Soon only a few demonic cultivators remained in the cave!

As for Old Demon Tong Teng and his group, they had already followed behind most of the demonic cultivators and quietly infiltrated the area!

The old man withered white eyes opened them, revealing one black eye and one white eye—a stark contrast to his previous cloudy appearance! Both eyes gleamed with a shrewd light!

"Painting Spirit, I finally found your trail, this time I won't let you escape!"

He murmured those words to himself, but the demonic cultivators behind him remained motionless, as if they hadn't heard them at all!

Only after the old man Bai Ku got up and left did they follow closely behind him and slowly leave the place!

When the place fell silent once again, a stranger suddenly appeared. It was the same person who had been following behind Chen Tianwen. He looked at the folding method in front of him with a look of confusion in his eyes!

Then, it suddenly disappeared into the cave!

As for how these demonic cultivators will choose among the eight passages, and what they will face, no one knows at the moment!

Chen Tianwen walked slowly through the passageway, cautiously exploring both sides of it.

The passageway was paved with large pieces of green jade, and it was very old! As soon as Chen Tianwen's finger touched it, the green jade turned into dust, revealing the rocks behind it!

"This Demon Lord Chenbi is certainly extravagant! This jade wasn't exactly common even tens of thousands of years ago! Why is he laying out so much of it?"

Chen Tianwen pondered deeply, when suddenly a guess popped into her mind!

"Could this jade, like the Star-Pointing Silkworm, be used to record information about the Painting Spirit? Or does it contain the method for refining the Painting Spirit?"

It wasn't impossible! A gentle breeze suddenly appeared in the passageway! This breeze slowly reached the jade, gently blowing away the dust that had accumulated for tens of thousands of years. But to Chen Tianwen's disappointment, there was nothing to be found on the jade!

"well!"

Chen Tianwen sighed softly. It seemed his guess was wrong. He should slowly begin searching for other clues. He walked away slowly.

In another passageway, when the three of them saw eight paths, they quickly reached an agreement: it would be too dangerous to separate on this Path of Eternal Calamity; it was better to stay together!

It wasn't easy for the treasure-hunting rat to be displayed in front of the demons, so the three of them randomly chose a passageway to enter!

Upon seeing the jade, Tong Teng Laomo also had a guess in his mind. He slowly removed the dust around him and found that there were indeed many things recorded on the jade, but they were not ancient demon language, but paintings!

Upon this discovery, all the demonic cultivators in the passageway swarmed around, chattering and speculating about what the drawing depicted!

Because what the demonic cultivators are doing isn't depicted in the painting, but rather a series of miniature landscapes appearing within this small painting.

Among the demonic cultivators, there were quite a few who had studied the Demon Lord Chenbi. A demonic cultivator with a noble and otherworldly temperament and extremely handsome appearance stepped forward. He wore a silver robe that looked very ordinary at first glance. However, upon closer inspection, one could see that the tiny stars embroidered on the silver robe were slowly rotating, which was quite magical!

This is clearly a robe crafted with the power of stars; it is probably the only one of its kind in the entire Demon Realm!

So this is Xing Liang, the young master of Wanxing Palace!

Xing Liang slowly walked forward and began to examine the paintings, comparing them with historical records. Soon, his expression became quite varied, revealing his excitement!

The paintings before them clearly concealed a secret treasure, related to the spirit of the paintings. Seeing the expression on his face, the demonic cultivators knew that the young palace master had made a discovery, but they couldn't understand it at all. The surrounding demonic cultivators exchanged glances and slowly surrounded the young palace master!

When the young palace master came to his senses, he found that his servants had already crowded around the perimeter, and he was completely unable to move!

The leader of the Hundred Demon Palace spoke coldly: "Young Master Xing, what exactly is depicted in this painting? Tell us! Look, everyone's waiting!"

Xing Liang scanned the surroundings, inwardly groaning. It was all his fault for being unprepared; if he didn't reveal his suspicions today, things might not end well! He valued his life highly. This painting spirit was indeed wonderful, but only a destined person could obtain it, and it seemed he wasn't that destined person!

As for whether those surrounding me are my destined ones, that's hard to say; survival is the most important thing!

So, with a frown, he began to explain the paintings to the demons!

It turns out that these murals on the jade explaining the Demon Lord of the Sinking Wall are not incantations or techniques, but formations!

These formations, combined with the murals, can contain all things in the world, appearing as independent spaces. However, these spaces cannot create life, nor can they conceal anything. Therefore, the Demon Lord of the Sinking Wall's research has actually failed!

But these murals also have another advantage! They can be integrated into one's own soul.

However, the Demon Lord Chenbi only merged one set of his divine soul into his own. When he merged the second set, his divine soul experienced side effects, sometimes becoming clear-headed and sometimes confused.

When he was lucid, he carved the sinking wall formation onto the bluestone; when he was confused, he simply locked himself up!

As for himself, he had strayed far from the secret realm he knew of, and no one knew where he had gone!

After hearing Xing Liang's words, the demonic cultivators in the passage remained silent, but they had already made their plans. When they encountered the painting spirit, they would directly control the mural. Although these murals were a bit cumbersome, they were a great tool for fighting enemies!

So, the elder of the hundred demons waved his hand, directly shooing the demons away from Xing Liang, and smiled, "Fortunately, Young Master Xing has answered our questions, but you still haven't told us how to control these murals!"

Xing Liang's face flushed red. He looked coldly at the person in front of him and said, "This mural only provides this much information. As for how to control the array within the mural, Demon Lord Chenbi didn't say. Elder, if you can decipher it, I wouldn't mind listening attentively!"

Upon seeing this, the Great Elder of the Hundred Demons burst into laughter; "Whether there's anything or nothing on this mural is clear to everyone! You can interpret it yourselves!"

As he spoke, he slightly turned his body and stood to the side. The demonic cultivators present all knew that there was nothing else on the bluestone, so they dispersed in twos and threes!

All that's left is Xingliang, panting heavily!

Although Xing Liang appeared very angry, there was one more thing he didn't say: there was a hint in the mural that the spirit in the painting might have already taken on human characteristics, a piece of information that made him shudder.

It seems that this time, no matter what I do, I have to take a backseat, and I even have to be careful around all the unfamiliar cultivators!

Thinking of this, he didn't look back at all, but quickly left with his servants.

As for the other demonic cultivators, nobody cared! Some returned the way they came, wanting to investigate all the surrounding bluestones, while others went straight in, afraid of falling behind!
