After Lan Yiheng recovered, he said, "I know where Taotie is. I can take you there, but it's about to break free from its seal."

Baoshan Sanren said, "It's still stubborn and refuses to change! When we sealed it together, we thought it would repent, but it has become even more cruel."

When everyone heard this, their hearts tightened.

They knew that once Taotie broke the seal, it would bring about a huge disaster.

Lan Qingheng frowned and looked at Lan Yiheng and said, "Fourth Uncle, are you sure about Taogui's location?"

Lan Yiheng nodded and said, "I'm sure. I made a contract with it back then, so I'm very familiar with its aura. Besides, I was there a while ago."

Wei Wuxian said with some concern, "Lan Zhan, Taotie is so powerful, can we really seal it again?"

Lan Wangji held Wei Wuxian's hand and said, "Wei Ying, we must give it a try. Otherwise, if Taogui breaks free from its seal, the consequences will be disastrous."

Lan Yiheng recalled the scene when he first encountered it by chance.

He was furious when he was kicked out by the Lan family, but he was also injured at the time.

While resting in a cave, he heard a voice saying, "Do you want revenge? Do you want powerful strength? As long as you make a contract with me, I can help you."

The sound seemed to carry endless temptation, echoing continuously in the cave.

Lan Yiheng was still somewhat rational at first and tried to resist this temptation.

However, the hatred and desire for power in his heart burned like a flame, causing him to gradually lose his mind.

He walked forward involuntarily, as if he had lost himself in thought. With every step he took, the sound seemed to grow stronger, as if urging him to quicken his pace.

After walking for a long time, Lan Yiheng finally arrived in front of Taogui.

The Taotie was huge and exuded a terrifying evil aura.

Its eyes were like burning flames, staring at Lan Yiheng closely.

"Now that you're here, we can start the contract." Taogui's voice sounded in Lan Yiheng's mind.

Lan Yiheng was already overwhelmed by desire at this time and agreed without hesitation.

Taotie opened its bloody mouth and a black light shot out, covering Lan Yiheng.

Lan Yiheng felt a powerful force surging into his body, and at the same time, a mark seemed to be branded deep in his soul.

"From now on, the contract between you and me is established. I will grant you powerful strength, and you must help me absorb spiritual consciousness." Taogui's voice was full of majesty.

Lan Yiheng only felt that his body was full of strength. He clenched his fists excitedly, as if he saw the hope of revenge.

However, as time went on, Lan Yiheng gradually discovered that this contract brought not only power, but also endless pain and torture.

Taogui's evil aura continued to erode his soul, making him increasingly cold-blooded and cruel.

He began to regret his decision, but there was no turning back.

Lan Yiheng finished his recollection and said with regret, "It was all because of my greed. As a member of the Lan family, I should have set an example. It was me who brought shame to the Lan family."

Lan Qingheng looked at Lan Yiheng and said, "Fourth Uncle, it's not too late to regret now. Let's go together to stop Taotie and make up for your mistakes."

Lan Yiheng nodded heavily and said, "Okay, I will do my best to help you."

After discussion, everyone decided to set off immediately to where Taotie was.

Along the way, everyone looked solemn and worried, for they knew it would be a difficult battle.

Finally, they arrived at the cave where Taotie was.

There was an evil aura in the cave that made people shudder.

Lan Wangji looked around warily and said, "Everyone, be careful. Taogui might be nearby."

Wei Wuxian also gripped the Chen Qing Flute tightly, ready to respond to any emergency. They cautiously entered the cave and saw a huge seal deep inside, a faint light flickering on it.

Lan Yiheng pointed at the seal and said, "Taogui is under this seal. It has been trying to break through the seal and is almost successful now."

Baoshan Sanren stepped forward, carefully observed the seal, and said, "This seal is already very fragile. We must strengthen it as soon as possible."

Everyone used their spiritual power to try to strengthen the seal. However, as soon as their spiritual power touched the seal, it was rebounded by a powerful force.

Lan Wangji said, "This seal has the power of Taotie. We can't force it."

Wei WuXian thought for a moment and said, "We can try to use a formation to strengthen the seal."

Baoshan Sanren nodded and said, "This method is feasible. We can set up a powerful formation to suppress the power of Taotie."

So everyone started to get busy.

They divided the work and cooperated with each other, some arranged the formation, some searched for the center of the formation, and some injected spiritual power. With everyone's joint efforts, a powerful formation gradually took shape.

However, just as they were about to complete the formation, a violent vibration suddenly came from the cave.

The light on the seal also became fainter, as if it would break at any time.

Lan Wangji said, "Oh no! Taotie is about to break the seal."

Everyone quickly sped up the pace of setting up the formation.

Finally, just as the seal was about to break, the formation was complete. A powerful ray of light shot out from the formation, firmly reinforcing the seal.

The vibrations in the cave gradually subsided.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but they knew it was only temporary. Taotie wouldn't give up easily and would continue to search for opportunities to break through the seal.

Lan Qingheng looked at everyone and said, "We can't let our guard down. We must always be vigilant of Taotie's movements. If it makes any unusual movements, we must take immediate action."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Wei WuXian walked around the area and came back, saying, "Master, if you don't go, please let me and Fifth Uncle add some restrictions to this formation."

Baoshan Sanren nodded slightly, "This is a very good move. It's always good to have an extra layer of protection."

Wei Wuxian and Yin Li looked at each other, and then the two of them began to chant incantations around the formation.

Rays of spiritual light flew out from their fingertips and merged into the formation. As restrictions were added, layers of halos appeared above the formation.

Suddenly, a roar erupted from beneath the seal. Taotie seemed to sense danger and was struggling desperately. The entire cave shook, and sand and rocks fell.

Lan Wangji took a step forward, protecting Wei Wuxian behind him, and stared at the seal vigilantly.

Wei WuXian patted his shoulder and said soothingly, "Lan Zhan, don't worry, we'll be fine soon."

Soon, the restrictions were completely implemented. The seal, which had been shaky, was now much more stable, and the light was much stronger.

But there was not much relief on everyone's face, because they knew that Taogui would not give up.

Lan Qingheng said with a firm look, "I will stay here to guard the place. If anything happens, I will inform everyone in time."

After some discussion, everyone felt that this plan was feasible, so they left for the time being and would come back later to discuss how to completely resolve the Taotie issue.
