Fairy, I am truly a virtuous gentleman!

"What a 'discarding the millstone after it has served its purpose' drama! It's truly an eye-opener for me."

The carriage curtain was lifted, and a handsome young man dressed in fine clothes stepped out.

He held the charming and pitiful Hongluan in his arms, calmly looking down at Guitong below, his superior posture making it seem as if he was the one who held the power of speech.

Ning Yuan lowered his eyes and said, "Ghost Eye... or perhaps, should I call you the Lord of Ghost City?"

Hongluan looked shocked and incredulous.

'Ghost Eye' was slightly taken aback, chuckled for a moment, and then his expression became much more solemn.

"It seems you are no ordinary person. What brings you here?"

Ning Yuan did not answer, but instead turned his gaze to the strange monk and Ying Si.

"Great Venerable Alchemist of the Wheel of Annihilation, if I remember correctly, this seems to be the title of Floating Demon Lord before he joined the Yin Heaven Palace of Zhou?"

The eerie monk chuckled, intrigued.

"You recognize me?"

Ning Yuan said, "Fu Luo Demon Lord was originally an Arhat of Bao Liu Tian Ling Mountain, but he happened to meet a Dao Venerable from Zhou Yin Tian Palace who traveled all over the heavens. After a discussion, he decided to abandon his Buddhist practice and turn to the Dao of Immortality. He became a disciple of this Dao Venerable from Zhou Yin Tian Palace and attained his Dao status again in just three hundred years, with the Dao name Fu Luo."

The eerie monk shook his head and said, "Indeed, indeed, I am Fuluo. You lad, not only are you good-looking with a pretty boy face, but you also know quite a lot."

But then Fuluo Demon Lord waved his hand again, "However, I must correct one point. I am not abandoning my Buddhist practice, but rather intending to forge a new path."

Ning Yuan shook his head and sighed, "A new path? How easy is that? Demon Lord, you are too greedy, which is why you are now neither a Buddha nor an immortal, a complete mess."

"Your assessment is quite similar to the old man's..."

Upon hearing this, the Demon Lord Fuluo was slightly taken aback, then slowly said, "However, it is the act of the demonic path that seeks to deviate from the norm in pursuit of the truth in one's heart... What do you think, fellow Daoist?"

The Demon Lord Fuluo actually called this person a fellow Daoist?

Ying Si, who aspired to become a qualified demoness, looked at Fu Luo Demon Lord with a conflicted expression.

There were some things she was unsure whether to say or not, and she felt they were somewhat inappropriate...

Ghost Eye was immediately filled with awe and dared not make a move rashly.

Could this also be an incarnation of some immortal sect leader?

A strange glint flashed in his blood-red eyes, and Ghost Eyes pondered, "Your Excellency, what brings you here? The matter of breaking the seal is of great importance to me. If you have come to stop me, then I have no choice but to learn from your methods."

Ning Yuan didn't answer, he just smiled.

He released the red phoenix and leaped down from the stone pillar.

The young man was fresh and handsome, tall and elegant, and said with a relaxed air: "Instead of wasting time testing me later, let's try it out first and see if I am qualified to communicate with you on an equal footing."

So direct?

Ghost Eye and Floating Demon Lord exchanged a glance, and immediately smiled and agreed, "That would be excellent."

next moment!

Just as easily as he had refined numerous Ghost Lords before, Ghost Eye's six blood-red eyes shot out a strange crimson light.

Ning Yuan neither dodged nor avoided, his eyes fixed straight ahead.

The red phoenix above instinctively called out, "Master!"

Jing Yiyi

Suddenly, all sounds inside the bronze palace disappeared.

A power even more profound and dark than the Yin energy of the Crimson Abyss emanated and swirled around Ning Yuan.

A ferocious monster, three zhang tall, with indigo skin, protruding fangs, hideous pupils, a red crown, and black armor, appeared on the spot.

He held a sword, pestle, knife, staff, whip, and blue lotus lantern, exuding a stern aura, like a demon god reborn. Just one glance from him could ignite endless anger within one's heart.

The Moon Magic Form, comparable to the Great Night Demon of the Golden Core!

Ying Si gently covered her small, cherry-like lips, looking surprised.

"This is……"

Just then, the crimson light emitted by Ghost Eye struck the Moon Magic Aspect's skin, which was as hard as iron, without causing the slightest ripple!

In contrast, the Moon Magic Image, with its six arms swinging in unison, had already made the Bronze Palace increasingly unbearable even before it touched the ground, as the winds swirling from all directions swept over it.

Ning Yuan had already seen through Gui Tong's true nature. His rich and profound cultivation of ten thousand years was not fake, but perhaps out of fear of the Seven Luminaries Dragon Spirit Array, the opponent was also limited to the realm of fierce ghosts.

In terms of sheer strength, even the combined might not be a match for Ghost Eye, despite the combined might of Red Demon and Onda.

But the reason he was able to easily dissolve these ghost lords' ghost bodies was because he triggered the restrictions deep within the souls of these fierce ghosts!

Ning Yuan used a secret technique to investigate everything clearly, and that's why he was certain that this 'Ghost Eye' was actually the so-called Lord of Ghost City!

Ghost Eyes snorted coldly, and the six blood-red eyes merged together, transforming into two enormous scarlet vertical pupils.

A pair of terrifying crimson eyes, seemingly existing since time immemorial, stretching to the heavens and earth, obscuring the sun and clouds, loomed over the main hall.

It was as if ancient gods, from the depths of the universe, were casting their divine gaze upon the tiny creatures on the land.

Majestic and unfathomable, profound and mysterious.

However, the Great Night Demon, which was transformed from the Moon Magic Form, was an embodiment of anger. Like a savage without reason, it was completely unaffected. Instead, its aura became even more violent and fierce as it charged straight towards Ghost Eye.

But in the end, the massive body of the Moon Magic Phase gently stopped just a hair's breadth away from Ghost Eye.

The demonic energy scattered, turning into a black mist that covered Ning Yuan's right chest along his collar.

He landed on the ground, pulled his clothes together, and stood facing Ghost Eye, Floating Demon Lord, and Ying Si.

"how?"

Ghost Eye remained calm, showing no sign of being able to do anything to Ning Yuan despite his own methods being completely ineffective.

He exclaimed sincerely, "Your Dharma incarnation is truly powerful and extraordinary!"

The Demon Lord Fuluo marveled.

"This Dharma form resembles a long-lost demonic secret technique, yet you wield its power with effortless ease... Could you perhaps be one of the demon lords I know well?"

Ning Yuan's eyes showed a strange expression. He glanced at Ying Si and said, "No."

At this moment, having witnessed the young man's prowess, Ying Si smiled, her eyes gleaming with a strange light. Her voice, like a silver bell, secretly transmitted to Ning Yuan, "Young Master Ning, you don't want your true identity to be exposed, do you?"

Ning Yuan ignored the woman.

Ying Si's beautiful eyes widened, her red lips parted slightly, and after glancing at Fu Luo Demon Lord and Gui Tong, she continued to stay obediently to the side.

But in her gaze toward Ning Yuan, a well-hidden glint of greed and longing flashed.

I was just wondering where to look for you, and here you are...

"I came to Crimson Abyss for no other reason than what lies beyond the Bronze Gate."

Although Fuluo Demon Lord and Guitong's auras did not exceed the Golden Core Realm, both of them were incarnations of powerful figures.

Especially the former. Although the title of the Great Venerable Master of the Wheel of Destruction Medicine is unknown in the Great Xuan Heaven, the Daoist title of the Floating Demon Lord is quite famous and can definitely be called a giant of the immortal path.

Correspondingly, the true form of Ghost Eye, the mysterious Lord of Ghost City, is also no ordinary person.

Unfortunately, this is the Crimson Abyss.

The massive array that enveloped the entire capital, the Seven Luminaries Dragon Spirit Array, was like a sword hanging over the necks of countless cultivators, pressing down on everything.

Due to factors such as the Misty Mist, Ning Yuan, like Chu Lingci and Ji Daoyun, was at the limit below the Golden Core stage.

In other words, he now has the power to overturn the table.

Fuluo Demon Lord didn't care.

But Ghost Eyes' six blood-red eyes suddenly all stared at Ning Yuan.

"Do you know what's behind that bronze door?"

Ning Yuan shook his head.

"I don't know, but I do know that behind the bronze door lies what I need."
