Chapter 41: Bipolar Demon Realm (1) “Catch me, Gu Congxing!”…
"From the stars!!"
Lan Jue's cry of pain was heard not far away. Gu Congxing's expression changed. He immediately slashed a sword intent at the scroll unfolding in the air, and flew out of the fighting arena!
Are you kidding? The evil energy on the scroll is about to overflow. There will be no good outcome if you are sucked in!
"Gu Congxing!"
On the viewing platform closest to the fighting arena, Si Junjian ran to the railing and extended his hand to Gu Congxing.
Behind Si Junjian, Jiang Li and Yuan Che also stared at the unfolded black scroll in shock, exclaiming repeatedly, "Bloody Sky Burning Formation!"
"It's the demonic space transfer formation! Damn, it summoned something!"
In the air above the fighting arena, the space containing the scroll began to twist and deform, eventually collapsing into a black sphere. However, in the blink of an eye, the black sphere continued to expand, occupying the center of the fighting arena!
It was filled with an infinite aura of blood and evil, and it chased after Gu Congxing and Xiao Wangyou like a demon with its bloody mouth wide open!
"Catch me, Gu Congxing!"
Si Junjian leaned down and opened his arms towards Gu Congxing who was running to the viewing platform!
Gu Congxing didn't hesitate at all, and immediately jumped out, holding hands tightly with Si Junjian!
However, at this moment, Cui Jinbao's body was torn apart again, blood gushed out, and the black ball expanded again, turning into a giant black hole, which appeared behind Gu Congxing in the blink of an eye!
"Oops--!"
Xiao Wangyou was touched by the edge of the black hole and was sucked into it in an instant!
The black ball's attack did not stop, but expanded more and more rapidly, completely covering the viewing platform!
“Ahhhh—”
Gu Congxing and Si Junjian were swallowed by it, and even Yuan Che and Jiang Li who were fleeing forward were dragged in!
From Lan Jue's exclamation of alarm to Gu Congxing and the others being swallowed up, everything happened in just a few breaths! Before the monks in the high seats outside could react, they saw those geniuses being swallowed by the black hole!
"Follow the star!" Lan Jue had also arrived near the viewing platform where they were. He gritted his teeth, glanced at the black hole magic realm, and immediately jumped in without hesitation!
"Quick! Open the sealing barrier of the martial arts arena!" The elder standing on the side of the martial arts arena immediately shouted the order. Yao Qi reacted immediately and inserted the silver spear into the formation at the edge of the arena. A silver light suddenly appeared in the martial arts arena!
For a moment, the huge fighting arena was surrounded by the silver light formation, and a barrier was set up in front of the black ball, as if dividing the fighting arena into two halves, completely trapping it at the other end of the fighting arena.
“Senior Brother!”
Zhong Ming also reacted. He jumped off the observation deck and wanted to follow Lan Jue, but was blocked by the barrier.
Seeing that he was trying to force his way in, the elder of Ganyang Sect immediately reached out to stop him.
"No! The isolation barrier has been opened. If you force your way through, the barrier will be broken and you won't be able to stop the demonic realm!"
"Then what about my senior brother?!"
Zhong Ming shook off the elder's hand, and his usually handsome face was filled with an extremely fierce and sinister look, and his eyes were red and bloodshot.
At this moment, at the edge of the fighting arena, Cui Jinbao, who was lying in a pool of blood, began to move again, but his body was obviously lifeless, and he was being manipulated to move like a broken puppet.
“Jinbao——!”
The elder looked at his disciple in this state and couldn't help but let out a cry of pain.
Cui Jinbao seemed to have heard the call. He turned his head stiffly towards here and then opened his mouth little by little.
From his mouth, wisps of red demonic energy and black devilish energy emerged. The two wisps of aura merged into the pool of blood on the ground, and gradually formed two figures.
Everyone looked carefully and saw that it was the Blood Demon Chongyuan and the Demon Lord Guixu!
“Chong Yuan!!”
As soon as Zhong Mingfu saw the crimson figure, he immediately let out a loud roar with gritted teeth.
"Humph, this operation was really difficult, but fortunately it was finally successful."
Chong Yuan floated in the air, his long red hair fluttering, and said to the Demon Lord beside him, "Hey, Guixu, quickly use the space transfer method to teleport us out."
The Demon Lord, with long white hair and transparent fins behind his ears, had an expressionless face as he looked at the monks holding swords in front of him and fell silent.
Demonic energy surged from his body, but the demon and the devil did not move a single step.
"...I can't leave. This sealing formation will block the spatial transfer to the outside world."
"Tsk. Trash." The blood demon smacked his lips in disgust.
At this moment, monks from various sects were already standing opposite them with swords in hand. Gu Mingting, dressed in purple, stood at the front with cold eyes.
"I see. I've been speculating on how the demons could circumvent the Blood Pond Cave barrier and escape the Demon Realm, but I forgot you could even collude with the demons."
"The power of the blood demon... could it be that he used the blood in the blood pool to form a clone, and then let the demon king attach his own spiritual consciousness and magic power to it?"
Although Gu Mingting asked a question, his expression was firm. He turned his gaze to Chong Yuan and said, "So, the you in front of us is also a clone."
Chong Yuan folded his hands in front of his chest and sneered without any fear.
"So what if I guessed it right? Anyway, our goal has been achieved. Those little monks have been imprisoned in the Bipolar Demon Realm!"
At this time, the twin elders of the Tianlin Sect raised the long blades in their hands and took fighting stances on the left and right.
"Blood demon... you're willing to sacrifice your own lifespan to escape using your clone."
Zhong Ming immediately said after hearing what he said, "The Blood Demon's use of clones will reduce his lifespan?! My senior brother has fought against his clones before, and that clone was severely injured by my senior brother!"
When Chong Yuan heard this, the arrogant and unruly look on his face froze.
Tianlin Sect's Left Elder said, "With his current Out-of-Body Stage cultivation, he can only condense three clones at most. In that case, let me kill his second clone with my sword!"
"You all are so arrogant. It seems like you are sure that we will lose." The Demon Lord Guixu spoke abruptly with a calm expression.
The Jiang elder said sternly, "Of course! You're already trapped! Release my disciple!"
The Demon Lord, floating in the air, raised his arms high, his magic power surging throughout his body, and his out-of-body pressure swept forward—
"Although I can't leave, I have many companions in the Bipolar Demon Realm."
All the monks looked stern when they heard this.
As he finished speaking, the black hole that had sucked in several newcomers from the immortal sect began to expand and twist again, and what emerged from it were the scaly claws of a high-level magical beast!
In just a moment, more than a dozen magical beasts were summoned!
For a moment, the arena was filled with demonic energy, and the huge, twisted demon beasts struggled and roared, blocking out the sunlight.
"This is the power of the Demon Lord..." A disciple's voice trembled slightly.
But at this moment, Gu Mingting sneered and took another step forward, his purple robe fluttering in the wind like a flag.
"That's how it should be, otherwise this duel will be really boring."
The folding fan in his hand disappeared, and he raised his arm to summon his natal sword "Soul Break" -
It was totally inconsistent with his temperament. The long sword was dark black and engraved with blood lines, which looked extremely ferocious.
"Zheng!"
Gu Mingting pointed his sword at the Demon Lord and shouted deafeningly:
"Gu Clan disciples, listen to my orders! Clear out the demonic beasts and slay the Demon Lord! Follow me and kill—!"
***
When Gu Congxing woke up again, the first thing he felt was a burning heat.
Why is it so hot?
Although cultivators have sharp five senses, they are also protected by spiritual power and are not disturbed by external phenomena like ordinary people.
He slowly opened his eyes and found himself in a huge magma cave. All he could see was a sea of blazing fire and charred lava, without a trace of life.
Compared with the original Shenshan in Donglaizhou, it is like falling straight from fairyland to hell.
It seems that the black hole has sucked itself into a "good place".
Gu Congxing tried to circulate his spiritual power, only to find that the spiritual power here was scarce, while the demonic aura was extremely strong.
Could it be that this place is the ancient demonic realm?
Gu Congxing thought about it and checked his storage ring. He breathed a sigh of relief when he found nothing unusual.
——It’s not the worst situation, there is still hope of escape.
At this moment, a very subtle sound came from the cave behind him, rustling towards him.
Gu Congxing frowned, and he quietly drew out the Whale-Slaying Sword. When the voice approached him, he immediately turned around and swung the sword!
“Zheng——!”
There was a violent buzzing sound in the air. Gu Congxing looked in surprise and saw that the person coming was Si Junjian standing with a sword!
The young man in red was holding the Sword of Evil Slaying, and his sharp eyes lit up the moment he saw Gu Congxing.
"Gu Congxing!"
He let out a light cry, immediately sheathed his sword, and approached Gu Congxing.
However, Gu Congxing remained silent, looked at him cautiously, and took a step back.
"This place is so strange and unusual that it's hard to tell what's real and what's fake. If you're really Si Junjian, can you summon Tiao Tiao?"
Si Junjian had never expected him to say that, but after only a moment's thought, he snorted coldly and said, "What a hassle."
Even as he said this, he continued to deploy the Beast Taming Formation without stopping, calling out in a low voice, "Tiao Tiao."
“Ouch—”
The silver wolf-like monster roared and leaped out of the air, landing steadily on the ground.
As soon as it saw Gu Congxing opposite, it howled a few more times, ran towards him impatiently, wrapped its tail around his arm, and rubbed against him.
"How about it, now you can trust my identity?"
"That's right." Gu Congxing stared at Tiaotiao, his expression softening. He patted its head and said, "Tiaotiao wouldn't mistake me for someone else. In that case, you can trust my identity."
Si Junjian raised his eyebrows and responded in a cold tone.
“Ouch—”
The silver wolf monster looked around and let out a series of calls towards Si Junjian.
Si Junjian listened attentively, his brows gradually furrowed.
"According to Tiao Tiao, this place is probably an ancient secret realm. Because there are a large number of magical beasts living here, the demonic aura is strong and the spiritual power is thin."
He glanced at Tiaotiao, who was leaning against Gu Congxing, and continued, "Also, it can sense that although there is an exit here, it is shrinking. If we want to get out of here, we need to act quickly."
Although Gu Congxing could understand fragments of Tiaotiao's words, his understanding was far less comprehensive than Si Junjian's. He nodded slightly, and saw Si Junjian had already made a gesture to recall Tiaotiao.
Tiaotiao: “Awoo——”
The silver wolf monster raised its head and called out, then its body returned to the size of a hill.
It stood face to face with Gu Congxing, rubbed its furry head against Gu Congxing's neck, and received a hug from the young man in front of it. Then it returned to Si Junjian contentedly.
“Ouch!”
Tiaotiao's tail shook, and the next moment it disappeared from the two people's sight.
"Tiaotiao's manifestation requires my spiritual power to maintain, and the spiritual power here is very thin..."
Si Junjian glanced at Gu Congxing's expression and saw his slightly disappointed look. He paused for a moment before continuing, "If necessary, I will summon it again."
"Yeah." Gu Congxing naturally knew that he should prioritize conserving his spiritual power at this time. He looked around and his eyes fell on the road on the east side.
"Although this cave is enormous, it has many hidden holes, and underneath is a sea of magma and fire. Why don't we go to the east first? At least that side looks flatter and more open, and there are more rocks."
"Let's go."
The two of them set out together towards the east side of the cave. Only the sound of footsteps could be heard in the huge space.
Gu Congxing and Si Junjian were walking side by side. At this moment, there was only the young man in red by his side, and he couldn't help but think of their previously canceled engagement.
He couldn't help but think of the bad karma they had in their previous lives.
In this way, the Zhuxie Sword in Si Junjian's hand is extremely powerful, but during the Immortal Sect Competition, it was always sealed in the sheath, and he only fought with the Lotus Bone Bow.
The reason for this is that Si Junjian follows his master's orders and will only unsheathe his sword when slaying demons and monsters. Therefore, even for the sake of victory, he will not use it against monks.
——Holding the magic sword to eliminate evil sins, and using the Brahma fire to kill demons and evil spirits.
Gu Congxing thought of the comments made by the people of Luoxizhou on Si Junjian, and couldn't help but look around him a few more times.
Si Junjian still had a cold expression, but for some reason his ears were tinged with red.
Neither of them was talkative, so they walked in silence all the way until they turned into an open area without lava. Gu Congxing spoke first.
"Speaking of which, I have to thank you for helping me back then."
Si Junjian paused, then quickened his pace: "Don't think too much. I just did it because you saved Tiao Tiao before."
Gu Congxing raised his eyebrows: "Tiaotiao has already told you?"
"kindness."
Seeing that he still had a proud and stern look on his face, Gu Congxing suddenly felt a prank in his heart and grinned, "Do you know that I spent a million spirit stones to redeem Tiao Tiao?"
"What?!"
Si Junjian let out a cry of surprise, Mudan's face was full of astonishment, and Gu Congxing was about to laugh out loud, but he saw a strange light flashing on the black rock behind him!
"careful!"
The Whale-Slaying Sword suddenly attacked and was inserted into the crevice in the instant!
"hiss--"
The hissing sound made people feel cold all of a sudden.
The two of them looked intently and saw a giant black python as long as several people had emerged from the crevice!
What's worse is that as its cry rang out, the same sound echoed in other dark caves around the two of them.
The threads are connected and will never be broken.
Gu Congxing's heart sank.
