Qidian's Seeking the Dao in the Mortal World—fastest updates!
Contrary to Qin Yi's expectations, there were no strange arts ahead.
The underground palace covered quite a large area, but aside from the Demon Refining Array at the entrance being somewhat unusual, the rest was merely where Dong Huazi's trusted Daoists and demons cultivated in secret. In other words, it was their ordinary living quarters, not a place filled with traps at every turn.
On the contrary, there were quite a few spirit-gathering and cultivation arrays, all meant to assist cultivation.
As they advanced, they saw quite a few Daoists fleeing in panic, only for Li Qinglin's men to catch up with them and slaughter every last one.
Many of the rooms were empty. Some demons lay inside nursing their wounds, and the soldiers dispatched them all with a single stroke each.
The lesser demons killed by Minghe's Seven Stars Defense Array had not sent black qi soaring into the heavens like Ye Ling's had simply because they were underground. In truth, ten rooms out of nine had long since been emptied, and all the causes leading here fit together like linked joints.
There was nothing unusual.
Li Qinglin personally captured a high-ranking Daoist and smiled. "Daoist Brother Qingfeng, it has been a while. I trust you have been well."
The Daoist's face turned ashen, and he trembled like chaff in a sieve. As Dong Huazi's confidant, he had often opposed Li Qinglin in the past. This time, he truly had no idea how Li Qinglin intended to deal with him.
"No need to be so nervous." Li Qinglin smiled. "This place is too large, and searching it is tiresome. I must trouble Daoist Brother to lead the way, so that we may pay our respects to the National Teacher sooner."
