Chapter 849: Demonic Soul Disrupts the Situation and the Void Cave Rises

"Xiu Qi?!"

Jiang Mingzhi and others were shocked and wanted to get closer to check the situation.

But just as he withdrew his hand and took a step, he heard a loud bang from the magic cave, and the originally dormant demonic energy showed signs of reviving.

Their expressions changed again, and they had no choice but to turn around and use their magic power again, not daring to stop for fear of wasting all their previous efforts.

During this back and forth, Jiang Xiuqi remained motionless. Apart from the deathly aura surrounding his body, there was no other change.

Jiang Xiuping asked in surprise, "Uncle San, could it be that my brother is really involved with the demonic cultivators?"

When the jade box shattered just now, others might not have noticed it, but he saw a strange blood-red light with turbid air rising into the sky. It didn't look like a Taoist method at all, but more like the "Three Lives Blood God Pill" mentioned by the demon cultivator.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Jiang Mingzhi glared, his beard trembling slightly, and said in a deep voice: "You guys continue to use magic to suppress it, I'll go and take a look..."

He withdrew his magic power, nodded to everyone, and then cautiously moved towards where Jiang Xiuqi was.

In fact, Jiang Xiuping was not the only one who saw the bloody light just now, he also made some discoveries.

But nothing is absolute. As a disciple of the Jiang family, Jiang Xiuqi cannot be arbitrarily judged even if the crowd is full of family members...

The two were only a hundred steps apart, but now they seemed extremely far away.

After getting a little closer, Jiang Mingzhi separated his spiritual sense and extended it over, but found that the deathly aura surrounding Jiang Xiuqi could actually hinder his spiritual sense from exploring.

He frowned and threw out another ray of spiritual light with his backhand, but the result was the same. It was still blocked by the invisible death energy and could not get close to him.

At such a critical moment, he didn't dare to risk getting closer. After thinking for a while, he took out an exquisite golden talisman from his sleeve.

This talisman was originally intended for him to use against the demonic cultivators. It could stimulate spiritual inspiration and lock away demonic energy.

Since Jiang Xiuqi seemed to have been attacked by a demon cultivator, it would be a good idea for him to use this talisman to help him stabilize the situation temporarily, and then find out the cause and prescribe the right medicine later.

Thinking of this, he threw the talisman, which flew above Jiang Xiuqi's head. Then, a golden light flashed, and a torrent of inspiration suddenly poured out of it, pouring down towards the figure below like a waterfall.

Perhaps this method was effective, the deathly aura around Jiang Xiuqi gradually dissipated, and his eyelids trembled slightly. After a few breaths, his eyes quietly opened.

"Xiu Qi?"

Jiang Mingzhi was delighted and looked over, only to meet the gaze of Jiang Xiuqi who had just opened his eyes.

But just this one glance made his pupils shrink suddenly.

Sinister and cruel, the feeling Jiang Xiuqi gave him at this moment was completely different from before!

"Who are you? How dare you harass me, the Jiang family's Daozi?!"

Since he started practicing Taoism, what methods has he not seen?
So almost in an instant, he understood the reason.

His nephew had clearly been invaded by a demonic spirit, causing him to lose his five senses and thus be possessed and temporarily controlled by the demonic spirit...

Even though the grey-robed demon cultivator had the help of a secret treasure elixir, he still suffered huge losses in suppressing Jiang Xiuqi's soul. Now there was only a remnant of his soul left, so how could he have the leisure to respond?

In an instant, "Jiang Xiuqi" soared into the sky, his whole body shook violently, and endless gray mist rolled out from his robe sleeves. In a moment, it spread in all directions.

Jiang Mingzhi looked up and saw fog filling the sky, as if he had entered the underworld. It was dark and gloomy, even the location of the magic cave was obscured by it. He could not see anything clearly except a gray mist, and even his spiritual sense could not explore within a radius of a hundred feet.

He was shocked and guessed what the other party was thinking in an instant.

"Fourth brother, Shuhei, be careful!"

He roared, and at the same time, he waved his sleeves, and his body turned into a gray rainbow light, rushing towards where his tribesmen were.

But before he could see the tribesmen, he heard a cry of surprise from the front: "Uncle San, save me...ah!"

He gritted his teeth and rushed forward, but what he saw was Jiang Xiuping, whose head and body had been separated, while Jiang Xiuqi, who was controlled by the evil spirit, had disappeared.

Fortunately, although Jiang Xiuping's Taoist body was damaged, his Nascent Soul escaped in time. Seeing his third uncle coming, he hurriedly approached and begged for shelter.

Jiang Mingzhi originally wanted to ask about the demon soul's movements, but seeing that he was trembling and frightened, he had to give up the idea and waved his hand to send him away.

At this moment, a rumbling sound arose from the fog again, accompanied by the angry shouts of the Jiang clan members: "How dare you, you thief! Kill him!"

"Fourth brother?"

Jiang Mingzhi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he raised his head and shouted, "Fourth brother, where is the demon soul now?"

"I have already pinned the demon soul, my brother, cast a spell on me!"

A shout was heard from the fog. Jiang Mingzhi got the direction and suddenly became ruthless. He jumped up and flew into the sky. In an instant, he pulled out a Taoist sword from the void and slashed it towards the front with all his strength!
In a moment, the sword light stretched out for thousands of feet, and countless clear sword shadows floated, striking directly into the depths of the mist.

But at this moment, another urgent shout came from behind him on the left side: "Brother, don't take action, it's the evil spirit that is deceiving you!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mingzhi's face suddenly darkened. He knew he had been tricked, and without giving it much thought, he quickly stopped his moves.

Although the Dao Sword disappeared, the sword light it emitted was still shining, and it slashed heavily on a figure, colliding with its protective mysterious light, making an extremely piercing and sharp sound.
The Jiang family's Taoism is famous for plundering the enemy's spiritual energy, especially this Taoist sword technique. As long as you cut a small gap in the enemy's hand, you can continue to plunder the opponent's spiritual energy and feed it back to yourself, becoming more and more courageous.

In a moment, there was a "puff" sound, and the figure was finally defeated. A column of blood spurted into the sky, and he flew backwards like a kite with a broken string.

Jiang Mingzhi rushed out quickly, caught up with him and stabilized him. Suddenly, his eyes were bloodshot and he was extremely angry.

The person in front of him was none other than his seventh brother Jiang Minggao.

At this time, he was already seriously injured and dying, and he almost lost his life at the hands of his own family...

The fog was still flowing, and Jiang Mingzhi suppressed his anger and settled his seventh brother.

In just a short moment, they lost two Nascent Soul fighters. If they did not find a way to adapt, they would be defeated one by one by the evil spirit sooner or later.

He looked around and realized that this mist was actually a wisp of primordial chaos energy. This energy was the source of his Jiang family's inheritance. Therefore, if he used his clan's profound skills to explore it, he would be limited by it...

Jiang Mingzhi's mind raced as he took out a three-inch small flag with thunder and lightning surrounding it. He recited a spell and threw the flag into the air. Then he heard bursts of muffled thunder that spread over dozens of miles and heavy rain fell on his head.

The rain formed a curtain, and actually stirred up ripples in the fog.

When hit by this torrent, the fog in the sky surged like the sea, churning and boiling for a long time.

Jiang Mingzhi closed his eyes and sensed something unusual. He immediately shouted and a sword light flew out. It instantly turned into thirty-two light wheels, which then flew like arrows and dispersed in front.

In an instant, rumbling sounds rang out in front one after another, continuously and seemingly endlessly, successfully forcing a figure to appear.

A fierce look flashed in Jiang Mingzhi's eyes, and a ray of dark light suddenly rose from behind him. In the blink of an eye, he rushed in front of the other party.

This method is exactly the most famous Taoist magic of the Jiang family, "Xuanhuang Yiqi Shangyuan Jieguang". With his late-stage cultivation, even a perfect cultivator would not dare to withstand it.

At this moment, he no longer cared whether this action would hurt Jiang Xiuqi. If the outcome was not decided, the injuries of the tribesmen would be a small matter. If the suppression of the magic cave was delayed, they would really regret it.

Mohun had not expected him to be so decisive, but since the other party no longer cared about Jiang Xiuqi, how could he be restricted by this?

Thinking of this, he laughed wildly and shook his magic power. Behind him, a dark gray light of tribulation also rose. Without dodging or avoiding, it clashed with the same source of Taoism! The next moment, the two identical yet different tribulation lights silently melted away, and the scene was suddenly filled with a terrifying silence.

However, the silence did not last long, and Jiang Mingzhi gained the upper hand. The dark light of disaster approached heavily, dissolving all the magic cast by the demon soul.

The demon soul was still not panicking. Seeing that the calamity light was about to cover his body, he smiled strangely, stretched out his right hand and suddenly tore his left arm off, and then threw it away casually.

The gray and dark light touched the target's body and pounced on it in an instant.

The Demon Soul took this opportunity, flashed, and disappeared into the mist again...

Seeing this, Jiang Mingzhi's forehead veins bulged and his teeth chattered.

But he also knew that he couldn't stop at this moment, so he tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and chased after him with a grim face.

However, the demon soul refused to fight him head-on. Instead, it used the fog to turn back and forth, targeting the tribesmen who were using their magic power to suppress the demon cave. This disturbed everyone and made them afraid to suppress it with all their strength, for fear of dying on the spot.

Having lost nearly half of his mana, the demon cave, which was once within reach of being suppressed, now seemed to be in a distant prospect...

……

When the demon soul was fighting with the Jiang clan members, they were hidden in the fog. No one could see clearly what was happening inside. They could only judge that something had happened inside based on the bursts of loud noises and various fluctuations of energy coming from there.

Taoist Mingyin frowned, looking back at the demon cave, muttering, "There's clearly no demonic aura or foul air, so why is there a fight going on inside?"

Wu Quan's heart was slightly moved, and he continued, "Could it be that there is really something wrong with Jiang Daozi?"

Yaoguang's eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and she didn't feel like reminding Shen Yan anymore. After looking at the sky, she said in a serious tone, "Time is running out. No matter what happens inside, we can't just stand by and watch."

After saying this, she turned around and was about to fly away.

Miao Yan and the others nodded as well, but before they could move, they saw demonic energy surging in the distance and a river of blood flowing towards them.

Yaoguang paused, looked up, and saw that it was the Blood Desolate Old Demon and others who had returned. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"It's really you who are causing all this trouble!"

"Hahaha……"

The old demon Xuehuang was in a very good mood. He said loudly, "Fairy, you really have wronged us. The Jiang family is in turmoil, so what does it have to do with us?"

"My dear fairy and fellow Taoists, please don't interfere in the affairs of other people. If you do, I, an old man, will be the first to disagree."

Taoist Mingyin snorted coldly and said, "What a big tone! I want to see how a dying old demon like you can refuse!"

He waved his sleeves, and all the mysterious Yin power gathered in his body. He rushed towards the old demon Xuehuang and shouted, "Fairy Yaoguang, you go and help the Jiang family. We will stop these demon cultivators!"

Miao Yan and the others understood what he meant, and they all used their magic power to follow Taoist Ming Yin.

They originally wanted to stop the four people in front of them, but the old demon Xuehuang roared, and a river of blood rolled under his feet, circling around them, trapping them all in the blood river.

Even though they used their own methods to make the old demon's blood boil and almost die, Xi Chenghe intervened and finally managed to stabilize the situation and he was safe for a short time.

The remaining two, Yan Xinjue, also knew their mission. After smiling at each other, they rushed forward to stop Yaoguang.

For a moment, the roar of battle continued in three different locations. The situations were quite similar, with clear advantages and disadvantages in each location, but they were unable to instantly defeat their opponents...

The sky brightened, and the unique coolness of the morning swept across the whole place.

Looking at Yan and Luo who never confronted her head-on, Yaoguang's heart moved. She raised her slender hand and used the "Sihua" technique again.

A bright light appeared, like the rising sun, emitting dazzling rays of light, piercing through all the shadows in front.

Yan and Luo's faces changed, and they quickly withdrew like ghosts avoiding the scorching sun.

But this time they were not as lucky as before. The light followed them like a shadow and caught up with them in the blink of an eye.

But after hearing a crackling sound, Yan Luo and the other man cried out in pain, and a dazzling light exploded in the sky, and they each fell from the clouds.

Yaoguang's beautiful eyes flashed, and she suddenly flew towards the magic cave.

But before she arrived, she suddenly heard a loud noise like the earth cracking and a mountain collapsing. Her heart tightened and she looked up, but she still couldn't see anything because of the thick fog.

But just after two or three breaths, a shocking turbid air seemed to rebound from the bottom, suddenly gushing into the sky like a pillar, and the rolling devilish breath followed it, dispersing the surrounding fog.

In an instant, Miao Yan and others, as well as the old demon Xuehuang, all paused, and looked towards the front of the magic cave with Yaoguang.

The Jiang clan members were seen standing or lying scattered everywhere. Jiang Mingzhi had disheveled hair, and the sword in his hand finally forced out the confusing demon soul and annihilated it into nothingness.

Beside him was Jiang Xiuqi, whose eyes were closed and only one hand and one leg were visible.

Behind the Jiang family, the magic cave returned to normal, and the dark demonic energy filled the entire sky. The air was suddenly thick and choking...

"Ugh."

Taoist Mingyin sighed heavily.

Miao Yan and others also remained silent.

Time is running out, and the magic cave here has solidified beyond redemption...

In contrast, Yan Xinjue and others could not suppress their joy.

But they didn't dare to reveal too much. After looking at each other, they flew away quietly.

Only after he disappeared from sight did Jiang Mingzhi come to his senses, realize something was wrong, and intend to chase and kill him, but it was too late.

Yaoguang flew down and looked at the other party's bloodshot eyes and murderous expression. She couldn't help but shake her head and sighed, asking, "Fellow Daoist Jiang, what exactly happened?"

Jiang Mingzhi remained silent for a long time, thinking that Jiang Xiuqi's matter was still unspeakable, so he only said vaguely, "This is a long story... The Demon Cave could not be suppressed. Thank you all for making this trip. I, the Jiang family, will definitely remember this friendship."

In fact, even if he didn't say it clearly, Yaoguang and others could guess a thing or two based on what they saw, but no one was willing to reveal it. They all shook their heads and sighed:

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, please don't be polite. Now that this is over, you still need to clean up the mess. I will take my leave now."

After saying that, the six of them flew up together, took a deep look at this magic cave, and then flew back the way they came...

At the hour of Mao, when the first ray of sunlight shines through the layers of clouds and mist, pouring down on this continent.

But there was a loud sound of the earth cracking, and there seemed to be a huge wave rising in the sky, and the whole void began to tremble and shake.

The next moment, the Jiang family's dark magic pillar rushed into the sky, and it was above the sky, opening a crack in the void, like a bottomless cave.

At almost the same time, the same scene was being played out in the Northern Region of Zhongzhou, Piaomiao Realm, and other places. If all were added together, there were a total of five passages!

In addition to this, there were two obscure fluctuations above Zhongzhou, which actually began to gather the demonic breath and turbid air, accumulating endless power to turn the virtual into the real and break through the void.

One of them should naturally be in the Purple Extreme Realm, but the other one shocked everyone who noticed it...
