Chapter 7: Conspiracy

"What is Sky Demons Smokey Face? That human face is catching up!"

Fang Han lay flat on Fairy He's back, looking out through the gaps in the feathers, only to find that the hideous human face formed by the black smoke was relentlessly pursuing them. It opened its wide mouth, revealing rows of sharp teeth, and even emitted faint demonic laughter in the wind.

The wind in the sky and the intense airflow should have easily dispersed a person, let alone smoke.

However, this smoke remained intact, as if it were a real demon, causing Fang Han to be deeply frightened.

Although Fang Han was very knowledgeable, he had never before seen such a bizarre and dangerous scene. His heart was shaken, and his anxiety rose to his throat.

"Sky Demons Smokey Face is a magical treasure made of poisonous smoke, a spiritual tool! It's extremely powerful. Only the most outstanding Inner Sect Disciples of the Devil God Sect are granted such treasures. If we were to be enveloped by this smoke, we would be reduced to pus and blood. The Azure Rainbow Qi Talisman of the Feather Transformation can only counteract this poison. Unfortunately, only outstanding Inner Sect Disciples possess the Azure Rainbow Qi Talisman,"

Fairy He soared through the sky, with the smokey face fiercely pursuing her. In an instant, they had covered hundreds of miles.

"What is the Devil God Sect?"

Seeing Fairy He continue to outpace the smokey face, Fang Han's heart slightly calmed, and he hurriedly asked.

"The Devil God Sect is a major sect of the Devil Path, on par with the Yuhua Sect. Their leader, the Devil God, cultivated divine skills and practiced the path to immortality long ago, stepping into the Longevity Secret Realm. He transformed his flesh and blood into a human form, possessing immeasurable divine skills. He stands side by side with the Demon Emperor, known as the Devil God!"

Fairy He screamed and flew wildly, her life at stake: "The Devil Path, Devil Path, and Immortal Path have been at peace for years. In theory, the members of the Devil God Sect shouldn't be anywhere near Yuhua Mountain."

Some animals, due to their strong physical bodies, occasionally consume exotic immortal herbs in the mountains, increasing their strength and developing their divine skills. Such animals are called "devils"!

After all, a human's flesh is weaker than that of some animals.

However, few devil creatures can break through the Mystical Realm and step into the legendary Longevity Secret Realm. Once they reach the Longevity Secret Realm, they can change their physical form at will, regenerate through blood, and transform into humans.

With such divine skills, those creatures have immeasurable powers and can establish their sects and become gods and ancestors, on par with the Sect Leaders of the Immortal Path.

Ohhhhhhhhhhh...

At this moment, danger suddenly struck.

The hideous human face, formed by the smoke, emitted a sharp scream and suddenly accelerated, lunging towards them.

"This is bad! We're going to die!"

Fairy He, like a little girl, screamed loudly, trembling in fear.

Fang Han also felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, followed by an extremely foul and pungent smell that invaded his five viscera and six hollow organs. The intense poison seemed to melt his body.

The hideous human face formed by the black smoke was about to bite down on him and the Immortal Crane.

"I've been poisoned, and my whole body is turning into a pus and blood!" Only this thought remained in Fang Han's mind.

But then, he felt his heart suddenly heat up, as if the poison of the Sky Demons Smokey Face had stimulated the Nine Orifice Golden Pill. The Nine Orifice Golden Pill whirled rapidly, releasing a fragrant aroma that quickly dispersed the poisonous smoke.

Soon after, he felt the Jiao Fu Huangquan Map hidden in his clothes move slightly, emitting a powerful suction like a whirlpool.

The surrounding black smoke disappeared instantly, all of it entering Fang Han's body through the Jiao Fu Huangquan Map.

The sky cleared up, and the fresh air entered their nostrils. The pungent smell vanished completely. Fairy He also seemed to have regained her ability to move, stretching her wings suddenly and soaring back up into the sky, quickly flying towards Yuhua Mountain.

"What happened? We were about to die just now, but the Sky Demons Smokey Face suddenly disappeared?"

Seeing Purple Lightning Peak in the distance, they knew that they were safe this time. Even the mysterious Devil God of the Devil God Sect wouldn't dare to come to Yuhua Sect's mountain to kill.

Fairy He cried out in surprise, not understanding why the black smoke had disappeared upon contact with her.

Only Fang Han had a vague idea in his heart that the Jiao Fu Huangquan Map might have played a role. He wondered what other effects the mysterious painting had.

But of course, he could not tell Fairy He about this.

"I don't know why either. Perhaps we were just lucky, and that person recalled the smoke, fearing that the people of Yuhua Immortal Mountain would discover it," Fang Han feigned ignorance.

Fortunately, Fairy He's wisdom was comparable to that of an eight or nine-year-old girl, making her easy to deceive.

"Maybe so. We've escaped a disaster. That was really close!" Fairy He hovered and landed halfway up Purple Lightning Peak. She and Fang Han rested for a long time before they calmed down.

"Fang Han, I'm tired today. I need to go back and rest." Fairy He yawned, patting her long neck with her wing, causing He Yan to flow out once more.

"Alright, it's probably dangerous out there, so you should tell the other Immortal Cranes not to leave Yuhua Mountain anymore."

Fang Han nodded and watched Fairy He go to rest. He then secretly hid in his room to check if the Jiao Fu Huangquan Map had undergone any changes...

Meanwhile, just outside of Yuhua Immortal Mountain at the location where the "Sky Demons Smokey Face" had surged just now, the pillar of smoke slowly descended.
