Demon Saint Graveyard
Being so far apart, the two could not make out their faces.
But at this moment, the one who could come to Abyss Heaven Lock must undoubtedly be that young man.
"Hao'er..."
Ji Qingqing's eyes were filled with tears. She wanted to follow Abyss Heaven Lock down to greet him, but the Family Head's pardon had not yet been delivered, and going down the island without permission would be considered an escape.
She had waited for over a decade, and she didn't want to cause any more trouble.
The two leaned on each other, watching the two figures climbing.
Meanwhile, on the Abyss Heaven Lock.
Holding the Sky Gazing Mirror, Li Hao saw two figures standing Abyss Heaven Stele on the island, which was used to bind the Abyss Heaven Lock. One of them was his mother Ji Qingqing.
The other person was focusing their energy on the chains, and the excitement and tears in their eyes made him quicken his pace.
Sensing Li Hao's increased speed, Ji Yunyue smiled wryly. On the Abyss Heaven Lock, where power was restricted and climbing could only be done with physical strength, Li Hao's Movement Method was actually faster than hers.
Just as the two sped off, a strange feeling suddenly swept through Li Hao's mind.
As if sensing something, he looked down.
The Abyss beneath his feet was pitch black, devoid of any light. But as he gazed into it, a crimson light seemed to emerge from the Abyss.
Li Hao was slightly taken aback, blinked, and wondered if he was seeing things.
Before he could focus his gaze again, a terrifying shock suddenly emanated from the Abyss.
With a loud bang!
The entire Abyss was shaking, the cliffs near the Wild Sea trembled, and the three Abyss Heaven Lock shook violently.
At the same time, the nearby Wild Sea seemed to be shaken, and the originally calm sea surface suddenly surged with waves.
"What?"
Ji Yunyue stopped in her tracks, gripped the chains tightly, and looked on in astonishment.
A crimson light emerged from the Abyss, growing ever stronger. Suddenly, a massive tentacle shot out and wrapped itself around their Abyss Heaven Lock.
The tentacles, seemingly a thousand feet long, coiled around the Abyss Heaven Lock, their immense force nearly causing the entire Heaven Imprisoning Island to collapse.
This sudden and violent tremor alarmed everyone on Heaven Imprisoning Island.
They were either asleep, on the verge of death, or engrossed in secretly practicing their Cultivation Method, but at this moment they were all startled by this violent tremor.
Heaven Imprisoning Island rocked violently, like a small boat.
"What's going on?!"
"Heaven Imprisoning Island is about to collapse?"
"Look! The island is falling!"
On Heaven Imprisoning Island, the dozen or so criminals were shocked. Their eyes, which had previously seemed lifeless and droopy, widened as they rushed out of their respective cave abode to the edge of Heaven Imprisoning Island.
The criminals were horrified when they saw the scarlet tentacles wrapped and dragging around one of the Abyss Heaven Lock.
What is that?
"Demon? How could that be!"
"This size, this Aura, my god, is there really such Demon guarding this Abyss?!"
"Could it be that someone escaped from prison and angered this Demon guard?"
These criminals had been there for varying lengths of time and knew very little about Heaven Imprisoning Island. They were all horrified, as they had never heard of such a thing before.
That Abyss, it is said, was a pit created by the Progenitor's punch, and its depth is unfathomable.
But now, Demon are crawling out of it?
A ragged, emaciated old man, dressed like Beggar, lay prostrate on the edge of Heaven Imprisoning Island, staring at the scarlet tentacles. Shock flashed in his eyes, followed by a burst of laughter:
"Haha, Ji Family has imprisoned all the Heavenly Prodigy with Sacred Bone here now?"
"They deserve to be destroyed, the Ji Family deserves to be destroyed..."
He laughed loudly, but tears streamed down his face.
Many criminals recognized the old man and called him the Old Madman. He was a criminal who had been imprisoned here for a very long time, and he was crazy all day long, saying things that were incomprehensible. No one wanted to talk to him.
Abyss Heaven Stele, Ji Qingqing and Ning Ma were nearly thrown off Heaven Imprisoning Island by the sudden tremor.
The two hurriedly grabbed the Abyss Heaven Stele to steady themselves, only to see the Heaven Imprisoning Island plummeting and shaking violently. The island's own buoyancy was pushing it upwards, while the tentacles that were pulling the Abyss Heaven Lock were pulling it down, causing the entire island to tilt.
"What is that?"
Ji Qingqing also saw the scarlet tentacles on the chains; they were so large that they could be seen clearly even from thousands of miles away.
She was utterly shocked; she had never heard of such terrifying Demon dwelling in this Abyss since the beginning of time.
Ning Ma was equally horrified, her face turning pale, unaware of the reason.
At that moment, on another Abyss Heaven Lock, Li Tiangang and Ji Yunqing were also startled by the sudden tremor and almost lost their grip on the chain, nearly falling off.
Upon seeing the tentacles entwined around another Abyss Heaven Lock in the distance, Ji Yunqing's pupils constricted, and she exclaimed in horror, "What are those things?"
He had never heard of it before and found it unbelievable.
"Is it the monster guarding this place?" Li Tiangang's expression changed, and he hurriedly asked.
Ji Yunqing did not answer, a trace of fear appearing in her eyes. She sensed the power of the Great Dao contained in those tentacles, and realized that the Ji Family could not possibly tame Demon of this level.
"Run!"
Abyss Heaven Lock, Li Hao saw the tendrils' movements and was horrified. He immediately unleashed his full power, pulling Ji Yunyue forward.
Ji Yunyue also realized what was happening, her face turning pale. The tentacles had wrapped around the end of the chain, leaving her with no way out but to escape to Heaven Imprisoning Island.
She immediately unleashed her full speed, employing the Ji Family Movement Technique to catch up with Li Hao.
As the two sprinted at full speed, several tentacles shot out from the Abyss, grabbing all three chains.
The three chains pulled downwards simultaneously, restoring the bowl-shaped, tilted Heaven Imprisoning Island to its balance, but it then plummeted rapidly.
From the Abyss, a colossal crimson shadow, its body resembling Blood Lotus, gradually emerged.
Those thousand-foot-long tentacles all extended from behind the Blood Lotus. In the middle of the Blood Lotus, there was a huge human face, the face of a Peerless Beauty with closed eyes and extremely fair skin.
The woman's red lips were slightly closed, her eyes were peacefully shut, and her expression seemed to be that of someone sleeping soundly.
But this stunningly beautiful face was thousands of feet in diameter, and as the Blood Lotus rose, it kept pushing towards him. Despite its exquisite appearance, it gave people a sense of dread.
More and more tentacles shot out from behind the Blood Lotus, entangled the chains, and dragged the Heaven Imprisoning Island in the sky straight down.
"That is Wenren Ji, the Demon Sage recorded in our ancestors' notes!"
On Heaven Imprisoning Island, some elderly criminals were stunned and speechless when they saw the giant face of the Blood Lotus.
"Blood Lotus, demonic face, Purple Soul-Seizing Eyes —one glance can steal a person's soul, two glances can rob them of their Dao Heart, and three glances can cause even those Dao Comprehender to perish!"
"This, this is the Demon Sage!!"
Several elderly criminals seemed to be going insane, almost suffocating.
As the two Abyss Heaven Lock, Ji Yunqing and Ji Yunyue both recognized Wenren Ji at the same time. They were so shocked that their faces were contorted, and they felt as if their souls were about to leave their bodies.
This is Demon Sage!
An existence comparable to the Progenitor!
"Legend has it that the Progenitor suppressed all the Demon Sage, and wasn't Wenren Ji supposed to have been killed by the Progenitor? How come she's here?"
"Run! Run!"
Ji Yunyue and Ji Yunqing were both terrified. They were both at the Great Peace Dao Realm, but in front of this Demon Sage, they were no different from children. With a single breath, he could probably kill them.
"This is Demon Sage! Run!"
Ji Yunyue hurriedly called out to Li Hao.
Li Hao's heart skipped a beat. A Demon Sage —no wonder he felt that terrifying sensation, almost numbing his entire body and rendering him unable to move.
The two sprinted forward as fast as they could.
The Abyss Heaven Lock was pulled and shook repeatedly, making a metallic clanging sound, but the chain was extremely tough and did not break.
The Peerless Beauty on the Blood Lotus slightly opened her mouth at this moment. Her Perfection shaped, crimson lips split open, revealing a mouth filled with countless sharp spikes that led into the pitch-black depths.
A powerful suction force poured into their mouths, and Li Hao and Ji Yunyue felt as if their bodies were entangled in countless threads, making it extremely difficult for them to climb upwards.
On Heaven Imprisoning Island, many criminals were terrified at the sight.
"It... it's going to eat the whole island!"
"Quickly, quickly push down the Abyss Heaven Stele! I'd rather ascend to heaven than die in its mouth. I've heard that if a Demon Sage kills someone there, they don't even have a chance to reincarnate."
Many of the criminals panicked and rushed Past the various Abyss Heaven Stele.
The old man, known as the Old Madman, lay on the ground and laughed loudly:
"It's no use, it's no use. Wenren Ji was once the demon pet of the Progenitor, but she attacked him when Sage Entry Progenitor was suppressed by Progenitor."
"It must be that the person who came possessed Sacred Bone; the Aura of Sage emanating from them stimulated it, causing it to Awakening from the Abyss."
"Haha, I never imagined that the Progenitor would bury such a Demon Sage here. This entire Wild Sea is its tomb..."
In the midst of the chaos, no one paid any attention to his words. The dozen or so people dispersed and rushed toward the three Abyss Heaven Stele.
Upon hearing these people's words, Ji Qingqing's expression changed drastically, and she angrily shouted, "Stop! Who dares to do this!"
She summoned her Divine Soul, stood in mid-air, radiating powerful Divine Radiance, and blocked the criminals who were trying to overturn the Abyss Heaven Stele.
The Abyss Heaven Lock cannot be severed, but the Abyss Heaven Stele, buried on Heaven Imprisoning Island, can be moved. Thus, without the Abyss Heaven Lock to hold it back, even if Heaven Imprisoning Island ascends into the sky and dies from the scorching Scorching Sun Sacred Fire, it will still have a sliver of a chance to be reborn.
"Get out of our way, don't block our way!"
Someone roared and tried to rush towards Ji Qingqing.
But Ji Qingqing's body was adorned with Divine Radiance, and a long sword as cold as frost appeared in her hand, which she then slashed out with.
With a loud bang, the Sword Qi, like a rainbow, struck the man, tearing him apart and causing him to retreat.
She was Ji Family Prodigy in her youth, though not the most outstanding. But now that she's reached a certain age, after years of cultivation, she had already reached the Unique Skill Realm before being imprisoned.
Having only been on Heaven Imprisoning Island for less than two years, his internal strength was almost completely depleted. Now, enraged, he unleashed a powerful aura.
The other criminals, seeing the Divine Might displayed by Ji Qingqing, all changed their expressions drastically and said Anger:
"Do you want us all to die?!"
"Exactly! If you want to die, don't drag us down with you! We want to be reborn as humans!"
These criminals were Anger.
Ji Qingqing ignored them, her Divine Soul soaring to the sky above the island. Seeing the criminals rushing towards the other two Abyss Heaven Steles, she focused her Killing Aura in her eyes, manipulated her Divine Sword to slash, and forced those people back.
"As long as I'm here, nobody can touch me!"
Ji Qingqing, with her back against the Abyss Heaven Stele, her body radiating Divine Flame like Descent God Daughter, spoke Anger.
"You, you're absolutely unreasonable!"
Many criminals were intimidated and stopped by her, leaving them both shocked and furious.
