As the Universe Turns - Chapter 632
Chapter 632 Devil Mountain Restraint
“What’s the matter?”
“Let’s go!”
Meng Xian’er couldn’t help but say something. She pulled him out of the room in an instant. At this moment, Xiao Chen finally felt something. This feeling was so familiar … it was the previous restriction!
The moment the restriction of the entire Demon Palace was restored, the two of them rushed out like lightning. When they turned around, they saw dark clouds gathering in the palace, like layers of extremely heavy restrictions.
“So close …”
Meng Xian’er was shocked, but her face was still slightly pale. If the two of them had taken a step later, even if they were in the stone room, they would have been crushed by the layers of restrictions.
Xiao Chen was a little curious. Why was there nothing here before, and how did she perceive that the restriction here was about to be restored?
Meng Xian’er turned around and looked at him. “I told you before, the clue is under the dead bone. When you were playing with the pile of dead bones, you unknowingly triggered the restriction. That’s why the restriction here was restored. Do you understand?”
Xiao Chen vaguely understood what she meant. He turned around and looked at the entire mountain. There were countless Demon Palaces on it, covered with white bones everywhere. They were extremely terrifying.
“You mean this entire mountain is a restriction?”
“That’s right, that’s roughly the case.”
Meng Xian’er looked at the mountain-filled Demon Palace and said, “There are a total of eight formations in this restriction formation. Each formation is equivalent to a small formation. There are eight Demon Palaces to maintain it. Thus, there are a total of 64 such Demon Palaces. The Demon Palace we were in just now is the formation eye of the Kun-shaped Small Formation.”
“Just the restriction of a Demon Palace is already that terrifying. If you accidentally touch the restriction of the entire mountain, the immortals will instantly be wiped out, right?”
Xiao Chen also looked at the Demon Mountain. As he spoke, he shook his head. Fortunately, he hadn’t rushed into such a terrifying place before. The restrictions on this Demon Mountain were so heavy. Heaven knew what was suppressing it.
Meng Xian’er frowned and said, “If what I expected is correct, this mountain is the key, but if you want to enter the bottom of the mountain, you must first find a way to open the restriction on the mountain. Otherwise, not to mention the Ruined Heaven Realm, even a few more Harmonious Stage and True Cave Stage experts might not dare to forcefully break through the restriction …”
“You don’t want to enter the bottom of the mountain, do you?”
Xiao Chen looked at her and his expression became serious. Last time in Tomb of Gods and Demons, he had already escaped death countless times. In the end, he almost couldn’t get out. This time, he didn’t want to go to such a place to violate the taboo.
Meng Xian’er looked at the Devil Mountain in front of her and slowly said, “The Devil Scripture that was lost from the Heaven Realm must be at the bottom of this mountain. Although I don’t know who brought it in, I think that person never came out after entering. Perhaps he accidentally triggered the restriction at the bottom of the mountain, causing the restriction of the entire mountain to be sealed again. Perhaps he encountered it …”
“Wait …”
Before she could continue, Xiao Chen interrupted her. Meng Xian’er turned around and looked at him, asking, “What’s wrong?”
Xiao Chen shook his head, “I won’t go with you to the bottom of the mountain.”
Meng Xian’er frowned slightly and said calmly, “Didn’t you promise me that you would help me obtain the Devil Scripture?”
Xiao Chen frowned and said, “Xiao promised to help Fairy find the Devil Scripture. However, you and I do not know what is beneath the Devil Mountain. Besides, how did Fairy determine that the lost Devil Scripture must be beneath the mountain?”
“Sensing …”
Meng Xian’er looked at the Devil Mountain again and said indifferently, “Sometimes, I can sense something, just like how I sensed the restriction just now …” Finally, she turned around and looked at him, “Don’t tell me Young Master Xiao isn’t curious about these ancient things? Don’t you want to know the ancient secrets buried beneath the Devil Mountain?”
Xiao Chen frowned deeply and remained silent. He was not curious about these ancient things. The only thing he wanted to know was why he had a bloodline connection with the blood jade that Master had given him, and why so many Immortal Devil Divine Buddha images had appeared beside him.
Sometimes, he would even have a very strange feeling, as if those Immortal Devil Gods and Buddhas who had died tens of thousands of years ago were part of his body.
Seeing that he was silent, Meng Xian’er said, “How is it? Has Young Master Xiao thought about it clearly? Perhaps there are many ancient things hidden inside …”
Xiao Chen slowly regained his senses. He looked at the strange and heavy Devil Mountain and remained motionless. After a long time, he said, “The restrictions on the mountain are so heavy. Even if we cultivate for a thousand years, we can’t break the restrictions on the mountain. How can we enter the bottom of the mountain?”
Meng Xian’er said, “You and I alone are naturally unable to open the restriction on the mountain. Therefore, we must ask Patriarch Devil Heaven and the others for help this time.”
Back then, she had already thought about it. Although she only wanted to obtain the Devil Scripture herself at the beginning, she was unable to open the restriction of the Devil Mountain by herself. She could only work together with the other three.
As for the Devil Scripture at the foot of the mountain, he could only take one step at a time. At most, he could only read it with the other three people, or it could be divided into four parts, one for each person.
However, no matter what, the four of them would never fight over a single Devil Scripture. After all, there were still the righteous sects of the Xuanqing Sect eyeing them covetously outside. If the four of them were to kill each other, it would not be beneficial to anyone.
“Looking for them?”
The space between Xiao Chen’s eyebrows narrowed. This way, the people from the four great Devil Sects could be considered to be gathered together. Even though he was no longer in Xuanqing, he was definitely not in agreement with these Devil Sects. This time around, he and Meng Xian’er were in a special situation. Obviously, he did not want to interact with the other Devil Sects too much.
Meng Xian’er seemed to have seen through what he was thinking. She said, “Among the sects, each of them only wants what they want, and each of them wants what they want. You don’t need to care about that much. Now, leave this place first. As for the people from the Origin Dao Sect, you don’t need to pay any attention to them anymore.”
Hearing her say this, Xiao Chen finally stopped talking. The two of them left the vicinity. At night, they found another hidden valley. The night breeze was bleak and slightly cold.
The Leng Yue in the sky was like a hook. After contacting Meng Xian’er and the others, Yucha Xuanji immediately sent spiritual messages to the people of the other three sects with spirit stones. Clearly, the people of the other three sects had already arrived in this endless mountain range in order to find clues to the Devil Scripture.
In the middle of the night, the north wind became even colder. The entire forest was gradually covered with a layer of bone-piercing chill. Meng Xian’er sat under a large tree, her eyes closed, and she was quietly circulating her cultivation to recover her cultivation.
Xiao Chen, on the other hand, was holding a Spiritual Energy Jade Paper under another tree not far from her, attempting to send a Spiritual message to Hua Weiyang. However, the Spiritual message could not be sent out of this mountain range.
