Chapter 230 The Guardian
Most of the hundreds of thousands of big monsters guarding the Grand Canyon died almost instantly. The Sky-Devouring Demon King was extremely decisive. When he saw that things were not going well, he ran away directly, thus preserving most of the vitality of the Immortal-Devouring Island.
In just a short moment, all the monsters in the Grand Canyon were killed or fled, leaving no one behind. The Grand Canyon, which was originally heavily guarded, was now empty, leaving only Zhang Qian, Liu Qingqing, and Zhan Taixuan in the mine!
"A good death!"
Liu Qingqing smiled with satisfaction when she saw the fate of these monsters. Then she turned around and saw Zhang Qian busy holding an illusory cauldron and collecting the bodies of the puppets that she had commanded the golden men to kill. She couldn't help but frown!
Zhang Qian put in some effort at first, but seeing that it didn't have much effect, after Liu Qingqing showed his great power, he simply took the Qiankun Ding and began to collect the bodies of these puppets left behind after their death!
Most of these flesh bodies were left behind by some great demons, and they were all rich in blood. If they were refined into divine aura using the Heavenly Demon Pagoda and absorbed by it, his flesh body would benefit greatly!
"It seems that these two people's cultivation is not very high, but they have some strange methods. Could it be that they are just some minor monks?"
Liu Qingqing was a little puzzled, but unfortunately Zhang Qian and Zhan Taixuan were wearing mirage masks on their faces, which could block the detection of spiritual sense. Liu Qingqing had no idea how powerful they were, otherwise she would have discovered that they were just two small cultivators whom she could almost destroy with a wave of her hand.
"Master Liu, this demon god seems to be trying to escape. We should quickly think of a way to open this formation so that we can leave!"
Zhang Qian took a look at the situation on the field. The hundreds of thousands of blood beads had already corroded the entire formation a lot. If this continued, the innate formation might be completely corroded, and then the demon god would escape.
However, this mineral vein is surrounded by a large formation set up by the giant star sea monsters. The formation is transparent throughout, but people can only enter but not exit. Without breaking the formation, there is no way out!
Zhang Qian did have the Ten-Earth-Slaying Demon Shuttle in his hand, but this formation was set up by the joint efforts of many great spirits and demons in the Great Starry Sea, and the Ten-Earth-Slaying Demon Shuttle could not break through it.
Liu Qingqing's face changed when she heard that. She glanced around and said, "This formation is already the most top-level formation, relying on the entire innate spiritual stone vein. If you want to break it, you must gather at least five powerful Yuanshen to have hope. I don't have any way, but your friend, her fairy bell is very magical, it seems to be very restrained by the sealed demon god. You should think of a way to make the power of this fairy seed manifest, so that we can have a chance to get out of here!"
Zhang Qian looked at the immortal seed behind Zhan Taixuan. At this moment, this immortal seed had been connected with the entire innate formation here. A series of extremely mysterious formation patterns enveloped Zhan Taixuan and protected him tightly.
The array patterns flowed, and the large array covering the entire vein appeared and disappeared from time to time, flashing extremely complex Taoist patterns. Seeing these Taoist patterns, Zhang Qian was surprised to find that even with his Golden Immortal realm, he could not understand them.
This is natural. The great formation laid out by the ancient world tree is impossible for Zhang Qian to understand, not to mention that he was a golden immortal in his previous life. Even if he was a Daluo immortal, the existence of the world tree is even more terrifying than the legendary Daluo golden immortal!
“Is he going to die here? This demon god was sealed by the World Tree. Apparently, even the Primordial World Tree cannot completely kill him. It can only seal him. What realm can an existence that cannot be killed by the Primordial World Tree be in?”
Thinking of this, Zhang Qian's heart trembled.
"Xuan'er, can you hear me?"
After thinking for a while, Zhang Qian came in front of Zhan Taixuan, but was blocked by the formation pattern covering Zhan Taixuan. He could only call out.
After a while, a voice suddenly sounded in Zhang Qian's heart. This voice seemed to be everywhere, as if it was spread all over the world, and Zhang Qian could hear it clearly.
"Lucky boy, this is where I sealed a demon god from outer space, but it was only his head that was sealed here. Now the seal is being dug and cracks have appeared. Coupled with the corrosion of the blood of hundreds of thousands of demons, the entire seal will soon collapse. When the demon god's head is born, all living things will be devastated. The demon god's original cultivation level was only one step away from becoming a Golden Immortal, but after so many years of sealing and separation of his body, he has long lost his original power. You take Xuan'er into the cave and get in front of the demon god. Naturally, I will find a way to seal him up again!"
This voice shocked Zhang Qian: "You...you are the World Tree!" "It's me!"
Zhang Qian felt a chill in his heart. The voice of the World Tree appeared in his mind without any obstruction, which made Zhang Qian feel extremely worried. He didn't know whether his origins would be known to the World Tree.
Fortunately, the remaining jade in Zhang Qian's soul exerted its power and did not let the terrifying world tree know Zhang Qian's true origins.
During the investigation of the World Tree, it was discovered that Zhang Qian was the reincarnation of an ancient golden immortal, and the rest of the truth was all hidden by the broken jade.
Sensing this, Zhang Qian breathed a sigh of relief. He struggled in his heart for a while, looked at the cave on the other side that not only used the Blood Red Demon Cloud, but also was a little undecided.
Obviously, this cave is the gap in the seal. Following this cave, one can see the sealed head of the demon god, but this is no different from seeking death!
"Are you sure you want me to go into the cave?"
Hearing Zhang Qian's doubts, the majestic voice of the World Tree rang out: "Don't worry, you are the one I chose to protect Zhan Taixuan. How could I let you die!"
"what!"
Zhang Qian cried out in surprise, thinking rapidly in his mind: "A protector? Could it be that everything that Zhan Taixuan and I have experienced was secretly arranged by the World Tree?"
At this moment, Zhang Qian suddenly felt like he was being manipulated. Thinking about his experiences with Zhan Taixuan, many things seemed far-fetched, yet seemed extremely natural. It was very likely that the World Tree had noticed Zhang Qian, a man with a strange origin, early on, and then chose him as Zhan Taixuan's protector, to help Zhan Taixuan complete his mission and ultimately free the World Tree from trouble!
This is not impossible. When you reach the terrifying realm of the World Tree, it is really easy to manipulate the fate of others!
Are there not many such things in the prehistoric world? How many powerful beings, even how many Golden Immortals, have unknowingly become pawns of saints, and their fates have been secretly manipulated by saints?
"Are you hesitating? Are you afraid? If you don't go, you will die when the demon god's head is freed. If you go, you still have a chance of survival!"
The voice of the World Tree continued to sound. Zhang Qian gritted his teeth and thought about his own trump card. He knew that what the World Tree said was true. Once the Demon God's head escaped, he would be dead. Even if he visualized the phantom of the Buzhou Divine Mountain and attracted the pressure of the Golden Immortal in his previous life, it would be useless!
"Okay, I'll go!"
Zhang Qian suddenly opened his eyes, picked up Zhan Taixuan, said hello to Liu Qingqing, and rushed towards the cave where the devil clouds were rolling!
While running, Zhang Qian carefully watched Zhan Taixuan in his arms and found that Zhan Taixuan seemed to be trapped in a wonderful state of Taoism, motionless. Obviously, Zhan Taixuan's mind was already immersed in the entire innate formation, and he was trying his best to stimulate the power of the immortal seed. The World Tree was also communicating with Zhang Qian through this immortal seed!
