Aside from sensing powerful demonic and malevolent energies, we could already hear sounds of battle.
There were "buzzing" explosions and low growls.
The Rat Matriarch ahead was increasingly anxious, accelerating her pace.
We continued to follow closely.
A few minutes later, we burst out of the cave and entered a much grander divine hall.
Here, it was like a magnificent palace.
Crystals glinted everywhere.
Reliefs of rats adorned the surroundings…
But at this moment, a fierce battle was raging below.
Hundreds of Yin Fiends and over a hundred various demons…
The most intense conflict was in the center, where an old woman and an old man were fighting most ferociously.
I recognized the old woman as the Formless Old Mother.
The old man, trailing a long tail behind him, was likely the traitorous Great Elder of the Rat Clan.
The other rat demons were also fighting against the fiends and other demons.
However, amidst this horde of fiends, I spotted another familiar face.
Miao Nanzi of the Longevity Society.
He was wielding a long sword, locked in combat with a rat demon, with over a dozen ghostly escorts by his side.
“Brother Tang, that is our Grey Clan’s Old Mother, and the one fighting her is the traitorous Great Elder…”
Hearing this, all our gazes focused on the Formless Old Mother and the Formless Cave’s Great Elder.
These two demons were of extremely high cultivation; no fiend dared to approach within ten meters of their battle circle.
“Fellow Rat Daoist, how do we distinguish the Grey Clan’s traitor…”
Uncle suddenly inquired.
The fiends and the Longevity Society’s demons were easier to identify.
But how to differentiate between the many rat demons fighting each other below?
The Rat Matriarch immediately replied:
“The traitors are all wearing black robes. Any Rat Immortal in black can be killed!”
Upon hearing this, we quickly identified our targets.
Uncle then addressed us:
“Everyone, let’s join forces and kill our way in, to relieve the Formless Old Mother…”
“Yes!”
“…”
Everyone prepared themselves, about to act.
As soon as the words left his mouth, Uncle took out his medicinal wine and took a swig.
Simultaneously, he bit his finger and quickly drew a talisman seal on his forehead.
Uncle was about to unleash his advanced Divine Summoning Technique, the Thunderous Divine Summoning.
Seeing this, Old Mo didn’t hesitate, biting his finger and drawing a talisman seal on his forehead.
This was clearly a prelude to unleashing their ultimate moves.
Then, Uncle and Old Mo simultaneously let out a low shout:
“Lin, Bing, Dou, Zhe, Jie, Chen, Lie, Wu, Xing, Kai!”
The talisman seals flashed.
Uncle and Old Mo’s bodies trembled, and a powerful Dao energy surged outward.
From their foreheads, an arc of lightning instantly jumped out, crackling, and spread throughout their bodies.
Their physiques also expanded by a full size.
The powerful aura of Uncle and Old Mo, who simultaneously performed the ‘Thunderous Divine Summoning,’ also drew the attention of the fiends in the divine hall.
They all turned their heads.
Among them, Miao Nanzi’s eyes landed on me.
A flicker of surprise crossed his face:
“Human Medicine!”
I, too, activated my Yin and Yang energies, holding the Yin and Yang Pearls, which circled around me.
The Yin and Yang energies continuously vibrated outwards.
Uncle, gazing below, roared:
“Follow me and kill!”
With that, Uncle charged forward.
Old Mo and I followed closely, without hesitation.
The Twelve Demon Souls and the Rat Matriarch, Xiao Yao, were also quick to act…
In an instant, all the fiends within the divine hall noticed us.
Miao Nanzi watched us from afar, his brow furrowed:
“Such a Human Medicine, his cultivation has actually improved so rapidly!”
While surprised, he commanded the ten ghosts beside him:
“Go, bring the Human Medicine back to me!”
The ten ghosts were his personal guards, each possessing their own abilities.
Upon hearing Miao Nanzi’s command, they immediately responded:
“Yes, Master!”
With that, the ten ghosts soared into the sky, all charging towards me…
