Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 324: Great treachery appears loyal

If Luo Yujin proves that he can reach the immortal realm, the sealed gods and demons may go to him for refuge. To seek refuge with him, they must break the seal of memory. If they want to break the seal of memory, then Su Scholar, your little head will explode with a bang..."

Ying Ying flew up and gestured beside Su Yun's head, spreading her hands outward and making an explosion gesture. She said seriously, "Most likely, you will be decapitated above the neck, and blood will gush out from the severed part. I wonder if you can use the technique of creation to grow a new head at that time? I think it's unlikely."

Su Yun groaned, feeling uneasy about what this little book monster said.

The gods and demons behind the rune wall are indeed unstable factors.

Not to mention anything else, just the fact that the sealed gods and demons are divided into the divine and demonic factions gives Luo Yujin an opportunity.

The human demons are good at manipulating people's hearts and sowing discord. Even the gods and demons are likely to follow his path and fall into self-destruction.

Moreover, Luo Yujin's words were full of confidence, indicating that he does have the assurance to directly ascend to the immortal realm.

By then, if he proves that he has the assurance to directly ascend to the immortal realm, he can first release the gods and demons from Su Yun's memory, blow up Su Yun's head directly, and then incite a war between the gods and demons, killing them until they are all wiped out. This is not impossible!

So, where does Luo Yujin's confidence come from?

"Although Yue Liuxi is the Saint of the Sword Pavilion, it is not necessary for Luo Yujin, the former Saint Emperor, to personally take action to kill him. So Luo Yujin came here, he must have another purpose!"

Su Yun's spirit was lifted, his eyes sharp, and he pondered, "To fly up here, you need an astonishing speed, at least thirty times the speed of sound to leave our world and come to the outside world. Luo Yujin may not have this speed, so he needs to rely on the heavenly ship and support the New Learning. So his purpose in coming here to support the New Learning and create the heavenly ship is probably related to what he said about directly ascending to the immortal realm!"

Ying Ying pondered, "Winged Dragon has also been here, and left a mark of having been here. In that city just now, there were also footprints left by him. Winged Dragon can achieve this speed and also come here."

"It shows that there really is something here!"

The two looked at each other and said in unison, "That thing, Winged Dragon didn't find it, and Luo Yujin didn't find it either! It is still in this continent!"

Su Yun flew up and transformed into a heavenly peng, flapping his wings.

Ying Ying hurriedly said, "Where are you going? Winged Dragon found the ancient city and left a mark of having been here. The direction Luo Yujin just went is the same as the ancient city we left before! That ancient city even survived the aftermath of the battle between the gods and demons and Yue Liuxi. Most likely, that thing is hidden there!"

Su Yun said, "Our purpose in this trip is to find more scholars, fulfill the last wish of the Moon Pavilion Master, and send these scholars back to the Sword Pavilion. Whether or not there is that treasure, we must fulfill the Moon Pavilion Master's dying wish and try to save people!"

Ying Ying said angrily, "The nature of these people has already been influenced by the two demons. They will definitely kill each other or try to leave here. Is it necessary to save them?"

Su Yun said solemnly, "Just do what we can."

Ying Ying sighed helplessly and muttered, "Then that thing can only be taken away by Luo Yujin. By then, your head will explode with a bang... Oh, by the way, Luo Yujin's surname is Luo, and Luo Wanyi's surname is also Luo. What is the relationship between them? Luo Yujin is the Great Qin Saint Emperor, and Luo Wanyi is the Little Qin Saint Emperor."

Su Yun thought for a moment and said, "Luo Wanyi is most likely his descendant, and may even be a direct descendant."

Ying Ying exclaimed excitedly, "If Luo Wanyi is his direct descendant, it means that humans and demons can also reproduce! In that case, Wu Tong can also have children!"

Su Yun scratched his head. How did Ying Ying's thoughts suddenly jump to this?

He searched around and his heart grew heavier. He looked down from a high place and saw many scholars' bodies. There were probably not many scholars who survived this time. "The Moon Pavilion Master's entrustment..."

"I used to think that humans and demons could not have children! Su Scholar, sacrificing yourself to subdue demons is a righteous act!"

Ying Ying said righteously, "As the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, who will? You should dedicate your pure body and marry Wu Tong, that female demon, to resolve the disaster for the world. This is immeasurable merit!"

Su Yun said irritably, "Whoever wants to go to hell can go, but I won't. Ying Ying, we still have important matters to attend to..."

Suddenly, a loud rumbling sound came, and a mountain range rose slowly in front, getting higher and higher, but the rocks were transforming into flesh and blood!

Su Yun was startled, "Another demonic god is nearby! I don't know if it's the demonic god Shentu or Yuyi! Either way, they are not easy to deal with!"

He quickly descended, intending to find a place to hide, but suddenly heard a low voice of a woman, "Su Master, over here!"

Su Yun followed the voice and saw a hidden ancient ruin in the forest, with broken walls and ruins, covered by trees, making it difficult to see clearly from above.

A woman in a green robe waved to him.

Su Yun quickly folded his wings and returned to his true form, landing.

Yu Qingluo greeted him and whispered, "Quick, follow me! Be careful not to be discovered by Shentu! Remember, do not use spiritual powers, as he is most sensitive to spiritual powers."

At this time, the mountain range floating in the sky had completely transformed into flesh and blood, and the mountain range was getting smaller and flying towards the gods and demons in the sky.

Su Yun looked up and saw that the fleshy arm was still extremely huge, and the flesh buds at the severed arm looked like red earthworms flying around.

And that demonic god had a ghostly face and a human body, riding on a black tiger, carrying several reed ropes on his shoulder, and a peach wood bow hanging on his shoulder. There was a pot of arrows on the black tiger's back, which seemed to be made by directly cutting and refining with thick thorns.

Su Yun didn't dare to look closely and quickly followed Yu Qingluo.

"Shentu is the demonic god in charge of spiritual powers. It is rumored that he also descends from the heavens."

Yu Qingluo walked lightly, heading deeper into the ruins, and said, "Before the Heavenly Market Wall appeared, there was nowhere for spiritual powers to rely on, chaos was everywhere, and they turned into monsters and demons. Shentu devoured these monsters and demons, and many monsters and demons followed him, forming the Netherworld."

Su Yun, unaware of the origins of Shentu, curiously asked, "How did you come to know about this?"

"It's from the stories recorded by the elder Shenlong."

Yu Qingluo said, "After the Moon Pavilion Master was attacked, I went to the Fire Cloud Cave to investigate the origins of these gods and demons. Where is the Moon Pavilion Master?"

Su Yun fell silent, not uttering a word.

Seeing this, Yu Qingluo seemed to understand something. She didn't press further, leading him to a passage that led straight to the underground ruins. "I came here with Yan Qingzhou, Yi Chaohua, and a few other senior brothers on a small boat. Before we could land, an anomaly occurred with the skyship. Fortunately, we discovered these ruins and hurriedly took shelter. The mute senior brother from Tongtian Pavilion is proficient in architecture and construction. He somehow managed to open this underground palace, and they have already gone down."

.

Su Yun was both surprised and delighted, "They are also here?"

Yu Qingluo nodded, "There are also a few scholars from our Tianxiang Pavilion here."

Su Yun followed her into the underground palace, puzzled, "Weren't they affected by the demonic influence?"

"You mean the voice in their Dao hearts?"

Yu Qingluo activated her true essence, and a bright moon appeared in front of them, illuminating their path. "Eliminating heart demons is a necessary lesson for every scholar. When I saw them being controlled by their heart demons, I helped them eliminate them."

Su Yun was full of admiration, "If it weren't for Wu Tong's foot breaking my Dao heart and disturbing my mind, I wouldn't have lost to Wu Tong and acknowledged her as my senior sister. I must learn more from you, Qingluo, about this skill of eliminating heart demons."

Yu Qingluo turned her head, surprised, "Master Su, how did your Dao heart get broken by a demon's foot? That's strange."

Su Yun's face turned red, and he quickly looked at the walls of the passage, "Are there any murals on these walls?"

"No."

Yu Qingluo's eyelashes fluttered as she continued to watch him, waiting for his explanation.

It was indeed strange that Wu Tong had broken the Dao heart of Master Su with just her foot. Without a clear explanation, she couldn't understand.

Su Yun awkwardly said, "Wu Tong always goes barefoot, and her legs are very smooth... Watch your step."

Yu Qingluo seemed to understand but didn't press further, "Although there are no murals in this passage, there are texts in the underground palace. They are in the language of the Ashen."

Su Yun was taken aback, exclaiming, "Ashen language? The people on the planet Yinghuo, are they Ashen creatures?"

"Brother Yan Qingzhou said so."

Yu Qingluo said, "I don't understand the Ashen language either. Brother Yan Qingzhou read it and said that this place is the sacrificial site of the Fire Virtue God."

"A sacrificial site?"

Ying Ying popped out from Su Yun's spirit realm, curious, "A sacrificial site, why would it be underground?"

Yu Qingluo said, "I was wondering the same thing. The mute senior brother wrote on a piece of paper that this underground palace was not originally an imperial palace, but was on the surface. After being hit by the Tian Shi Yuan, there were earthquakes and volcanic eruptions that buried it underground. Despite being buried, there are still many ancient seals and prohibitions left here, which are quite troublesome."

Ying Ying laughed, "No wonder Winged Dragon and Luo Yujin both went to the wrong place! They ran to that ancient city, but they didn't realize that the real treasure was buried underground! Su Scholar, I think the thing Luo Yujin is looking for must be hidden here!"

Su Yun's eyes flickered, "I suddenly remembered, the Overseas Tongtian Pavilion also sent a group of people to this shattered star. Could these people..."

In the ancient city, the white-haired young man Luo Yujin looked up at the statues in the city with his hands behind his back. Many masters from the Overseas Tongtian Pavilion were quickly searching the city.

Wu Tong and Jiao Shu'Ao followed behind him, waiting quietly.

Luo Yujin laughed, "The descendants of the Fire Virtue God are not completely extinct. They escaped to the Tian Shi Yuan and continued to rule there. Later, I heard that the subordinates of the Fire Virtue God rebelled, killed the descendants of the Fire Virtue God, and established themselves as the God King. The knife that recorded the immortal technique also disappeared with the death of the descendants of the Fire Virtue God."

Wu Tong said, "That's a pity."

Just then, several masters from the Overseas Tongtian Pavilion came over, shaking their heads, "Supreme Holy Emperor, this is just the main city of the planet Yinghuo. Although there are some ancient divine powers and treasures, it is not the sacrificial site."

Luo Yujin frowned.

One of the Tongtian Pavilion masters hesitated for a moment, but still plucked up the courage to say, "Supreme Holy Emperor, this time on the skyship, I saw a few familiar faces around the master of the Inland Tongtian Pavilion."

Luo Yujin looked at him, "Familiar faces?"

The Tongtian Pavilion master bowed, "There is a capable person in the Inland Tongtian Pavilion named Yan Qingzhou, who is proficient in the Ashen language and Ashen script. There is also a mute named Shi Zhenbei, who is the eldest disciple of the former Pavilion Master Lou Ban, good at architecture and construction. There is also a woman named Yi Chaohua, who is good at calculating celestial phenomena..."

Luo Yujin's face changed slightly, and he suddenly burst into laughter, "Great treachery appears loyal, great treachery appears loyal! What a master of the Inland Tongtian Pavilion, playing tricks under my nose, almost fooled me too!"

Wu Tong was puzzled, "Master, what do you mean?"

Luo Yujin sneered, "He brought these masters from the Tongtian Pavilion, clearly with the same purpose as me, for the treasure of the sacrificial site of the planet Yinghuo! I just probed his thoughts and found nothing, showing how cunning this person is, even able to deceive me!"

He stood with his hands behind his back, speaking lightly, "There aren't many people who can deceive me. There are only two. He is one, and the other is the God Emperor of the Tongtian Pavilion."

Wu Tong was greatly impressed, "I knew he was cunning, a half-demon."

Jiao Shu'Ao was somewhat bewildered, thinking to himself, "Are you guys overthinking? I think the little ghost from Tianmen Town is quite honest..."
