My understanding is incredible: I gained enlightenment and immortality in the Kunlun Demon Kingdom

Chen Ze stood in the center of the village, holding the colorful pagoda tightly in his hand.

Tian Siyao, who was beside her, also took out her jade plate, ready to deal with any unforeseen circumstances.

The surrounding villagers and ghosts exude an eerie atmosphere, as if they live in a dream world isolated from the world.

"The ghosts here are behaving very strangely," Tian Siyao said in a low voice, her face grave.

Chen Ze nodded. "Indeed, what appears to be a tranquil paradise actually hides unspeakable terror."

We need to find out exactly what happened here.

He took a deep breath and raised the colorful pagoda in his hand.

Instantly, the tower emitted a dazzling light, repelling several ghosts that tried to approach.

Then, the Flame Demon slowly walked out of the tower.

His body was enveloped in a layer of scorching flames, as if he were a messenger brought from the depths of hell.

"Flame Demon, I need your help."

The situation here is unclear. I hope you can use your abilities to investigate why the ghosts here are so eerie.

The Flame Demon nodded, as if agreeing with Chen Ze's request.

He turned and walked toward a ghost that was silently observing from a corner, the flames rolling with his steps, creating a suffocating atmosphere of tension.

Seeing this scene, Tian Siyao felt a little more at ease.

She knew that Flame Demon was a trusted helper of Chen Ze and possessed enough strength to investigate the truth of the matter.

The Flame Demon exchanged a few words with the ghost in the corner, and the flames seemed to grow even hotter during their conversation.

Finally, the ghost seemed to be infected by the flames and oppressive aura of the Flame Demon, and slowly walked out.

Chen Ze and Tian Siyao exchanged a glance, both seeing the doubt and expectation in each other's eyes.

“I’ve obtained some information.” Flame Ghost returned to Chen Ze’s side, his tone revealing a hint of seriousness. “The ghosts here were all once residents of the village, but for some reason, their behavior became abnormal.”

I suggest we investigate further to find the root cause.

Chen Ze nodded. "Thank you very much, Flame Demon."

We need to find out the truth behind all of this as soon as possible.

Tian Siyao gripped the jade plate tightly and said to Chen Ze, "Then what should we do?"

Chen Ze glanced at the colorful pagoda, then turned to Tian Siyao: "We're going to the oldest temple in the village. I have a feeling the answer is hidden there."

The two readjusted their equipment and magical artifacts, preparing to head towards the temple.

The Flame Demon transformed into a flame and returned to the Five-Colored Tower.

Holding the Five-Colored Pagoda, Chen Ze followed the Flaming Ghost and Tian Siyao deep into a gloomy forest.

An eerie atmosphere permeated the air, sending chills down one's spine.

"Flame Demon, are you sure the Cold Demon is hiding here?" Chen Ze asked, frowning.

The Flame Demon let out a howl, its fiery body emitting a faint glow, as if it were fighting against the surrounding cold air.

"I'm quite certain, Master."

But the atmosphere here is a bit complicated; the chilling demon must have used some method to conceal its presence.

Holding the jade sword, Tian Siyao said in a low voice, "The atmosphere here is indeed very strange."

I felt like I was being watched by invisible eyes, which was very uncomfortable.

"You two be careful. There might be a barrier here, or other demons lurking," Chen Ze warned warily. The Flame Demon suddenly stopped, its gaze fixed solemnly on a massive stone tablet ahead.

The stone tablet was engraved with some strange symbols, and a cold aura permeated the surroundings.

Tian Siyao gently touched the symbols with the tip of her jade sword, trying to decipher their meaning.

The moment the sword tip touched the symbol, the entire forest seemed to tremble, and an even denser aura of yin energy emanated from it.

"Attention!" Chen Ze shouted suddenly, and the colorful pagoda spun rapidly in his hand, releasing a dazzling light.

Just then, a chill suddenly shot out from behind the stone tablet, heading straight for Tian Siyao. Tian Siyao reacted quickly; as soon as she uttered the incantation, the Nine Revolutions Soul-Splitting Spear instantly appeared in her hand, and she used the tip of the spear to block the chill.

The Flame Demon immediately transformed into a flame, enveloping the chill and attempting to incinerate it.

"You chilling demon, show yourself! Do you think you can buy us time?" Chen Ze shouted sternly.

A cold laugh responded to him, and then a blurry figure slowly emerged from behind the stone tablet.

This is the Ghostly Cold Demon.

"What do you want with me?" The voice of the Ghostly Demon was cold and sharp, as if it came from the Netherworld.

"Stop pretending. You're the one pulling the strings behind all this, aren't you?" Tian Siyao gripped the Nine Revolutions Soul Split Spear tightly, her eyes blazing.

Chen Ze's eyes were firm as he gripped the multicolored pagoda tightly, ready to strike at any moment.

The Flame Demon hovered nearby, its flames blazing, as if ready to strike at any moment.

"Do you think finding me will solve all your problems?" the chilling demon asked sarcastically.

"That depends on your next choice," Chen Ze said coldly.

In the cold, gloomy valley, Chen Ze and Tian Siyao faced the eerie, malevolent aura that seemed to freeze the air.

The chilling demon had three eyes, and its snake-like tongue kept licking its lips, as if it could already smell the impending victory.

"Be careful, this guy is not simple." Tian Siyao gripped the jade sword in her hand tightly. The jade light shimmered, and the sword seemed to be wrapped in a thin mist.

Chen Ze nodded, and a small, multicolored tower suddenly appeared in his hand.

The tower shimmered with different colors of light, as if it were alive.

"Go!" Chen Ze whispered, and the Five-Colored Tower began to spin rapidly, flying towards the Netherworld Demon.

A sharp light flashed in Tian Siyao's eyes, and she then uttered a Qingfeng incantation.

A cool breeze seemed to rise gradually in the air, intertwining with the colorful light of the pagoda.

Just as the cool breeze and the colorful light of the tower were about to collide with the Frost Demon, the Flame Demon suddenly flew out of the tower, transforming into a red flame that quickly surrounded the Frost Demon.

"You think you can trap me like this?" The Cold Demon laughed, but as soon as the laughter subsided, the Flame Demon's flames suddenly became extremely hot, almost burning him to ashes.

"It's not over yet!" Chen Ze's eyes widened, and the multicolored pagoda in his hand emitted a dazzling light once again.

This time, the power contained within the light was even stronger, directly overwhelming the Ghostly Demon and making it difficult for it to breathe.

Tian Siyao was not idle either. She brandished her jade sword, and sword energy instantly condensed into a huge sword array, forming a perfect encirclement with Chen Ze's Five-Colored Tower and the flames of the Blazing Demon.

"Since you're so ungrateful, don't blame me for being impolite!" The Ghostly Demon roared, and the dark power within its body surged out like a tide.

"This is bad!" Tian Siyao frowned, thinking to herself.

"Don't worry, I'm here." Chen Ze gripped the colorful pagoda tightly, a determined expression on his face.

The Flame Demon seemed to sense Chen Ze's determination, and its flames burned even brighter. (End of Chapter)
