Chapter 547: Chapter 352 Ancient Demon Formation, Falling into the Demon Path_2
“I do not know, but the aura I just sensed is from the sa source as the Demon Cultivator I encountered previously in Holy City.
Even if they are not the sa person, there must be so unusual connection between them.”
Lu Qing recalled the state of the Divine Soul’s fluctuation in the talisman before it dissipated.
It seed like Wei Xinghe was trapped sowhere, surrounded by erging Demonic Qi, and vaguely, there seed to be many people wailing.
Unfortunately, his own Divine Soul was still not powerful enough.
The power of the emitted Divine Soul fluctuation was limited.
And the distance was too great, the things he could sense were very vague.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t need to guess like this.
Now he could only hurry to State Mansion to find out the truth of the matter.
The question was whether Wei Xinghe could hold on until the mont he arrived.
Thinking of this, Lu Qing’s thoughts stirred, and the breezes swirling around him grew more intense.
At the sa ti, his speed surged again.
From high above, he appeared as a stream of bluish-yellow light, speeding toward the direction of the State Mansion City along the ground.
The Prefecture was a thousand miles away from Jiuli Village. When Lu Qing was still at the Postnatal Realm, he had made a night raid to kill the Innate Realm old crone from the Zheng Family.
Now his Cultivation was imasurably stronger than it was then.
And his speed was far beyond any comparison to that ti.
Thus, though he had left in the afternoon, the State Mansion City was already in sight before nightfall.
“Hm?”
However, when Lu Qing saw the State Mansion City, he suddenly felt sothing was wrong.
He found the State Mansion City, which lay like a massive beast upon the land, was presently enveloped in a layer of black light.
That black light, which emitted an evil aura, looked quite strange.
“This is a Demon Formation, who has such great capability to set up an Array of such large scope?”
The figure of “Yan” materialized beside Lu Qing, looking at the State Mansion City ahead with so astonishnt.
“It’s not just an Array; there are also Magical Treasures.”
Lu Qing stared at the black energy screen, and soon, lines of information floated into his view.
[Blood lting Soul Refining Array: An ancient Devilish Array inherited from the Black Sky Demon Venerable of the Heavenly Origin Great World, exceedingly evil and malicious.]
[Blood lting and Soul Refining, mysterious Demon Cultivators intend to use this Array to lt the citizens of an entire city, turning them into nourishnt and condensing a Demon Body.]
[This Array is a very simplified version established with the Devilish Magical Treasure as the core, its power being less than one ten-millionth of the original Array.]
…
“To turn the citizens of a city into nourishnt to condense a Demon Body?”
When Lu Qing saw the information on the lines, his face turned ashen.
So much so that he temporarily disregarded the ntion of Black Sky Demon Venerable displayed on the lines.
No wonder the fluctuation of his Divine Soul had sensed as if many wails were arising around Wei Shanhai.
And why he had felt a premonition in the back of his mind.
It turns out that a Demon Cultivator had set up an Array with the intent to turn all the citizens of State Mansion City into nourishnt to form a Demon Body.
One must know, there are tens of thousands of citizens in the State Mansion City.
“Young Master, what are you saying?” “Yan” exclaid in shock upon hearing this, “That Demon Cultivator wants to Refine all the people in this city, how dare they?”
“How so? Did the elder not say that Demon Cultivators are cruel and lawless, treating human life as worthless? There’s nothing they wouldn’t dare.”
“It’s not the sa,” “Yan” said, “Although Demon Cultivators are cruel and fond of killing, there is a limit.
Such a conduct of lting the entire city’s citizens will certainly induce trendous sin.
Even a Demon Cultivator at the Primordial Spirit Realm wouldn’t dare to do so.
Otherwise, the punishnt of the Heavenly Dao would descend, and no one could bear it.”
“Then how does the elder explain the situation in front of us?” Lu Qing indicated forward.
“This…” “Yan” was at a loss for words.
After a mont of thought, it said, “Perhaps, this Array is only trapping the city and is not necessarily trying to Refine all the people in it.”
“No matter what it is, we’ll find out soon enough.”
Lu Qing didn’t rush to enter the city; with the situation unclear and the State Mansion City being trapped, his rash entry might instead cause trouble.
“Little Li, guard for a mont.”
Lu Qing instructed, before sitting down, crossing his legs, concentrating his mind and entering a ditative state.
At this distance, he should be able to sense the presence of his Divine Soul in the talisman.
Indeed, it didn’t take long for Lu Qing to sense a breath similar to his own within the city, faint and ethereal.
However, due to the array’s obstruction, it would take so effort for him to connect with it.
Lu Qing imdiately employed his ntal thod, attempting to link with that thread of Divine Soul breath.
Just as Lu Qing was strenuously striving to connect with the talisman,
In a small alley within State Mansion City, Wei Shanhai was holding a broken Jade Sword Talisman, looking with utter despair at the figure before him that seed both familiar and alien.
He never imagined that his son could turn into this inhuman, ghostly state.
“Father, I’ve said before, your struggles are futile.
It would be better to join in following Lord Demon and contribute to his cause, achieving greatness.”
Before Wei Xinghe, with a body exuding black gas and a dark mark between the eyebrows emanating malevolence, Wei Zihao gently laughed.
“Zihao, tell who turned you into this?”
Wei Xinghe looked at his completely unrecognizable son, his heart twisting in pain.
“What, Father, do you think I am not better off this way?” Wei Zihao extended an arm covered with strange runes, “But I feel that this is very good.
Father, you saw it as well, my current cultivation far surpasses yours.
Even that Sword Qi Talisman that you sohow acquired couldn’t harm in the slightest.”
Seeing this, Wei Xinghe felt even more heartache.
“Zihao, wake up, do you really think the power you possess now is truly your own?”
“Father really has a sense of humor, if this power isn’t mine, could it be yours?
But, if Father is willing to heed my advice, submit to the Demon Lord,
With your realm in the Innate Realm, it’s not difficult to obtain such power.
So now, Father, please follow to et the Demon Lord.
He ntioned earlier that he’s very interested in the Sword Qi Talisman you offered.”
After Wei Zihao finished speaking, his hand gently reached towards Wei Xinghe.
The seemingly casual gesture caused Wei Xinghe’s complexion to change drastically.
Without thinking, he stomped the ground and rapidly retreated backward.
“Father, it’s useless, you won’t be able to escape.”
Wei Zihao smiled faintly as the black gas from his hand turned into two venomous snakes, coiling towards the retreating figure of Wei Xinghe.
The Demonic Qi snakes were extrely fast and in the blink of an eye, had caught up with Wei Xinghe.
Wei Xinghe had experienced the power of this black gas firsthand and dared not let it touch his body,
Yet he couldn’t outrun this bizarre thing.
Left with no other choice, he gritted his teeth and activated the last talisman on his person.
The next mont, a blue light erged from Wei Xinghe’s body, exponentially increasing his speed.
It not only instantly increased the distance between him and the dark gas, but he also vanished from Wei Zihao’s view with a few leaps.
Wei Zihao, who had been so confident and smiling monts ago, suddenly had his face fall.
He had never expected that at this ti, his father still had a trump card.
However, he quickly resud smiling.
“It’s futile, Father, you cannot escape State Mansion City under the great array’s envelopnt.”
With those words, he turned into a black shadow, chasing in the direction Wei Xinghe disappeared.
After escaping the alley, Wei Xinghe dared not pause.
According to what Lu Qing had told him when he gave him the talisman, the Light Spirit Talisman’s effect could only last for a quarter of an hour.
He had to escape the city within this ti.
Otherwise, not only would he perish in the city, but the entire State Mansion City could turn into hell.
Thinking of the terrifying figure he had seen earlier,
Wei Xinghe knew that in all of Cang State, perhaps only Lu Qing could save the city’s residents.
Of course, that was provided he could make it out.
Just as Wei Xinghe was fleeing for his life, a Divine Soul Fluctuation suddenly emitted from him.
“Family Master Wei, can you hear ?”
“Young Master Lu?!”
Hearing this voice, Wei Xinghe abruptly stopped, a ecstatic expression flooding his face.
