Chapter 204: Rush to the Rescue!
As soon as you entered, you felt your cultivation suppressed by an immense force, and the Great Dao you cultivated was severely affected as well.
“ROAR!!!!” The roars of demonic beasts came from all around. From the pressure contained in the roars alone, you could tell they were at least Fusion realm demons!
“This is bad, how did we alert them!” Sun Wu’s expression changed slightly as he looked at the road ahead, hesitating and not daring to advance.
Seeing this, you could not help but clap Sun Wu on the shoulder. “What are you standing around for? Let’s go.”
“Fellow Daoist, for the road ahead, you must listen to me!” Sun Wu said solemnly.
You nodded to show you understood.
Sun Wu gritted his teeth and led you formally into the true Death Canyon!
With Sun Wu leading the way, your journey was very safe. Even when you encountered minor troubles, Sun Wu resolved them one by one.
Along the way, you tried to spread out your Primordial Spirit power, and ultimately discovered that with your current Primordial Spirit power, you could only cover a range of a hundred zhang around you.
Affected by the special rule power of this place, your strength was severely damaged!
However, after testing your physical body’s power, you found that although there was an effect, it was not much.
Your physical body’s power could still produce eighty percent of its full strength here!
As long as I don’t encounter a Tribulation Transcendence stage demonic beast, I can protect myself. You thought silently.
“This is the territory of the Great Demon Yaoyue. We need to be careful,” Sun Wu warned.
“The Great Demon Yaoyue?”
“That’s right, one of the four Demon Kings of Death Canyon, with cultivation at the complete Fusion realm!” Sun Wu explained.
Afterward, you saw Sun Wu take out various items and sprinkle them over his body, concealing his aura to avoid being discovered by the Demon King.
“You…” Sun Wu held the items in his hand, looking at you.
You shook your head, then withdrew your own aura until it was completely hidden.
“Sen-Senior…” Sun Wu looked at you in shock. At this moment, he stood before you yet could not sense your aura at all.
“Let’s go,” you urged.
Wandering through the Demon King’s territory, you spread out your Primordial Spirit power to search the surroundings, looking for traces of the Ancestor.
You explored the Great Demon Yaoyue’s entire territory, only to find nothing.
“It’s fine, there are still the other three Demon Kings,” Sun Wu comforted.
You shook your head, your gaze turning toward the Great Demon Yaoyue’s cave residence. That was the only place you had not yet explored.
“Senior, that is a Demon King at the complete Fusion realm!” Following your gaze, Sun Wu was given a great fright and hurriedly warned.
Hearing this, you silently pondered for a moment, and finally decided to explore other places first. If you truly could not find any trace of the Ancestor, then it would not be too late to check the Demon King’s cave residence.
Ten days later, under Sun Wu’s guidance, you explored all four Demon Kings’ territories, only to find nothing.
You looked at the distant Demon King cave residences and knew this was now inevitable!
“Sen-Senior, this junior is weak in strength, so there’s no need for me to go in, right?” Sun Wu wiped the sweat from his face and said carefully.
“Hm?”
“Deal, you have to pay more!”
“Exploring a Demon King’s cave residence is a different price!”
You casually tossed over a bag of spirit stones. Sun Wu caught it and was overjoyed, immediately taking the initiative to lead you deeper.
“The master of this cave residence is the White Tiger Demon King. I know a small path that leads into the interior of the cave residence!”
Under Sun Wu’s guidance, you entered the Demon King’s cave residence without obstruction the entire way.
You felt this batch of spirit stones was well spent!
After entering the cave residence, your brow furrowed slightly. You did not find any trace of the White Tiger Demon King.
“At this time, it should still be in seclusion,” Sun Wu whispered.
“Hm???” You could not help but glance at Sun Wu again. Even knowing this — truly extraordinary!
“Senior must hurry. We can stay here at most half an hour. Any longer and we’ll be exposed!”
Your Primordial Spirit power filled the entire cave residence. Moments later, you frowned slightly and opened your eyes, looking toward a corner of the cave residence.
There, you saw a fragment of a broken Dharma artifact, with blood still remaining on it.
“To shatter an Earth-rank Dharma artifact — what kind of cultivation would that take!” Looking at the Dharma artifact fragment in your hand, Sun Wu said in shock from the side.
“No, this is Heaven-rank!” Through the aura remaining on the fragment, you already knew the artifact’s owner was one of your Heavenly Blade Sect’s Tribulation Transcendence stage Ancestors!
“Where is the White Tiger Demon King’s seclusion site?!” You had searched everywhere, yet found no trace of the Ancestor. The only place you had not explored was the Demon King’s seclusion site!
“Ah, this… Senior, you overestimate this junior too much. That is a Demon King’s seclusion site — how would this junior know?” Sun Wu said with a bitter smile.
Without another word, you tossed over a bag of spirit stones.
A moment later, Sun Wu put away the spirit stones and looked at you with a smile. “Senior, please follow me. This junior knows several places that are likely the Demon King’s seclusion sites.”
Sun Wu swaggered through the Demon King’s cave residence as if it were his own home.
A moment later, Sun Wu brought you to a secret chamber, then triggered some mechanism unknown to you, and a large door slowly emerged.
“You call this likely?”
“Cough cough, Senior, be careful. This Demon King is powerful, and this junior is no match. I won’t go in.” Sun Wu stepped aside and made a gesture of invitation.
In the next instant, you grabbed Sun Wu’s arm and dragged him through the door together.
Inside, in a room a hundred meters wide, you looked and saw the White Tiger Demon King, long since dead!
“This… How could that possibly be!!!” Looking at the corpse on the ground, Sun Wu was utterly shocked.
After observing for a while, you suddenly smiled. The wounds on the White Tiger Demon King’s body were caused by the Heavenly Blade Sect’s techniques.
“Eh, what’s this?” Sun Wu shifted the White Tiger Demon King’s corpse, revealing a mark that had been pressed beneath it.
Seeing the mark, you became even more certain — it was left by your Heavenly Blade Sect Ancestor!
You quickly circulated the Heavenly Blade Sect’s secret technique and activated the mark.
A phantom slowly appeared, looking at you with a solemn expression. “The Heavenly Blade Ancestor is trapped in the depths of Death Canyon. Heavenly Blade Sect disciples, come quickly to the rescue!”
The figure slowly vanished, leaving only specks of starlight that sank into your body.
