415 The Demon Lord's True Body in the Depths of the Spiritual Demon Realm
The monster did not make Taoist Master Zhuyue wait for long before it successfully improved its cultivation to the fusion stage.
But it did not stop there, and continued to absorb the evil thoughts and mist around it.
Chu Yu whispered, "I think this monster has the potential to cross the tribulation period."
"You don't need to say such an obvious thing." Mu Zisong rolled his eyes at him and looked at Taoist Zhuyue, not understanding why his father-in-law was so patient.
The advancement from the Fusion Stage to the Tribulation Stage is a long process, especially since everyone feels the threat from this monster, and everyone has to suppress their murderous intent.
Finally, after passing the peak of the fusion stage, the monster's cultivation reached the tribulation stage.
The invisible surge of malice pounced upon everyone present, trying to arouse the deepest malice in their hearts and attack every inch of their defenses.
"I'm going to kill it!" Ao Yu stretched out his dragon claws irritably and wanted to pounce on it, but a force flew from behind them.
It was a drop of pure spiritual power in the shape of a water drop.
The spiritual power of the water droplet hit the monster in the Tribulation Period faster than Ao Yu. The monster disintegrated on the spot and disappeared directly, and even the evil thoughts in its body did not have a chance to do evil again.
Everyone looked in disbelief towards the source of the water droplet's spiritual power, and could only see the tall figure holding a gun.
"Sure enough." Taoist Master Zhuyue's frown finally relaxed a little.
He had always suspected that the reason there were no Tribulation Crossing-level monsters here was because they had been dealt with in advance. Now that he saw this scene with his own eyes, he finally confirmed his thoughts.
Ao Yu was surprised at the other party's strength and asked in a low voice: "Is that the Demon Lord?"
"It should be." Taoist Master Zhuyue thought for a moment and stepped forward.
The second elder followed without thinking.
The others looked at each other and followed one after another.
The Mahayana cultivators have a high level of cultivation. If they really have murderous intentions towards them, it would be too late for them to escape now.
After walking a few steps, they felt an invisible force hindering their progress.
The closer you get to the figure, the stronger this force becomes.
Only Taoist Master Zhuyue and the Second Elder were not affected.
Due to the huge gap in their cultivation levels, Mu Zisong and his companions were forced to stop. They stood there anxiously watching Taoist Master Zhuyue and the Second Elder approaching the figure.
By the time the two of them arrived next to the figure, Mu Zisong and the others' hearts were in their throats.
Little did they know that Taoist Master Zhuyue and the Second Elder were also like this.
Penetrating the thick fog, deep in the monster-infested realm of spirits and demons, they saw a tall figure that was not a living person, but a lifelike stone sculpture.
The stone sculpture has a pointed horn on its head, a tall and sturdy body, an extremely handsome face, and a sharp spear in his hand, but his eyes are closed and his brows are tightly furrowed, as if he is in extreme pain.
The Second Elder and Daoist Master Zhuyue exchanged a glance and tentatively called out, "Your Majesty the Demon Master?"
The stone sculpture did not respond.
The second elder summoned up the courage to shout again: "Jiang Xiao?"
The stone sculpture still did not move at all.
The second elder boldly poked the stone sculpture's arm, but could only touch the cold stone.
The evil thoughts emanating from the armor took the opportunity to entangle her. Taoist Master Zhuyue was about to help when another drop of spiritual power burst out from the stone sculpture, defeating the evil thoughts.
This made the Second Elder and Taoist Master Zhuyue open their eyes wide in surprise, and at the same time took a big step back to show their respect for the Mahayana Demon Lord.
The master and disciple waited for a while, but did not see any unusual movement of the stone sculpture.
The second elder was confused and secretly asked Daoist Master Zhuyue: "Master, what is going on? Is there any remnant of Jiang Xiao's spirit in the stone sculpture?"
Taoist Master Zhuyue said thoughtfully: "From the way he saved you just now, there should be at least some consciousness left in this stone sculpture, but I don't know how much consciousness is left. As for the soul... it's hard to say."
Thinking of the lively and active appearance of Xiao Jiangxiao from Tianshui Sect, Taoist Master Zhuyue found it difficult to judge whether the Demon Lord had split his own soul.
The master and disciple were thinking about it when they suddenly heard a strange clicking sound.
They both turned their eyes to the stone sculpture in front of them at the same time, and sure enough, a crack appeared on the face of the stone sculpture.
“This should have nothing to do with me, right?” The Second Elder asked nervously. Before he could finish his words, Daoist Master Zhuyue grabbed him by the collar and led him a long distance away: “Retreat!”
The sounds of breaking stones and rubbing against gravel continued to be heard. Everyone retreated at a high speed, but was blocked by a barrier.
Chu Yu released his spiritual sense, his face changed drastically: "The surroundings are blocked, we can't get out!"
"What did you and your master do?" Qiu Yeluo asked.
"We didn't do anything, he survived on his own." The second elder was brainstorming frantically, wondering if the awakened Demon Lord had any relevant memories of his life in Tianshui Sect.
In just a few breaths, the stone sculpture that was as still as a mountain turned around slowly and faced them.
The eyes of the stone carving were not open, but everyone could feel the gaze from these eyes.
Just one glance made them lose the ability to move, as if they were nailed to the spot.
Fine cracks covered the entire body of the stone sculpture, but not a single piece of stone fell off, as if the stone sculpture itself was still fighting its final battle with the sealing power.
The spear, which had also turned into a stone sculpture due to the seal, was raised up little by little, with the sharp tip of the spear pointed at Taoist Zhuyue and the others. Turbulent evil thoughts surged out from the tip of the spear and headed straight for them.
At that moment, all the immobile Tribulation Crossing cultivators felt death approaching.
Just as the evil thought was about to surge into the body of Taoist Master Zhuyue, who was at the front, a ray of light burst out from the second elder's hand, piercing through the evil thought.
A tuft of soft black hair floated out from her palm and spontaneously ignited in the air without fire, igniting all the evil thoughts that enveloped everyone.
The ball of fire spread rapidly in all directions, igniting all evil thoughts within a radius of hundreds of miles with its extremely refined and powerful spiritual power.
Suddenly, flames shot up into the sky in the spiritual and demonic realm that was shrouded in thick fog all year round.
The stone sculpture surrounded by red flames stood still, letting out a sharp roar that sounded like anger, fear, or even hysteria of despair.
The stone sculpture raised his gun again, trying to disperse the flames approaching him.
However, as soon as the flame touched his body, it flowed directly into his body and merged with him.
The surrounding flames formed a waterfall like flowing water, rushing into the stone sculpture.
Red flames flickered along the cracks in the stone sculpture. Amid the crackling sound of the burning fire, even more shrill and terrifying roars emanated from the stone sculpture. One could even vaguely hear hoarse, layered curses.
"Jiang Xiao, you will die a horrible death!"
"I'm going to kill you! Kill you, ahhhhhhhhh!"
"Let me out! You also have evil thoughts. What right do you have to seal us?"
"This world deserves to die! Everyone deserves to die! I will kill them all!"
…
The curses resounded through the heavens and the earth, as if the ugliest thoughts had broken through ethics and morals and were displayed before the public without any concealment.
Compared with the evil thoughts now, the evil thoughts that just surged out of the monster's body are completely insignificant.
