"Where are the souls? Where did the souls of these six cultivators go?!"
The black liquid head that had been laughing before was no longer in the mood to laugh and screamed.
It even turned back and asked its companions: "Did you swallow it?"
The largest black liquid head said in a deep voice: "If we swallowed it, would you not feel it? Someone stole the souls of these six cultivators right under our noses!"
"Boss, who is it? Who did it? We were totally unaware of it when it happened. This is an expert!"
"How would I know who did it, but I guess it's most likely related to the group of cultivators who came down the mountain!"
"What are you waiting for? Order the attack immediately and don't let them escape overnight!"
"Yes, we can't let them get away!"
"Bring them here, I want to eat them. It's been a long time since I tasted human flesh!"
In the clepsydra, the heads formed by the black liquid began to make noise.
A wave of darkness once again spread up along the blood-red moonlight, blocking the blood moon.
Then there were a series of strange noises coming from the palace on Jade Mountain.
The demons and ghosts lurking in the darkness let out carnival-like roars after hearing the noises and seeing the blood moon obscured by the black liquid.
They poured out from their hiding places and, following the instructions, headed towards the temple where Sumu and the others were.
During this process, many demons, ghosts and ferocious beasts secretly passed on the message in exchange for some elixirs while marching.
A wolf demon roared twice in a low voice as it passed by a shelter of demons, ghosts and ferocious beasts.
Immediately, a Painted Skin Demon appeared silently in the darkness and said enthusiastically but quietly: "What's the matter, do you have information to sell? We are currently holding an event with many rewards."
The wolf demon looked around to make sure there were no other demons or beasts, then whispered, "Our demon master suddenly received an order from an unknown existence, asking it to take us to the Forbidden Jade Mountain."
"You guys are going to Yushan?"
The Painted Skin Demon was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that Su Mu and the others were at Yushan, and he couldn't help feeling a little worried.
The wolf demon didn't know what it was thinking, so it just asked, "Can this information be exchanged for elixirs?"
"Of course!"
The Painted Skin Demon took out a pill and gave it to it.
Then he said, "I will quietly follow your team. You try to find out more information, such as what to do in Yushan, who else will go there besides you, etc. As long as there is new information, there will be elixirs. The more information you have, the more elixirs you will get. If you have more than ten pieces of information, you will get an extra elixir. How about it? Isn't it attractive?"
"No problem, as long as I have the elixir, everything will be fine." The wolf demon licked his lips, took the elixir and swallowed it in one gulp, with a satisfied expression on his face: "Delicious!"
The Painted Skin Demon urged, "Go back quickly before you are discovered. If you have any new news, come and tell me."
"Okay!" The wolf demon nodded in agreement. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly saw a figure coming over. He was startled and shouted, "Who!?"
The other party was also stunned. After seeing the wolf demon, he asked: "Sekiro? It's you? Why are you here?"
At this time, Sekiro also saw the other party's appearance clearly. It was a colorful chicken demon, and like it, it was a subordinate of the demon lord.
Even so, Sekiro did not let his guard down and questioned, "Himeta? What are you doing here?"
At the same time, its eyes were wandering, looking for an opportunity to take action, wanting to kill Ji Taimei to prevent him from being exposed for selling out information.
Ji Taimei also looked alert and ready to take action at any time.
At this tense moment, the Painted Skin Demon spoke up: "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, we are all my clients."
When Sekiro and Ji Taimei heard what it said, they were both stunned. Before they could ask, the Painted Skin Demon asked, "Ji Taimei, what information do you have to sell?"
Sekiro opened his mouth wide and exclaimed in a low voice: "Good for you, Ji Taimei! I always thought that only someone like me could betray, but I never expected that a guy like you with thick eyebrows and big eyes would also betray! It's a pity that the demon lord still likes you so much!"
Ji Taimei also reacted: "Don't talk nonsense, how could I betray the Demon Lord? I just sold some information. Besides, you are not valued by the Demon Lord, but you still did such a thing. Between the two of us, the eldest brother should not say anything about the second brother."
Although the two monsters were bickering, the tense atmosphere disappeared in an instant. Instead, a special friendship was born, which made their relationship much closer.
It's a bit like the four irons of life...
This is probably what it means to be a demon.
After a few words, Ji Taimei said: "I just received some news. We are going to follow the Demon Lord to the Forbidden Jade Mountain..."
"I've already told you this news." Sekiro interrupted it, smacked his lips proudly, and boasted, "The pills are delicious."
Ji Taimei cursed in her heart and asked the Painted Skin Demon, "Did it tell you which other demon lords took people with them besides us?"
The Painted Skin Demon's eyes suddenly lit up: "I don't have this, did you know?"
"Of course!" Ji Taimei immediately told the Painted Skin Demon the information she had obtained.
After listening to it, the Painted Skin Demon took out two pills and gave them to it, saying, "Very good, here are the pills. If you have any new information, remember to find me. I will always quietly follow your team."
"Wait, why give it two?" Sekiro demanded.
"Because the information it provides is more detailed and more important than yours," the Painted Skin Demon replied.
Ji Taimei laughed loudly, while Sekiro snorted coldly, thinking in his heart that he must get more important information in exchange for more pills.
As for killing the Painted Skin Demon and stealing the elixir? Such a thing, Sekiro and Ji Taimei had never thought about it.
There were demons and ghosts who had done this before, but they ended up stealing a storage device, and they didn't know the unlocking password, so they couldn't open it at all.
If you break it forcibly, the elixirs and storage instruments inside will be destroyed together.
The most terrifying thing is that the next demon was attacked and killed by his companions because the Painted Skin Demon issued a bounty for its life.
Nowadays, the Painted Skin Demon, especially the Painted Skin Demon with a storage magic weapon on his waist, has greatly risen in status and has become a very popular character in the Yuanjiao Secret Realm.
Sekiro and Ji Taimei left together, and the Painted Skin demons once again displayed their fickle nature, blending in with the surrounding environment and following the demon team silently.
At the foot of Jade Mountain, in the temple.
At the same moment when Luo Cheng, Sun Yu and six others died heroically, Su Mu received the news.
It was Gu who told him: "The six of your classmates who were controlled by the demon god are dead!"
And with the help of the drum, the souls of Luo Cheng, Sun Yu and six others were forcibly summoned over.
Luo Cheng, Sun Yu and six other people thought that not only would they die, but their souls would also be eaten and used by demons and ghosts. Unexpectedly, they escaped miraculously and were led to Su Mu and others.
While they were happy, they also felt ashamed.
"We wanted to warn you, but we were used instead. We wanted to kill and severely injure those demons, but we were unsuccessful. We are really ashamed of you all."
Su Mu lit some incense and candles, consoled them, and asked about the cause of the incident. He then said, "You are not to blame for this. It was all because the demons were too cunning. We admire your bravery very much. When we leave the secret realm, we will tell your school and family about your heroic deeds!"
The souls of Luo Cheng, Sun Yu and the other six bowed and said, "Thank you in advance. But you'd better make plans early. The demons in the Jade Mountain Fairy Palace, seeing that the Gu has failed, want to use force to capture you and break the formation!"
Su Mu asked hurriedly: "Break the formation? Break what formation?"
Luo Cheng said, "Didn't we ask you to go to the west of Yushan Mountain? There is indeed an exit to the secret realm over there, but it is sealed by an immortal formation, and demons, ghosts and beasts cannot get close. Only cultivators can get close to it."
Sun Yu continued, "Before, the demons in the Jade Mountain Fairy Palace used the Shadow Gu to control us and wanted to break the formation. As a result, because our bodies had begun to change into monsters and living dead, we could not get close to the fairy formation, so they set their sights on you."
After listening to Luo Cheng and Sun Yu’s stories, Su Mu and the others finally understood the plans of these demons!
These demons and ghosts wanted to use them to open the exit of Yuanjiao Secret Realm in advance so that they could go to the human world to burn, kill, rob and abuse as they please!
"We understand, thanks for the reminder." Su Mu nodded solemnly.
Without his orders, when the students heard that the demons and ferocious beasts were going to attack them, they began to reinforce their lines and prepare for battle, ready to give the invading enemy a head-on blow.
Su Mu asked Xiao Ye to make overall arrangements and continued to ask, "Do you know the identity of the black liquid demon ghost who commands the demons in the Jade Mountain Fairy Palace?"
"I don't know." Luo Cheng and Sun Yu shook their heads.
"We only know that there are nine of them in total. Their abilities are very mysterious, but they seem to be restricted by some force and cannot leave the Fairy Palace!"
"One of them is very likely the bloody mouth that turned into a fairy palace that we saw on Mount Gongga! Because in the past two days, we have seen the fat monk and the thin Taoist priest entering and leaving the fairy palace."
Su Mu nodded and said seriously, "Thank you for risking your lives to get this information. Before you step onto the jade plate, I have a fireworks display for you to watch!"
"Fireworks?" The souls of Luo Cheng, Sun Yu and the other six people were all stunned.
Why watch fireworks at this time? It's not like we're celebrating 520 or 521.
At the same time, with the assistance of Amiya, the main guns and rockets on the armored vehicles all adjusted their parameters.
With Su Mu's shout of "Fire!", the main guns and rockets of the armored vehicles roared one after another, and countless rune shells blasted towards the top of Yushan Mountain like blooming fireworks!
In the fairy palace, the strange black liquid in the clepsydra sensed that something was flying towards it.
A head popped up, sneering, "These cultivators actually dared to attack us first? They really overestimated their own abilities! At such a long distance, and in the darkness, how could their attacks possibly reach us?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a 'boom' sound from the roof of the palace.
Immediately afterwards, a barrage of shells flashing with rune light fell like a torrential rain!
The 'whoosh' sound that broke through the air seemed to be saying, "Are you surprised? Are you surprised?"
