As the Universe Turns - Chapter 637
Chapter 637 Under Restriction
Taking a deep breath, Shen Quezi looked at the entrance of the Demon Mountain restriction and said coldly, “Now that Xiao Yichen and Meng Xian’er have entered, you should know what the cultivation of the Dark Nether Lord and the others are. If we rashly enter now, they won’t have any chance of winning.”
With his ability, it wouldn’t be difficult for him to alert the others here and quietly enter the bottom of the mountain. However, the only thing he was afraid of was Patriarch Motian and the others. However, if he waited for Meng Xian’er and Xiao Chen to come out, then he would have no chance to capture them. Meng Xian’er’s cultivation was not below him.
Feng Wuyin said, “If we meet those people head-on, we really don’t have a chance of winning right now, but they might not be able to disperse. Once we disperse, our chance will come. Meng Xian’er has maintained the formation here these past few days, and his strength will definitely not be able to recover to its peak …”
Shen Quezi looked at him. At this moment, he seemed to understand his plan. However, doing so was a bit desperate. However, if he wanted to capture the two of them, he had no choice but to take a risk.
Feng Wuyin smiled faintly, as if he had a plan in mind, “I have my own way, but the Divine Fault Elder has to expend all his effort to completely conceal our aura, so that they won’t be able to discover it …”
…
As expected, there was something else underneath the Demon Mountain. The moment the five of them arrived at the bottom, they immediately felt a heavy aura of the Devil God. This place was like a lost world. If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, it would have been unbelievable.
Xiao Chen couldn’t help but think of the last time he went to the Sword Tomb in the dense forest. It was the same below. It was like a world buried underground. However, at this moment, this place was clearly much wider than the last time, as if it was boundless.
At this moment, the heavy devil aura beneath the Devil Mountain was even more suffocating. Even on that trip to the Eastern Continent, Xiao Chen had never felt such a heavy devil aura in the Devil God Tomb.
At this moment, he couldn’t help but have a very absurd idea. Could it be that beneath this demonic mountain, there was a dead ancient god devil suppressed? And right now, they were actually inside this Fiendgod’s body. Such an ancient Fiendgod’s body, even after death, was like an endless world to mortals.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, there was no difference between night and day at the foot of the mountain. However, the aura of the Fiendgods in front of them was getting heavier and heavier, causing people to gradually feel suffocated.
The few of them finally stopped. The White Cloud Pavilion Master looked at the secluded place in front of him and said, “If we continue to search like this, we will undoubtedly be looking for a needle in a haystack. Heaven knows where the Devil Scripture landed.”
Meng Xian’er said, “The size of this place has indeed exceeded my expectations. However, I am certain that the Devil Scripture must have been brought into this place thousands of years ago, and that person has not left since.”
“Why is Fairy so sure?”
Pavilion Master Baiyun looked at her. Meng Xian’er narrowed his eyebrows and said, “Sensing, if that’s right, then that person should have been chased. Then, the ghost messenger encountered the Demon Mountain restriction and accidentally crashed into the bottom of the mountain. However, not long after, the restriction on the top was sealed again. Therefore, none of the people who chased down were able to escape alive at that time.”
After listening to her, the White Cloud Pavilion Master smiled, “Since Fairy Out of the Dust’s sensing ability is so strong, then why couldn’t I sense who chased Xiao Cangtian into the Xuanqing Earth Realm with the remnants of the Heavenly Book?”
Suddenly, when he heard what happened to Senior Monster, Xiao Chen froze. At this moment, Pavilion Master White Cloud also looked at him and said, “Everyone says that you have a good relationship with Xiao Cangtian, and that you know his true legacy. Do you know where Xiao Cangtian is now?”
Actually, back at the top, the few of them had been thinking about this matter. Although the matter of the Devil Scripture was important, the remnants of the Heavenly Book were no small matter. However, at that time, the few of them didn’t mention this matter because they wanted to work together. However, at this moment, Pavilion Master White Cloud suddenly brought this matter out. It was unknown what his intentions were.
The atmosphere gradually became somewhat tense. Regarding what happened back then, Xiao Chen really wanted to know who chased after Senior Xuan Qing and forced him to hide beneath the back mountain. This matter was most likely related to the destruction of Ning Village, but now, where could he find Xiao Cangtian?
If we can’t find the strange senior who taught him the profound arts back then, then all of this will remain a mystery. No one can solve it. The lives of more than three hundred people in Ning Village, the vengeful souls will never dissipate, as well as Ah Niang, Ah Niang …
Every time he thought of this, an extremely heavy hostility would suddenly arise in Xiao Chen’s heart. If he could not find that person and offer sacrifices to the souls of more than three hundred people, this hatred would never be quelled. Even if he fell into the abyss the next day, he would definitely take revenge for it.
“Alright, the most important thing now is to find the location of the Devil Scripture. We’ll talk about the rest when we get out.”
At this moment, Patriarch Motian stepped forward. Finally, he looked at Xiao Chen. He thought in his heart, this child’s demonic heart had been secretly planted in the matter of Xuanqing back then. Now that his heart was so deep, it was only a matter of time before he entered the demon realm. When this child entered the demon realm, Xiao Cangtian would definitely appear. There was no need to be anxious at this moment. Let the Righteous Dao sects outside make trouble for themselves.
Everyone continued to peek forward. Unknowingly, three days had passed outside. Yu Qixuan Ji, Xie Tianluo, and the others had been guarding outside for a while. However, there was not a single sound coming from inside these three days. The disciples of the various sects couldn’t help but start to feel a little anxious.
At this moment, the five of them had been searching for three whole days under the restriction of the Demon Mountain. They had roughly figured out the situation below. If what they had expected was correct, there would be layers of restrictions below. Between each layer, there was an extremely heavy restriction.
At this moment, they were only on the first floor. The further down they went, the more dangerous they became. Without absolute strength, it was impossible for them to reach the lower floors.
“Looks like this is only the first floor. It will probably take a lot of effort to get to the second floor.”
The few of them stopped again. Pavilion Master White Cloud looked at the pitch-black land in the distance and said slowly.
Meng Xian’er said, “We didn’t come here to explore the bottom of the Devil Mountain, but to find the lost Devil Scripture. It was impossible for that person to bring the Devil Scripture to the second floor, so we don’t need to go to the second floor now. When we both break through to the Ruined Heavens Realm in the future, we can come back here to explore.”
“Fairy Chuchen’s words are reasonable. After a hundred years, when both of us enter the Harmonious Stage, it won’t be too late for us to visit again. At the very least, we won’t lose to Old Daoist Qingxuan at that time …”
The Dark Nether Secluded Monarch said gloomily. There was no one here who didn’t want to take a look at the second floor below. However, their current cultivation levels were extremely high for ordinary people. However, they didn’t have absolute strength. If they rashly went down, they would most likely encounter some unknown dangers. The situation outside was unstable, so it was not appropriate for them to take this risk at this time.
Just as the Dark Nether Secluded Monarch’s voice fell, a tremor suddenly came from afar. This tremor was extremely fierce and swift, causing the expressions of the few of them to freeze. “What’s going on?”
All of a sudden, it was as if space had collapsed in all directions. Cracks appeared on the ground and began to collapse. Countless cracks appeared in the air, causing dust to billow.
“Shit …”
Seeing this, Pavilion Master White Cloud immediately reacted, “Someone has triggered the restriction above … quickly dodge!”
However, with the rapid collapse of this place and the sudden appearance of an extremely heavy restriction, even though the four of them weren’t ordinary people, how could they escape just by escaping?
Before the four of them could unleash their movement techniques, a trembling force surged forth like a tremendous wave. The few of them immediately stomped on the ground. In panic, Meng Xian’er stretched out her hand and a white ribbon flew out from her sleeve, instantly wrapping around Xiao Chen.
“Rumble!”
The shockwaves were endless. Under the layers of restrictive power, everyone felt that they had suffered heavy injuries, and a mouthful of blood gushed out from their throats.
After an unknown amount of time, the smoke and dust in the surroundings gradually dissipated, and the vibration finally stopped. Meng Xian’er, however, did not know where she had fallen to. She was originally dressed in white clothes and was not stained with dust, but at this moment, she looked a little embarrassed.
“Xiao Yichen … where are you?”
There was still a wisp of blood on the corner of her mouth. Meng Xian’er’s face was pale. She forcefully pulled the ribbon in her hand. With a “bang”, the ribbon broke. Xiao Chen fell into a pile of rubble. He was pressed down by a few huge rocks, and blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
Meng Xian’er quickly walked over and slapped away the huge boulder on his body, asking, “How are you?”
“No, it’s fine …”
Xiao Chen tried his best to sit up and wipe away the blood from the corner of his mouth. He looked around, only to see a vast expanse of space. Not a single person could be seen. He asked, “Where are they?”
Meng Xian’er immediately took out the transmission jade letter. However, before she could send out a spiritual message, the jade letter shattered. Obviously, everyone’s jade letter had been destroyed by the restrictive force just now.
“There is no one within a hundred miles. They should have landed somewhere else. The space here is full of strangeness. Perhaps they are very far away from us now, so there is no way to find them anymore …”
Meng Xian’er said slowly. Xiao Chen looked at her and saw that her white dress was already in pieces, and her skin was exposed. He asked, “How are your injuries?”
Only then did Meng Xian’er notice that her clothes were fragmented. She immediately reached out to cover her chest and said, “Nothing …”
The two of them looked around and didn’t know where they had fallen. A cold light suddenly flashed in Meng Xian’er’s eyes as she said in a deep voice, “There won’t be any accidents with the formation for no reason, but there was something wrong with the restriction on it just now. If my guess is correct, it’s Feng Wuyin and Shen Que Zi …”
“It’s the two of them …”
Xiao Chen’s eyebrows narrowed. Before he could finish his words, Meng Xian’er’s expression suddenly changed. It was as if she had sensed something in an instant. At this moment, a faint male laugh suddenly sounded out from the darkness in the distance. “Fairy Out of the Dust, you really have a brilliant plan …”
