Yuwen Chunqiu was lying at the bottom of the cliff where dead branches and hay were piled up, trying hard to gather true energy.

But he received a hard blow from Howl Demon on the chest. Corpse energy and yin energy accumulated in his five internal organs and continued to eat away at his body, making it impossible for him to mobilize any mana.

Moreover, he could clearly sense that Howl Demon had not left, but was standing on the cliff overlooking this place.

The reason why I didn't come down was because I was worried about the desperate blow before I died, and also because of the Demon-Sealing Seal arranged by this cliff.

Roar--

Howl Demon tried to attack with his claws. A golden glow emerged from the valley, and the endless Demon-Sealing Golden Light blocked the attack.

"Howl Demon is here to contain the situation. I wonder if Chang Yuezi sent the message out?"

Howl Demon, Nascent Soul strength.

One step further will lead to Three Calamities Tribulation.

If this kind of monster escapes, it will be a disaster for Donglai's Ten Thousand Isles.

But now that we can't protect ourselves, what if we worry about the future?

As time passed, Yuwen Chunqiu's consciousness gradually became blurred. Corpse spots appeared everywhere on his body.

Soon, he will turn into a zombie.

Ding--

The sound of the sword cut through the Demon-Sealing Golden Light at the bottom of the cliff.

"Interesting, this is the forbidden law established by a senior of the Immortal Family, which actually makes the bottom of the cliff a refuge."

In the hazy moment, Yuwen Chunqiu saw a young man in white clothes with a round face.

The young man walked up to him and didn't know what he had been fed. He clearly felt a vitality running through his body, restoring his corpse-like body.

Jade Sage's true energy circulates in the body, and Yuwen Chunqiu completely regains consciousness.

"Don't move."

Above the head, a young man's playful voice came. "You fell at the bottom of the cliff, you should have some chance encounters. As the saying goes, 'If you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later.'"

The young man recited an article <Five-Dragon Wheel Scripture>.

Yuwen Chunqiu was shocked.

This technique seems to come from the same source as the one I consulted at Mr. Bodhi's place.

He closed his eyes and concentrated, and circulated the five elements of essence in his body according to <Five-Dragon Scripture>.

The liver is wood, the heart is fire, the spleen is earth, the lungs are metal, and the kidneys are water.

A small dragon with no horns and four claws emerges from each of the five internal organs, forming a circle with each other, nourishing the five qi in the chest.

This is my road to the Golden Core Realm.

Yuwen Chunqiu had an epiphany in his heart and realized the phenomenon of five dragons forming a wheel. Unknowingly, his understanding of "Five Elements Dao Method" improved a lot.

Wukong saw the opportunity and gave Yuwen Chunqiu a hard knock on the back.

The corpse energy and death energy were oppressed by the anger of Creation, and were uprooted bit by bit by the dragon phase of the Five Elements. Then they were completely separated by the blow of Wukong.

"Wow--"

Vomiting out a mouthful of black blood, Yuwen Chunqiu removed all the poison from the corpse.

Phew--

Samadhi True Fire burned the black blood, Wukong destroyed the black blood, and looked around. "The corpse energy has been removed, so tell me about your experience. My name is Wukong, and I studied under the ancestor Bodhi. The master said that you will be in trouble during this trip, so he asked me to help."

"Mr. Bodhi?"

Yuwen Chunqiu was surprised.

He quickly stood up and thanked me, "I asked for leave to go out, but my husband was not angry with me for giving up halfway, but instead sent someone to help me. I'm really ashamed."

Later, he talked about his experience with Chang Yuezi.

Chang Yuezi has rich exploration experience, and led Yuwen Chunqiu through the fairy and demon battlefield at the top of the mountain to Golden Court at the foot of the mountain.

Yuwen Chunqiu recalled, "It was a palace complex hollowed out of the mountain, located on the land directly above Spirit Vein."

"I'm not interested in Golden Court. I'm more concerned about the origin of that Howl Demon. Who turned it into a corpse after death?"

Yuwen Chunqiu shook his head. "Not sure. We only know that it suddenly appeared when it was close to Golden Court. But it seems that it can't enter Golden Court, and can only wander in a certain area inside the mountain cave."

The round-faced boy looked at the cliff and then at the Demon-Subduing Talisman basket on the mountain wall.

With a snap of the fingers, Yuwen Chunqiu was lifted up by the auspicious clouds, and Wukong walked forward along the bottom of the cliff.

"Wait, I can move."

"Your injury is too serious. My 'Hundred-Flower Spirit-Matrix Pill' can only provide temporary relief. Just wait and see."

This is a lie.

Wukong Incarnation was shocked to realize that Howl Demon was evil. After communicating with Hengshou through the air, he hurriedly returned to the main body and took Fu Henghua and three drops of Essence Blood to condense it into an elixir.

He practices Great Dao of Creation, and his blood contains abundant vitality, making him the nemesis of the zombie demon series.

Use a drop of blood to help Yuwen Chunqiu suppress the corpse's energy and revive it.

Now Wukong still has two drops of blood in his hand.

Yuwen Chunqiu sat on the auspicious cloud, looking at the Demon-Subduing Talisman talisman on the mountain wall. From where he landed to now, the two of them walked a mile, but the talismans on the wall were endless.

Wukong secretly speculated that it seems to be getting further and further away from the Scarlet Departure Divine Palace.

When he led Yuwen Chunqiu out of the bottom of the cliff, he saw an endless plain in front of him. In the distance, he could faintly see a broken and collapsed gate.

"We are now in front of Nine-Dragon Mountain--get it, Howl Demon cannot leave this mountain."

Wukong and Yuwen Chunqiu turned around, and behind them was a stretch of rolling mountain peaks.

Ancient pines and cypresses are scattered all over the precipitous peaks.

If you look carefully, you will see that there are nine strange mountains in total, like nine-headed dragons coiling around the earth. At the bottom of each mountain, there is a gate.

"Nine-Gate Golden Court."

Wukong recalls the information obtained from the memory of female Heavenly Demon.

Mystic Palace Golden Court, the residence of the emperor and empress.

Devil Palace called this place Myriad-Illusion Island and Nine-Dragon Mountain. It was originally the training place for Empress Empress Xuan.

The base of Nine-Dragon Mountain is where Golden Court is located. Later, relying on Nine-Dragon Mountain, the magic path built Myriad-Illusion Cave. Cave after cave was opened on the top of the mountain to facilitate the magic cultivators to land from the air and worship Golden Court from the top of the mountain.

Because Myriad Illusions Demon Cavern sank, the main entrance of Golden Court is still buried in the Relict Continent, so Hengshou, Yuwen Chunqiu, etc. all came down from the tunnel at the top of the mountain.

As Yuwen Chunqiu fell to the bottom of the cliff, it happened to reach the base of Nine-Dragon Mountain, the original ground of Myriad-Illusion Island.

The two of them looked outside and could see the gorgeous clouds turning into a barrier, sealing off the entire Kowloon Island.

Golden Court of Empress Xuan.

Heng Hua fell into deep thought.

He once heard his mother mention it.

Empress Xuan died very early. After his death, the nine gates of Golden Court were closed. Demon Emperor Jiang turned Golden Court into his wife's mausoleum, prohibiting outsiders from approaching.

Later, the magic cultivator relied on Myriad-Illusion Cave above Golden Court for transformation, and Immortal-Demon War also occurred on Myriad-Illusion Cave.

But right now, the Scarlet Departure Palace I am looking for is still at the bottom of Golden Court.

To go to the Scarlet Departure Palace, you must first pass Golden Court.

After thinking about it, he thought of Howl Demon.

"Yuwen, when you come into contact with that Howl Demon, can you tell whether it is a boy or a girl?"

"This..."

Yuwen Chunqiu shook his head.

He only cares about escaping, so how can he check the gender of Howl Demon?

"Brother Wukong, are we safe here? Do you want to join my fellow disciples?"

"Howl Demon is locked in the mountain road Demon Cavern on the fourth peak from the left. You fell from the cliff and happened to land at the junction of the fourth and third peaks. Due to the Demon-Sealing Seal of the immortal masters, it cannot come down to eat you."

Wukong saw the Taiji Talisman formation carved on the main entrance of the fourth peak.

Three hundred and sixty golden talismans firmly locked the door.

"This is Golden Talisman Path's 'Demon-Sealing Soul-Locking Taiji Formation'. If my guess is correct, the passage from this mountain peak to the main peak and Golden Court has been blocked. Howl Demon cannot get out, and can only wait for someone to enter this Demon Cavern to serve as blood food."

Yuwen Chunqiu is relieved to hear that Howl Demon cannot come out.

"Don't be too happy too early. If a blind monk breaks in and feeds Howl Demon blood to restore its strength and activate Three Calamities Tribulation, the seal will naturally be broken."

Suddenly, he seemed to find something.

Walking to the corner on the right side of the gate, he saw a jade bone that had lost its spiritual power, and densely packed small words carved on the rocks.

The general explanation is that he is the Daoist master of Central Heaven Golden Talisman Path, who died in Immortal-Demon War. After death, because there were corpse demons doing magic in Demon Cavern, the corpses of the monks of the immortal and demon realms were transformed into zombies. As they fought with each other, many people cultivated Ghost-Drought Body and restored their memories of their lives.

After that, several Ghost Ba who belonged to the Immortal Path practiced Jade Immortal Method. Several Ghost Ba who belonged to the Demonic Path practiced Howl Demon Method under the leadership of the Corpse King.

Not long after, the Corpse King devoured several Ghost Bas from the Demonic Way and evolved into Howl Demon. However, several Ghost Bas from the Immortal Way realized that something was wrong, and the three Ghost Bas headed by Golden Talisman Dao Master tried their best to seal him in the fourth peak.

When Yuwen Chunqiu saw the posthumous note, he couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect that Immortal-Demon War ended so long ago. There is another battle between immortals and demons in Myriad Illusions Demon Cavern."

Wukong looked even weirder when he saw the identity of the Corpse King mentioned in the suicide note.

"He was reincarnated and reborn as Devil Palace as the master of the palace. Now he has transformed into Howl Demon in his previous life, but he also retains a memory of himself. If we were to face each other in this past life, who would be my true self?"

But then I thought about it. With this devil's ferocious character, wouldn't a fight start right away?

"This place is not safe, let's leave first."

Before leaving, Wukong did not forget to collect the jade bones and planned to send them back to Golden Talisman Path.

Hengshou and Shu Tianci have been wandering around Demon Cavern for three hours, and there are not many talismans and elixirs left with them. Currently, they are only moving around Demon Cavern, and they have not even found the correct passage.

After adding up, the two returned from the entrance.

At this time, Myriad Illusions Demon Cavern climbed another hundred feet, revealing more caves below.

When the two came out, Hengshou happened to see Yuwen Chunqiu coming out of another cave. Beside him, there was a very familiar round-faced boy.

Wukong felt something in his heart, made a face at Hengshou, turned around and disappeared.

"Sure enough, the young master personally took action. Could he be planning to intervene in the confrontation between Wuma Fang and Chang Yuezi?"

Just as I was thinking about it, an explosion occurred on the last hill of Nine-Dragon Mountain.

Chang Yuezi holds a flying sword and detonates hundreds of thousands of Three Mysterious Talismans, blasting Wuma Fang and Tan Yufeng apart.

Tan Yufeng accidentally fell into the cliff without paying attention.

Chang Yuezi sneered twice, ignored the frightened and angry Wuma Fang, and directly caught up with Tan Yufeng.

Wuma Fang was about to catch up, but Yuwen Chunqiu hurried over.

"Senior brother, please be patient. There are some things that we should sit down and talk about slowly. You might as well consider the suggestion I made at the beginning? Give her a False Core later to fool the oath. Don't damage the harmony between our senior brothers."
