Chapter 529: Baohua's Men
When Ye Changsheng came out of the shaking and collapsed mountain, he happened to see several streams of light in the distance flying towards this side at a high speed. The aura revealed by these lights were all very powerful, and they were all existences in the middle and late stages of the Refining Void Realm.
"Demon beast? Demon beasts of this level should not be raised freely in the Demon Gold Mountains, right? Could it be that Baohua's subordinates have noticed the movement here?" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
He had no intention of coming into contact with the precious flower for the time being, so he took a step and was about to fly away from here.
At this moment, suddenly the figures in the distance also saw him and shouted: "People from the spirit world? Stop!"
These magical beasts had just sensed the breath of the demon ape killed by Ye Changsheng from here. Now that they saw a cultivator from the spiritual world appear here, they naturally could not let this person go easily.
For a moment, they even imagined many things in their minds.
Why did this monk from the spiritual world suddenly appear here?
He is a being at the peak of the Void Refinement Realm, yet he was able to escape alive from the hands of that demon ape. Is there some unknown secret between him and that demon ape?
Could it be that the demon ape contacted the monks outside the Demon Gold Mountains, hoping to use their power to escape?
This is not an impossible thing. Offering a remnant of Xuantian treasure is enough to gain the protection of a Mahayana.
Ten thousand years ago, the Tianyun people made an agreement with Baohua that they would not send beings of the Saint level or above into the Demon Gold Mountains, so it was not impossible for a cultivator at the peak of the Void Refinement Realm to appear and contact this demon ape.
It is very likely that some great master of the Tianyun clan outside made some kind of deal with this demon ape, so now that these demon beasts see Ye Changsheng appear here, they naturally will not let him go easily.
It's no wonder that they would doubt this. They knew how powerful the demon ape was. Even they themselves, with so many people joining forces, felt that they were no match for the demon ape. And the spiritual cultivator in front of them was suppressed in the Demon Gold Mountains, but he was still able to come out alive. There must be something fishy here.
The noise of the mountain collapsing just now might indicate some conspiracy, and for a moment they became alert.
They could never have imagined that Ye Changsheng actually killed the demon ape. After all, this was a fantasy. Although the demon ape was seriously injured, it was not a saint, so it was basically impossible to kill it.
It was precisely because of this that they easily connected the matter to the fact that this person was a messenger sent by the Mahayana from the outside world.
Now, of course, we have to stop this man. If he really has this intention, then we have destroyed his plan and have done a great deed. Who knows how the Holy Ancestor will reward us after she comes out of seclusion in the future!
Several magical beasts in the middle and late stages of the Void Refinement Realm rushed over aggressively. They were confident enough to stop Ye Changsheng.
"Who are you? How dare you trespass here without permission? What is your relationship with that demon ape? Come with us to meet the masters!" One of the demon beasts shouted loudly.
Although Ye Changsheng is at the peak of the Void Refinement Realm, they are not without Void Refinement Realm cultivators. One Void Refinement Realm cultivator and several mid- to late-stage Void Refinement Realms cultivators, with such strength, they can already compete with cultivators at the early stage of the Fusion Realm. What can't be taken down by just one Void Refinement Realm cultivator?
But... after hearing the roars of these monsters, a hint of coldness flashed in Ye Changsheng's eyes. He hadn't even made a move on these people yet, but the other party actually came to him without knowing the consequences.
This time he didn't need to be polite, his face turned cold, Ye Changsheng stretched out a palm and pressed it forward. Suddenly, a huge five-colored palm appeared out of thin air above the monsters, with five-colored thunder flashing, amazing momentum, and a breath of destruction, falling quickly.
"What?"
"How is that possible?"
…
Several exclamations were heard, followed by lights of various colors rising into the sky and rushing towards the huge five-colored palm, trying to block it.
But immediately, under the cover of this five-colored palm, the counterattack of those people bloomed like fireworks and then disappeared, unable to shake this attack that seemed like the hand of God. In the blink of an eye, several screams rang out, and when the five-colored palm disappeared, several corpses were left in its place.
Ye Changsheng stepped forward, collected the corpses of the monsters, took out their magic cores, processed them a little, and then quickly disappeared in front of the collapsed mountain.
At this time, on the other side of the Magic Gold Mountains, there is a very unique courtyard with exotic flowers blooming and gurgling water in the courtyard, creating a quiet and peaceful scene.
But soon, this tranquility was broken by the sudden visitor. The hyena-like monsters rushed here in a hurry and told the breath they had felt before to an elegant old man in a silver robe who was sitting leisurely on a recliner in the courtyard.
"What? You said you felt the breath of the demon ape?" The old man in the silver robe, who had been lying quietly on the recliner with a leisurely look on his face, could no longer maintain his composure when he heard these words.
He suddenly sat up from the recliner, his face full of surprise, and there was a hint of excitement in his eyes.
"That's right, sir. When we surrounded and suppressed the demon ape, I also took part in the attack. So I am very familiar and I dare not forget it at all!"
"We just passed by that place today, and I smelled the scent of the demon ape there, so I immediately came to report the news to you, sir!" said the hyena-like demon beast with great respect.
Upon hearing this, the old man in silver robe was filled with surprise. He quickly told the hyena-like monster:
"I will go over now to see how the demon ape is doing. After a quarter of an hour, go and report to the others. Do you understand?"
Having said that, the old man in silver robe looked stern, with a hint of threat in his eyes.
When the hyena monster heard this, he knew that this adult wanted to take all the credit for defeating the demon ape.
Well, that demon ape is a hot commodity right now. After all, everyone knows that it is seriously injured, and the injury cannot be healed in a short period of time. I'm afraid that any being at the initial stage of fusion has the ability to kill it.
Therefore, it would be best if he could get the credit alone. Once he has accomplished this task, in two years, the Holy Ancestor might be so pleased that he would bestow a piece of the fragment of the Xuantian Ruyi Blade upon him.
The old man in silver robe flew out immediately with this thought in mind, and the hyena monster knew his thoughts very well. This person did not dare to offend the old man in silver robe, so he waited quietly in the yard.
At the same time, he was thinking in his heart: "If Lord Duoyan can capture the demon ape and retrieve the fragments of Xuantian, he can not only redeem himself but also gain the appreciation of Lord Shengzu.
When he gets the benefit, he must not forget me. Just give me something, and it should be able to improve my strength..."
However, the old man in silver robe had just flown not far when his body suddenly stopped, as if he had discovered something incredible, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
He reached out and pulled out a few wooden signs from his bosom. The signs were pitch black with a hint of blood red, with black air swirling around them, and some strange patterns were outlined with blood-colored lines.
It was obvious that this wooden plaque was no ordinary item and it was easy to associate it with some evil magical weapon, but the plaque was obviously broken at the moment.
The face of the old man in silver robe suddenly turned cold, and he murmured, "They were all killed. Did they alert the enemy? Were they discovered by the demon ape, so they were all killed?"
"Killing so many people at the same time, even I can't do it. That demon ape must have used the fragments of Xuantian. Haha, you've been injured so badly, but you still dare to use the fragments of Xuantian. I want to see how much strength you have left."
The old man in silver robe thought so, and a cruel smile appeared on his face.
"This beast must have changed direction. His original hiding place has been discovered. Now he should be running directly towards the outside of the mountain..." A thoughtful look flashed in the old man's eyes.
Then, he changed direction and did not head towards the mountain he knew from the hyena monster, but flew directly to the outskirts of the Magic Gold Mountains at a high speed.
As he flew out, he also took out a pitch-black bird-like magical beast. After he quickly gave the magical beast a few instructions, the magical beast suddenly dispersed and turned into black smoke, dissipating to various places in the Magic Gold Mountains.
…
Ye Changsheng did not take the killing of those monsters to heart. Although those were Baohua's subordinates, Baohua had not awakened yet and it was impossible for her to wake up because of such a small matter, so he did not take killing these people seriously.
As long as Baohua doesn't take action, there will be nothing in this Demon Gold Mountain Range that can threaten him. He can come and go as he pleases.
Ye Changsheng sped all the way and soon arrived at the exit of the Demon Gold Mountains. After arriving here, he suddenly stopped and looked forward with his eyes slightly narrowed.
The so-called exit is actually nothing but an empty void, no more than a few miles long!
If you want to leave the Demon Gold Mountains, you can only pass through this area and be led out by the power of the formation outside.
However, in the seemingly empty space, Ye Changsheng could see a black shadow hiding in front of him, as if waiting for something.
"The fusion-level existences seem to be the magical beasts at the core of the mountain. They are Baohua's subordinates!" After taking a look, Ye Changsheng made a judgment in his heart.
"Come out, how long do you want to hide?" Ye Changsheng looked towards the place where the black shadow was hiding with his eyes as fast as lightning, and there was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
A moment later, the figure of an elegant old man in a silver robe appeared in the void. He looked at Ye Changsheng with a frown, as if he was extremely puzzled.
He really couldn't understand why a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage could see through his disguise, and why this person didn't seem surprised at all to see him in his combined form.
What surprised him even more was that he could clearly feel some of the demon ape's aura from this person. It was obvious that this cultivator from the spiritual world had had contact with the demon ape.
Who is this?
Ye Changsheng's identity and strength made the old man in silver robe a little unsure. He looked at Ye Changsheng carefully with a scrutinizing look in his eyes, and thoughts arose in his mind.
"Fellow Daoist, are you here to see me off?" Ye Changsheng asked calmly with his hands behind his back.
Seeing his fearless look, the old man in silver robe was even more surprised. A Void Refining cultivator who dared to act like this in front of him must have something to rely on.
"Who are you, fellow Daoist? Why did you enter the Demon Gold Mountains?" the silver-robed old man asked in a deep voice.
"What? Do I need to inform you before I enter the Demon Gold Mountains? I'm just a Void Refining cultivator. I remember that there was no such clause in the agreement between you and the Tianyun Clan!" Ye Changsheng said lightly.
When the silver-robed old man heard this, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. Then he took a deep breath and asked coldly:
"What is your relationship with that demon ape? The identity of that demon ape is very important. His affairs are the internal affairs of our Demon Gold Mountain Range. I hope you will not interfere!"
"Are you talking about a demon ape with the blood of a mountain giant ape? This beast has already died in my hands. It's too late for you to say that now!" Ye Changsheng said casually.
Upon hearing this, a hint of sarcasm flashed in the eyes of the old man in silver robe. He was about to laugh at Ye Changsheng, thinking that he was bragging. A Void Refining cultivator wanted to kill the demon ape?
But just as he was about to speak, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he looked in disbelief at the broken blade that suddenly appeared in Ye Changsheng's hand, which was flashing with a faint five-colored light.
Although the color of this broken blade has changed, how could he not recognize its identity?
It was the piece of Xuantian Ruyi Blade that the demon ape had stolen from them, and now it was in the hands of the man in front of him!
Did he really kill that demon ape?
An incredible feeling suddenly rose in the heart of the old man in silver robe. His eyes were suddenly full of disbelief, and the aura on his body rose to a very terrifying level in an instant.
"What? Fellow Daoist, do you want to fight with me?" Ye Changsheng looked at the old man with a smile, and the broken blade in his hand suddenly lit up with a ball of five-colored light, and immediately a very dangerous aura emanated from it.
When the old man in silver robe sensed this breath, his back suddenly tightened, his scalp went numb, and a feeling of fear rose from the bottom of his heart.
He vaguely felt that if he took action, he might not be a match for the man in front of him.
This is very strange. A cultivator in the fusion stage actually feels that he is no match for a cultivator in the refining stage. But now the old man in the silver robe indeed has this feeling in his heart.
He couldn't help but be shocked. As one of the several combined monks under Baohua, he, the Multi-Eyed Demon, was able to survive the great war that year. Naturally, he was extraordinary.
What he was most proud of was his premonition of danger. It was thanks to this ability that he was able to avoid death time and time again.
