The Demon-Sealing Divine Milk outside the formation was also a substance from the Upper Realm. It served both to prevent other cultivators from accidentally entering this place and releasing the demon, and to replenish the demon-sealing formation's spiritual qi so that it would never go out. After enough years, the demon's demonic qi would naturally be exhausted, and it would perish.
When Li Xiaoya pressed him about his identity, the demon slyly claimed that he was a Spirit Communion Stage cultivator. Having discovered this deposit of Demon-Sealing Divine Milk, he had dived down to investigate, only to find himself unable to leave. He had been trapped here for tens of thousands of years.
"You're the Spirit Communion Stage cultivator who came down here and never got out?" Li Xiaoya was astonished. When they entered Spiritlight Lake, the Golden-Armored Cultivator had mentioned a Spirit Communion Stage cultivator who had descended and never returned. A stone monument had even been erected to warn later generations. Could this be that very man? Had he really lived for tens of thousands of years? Wouldn't that make him an even older bastard than a ten-thousand-year-old tortoise?
"Yes! I'm that Spirit Communion Stage cultivator! This old man has been trapped here for so many years. I never imagined anyone would still know about it!" The demon had merely concocted a lie to fool Li Xiaoya. He had never expected that a Spirit Communion Stage cultivator really had come down and failed to escape, much less that Li Xiaoya knew about it. He seized the opportunity and claimed the identity.
"Ah! I had no idea you were a Spirit Communion Stage cultivator, Senior. Forgive my lack of respect!" Li Xiaoya hurriedly said. "Alas! If even someone with your cultivation couldn't get out, it looks like I won't
