Chapter 1685: The Escape Plan, Surrounded by Demons – Part 2 Chapter 1685: The Escape Plan, Surrounded by Demons – Part 2 Editor: Henyee Translations “Damn it!
Why is there still no news?
Could it be that they've sprouted wings and flown away?!” This news undoubtedly infuriated the high-ranking members of the Desolate Blood Gate.
In a city lord's mansion within an Immortal City, a Demon Lord slammed his fist onto the table, shouting in anger.
At this point, it had been a full month since the entire Desolate Blood Gate had mobilized to capture Jiang Chengxuan and his group, yet they still had no results.
The three highest-ranking Grand Elders of the Desolate Blood Gate had gathered at the city lord's mansion by now.
“It's impossible that no one encountered them.
The entire Desolate Blood Gate territory has been turned upside down.
They must have used some kind of trick!” An older and more experienced Demon Lord quickly realized the issue.
Their many demon cultivators were like wild grass, scattered across the wildernessaEUR”how could they all have been avoided?
Not even one demon cultivator was killed.
Even a Golden Immortal could not achieve such a thing.
The only possibility, it seemed, was that someone had encountered them but had not reported it!
“Could there be a traitor among us?
But how could my demon disciples ever trust those righteous people?” In the heavy atmosphere, Beast Cang Mozun's sharp eyes narrowed in thought, clearly puzzled.
“Forget about that!
Have the Demon Sect elders thoroughly investigate their subordinates, and anyone with suspicious behavior, bring them to me immediately!” With this command, the truth was soon revealed.
As the investigation began, within just one day, many suspicious demon cultivators were brought into the city lord's mansion.
And they were all sluggish and lifeless, like puppets with no will of their own!
“Such methods!
A bunch of fools, and they still haven't discovered anything!” Immediately, the three Grand Elders of the Desolate Blood Gate nearly burst with rage, their eyes bloodshot and furious.
They never imagined that the enemy would have such methods to directly turn cultivators into puppets with weak consciousness.
“What should we do now?
The search method is useless, and they have likely already escaped to who knows where!” After a moment of silence, one of the Grand Elders spoke in a deep voice, unable to hide his anger.
This statement made the atmosphere even colder, and the many demon cultivators present were covered in cold sweat, too afraid to speak.
The Desolate Blood Gate had been invaded, their captives rescued, two of their elders slain, and yet the enemies had left as though the place was uninhabited.
They couldn't fathom what kind of blow this would be to the reputation of the Desolate Blood Gate if the news spread.
For a time, they would likely become a laughingstock in the neighboring territories.
Especially now, with their Golden Immortal ancestor absent from the sect.
“Hmph!
Now that the method has been exposed, do you think we still can't find them?” At this moment, the eldest of the three Grand Elders slowly spoke, his old, withered face flashing with a gleam in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, the other Grand Elders turned their gazes toward him, somewhat uncertain.
The old elder did not keep them in suspense.
He explained his idea clearly: “Since these people have been controlled, they must have been working for the ones who rescued them.” “We should go the opposite way and investigate the recent locations these puppets visited.
That way, we can deduce the escape route of the ones who escaped!” As soon as he finished speaking, the demon cultivators in the room were immediately enlightened, as if waking from a dream.
The other two Grand Elders also brightened, realizing the significance of the clue.
This was actually the very flaw Jiang Chengxuan had been most concerned about, and it was the very method he had feared would eventually surface.
“Quick!
Hurry up and check!
No, directly soul-search them!” Without hesitation, Beast Cang Mozun immediately gave the order.
His eyes flashed coldly, and his demonic energy surged, skyrocketing!
In front of all the demon cultivators, he swung his hand, and an astonishing wave of demonic energy transformed into a flash of cold light that quickly filled the entire area.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
In an instant, the demon cultivators who had been turned into puppets by Jiang Chengxuan were blown apart on the spot, turning into sprays of blood.
The entire city lord's mansion was soon filled with a hazy blood mist, the scent of blood filling the air.
Within the mist, the primordial spirits of the demons were revealed, floating in the void.
They were pierced by a golden arrow and two black-and-white hairpinsaEUR”clearly, Jiang Chengxuan's handiwork.
“Break them!” As Beast Cang Mozun's eyes gleamed with a deadly light, a piercing blood-red light shot out from them.
Like an invisible sword of light, it swept through the consciousness left by the demon cultivators turned into puppets.
This was a soul-attack technique he mastered, able to probe everything and destroy the enemy's consciousness.
Boom!
Under the sweep of the blood light, the hazy light clusters trembled, and the golden arrow was severed, exploding.
Following that, images began to appear in the void, showing the paths that these demon cultivators had previously traveled.
This scene made all the demon cultivators in the room hold their breath and focus intensely on the images.
Thus, the escape route of Jiang Chengxuan and his group, based on the paths explored by these puppets, was gradually pieced together.
“We found it!
Desolate Blood Gate disciples, listen up!
Do whatever it takes to kill this person!” Once Beast Cang Mozun confirmed Jiang Chengxuan's current location, he didn't hesitate and immediately gave the order.
One demon cultivator after another rushed out of the city lord's mansion to spread the word to the demon immortals stationed throughout the realms.
The “heaven and earth net” that had been covering the entire Desolate Blood Gate territory now turned its focus, converging on a single target.
That target was precisely the location of Jiang Chengxuan and his companions!
aEUR “They've found usaEUR ” The moment the seal on the puppet cultivators' consciousness was broken, Jiang Chengxuan, who was thousands of miles away, immediately sensed it.
At this moment, after a month of careful exploration, they had finally reached the edge of the Desolate Blood Gate's territory.
If they could delay for just a few more days, they might be able to escape the Demon Sect.
However, this was ultimately just a fantasy.
The crisis of death had finally descended upon them.
“It seems this battle is unavoidable!” Jiang Chengxuan said, his gaze sharp, his fighting spirit surging.
Behind him, Qingfeng Xuanzun and Ziyao Xuanzun shared the same determination.
After a month of recovery, they were now fully restored and at their peak.
Hearing Jiang Chengxuan say that their cover had been blown and the entire Demon Sect was coming after them, they remained calm yet resolute.
Having experienced life-and-death situations, none of them were the type to falter in fear.
Since the Demon Sect was coming, it would give Yun Nanfeng's family a chance for vengeance.
“Hmph!
Even if it means death, I'll make the entire Desolate Blood Gate pay the price for this!” Yun Nanfeng said, his eyes burning with fury.
They were now atop a high plateau, surrounded by biting winds and a cold sun hanging high.
In the blink of an eye, the winds changed.
From all directions, waves of demonic energy surged like a massive wall, pushing forward.
Red lightning thundered within the storm, and towering demonic figures blocked the sky, casting a shadow that made the world grow dark.
Having locked onto Jiang Chengxuan and his companions' location, the demon immortals of the Demon Realm arrived without obstruction.
In just a few breaths, the first batch of demon cultivators had arrived, forming a complete encirclement.
“How dare you intrude into my Desolate Blood Gate, kill my Grand Elders!
Do you even know your crime?!” A voice like thunder echoed from the heavens, and a demonic figure with a fearsome visage appeared, roaring at Jiang Chengxuan and his group.
Upon hearing this, Yun Nanfeng revealed his Immortal realm, shouting back with equal fury: “You demon cultivators, you are not worth living!
If I could slay all of you, that would be true joy!” Without hesitation, his Immortal realm glowed brightly, and the purple moon rose into the sky, pouring forth a torrent of immortal power.
He immediately unleashed a divine technique, transforming it into a river of stars that surged upwards to challenge the demonic figure in the heavens.
Boom!
In an instant, the heavens and earth shook, and the demonic storm raged.
The collision of the two forces caused a deafening roar.
