One day a month later, the clear sky in Dongzhou suddenly turned pitch black.
Beneath the sky, the sound of the tide was heard, and even mortals living in the secular world could hear it clearly.
This strange scene came and went quickly. After just a few breaths, everything returned to normal, as if the darkness was just an illusion.
However, when the elders in the world of cultivation saw this scene, they all knew what was going on.
Ghost Stream, the tide is receding.
Demon King Valley.
Wang Yue'er pushed open the door and saw the figure sitting cross-legged in front of the back door. She pursed her lips and called softly, "Xiang Sheng, it's time."
Xiang Sheng's eyelashes trembled slightly and he opened his eyes.
She stroked the sword between her knees with her bare hands, stood up and walked out the door without saying a word.
Soon, Wang Yue'er led Xiang Sheng through a long gravel path behind the village and came to a brightly lit cave.
This cave was artificially excavated and is very spacious. In the middle of the cave, there is an altar. The old village chief inserted the incense stick into the incense burner, and the curling sandalwood fragrance wafted out from the central altar, refreshing the heart.
In the open space in front of the altar, there was a teleportation array painted, and it was different from the teleportation arrays Xiang Sheng had seen before. The array pattern was a strange dark red color.
Xiang Sheng withdrew his gaze, walked behind the old village chief, and respectfully addressed him, "Senior."
The old village chief slowly performed the sacrificial ceremony, then turned around and said slowly, "You are here."
He stepped down from the altar, waved his sleeves, and several rays of spiritual light shot out, disappearing into the dark red formation. He sighed softly, "This place hasn't been used for a long time. Go, stand on the teleportation array. This teleportation array was set up by Guijian. When you get there, you should find a soul-destroying maze."
As he spoke, the old village chief handed over an ancient jade slip. "This contains the exit to the Soul Demon Labyrinth. However, the terrain in the Ghost Gorge is constantly changing. The jade slip can only be used as a reference and should not be fully trusted."
"Junior understands."
Xiang Sheng took the jade slip. The old village chief shook his sleeves and took out a palm-sized statue that looked like a tiger.
Xiang Sheng only took one look and felt a chill in his heart, as if he was being stared at by a living creature.
"This is what you rely on on this journey, the statue of our tribe."
The old village chief said solemnly, "The statue of our tribe must not be desecrated, nor can it be stored in a storage ring. You must sincerely sense it and feed it with your own blood, otherwise the statue will not find the location of the Yuan embryo for you."
Xiang Sheng nodded slightly, took it carefully, turned around and was about to walk into the formation, but his steps paused slightly. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Why is Wang Tuo not here?"
"he?"
The old village chief shook his head and chuckled, his smile mostly bitter. "This is the place he dislikes the most in this entire secret realm. He won't come here."
Xiang Sheng was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why?"
She thought the old village chief would not answer, but he just sighed and said bluntly: "Three thousand years ago, Wang Tuo's parents left from here and never returned."
"Wang Tuo's parents are also in Guijian?"
Xiang Sheng was shocked.
Over the past three thousand years, the Black Tide of Ghost Stream has risen countless times. Wang Tuo's parents must have long since...
The old village chief didn't say anything else. He raised his hand and calculated, then said, "It's almost time. You should leave."
Wang Yue'er didn't care about her face and ran up with red eyes, "Can we meet again?"
Xiang Sheng looked at the two cat ears that appeared on her head in surprise and couldn't help but chuckle: "If we are destined to meet, we will meet again."
After saying that, Xiang Sheng turned and walked into the formation. The old village chief raised his sleeve and emitted a ray of light, and the incense sticks on the altar immediately burned rapidly.
At the same time, the dark red light of the formation burst out, instantly submerging Xiang Sheng's figure.
"Sister, I'll wait for you to come back!"
From afar, a vague shout was heard in his ears, and a smile appeared towards Sheng during the transmission.
He came after all.
After a few breaths, the red light in the cave dimmed, the noise gradually subsided, and the incense sticks on the altar had burned out.
Wang Tuo stared at the empty formation, lost in thought.
The time his parents went to war, he was still in the womb and didn't see it. This time he saw it...but his heart felt as if he hadn't seen it at all, and it was tightly gripped.
The old village chief looked at him with a smile, "I remember someone said that they would never set foot here in this lifetime. So, you broke your vow just for a sworn sister?"
Wang Tuo's face turned slightly cold. "I can do whatever I want. What's it to you?"
"Can you still talk back?"
The old village chief was surprised. "It seems that the hard training during this period has not made you lose your spirit. Now that your worries are gone, let's go into the Demon God Valley today."
When Wang Tuo heard this, he immediately laughed, a sneer.
"Are you really hoping your grandson will die soon? Very good!"
Wang Tuo waved his hand and said, "I will enter the Demon God Valley today and never come out in my lifetime!"
After saying that, Wang Tuo glanced at Wang Yue'er beside him, turned around and left without saying a word.
"Brother Taku..."
Wang Yue'er wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by the expressionless old village chief, "Hide your ears."
Wang Yueer quickly covered her head with her hands, pursed her lips, and looked aggrieved.
Brother Tuo is a demon himself, so why does he hate demons so much?
…
The dark stone corridor was extremely quiet and gloomy.
Suddenly, a dark red halo appeared on the ground, and a thin figure walked out of it. The dark red light dimmed randomly and disappeared.
This person is Xiang Sheng.
She looked around warily, only to see that the square, transparent stone walls were mostly damaged, and there was nothing inside.
Seeing the same situation as underground, Xiang Sheng recognized at a glance that this was the Soul Demon Maze, except that the Soul Demons in the walls were nowhere to be seen.
