It Had to Be Properly Sealed

This time, after Su Bai entered the circled area, he frantically scanned the area with his Divine Sense for a full ten days.

Unfortunately, they still came up empty-handed.

Su Duanqiu also captured the Demon Cultivator alive and handed him over to Su Bai.

The Demon Cultivator 'Demonic Soul had a peculiar structure and seemed to have been manipulated in some way. Su Bai used his Spiritual Sense Power to search their memories, but all he found were empty, chaotic Chaos.

Otherwise, if the relevant memories could be found in the Demon Cultivator's mind, and the source traced, the matter could be resolved quickly.

"You can't find anything with just your Divine Sense."

Su Bai opened his interface, scanned the dense array of Talent on his body, and searched for Talent abilities that could deal with the current situation.

A moment later, Su Bai's gaze settled on [Mountain Spirit's Gift].

This is Near Ancient Tier Bloodline from the Nightmare Rat Clan. Its history may not be long, but its abilities are indeed extremely well-suited to the present era.

[Mountain Spirit's Gift]: A Near Ancient Tier Bloodline Talent of the Nightmare Rat Tribe, increasing affinity with the Earth Veins and slightly enhancing physical constitution. It allows the user to sense the communication fluctuations between the roots of spirit medicine and the spiritual Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi within the Earth Veins; and slightly enhances the user's ability to absorb spirit medicine.

"It's a pity we're not at sea; if we were, the [Tidal Sound Pulse Sensing] would be even more effective."

With a try-it-and-see attitude, Su Bai activated the [Mountain Spirit's Gift] stored on his finger.

A different kind of sensation, distinct from Divine Sense perception, arose in Su Bai's heart.

The aura of spirit medicine from the nearby Earth Veins entered Su Bai's senses.

"Hmm, as expected of a special spirit-finding Talent; there are quite a few spirit medicine herbs nearby."

Beneath the Earth Veins, the surface layer of spirit medicine has been mostly found.

However, in some deeper locations, many spirit medicine are actually lurking Demon Beast.

Su Bai was not here to find these low- to mid-grade spirit medicine; he would leave the spirit medicine to the Cultivator came to explore the Spirit Plain.

He only wanted to use his connection to the spirit medicine to see if there were any major problems in the surrounding area.

[Mountain Spirit's Gift] has a limited range of perception, so Su Bai moved around within a 300-mile radius.

in this way.

Half an hour later.

Su Bai's figure slowly came to a stop.

"Hmm? Not a single spirit medicine grows in this area."

"Under the influence of [the Mountain Spirit's Gift], this situation has never occurred before."

Su Bai also knew that he had found the source.

He carefully scanned the area with his Divine Sense, combined with the sensations from the [Mountain Spirit's Gift].

Su Bai quickly found a barren area.

The land in this area looks like an ordinary wasteland, about a hundred feet in diameter.

However, upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that this wasteland has been barren for far too long, and the areas are clearly divided into two distinct zones. Within the wasteland, not a single blade of grass grows, while outside, where the Spiritual Qi content is the same, the ancient trees are hundreds of feet tall.

Su Bai's Sword Heart began to issue a faint warning.

Although not intense, it had a somber feel to it.

Even though it was just a barren wasteland with nothing in front of him, why did it arouse Sword Heart's suspicion?

Unless there is something here that can pose a great danger without actually being in front of you.

Let me see what's here.

Su Bai used a High-Level Earth Escape Technique) and rushed underground.

After descending about ten feet, Su Bai discovered that it was extremely difficult to use Earth Escape Technique in this desolate area.

The surrounding soil had a corrosive ability, eroding Su Bai's Spiritual Power.

"This is..."

Although Su Bai had never truly witnessed Demonic Energy, he had read quite a few related books.

In High Antiquity times, there were also Devil Race Cultivator in this world, who were the largest race in this world.

Although they were later wiped out by the Demon Race and the Human Race, the Devil Race Cultivator naturally left a significant mark on the various records of this world.

"The only thing capable of eroding Spiritual Power and destroying the structure of Divine Ability Spells should be Demon Qi..."

"Could this be Demon Qi?"

"Such a large amount of Demon Qi has accumulated beneath this earth!"

Su Bai took a deep breath, increased his Spiritual Power output, and continued downwards.

He was, after all, Nascent Soul Cultivator, and the amount of Demon Qi he was leaking was relatively thin. With the burst of Spiritual Power, his speed of movement increased significantly.

The deeper you go, the higher the concentration of Demon Qi.

When the concentration of Demon Qi reached its peak, a Demon Race Altar, tens of feet wide, appeared in Su Bai's senses from a buried area.

This Demon Race Altar is inscribed with many complex Demon Race runes, and the materials used to create the altar, even from Su Bai's current level of cultivation, can be considered top-tier materials.

Standing before the altar, Su Bai's sword-shaped warning also reached its peak.

The surface of the altar bears the marks of time.

In some areas, even tiny cracks are visible.

At this moment, faint black mist was constantly leaking out from the cracks in these altars.

"So the Demon Qi below is leaking from this altar?"

Fortunately, Su Bai had recently studied a lot about formations, and after a little analysis, he was able to determine that this altar was a sealing altar of the Demon Race.

Unsurprisingly, a terrifyingly powerful Devil Race Cultivator is sealed within this altar.

After much deliberation, and considering the previous actions of the Demon Cultivators, he...

Su Bai felt a chill run down his spine.

Even though he had already become Nascent Soul Cultivator, he couldn't help but curse, "Damn it, these demon bastards actually want to break the seal and release the Devil Race in my territory?"

"Damn, with such a powerful Devil Race emerging, the Spiritual Qi in this realm is now waning. Who can confidently subdue him easily?"

"Devil Race are bloodthirsty and competitive; in short, they like to kill the strong."

"If those demon brats really break the seal, I'm afraid I'll be the first one to die on the Green Ying Spirit Plain!"

Upon realizing this, Su Bai broke out in a cold sweat.

"No, this area needs to be sealed off."

"We must summon Feng Lingchen to stay here permanently."

"No, one Feng Lingchen is not enough. We need to report this to Old Ancestor Heavenly Star and have him send several more Nascent Soul Elder here."

This was no joke, so Su Bai immediately leaped up and returned to the ground.

Su Bai first transferred Feng Lingchen and a group of Elite from the Green Ying War Cultivator Camp over.

"A large Defense Formation Array will need to be built in this area in the future, and I will personally oversee its construction."

"Commander Feng, I'll trouble you to stay here and hold this position for the long term."

"Afterwards, other Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Heavenly Star Alliance will come and take turns guarding this place," Su Bai said solemnly.

Feng Lingchen rarely saw Su Bai with such an expression, so he immediately dared not be negligent and began to arrange for his subordinate Cultivator to guard the place.

"Vice Alliance Leader, what exactly is down there?" Feng Lingchen couldn't help but ask, his curiosity piqued.

"If nothing unexpected happens, it's a Devil Race Cultivator," Su Bai said solemnly.

Feng Lingchen:...

Half a day later, the preparations were completed, and Su Bai's figure swept towards Heavenly Star City.

Before long, they arrived at the top of the Ten Thousand Zhang Star Tower, on the Star Gazing Platform.
