was not a strange thing, but the sudden appearance of two more demon cultivators really made him somewhat surprised, disrupting his original plan for a while.
