Outside the Demon Palace, the ghostly alarm suddenly sounded.
Once this sound appeared inside or outside the Demon Palace.
All entrances and exits of the Demon Palace needed to activate the formation to seal the gate immediately.
Everyone present was very nervous.
Fearing the danger of not being able to enter smoothly and being exposed.
As a result, with Aunt Yunxia's superb acting skills, they were managed to be fooled.
And they were even arrogant, showing no regard for the guarding demon priests.
Only someone like Aunt Yunxia, who had seen great storms, could remain so calm and adapt to the situation.
At this moment, we pretended to be zombies.
Hopping forward with "thump, thump, thump."
Aunt Yunxia and Xia Qiuxi followed behind us.
The two guarding demon priests were still respectfully seeing off Aunt Yunxia and Xia Qiuxi.
"Farewell, two Daoist nuns!"
"Daoist nuns, thank you for your hard work patrolling."
Hearing the voices from behind, we felt both excited and surprised.
But I also knew that this was a crucial moment, and not a single mistake could be made.
Ten meters, five meters...
Finally, we jumped into the Demon Palace city through the broken wall entrance.
And as soon as we entered the Demon Palace.
In the mountain forest outside, the screams of female ghosts sounded again.
"Ah, ah..."
The sound was piercing, loud, and rhythmic.
The two guarding demon priests heard this sound again, their faces changed, and they exchanged glances:
"It's truly an alarm!"
"Quick, seal the gate!"
After saying that, the two hurriedly ran into the Demon Palace city.
Standing at the entrance and exit, on both sides of the broken wall.
They waved the black and red flags in their hands.
The eight patrolling skinless monsters ran into the city with "woo woo woo" sounds.
The two guarding demon priests simultaneously formed hand seals and aimed at an Eight Trigrams plate by the city wall, sealing it with seals.
They whispered:
"Lin, Bing, Dou, Zhe, Jie, Lie, Qian, Xing, Qi Zhen!"
As soon as the incantation fell.
The two slapped the Eight Trigrams plate with their palms.
Instantly, the Eight Trigrams plate emitted a black light.
Some special runes appeared on the wall.
The runes spread little by little.
Finally, twenty meters from the collapsed broken wall, white mist suddenly condensed and rose.
Visibly, it sealed this broken wall entrance.
We saw this scene from the corner of our eyes.
Our hearts were filled with dread, but fortunately, we had already entered.
Otherwise, if we were sealed outside, we would truly have no chance.
However, at this moment, we were still holding our breath and dared not breathe.
Continuing to jump forward.
After entering the Demon Palace, the surroundings were all broken walls and ruined houses.
They should have been there for many years, a deserted ancient city.
Unaware of when these demons occupied it, raising ghosts and corpses here.
Besides this, zombies and fierce ghosts drifted and jumped around patrolling from time to time.
Our situation was still not safe.
After jumping forward for more than twenty meters, we left the city wall.
Inside the Demon Palace, there was also a slight commotion.
We could hear people shouting from time to time:
"Be vigilant!"
"Seal all intersections."
"Don't let people from the Dao Alliance sneak in."
"..."
The voices were constant, and figures flickered within the city.
Several ghostly female apparitions had already floated past us...
The Demon Palace was already in a state of chaos.
For a moment, we didn't know which direction to go.
Because all the intersections in the Demon Palace seemed to be sealed.
We had to stop immediately, hide, and observe the situation.
And discuss the next route and plan...
But fortunately, at this moment, we passed by a dilapidated house.
I glanced around and found no one inside, nor did I sense the aura of any unclean entities.
The door was simply locked with a very ordinary lock.
So I quickly whispered:
"Martial Uncle, Aunt Yunxia, this house is empty, shall we hide for a bit?"
As soon as I spoke, everyone looked over.
At this time, there was no one around, and Martial Uncle decisively said:
"Go in!"
Hearing this, I didn't hesitate at all.
Seeing no one around, I kicked it directly.
With a "clang" sound, the wooden door was kicked open by me, and I rushed in.
The group of us also followed.
Old Mo closed the door from the back.
After we entered the room, we three who were disguised as zombies dared to take a deep breath.
If it weren't for this cultivation.
Holding our breath for so long, we would have suffocated outside.
"Aunt Yunxia, you were so amazing just now, not only bringing us in safely, but those two demon priests didn't suspect anything."
I said with great admiration.
At the same time, I sealed the Yin Gathering Pearl with a talisman to prevent it from releasing too much yin energy.
"Yes! If it weren't for your composure, Aunt Yunxia, and using those two demon priests' words to scare them, we might not have been able to get in at all!"
Martial Uncle also echoed.
Old Mo and Xia Qiuxi looked at Aunt Yunxia with admiration.
Aunt Yunxia waved her hand:
"It's just luck. I just went along with what those two demon priests said.
Everyone should look around and see if this house is safe!"
Aunt Yunxia remained calm and didn't take the matter to heart.
Everyone quickly regained their focus and began to examine the situation in the room.
We saw that in this small dilapidated room, there were many large wooden boxes placed.
On the boxes, many insect patterns were drawn with red ink.
Including snakes, geckos, toads, centipedes, and scorpions.
Old Mo saw this and took a few steps forward:
"Huh, why are there so many boxes here, what's inside?"
As soon as he spoke, Old Mo went to a box.
Preparing to open it with his hand.
But I saw it and quickly stopped him:
"Don't touch it, Old Mo!"
Old Mo was startled and turned back:
"Is there something wrong with this box?"
I looked at the patterns on the box:
"You see the five patterns drawn on it, they are the Five Poisons.
These boxes are likely used by those Black Demon Cult members.
To store the Five Poisons, be careful..."
Martial Uncle also nodded:
"Yes, what Little Qin said is correct.
This is the stronghold of the Black Demon Cult.
Everything here could be the vessels and magical artifacts of those evil people.
They all possess malevolent energy, we'd best be cautious at all times."
"Yes, understood Master!"
Old Mo replied very seriously, keeping his distance from those boxes.
Martial Uncle also nodded, saying "Mm."
And Aunt Yunxia, standing beside them, was examining those boxes and their patterns.
Then she slowly said:
"I saw the drawing style and poisonous creature patterns on these a few years ago.
It seems to originate from a small northern Miao sect called the Five Evils Sect.
The sect only had three to five members.
They specialized in refining蠱 (gu) and cultivating insect techniques.
At that time, they caused a lot of trouble in Miao territory, and many people died.
Many people suddenly grew worms in their brains and maggots in their blood vessels.
At that time, it was even reported in the news that eating snails caused parasitic infections.
In reality, it was being poisoned by the people of the Five Evils Sect.
But later they were jointly suppressed.
I didn't expect that this Five Evils Sect still had remnants alive.
And they have integrated into the Black Demon Cult..."
