Chapter 1727 - 1726: Demonic Traces
Chapter 1727 - 1726: Demonic Traces
"Phew! The air outside is still so much better." Zhang Xiaohao took a deep breath of fresh air.
"Indeed! Being trapped in that place for a hundred years is unbearable for anyone, but at least we got out." Zha Muzhen sighed.
"Stop complaining, let’s go!" Zhang Xiaohao called out.
He then led Zha Muzhen forward.
After Zhang Xiaohao broke through to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, even his Reincarnation Heavenly Eye’s power increased significantly, at least threefold. Within a radius of three thousand meters, any slight disturbance couldn’t escape his sight.
The two avoided the surrounding dangers and moved forward.
After about half a day, Zhang Xiaohao stopped.
"Sir, what’s wrong?" Seeing Zhang Xiaohao stop, Zha Muzhen asked in confusion.
"Don’t you feel that something strange is in the air? There’s actually a sense of death in it!" Zhang Xiaohao said, frowning.
"Hmm? Now that you mention it, I seem to feel it too." Zha Muzhen said with a serious expression.
Right after speaking, a flash of insight crossed Zha Muzhen’s mind.
"Sir, this is Demonic Qi! Could it be that people from the Demon Realm have already arrived here?"
"You’re right! It is indeed Demonic Qi. According to my estimation, people from the Demon Realm should be nearby! Look around, although there are no obvious signs of movement, the deeper you go, the more concentrated the Demonic Qi in the air becomes! While this Qi might not be very apparent to other cultivators, for those like us who have mastered the Space Law, it is very obvious." Zhang Xiaohao said seriously.
"Sir, should we continue deeper in?" Zha Muzhen asked.
"Why not continue? Just because they’re from the Demon Realm, should we be afraid? Besides, with our current strength, even if we encounter a cultivator of the Unification Realm, they won’t be able to detain us if we want to leave." Zhang Xiaohao replied.
"You’re right, sir. With your Power of Time and my Space Law Silk, if we want to leave, no one will be able to stop us." Zha Muzhen nodded.
"Let’s go! Put on the black robe and don’t reveal our identities." Zhang Xiaohao reminded.
With a flip of his palm, he took a black robe from the storage bag at his waist, the same one Hei Wuchang had given him before. He put it on and, together with Zha Muzhen, concealed their aura as they cautiously proceeded.
With the protection of the Space Law, the aura of Zhang Xiaohao and Zha Muzhen blended completely with the surrounding space. Even a Great Mahayana Realm creature using Divine Thought at full power couldn’t sense their presence.
After advancing about a hundred kilometers, Zhang Xiaohao and Zha Muzhen stopped again.
The Demonic Qi lingering in the air had changed from faint to extremely dense, so much so that even other cultivators could sense it, let alone Zhang Xiaohao and Zha Muzhen, who were adept in the Space Law.
"Sir, do you hear the massive waves emanating from beneath the ground ahead? Though they conceal it well, in front of us, the spatial waves cannot hide." Zha Muzhen said.
"Hmm! It seems they’re hiding beneath that withered black tree up ahead. Let’s go over!" Zhang Xiaohao called out.
He then pinched his fingers into a sign, mobilizing the Three-color Law Seed in his spiritual sea, and cast the Reincarnation Law. A thick white mist shot out from his body, enveloping both him and Zha Muzhen.
Under the shroud of the Reincarnation Law, the aura of Zhang Xiaohao and Zha Muzhen completely vanished, even spatial disturbances couldn’t leak out.
"Let’s proceed!" Zhang Xiaohao said.
As they moved forward, the surrounding Demonic Qi became increasingly dense. Anyone else would have been noticed under this overwhelming Demonic Qi, but under the Reincarnation Law, not even demons from the Demon Realm could detect Zhang Xiaohao’s trail.
After a while, Zhang Xiaohao and Zha Muzhen reached the withered black tree.
"Sir, judging by the spatial waves around here, it must be beneath." Zha Muzhen said.
"Yes, I’ve felt it. Let’s go." Zhang Xiaohao communicated through Divine Thought.
"But sir, there’s a restriction down there. If we enter like this, they will detect us." Zha Muzhen said worriedly.
"You’re underestimating the Reincarnation Law. It’s the most mysterious among the Three Supreme Laws and the hardest to comprehend! If it were easily detected, how could it be called the most mysterious among the Three Supreme Laws?" Zhang Xiaohao smiled mysteriously.
As his hand signs changed, he let out a low growl, "Reincarnation!!!"
With Zhang Xiaohao’s words, something unbelievable happened. A mysterious force enveloped them, and under the Reincarnation Law, their bodies swiftly transformed into two masses of Demonic Qi.
"Let’s go down!" Zhang Xiaohao called out.
The two masses of Demonic Qi then maneuvered into the black withered tree upfront, bypassing all restrictions without any hindrance.
A vast underground space, as large as hundreds of basketball courts, lay beneath. In the middle of the plaza stood a gigantic Ancient Demon statue, with two demonic horns on its head, Three Heads and Six Arms. Its immense pressure emanated from within the statue.
The surrounding space was filled with boundless Demonic Qi, so dense it formed an ocean of liquid.
Such an immense ocean of Demonic Qi posed a deadly threat even to Mahayana Realm cultivators, but for Demon Cultivators, it was a great boon.
Besides all this, a young woman in a black short skirt, with a black veil over her face and a black Spiritual Official hairpin, was there. Behind her knelt over a hundred Unification Realm experts and more than thirty Great Mahayana Realm creatures, each kneeling on the ground, reciting some Demon Scripture. The veiled woman, barefoot, was moving towards the colossal and peculiar statue.
"It’s actually her!!!" Upon seeing the scene, Zhang Xiaohao was stunned.
The woman in front of him was none other than the Demon Path woman he met outside Flame Mountain in Nanhua City back on Earth.
