2242: Chapter 2232: Demon-Sealed Sword 2242: Chapter 2232: Demon-Sealed Sword The earth-yellow little demon was still sound asleep, it seemed that a day in this monster’s life was nothing but eating and sleeping.
Bai Mu tapped the body of the earth-yellow little demon, waking it from its slumber.
Its massive head shook as the earth-yellow little demon looked down at the two people on the ground.
Ever since that day when they left, it had been sleeping here.
Seeing Bai Mu, its gaze brightened, as it seemed to think it was going to be rescued.
Of course, seeing Long Yan made its head involuntarily shrink a little.
Back then, Long Yan was too terrifying, nearly chopping it to pieces.
After taking the antidote, the gigantic body of the earth-yellow little demon slowly began to shrink, quickly reducing to about the height of a person, and the blocked road was cleared as well.
“Thank you both.”
Being stuck in the wall was certainly uncomfortable, after expressing its gratitude to the two people it turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared.
Seeing Long Yan’s somewhat astonished expression, Bai Mu explained with a smile.
This earth-colored demon was a rather peaceful type of monster, skilled in some earth escape techniques.
This was just a minor episode, the two continued walking downward.
However, Long Yan was puzzled, why they didn’t also send the peaceful monsters inside the Demon-Sealed Tower into the inner world.
To this question, Bai Mu gave a simple answer, it was just because their cultivation base wasn’t enough.
Only when a monster has cultivated into a human form would it qualify to enter the inner world.
This was also set by Qing Luo, now it seems likely that the purpose was to exclude those monsters with insufficient strength from trading with the Corpse King, Qing Luo had gained prestige, and the Corpse King got what he wanted from the Blood Pool, truly killing two birds with one stone.
Bai Mu revealed a helpless bitter smile, even racking his brains he couldn’t have imagined that Qing Luo would actually trade with zombies by selling out his own kind, this matter was indeed a bit shocking.
On the road ahead, although numerous monsters roamed, they did not launch attacks on the two people.
Long Yan felt that, compared to the previously war-torn Three Cities, it was much more peaceful inside the Demon-Sealed Tower.
Even though the monsters here were just wandering around, it was still much better than losing their lives in chaos.
Bai Mu also found out the cause of his parents’ deaths in Qing Luo’s collection of books; it was because they had once witnessed the deal between the Corpse King and Qing Luo, so Qing Luo killed them to silence them, it was just that simple of a reason.
It took him a hundred years to find out, which left Bai Mu with a sense of deep melancholy.
Until they reached the second to last layer, the surrounding environment began to change drastically.
The scenery became eerily sinister, filled with a violent aura.
The entire scene was arranged according to the Eight Diagrams of Taiji, at the center was a small sphere emitting a yellow glow.
It seemed that the second to last layer also had a guardian monster.
Bai Mu felt a hair-raising aura emanating from the yellow sphere.
As the two stepped into this final layer, cracks began to appear on the surface of the yellow sphere.
As they approached, the cracks on the yellow sphere grew larger, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth around started to erupt at different scales.
After the orb cracked open, a creature with wings on its back slowly walked out from inside, its pair of crimson eyes staring intently at the two people, its body resembling a large bird.
“What is this thing?”
Even Bai Mu of the Demon Race didn’t recognize the monster in front of him, nor had he ever seen such a creature.
It let out a piercing shriek from its beak and charged towards the two people.
Its wings, sharp as blades, viciously struck towards them, attempting to crush the two into pieces.
A thick scent of blood wafted through the air.
The fierce wind blew Long Yan’s hair, his clothes fluttering without wind, and without fear, the Lu Xian Sword thrust towards the giant bird’s wing, penetrating it as if tearing through decayed wood.
If it were the old Long Yan, he might have struggled against this giant bird, but now, under the power of his Half-Step Divine Emperor strength, the Lu Xian Sword was the most terrifying force in this space.
A massive Sword Light swept across, and the wing was sliced into two by Long Yan’s sword.
The giant bird cried out in agony.
A flash of cold light flickered in Long Yan’s eyes as an overwhelming starry Sword aura emitted from the Lu Xian Sword, instantly bisecting the giant bird’s massive body.
It gently landed on the ground, and even though it was bisected, the giant bird didn’t completely die yet, its massive body trembling on the ground.
A faint Golden Light connected to the other half of the bird’s body.
Long Yan quickly stepped forward, his Lu Xian Sword striking the Golden Light.
A miserable scream came from the bird’s beak, and it lay motionless on the ground.
The monster actually possessed remarkable strength; the Golden Light from just now could have instantly healed all of its injuries if it had reached its other half.
But it was also its misfortune to encounter Long Yan.
The White Tiger’s Secret is a Soul Profundity, nearly all True Qi flows could not escape Long Yan’s eyes.
This was simply the bird’s fate.
Seeing that the guardian monster of this level was so easily handled by Long Yan, Bai Mu’s face was covered in shock.
The guardian monsters on each level of the Demon Suppressing Tower were very powerful.
Although he didn’t know the name of the monster sliced into two by Long Yan, judging by the fierce wind from its attack, it was definitely not simple to have been settled so easily by Long Yan.
Bai Mu’s confidence in subduing the Fire Demon Beast grew a bit more.
There was no change in Long Yan’s face; he just happened to see the flow of Monster Air in this monster.
If it had been someone else, perhaps they would have had to struggle with this creature.
The Bishui Golden-eyed Beast and Ice Bird from before were perfect examples.
There were no more treasure chests along the way; it seems even Feng Tianlu had never reached this layer.
Long Yan simply thought this and stepped onto the final layer.
This last layer was completely different from the previous ones, the land space here was abnormally narrow, with most of the area being a continuously flowing Blood River.
Arriving here, rumored to be the territory of the Blood Demon Emperor, Bai Mu felt uncomfortable all over, the back of his head tingling.
“That must be the Demon-Sealed Sword, right?”
Long Yan saw a long sword suspended in the air, ordinary looking, but upon closer observation, one would find that it harbored a mysterious power, with a rainbow glow continuously flowing from the blade.
His whole body leapt into the air, and Long Yan wanted to take the Demon-Sealed Sword into his hands, a crimson light gently enveloping the sword’s body, he didn’t expect it to be so simple, a smile appeared on Long Yan’s face.
Just as Long Yan’s hand was about to touch the Demon-Sealed Sword, a huge wave surged up from the Blood River, Long Yan dared not touch the Blood River, his whole body staying suspended in midair.
“Who are you?”
