Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 232 – Eastern Capital's First Demon God

"Immortal Soar, isn't that the treasure left to Su Scholar by Confucius?"

Ying Ying had also heard Su Yun talk about the origin of Immortal Soar, and was a little puzzled when she heard Cen Bo's words.

Cen Bo meant that someone had left a seal inside Immortal Soar, and another person had broken the seal and left their own seal inside Immortal Soar.

Now, Cen Bo had broken the seal left by that person.

Immortal Soar now had no seal.

But who left the seal, and who was the first person to break the seal?

"Su Scholar has really many secrets on him and around him."

Ying Ying shook her head. At this moment, she saw the Thunderous Bell rising slowly, and she became nervous again. After a while, when the Thunderous Bell had completely risen, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She saw that the nine heads of Xiang Liu were tied up tightly, and the nine heads were stuck together and couldn't move.

The nine necks were still struggling, trying to break Immortal Soar, but after all, this was the treasure of Confucius. How could it be broken in a short time?

The Clear Void Sword and the Thunderous Bell were still attacking Xiang Liu, trying to refine this demon god, attracted by the demonic energy.

The Thunderous Bell's Buddhist sound was magnificent, and the Buddha's light was misty. It flew around Xiang Liu's nine heads, while the Clear Void Sword kept cutting off the large and dense scales on Xiang Liu's neck. However, those scales kept growing back endlessly, and the Clear Void Sword couldn't cut off Xiang Liu's neck.

Ying Ying was shocked and secretly worried, "I can only wait for Su Scholar to wake up and send this demon god back. But when Su Scholar wakes up, Xiang Liu's spiritual nature will also erupt..."

"Little girl, we see you!"

One of Xiang Liu's heads shouted, "Little ghost, I'll spray you to death with my poison!"

Another head shouted, "Don't spray her to death, I haven't had a turn yet."

"Little girls are the easiest to deceive. Let's deceive her into helping us break through the Rune Wall..."

"I still want to eat her body."

"She's a book!"

"I want to eat books too..."

"...You can't escape. When the stinky boy wakes up, I can take you down!"

...

Ying Ying secretly worried, then suddenly caught sight of the Heavenly Order, her eyes lit up, and she had an idea. She immediately urged the Heavenly Order, and the door of the Heavenly Order slowly appeared.

The heads of Xiang Liu saw this and shouted, "Little girl, where are you going?"

"Lick me!"

Ying Ying ignored them and pushed open the door of the Heavenly Order with great effort. After hesitating for a moment, she walked in.

"Just find a familiar scholar, like Fat Ye Luo, or Bai Yuelou, Bu Qiurong and others, and send me out to reality. I can then find the people of the Dao Sect and the Buddha Sect and let them come to suppress Xiang Liu!"Ying Ying flew around in the Tian Dao Yuan, searching for acquaintances of Su Yun. She thought to herself, "Dao Saint and Holy Buddha went to the Tian Men Zhen in Tian Shi Yuan to find the seal of the 96 gods and demons in Su Shi Zi's sealed memories. They should have returned by now."

However, she did not know that Holy Buddha and Dao Saint had indeed returned from Tian Shi Yuan, but they were still on their way and heavily injured.

Today was the day of the big exam, and there were few students in the Tian Dao Yuan, and these students were usually not in the capital at this time.

Ying Ying was secretly anxious, "If Mr. Shui Jing were here..."

Just then, she heard a voice saying, "You are...the book monster of the Wen Yuan Ge in Tian Dao Yuan? Your name is Ying Ying?"

Ying Ying was startled and looked over to see a young man standing nearby, who was Di Ping.

"Your Majesty."

Ying Ying flew over to pay her respects, thinking to herself, "I wonder if the emperor is willing to take me out? If he locks me up in the Wen Yuan Ge of Tian Dao Yuan..."

Soon, Di Ping's spirit returned to his body, and Ying Ying flew out of his spirit realm and came to the imperial palace, flying around the Yong Rong Hall and examining its layout.

Di Ping stood up and said calmly, "This is where I recuperate, and few people come here. Even my courtiers cannot enter. You are the book monster of my Tian Dao Yuan and have been accompanying Su Shi Zi for these days. You must know many secrets, right?"

Ying Ying was shocked and smiled, "Does Your Majesty want to know what secrets?"

Di Ping walked out and said, "The secret of the Taotie."

Ying Ying was shocked again and fluttered her paper wings to keep up with him. She heard Di Ping's voice from ahead, "The Taotie rampaged in the capital, almost devouring hundreds of thousands of people. Dao Saint and Holy Buddha worked together to stop it and suppress it. This event was widely praised by the people, extolling the immeasurable merits of the two ancient myths. But I don't believe it at all!"

Ying Ying flew to his side and saw that they had come to the edge of the cliff at the top of Yu Huang Mountain. Below was a steep cliff, and from here, the layers of the capital looked like a piece of Lingzhi, surrounding Yu Huang Mountain.

The largest city at the bottom of the capital was square and had well-connected roads.

Di Ping stood here, with the world at his feet, but he had no joy on his face, but rather some gloominess. "The common people will never ask where the Taotie came from. They only know how to extol the achievements of the two saints, but I know that the last time a god or demon appeared in Yuan Shuo Country was 150 years ago. This time, the situation is even bigger than the fall of the dragon! But the fools are not curious about the origin of this demon god Taotie. I am curious!"

He turned around and looked at the book monster Ying Ying. "The chief clerk of Xian Liang Yuan has informed me about Dao Saint and Holy Buddha's visit to Su Shi Zi. When the two saints visited Su Shi Zi, the Taotie erupted. They subdued the Taotie and returned to Su Shi Zi's residence. There must be some connection between them."Ying Ying was even more surprised. Di Ping was too smart. She wondered if he could guess the truth behind it.

"Tao Tie is a god and demon on the Chao Tian Que. Su scholar can transform into Tao Tie, but if it was Tao Tie transformed by Su scholar, it wouldn't have hurt Dao Saint and Holy Buddha."

Di Ping finally smiled and said, "Yes, I see that Dao Saint and Holy Buddha are injured and their injuries are not light. Only a true demon god Tao Tie could inflict such injuries on the two great saints even when they used their spiritual treasures. I'm very curious, where did this Tao Tie come from? Ying Ying, you have been following Su scholar, please tell me."

Ying Ying's scalp was numb. She was like a tiger's companion. As long as there were few areas where she didn't respond as well as Di Ping, she would immediately face death!

But if she told Di Ping about Tao Tie sealed in Su Yun's memory, Di Ping's intelligence would immediately lead him to guess that the ninety-six gods and demons were all sealed in Su Yun's memory by Qu Jin Qu Tai Chang and others!

Judging by Di Ping's desire for longevity, Su Yun would probably become a tool for Di Ping to use for longevity at that time!

At that time, Di Ping would no longer be restrained by Qiu Shuijing or Xue Qingfu. He would have no more scruples and act recklessly!

Di Ping looked at her, and Ying Ying felt more and more pressure. That was the imperial might of the emperor. She was not Su Yun and could not ignore the imperial might. She was just a book monster.

The imperial might emanating from Di Ping made her Dao heart almost collapse and her faith almost disintegrate.

Suddenly, a voice came, "Your Majesty, Qiu Yushi is seeking an audience."

Di Ping's mind moved slightly, and Ying Ying suddenly saw a vast and extremely oppressive space around her when she opened her eyes. Five huge gods stood tall in the five directions of this world!

"The five emperors of Yuan Shuo, this is Di Ping's spirit realm. He was afraid that Mr. Shuijing would take me away after seeing me, so he locked me up."

Ying Ying was secretly anxious. At this moment, she was completely helpless, not knowing how to escape from Di Ping's spirit realm.

The five emperors were the five greatest emperors in Yuan Shuo's history, and their images appeared in Di Ping's spirit realm. It should be the magical power formed by the Five Emperors' Mixed Yuan Gong.

However, strangely, these five emperors were shrouded in deep black qi, with extremely demonic natures.

What was even more frightening was that their bodies were also filled with demonic energy, not radiant divine light!

At this moment, the space in front of Ying Ying suddenly cracked open, and a sharp rhinoceros horn pierced through Di Ping's spirit realm. The next moment, a white spirit rhinoceros poked its head in, looked around, and sneaked into Di Ping's spirit realm.

Ying Ying was stunned.

That spirit rhinoceros was the white rhinoceros she and Su Yun had found, usually kept in the spirit realm of the human and demon Wu Tong!

How could this spirit rhinoceros run into Di Ping's spirit realm?What puzzled her even more was that it was daytime and people were not yet asleep. The various spiritual realms did not interact with each other until people fell asleep at night, when the Lingxi would run around in people's dreams, searching for the demons that disturbed them.

"The Lingxi can enter people's spiritual realms during the day, which is naturally my doing."

At this moment, a woman in red walked silently, barefoot, and entered Di Ping's spiritual realm. She said lightly, "With me here, I followed the demon nature and found Di Ping's spiritual realm. The Lingxi cannot approach Di Ping, but I can. I can approach Di Ping, but I cannot enter his spiritual realm to absorb his boundless demon nature, while the Lingxi can."

Ying Ying's expression was strange. She never expected that the Lingxi and demons, two extreme creatures, would form a strange symbiotic relationship.

"Come up."

Wu Tong's red sleeves fluttered, and Ying Ying hesitated for a moment before grabbing onto the sleeves.

With a wave of the sleeves, she landed on the back of the Lingxi. The Lingxi was affectionate towards her and did not reject her.

The young Wu Tong sat behind her, took out a gourd, and absorbed the demon energy from Di Ping's spiritual realm, absorbing his demon nature.

"Your Majesty, I have received news that there has been a major upheaval in the Heavenly Market Enclosure."

Qiu Shuijing's voice entered this spiritual realm and said, "In this upheaval, Dao Saint, Holy Buddha, Wen Prime Minister, and Xue Saint all suffered heavy injuries. Your Majesty, this is a great opportunity for us to implement the new law. There is not much resistance to implementing the new law at this time!"

As soon as Qiu Shuijing's words fell, Ying Ying immediately saw that the demon nature and demon energy in Di Ping's spiritual realm increased at a visible speed. The Five Emperors were shrouded in rolling black smoke, like towering and unparalleled demons!

She looked at this scene in horror, but saw the eyes of the Five Emperors slowly opening.

"Quickly, let's go!" Wu Tong's face changed slightly, and she immediately jumped onto the Lingxi. The Lingxi immediately touched its horns and broke through Di Ping's spiritual realm, rushing outwards.

"This is a great opportunity!"

Di Ping's voice came, laughing, "Mr. Qiu, besides Wen Prime Minister, we must kill Holy Buddha, destroy Dao Saint, and imprison Qingfu. This is what we must do! My eternal life will no longer be hindered..."
