In those years when I was a mortal and a demon

In the center of the holy city, there is a hall that is only about a hundred feet high and has the common cylindrical shape. It does not look unusual.

However, around the hall, there are many ancient stone pillars that are dozens of feet high and as thick as buckets, surrounding the hall layer by layer.

Lu Yuan and others flew to the stone pillars outside the hall, and then the stone sea in front of them retracted their escape light and landed on the ground.

However, when the group walked into the stone pillars, Lu Yuan suddenly felt his whole body tighten, and then the magic power in his body seemed to be half imprisoned, and he couldn't use it at all.

This?

Lu Yuan was shocked and quickly looked at other people.

Niu Yin next to him also had a changed expression on his face, obviously encountering the same situation as Lu Yuan.

Fortunately, only Lu Yuan's magic power was suppressed, but his spiritual consciousness was not affected.

Therefore, under Lu Yuan's perception, he found that Shi Hai, who was walking in the front, had no mana fluctuations. However, Shi Hai seemed to be accustomed to it, and there was no change on his face.

But what surprised Lu Yuan the most was that Shi Die and Shi Xiao were not affected at all. He could still sense that their magic power was constantly running.

"This is the suppression of the Shilun Totem. Unless one can comprehend the Shilun Totem, anyone below the level of Demon Lord will not be able to resist it." Shi Xiao on the side pointed at the surrounding stone pillars and said to Lu Yuan and Niu Yin.

Lu Yuan took a closer look and found that there were indeed some special patterns and symbols engraved on the stone pillars, and they were basically the same as those on the Shi Lun totem phantom summoned by Shi Xiao.

After understanding it, Lu Yuan felt a little relieved.

The group walked along the way, and in less than a cup of tea, they arrived in front of the so-called temple. The entire temple was also built with stone pillars engraved with symbols, and its door was open.

Lu Yuan looked around and found that there was only less than a hundred feet of space inside the temple.

At the very center, there are four totem poles as thick as water tanks supporting the dome. In the middle of the four totem poles is a three-foot-high bluestone platform that can accommodate several people sitting cross-legged.

At this time, there was only one figure in the hall, with his arms folded across his chest, leaning carelessly on a totem pole supporting the dome of the hall next to a three-foot high platform. It was Shi Man.

Lu Yuan sensed it slightly and found that the fluctuation of magic power on Shi Man was less than one tenth of what it was before. The worry in his heart was reduced a lot again, but at the same time he also felt a little admiration for Shi Man's ability to resist the suppression of Shi Lun's power here.

When Shi Man saw Lu Yuan and others coming, he snorted coldly, then rolled his eyes up and looked at the dome of the hall.

"Don't pay attention to him." Shi Die said coldly, and led everyone to sit cross-legged under a stone pillar opposite Shi Man.

Seeing that there was nothing else in the temple that could attract his interest, Lu Yuan sat down as well, then closed his eyes and began to meditate.

The Stone Demon Clan is not at peace right now, so it seems we can't dawdle and stay here for too long.

It would be best to wait until the elder has finished dealing with today's affairs, and then confront Shi Xiao and the others. It would be best if we could deal with the mountain giant's body as soon as possible. Otherwise, we should consider leaving as soon as possible to avoid being involved in the power struggle of the stone demons.

After waiting for about half an hour, the space in the temple suddenly fluctuated, and then on the three-foot high platform in the center, a figure flashed silently from the void. It was actually an old stone demon with a slightly hunched back.

The reason why he is called the old stone demon is that his face is basically the same as that of an ordinary person, and he has many wrinkles like an old human being.

His skin was completely dull and had many ravines on it, like a rotten stone that had been weathered for many years, and it seemed that it would fall apart at any time. His eyes were cloudy, but extremely deep.

But even so, the aura on his body was hidden and not revealed. Lu Yuan was unable to tell the depth of his cultivation. He was definitely a Demon Lord at the middle stage or above, and should be the great elder of the Stone Demon Clan.

Sure enough, when he saw the old stone demon appear, Shi Hai was the first to stand up and greet him.

"Shi Hai meets the Great Elder!"

The others, Niu Yin, Shi Die and Shi Xiao, also stood up. Lu Yuan did not dare to be negligent and also stood up and bowed.

Only Shi Man seemed fine, still lazily leaning against the totem pole.

"Hmm?" Seeing this, the old stone demon glanced at Shi Man.

Shi Man then reluctantly left the totem pole and bowed casually.

The old stone demon didn't say anything else. He just waved his hand, signaling everyone to excuse themselves.

"I roughly know the situation, but it just happened that I was in the critical stage of refining a furnace of pills at that time, and I couldn't get away in time. Shi Hai, you've worked really hard this time." The old stone demon came up and cast an approving look at Shi Hai.

"You are too polite, Great Elder. This is Shi Hai's job." Shi Hai said calmly.

"Well, as for the three of you, learn more from Shi Hai. You actually fought in the Holy City, and in front of outsiders. If this gets out, how will other big clans view it!" The old stone demon's tone changed, and he glanced at Shi Die, Shi Xiao and Shi Man with a gleam in his eyes.

"Great Elder, this time it was Shi Man who deliberately picked a fight and attacked me and Brother Xiao first!" As soon as the old stone demon finished speaking, Shi Die was the first to disagree.

"It's obvious that the people you brought into the Holy City have problems. For the safety of the Holy City, I was just checking them, but you stopped us. It's obvious that you have something to hide!" Shi Man retorted bluntly.

"Great Elder, please be wise. This is absolutely Shi Man's slander. The two fellow Taoists we brought here..." Shi Xiao also wanted to explain something anxiously.

"Enough!" The old stone demon interrupted with a cold voice and an expressionless face. At the same time, a terrifying aura suddenly burst out from his body.

Everyone present felt the void around them suddenly tighten, and their bodies suddenly became extremely heavy. They were suppressed by this terrifying aura and could not move at all.

"I already have a general idea of ​​what happened. They are just some trivial matters. I don't want to delve into the twists and turns. Today's matter ends here. No one is allowed to mention it again, or it will cause complications. Do you understand?" The old stone demon glanced at everyone present.

Everyone was overwhelmed by the terrifying aura of the old stone demon, and naturally no one was stupid enough to refute anything.

Seeing that no one was talking, the coldness on the old stone demon's face faded a lot, and he also restrained his aura.

"Shi Xiao, since you have already comprehended the Shilun totem, you should focus more on cultivation and strive to advance to the Demon Sect as soon as possible. From today on, you are not allowed to leave the Holy City without my order, otherwise you will be punished according to the clan rules!" The old stone demon narrowed his eyes and gave the order in a dignified manner.

"The same goes for you. From now on, you are not allowed to cause trouble for Shi Die and Shi Xiao. Do you understand?" The old stone demon turned his head and looked at Shi Man on the other side.

"I'm too lazy to argue with them, but these two seem to be quite effective in resisting the heavenly calamity, so why not leave it to me." Shi Man glanced at Lu Yuan and Niu Yin.

Upon hearing this, the old stone demon immediately glanced towards Lu Yuan and Niu Yin.

Lu Yuan, whose magic power was suppressed, immediately felt that his internal organs were seen clearly by this person, and he could not help but be shocked.

In particular, the old stone demon's gaze only stayed on Niu Yin for a moment, and then stopped on Lu Yuan, as if he had seen something.
