Chapter 1935: Entering the Cave (currently reading on mobile phone, recommended to read tomorrow morning)
"Master, this time we didn't investigate it thoroughly, so you made a wasted trip."
After being stunned for a moment, Qianye immediately bowed his hands and apologized with a look of self-blame on his face.
Now the matter is very clear, that is, Master Zhaogu used the treasure legend to trick them all.
As a result, they were so smart as to invite the Five Immortals and win over a group of Taiyi poison cultivators. They were truly disgraceful!
"A wasted trip? Haha, that may not be the case.
As the saying goes, if you are empty, you will be real, and if you are real, you will be empty. It would have been fine if the old demon Zhaogu took the opportunity to do something else, but he had to deal with the Daluo demon beast that had a grudge against him. If he wanted to enter the Cave of Ten Thousand Poisons, he needed a group of the essence of the Daluo demon beast.
The most suspicious thing was that the old demon's timing of attack was very wrong. If he really had no intention of attacking the Ten Thousand Poison Cave, he should have made his move after the Purple Smoke Condensed Cauldron.
After all, that’s when Hong Luo’s vigilance will be at its lowest!”
The Five Immortals Patriarch played with the wine glass in his hand, his eyes flashing with brilliance.
Luo Hong sat down again and nodded in agreement. He also noticed this suspicious point and felt that if Master Zhaogu did not have any ideas about the Ten Thousand Poison Cave, this point would be inexplicable.
"Then what the ancestor meant was..."
Marquis Zi Yang was already disappointed, but now his eyes lit up when he heard this and asked.
"It's probably a trick within a trick. They first came to Ziyan City with great fanfare, pretending to enter the Ten Thousand Poison Cave to search for anything, thus creating an opportunity to raid the Black Blood Abyss.
Now he wants to take advantage of the thoughts that arise after we see through his plan and make us mistakenly believe that he does not really want to enter the Ten Thousand Poison Cave, so as to prevent me and the other two old guys from coming to disrupt his plan.
Such a chain of calculations, if you and your wife had not invited me here so that I could get more information, I would have fallen into his trap based on just a few words in the report.
This is strange, this kind of strategy is not something that the old demon Zhaogu could come up with. I'm afraid that the other Daluo who appeared in the Black Blood Abyss this time is the mastermind of the whole thing."
Because of the special nature of the Ten Thousand Poison Cave, any non-Poison Dao Daluo cultivator who wants to enter it will attract the attention of the Poison Dao Daluo.
In fact, before being invited by Zi Yang Hou and his wife, the Five Immortals had already thought of ordering them to investigate the details.
Putting himself in other people's shoes, the Five Immortals believed that the other two Daluo monks of the Poison Path would also have similar thoughts.
As long as they can't find any results, the three old guys in the poison path will most likely gather in Ziyan City.
But now the matter of the Black Blood Abyss is undoubtedly a very convincing result. Before they pay full attention to it, it is highly likely that they will be fooled!
"You've put so much effort into this. Isn't that treasure just a fabricated legend?"
After noticing the abnormality, the Five Immortals' Patriarch wavered in his original thoughts and couldn't help but ask himself in his heart.
"If that's the case, then we have to face two Daluo monks at the same time!
Master, would you like to invite the two uncles over?"
Qianye reacted very quickly and immediately suggested with a worried look on his face.
There are a total of three Daluo cultivators among their poison cultivators. Although they have established their inheritances in different places in the Demon Realm, due to their weak overall strength, they are still relatively united internally, and the disciples in the three major inheritance places all call each other brothers.
“Humph, we had to join forces to deal with Hong Luo, and in the end, he escaped. I guess the cultivation level of that Taoist friend I’ve never met is just average.
I am not afraid of fighting two people alone, especially in a place like the Ten Thousand Poison Cave, so I don't need to trouble you two uncles."
Upon hearing this, the Five Immortals Patriarch snorted in disdain, and then said in a domineering tone.
"Grandmaster, guesses are just guesses after all. Can you let me give it a try?"
Zi Yang Hou's eyes suddenly turned, and he felt that his chance to show off had come, so he bowed and suggested.
"Oh? How do you want to try it?"
The Five Immortals Patriarch glanced at Zi Yang Hou and asked with interest.
"It's simple. I will go to the 'Zhao Gu Zhenren' in the city under the guise of congratulations and ask him to return the Twelve Generals to me.
If he declines, then the matter will be almost certain to happen."
Marquis Zi Yang believed that if True Man Zhao Gu really wanted to enter the Cave of Ten Thousand Poisons, he would definitely not return the Twelve Generals to him, so he made this attempt.
"Haha, it's simple indeed, but stupidly simple!"
However, as soon as he opened his mouth, he was angrily scolded by the Five Immortals.
"Do you think he would really bring your bullshit Twelve Generals into the Poison Cave?
Even if he needed help, he would have asked another Daluo to prepare. How could he leave such a big loophole for you to exploit? "
"Master, please calm down. My husband didn't think it through at the moment, but he was right in one thing. Testing is necessary!"
Upon seeing this, Qian Ye quickly tried to smooth things over and signaled Zi Yang Hou with his eyes not to speak.
"Don't worry about the test. I will personally take action and advance the time for the Purple Smoke Condensing Cauldron to three months later!
Humph, do you really think that I have entered the Ten Thousand Poison Cave dozens of times and would not leave any arrangements behind?
That's it, you guys hurry up and get ready!"
The method of the Five Immortals Patriarch is even simpler and more brutal. He actually has the means to directly influence the time of the birth of the Ten Thousand Poison Cave.
However, Ziyan City and Black Blood Abyss are extremely far apart, and although the Ziyan Condensing Cauldron can last for more than a hundred years, the opportunity for Daluo monks to enter is only the first ten years.
Afterwards, the Purple Smoke Cauldron would be unable to teleport Daluo monks because the restrictive power within it would be weakened.
Therefore, after the vision of the Purple Smoke Condensing Cauldron appeared several years in advance, they only needed to secretly pay attention to whether True Man Zhaogu would rush to Purple Smoke City with all his strength.
After saying this, the Five Immortals Patriarch seemed to not want to see Marquis Zi Yang again. He rolled up a puff of green smoke and wrapped himself and Qian Ye, then disappeared from the first seat.
"My fellow Taoists, you have all heard what the ancestor said just now. When you return later, quickly make preparations.
To avoid misunderstandings, fellow Taoists, please do not leave the Marquis' Mansion for the next three months."
As soon as the Five Immortals left, Marquis Zi Yang puffed out his chest and gave instructions to everyone in the hall.
The matter was of great importance, so no one thought there was anything wrong with it. After uttering a word in agreement, they left the hall almost at the same time.
After returning to his residence, Luo Hong just opened the restriction and sat down cross-legged, he couldn't help but sigh that each of these great demons was not an easy task to deal with.
This time, Master Zhaogu completely deceived him.
Although this was because Luo Hong did not personally use his spiritual sense to investigate in order to avoid alerting the enemy, he had never doubted it before.
The feeling of frustration caused by not realizing one's ability is the strongest!
"Is it really necessary to go to the Ten Thousand Poison Cave this time?"
Luo Hong couldn't help but have the idea of retreating at this time. After all, his purpose of entering the Cave of Ten Thousand Poisons was just to find a legacy of the ancient poison way for A Zi.
And it is obvious that this benefit is completely disproportionate to the current risk!
But despite such an obvious situation, Luo Hong hesitated.
The reason lies in the real plan of Master Zhaogu.
“Although I don’t know what his specific plot is, the Daluo monk who cooperated with him is most likely the Sima Prison Master who arranged this assessment mission.
One of them is a demon, the other is an immortal, and they practice completely different laws, but they are attracted to the same thing. This shows that the thing just hits the common point between them!"
Touching his chin as he analyzed to this point, Luo Hong immediately had several guesses in his mind, one of which particularly concerned him.
"Well, as long as it's related to that, no matter what the probability is, it's worth taking a risk."
After hesitating for a moment, Luo Hong finally made up his mind.
Then, he summoned the Golden Sun Against Rain Formation and took Ah Zi with him into it.
During these last three months, Luo Hong's main task was to use the three pots of Five Immortals Wine he had just acquired to improve A Zi's cultivation.
After all, a place like the Cave of Ten Thousand Poisons is exactly where his skills can be used. Every time his cultivation level improves now, he can be of more help in the future.
Time flies, and more than a year has passed. The purple smoke barrier that filled the sky and earth in the Purple Smoke Lake disappeared more than half a year ago.
Instead, there was a giant triangular tripod that seemed to be real, standing between heaven and earth.
As soon as the giant purple smoke cauldron appeared, Marquis Zi Yang led the twelve generals he had retrieved into it, and never came out again.
But Luo Hong and others were kept in the Marquis' Mansion and gathered together, ready to wait for Qian Ye's orders.
It is worth mentioning that Han Li and Shi Chuankong had sent the news to Luo Hong before the preparation period was over in March.
They said that they had already met up with the reinforcements sent by Shi Pokong and decided to continue their journey to the holy capital of the Demon Realm - Yeyang City.
"finally come."
Suddenly, Luo Hong, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed among the crowd, opened his eyes slightly.
Just now, he sensed two fleeting auras of Daluo, and just as he expected, they were one immortal and one demon!
In terms of spiritual awareness, the Five Immortals Patriarch, who is in the middle stage of Daluo, is slightly better than him at the moment, and he is also in a position of rest and waiting for the opportunity, so naturally he will not fail to sense it at the moment.
As expected, a white light flashed and Qian Ye appeared in the hall.
"The time has come, come with me to meet Master!"
Hearing this, the twelve Taiyi monks in the hall quickly opened their eyes, stood up, and stepped into the white light array under Qianye's feet.
At this time, on the other side, two figures appeared at the residence of "Zhaogu Zhenren" at the same time.
I saw that one of them was exactly the same as the fake Zhaogu Zhenren, both of them were tall and thin, with a gaunt face. There was a spot on the forehead without flesh and blood, revealing white bones. He wore a gray Taoist robe and looked like an immortal.
The other person was Sima Yuzhu, whom Luo Hong had seen before, but he had two red horns on his head and looked like a demon cultivator.
"You are finally back."
The fake Zhaogu, who was sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes and looked at the two of them, saying without any intention of getting up.
"What's going on over at Ziyan Juze? Why did the cauldron condense so many years in advance?"
Zhenren Zhaogu immediately frowned and asked.
"No strange phenomena occurred before the cauldron was formed. It is probably just a coincidence that was recorded in the classics."
Fake Zhaogu shook his head, still without much emotion.
It turned out that the situation of premature condensation of the cauldron had occurred several times in the past, and each time the duration of the Purple Smoke Cauldron would be greatly shortened.
It is said that the ban in the Ten Thousand Poison Cave has been running for too long and there are slight flaws, which is why it erupts from time to time.
It was precisely because they could not predict how much the existence time of the Purple Smoke Cauldron would be shortened that he and Sima Lei rushed here at full speed.
Even though they were great monks, they inevitably left some traces along the way.
"Has there been any abnormality in the city during this period?"
They should have been racing against time at this moment, but out of caution, Master Zhaogu still asked.
“Just as you expected, after the news of the Black Blood Abyss reached me, Marquis Zi Yang asked me to return the Twelve Generals, and I returned them to him according to your instructions.
As soon as the giant purple smoke cauldron appeared, they and most of the poison cultivators in the city entered it.
In addition, I have been using poisonous insects to monitor the poison cultivators entering the city. The disciples of the three major poison sects have all been here before, but they all left Ziyan City shortly after the news came."
After saying that, Fake Zhaogu slapped his forehead, took out a ball of gray-white divine thought, threw it to True Zhaogu, and continued:
"The details are all in it, take a look for yourself."
"Well, come back."
Holding the gray-white divine thought in his hand, True Man Zhaogu did not check it immediately. Instead, he nodded to the fake Zhaogu and put it into his sleeve.
Then, he slapped his divine consciousness towards his dantian. His eyes were dull for a moment, then they regained clarity. He looked at Sima Lei and said:
"It seems that Daoyou's plan has worked, and those poisonous old demons will not come to hinder us."
"Haha, of course.
Daoist Zhaogu, we should not delay any longer, let's quickly enter the cauldron!"
Sima Lei chuckled confidently, then urged.
"Okay, the three of you come out to me!"
Upon hearing this, Master Zhaogu nodded, then tapped the white bone between his eyebrows with his knuckles.
The next moment, three beams of light flew out from the white bones and landed on the ground, revealing the figures of the Purple and Green Beauties, the Flower Snake and Zhu Yan.
"Gu will only take the three of them. Fellow Daoist Sima plans to take a few younger generations with him?"
Zhenren Zhaogu asked directly and seemed to have made some arrangements.
"You all come out too."
Sima Lei reached out and touched the jade talisman on his waist, and seven figures flew out from it.
"Greetings to the Lord Prison Master!"
As soon as the prison guard Wang Chenggang stood firm, he saluted towards Sima Lei.
The other six are all Taiyi of Heaven who are participating in the assessment this time. Those who are not here have naturally died in the mission.
Song Yaoguang was among them.
"Master Prison Master, why are we still in the Demon Realm?"
Sensing the thick demonic energy around him, Song Yaoguang immediately frowned and asked.
When Sima Lei suddenly appeared and let them enter the Jade Mansion, he had agreed that they would return to the Fairyland when they came out.
“This prison master has important tasks in the Demon Realm and needs your assistance.
Anyone who has participated, if they have passed the previous assessment, will be considered to have made a great contribution. If they have fallen short, this prison master is willing to recommend you to pass.
What do you think? "
Sima Lei smiled as he looked at Song Yaoguang and the other six people.
Although the conditions were quite generous, the six people couldn't help but feel embarrassed. They really felt like they were being tied to a pirate ship!
