After getting the demon blood, Li An immediately returned to the restricted area of Xiling.
Along the way, Li An heard about the latest ban of the Dali Empire - any Jindan cultivator who breaks through to the Yuanying without permission will be directly killed by the Dali Empire!
As soon as the ban was issued, the world was in an uproar. Even though the Dali Empire was powerful, it was contemptuous of the world's sects.
Many sects expressed their opposition, and then they were quickly uprooted and directly destroyed!
Among them, there were even two powerful Yuanying families.
For a time, people in the world were silent.
The Zhendan cultivators who were about to break through to the Yuanying were even more worried and frightened, not knowing what to do.
Resisting the Dali Dynasty was a dead end, and it was impossible to pretend to obey and secretly break through. The movement of breaking through the Yuanying was often felt by the whole state, and it could not be concealed at all.
Moreover, the reason given by the Dali Empire also pointed directly at Li An: Li An should be in the Jindan realm now, and such evil thieves must not be allowed to enter the Yuanying realm.
...
"What a great Shangguan Shengxian!"
Li An couldn't help but sigh. Shangguan Shengxian's plan almost suffocated him.
According to Shangguan Xiaoxiao, as long as Li An entered the Nascent Soul Realm, he could almost be said to be free - at that time, his role in Shangguan Shengxian would be greatly reduced.
And Shangguan Shengxian's response was also very rough and direct.
No one is allowed to break through the Nascent Soul!
Now even if Li An was given the support of the best Nascent Soul Pill and spiritual veins, he really didn't dare to break through easily.
Because the fluctuations of the world when proving the Yuanying are extremely shocking, and they are often protracted and can't be ended in a few days. At that time, can Shangguan Shengxian be concealed?
Shangguan Shengxian has pushed him to a dead end.
"With your sister's cultivation, how many years can she live?"
Li An asked the last sentence with a fluke mentality.
"Two or three thousand years, not a problem."
Li An was directly desperate!
He is now in the late Jindan stage, more than 470 years old, and his life span is only 2,000 years.
He can live for another 1,500 years at most.
Damn, I can't survive!
This is the first time he has encountered an enemy that can't survive.
At this point, he has to fight with all his strength, and even needs to take the initiative to attack——
When escaping is useless, Li An is definitely not afraid to face it!
…
"Are you sure that the entrance to the Demon Emperor's Tomb is nearby?"
In front of the Yellow Spring Valley, Li An looked at the turbid river flowing out of the valley and asked.
"It's here."
Shangguan Xiaoxiao was sure.
"What a pity."
Li An sighed deeply. The Demon Emperor's Tomb was right in front of him. How many good things must this person who was famous in the spiritual world have in his tomb?
It's hard to imagine!
Unfortunately, Li An didn't even dare to touch it now.
Shangguan Shengxian stared at Xiling, waiting for the demons to discover the Demon Emperor's tomb so that she could find the entrance.
Li An and Shangguan Xiaoxiao want to open the Demon Emperor's tomb, which will inevitably cause a shock to the world - the Demon Emperor's tomb is hidden in the dimensional space, and the fluctuations when the space is intertwined are unimaginable.
Shangguan Shengxian will definitely be the first to kill him at that time.
Perhaps Li An and Shangguan Xiaoxiao have not even touched the Demon Emperor's coffin before they have died at the hands of Shangguan Shengxian.
The emperor's tomb cannot be dug in front of them, and the monsters are chasing behind.
Now, they can only make preparations and then lead Shangguan Shengxian here -
"The demon blood has been obtained, and the Yellow Spring Valley has also arrived. This is the fifth-grade soul medicine you want. There are only three in the entire demon clan."
In front of the Yellow Spring Valley in the Xiling restricted area, Li An opened up a cave, set up a magic circle to hide the breath, and then released Shangguan Xiaoxiao from the spiritual platform.
Li An handed her three spiritual medicines!
Heavenly Soul Flower, Earth Soul Stone, Heavenly Human Huangjing.
These three spiritual medicines made even Li An jealous. He had never seen such treasures in his two lives.
Even if a great cultivator of the Spiritualization Stage came, they would fight for it!
If Shangguan Shengxian hadn't pressed them too hard, neither Tan Qingxue nor Li An would have given this kind of thing to anyone else...
Now, Shangguan Xiaoxiao is the only hope.
Of course, Li An was not without preparations - after he got these three spiritual herbs from Tan Qingxue, he used the breath of the Life Seed and his own poison to nourish them for a long time.
After all, Shangguan Shengxian had ideas about the Demon Emperor's Tomb, so did Shangguan Xiaoxiao?
If she believed in her, would she sell Li An out?
Poisoning was a countermeasure for Li An!
Moreover, the toxin refined by the Life Seed, after being absorbed by her, could directly affect her Yuanling state, and Li An believed that even Shangguan Xiaoxiao would probably find it difficult to dissolve the poison blessed by the Life Seed.
"Although I don't know what you did, I can tell you that all this is unnecessary." Shangguan Xiaoxiao glanced at the three spiritual medicines calmly and said, "Leave the demon blood, and also bring the fifth-level good fortune jade. You go out and protect me!" Li An asked the demon clan for not only the fifth-level spiritual medicine, but also the fifth-level good fortune jade. Tan Qingxue was very generous and gave them all - obviously, Shangguan Shengxian's existence really scared her. If there is no way to get rid of Shangguan Shengxian, then no matter how many resources and treasures there are, they will be meaningless. ... Li An walked out of the cave, and while Shangguan Xiaoxiao was recovering his spiritual power, he carefully checked the terrain of Huangquan Valley. Huangquan Valley was named after a river that originated from the valley. The river water was turbid and yellow, like the legendary Huangquan in the underworld. According to legend, this place was once the ancestral land of a certain powerful force. The river in front of him was once a holy river with infinite spirituality, but later that powerful force collapsed and the spiritual river turned into a dead river.
The divine thoughts were released, and the hundreds of miles of area appeared in his mind.
Li An was in a heavy mood. No matter how he deduced, he felt desperate.
Hundreds of years ago, when Shangguan Shengxian was still a remnant soul, he could freeze the entire Tianyang City in a thought. That scene left a deep impression on Li An.
Now, no matter what preparations he made, it seemed to be just a trick. What's the use of the other party's thunder power?
He really wanted to escape from this place of right and wrong, and let Tan Qingxue and Shangguan Xiaoxiao deal with Shangguan Shengxian.
But it didn't work.
Shangguan Xiaoxiao only had a remnant soul left, and he still needed to rely on his body.
"If I can't hold on, and I'm defeated before the people from the spirit world arrive, I will fall into Shangguan Shengxian's hands and have no chance to escape. Even if the people from the spirit world come, whether they can kill or capture Shangguan Shengxian is another matter. Even if they kill Shangguan Shengxian, will they save me? They will probably kill me. After all, since those people hate the Demon Cult so much, how can they tolerate a natural demon body to survive?" "If I hold on, and the people from the spirit world drive Shangguan Shengxian away, I will also have two risks. The first is Shangguan Xiaoxiao. Will I still be able to control her at that time? Although I poisoned her Yuan Ling, she is the princess of the Demon Cult after all, and she is unfathomable. Second, the people from the spirit world will definitely investigate me carefully. How can I hide the secrets of the Life-Nourishing Immortal Art and the Immortal Heavenly Demon Art?" Li An thought about it and found that a series of problems were extremely difficult to deal with. The situation he is facing now can be said to be a struggle for survival from death. After thinking for a long time, he went out and quietly approached the army of Dali. He picked a lone foundation-building cultivator, kidnapped him, and refined him into a puppet.
-During this period of time, the demon clan and the army of Dali have been constantly rubbing against each other. There are no big battles, but small battles. It is normal for people to die. No one will notice the disappearance of a foundation-building cultivator.
Li An refined this puppet, and then used the Yuanling Honglu Gong in the magic skill for the first time!
Yuanling Honglu Gong can separate a wisp of Yuanling and inject it into the body of the puppet. If the main body dies, the Yuanling in the puppet can still survive with the help of the puppet body, which is equivalent to taking over a new life.
Li An is arranging his own funeral!
Make the worst plan. If he really dies in this war, then he can at least start over. With the Yangming Zhuxian Jue and the Immortal Heavenly Demon Art, he has the confidence to rise again!
It's just that the Jindan cultivation cultivated in this life, everything...
will be wasted.
He placed this puppet in a remote country far from the Xiling restricted area.
After returning to Huangquan Valley, he still set up a terrible mother-child killing array!
This killing array imitated the large array that Shangguan Xiaoxiao set up in the Tiansha Mountains. It used a fourth-level mother array as the main array and twenty sub-arrays as auxiliary arrays. It was carefully hidden under a cliff on the left side of Huangquan Valley. This was an escape route he chose.
These arrangements, facing the existence of Shangguan Xiaoxiao's level, may be futile and have no effect.
But even if he knew this, Li An still had to do it!
No matter when and where, you can't give up the will to survive, let alone the attitude of survival!
After thinking about it, it seems that this is all Li An can do.
Next, Li An fell into a short and long wait.
...
In the blink of an eye, ten days passed.
During these ten days, the demon race marched everywhere, and the conflict with the Dali Empire continued to intensify. Three major battles took place, and the Dali Empire was temporarily repelled.
However, it is said that the top forces of the human race, under the leadership of the White Tiger Empress, the emperor of the Dali Empire, have gathered their troops to come.
For example, the Tianjian Sect, the Nanli Sect, the Xueyuan Sect, etc.
Before, although the Dali Empire was powerful, the troops it controlled were limited. From the quality of the army alone, it was not necessarily a match for the demon race, but the high-level combat power was extremely strong.
Now, all the major forces of the human race have come, and masters of the True Dan and Yuanying levels have emerged in an endless stream. The demon race may soon be unable to resist.
It was on this day that Shangguan Xiaoxiao finally came out of retreat-
She walked out of the cave. Although she was only a Yuanling soul body, at first glance, she was almost exactly the same as a living person, her complexion was much rosy, and the power of the Yuanling was extremely amazing!
The three major spiritual medicines have all been taken and refined by her.
"Shenhua period?"
Li An asked.
"Almost." Shangguan Xiaoxiao said calmly: "Send the message to the Demon Queen, we can start now--" Li An nodded. ... Tan Qingxue, who had been waiting for a long time, summoned the demon kings and generals of the demon clan after receiving the news from Li An. "I have found the whereabouts of the Demon Emperor's Tomb." She spoke calmly, and all the demon clan members were instantly surprised. They did not know the existence of Shangguan Shengxian, so in their opinion, as long as the Demon Emperor's Tomb was found, the demon clan could restore its former glory, march across the world, and dominate the Emperor Realm! "Blue Dragon Demon King, you lead a million troops and take the initiative to attack at noon tomorrow. Your mission is to contain the Dali army and hold them back--"
"White Tiger Demon King, you lead 300,000 elite troops to leave the restricted area and attack the capital of Dali!"
"Vermillion Bird Demon King, lead 100,000 elite troops and follow me."
"In addition, General Long Lin and General Mu Rong, you lead 100,000 troops each and support the Blue Dragon Demon King at any time."
"General Ma Yuan, General Yan Feng, General Xuan Yuan, you each Lead an army of 500,000 to attack the places where the Dali Blood Yuan Sect and Taiyi Sect are located, and cover the actions of the White Tiger Demon King——"
The arrangements have been made, and she stood up, "Whether the glory of the demon race can be restored depends on this move. After this battle, all those who have made contributions will be given all the materials needed to break through the realm. In addition, all your spoils will belong to you——"
For a while, the big tent was full of murderous aura, and all the demon kings and demon generals stood up and roared loudly: "Kill!"
...
The next day.
"Kill!"
The shouts of killing shook the sky, and Qinglong, the strongest of the four demon kings of the demon race, led a million troops to attack the Dali army.
For a while, Dali was shocked and hurriedly organized resistance.
When the two armies met, a terrible battle broke out. The foundation cultivators filled the pit, the real Dan cultivators shed blood, and even the Yuanying masters were shaky in this level of battle.
"This is a full-scale attack by the demons!"
"Are they crazy..."
"They are coming in full force!"
In the central army tent of the Dali Empire, the masters of the major sects were all a little surprised.
The White Tiger Queen had just arrived a few days ago, and the war broke out!
"Report! Xuezhou was attacked, and hundreds of thousands of demon soldiers were found, attacking cities and seizing territories, unstoppable--"
"Report! The mountain gate of Taiyi Sect was besieged, and an urgent letter was sent for help--"
"Report! Demon soldiers were found in Dali territory--"
The war reports flew in like snowflakes, making everyone in the tent look extremely solemn.
"Is the war between humans and demons in the past about to happen again?"
"In the war in the past, seven great divine cultivators of our human race came out and surrounded and killed the Demon Emperor and the two great divine demon kings. As a result, although the demon disaster was barely suppressed, only one of the seven divine cultivators was left. I don't know how many other geniuses and sects were destroyed. The human cultivation world has withered for many years. Now, another war is coming. Disaster, disaster!"
"Who can quell the rebellion this time?"
Many people were discussing, and their eyes were all on the White Tiger Empress.
Now that Dali is in power, this kind of thing should naturally be done by the Dali Empire.
"Pass my order, face the enemy head-on, and attack the enemy army——"
"In addition, all the cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage from all the major sects, gather together."
The White Tiger Empress said calmly: "Everyone, the demon race must have found the Demon Emperor's tomb, so they took the initiative to attack. Cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage, be ready at any time, follow me to attack the Demon Emperor's tomb and seize the opportunity!"
For a moment, everyone in the field was shocked, and all were overjoyed.
"The Demon Emperor's Tomb!"
"This is the real place of opportunity. The ancestor of our sect died in his hands in the past. Many of our sect's treasures must be in his tomb!"
Although the Dali Empire's recent order not to break through the Nascent Soul stage privately has disgusted many major forces, and even secretly angry, at this time, driven by common interests, they immediately began to gather the masters of the sect without saying a word.
...
"Master, the demons are moving, rushing towards us fiercely, and even heading directly towards the capital."
Lingding Peak, this is a high peak in the Xiling restricted area.
The White Tiger Queen reported to the sickly girl.
The sickly girl said calmly: "Make a feint to the east and attack in the west."
"The Demon Emperor's Tomb should appear soon..."
She looked into the depths of the Xiling restricted area, "My dear sister, you also want to fight for the Emperor's Tomb... I am looking forward to your appearance."
...
Blood battle outside!
And at this moment.
In Huangquan Valley, the Demon Queen Jingchan, with She Anrong, She Anqi, Suzaku Demon King and other confidants, stepped into it step by step.
"I sensed it, it is indeed here."
Tan Qingxue's heart trembled slightly. She asked the demon army to search for a long time, but there was no clue. Li An actually knew it?
It seems that he has many secrets... This is quite normal. She was able to escape from Qingyang Market, and she was able to reach the True Dan realm step by step in these years. She helped her to attack Jingchan, and she even dared to plot against the Great Li Empire... How could Li An not have some opportunities and adventures?
She did not have the heart to investigate.
"Sacrifice, start——"
She spoke.
Immediately, everyone behind her stepped forward and began to perform the sacrifice.
When the unique grand sacrifice of the demon clan began, the power of demon blood and the demon clan's secret language resounded in the Yellow Spring Valley. For a moment, there seemed to be light and shadow interweaving in the Yellow Spring Valley, and a grand tomb slowly emerged from the void!
At that time, it was a stone tomb, with a huge demon python standing on each side to guard it. The stone tomb was indifferent, but it was suppressed at the starting point of a stone road. The end of the stone road was extremely deep, like another world.
"This is... the tomb of the Demon Emperor!"
"The statues on the left and right are the two most trusted demon generals of the Demon Emperor in the past. They followed the Demon Emperor here to protect the Demon Emperor's tomb-"
"Great!"
For a moment, the Vermillion Bird Demon King and others were all extremely excited.
"Kill--"
"Enemy attack!"
At this moment, outside the valley, there was a shout of killing.
Everyone looked back and saw a group of people rushing towards them from the sky. At a glance, there were about 3,000 people!
The Vermillion Bird King brought 100,000 elite soldiers to block the Yellow Spring Valley, but the 100,000 demon army could not stop the attack of these 3,000 people at this moment.
Because these 3,000 people...
All of them were at the Nascent Soul level!
--The temptation of the Demon Emperor's Tomb was too great. It not only contained the Demon Emperor's own opportunities, but also the relics of several other human beings who were killed by the Demon Emperor... Which force in the world would not be tempted by these things? Which Nascent Soul would not yearn for them?
So, the strong men from all the major forces...are very many!
Even though the Emperor Yuan Realm is so vast, the number of Nascent Souls will not exceed 4,000. Now 3,000 have come directly...It can be said that the Nascent Soul strong men from the five continents of the Emperor Yuan Realm are concentrated.
The 3,000 Nascent Souls are unstoppable, and the 100,000 elite demon army can't stop them at all. In the blink of an eye, the White Tiger Queen has stepped into the air and entered the Yellow Spring Valley.
She smiled calmly, with a royal demeanor, looked at Tan Qingxue, and said, "Empress Demon, Jingchan?"
...
