I have the face of a great demon.
Chapter 220 Revisiting the Stone Coffin
Liu Xingchen, Ye Sisi, and Tie Zhu fled on their way to safety.
To avoid being captured by the cultivators, they dared not fly, but only ran in the forest or flew short distances at low altitudes.
They moved cautiously through the dense woods, glancing back frequently to keep a watchful eye on their surroundings.
Their clothes were torn by tree branches, and their faces were covered in mud and sweat, but they did not stop, because they knew that their pursuers were not far behind them.
From a distance, the imposing outline of Broken Soul Mountain can already be seen.
The Broken Soul Mountain stands majestically, stretching for thousands of miles. Its summit is shrouded in thick clouds and mist, making it appear mysterious and unpredictable.
The mountain is covered with jagged rocks, as if carved by nature's masterful hand, creating breathtaking scenes.
On the mountainside, dense forests stretch like a green ocean, surging with waves, and the occasional chirping of birds and roars of beasts add a touch of wildness.
As the outline of Broken Soul Mountain gradually became clear, a hint of joy flashed in the eyes of the three.
Liu Xingchen couldn't help but whisper, "Judging from the mountain's terrain, as long as we can cross Broken Soul Mountain, we should be able to shake off those annoying pursuers."
Although Ye Sisi breathed a sigh of relief, there was still a trace of worry in her eyes. She reminded her, "Think it over. After we pass Broken Soul Mountain, the pursuers will be gone, but the people of the demonic path may be even more dangerous. The people of the demonic path are not like those pursuers. They are cruel and ruthless. We cannot let our guard down."
Tie Zhu was fearless, and even though he was about to step into the territory of the demonic path, he was not afraid at all: "What's there to be afraid of? The people of the demonic path don't have two more hands than us. No matter how many come, I'll knock them all away with one punch."
Ye Sisi rolled her eyes at the simpleton and looked at Liu Xingchen, who was clearly the backbone of the team.
Liu Xingchen took a deep breath, a resolute glint in his eyes: "There's no turning back now. We can only grit our teeth and push forward, seeking survival in the territory of the demonic path. I believe that as long as we are united, nothing can defeat us."
"Alright, then let's brave the Broken Soul Mountain together and see just how powerful the demonic cultivators really are!" Tie Zhu clenched his fist, his eyes flashing with fighting spirit.
Ye Sisi tightened her grip on the sword: "Let's go. Whatever lies ahead, we'll face it together."
Just then, a series of rapid whooshing sounds came from behind.
The three exchanged a glance, knowing that more pursuers were on their way.
They took off running, and once again engaged in a chase with their pursuers.
As he ran, Liu Xingchen noticed something was wrong. The pursuers didn't seem to be closing in. Their speed had slowed down considerably, and their faces showed hesitation and apprehension.
Liu Xingchen's heart skipped a beat; he vaguely heard the pursuers talking in hushed tones.
"The Broken Soul Mountain is just ahead."
"What's there to be afraid of about Broken Soul Mountain? As long as we don't cross it, it's not the territory of the demonic path."
"That being said, there are also people from the demonic path who frequent this place."
"The most terrifying thing is that big demon. He once appeared in the cave at the foot of the mountain."
"So you're afraid of the great demon."
"Aren't you afraid? Although this place has been explored by the Ten Great Immortal Sects and the Demonic Sect, and the Great Demon is no longer inside, who can guarantee that he won't come here again?"
Upon hearing these words, Liu Xingchen's heart skipped a beat. Could the cave where the great demon had once appeared be the same cave where he rose from the stone coffin and began his journey to another world?
Upon realizing this, Liu Xingchen immediately turned around and attacked the pursuers.
"Brother Xingchen, what are you doing?"
"I have something important to do. Help me stop these pursuers."
Without asking any further questions, Tie Zhu and Ye Sisi turned around and attacked the pursuers.
These pursuers were not highly skilled; their task was simply to stay far behind and find out the three's movements.
As soon as Liu Xingchen and his two companions returned, they slaughtered the pursuers, leaving them utterly defeated and quickly brought to the ground.
Liu Xingchen grabbed the cultivator who had just mentioned the cave and subdued him in a vital spot.
"What, what are you going to do? Let me go!" The cultivator struggled in terror, his voice trembling, his eyes filled with panic.
Liu Xingchen said coldly, "If you want to live, take us to that cave, otherwise..."
He deliberately left his sentence unfinished, giving the cultivator a cold look before increasing the pressure in his hand.
The cultivator shuddered at Liu Xingchen's gaze. He swallowed hard and asked in a trembling voice, "To that cave? The cave where the great demon appeared?"
After receiving Liu Xingchen's affirmation, he trembled even more violently.
"So you're going to meet up with the Great Demon King after all. I'm not going; if I run into him, I'm doomed."
"If you don't go, you'll die right now. Come on, once we get to the cave, I'll let you go."
Tie Zhu, watching from the side, couldn't help but frown and asked in confusion, "Brother Xingchen, why do we suddenly want to go to the cave where the great demon appeared?"
Ye Sisi looked at Liu Xingchen with a puzzled expression, waiting for an answer.
"It's not convenient here, let's talk about it when we get there."
So the three of them escorted the cultivator and led the way. Before long, they arrived at a cave at the foot of Broken Soul Mountain.
Liu Xingchen knocked the cultivator unconscious with a punch, threw him into the bushes, and then said to Tie Zhu and the other man:
"This might be the cave where I was first mistaken for the Great Demon. I want to come and see if there are any clues that can help me find out why I am so similar to the Great Demon."
Tie Zhu and his companion then realized that this was indeed a major event, and it was worthwhile to take the time to explore it, even with the pursuers closing in.
Liu Xingchen and his two companions stepped into the mysterious cave at the foot of Broken Soul Mountain.
The cave was cold and damp, with a musty smell permeating the air, making one feel oppressed.
They continued along the rugged cave passages, and the deeper they went, the dimmer the light became. They could only rely on the light emitted by their spells to illuminate the path ahead.
Finally, they reached the deepest part of the cave.
The space here is relatively open, but it is even more gloomy and terrifying.
In the dim light, Liu Xingchen saw the stone coffin.
The stone coffin lay quietly on the ground, its surface covered with the marks of time, appearing ancient and mysterious.
Its shape and size were exactly the same as the stone coffin in Liu Xingchen's memory, and even the patterns on it were exactly the same.
Upon seeing the stone coffin, Liu Xingchen felt a surge of complex emotions.
This is the stone coffin he lay in when he was acting.
At that time, he woke up in the stone coffin and saw two cultivators flying around. He was lucky enough to obtain a spirit ghost, but then disappeared inexplicably and went to Lingshui Town.
Now, seeing this stone coffin again, it's as if everything has returned to that tense and thrilling moment.
A hint of emotion flashed in his eyes as he slowly stepped forward and gently stroked the surface of the stone coffin.
The stone coffin felt cold and hard to the touch, and several cracks had appeared on its walls, as if telling the story of the vicissitudes of time it had endured.
Liu Xingchen took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and prepared to open the stone coffin to find clues that could tell him the truth.
