Chapter 663: Assault on Taoist Priest Xiao!
After leaving the strange manor, the three carefully searched in the secret territory and finally found the presence of Taoist Xiao at the bottom of a lake.
It was only by using the special ability of the Prison-Suppressing Sword that he was able to find it. Otherwise, even the most powerful celestial demon would not be able to sense the location of Taoist Xiao.
"This old guy is really good at hiding. No wonder he can live for eternity..."
Tian Yao gritted his teeth slightly. He had been busy for a long time, but hadn't seen anything worth stealing. He felt a little unhappy.
A veteran like Xiao Dao Ren, if he really wants to act, can be called a top behind-the-scenes mastermind, and the threat he poses is no less than that of an enemy at the Dao Zun realm.
The mere act of raising a ghost is enough to cause a catastrophic disaster.
The three of them checked again, put on various concealment techniques, and then entered the lake and went deep into the cave at the bottom of the lake.
It was quite thrilling at first. The water looked clear, but it was actually filled with swollen, transparent water corpses. There were so many of them, and they were filled with resentful power and had creepy methods. They were almost enough to drag a god-level being under the water and drown them.
The lake water is also extraordinary. It has a certain strange power that can corrode people's hearts. It is enough to stir up fear in people's hearts and make the invaders lose their mind.
Once there is a flaw in the state of mind, the transparent water corpse will become more violent, like a blood-eating monster that smells blood, swimming over in dense groups without any gaps visible.
Li Yuan, who was at the level of a half-step great power, was actually knocked off balance by this transparent water corpse, and his spell was nearly broken.
He immediately summoned the Fuxuan Sword from his body, and with his understanding of space, he performed the method of folding space to conceal the figures of the three people.
Those transparent water corpses swam past where the three people were standing, but passed directly through them, lost their target, and slowly sank down, staying in the water, motionless.
"Damn, this old thing..."
Tian Yao was also touched by the transparent water corpse in the water, leaving a black handprint on his sleeve. He felt that the methods of this strange creature were different from the ordinary system and it was hard to guard against.
Taoist Xiao’s cave was already secretive enough, but he still had various defensive measures in place, making it extremely dangerous.
If the three of them had not brought the Prison-Suppressing Sword and the Fuxuan Sword, they would have never been able to find Taoist Xiao's location, and they would not have been able to avoid these strange defenses without being discovered!
They quickly crossed the lake and looked at the increasingly deep water, but the faceless monster suddenly stopped them.
"There is a familiar smell here..."
Although this ancient strong man broke through life and death and returned from the Wangchuan River, he still remembered some past events and smelled the scent of an old friend at this moment.
The water at the bottom of the lake rippled and a black gas spread in the water.
The ripples grew larger and larger, as if something was wandering over.
A pair of scarlet eyes appeared in the deep lake, staring at the place where the three people were, and stood there for a long time.
The three of them hid in the space folded by the Fuxuan Sword and looked at each other.
For a moment, the faceless monster and the celestial demon both took a breath of cold air.
"A member of the Yue clan?!"
"Yue Xuncang?!"
The two of them exclaimed at the same time. Fortunately, there was a folding space to hide, so they were not worried about being discovered.
After calling out the name, the two looked at each other again: "You know him too?"
Li Yuan looked at the reactions of the two people and listened to the words "people from the Yuezhi". For some reason, he suddenly felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but ask.
"Who is this person? What was his identity when he was alive?"
In the deep lake, a humanoid monster floated in the water. Its skin was extremely pale. Although one could still vaguely see its appearance when it was alive, its body was covered with dark white scales. Some fin-like parts on its body were refined and stitched together, and two sinister claws grew under its ribs. It looked neither human nor ghost, and was quite creepy.
The faceless monster and the demon looked at each other. The demon didn't say anything, so he explained:
"This man is the son of Yue Qi, a general under the Emperor. When he was alive... he could be considered my nephew..."
"I didn't expect that after he died in the ancient battle, his body was secretly taken away by this Taoist priest, and the corpse was refined into such a monster..."
The faceless monster's voice was very dull. He clenched the Prison Sword tightly, his emotions fluctuating a little, and murderous intent was brewing under his face without facial features.
Originally, he just came to help Li Yuan, but now he also has murderous intentions.
The Prison-Suppressing Sword glowed with a dark purple glow, and the sword edge flashed a cold light, as if the abyss of hell was calling it, emitting a breathtaking light.
Tian Yao was also silent. To him, the name Yue Xuncang was also an old friend worth remembering.
This upright friend wanted to help her end her fate, but ended up being entangled in cause and effect, and ultimately ended up not having peace after death.
Li Yuan took a deep breath and felt a little depressed.
"Son of the Moon Awakens...?"
The child who was a bit introverted in his memory, after his offspring died gloriously in battle, his body was refined into such a hideous monster...
Li Yuan didn't know what emotion he was feeling, but with all the recent events, constant separation and pain, he couldn't deny that there was a ball of anger burning in his heart.
The monster that was refined by the Son of Yueqi looked at the place where the three people were standing. He felt something, but could not see through the means of Fuxuan Sword. He stayed in the deep water, motionless.
The three of them calmed down and carefully bypassed the monster without making any noise, and went straight to the secret cave at the bottom of the lake.
They cannot alert the enemy, they must first deal with Taoist Xiao, and then destroy the body of Yueqi's son to give him peace.
Taoist Xiao's cave was hidden in a dark hole at the bottom of the lake. If it weren't for the hint from the Prison-Suppressing Sword, even if the three of them saw the entrance to the cave underwater, they would not have suspected that this was where Taoist Xiao lived.
It was not until the three people disappeared into the cave at the bottom of the lake that the monster created from the corpse of Yue Qi's son turned away and continued to wander in the lake in a daze.
The cave at the bottom of the lake was very deep. After traveling in the black cave for a quarter of an hour, the three finally landed.
This is a huge underwater space. The lake water is blocked outside by magic and cannot invade the cave.
Taoist Xiao was sitting cross-legged on a stone platform deep in the cave, refining some evil object that smelled of blood. When he sensed an outsider entering the cave, he immediately opened his eyes.
"Who disturbs my practice?"
Taoist Xiao immediately put away the bloody semi-finished product in his hand, and narrowed his narrow eyes, looking like a cold and poisonous snake.
This secret realm contains strange and evil secrets that outsiders are not allowed to know. No matter who enters this place, in order to prevent the fact that he raises ghosts from being exposed, Taoist Xiao has already made up his mind to destroy them!
Coincidentally, the three of them seemed to be feeling a little angry along the way.
As soon as he entered the cave and sensed Taoist Xiao, he suddenly attacked, even faster than Taoist Xiao!
"Disturbing your practice? You are a perverted demon, prepare to die!"
The faceless monster rushed out first, grasping the Prison Sword. The corpses of his nephews and nephews were turned into monsters, and he was filled with rage!
Although his cultivation was not as strong as that of the top masters, he had the Prison-Suppressing Sword with him and his companions behind him were also top masters, so he was not afraid at all!
"Fuck you, if I rob your family, it's enough to rob three other families!"
Tian Yao never showed his emotions, and he only seemed to care about the robbery.
Li Yuan also took a deep breath, put away the Fuxuan Sword, held the ferocious Fushang Sword in his hand, and rushed up behind the two of them.
Those who raise evil spirits must die!
