Shen Yuan Ring

Chapter 245 The Demon Lord Appears

"Old Yan, what's wrong with you?" Gu Yue rushed forward like a gust of wind, carefully helped him up, and settled him down to sit.

Gu Yueyan's face was filled with terror. His eyes seemed to have been devoured by a demon, leaving only two empty eye sockets. His body exuded a suffocating aura of death, and scarlet blood kept gushing from his mouth, like a blooming blood-red flower.

"I...I'm dying! Promise me! Please don't...don't explore it, inside...seals a...demon, he...awakens..."

Gu Yueyan's words were like a candle flickering in the wind; before he could finish speaking, the life force around him receded like the tide!

A powerful expert, who had just examined the boulder, fell like a shooting star, his body covered in blood.

Ah!

Gu Yuechong raised his head and roared, as furious as an angry lion. He was filled with resentment and wanted to take revenge, but he was helpless.

Like Gu Yueyan, he was a powerful figure at the Dao Master realm. If he could kill Gu Yueyan remotely while the object was sealed, he could easily eliminate him as well.

Sealed within this giant rock is a demon, and this demon is at least a Saint Realm expert, for only a Saint Realm expert can possess such terrifying power.

The devil is the common enemy of all!

Therefore, when he discovered that a demon lord who was still alive and had already awakened was sealed inside the boulder, he had no time to grieve. He immediately sent the news back to his family and also reported the heroic sacrifice of Gu Yueyan to the family.

Upon hearing this news, the Gu Yue family was on high alert and immediately convened an emergency meeting. They then made a decisive decision to send the family head to the Holy Land to seek help. At the same time, the elders of the family worked together to prevent the awakened Demon Lord from escaping.

Although the Demon Lord is trapped inside the boulder like a caged tiger, he has already awakened, and if left unchecked, he could break free at any time.

At that time, it will be a catastrophe of time.

Just as Gu Yuechong was sealing the Giant Stone Demon Lord, the Gu Yue family head arrived in Dan City like a bolt of lightning.

"I wonder what brings Patriarch Gu Yue to the Pill Hall today?"

"Palace Master Luo, the main reason for my uninvited visit today is..."

After several minutes of explanation from the Gu Yue family head, Luo Tian finally learned the purpose of his visit.

"I never expected the Demon Lord to appear in the world. Fortunately, he was trapped in the primordial stone, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable. Since this matter concerns the Demon Clan, how could our Pill Palace sit idly by? I will contact the Ancestor immediately and inform the other holy lands."

"Thanks, Lord Lao Luo!"

In a blink of an eye,

An elderly man with white hair and a youthful face descended silently into the Pill Hall like an immortal. He was the Saint Realm expert who remained in the mortal world in this generation of the Pill Hall.

"Greetings, Your Excellency!"

"I've met my ancestor!"

The old man waved his hand gently, as warm as a spring breeze, "The people from other holy lands will probably arrive in a few more days. To prevent any unforeseen events and the demons from escaping, I will go to Stone City with you first."

Gu Yue was overjoyed to hear this, but little did he expect that the powerful expert from the Pill Palace Saint Realm would leave with him ahead of schedule.

The earlier a Saint Realm expert arrives, the greater the safety of the family.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The Venerable Dan Dian said nothing more, and together with the Gu Yue Clan Head, they vanished from the spot like shooting stars.

……

At the same time, all the major holy lands in Zhongzhou received news that a demon lord had appeared in Stone City. Like a stone thrown into a still pond, the news spread like wildfire, and the major holy lands responded quickly.

The reason for uniting with the major holy sites is mainly to spread the risks, since those who can become saints are all shrewd and calculating.

They wouldn't be like reckless fools, charging into battle alone.

What's more, this time we're dealing with a public enemy that everyone wants to kill!

Not long after,

Like a gust of wind, the Holy Realm of the Pill Palace brought the Ancient Moon Clan Head back to Stone City.

"It is indeed the aura of a demon. Although it is faint, there is still a trace of demonic energy in the air. Fortunately, you did not have the Stone-Cutting Stone, otherwise everyone here would have been devoured by it!"

The Dan Dian Saint Realm expert arrived at the place where Gu Yuechong had set up his formation in a single stride.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass here!"

Gu Yuelong suddenly noticed that someone had silently broken into the defensive perimeter and immediately shouted angrily.

"Long'er, how dare you be so rude! This is a Venerable One from the Pill Palace! Quickly apologize! Venerable One, my son was unaware of your identity and spoke disrespectfully. I hope you will forgive my rudeness!"

Gu Yue's parents also arrived right after the Venerable One, but as soon as they arrived, they saw that their son dared to speak arrogantly and offend the Venerable One. They were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they quickly shouted to stop him.

"Ah, Your Excellency? This junior was blind to your greatness..."

The expert from the Pill Palace Saint Realm was not angry. He simply smiled and said calmly, "Ignorance is no excuse, and besides, he was just trying to prevent any accidents!"

"Hmph, to actually try to absorb the power of this raw stone to make up for its own defects right in front of me, is simply a pipe dream!"

Suddenly, Dan Dian Sheng Jing let out a cold snort, his right hand extending like lightning. Endless power of rules surged like a raging wave. The boulder tried to struggle, but all of this was in vain.

In an instant, everything returned to calm!

During the brief clash between the two Saint Realm experts, Gu Yuechong and his five powerful all sustained serious injuries and fell into a coma.

"Quickly take them down to heal their wounds; leave this to me. I never expected this demon to be so powerful. Luckily, I arrived in time. This demon is still sealed within the boulder. If it were to break free, I alone would find it difficult to contend with it."

"Huh? So powerful? Should we evacuate everyone in Stone City?"

"No need for now. This matter must be kept secret to avoid causing panic. We will eliminate him when people from other holy lands arrive! At that time, the crisis here will be resolved. Although I am no match for him and cannot kill him, I am more than capable of suppressing a demon lord who has no power to resist."

Upon hearing this, the head of the Guyue family felt as if he had been granted a pardon. He quickly bowed in gratitude and then led the Guyue family members away like a receding tide.

At this moment, the Holy Realm of the Pill Palace was suppressing the Demon Lord with all its might, while the Ancient Moon Stone Gambling Shop was still bustling with noise. People were immersed in a peaceful atmosphere, like ostriches, completely unaware of the impending danger.

Like everyone else, Ji Daoyi was busy fleecing others like a hungry wolf.

In just a few hours, with the help of Yueya, Ji Daoyi selected nearly twenty stones, much like a discerning eye judges horses.

These stones contain treasures, like mountains of gold, which will allow him to make a fortune!

To avoid drawing too much attention, two pieces of waste stone were deliberately mixed in with these twenty-odd stones, like fish eyes mixed with pearls.

In the end, Ji Daoyi and Wu De shared the cost of the twenty-odd stones.

Even so, Ji Daoyi still spent more than 4.5 million shi, almost emptying half of his wealth.
