Rong Lin pondered for a moment, seemingly summoning fragments of memories hidden deep within him, before slowly speaking, "I remember, long ago, reading an ancient tome that detailed a place shrouded in mystery to all living beings—the Myriad Demons Moon Cave. This place is renowned not only for its intricate, maze-like layout, but also for its unfathomable master. His power and origins are shrouded in mystery, leaving no one to grasp. Countless beings have attempted to challenge his authority, only to return empty-handed."
Chu Chu recalled a lot after hearing this, and she agreed, "Indeed, the master of the Wanmo Huanyue Cave is no ordinary being. Legend has it that he was transformed from the remnant soul of a fallen demon god from ancient times. After enduring countless years of baptism, he absorbed the endless demonic energy and illusion essence within the cave, and eventually transformed into a human form, possessing the powerful ability to control people's minds and transform all things. This power would terrify even the most powerful people in the six realms, and they would not dare to set foot in this forbidden land lightly."
Rong Lin nodded and continued, "It is said that the ancient demon god was once a lord of the vast expanse of the four seas and eight wastelands, renowned for his might. However, in a devastating war between gods and demons, he tragically perished, his soul fragments scattered. Amazingly, these soul fragments didn't completely dissipate between heaven and earth. Instead, they were drawn by an unknown force and eventually landed in the Myriad Demons Illusionary Moon Cave. In this strange place, time and space seem to have lost their original meaning. Nourished by the endless demonic energy, the demon god's soul fragments gradually awakened and merged with the illusionary power within the cave, eventually transforming into the current cave master."
"This cave master not only inherited the awe-inspiring power of the Demon God, but also mastered illusion skills beyond that of mortals. He can easily distort reality and create illusions that are difficult to distinguish between true and false. Countless challengers, after entering the Ten Thousand Demons Moon Cave, have become lost in these illusions, and can never find a way out, and can only wander helplessly in it." Rong Lin's words were full of awe for the cave master's strength.
Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan couldn't help but sigh and said with emotion, "We were lucky to escape from the Myriad Demons Illusion Moon Cave this time. If we hadn't discovered the secret of the illusion in time, I'm afraid we would have been lost there forever like the other challengers."
Chu Chu slowly opened her eyes, her gaze deep and determined. "We can't give up just like that. We must find the cave master's weakness so we can develop a strategy to defeat him. Only then, when we step into the forbidden land again, will we uncover the true secret of the Ten Thousand Demons Moon Cave, and rescuing Master will be just around the corner."
Rong Lin nodded in agreement. "Yes, I'm sure Master is in the cave. We must find a way to bring Master back safely as soon as possible."
Chu Chu nodded and added, "Master's divine power is unfathomable. Even if the cave master wants to defeat him, it will take some time. I plan to return to Jiayang Mountain first. The long vacation in the human world is not over yet, and I can use this time to practice and prepare. We must be fully prepared before we can challenge the Ten Thousand Demons Moon Cave again."
Rong Lin replied softly, "Well, I have also decided to go with you to Jiayang Mountain to discuss countermeasures with your elders."
Ye Xuan immediately stood up, with a determined light in her eyes: "The existence of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave in the Demon Realm itself is a mistake. I must destroy it completely." Her tone was full of hatred and determination towards the Ten Thousand Demons Cave.
Chu Chu nodded slightly in agreement: "Okay, we will definitely come up with a good solution."
Afterwards, Ye Xuan personally sent Chu Chu and Rong Lin away from the Demon Realm.
Before they parted ways, Chuchu suddenly changed her mind: "I want to go to the underworld. The Hades is an old god who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years. He might know something about the Ten Thousand Demons Cave. Moreover, the Hades has a good relationship with my master, so he will definitely not stand idly by."
After hearing this, Rong Lin did not raise any objection, so they changed their route and headed towards the underworld.
At this time, the Hades was busy selecting a new group of ghost officials in the underworld. Ever since Chu Chu used the formation of Jiayang Mountain to wipe out more than 50 of his rebellious ghost officials in one fell swoop, the Hades had been working hard to replenish the strength of the underworld.
Despite this, when he learned that Chuchu and Ronglin were coming to visit, Hades immediately took the time to warmly entertain them.
When Qingtian, Tianyi and other ghost officials heard that Chuchu had arrived, they all came to meet her happily.
The Hades smiled politely and asked, "I wonder what instructions the two gods have for you in the underworld this time?"
Chuchu smiled and shook her head: "Pluto, you are so polite, I am really a little uncomfortable. In fact, we came here to ask for something. If it were nothing, I would not bother you."
Upon hearing this, Hades immediately stopped smiling and said seriously, "Spirit Lord, please feel free to speak. As long as I can, I will do my best to help you."
Chu Chu looked around and made sure no one was eavesdropping, then set up a sound barrier so that neither humans nor ghosts could hear their conversation.
"My master, Patriarch Zixiao, is trapped in the Wanmo Huanyue Cave, and now we urgently need the help of Hades. In addition, I would also like to ask Lord Hades how much he knows about this cave and the cave owner." There was a hint of anxiety and expectation in Chuchu's voice.
Upon hearing this, Hades stroked his beard, frowned, and fell into deep thought. After a moment, he asked in confusion, "The ancestor possesses boundless divine power, so how could he be trapped in a mere Ten Thousand Demons Cave? Hasn't he lived in the Purple Sky Holy Land for years? Why did he suddenly come to the lower realms?"
Rong Lin explained, "We currently have no idea why Master has descended to the mortal realm. However, the Holy Land cannot remain without a master for a single day, so we beg the Pluto to lend a hand and help us rescue Master."
After hearing this, Hades nodded and said, "Yes, I understand. Please follow me, I have something to show you."
As he spoke, Hades brought Chuchu and Ronglin to a secret room. Inside the secret room was an ancient scroll.
