On the road.
Tao Kun asked in a low voice, "What about the Blood Robe Gate?"
"After today, the Blood Robe Gate will cease to exist in this world," the woman replied faintly, her eyes flashing red as she scanned Tao Kun. "This is a one-time thing, and it won't happen again."
"Yes."
Cold sweat beaded on Tao Kun's forehead.
The moment the red light swept over him, he felt a suffocating sensation, as if he had been targeted by a primordial beast.
The Blood Robe Gate's exposure was a foregone conclusion.
Next, the Heavenly Realm Division of Jizhou and the major sects would undoubtedly launch a full-scale assault on the Blood Robe Gate.
He had been foolish enough to consider rescuing them.
No demon would favor a foolish slave.
Having realized everything, Tao Kun kept his mouth shut and followed the woman, disappearing into the depths of Yandang Mountain.
After setting fire to the corpses of the Blood Robe Gate disciples, everyone's gaze turned back to Wei Qing.
Tantai Yue spoke first, "In the Central Hall, are there any clues on how to get out?"
Wei Qing was about to shake his head.
"I know about that."
Yun Tianheng's voice suddenly rang out.
"That's great, Brother Tian. What should we do next?" Wei Qing rejoiced inwardly.
"You all head directly to the Heavenly Demon's seal. There, they forcibly opened a teleportation array leading to the outside world. You can leave through this array, but..."
Yun Tianheng paused here, not continuing.
"Is there some danger?"
"Danger? Not exactly. However, to activate that array, it requires the blood and soul power of demons as a medium to open it," Yun Tianheng said with a slight shake of his head.
"This..."
Wei Qing was momentarily speechless.
This requirement would not be difficult to meet in the outside world.
But where could he find a demon now?
"As for soul power, I have my methods. For demon blood, the blood of those traitors that haven't turned to ash yet should work," Luo Liuli's voice echoed from the depths of his sea of consciousness.
"Junior understands."
"Wei Qing?"
Seeing that Wei Qing hadn't answered her question and was instead standing there in a daze, Tantai Yue spoke again.
When Wei Qing snapped back to reality, he flashed to the side of the burning pyre.
He swung the Soul Severing Blade, severing Qin Yang's right arm from the corpse pile. Purple blood slowly flowed from the wound, emitting a corrosive "sizzling" sound as it dripped onto the ground.
"Wei Qing, what are you doing?"
Tantai Yue watched this scene, looking at Wei Qing, who held the severed arm, with great confusion.
Wei Qing pointed at the still-dripping purple blood. "This is one of the keys for us to get out."
"A way to get out?"
"We can really get out."
At these words, everyone present was shaken, and their gazes focused on Wei Qing.
"At the place where the Heavenly Demon is sealed, there is an array connected to the outside world. To activate it, two things are needed: demon blood and demon soul power."
"We don't have pure demon blood, but the half-demon blood from these human traitors should work," Wei Qing said, lifting the severed arm. Purple blood dripped slowly from the wound onto the ground.
"As for the soul power needed, I will have a way once we reach the seal."
"In that case, let's not delay. We should depart."
"Let's go."
"We're finally getting out."
After Wei Qing revealed the method, the previously oppressive atmosphere immediately became lively.
The group followed Wei Qing through the ruins. The closer they got to the Heavenly Demon's seal, the denser the demonic energy in the air became.
"We're here."
Wei Qing stopped before a stone platform covered in blood vines.
He swept the Soul Severing Blade across, and the severed vines sprayed out foul-smelling liquid, revealing an array carved with ancient runes beneath.
In the sunken center of the array was a blood groove shaped like a palm.
The severed arm was pressed into the blood groove, and purple blood flowed along the rune-etched channels. Wherever the blood flowed, the runes turned a shocking blood-red!
The next moment.
The entire stone platform suddenly sank! A huge crack split open in the ground, and four bronze pillars erupted from the earth.
Each bronze pillar was carved with a ferocious demon.
As the four demons opened their eyes, their scarlet pupils flashed with a bloodthirsty light.
Four terrifying demonic auras surged like a tide. These black mists condensed in the air into ferocious ghost faces, emitting piercing shrieks.
"Hold your minds!"
Wei Qing roared, holding the Soul Slaying Blade horizontally in front of him. Golden light emanated from the blade, splitting the oncoming demonic aura in two.
The crystal ball in Nangong Ruyan's hand lit up, and ice-blue True Essence formed a barrier around everyone. The demonic aura struck the ice barrier, emitting a "sizzling" corrosive sound.
"Senior."
As the words fell, a red light flew out from Wei Qing's brow, condensing into a hazy, ethereal figure in the air.
Luo Liuli did not wish to expose her existence; only Wei Qing could see her figure present.
With a slight lift of her delicate hand, a terrifying suction force penetrated the Heavenly Demon sealing array a hundred meters away and plunged straight into the ground.
"Who dares to spy on this king!"
The earth trembled violently, and the seal erupted with monstrous demonic energy. An enraged roar made everyone's eardrums ache, and the sand and stones of the entire wasteland rustled and jumped.
"Qingzi, what's going on?" Jun Wushang and the others' expressions changed drastically. They drew their weapons one after another, "Could it be that the Heavenly Demon is about to break free?"
"Noisy."
Luo Liuli snorted coldly. Her slender fingers suddenly clenched, and the suction force instantly surged. A heart-wrenching scream echoed from within the seal: "Ah—! Luo Liuli, how could it be you... back then, you should have..."
The voice abruptly stopped, as if it had been choked off.
Luo Liuli's gaze sharpened, piercing through layers of formations to lock directly onto the Silver Moon Demon King deep within the seal.
The latter's scales stood on end, its three demon eyes trembling wildly—it would never forget that Luo Liuli had severed half of its true body with a single sword two hundred years ago!
If it hadn't been for another Demon Emperor saving it at that time, it would have long since perished in its hands.
"It seems you know something." Luo Liuli's lips curved slightly, but her smile didn't reach her eyes. "Very good."
"No... I don't know anything."
The Silver Moon Demon King felt as if it had fallen into an ice cave, shaking its head desperately in denial.
None of the demons targeted by this female killing god back then had managed to leave a complete corpse.
It truly wished it could tear its own cursed mouth apart; why did it have to speak so much in front of this malevolent star!
Luo Liuli said coldly, "Soul power. Do you do it yourself, or do I?"
"I... I'll do it myself."
The Silver Moon, once a renowned Heavenly Demon King, now appeared as docile as a mouse before a cat in front of Luo Liuli.
"Hiss..."
The Silver Moon's sharp claws pressed against its brow, and a wisp of silver-gray mist was slowly drawn out.
The extraction process was clearly excruciating. Its massive body convulsed continuously, and its three demon eyes were bloodshot.
"Is... is that enough?"
The Silver Moon lay weakly on the ground, no longer possessing any of its former Heavenly Demon majesty.
