The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 319
Chapter 319 Ancient God’s Tower (5)
This was the legendary Nine Nine Lock Demon Array!
In front of the Sky Bearing Pillar stood two men in black robes, holding a huge drum in their hands and knocking on it rhythmically.
These two people were indeed the man and woman of the Myriad Demon Sect!
Li Qing walked closer and discovered that this pillar was not a pillar at all. It was actually a huge piece of wood!
No, to be exact, it was a tree with only its trunk left, and there were enormous roots beneath it.
This tree hasn’t died yet!
It looked as if someone had roughly uprooted all the branches and leaves of the tree, leaving behind only a bare trunk.
Clearly, this tree that only had a trunk left was the Great Demon that had been sealed!
This was a tree demon!
Even if it was sealed, it still contained a terrifying demonic aura, affecting the entire forest.
The trees in the forest were obviously different from the ones in the outside world. They were filled with a gloomy aura. The tree body was twisted randomly. Clearly, it was the result of the demonic aura emitted by this tree demon.
As this tree only had a trunk left, Li Qing could not recognize what kind of tree it was, but that big drum reminded him of some of its origins.
“This is the Xuantian Formation Breaking Drum!” Li Qing’s expression became serious. The treasure that could produce such an effect on the seal was probably that item.
This Profound Heaven Formation Breaking Drum could be said to be famous. It was one of the few items in the world that could be used to break formations.
What was even more terrifying was that this Profound Heaven Formation Breaking Drum was actually a Dao Artifact!
That’s right, it’s a Dao Artifact!
To be exact, this was the Dao Artifact of the past, but it was not anymore. The scenery had long since disappeared.
The reason for that was because the Profound Heaven Shattering Formation Drum was extremely ancient. It was a treasure of the Profound Heaven Sect in the Middle Ages. After several battles, it was severely damaged and repaired. It fell in rank and turned into a spirit artifact.
Over the years, the Xuantian Shattering Formation Drum had been damaged several times and repaired several times. Now that the treasure had fallen into the hands of the Myriad Demon Sect, it had not been completely repaired. It was still of the grade of a spirit artifact.
Even so, this drum was still an extremely terrifying treasure. A skinny camel was bigger than a horse, and this treasure was much more powerful than an ordinary spirit artifact.
It could be said that with this drum, most of the formations in the world would not be able to stop the drum from breaking through.
Right now, the woman in black was holding this Profound Heaven Formation Breaking Drum in her hand, breaking the seal on this place, wanting to release the Tree Demon.
How could such a precious treasure be brought here? Who was this woman? How could he have such a precious thing?
With this series of questions, Li Qing stepped into this sealed place.
His appearance quickly attracted the attention of the two people. When they turned around and saw Li Qing’s arrival, their expressions couldn’t help but change.
“It’s you?”
“That’s right, it’s me!” Li Qing sneered as he approached, “Indeed, it is your Myriad Demon Sect’s people who are breaking the seal! What conspiracy is there? The demon sect’s people are really hard to change their nature. It’s not worth mentioning to do construction, but destroying it is first-rate.”
“I advise you not to meddle in other people’s affairs. Don’t think that you are very strong, but you are just an ant in front of me. It’s too easy for me to crush you to death.” The black-clothed man snorted coldly, extremely arrogant.
“Oh?” Li Qing’s gaze narrowed. This black-clothed man dared to say such a big thing. He must have relied on it. Perhaps he had some powerful treasure on him.
The woman in black suddenly said, “Don’t be too careless. Be careful that he has a very sharp knife. Don’t face him head-on.”
Li Qing’s expression changed and his gaze became serious, “What did you discover? When did you see that I had a very sharp knife?”
The woman in black smiled charmingly, “When you killed the Ice Dragon, I happened to be hiding by the side and saw you kill it with a purple knife.”
“Since you’ve discovered my secret, then I can only kill you!” Li Qing revealed his killing intent.
The woman in black smiled and said, “It seems that the origin of that treasured saber is extraordinary. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be so nervous. What kind of treasure is this?”
Obviously, she had the intention of probing just now to see if the purple saber was Li Qing’s secret.
“Cut the crap, go to hell!”
The more he said, the more he was tested. Li Qing stopped talking nonsense and struck out with his palm.
Boom!
The black-clothed man waved his hand. A huge black door appeared in the air in front of him. There were many terrifying relief sculptures carved on the door. There were all sorts of evil ghosts in hell, as well as Taotie, Qiongqi, Taowu, Chaos and other ferocious beasts. Their faces were ferocious, and their auras were fierce and lifelike, as if they wanted to devour someone else.
Tyranny, viciousness, cruelty, and other artistic conception mixed together to form an invisible font: Demon!
This door was completely black, emitting an aura of dominance and supremacy.
“This is the Gate of Myriad Demons!” Li Qing was shocked.
Too similar! Back then, in the purple world beneath the Eternal Demon Abyss, there was such a door! The one in front of him was exactly the same.
The difference was that the door was black, not purple, and its aura was much weaker.
“You know your stuff!” The black-clothed man laughed loudly, “With this Myriad Demon Gate, no matter how powerful you are, what fear do I have?”
“Hmph, you can lie to ghosts. This is clearly a replica of the Door of Myriad Demons.” Li Qing sneered. The real Door of Myriad Demons stood in the purple world.
If this was a true Myriad Demon Sect, then there was no need to fight at all. Just letting out a big devil from it could destroy the heavens and destroy the earth.
Speaking of which, although this Myriad Demon Gate in front of him was a replica, it was also extremely terrifying. It was a spirit artifact that possessed unbelievable power.
Li Qing felt that it was impossible for this black-clothed man to possess such a precious treasure. It was possible that it was given to him by the elders of the Myriad Demons Sect for this mission.
Ordinary Xiantian experts simply couldn’t display the true power of spirit artifacts, so they didn’t need to be too afraid. However, the Myriad Demon Gate in front of him was different, because this thing did not require too much True Essence to control. All it needed to do was open the door and release the devil inside.
The Door of Myriad Demons, as its name implied, contained thousands of terrifying devils.
“Even if it’s a replica, it’s enough to kill you!” The black-clothed man laughed loudly.
The black light on his body surged, and a black aura flashed on his face. He muttered something, and then shot out a black demonic aura into the Gate of Myriad Demons.
“Door of Myriad Demons, open!”
Kacha! Kacha!
The ancient door slowly opened, revealing an unknown terror. The interior of the door was pitch black, as if it was connected to a different dimensional space.
“Come out! Demons!” The black-clothed man shouted loudly.
A terrifying aura rose from the Demon Gate, and ten great devils that were covered in black gas came out one after another.
The strength of these ten great devils was shockingly at the seventh level of the Xiantian realm!
Even if a Xiantian eighth layer expert saw the ten Xiantian seventh layer great devils, they would still have to run away, unable to face them head-on. No wonder this black-clothed man was so fearless.
“Haha, go ahead and kill him!” The black-clothed man laughed loudly and pointed.
Li Qing’s expression was a little strange when he saw these great devils.
If an ordinary person were to encounter such a situation, they would definitely not be able to defeat him and would have escaped long ago. However, Li Qing was different. He happened to have a very good understanding of the Door of Myriad Demons.
Because he was the inheritor of the Demon Ancestor, even the real Door of Myriad Demons was refined by the Demon Ancestor, let alone this replica? The methods of refining the Door of Myriad Devils that were passed down in the world all originated from the Devil Ancestor.
Just as this gate appeared, Li Qing recalled the situation regarding the Myriad Demons Gate in the Demon Ancestor’s inheritance memories.
There was a Myriad Demon Space inside the Door of Myriad Demons, and there were thousands of great demons inside the Myriad Demon Space.
The origins of these great devils were very simple. They were the souls of the dead, and even the souls of the dead demonic beasts. They were terrifying existences that had been refined by special methods. They were extremely evil.
These great devils didn’t have bodies, and they were carried by demonic energy. Therefore, Li Qing could see that the ten great devils in front of him were all covered in black gas.
The method of refining the devil head was created by the devil ancestor. It was called “Prison Fire Soul Refining”. Li Qing knew every detail of it.
The Demon Ancestor did not pass down the complete version of the Hellfire Soul Refining Technique. Everything that was passed down in the world had a simplified version, and there was a fatal flaw hidden in it.
This was intentionally done by the Demon Ancestor, leaving behind a backhand to control his subordinates.
It was precisely because of this flaw that Li Qing was so fearless. Because he just happened to know of a way to restrain these great devils.
…
The black-clothed man was full of confidence and became even more arrogant, “Brat, you can die now!”
Ten great devils rushed over.
“Demonic Soul Heavenly Curse!” Li Qing coldly spat out these four words. Then, he began to chant some strange notes, forming an incantation. It was like an ancient sound. No one could understand these syllables.
Normal humans didn’t have any effect when they heard such strange incantations. However, those great devils were different. After hearing these incantations, they had actually undergone tremendous changes.
“Gulu! Gulu!”
These great devils stopped abruptly. The demonic energy on their bodies was constantly surging, as if they were emitting hot bubbles. Their shapes were violently changing, and they were torn apart like dough.
“Not good, what’s the situation?” The black-clothed man was shocked. He felt that these great devils were no longer under his control.
He was a little panicked, he had never seen such a situation before. The Gate of Myriad Demons was refined by an orthodox method passed down from ancient times. How could there be a problem?
“Unity of Myriad Demons!” The black-clothed man responded urgently.
These ten great devils had gathered together to form an even more powerful Great Devil. In order to resist this inexplicable power, it actually didn’t have much effect. The body of the devil was simply out of control, let alone a battle.
