Chapter 266: Demon-Suppressing Tower

~7 min read 1,336 words

After entering the cave, everyone walked hundreds of feet inside, and suddenly it opened up.

After everyone released several lighting spells, they discovered that they seemed to have entered a huge underground cave.

It's just that after entering this place, everyone felt a wisp of gloomy wind blowing in their faces, making people feel a bit creepy.

"This breath is not right, everyone be careful, don't disperse." Seeming to smell a strange bloody smell in this gloomy wind, Wang Mengxiao hurriedly reminded everyone.

After hearing this, the few people who had walked away a bit hurriedly approached again.

"Senior Brother Wang, I think it's better to explore the way first!" Bai Yunhua also reminded after hearing this.

Wang Mengxiao nodded, then took out a purple spirit beast bag from his waist.

Only hearing a squeaking sound, a spirit-exploring mouse about a foot high jumped out of the spirit beast bag.

Under Wang Mengxiao's instruction, the somewhat cute spirit-exploring mouse walked carefully in front, while Wang Mengxiao led everyone to follow behind at a distance.

The further they went, the more obvious the bloody smell in the air became, and a trace of heavy color gradually appeared on everyone's faces.

The gloomy atmosphere inside this cave didn't look like a cultivator's cave dwelling at all, and everyone took out the magic tools on their bodies, ready to fight with others at any time.

Fortunately, there was no change along the way, and everyone came to the depths of the cave without much effort.

"Look, there is a corpse in front." With a shout from Bai Yunhua, everyone's eyes immediately gathered.

"Not bad, this is the magic robe of our Carefree Sect. It seems to be them. What kind of person is so vicious that they dare to take action against our Carefree Sect people here." In front of everyone was a corpse that was already very old.

Because Qi Refining stage cultivators have been refining their flesh with spiritual energy for many years, even if they die, they will almost not be damaged within ten years, so it is easy to identify this person's identity.

But the corpse in front of them could no longer see the original specific face, as if all the essence blood in the whole body had been sucked dry in an instant, the whole person's face had become a shriveled dry corpse, and the expression on the face was also very terrified, not knowing what kind of terrifying thing they had encountered, the storage bag on the corpse had long since disappeared, but the Taoist robe unique to the inner sect disciples of the Carefree Sect worn by this person was too obvious, so it was still possible to determine his identity.

Seeing the appearance of this corpse, Song Qingming couldn't help but feel a trace of anxiety in his heart. This miserable appearance was really beyond his expectations.

Before everyone could think carefully, a second corpse was found not far ahead, and the situation was about the same as the miserable death of the one in front, and the storage bag on his body had also disappeared. However, when Song Qingming saw this corpse, he still felt a trace of familiarity instantly. After checking carefully, he still confirmed that this was Third Brother Song Qingze's corpse.

Dozens of feet in front of Song Qingze's corpse, everyone discovered a somewhat damaged stone platform, with four corpses of Carefree Sect disciples lying around it, who seemed to be the rest of the missing people.

"Junior Brother Bai, what kind of magic array is this, do you recognize it?" Seeing a stone tower built of stones on the stone platform, with many restrictions and charms drawn on it, Wang Mengxiao, who was walking in front, hurriedly asked Bai Yunhua, a second-grade array master, on the side.

Bai Yunhua stepped forward to check it, and then said seriously, "This doesn't seem to be a magic array, it's a Demon-Suppressing Tower. It looks like several junior brothers have touched the seal, and the evil things inside have been released by them."

"Demon-Suppressing Tower, why is this thing here? It has never been recorded in the sect's ancient texts!" Hearing that this thing was a Demon-Suppressing Tower, everyone showed a trace of panic on their faces.

This kind of thing like a Demon-Suppressing Tower is not common in the cultivation world and is generally used to seal those fierce magic cultivators or some evil spirits and ghosts that are difficult to completely eliminate.

Unlike the low-grade magic cultivators like Yang Wuqi that Song Qingming had seen before, magic cultivators above the Golden Core level can practice the Yin Demon Reincarnation Technique. In a critical moment, they can reincarnate into the substitute prepared before death. If the demon-subduing person has no special means, even if they kill their flesh, it is very difficult to completely eradicate this hidden danger.

And the Demon-Suppressing Tower is one of the ways to deal with these high-grade magic cultivators. When the magic cultivator dies, his primordial spirit is directly imprisoned in the body, and he is suppressed by the Demon-Suppressing Tower for hundreds or thousands of years. By the time the magic cultivator himself or the prepared substitute has exhausted his lifespan, he will not be able to make any waves.

This method is relatively clumsy, and the hidden danger is also very large. Without cultivators guarding it all year round, it is very easy to appear like this, being discovered by low-grade cultivators, mistakenly thinking it is something left by the ancient cultivation predecessors, and risking their lives to break the seal and release the demon sealed inside.

"Junior Brother Bai, are you sure this is a Demon-Suppressing Tower? Could it be wrong!" Wang Mengxiao looked at the stone platform in front of him and asked thoughtfully.

"I haven't seen the Demon-Suppressing Tower with my own eyes, but judging from the runes of this seal, it is indeed this kind of thing that seals evil things. I am still sure about this point."

"Junior Brother Wang, this matter involves a great demon, so we still need to report it to the sect quickly. Let's not get close to this magic array and go outside to notify Senior Uncle Li first!" Seeing Wang Mengxiao staring tightly at the Demon-Suppressing Tower in front of him, as if he still wanted to step forward to check it, Hu Zhongxing hurriedly reminded him.

Wang Mengxiao turned to look at the crowd, and seeing that everyone didn't object to Hu Zhongxing's statement, he quickly changed his attitude of wanting to step forward to check, let everyone collect the corpses around the stone platform, and retreated from this stone cave.

A day later, Song Qingming, who was waiting in Black Stone Valley with several Carefree Sect people, saw two spiritual lights flying quickly across the sky, and soon a man and a woman, two Golden Core cultivators, landed in front of everyone.

One of them Song Qingming recognized, it was the Carefree Sect Law Enforcement Hall Elder Li Wutong. Back then, Song Qingming got an opportunity to exchange for a Foundation Establishment Pill from him, and he could be considered a great benefactor who helped Song Qingming's path of Dao a lot.

The other one was relatively strange, and Song Qingming had never seen her before. This woman was wearing a blue and white long skirt. Although she looked only eighteen or nineteen years old, her appearance was beautiful, her spirit was like an orchid, and she exuded a unique atmosphere like a fairy stepping into the mortal world. Song Qingming had been cultivating for decades and had never seen such a temperament-outstanding woman, so he couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

Such a beautiful woman, every move can attract others' attention. Fortunately, Song Qingming's concentration in this regard was fairly good, so he didn't show too much loss of composure on the spot.

"Pay respects to Senior Uncle Bai, Senior Uncle Li!"
