Zhang Ling snorted, somewhat disbelieving, and then a series of sword lights flew from his hand, attacking one spot on the five-colored spiritual light.
Amidst a series of booming sounds, the five-colored spiritual light remained unscathed. He then used three flying swords to form a giant sword for attack. With a flash of azure light, the area of the five-colored spiritual light that was struck emitted a great white light, revealing a five- or six-zhang-long white mark.
Seeing this, Zhang Ling thought there was a chance. Azure light flickered around him as he summoned five flying swords. He manipulated them with a hand seal, and the flying swords shone with azure light, merging together. After seven or eight breaths, a cyan sword, fully ten zhang in length, was swung out by him.
With a thunderous roar, it directly struck the location of the white mark. Instantly, fine cracks appeared on the white mark, as if it would shatter at any moment.
With a thought, spiritual light flickered from his sleeve, and five or six spiritual talismans of various colors appeared in Zhang Ling's palm. He wanted to strike while the iron was hot, activating several high-level spiritual talismans at once to join the attack, hoping to break a hole in the five-colored light screen and escape.
But suddenly, around the white mark that had been struck by the sword light, streaks of five-colored spiritual light, like electric arcs, emerged.
Zhang Ling cursed inwardly and retreated backward. Just as he retreated five or six zhang, the white mark suddenly turned black. Finally, with a crackling sound, a bolt of azure lightning, a zhang thick, struck down directly at the spot where he had been standing.
After an explosion, the air at the spot where he had been standing seemed to be ignited, and wisps of blue smoke could be seen dissipating.
Zhang Ling couldn't help but utter an expletive, his lips turning pale. Fortunately, he had dodged quickly; if he had been struck by that bolt of azure lightning, he would have been severely injured even if he didn't die.
The white mark that had been created by the attack twisted and turned, reforming into the five-colored spiritual light.
This gave him a sense of disappointment. It seemed that this place was indeed set up with the Four Spirits Heaven Sealing Grand Array. Although the light screen appeared to have weakened a lot, it seemed that he alone could not break through it.
Zhang Ling gave up on attacking the five-colored light screen again and released his spiritual sense to look around. The five-colored light covered the entire sky, encompassing a hundred li radius around the center of Hundred Spirits Pool.
Such a change here must have been noticed by Demon City. The Scarlet Fire King had also arrived here. Now it seemed he could only wait and see.
Just as he was feeling depressed and helpless, he suddenly sensed powerful spiritual energy fluctuations coming from below.
He couldn't help but look down, only to see that the swamp below was rapidly swirling like water. Whirlpools dozens of zhang wide appeared in the swamp. Even more astonishing, a huge whirlpool, hundreds of zhang wide, had formed where the mountain pillar had been.
Strangely, within that whirlpool, a ghostly green light flickered uncertainly, looking somewhat frightening.
Naturally, Zhang Ling was not the only one to observe this phenomenon. At this moment, Huang Ying was standing beside the western teleportation array, observing everything.
At the same time, the cultivators and half-demons who were fighting here had also stopped, all watching this phenomenon with a sense of bewilderment.
Some half-demon cultivators also noticed the changes in the teleportation array, and their faces turned ugly. Some cultivators, like Zhang Ling, attacked the light on the teleportation array and the five-colored light screen in the sky, but to no avail.
For a time, the atmosphere here became strange.
……
A hundred zhang deep beneath the swamp, there was a dark underground cave.
A golden cloud flashed through the winding passage, and soon arrived at a very large space. In this space stood some tall stone pillars, engraved with many array patterns, but most of them were dark and sunken, seemingly having lost their function.
The ground was also covered with a layer of dark green jade, on which a palace complex was built. It covered a large area of space, as if monks lived here.
But now it was a dark mass, most of the palaces were dilapidated, many buildings had collapsed, hidden in the thick dust, as if in a ruin.
The golden cloud seemed to be very familiar with this place, and flew directly over a half-collapsed palace. Rotating, it released the golden cauldron again. The glow flickered, and five-colored light balls flew out of it, and golden spiritual power hit it, and the five-colored light balls turned into dense runes and submerged into the ground.
Suddenly, the ground lit up with five-colored spiritual light, and at this moment, it could be seen that this palace was very strange, the whole was cyan, and it seemed to be built with some kind of wood. As the spiritual light flashed, the ground shook violently.
Stop it!
A violent shout came, and the Scarlet Fire King also arrived here, and thick flames attacked directly.
Jin Yun was not to be outdone and released a large amount of golden sword light. The two Nascent Soul-level old monsters fought, making the entire space shake even more violently.
"Hehe, fire dog, the core of this place's formation is the Yin Wood Cauldron, and the old man's Qianling Cauldron is just right to restrain it. The old monster is about to come out, and you can't stop it."
"Okay, okay, okay, if you dare to destroy the Hidden Demon Valley's great formation, aren't you afraid that the demon kings will leave you here."
The Scarlet Fire King's eyes were on fire, and he laughed angrily. The blazing fire burst out from his body, and the surrounding rocks and rocks also became red, and many of them melted directly. It could be seen that this transformed demon clan had become angry.
"I dare not say anywhere else, but the Hidden Demon Valley really can't trap the old man. Unless you invite your new king out, although there are many transforming demon kings here, they are all retreating in Black Wind Cave. At most three or four demon kings are active in Hidden Demon Valley now. Do you think you can stop me?" The arrogant laughter came from Jin Yun, and he didn't seem to take the Scarlet Fire King's words seriously.
The Scarlet Fire King's face sank, and he was shocked. Why did this person know so much about the situation in the Hidden Demon Valley? Just as this person said, although there are more than ten demon kings in the Hidden Demon Valley, most of them are retreating in the secret realm. Few come out to move around.
For a time, the Scarlet Fire King was angry and depressed. This person's strength was close to the peak of the Nascent Soul Mid-Stage. He could only draw at most in a one-on-one battle. If they were at this level, it would be difficult to stop them if they were determined to escape. Although he had concerns in his heart, the Scarlet Fire King continued to increase his attack.
"Oh, is what you said too presumptuous."
Suddenly, a clear male voice sounded next to him. The voice was not loud, but the Scarlet Fire King and the monks in Jin Yun heard it clearly.
I saw a green-haired fox appearing at the entrance of a rock cave not far from the battle group at some point.
This fox was only ten feet in size, but had six tails behind it. The pair of slender fox eyes were dark and did not contain a trace of white, which was very strange.
When the Scarlet Fire King saw the fox, he immediately shouted happily. "Qinghu, quickly follow this king to capture this person."
"Who is he?"
The fox did not look at the Scarlet Fire King, but stared at the golden cloud and asked. The dark eyes locked on the monks in Jin Yun without a trace of emotion.
