Fate of the Immortals and Demons

"Eh, this is really strange. That fellow Daoist holding the Taiyi Lantern is truly incredibly fast. He's almost reached the summit, yet he's still so fast! He's already out of my range of consciousness."

Shortly after Mo Hei jumped down, one of the young male monks following behind him a thousand meters away couldn't help muttering to himself.

Another young man in gorgeous clothes said without a smile:

"To be able to make Fellow Daoist Taiqing so surprised, it seems that this Fellow Daoist must be extraordinary. However, I have never been able to detect this Fellow Daoist with my spiritual sense. Even Princess Xuanling from Nanzhao Kingdom and Commandery Princess Aman have never been able to detect him with their spiritual sense."

The young cultivator known as Fellow Daoist Taiqing, dressed in an extremely ordinary black robe, could not help but stroke his beard subconsciously, not knowing whether it was intentional to show his maturity and steadiness, and then said with a stern smile:

“If it weren’t for those two girls feeding the Fire Sheep Dragon Beast a low-grade spiritual herb, the Flame Flower, how could the Fire Sheep Dragon Beast have been so energetic and carried them all the way to the top of the mountain.

As for the Taoist friend who wore a mask to hide his true face, he probably agreed because he wanted the Taiyi Lanterns held by these two girls."

"What? This happened?"

The young monk in gorgeous clothes was suddenly shocked, his face full of disbelief.

The cultivator named Daoyou Taiqing was holding a flower that looked like a flame in his hand to resist the severe cold.

If seen by a cultivator with high cultivation level or extensive knowledge, he would be greatly surprised that this was actually a ball of Dan fire.

But you have to know that Dan Fire is usually only possessed by cultivators in the Jindan stage. However, it is undoubtedly too shocking that a cultivator who has not yet established his foundation actually possesses Dan Fire.

Moreover, this cultivator, who was only in the late Qi-building stage, had a spiritual awareness that was not inferior to Mo Hei, who cultivated the spiritual and demonic energy. This was extremely abnormal.

From this, it is not difficult to see that this cultivator called Taoist Taiqing must have an extraordinary origin and a deep background.

Who knows, it is very likely that some powerful person has taken over another person's body and reincarnated?

As for the young monk in gorgeous clothes, he was holding a red jade disk in his arms. The heat emitted by the jade disk was enough to protect him from the cold.

As they climbed higher and higher, the cold became more severe, and the two men's pace slowed down, but in the end they were both about to reach the summit.

"Huh? What's going on? It's Qin Yu, the fourteenth prince of the Great Qin Dynasty? And there's another cultivator whose identity is unknown?"

Before the two men reached the top of the mountain, Xuan Ling, who had also been waiting quietly, couldn't help but blurt out the answer first.

Seeing that it was these two people, Ah Man was also shocked and confused. He couldn't help but look down at the snow peak again and again, but he saw nothing but the strong wind and snow, and no one else in sight.

At this moment, I was dumbfounded and didn't know what to ask.

Ying Xingjue frowned slightly, and bowed to the young monk in brocade robes and asked:

"May I ask, Fourteenth Prince, have you encountered a cultivator named Mo Die along the way?"

It turned out that this young cultivator in gorgeous clothes was Qin Yu, the fourteenth prince of the fourth-level cultivation country, the Great Qin Dynasty.

"Modie?"

Qin Yu was startled when he heard this question. He first glanced at Ah Man and Xuan Ling who were still riding on the back of the Fire Sheep Dragon Beast, then shook his head and asked:

"What? Hasn't the person holding the Taiyi Lantern reached the top of this mountain yet?"

After he finished speaking, he glanced around at the monks gathered on the peak outside the gate of the Ice God Palace ruins, all of whom looked incredulous.

On the contrary, the young cultivator whom Qin Yu called Fellow Daoist Taiqing had a flickering gaze and remained silent.

"Xiao... Xiaoman... what... what should I do? ... That... that... that guy... couldn't he have escaped with... the Taiyi Ran Deng? How am I supposed to explain this to my father?"

Xuan Ling's face immediately turned pale, her tone was full of panic and anxiety, and she sounded like she was about to cry.

Ah Man was relatively calm and composed. He stared at the road ahead without blinking. After thinking for a moment, he said:

"There was a rumor that the Ice God Palace ruins concealed a secret passage. Could it be that Wei Heizi just got lucky?"

"This……"

After hearing what Ah Man said, Xuan Ling regained her composure and thought about what Qin Yu, the fourteenth prince of the Great Qin Dynasty, had just said.

It is not difficult to hear that Wei Heizi was not seen along the way, but instead it was thought that Wei Heizi had already reached the top of the mountain.

This is enough to conclude that Wei Heizi must have discovered a secret path on the way to the summit.

Otherwise, Qin Yu would never have been able to see Wei Heizi.

Of course, another possibility cannot be ruled out. That is, Qin Yu and the other cultivator caught up with Mo Hei on the way to the peak. They were tempted by the money and wanted to kill him for his money. Is this possibility impossible?

After all, every cultivator who entered the Ice God Palace ruins believed this, and there was a competitive relationship between them.

Because of this, when they all arrived outside the gate of the Ice God Palace ruins, they were all timid and no one wanted to be the first to step out, so as not to make things difficult for others.

If Qin Yu and another cultivator killed someone for the Taiyi Lantern on the rarely visited Ice God Peak, it would not be impossible.

Thinking of this, Ah Man turned his gaze to Qin Yu and Tai Qing, and asked in a stern tone:

"May I ask, Fourteenth Prince, did you really not see that Black Butterfly holding the Taiyi Lantern along the way?"

When talking about the four words "Taiyi Ran Deng", Ah Man's tone became more serious and meaningful.

Qin Yu also heard the hidden meaning in this sentence, frowned slightly, and said in great displeasure:

"Princess A'man, isn't your Nanzhao Kingdom the same? It's only a fourth-level cultivation nation. Although it's rumored that the Taiyi Burning Lantern could become an immortal weapon if ten were gathered, with only one, it's at best a heavenly-level spiritual weapon. My Great Qin Dynasty wouldn't bother to plot against it."

The young cultivator whom Qin Yu called Fellow Daoist Taiqing suddenly had an epiphany at this moment.

The young cultivator named Mo Die must have been tempted by the wealth and became greedy.

I don’t know how this person disappeared from the snow peak?

Could it be that he had discovered a secret passage? Or was he taking a risk and jumping off the snowy peak to avoid suspicion?

When Taiqing thought of this, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air in his heart, vaguely feeling that this boy was not simple at all.

To covet this Taiyi Lantern, he was willing to take such a huge risk!?

"Xiao Man, did you say that Wei Heizi really found the secret passage? Could it be that... could it be that..."

When Xuan Ling heard this and saw this, she knew that Qin Yu and the other person must not have encountered Wei Heizi who was holding the Taiyi Lantern.

In this case, unless Wei Heizi accidentally fell off the snowy peak, or by chance he found the rumored secret passage.

Otherwise, how could it disappear out of thin air on this snowy peak where there is only one road?

Following Xuan Ling's words, Ah Man looked towards the gate of the Ice God Palace ruins with a slightly hesitant look.

For a moment, I was still unsure.

At the same time, gathered on this peak, outside the gate of the Ice God Palace ruins, including Ying Xingjue, there were a total of twenty-seven cultivators. They had already realized something and could no longer remain calm.

"Fellow Daoist Ying, in my opinion, rather than waiting indefinitely for your enemy to reach the summit, it would be safer for us to join forces and find a way to enter the Ice God Palace ruins and seize the opportunity."

At this moment, a young and beautiful woman with a graceful figure, wearing a green and yellow dress and a red feather in her hair, walked to Ying Xingjue with light lotus steps and transmitted her voice through her telepathy.

This woman, who looked to be in her early twenties and was extremely charming and seductive, came from the White Fox clan of Lunzhou Continent in the Earth Spirit Realm. Her name was Qinghu.

Although Ying Xingjue was born into a demon clan, and a member of the already declining Blue Wolf clan, it is said that the predecessor of the Blue Wolf clan came from Sirius.

Because of this, the reason why Ying Xingjue is so outstanding in the Blue Wolf Clan must be related to the Sirius blood flowing in his body.

Ying Xingjue glanced around and saw a group of cultivators gathered outside the mountain gate of the Ice God Palace ruins. Among them were some older cultivators who had not yet established their foundation.

The reason why this green fox from the white fox clan of Lunzhou Continent took the initiative to team up with him was, firstly, they were both from the same demon clan, and secondly, they had some connection in the past.

After changing his mind, Ying Xingjue nodded in agreement.

At the same time, a handsome young monk holding a folding fan took the initiative to walk towards Ah Man and Xuan Ling who were riding the Fire Sheep Dragon Beast, and said with a warm smile:

"You two girls, don't worry. I'm Yue Jinchao, from the Beiming Sect of the Celestial Spirit Realm. I've come all the way down to the mortal realm specifically for the remains of the Ice God Palace. Coincidentally, I have a celestial silkworm with me, and I can definitely use its aura to identify the two girls' Taiyi Randeng."

When Xuan Ling heard this, she was like a drowning person who saw a savior. She was overjoyed and asked eagerly:

"Are you really that powerful, Heavenly Silkworm?"

Yue Jinchao, who claimed to be from the Beiming Sect of the Tianling Realm, nodded without hesitation:

"Of course. So as long as the two girls still have the remaining aura of the Taiyi Randeng, it will be fine."

"Humph!"

At this moment, a cold snort suddenly came from a young man in silver-white clothes, sneering:

"Fellow Daoist Yue, don't you know that Princess A'man of Nanzhao is the granddaughter of Li Xiaoyao, the poor elder of the Shushan Sword Sect in my Tianling Realm?"

If Mo He saw this person's clothes, he would definitely feel that they were somewhat familiar. They were extremely similar to the clothes of the Shushan Sword Sect that he belonged to, which was the small world where he lived in the demon spirit world.

It was precisely for this reason that when Mo Hei claimed to be from the Shushan Sword Sect, Ah Man did not doubt it.

But it was only because the clothes worn by Mo Hei were indeed somewhat similar to the attire of the disciples of the Shushan Sword Sect.

Yue Jinzhao remained calm and said with a gentle smile:

"Why do you say that, Fellow Daoist Xu Zhu? I, Yue, do want to help these two girls find their treasure."
