The group of three people and three demons walked forward for about ten more feet. No luminous pearls were embedded in the mountain walls along this stretch, but fortunately, the golden specks of light floating in the caves illuminated the path. Ahead, there were more luminous pearls, and they were about to reach their soft glow when, in this darkest part of the path, Ji Jue, who was at the front, suddenly tripped over something and stumbled forward.

Yu Ke quickly grabbed Ji Jue's arm to prevent him from falling. With Yu Ke's help, Ji Jue steadied himself. He looked up and saw that the passage ahead was suddenly filled with bright golden light. Along with the appearance of the golden light, the sound of chanting arose in the passage, and fist-sized demon-subduing talismans floated in the passage, radiating brilliant light.

Li Molin was startled. He pulled Liuli into his arms and radiated black demonic energy from all around him in an attempt to block the golden light that filled the passage. However, the golden light was all-pervasive and still carried small demon-subduing talismans around him.

More and more demon-subduing talismans appeared in the golden light, each spinning endlessly around a trajectory. Gradually, these demon-subduing talismans spun faster and faster, and the faint chanting grew louder and louder.

Buddhist demon-subduing talismans were originally created to subdue demons and monsters. Li Molin, Liuli, and the other three demons and monsters feared these demon-subduing talismans the most, not to mention that these demon-subduing talismans were also combined with the loud chanting of Buddhist mantras.

Liuli felt a splitting headache. She buried her face in Li Molin's arms, her brows furrowed, and mumbled, "My head hurts so much...it hurts. These sounds are so annoying...Li Molin, please stop it, please stop it..."

Ah Hua huddled in Liu Li's arms, her two front paws tightly covering her ears, slightly blocking out the chanting, but her head still throbbed with pain.

Li Molin's head was also spinning from the chanting. He forced himself to hold Liuli even tighter, enduring the headache. He tried to move forward, but the golden light in the passage was so thick that he could barely walk.

Yu Ke, Ji Jue, and Lang Yuan, who were standing to the side, were all pale-faced and staggering, looking quite disheveled.

Li Molin looked up ahead and saw that the way out was just a dozen or so feet away under the golden light. However, judging from the current situation, the three of them and the three demons would definitely not be able to get out of the area covered by the golden light. They would probably be stunned by the chanting before they even got halfway there. If they stayed there, they would surely die.

Liuli repeatedly pleaded for help, which pained Li Molin deeply. He frowned and pondered for a moment, then a flash of blood-red light appeared in his hand, revealing a dark red trident over ten feet long. He slowly raised his hand, struggling to lift the trident high. At that moment, countless small demon-subduing talismans surged towards Li Molin's temples, entering his brain from his left temple and exiting from his right.

Li Molin's brows furrowed suddenly. He felt a loud chanting sound pierce his brain like a sharp thorn. The sharp pain made him stumble and almost fall to the ground. But when he thought of Liuli in his arms, he endured the pain. His face turned pale and bloodless.

His vision blurred in waves, and his hand, which he held high with the trident, trembled unsteadily.

“Li Molin…” Liuli’s voice reached my ears, sounding extremely weak.

Li Molin gritted his teeth and swung the trident down with all his might.

The trajectory of the trident left a trail of cold, blood-red light, which condensed into needle-sized sharp points that shot out in all directions, quickly enveloping the entire passage.

"Whoosh!" Countless crimson rays shot back and forth through the passage, piercing the numerous demon-subduing talismans to dust. As the demon-subduing talismans disappeared one after another, the chanting in the passage gradually faded away and was no longer heard.

Yu Ke, Ji Jue, and Lang Yuan had already leaned against the cave wall. As the chanting subsided, the two humans and one demon, though still frowning, looked much better.

The annoying sound finally disappeared, and Liuli relaxed, closing her eyes and leaning against Li Molin.

Li Molin held Liuli in one arm, while his other hand, which had been gripping the trident, fell limply to his side. Several wounds had split open at the base of his thumb, and blood was flowing out, pooling and dripping to the ground. He looked unwell; his face was pale, his lips bloodless, and he was breathing heavily, his legs unsteady. If he hadn't been holding Liuli, he probably would have collapsed to the ground long ago.

"Young Master!" Yu Ke was the first to come to his senses. He vaguely saw Li Molin's appearance and hurriedly staggered over, asking with concern, "Is Young Master alright?"

"Li Molin?" Liuli gradually came to her senses. She crawled out of Li Molin's arms, took a step back, looked up at his face, and frowned. She asked in a low voice, "Are you alright, Li Molin?"

A flash of blood appeared on Li Molin's hand, and the trident vanished silently. He pulled his injured right hand back into his wide sleeve, a pale smile playing on his lips. He slowly shook his head and said, "I'm fine."

Before he could finish speaking, he swayed uncontrollably. Yu Ke quickly steadied him.

Liuli looked at Li Molin gratefully and said sincerely, "Li Molin, thank you for saving us."

"You're welcome."

Li Molin took a deep breath. Just as he was about to walk forward, he saw Liuli reach into a hidden pouch at her waist, rummage around for a while, and pull out a jade bottle. She took out a black pill, handed it to him, and said, "Take one of these Rejuvenation Pills."

"Okay." Li Molin smiled gently, took the pill and swallowed it. He immediately felt a warm current flow from his mouth throughout his body, and the wound on the web of his right hand healed instantly. He took a deep breath, stood up and said, "Let's go."

Ji Jue and Lang Yuan shook their heads and walked over to follow behind Li Molin. Ji Jue quickly took two steps to Li Molin's side and asked with concern, "Young Master, are you alright?"

"It's nothing," Li Molin replied casually as he walked away.

Lang Yuan bowed slightly behind Li Molin and said, "Thank you for saving me, young master."

Li Molin turned his head and smiled slightly, remaining silent.

Liuli stayed behind last. She looked down at the listless Ahua in her arms and asked with concern, "Ahua, are you alright?"

"Meow." Ahua responded weakly, shaking her head and saying, "I'm fine, sister, let's go quickly."

Liuli nodded and jogged a few steps to catch up.
