Chapter 365: Demon World Relics (2)
A small street on the edge of the demon world
An ordinary-looking female pig demon was walking on the street. Her cultivation was not strong enough, so her pink pig ears trembled in the wind. Beside her were a bull demon with horns and an unknown demon cultivator with a face covered in thorns.
After arriving at the inn and setting up a barrier with the demon cultivators, the female pig demon gritted her teeth and asked, "Why are they pig ears?"
The unknown demon cultivator coughed and said, "Young Master said pink organs are best, as this is more suitable for a woman. I thought pig ears would look better than pig noses."
Her: "...Pink, you only thought of pigs?"
"Pigs are the least conspicuous, and their scent is easier to imitate. We can't be too arrogant on this trip."
The Bull Demon glanced at the ear and said, "It's actually quite nice."
The pig demon asked with a wooden face, "Does it hurt when you say this?"
"It's okay."
The unknown demon cultivator coughed again and asked, "Miss, is there any news from Xiao Hu?"
The pig demon, Tao Zi, said, "Not yet, keep waiting."
The moment they stepped into the demon world, the little fox left the three of them behind on the pretext of getting some information, and also told them to fake their demon identities to avoid being hunted down.
Their current appearance is that of a Mahayana cultivator, so they can definitely deceive low- and middle-level demons.
After waiting for a while, the little fox finally came. The moment it pushed the door open, it looked at Tao Zi's pig ears and laughed.
Tao Zi closed the door expressionlessly, grabbed the dog by the scruff of the neck, and said, "Is it funny?"
It quickly suppressed its smile and said, "Not bad. By the way, how did you get such an identity?"
She said with a gloomy face, "Someone else did it. Time was tight at the time, so I didn't pay much attention. Don't just ask these questions. Where's the news?"
The little fox broke free from her hand, jumped onto the table, and said, "We came at the perfect time. The Xiu Zi Ruins will be open tomorrow, which saves me the trouble of finding a way to force you in."
Tao Zi calculated the time and asked, "You are quite familiar with the demon world. How long does it take to get to the ruins from here?"
It said, "The entrance to the Xiu Zi Ruins is located in various places in the demon world. Just wait."
Cheng Wuchou was stunned for a moment and asked, "The Xiu Zi ruins actually span the demon world?"
The little fox stood on the table, its calm tone barely concealing its pride. "Xiu Zi Yao Zun was a demigod. His remains are located in an illusory space, which was also his residence during his lifetime. Once the remains are opened, the entrance will automatically appear in a place with dense demonic energy."
The Mahayana cultivator nodded silently, and added, "It is said that the demon god also perished in the Xiu Zi Ruins."
Cheng Wuchou was even more surprised and asked, "Demon God?"
Tao Zi said: "Xiu Zi Yaozun's partner, ascended to become a god, and because of the appearance of aliens, he was forced to return to the mainland to block the fatal attack for the demons."
He began to feel that his mind was confused, frowned, and said, "According to the rules of heaven, after a cultivator ascends, he cannot return to the continent, even if the continent is destroyed."
The little fox said lazily, "Even rules have loopholes. Xiu Zi Yao Zun was once seriously injured and on the verge of death. To save his mate, the Demon God poured the power of his entire clan into developing an elixir called the Life Elixir. It is divided into a Child and Mother Elixir. The cultivator who takes the Child Elixir will share the lifespan of the cultivator who took the Mother Elixir, but the price is that they cannot ascend to the Immortal Realm in this lifetime. The connection between the Child and Mother Elixir cannot be severed, not even by the laws of nature. The Demon God used this connection to forcibly return to the mainland."
Cheng Wuchou blinked his eyes and said belatedly, "Is this the life-saving medicine that Master mentioned? But hasn't the medicine been taken?"
Tao Zi nodded slowly and said, "The elixir is of extremely high grade and has the ability to resurrect. It is said that it can be transformed into a new medicine for others to use."
The little fox continued, "Even though the Demon God rushed back to save the demon race, the Xiu Zi Demon Lord still died. Because of their shared lifespan, many cultivators speculate that the Demon God has also fallen. For this reason, every time the Xiu Zi Ruins are opened, it is a major event for the demon race. Tao Zi, you must not cause trouble in there, or I will die too."
"I understand." Tao Zi asked again, "But I'm a little confused. Could it be that Xiu Zi Yao Zun died due to lack of strength?"
The little fox was silent, hesitated for a moment, and said, "The elders of the clan said that when Demon Venerable Xiu Zi fell, there were no signs. It was more like..."
Everyone suddenly realized what was going on. She wanted to ask more questions, but it refused to say anything: "Tao Zi, don't ask anymore. We demons only know a few things. How can we tell you everything?"
Tao Zi also followed its wishes so as not to annoy it.
On the second day, a whirlpool appeared above the demon world.
The little fox looked up and said, "The entrance is open. The first group to go in are all heroes and powerful people in the demon world. We should go in later, otherwise the possibility of being discovered will increase."
They waited patiently until all the monsters that should enter this demon world had entered before they entered.
When they arrived at the demon world, the scene that came into their faces shocked even the Mahayana stage.
At first glance, the corpses of monsters were connected together, the sky in the ruins was blood red, and the strong smell of blood was nauseating.
Tao Zi asked in disbelief: "Little fox, are you guys in the demon world ruins so crazy?"
Cheng Wuchou echoed his sister's words: "I've heard that demons would devour each other, but I didn't expect it to be so crazy."
"We're not that crazy!" The little fox's fur exploded as it leaped onto corpse after corpse, turning over each one before saying gravely, "It's an alien invasion. Never mind. I'll take you directly to the center of the ruins and prepare for battle."
Tao Zi frowned and asked, "Don't you need to go through any tests or anything?"
"Xiu Zi Yao Zun was born from a nine-tailed fox, so we younger generations naturally have it easier. Don't ask so many questions, just follow me."
She nodded calmly, but she didn't forget her original purpose: "Is it possible that the life-saving medicine is in the center of the ruins?"
"I don't know. We have searched the entire center of the ruins, but we haven't found that medicine. I originally wanted to take you somewhere else to look, but now the most important thing is to eliminate the alien race, otherwise we won't be able to stay in this ruins."
The group hurriedly followed the little fox to the center. When they arrived at the center, they saw an extremely strange scene.
The huge palace gate was tightly closed. Near the palace were balls of golden mist, which contained monsters that were still breathing. The dead monsters were lying on the ground with their eyes wide open, unable to close their eyes in death.
Tao Zi and the other two were relatively calm, but the little fox was going crazy. He pointed at several balls of golden mist and said anxiously, "Those are my elders and clansmen!"
Cheng Wuchou ignored this, gathered his thoughts, and said, "Azi, are we going to enter the golden mist?"
She followed her intuition and said, "We must go in."
As for how to get in, the three of them all looked at the little fox. It turned around and around, and finally said, "I'll find a way."
