Chapter 345: Reversing the Heavenly Array
Chapter 345: Reversing the Heavenly Array
Upon hearing this, the two Demon Sovereigns reacted differently.
They had not transformed into human forms.
Instead, they were a black bear and a silver-gray monkey, both hunched over.
The black bear took a step back, unable to retreat any further.
The monkey furrowed its brows, revealing a hint of dissatisfaction in its eyes, "Why are you speaking so rudely? I haven't provoked you, and today, it's by the order of the Thunder Hoof Demon Sovereign. I don't care about your grudge with Mountain Man, just follow me quickly."
At these words, Shen Yi slowly rose from his throne, "It's certain that it can't come."
Hearing this indifferent tone, the monkey finally raised its head and looked straight at the majestic lion. As it gazed upon the lion's body covered in scars, its eyes gradually became uncertain.
Earlier, it had heard that this foolish lion had gone to kill a cultivator but never returned.
It was assumed that it had died outside.
But now it seemed that the lion had returned alive, while Mountain Man was nowhere to be seen.
Could it be that its previous words were true? After a moment of thought, the monkey smiled, "No wonder you dare to speak to me like this. You must have obtained some opportunity to soar to the heavens. I wonder if the Thunder Hoof Demon Sovereign can still meet your standards."
After speaking, it slightly raised its hand, "Please?"
"Heh."
The lion slightly lowered its head and let out a cold laugh, then slowly exited the Immortal Mansion.
The other two demons exchanged glances, their faces darkening, and followed closely behind.
The black bear was the Demon Sovereign of the forty-eighth cave, one of the lowest-ranked ones. It had never dared to speak up in front of the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign, and only had a better relationship with Mountain Man. Now, upon suddenly hearing the news of Mountain Man's death, it felt a bit depressed.
However, Mountain Man was too ruthless and didn't care about relationships. It had bad luck and deserved to die.
But the monkey was different. It was a powerful demon with cultivation similar to Mountain Man, and it was clear that it didn't know the true strength of the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign. For now, it suppressed its anger.
"..."
Shen Yi listened to the footsteps behind him, feeling a tingling sensation in his heart.
He did like the longevity of demons.
But this trip wasn't just about longevity. Ever since obtaining the Body Transformation Pill Formula, he had developed a greater interest in the cultivators' Immortal Mansions within the Thousand Demons Cave.
Demons could be killed at any time, but information about the Nanyang Sect was limited to these few sources.
Exposing himself too early wasn't a good idea.
It would be best to climb up step by step and become the true core of the Thousand Demons Cave, to see how much wealth they had accumulated after occupying this place.
Cultivators' treasures in the hands of demons were a waste; only when they were in his hands could they be fully utilized.
...
The three powerful demons walked with agile strides, silent all the way.
They reached a cliff, below which was a depression with a dense lake of thunder slurry shimmering like a lake.
As if sensing the approaching demons, the lake of thunder slurry emitted a deep, muffled hum, "It's the same Immortal Mansion from four hundred years ago, slaughter them."
"..."
Shen Yi felt the dense aura, and the Golden Thunder White Jade within him stirred restlessly.
Such a peculiar place, if used for cultivation, would result in an astonishingly rapid progress in cultivation.
No wonder the cultivators outside were so desperate to break in.
"Understood."
The silver-gray monkey nodded towards the lake of thunder slurry.
Blocking cultivators from exploring Immortal Mansions was the only strict rule in the Thousand Demons Cave, and even the top ten cave's Demon Sovereigns couldn't disobey it.
The three demons turned to leave.
Just then, the lake suddenly parted, and a strange head emerged from the thunderous waves. It resembled a sheep with a single horn on its head and four eyes on its face, all of which were dark green.
It stared at the retreating backs of the demons, its voice calm as it asked, "Where's Mountain Man?"
At this, Black Bear halted in its tracks, while Silver-gray Monkey grinned strangely, both turning their gazes towards the robust lion.
Shen Yi could feel the chilling gaze from behind.
For a moment, even his body stiffened.
The last time he felt such a dense oppression was from Youwei Demon Sovereign.
"You were pretty arrogant just now."
Silver-gray Monkey lowered its head and lightly rubbed its nose with its thumb.
Just then, it noticed the lion slowly turning around, its golden eyes calmly fixed on the strange skull on the lake's surface. The lion's voice was hoarse as it spoke, "I killed him."
Without a hint of explanation, it directly admitted to the act.
Upon hearing this, even Gray Bear couldn't help but shudder, instinctively moving away from the towering figure, fearing that his anger might be misdirected.
Silver-gray Monkey's hand froze in mid-air, "...”
It was hard to imagine that this was once that stupid lion.
Thunder Hoof Demon Sovereign's four dark green eyes stared intently at Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign, noticing that the latter's expression remained calm and unperturbed. After a long while, it finally turned back and submerged itself in the thunder slurry, leaving behind a slightly stern statement.
"Don't mess things up."
"..."
Shen Yi withdrew his gaze and continued walking towards the distant light curtain.
He realized that he had quickly adapted to dealing with demons.
If he wanted to rise, he couldn't rely on the lion's original temperament.
Fortunately, there was that pig demon.
After personally witnessing the lion's harem being occupied, it was normal for his temperament to change slightly.
"Damn, you're letting it off so easily." Silver-gray Monkey reluctantly followed behind.
For demons, guarding an immortal mansion was a tough task.
They struggled to break the array formations inside, and even if they did, they weren't very interested unless it was a treasure or cultivation technique, rather than a magical treasure.
The only benefit was the chance to encounter a pile of human treasure pills delivered right to their doorsteps, slightly changing the monotony.
But such good fortune wasn't common.
After all, most of the time, even when they knew an immortal mansion was open, no one dared to approach.
And if they did, they might encounter genuine powerful cultivators.
Thinking of this, Silver-gray Monkey glanced at the figure in front of him. It wasn't targeting the lion for no reason; it was the lion's attitude today that made it feel threatened.
The caves in Thousand Demons Cave were not arranged haphazardly.
The closer to the front, the richer the heavenly energy, and the larger the territory.
Regardless of how it killed Mountain Man, it had the same opportunity to kill him.
This was a perfect chance to test the lion's abilities.
With this in mind, Silver-backed Monkey took a deep breath and looked towards the distant light curtain, shimmering like ripples on water.
It seemed slightly tense.
Based on their judgment, this immortal mansion, which opened once every four hundred years, should belong to an overseer of Nanyang Sect.
Such an immortal mansion would undoubtedly attract powerful cultivators.
That's why multiple demon sovereigns were needed to handle it.
"..."
Shen Yi also stared at the light curtain.
With the identity of a demon sovereign, he could freely explore such places.
Although Qinghua wasn't by his side, with Azure Deer Ancestor's assistance, it was barely sufficient.
Just then, Black Bear's ears twitched, "It seems they arrived right on time."
It focused its gaze downwards.
About four or five figures were using various methods, their faces tense as they approached the light curtain.
