Misery: There is a pawn shop here

Chapter 101 The Drums of War Are About to Beat
Thousands of demons hummed on the Guardian God Platform, crimson demonic flames licking the bronze pillars like snakes. Master Fu Ying ascended the steps paved with phosphorescent light, her indigo sleeves sweeping across the suspended skull lamps on either side, casting distorted shadows on the stone walls. Spiritual energy surged in the Heavenly Demon Pool, and suddenly, eighty-one soul-binding chains descended from the void, clinking and supporting the translucent form of a white-haired old man.

"Even you, haven't you ever heard of the existence of that pawnshop?"

Deep within the Flame Demon City, on the Hanging Bone Underworld God's Ring Platform, the most mysterious "God's Ring Book" of the Otherworldly Demon Realm is hidden. Over the years, the spiritual energy within the Heavenly Demon Pool has gathered, giving birth to a spirit that was conceived along with the "God's Ring Book". As the spirit of the "God's Ring Book", it not only knows all the contents recorded in the "God's Ring Book", but also knows all the big and small things happening in the demon world.
In order to investigate the existence of a pawnshop, Master Fu Ying stepped onto the Jieshen Platform and visited the old Jieshen. However, even from the Jieshen Book Spirit, who knew everything about the otherworldly demon world, Master Fu Ying was unable to get the answer he needed.

The old Lord of Guards hovered high in the sky, stroking his long beard. He lowered his head to look at Master Fu Ying on the ground and said with a smile, "Young man, even I only know a little more. Even within the Otherworld, I am not omniscient. The pawnshop you mentioned has never been recorded in the Otherworld."

Master Fu Ying frowned slightly upon hearing this. "But based on the level of understanding that person showed about the Otherworld Demon Realm, it's hard to say that he has never had any contact with the Otherworld Demon Realm before."

"The history of the Otherworldly Demon Realm only started with that person. According to what you said, if that pawnshop really has such terrifying abilities, it might be an existence even higher than the Otherworldly Demon Realm." The old man laughed like a dead branch breaking.

"An existence beyond the otherworldly demonic realm?" Master Fu Ying murmured, repeating what the old God of Discipline had said, subconsciously wanting to deny it in his heart.

But as a wise man, his calmness constantly reminded Master Fu Ying that before there was sufficient evidence, he should not rush to deny any possibility. Any wrong judgment could have a huge impact on the alien demon world.

"No, that's impossible." Master Fu Ying immediately thought of something and quickly shook his head. "That pawnshop might really have some magical powers, but it can't even replicate Zhu Yan, so how could it be what you say?"

Upon hearing this, the old God of Discipline laughed a few times, and his body just floated and circled in the air.

"This is the job of you, the Ghost King's top think tank. I am just a book, or perhaps a place that can answer your questions."

"Hmm? Are you talking about..." Master Fu Ying paused when he heard this, and thought of the existence that the old Jieshen mentioned.

"Aren't you familiar with it too?" The old Lord of the Rings smiled inscrutablely, "Exactly, the Statue of the Heavenly Demon."

……

……

"Even so, the Holy Trace still escaped. Sigh."

In the realm of nothingness, Jianzi Xianji, Fojian Fenshuo and Aoxiao Hongchen returned one after another, bringing back their own news, some happy and some sad.

Earlier, when Mu Shaoai was mobilizing troops, Ao Xiao Hongchen's presence was partly to provide timely support in case of an unexpected situation; it was also intended as a last-ditch effort in the event of Sheng Zong's defeat. However, although Ao Xiao Hongchen successfully intercepted Sheng Zong, the presence of a pawnshop allowed Sheng Zong to escape once again.

"That pawnshop is definitely not a good place. Saint Trace will pay a heavy price for this repeated transaction, perhaps even a fate worse than death." Ren Chenfu consoled the crowd, "After all, this isn't a complete failure. As you've said, every transaction in that pawnshop comes at a price. Even if Saint Trace escapes, he won't be able to commit evil again in a short period of time."

"That's right," Qin Jiaxian said from the side, "and didn't Beichen Yuanhuang also agree to help break the seal of Fengyun Mountain? At least this matter has been successfully broken through."

"That's right." Chuan Yuxiao also said, "And fortunately, with the help of Pure Glaze Bodhisattva, we have successfully contacted the Holy Land. Now the Holy Land is willing to assist. Once Xuanzong is unsealed, we can gather our forces and besiege the Otherworldly Demon Realm. The offensive and defensive situations are now very different."

"It's not time to celebrate yet." Mu Shaoai played with his pipe, lost in thought. He wasn't particularly familiar with Beichen Yuanhuang, his knowledge of him coming only from the retellings of Qin Jiaxian, Jian Zixianji, and others. He was undoubtedly a monarch of great talent and vision. Could such a man truly be trusted to lead the Yiliu clan?

However, the focus of the current situation is not here. As several people said, the priority is to unlock the seal of Fengyun Mountain, release Xuanzong's combat power, and contact all parties to fight against the alien demon world.

If the Yiliu troops can be transformed into an aid against the Otherworldly Demon Realm, then the Zhonglie Palace might be able to assist...

"Since Fengyun Mountain is sealed, the Demon Realm of the Other Dimension will certainly deploy a considerable force for defense. This battle cannot be neglected. I'd like to trouble the Immortal to contact the Holy Land to send troops to assist." Mu Shaoai looked at Chuan Yuxiao and said.

"Okay." Chuan Yuxiao nodded.

Mu Shaoai then looked at the Sword Monk Xuanlian and the Four Elegant Poets, "Xuanzong's seal, thank you both for your help."

"This is a matter of our classification, no need to be polite." The sword monk Xuanlian replied while shaking his feather fan.

"As people from a miserable world, how can we allow the otherworldly demon world to bring disaster to the common people?" Si Ya Za Shi Lang also said.

"Jianzi, Fojian, you two are both seriously injured this time, so you should recuperate in the Realm of Nothingness, and the guarding will be handed over to Tianxian Daozang."

Tianxian Daozang nodded, and the bamboo basket shook slightly.

"Ao Xiao Hongchen, I, and the two Taoist priests will serve as support forces to guard against the offensive from the Otherworldly Demon Realm. I will also send a message to Tan Wuyu to ask him to take action."

"This time, we will definitely succeed in one fell swoop!" Qin Jiaxian said, and the karma spirits and Yinshi people behind him echoed in response.

Ren Chenfu, upon seeing this, bowed and said, "I am a scholar, not a warrior. Since the formation techniques are handled by the senior sword monks, I will not teach them how to fight. Please allow me to wait for your good news."

"Okay, thank you." Seeing that Ren Chenfu was so sensible, Mu Shaoai naturally had no reason to refuse.

Although Ren Chenfu assisted Ding Tianlu and Chuan Yuxiao, Mu Shaoai always had doubts about his origins. Since the other party took the initiative to propose to stay in the Realm of Nothingness, it was naturally the best thing.

As for whether the other party who stayed behind could do anything, haha, not to mention the dangerous sword hiding, Jianzi and Fojian were in charge, you have to know that the two were only injured, not dead.

"That's the plan, Qin Jiaxian. I'll leave it to you to deliver the message from Yiliu."

"No problem, old boy, let's go!"

The drums of war thunder, Fengyun Mountain is sealed, attracting attention from all parties. The three extraordinary people gather their strength, troops are dispatched, and the forces of good and evil are destined to confront each other again.
