Xia Yu felt a sense of coolness. Following Bai Qi's guidance, she seemed to have an extra pair of eyes. She could see the outside world even without opening her eyes.
This is a completely different experience from viewing with spiritual consciousness.
The entrance to the cave is not big, and the ground is very slippery. But after walking in for a while, it suddenly became clear that it was a cave going downwards. The terrain inside is very complex, with caves within caves, and there are many underground rivers inside.
The little snake quickly found the group of men in black based on the remaining traces.
This is a very large cave, tens of feet deep into the ground. There are densely packed men in black gathered in the cave, each of them standing there as if waiting for something.
The little snake avoided the crowd, and under Bai Qi's command, began to explore around the cave.
Not long after, the little snake discovered several more caves. The caves contained ordinary people, at least several thousand people, and there was no doubt that these people were all kidnapped.
The girl from before was also among them.
"Quiet!"
The little snake did not disturb these ordinary people and returned to the cave full of men in black. Just at this moment, a man wearing a cape walked onto the stone platform.
The man gave a soft drink, and the entire cave fell silent.
"After a while, we will hold a blood sacrifice ceremony to summon the Demon Lord and listen to his teachings. The Demon Lord is trapped in Jiuyou. When his old man regains his strength, he will be allowed to roam in the nine heavens and ten places. Everyone, please come together.
Work hard to turn this world into a paradise for us."
The man standing on the stone platform spoke slowly. Everyone in the audience lowered their heads and put their hands in front of them. Everyone looked very pious.
The amount of information revealed by the man's words was so great that even Bai Qi couldn't help but ponder it for a while.
Now he feels more and more that these guys may be related to the Bone Demon.
Coincidentally, what these people did next confirmed his guess. Before the blood sacrifice ceremony began, a bone altar was raised on the stone platform.
It's still a familiar smell, it's because the Bone Demon hasn't escaped.
"Prepare the blood sacrifice and welcome the arrival of the Bone Demon King."
The man stood on the stone platform and slowly knelt down. The other men in black followed suit and also knelt down on the spot.
Later, they will bring the sacrifices and set up a blood refining formation at the scene.
The blood sacrifice of so many people is not only to listen to the Demon Lord's teachings, but also to help the Demon Lord regain his strength. As long as the Demon Lord recovers his strength, he can come to the wilderness in real form, instead of only being able to descend in clones or phantoms.
When that time comes, the entire wilderness will become a "demon realm", and one day, the Demon King will lead everyone to create another demon realm.
"Let's do it."
Bai Qi couldn't just watch thousands of innocent people die. He gestured to Xia Yu, jumped up, and headed straight for the devil's cave.
There is no doubt that all the men in black in the cave should be killed.
Xia Yu went to the caves where ordinary people were imprisoned with a tacit understanding. Bai Qi came to the top of the Bone Altar, raised his hand, and surrounded him with a sword array.
Then, he grabbed the guy in the cloak. He was obviously the leader of the group. To capture the thief, capture the king first.
"who?"
The man in the cloak realized Bai Qi's existence belatedly.
However, his level of strength was far behind, and he could not escape from Bai Qi's grasp. Bai Qi grabbed the man and started searching for his soul without saying a word.
For such a fanatical believer, nothing can be learned from an interrogation.
"Hurry up, Lord Protector, or you will die without a burial place when the Demon King comes."
Bai Qi took down the man in the cloak, and the men in black immediately became a mess.
Some people yelled and cursed, some took out weapons and magic weapons, some rushed up, and some rushed towards the cave where the sacrifices were kept.
[Thousands of swords piercing the heart]
The sword array hung high, covering the entire cave. Bai Qi launched an attack while searching for souls. He saw sword shadows falling all over the sky, and the man in black at the scene had no time to react and was killed on the spot.
Compared with Bai Qi, the level of strength of these men in black is simply thousands of miles away.
Thousands of people in black were left alive. Bai Qi opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of fire, burning all the corpses cleanly.
It's impossible for them to do anything like ghosts.
Later, when the soul search was completed, the man in the cloak also enjoyed the same treatment.
"Xiaoyu, I've cleaned up here. You can take those mortals out."
Bai Qi sent a message to Xia Yu and asked her to place the "sacrifice" first. Then he looked at the bone altar thoughtfully, thought about it, and destroyed it.
He and the Bone Demon actually had nothing to talk about. The other party wanted to turn the wilderness into a "demon realm", and even wanted to create another demon realm.
Putting aside others, Bai Qi was the first one not to agree!
"Look at you, you eat and sleep all day long. How many people are eyeing the wilderness, aren't you afraid that someone will take over your home?"
Bai Qi walked out slowly. As he walked, he took out the [Chalcedony Pill Heart], chattering as he walked.
He was actually a little confused, what was so good about the Desolate World? Why did both of them fall in love with this small world? The Qianyuan World was like this, and the Bone Demon King was still like this. Maybe there were secrets in the Desolate World that he didn't know?
"This bone demon is really difficult to deal with."
Bai Qi talked for a long time, but there was still no response from [Chalcedony Pill Heart]. He was so angry that he threw the thing back into the storage space.
Thinking of the gains from searching for souls before, he couldn't help but sigh.
The Bone Demon has cultivated a large number of fanatics. These fanatics do not know each other and have never contacted each other. A fanatic can establish a force and then use various means to provide resources to the Bone Demon through blood sacrifices.
Believers like this are spread all over the Huang Realm and the Qianyuan Realm.
This is the reason why the Blood Refining Formation has been repeatedly banned. These fanatical believers cannot be completely eradicated. Once they cut off a stubble, another one will soon grow. There is only one way to solve this problem, and that is to find the White Bone Demon.
, and kill them.
But this is too difficult. I don’t know which world the White Bone Demon’s true form is hidden in. How can I find it?
Bai Qi walked out of the cave and waited outside.
After nearly an hour, Xia Yu led a team of thousands of people out. It meant that she had experience in managing mortals in Tianlang Peak. Otherwise, she didn't know how long she would have to wait.
At this time, it was also dawn.
"Your Majesty, I want to escort them down the mountain, is that okay?"
Xia Yu looked at the thousands of people who were in shock and couldn't help but feel compassion.
She looked at Bai Qi and asked in a low voice, a little nervous, like a child who had done something wrong. After all, she had to follow him to practice, but in the end, her trip was delayed because of her nosy.
"Well, you go ahead. I'll wait for you on the top of the mountain. There's no rush."
Bai Qi didn't care. The so-called experience was just wandering around, with no specific goals and no rush for time.
Xia Yu nodded quickly, and then organized the troops to maintain order. The adults carried the children on their backs, divided them into several teams, and walked down the mountain.
Of course she won't send everyone home. As long as these people reach a populated place, she will return here.
When Bai Qi reached the top of the mountain and sat down, he couldn't help but sigh.
It was such an eventful time, one thing led to another, the war with the Qianyuan Realm had just ended, and the White Bone Demon showed its fangs again.
He shook his head to get rid of some useless thoughts.
Then he took out a talisman, and then took out the [Chalcedony Pill Heart]. The rules of heaven and earth of the Qianyuan Realm were engraved on the talisman, which was quickly absorbed by the [Chalcedony Pill Heart].
He was too lazy to calculate how many rules of heaven and earth he had fed this guy. Anyway, no matter how many runes he ate, it didn't move.
After completing this task according to habit, he quietly meditated on the turtle shell.
There is no way to advance in his realm, and he has mastered all kinds of spells. Only by understanding the starlight runes can he gain something.
He sat on the mountain for a whole day, and Xia Yu didn't come back until evening.
"Your Majesty, it's my fault that I have kept you waiting for so long."
"It doesn't matter, let's go."
There is nothing good in the cave. These evil cultivators use the essence and blood of living creatures to cultivate, and there is no decent accumulation at all.
Before Bai Qi left, he collapsed the cave with one palm. Dust will return to dust, everything will return to nature.
Next, the two went to Middle-earth. In Middle-earth, similar things happened several times. Ordinary people will always have all kinds of dissatisfaction in their lives, and even those who become monks are distinguished by high and low.
Quick exercises have their own appeal. Once a person's good thoughts disappear, evil thoughts will take over. Not to mention absorbing the essence and blood of other living beings, some people will even kill their wives and children.
"So, we must find the true form of the Bone Demon. If we don't destroy him, things like blood sacrifices will continue to happen."
Xia Yu couldn't help but sigh.
Bai Qi nodded, partially agreeing with the other party's point of view. The White Bone Demon should be killed, but after killing the White Bone Demon, will similar things never happen again?
I'm afraid not necessarily.
Three months later.
Bai Qi and Xia Yu tracked down some clues about the original blood sacrifice to Baiye City. Various signs indicate that this is not a "feat" that a group of fanatical believers can accomplish alone. There must be training sects from the Middle Earth involved.
Just when the two were about to investigate in depth, Xia Yu suddenly sensed an opportunity for a breakthrough.
"Xiaoyu, let's go back first. If you are going to break through the Qianyuan Realm, you can ask Zhehua to protect you. As for tracing the culprit of the blood sacrifice in Baiye City, I will leave it to Yuan Yang."
Bai Qi knew very well that once a breakthrough opportunity appeared, it could no longer be delayed.
Therefore, he immediately stopped other things and flew back to Beiluo Mountain with Xia Yu. Xia Yu and Zhehua used the teleportation array to go to the Qianyuan Realm, and Xia Yu would survive the tribulation at Cuihua Mountain outside Golden Eagle City.
Bai Qi did not go with him. He had folded flowers to protect Xia Yu, so there was nothing to worry about. He summoned Yuan Yang and discussed with him behind closed doors for a long time before Yuan Yang left in a hurry.
Previously, the Royal Court had also been investigating the truth behind the blood sacrifice to Baiye City, but the direction was wrong. Not only evil cultivators were involved in that case, but also the cultivation sects in Middle-earth were involved.
