Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons

Chapter 366: Chapter 364: Meeting Acquaintances Again

“`

With the help of the mystic vestment robe, Shen Yi had a clear grasp of the whereabouts of every living creature around him.

Apart from the minor demons who came out of curiosity to observe, the hidden figure of Thunderhoof Demon Emperor in the sky had already been fully exposed.

What puzzled him more was the fact that none of the Demon Emperors from the top ten caves had shown up.

Could they not move about that easily?

Shen Yi had a vague guess in his mind, but he did not relax his vigilance.

The previous surreptitious glance of the roe demon toward the sky was unlikely to be at Thunderhoof; perhaps that group of Great Demons had other means of surveillance as well.

This was somewhat unfortunate.

He had originally planned to seize this opportunity to slaughter these two demons together.

Shen Yi did not know what Thunderhoof had prepared for him, but a little thought made it clear that in the entire Nanyang Sect, the only forces capable of threatening the Demon Emperors from over ten caves were Wutong Mountain and Mysterious Light Cave.

Yet Thunderhoof was still so confident, even with the help of the two Roe Demon brothers.

That ruled out Mysterious Light Cave.

Today, he was likely to see a few familiar faces.

Shen Yi came to the Thousand Demon Cave not to hunt for treasures but certainly not to really slay human cultivators for these demons.

As long as the disciples from Wutong Mountain had some brains,

they should be able to guess upon seeing the Youwei Spear in his hand.

Either associate him with Great Qian or realize that even Shen Yi, with a ten-zhang Golden Body, could not protect his spear.

Whichever speculation it was, it should be enough for these people to leave of their own accord.

Therefore, Shen Yi was sitting atop the mountain so openly and unguardedly.

Of course… if someone like Nie Jun or another expert of his level came, then not being able to defend himself would be understandable. Having the vestment robe, survival should be no issue. To avoid any accidents, he had specially called Qinghua over.

Garrisoning one’s residence was a tedious and dull affair.

But this time, many demons were watching this place from a far distance, reluctant to leave for a long while.

After several incidents, the Golden Eyes Lion Emperor undoubtedly became the most talked-about demon within the Thousand Demon Cave.

All Great Demons were curious about the terrifying progress that this Lion Emperor had made.

Was it true as the rumors said, that even the Youwei Demon Emperor left the Thousand Demon Cave with his tail between his legs?

During such a wait,

three presences quietly approached this place.

“Senior brother, I have a feeling something isn’t right.”

Qingfeng Zhenren looked around. It was the first time, since his stealth entry into the Thousand Demon Cave, that he sensed such a huge number of watchers.

It felt as if demons lay hidden everywhere,

raising the hairs on one’s back for no apparent reason.

“Could your formation be malfunctioning?” Yu Chao’an asked with similar suspicion.

“…”

Tong Xin’chuan glanced at the two foolish junior disciples who insisted on following him and sighed as he withdrew his gaze.

He suddenly rose into the air and waved his hand to dismantle the hiding formation.

Was there even a need to ask when the truth was laid bare before their eyes?

With the jade slip in hand and a weird look on his face, Tong Xin’chuan looked forward to see on that towering peak, a Golden Eyes beast with slightly swaying mane sitting like a king, its oppressive gaze sweeping toward them.

It was clear that he had been discovered long ago.

Yet the other party did not take any action, his composure indicating that everything was under control.

“Is this really the Demon Emperor from the fortieth cave?”

Tong Xin’chuan’s brows twitched.

Yu Chao’an and Qingfeng also came to their senses and dispelled their own hiding formations.

“I told you, it has changed…”

Yu Chao’an took to the air, his expression growing increasingly solemn.

He hadn’t expected that the being they had been talking about would so coincidentally appear before them.

The majestic figure, combined with a disdainful demeanor, somehow made one unconsciously overlook the two even more famed Demon Emperors behind it.

“Is this a trap?”

Standing on a cloud, Qingfeng wore a doubtful expression.

If it was really to lure and kill Senior Brother Tong, why make it so obvious, as if afraid that others wouldn’t know of its presence here.

“`

Tong Xin’chuan remained silent for a long time, then said indifferently, “This counts as a provocation.”

A newly risen Demon Emperor wanted to use them as stepping stones for its ascent to power.

At that moment, he suddenly felt the breathing of the two disciples behind him halt at the same time.

Tong Xin’chuan looked back with a puzzled expression.

He saw both of them staring intently at a certain spot.

When he turned his head again, his gaze landed on the dark long spear in the lion’s grasp.

“That’s the kid’s Youwei Spear!” Qingfeng’s heart skipped a beat, and he couldn’t help exclaiming, “Has he run into trouble?”

Yu Chao’an and Tong Xin’chuan fell silent, their brows furrowing almost simultaneously.

They also remembered the young man they had seen the last time in the Thousand Demon Cave, who, with an exceedingly calm demeanor, had thrust the long spear into the head of the Crimson Heart Serpent Emperor.

“His grandma’s second uncle! These damnable beasts!”

Anger appeared on Qingfeng’s face, and he couldn’t resist rolling up his sleeves. Although the kid had been quite rude to him last time, he actually thought quite highly of Shen Yi.

A new, rising talent among cultivators had fallen into the hands of the Thousand Demon Cave like this.

“…”

Tong Xin’chuan took a deep breath.

If previously he had thought Yu Chao’an was exaggerating, now he was much more cautious in his heart.

The young man had fought alone against three Transcendent Spirit Middle Stage beings and had slain them with an overwhelming force.

Added to that was the six-zhang-tall Golden Body that had not yet taken action.

The two of them together should be no weaker than a Transcendent Spirit Late Stage cultivator, at least… the Youwei Demon Emperor without a tailbone definitely could not threaten his life.

And yet, he had fallen into the enemy’s hands.

Seeing this, it seemed the Golden Eyes Lion Emperor probably didn’t need Yu Chao’an’s help to capture Youwei.

“Even demons know to eliminate our human race’s geniuses in advance.”

Yu Chao’an’s lips curled in self-mockery, then his eyes revealed a murderous intent, “Good, in the Thousand Demon Cave, it should also be a being with great potential, one life in exchange for another.”

Tong Xin’chuan glanced at the Jade Slip in his hand, his eyes becoming sharper.

The next moment, three figures simultaneously burst forth without prior agreement!

The moment the Wutong Mountain cultivators revealed themselves.

The surrounding demons, many of whom were cautious, did not hesitate to leave.

Tong Xin’chuan, Yu Chao’an, Li Qingfeng.

Any one of them was a cultivator who had earned a formidable reputation in the Thousand Demon Cave, almost equivalent to the pinnacle of human cultivators.

Watching them for fun was most likely going to cost one’s life.

Even the Golden Wings Nine-Patterned Tiger behind the Bronze Mirror was slowly propping up its body, curious about what had drawn these precious seeds of Wutong Mountain to act all at once.

Only Thunderhoof Demon Emperor wore a smug smile.

It almost saw the comical figure of the lion fleeing in disarray.

Whether it could even escape was also uncertain.

“Lion Emperor…”

The Roe Demon swallowed, and subconsciously took two steps back.

Then he was grabbed by a companion.

The Chicken Demon looked up at the sky again, then let go of its grasp, whispering, “Lion Emperor, it’s time for you to give an explanation.”

In front of the three aggressive figures.

Shen Yi finally stood up and casually gripped the cold spear shaft.

The next moment, he stepped forward unhurriedly and said lightly, “You just need to take him down.”

The Chicken Demon followed his gaze, which landed on Qingfeng.

Puzzlement surged in its eyes.

As a Demon Emperor of the eighteen caves, it only needed to deal with a Transcendent Spirit Middle Stage cultivator?

“And the other two?” The Chicken Demon glanced sideways.

It saw the robust Lion Demon drawing out the Youwei Spear, its golden eyes filling with intense murderous intent, “They belong to me.”

As soon as the words fell, the two demons froze.

The Roe Demon looked on in astonishment, “Then, what about me?”

He saw a mocking curl at the corner of the lion’s lips, followed by its immediate disappearance from the spot.
