Master's Chief Disciple
Chapter 316: Desolate Demon Land
After about an hour, she did find out a lot of news. The previously dilapidated Ziyou City was rebuilt, and the current city lord was Lu Ci.
She thought that the entire Beiyao Continent was taken over by Gu Lan alone, but she didn't expect that there was also a Lu Ci. To go to the Xingyun Demon Realm, one must enter from the Wilderness Demon Land.
However, the Desolate Demon Land is full of ferocious monsters, and anyone from another race that enters will be torn to pieces by them.
Moreover, poisonous purple fog would erupt every hour in the Desolate Demon Land, and the demon beasts and demons could come and go freely in the purple fog;
Mu Huayan walked all the way to a place called Yimo Pavilion. There were many boxes placed outside the door of the pavilion, and many people in strange clothes were busy.
They were almost all wearing the same purple robes and cloaks, and one could vaguely hear them talking about something, trying to be very alert.
At first glance, the whole house was decorated very delicately. At this time, a girl in a purple dress walked out.
"Are you ready? Have you brought everything?"
One of the men in purple cloaks put down what he was doing and went up to talk to him. Finally, he asked,
"That place is so dangerous, can we make it with just a few of us?"
The girl in the purple dress looked up at the bright moon and took a deep breath for a moment before nodding firmly.
"It has to be done even if it's not necessary. We can't find any monks willing to go in now."
Mu Huayan, who was standing in the shop next to Yimo Pavilion, bought a hairpin at random and then went to the teahouse opposite to inquire.
She was sitting next to the window on the second floor. From this angle, she could just see Yimo Pavilion across the street.
When the waiter came to serve tea, she handed him an eighteenth-level demon pill and asked him to invite the owner of the teahouse.
The boss was a little confused when he heard it, but when he saw Yao Dan, he understood what she meant, "Miss, do you want to know more about Yimo Pavilion?"
Seeing that he had good eyesight, Mu Huayan asked directly without beating around the bush: "Who is the woman standing outside the door?"
"And what are they transporting? And where are they transporting it to?"
The boss looked middle-aged, with a sallow face with many fine lines. He patiently explained to Mu Huayan,
"That girl is Tao Jin, the deputy head of Yimo Pavilion. They want to transport a batch of food and spiritual herbs out of Beiyao Continent..."
"But I don't know where it will be shipped to in the end. However, when we need to purchase goods from other places, we will entrust them to help collect and transport them."
"Also, Yimo Pavilion will deliver mysterious cargo every three or four days at midnight. As for what it is and where it is going, I don't know."
The teahouse owner wanted to say something but swallowed it back. Mu Huayan took out an eighteenth-level demon pill and placed it on the table.
The teahouse owner smiled innocently for a moment, looked around for a while, and then spoke to her in a low voice.
The general idea was that he and other shop owners had seen the goods they were transporting by chance, but their accounts varied.
Some said they were transporting newly hatched monsters, others said they were transporting some unknown insects.
Others say that their boxes contain some kind of magic weapon that can enhance their strength;
Mu Huayan sorted out all the information. The matter of the Blood Demon Sect had not been resolved yet, but she did not expect the demons to pop up and cause trouble again.
The most troublesome thing was that she couldn't track down any trace of the demons. She saw that the people on the other side had already loaded the goods and were ready to pull the carriage to set off.
Without hesitation, she put on her Confucian robes to hide her figure and aura, and followed the carriage. After a few minutes, the carriage stopped in an open woodland.
I saw Tao Jin floating in the air in front of me, making hand gestures and muttering something. As the spiritual energy circulated, a space crack appeared in front of me.
But after a while, the space crack began to become unstable and showed signs of collapse. Others were discussing whether it was successful. After all, not everyone could learn the art of space.
The girl was sweating on her forehead and biting her lower lip tightly. Finally, she couldn't keep the energy of the space steady and was injured.
"Deputy Pavilion Master, are you okay?"
One of the women came forward and held her back and asked her with concern. She shook her head and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and whispered: "Damn it, what went wrong?"
"This space technique is not easy to begin with, not to mention that the place we are heading to is the Desolate Demon Land, where the energy is inherently unstable;"
"Deputy Pavilion Master, how about we try it together?"
Tao Jin hesitated for a long time, but she was originally a cultivator in the middle realm, and she was not proficient in space techniques. Instead of wasting time here, she might as well give it a try.
Then she also selected a few people in the middle realm to work together to open the space. It seems that Mu Huayan bet right that their target was indeed the Desolate Demon Land.
This made her even more curious about what they were transporting. Judging from the auras of the people just now, they were not demons.
"Doing business with the demons..."
When she was lost in thought, Tao Jin and the others had successfully opened the space. It was pitch black in the space and she couldn't see anything at all.
When she tried to use her spiritual sense to investigate, she was able to see a little bit. At this time, one or two of them noticed something strange and looked around in fear.
"I, I feel like there's a strong presence nearby."
"How is that possible? Who else is here besides us?" Tao Jin retorted loudly.
She said this but still looked around. She walked to the back of the carriage and patted the man on the shoulder. "Don't scare yourself. There is no one there."
The man clasped his fists and nodded, but he always felt that there was something behind him. But when he turned around, he saw nothing. Even when he opened his spiritual sense, he did not find anything unusual.
After Mu Huayan finished her investigation, she withdrew her spiritual consciousness. Tao Jin happened to call everyone to enter the space quickly, otherwise they would be trapped inside if their spiritual power was not enough to support the space.
The large group entered the space in a mighty manner. Tao Jin, the leader, took out a bead that could illuminate the space and activated it with spiritual power.
The space was dead silent yet full of weirdness. Some people were so scared that they looked around with beads of sweat on their faces.
"You think the monsters won't notice us?"
"The deputy pavilion master just said not to scare yourself."
"..."
Soon the convoy had walked out of the space and arrived at an open mountain area. There were towering mountains on both sides.
There was a strong demonic energy floating around here, but it was too mixed for her to sense the Demon Lord's aura, but there were quite a few powerful demonic beasts.
Mu Huayan didn't understand how the eight cultivators at the middle level could survive here, and what would happen if they encountered a demon beast.
After all, the highest-level monsters here are as powerful as the peak ancestral realm of the cultivators. As she was thinking, suddenly bursts of light purple smoke appeared around her.
The people delivering the goods lost their composure and shouted, "Oh no! The purple mist is about to gather."
"No, the purple mist will not appear for another half hour. Why did it appear earlier today?" Tao Jin murmured, holding his chin with his hand, but his face showed a look of fear.
"Quick, the remaining four people form a formation."
After hearing this, several people stood in different positions and made hand gestures for a while before a huge barrier covered the entire convoy.
As soon as the barrier fell, the purple mist became thicker and thicker, and the surrounding demonic energy also began to gather here.
Tao Jin, the leader, noticed something was wrong. In the past, he could block the purple mist and isolate the evil spirit by opening the barrier. But why was the evil spirit gathering here?
"Sister Tao, what's going on! The demonic energy is getting closer and closer..."
The man who was standing in one of the positions to stabilize the formation was distracted, his body trembling slightly. As soon as he finished speaking, the roar of monsters rang out around him.
Before Tao Jin could think, beams of fiery red flames fell from a distance above the barrier, and the ground shook with a loud bang.
"Hold on, don't let go!"
"I-We won't die here, right? It's obvious that the demons have discovered our location!"
As soon as these words came out, the minds of the four people who were stabilizing the formation began to collapse. The spiritual energy was no longer enough to support the operation of the entire formation.
Tao Jin had no choice but to step forward and transfer his spiritual power to stabilize the formation. Suddenly, a chaotic and chaotic sound of heavy running could be heard in the distance.
From time to time, there were low roars of monsters, and a strange noise came from the sky, which at first glance sounded like the flapping of wings.
"There are still people who want to die. I can have a good meal tonight. Hahahaha."
A powerful voice came from the southeast, behind Tao Jin. Judging from the breath, it should be the leader of the monsters. However, the monsters living in the Wild Demon Land are not divided into different levels.
They are all collectively called demon beasts. Their lowest strength is classified according to the Golden Body Realm of human cultivators, and the highest level is at the Peak Ancestor Realm.
Moreover, most of them are magical beasts that have not yet transformed, with different faces and bodies, but here the low-level magical beasts have to obey the orders of the high-level magical beasts.
If you don't obey, some bloody incidents will happen. For example, when the monsters are hungry, they will eat low-level monsters as snacks.
"!!!"
"Deputy Pavilion Master! Let's open the space and go back."
Tao Jin looked at the goods beside him and frowned, "No, we can't leave. We must get the goods to the destination safely."
"But can we deal with so many monsters?" said one of the women.
Tao Jin's face was serious but his voice could be heard to tremble slightly.
"Don't worry, they don't dare to touch the things in here!"
"If the goods are not delivered on time, he will definitely not let these monsters go."
"So they don't dare to touch us at all!"
But before they could finish their words, many of the monsters had surrounded them, and some of them were already punching the barrier. Their excited roars made people's scalps numb.
Some people began to attack the monsters outside the circle, but the monsters kept increasing in number, and cracks began to appear in the barrier.
"Humans, stop resisting. You will eventually become our food no matter what."
The crazy laughter of high-level monsters could be heard in the air, and all the monsters immediately sped up and intensified their attacks on the barrier.
"You bunch of idiots, open your eyes and see clearly what we are pulling!" Tao Jin shouted loudly.
"We have killed quite a few people like you who are transporting goods in the past few days. What are you afraid of?"
Facing Tao Jin's threats, they were not afraid at all and continued to attack and beat the barrier.
They never expected to be attacked by the demons, and now the spiritual power in the star sea has been greatly depleted.
If they continued like this, they would surely die. Two of them had already fallen to the ground exhausted.
As soon as they set up the barrier, Mu Huayan entered into a state of meditation and used her spiritual sense to detect the Demon Lord's aura.
