True Immortal of the Netherworld

The powerful phantom beast that serves as the guardian spirit in the Glazed Fire Dao was drunk by Xu Yang with nightmare beast spirit wine. At the same time, the Glazed Fire Dao with a range of eight hundred miles was like a terrifying giant with a hangover, its huge body lying there paralyzed, without the mania and violence of the past.

On the surface of the low, hilly glazed fire path, red air waves would occasionally erupt, making a low rumbling sound that could be heard far away. It seems to be snoring, warning people who want to get close that this is still dangerous.

In Wuminggufang City.

An ordinary two-story wooden loft is located at the corner of the street, with a no-entry sign on the door.

In the quiet room, an old man with white hair and beard sat on a large yellow wooden chair.

The old man was wearing a gray gown and his face was thin. What is striking is that one of his eyes has a black eyepatch, which highlights his fierce look. In the other deeply sunken eye socket, the eyes are as bright and bright as a young man's.

At this moment, he was looking intently at a secret letter in his hand with his one eye.

After you read it carefully, give it a pinch with your fingertips. Poof, a purple flame suddenly ignited on its own, and the sealed letter instantly turned into fly ash, disappearing in a mess.

After doing all this, the one-eyed old man narrowed his eyes slightly, thoughtfully.

After a while, the one-eyed old man stood up from the yellow wooden chair, paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, and said to himself: "Counting the time, the people sent out should come back."

"Dong dong...dong dong dong..."

The door knocked five times rhythmically, which seemed to be a secret signal.

The old man turned around, faced the door, raised one hand, and hit the closed door with a spell.

A complicated circle of light golden talisman patterns suddenly appeared on the door. After a moment, the golden light faded, and with a creak, the door opened on its own.

"Sir Elder, it's me."

Before he finished speaking, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man wearing dark business alliance clothes leaned out of the door.

The middle-aged man's forehead was slightly sweaty, but his breath was as steady as usual. When he saw the old man, he quickly saluted and said: "My lord, my subordinate has just returned from the Glazed Fire Road according to your instructions. The situation there has been found out."

"Say." The one-eyed old man said simply with hope in his eyes when he heard the words.

"As the elder guessed, the power of the demonic blood formation in the Glazed Fire Path is weakening much faster than previously estimated. As a result, it will only take about half a month for the demonic fire in the Glazed Fire Path to be extinguished. By then, , the door to the Green Fire Demon Realm will open," the middle-aged man said.

"Immediately arrange for people from the merchant alliance to issue an announcement. Once someone obtains a treasure from the Green Fire Demon Realm, the merchant alliance will take it back at a high price. For the merchant alliance, this is the beginning of a business feast. The three major merchant alliances will take advantage of the Qinghuo Demon Realm this time. Leave the business of the Demon Realm to me, and we must achieve results." The one-eyed old man looked excited when he heard the news, stroking his silver beard with his hand, and continued: "I want to think of some people who think they are capable. People, I’m afraid they’re already eager to give it a try.”

...

In front of the Glazed Fire Road.

The breath of demonic fire was far less violent than before, but the area more than ten feet outward from the edge was still hot.

At this moment, a small white spot appeared in the distant sky, heading in the direction of the Glazed Fire Path.

The speed of the white dot was not slow. As the distance got closer and closer, it turned out to be a white-feathered Tao crane.

A white-feathered Taoist crane descended gracefully, and sitting on it were two practitioners wearing Bagua Taoist robes and wearing tile-red Taoist crowns. Baihe Taoist has a somewhat extraordinary Taoist style.

If Xu Yang were here, he would definitely recognize that these two people were Yu Shan Lao Dao and his junior brother Mei Shan Lao Dao who came here on the same trip to the Merchant Alliance Teleportation Array.

Yushan and Meishan were originally two small spiritual mountains within the Qingzhou boundary of the Northern Territory. I don't know when they were occupied by these two brothers. From then on, one called himself the Yushan Old Taoist and the other called himself the Meishan Old Taoist.

"Senior Brother, as you judged, the demonic fire in the Glazed Fire Dao has weakened a lot."

After hearing this, the old Taoist Yushan said proudly: "Junior brother, the last time I entered it, I quietly planted a fire source pine cone in the glazed fire path. The fire source pine cone has a strong skin and will melt when burned by the magic fire. If the temperature of the magic fire suddenly drops, the carbonized shell of the fire source pine cone will crack, and the crane feather hidden inside will be burned by the magic fire. Linghe can feel it."

"As expected of you, senior brother. Your acting skills that day when you pretended to be burned by demonic fire and your clothes were burned are both top-notch."

"Ahem. Last time, I was really burned by the demonic fire. It was not acting. The demonic fire in the Glazed Fire Dao is indeed powerful. As for the fire source pine cone, it is just a small trick, not worth mentioning." Old Taoist Yushan said seriously.

"Senior brother, although the demonic fire in the glazed fire path is weakened, it is still very powerful. With the strength of you and me, can we really enter it smoothly?"

Old Taoist Yushan narrowed his eyes, and then said: "Let me carefully check the intensity of the demonic fire inside, if possible. We'd better enter first. There must be a lot of treasures in the Green Fire Demonic Realm, whoever finds it first will be the winner. of."

"It all depends on senior brother's arrangements."

Old Taoist Yushan waved to Bai He behind him.

The white crane was also spiritual, and he immediately stretched out his neck and approached the old Taoist Yushan.

"I'll lend you two feathers."

With that said, Old Taoist Yushan stretched out his hand and pulled off two white crane feathers about a foot long from Bai He's body. The pain made the white crane scream strangely, and its whole body shivered, but it did not dare to resist.

"Brother, can you be gentler to the little animals? They are flesh and blood creatures after all. You make me, the president of the Meishan Animal Protection Association, really look down on you."

"Your Meishan Laoshizi Animal Protection Association only cares about Meishan's affairs, but not my Yushan's affairs." Yushan's old Taoist glared and said angrily.

"That's right, that's right." Meishan's old Taoist changed his tone and continued: "Master, he always taught that all living things in the world are equal, and only by having a compassionate heart can you cultivate Taoism. That's what I did."

After saying that, tears flashed in the eyes of the old Meishan Taoist.

When Yu Shan heard this, he seemed to be moved. He raised his eyes forty-five degrees and looked at the sky, and vowed: "This time we ventured into the Green Fire Demon Realm to carry forward the legacy of Master. Do you and I have to live in a snail's nest forever? In Yushan and Lingshan, which are only the size of a pill?"

"Senior brother is absolutely right. Master only has you and me as his disciples. If we don't make a difference, wouldn't Master's lineage be wasted?"

"Let me test it out first."

After the old Taoist Yushan finished speaking, he recited the Taoist mantra in his mouth, and with a burst of magic power, silver runes suddenly flashed out on the surface of the two foot-long white feathers in his hands.

"go!"

Immediately he raised his hand, and Bai Yu, like two silver arrows shot out, swung straight into the glazed fire path ten feet away on the opposite side.

After doing all this, Taoist Yushan straightened the tile-red Taoist crown on his head with his hands and remained silent, as if waiting for something.

The old Meishan Taoist on the side did not dare to say anything, and the scene suddenly became quiet.

"Hey, hey."

At this time, the white crane behind Yushan Old Taoist screamed twice.

Old Taoist Yu Shan frowned and said in a low voice: "Junior brother, although the demonic fire inside has weakened, it is still very powerful. If we break in at this time, we are only 50% sure."

"Senior brother, didn't we get a fire-proof treasure in the market? If we use this treasure, how sure can we be?"

"Hey, hey." The white crane shouted twice first.

Old Taoist Yushan immediately replied: "Sixty percent."

"Sixty percent?" The old Taoist from Meishan looked hesitant, and then said: "Brother, please make up your mind."

"Now that you're here, you might as well give it a try. If it doesn't work, it's okay for you and me to withdraw."

"Senior brother is brilliant." Meishan Old Taoist said with a thumbs up.

"Follow me." Old Taoist Yushan said decisively.

Old Taoist Yushan turned his wrist, and something appeared in his palm. This object is shaped like a bronze bell, with six koi carps swimming in the water depicted on the surface. The brilliance flows and the aura of treasure lingers.

"This koi fire shield is also a rare artifact. Today, we will try its power."

After saying this, Yushan Old Taoist threw it with his hand.

The koi fire shield hung above the two people's heads. It kept spinning and suddenly turned into a size of about ten feet.

Without stopping for a moment, Old Taoist Yushan fired another magic formula.

"Buzz!" There was a sound.

The six koi on the koi fire shield turned out to be like living creatures, swimming on the surface of the object, and at the same time, they spit out wisps of aqua-blue spiritual light.

The spiritual light shrouded downwards, protecting the two old Taoists of Yushan and the figure of the white spiritual crane.

The old Taoist from Meishan felt like he was in the pool, cool and pleasant, and couldn't help but praise: "What a baby, so cool."

After that, a koi carp opened the fire shield to protect the body, and the two boldly entered the glazed fire path.

In the fire path, the aura of demonic fire rolled, but it could not harm the two people under the fire shield.

The two of them went deeper and deeper.

The Glazed Fire Road is eight hundred miles long. Three full days have passed, and the two of them have only advanced a distance of more than a hundred miles.

For three days, they kept activating the koi fire shield, which consumed a lot of their mana and mental energy.

Looking at the boundless fire path around him, the old Meishan Taoist showed an anxious look, turned around and said: "Brother, half of my energy has been consumed, and I don't know where we are. If we can't pass the glazed fire path in three days, we will be powerless. It will be troublesome to activate this magic weapon."

"Calculating the distance, we should have traveled a hundred miles. However, don't worry, senior brother, how could I have entered rashly if I was not fully prepared."

After saying this, Old Taoist Yushan grabbed the white crane behind him with his hand, twisted its long neck, opened his mouth and bit it down. "

The white crane croaked wildly, flapped its wings, and shivered.

"Cruel, cruel." The old Meishan Taoist on the side saw this and said with pity.

After a while, Old Taoist Yushan retracted his mouth, and his aura became much stronger.

"You should also take a sip. The spiritual blood of my spirit crane is a great tonic for replenishing my mana and physical strength. You know, in order to cultivate this spirit crane, I have used countless rare elixirs. Now, if it is useful, it should be used. What? You, the president of the Meishan Animal Protection Association, are not just vegetarians, are you?

The old Taoist from Meishan licked his chapped lips, and then said: "Little White Bird, I can only wrong you a little."

Immediately, he bit the white crane on the neck, causing the bird to flutter its wings and mess up its feathers in pain.

The old Taoist from Meishan didn't care, sucking the spiritual blood from Bai He's body, with greed burning in his eyes.

"Junior brother, what are you doing? Are you borrowing blood? You are raping it. If it dies, we have no source of mana and will eventually fall here."

After hearing the scolding from Master Yushan, Master Meishan stopped, wiped the blood on his mouth with his hand and said, "What a bird."

In this way, the two set off towards their goal.
