第四卷 七星岛 第八百零三章 玄冰妖火

Lin Xuan paid no heed. With his left hand, he flicked and a small black flag appeared in the palm of his hand. As expected, it was indeed the Beast Soul Banner.

A spell was cast upon it.

The banner instantly grew larger, soon reaching several dozen feet high. The dark aura seemed to spread out like tentacles from its surface, enveloping the entire door.

A sharp sound entered Lin Xuan's ears as he moved his eyes slightly and grabbed the magic banner with one hand. The mist dispersed, revealing the door once more before him, while that layer of grayish禁制 had vanished.

Nian Ya's face showed a look of surprise. She had just personally broken this barrier; it was no easy feat to destroy such a powerful禁制. Yet Lin Xuan managed to do so with ease. This boy truly wasn't an ordinary元婴期 cultivator; one mustn't underestimate him… Of course, Du Nv merely felt cautious in her heart since they were allies rather than enemies. Moreover, the more powerful Lin Xuan's abilities were, the better it would be for their escape.

"Princess, let's go!"

As he spoke, Lin Xuan flicked his fingers and a sword energy shot out from the door without the禁制 protecting it.

The door immediately creaked open…

Meanwhile, on the other side,

Using the array of the Purple Bamboo Grove, those two transformed creatures also arrived at this mysterious space. However, instead of entering through the black hole, they flew in the opposite direction.

They kept turning their heads to look around as if searching for something. "Brother Black, is it nearby?" "Yes, you must have seen the handwriting of White Crane Sage; there should be a teleportation array here that can directly enter the True Demon Hall."

The big man with a black face frowned and spoke in this manner.

"Why are there no traces around? "

"Well… I'm not sure. Perhaps the five demon cultivators from back then tampered with it, after all, the handwriting is incomplete, and many things were inferred by us. But there must be a teleportation array nearby."

As he said this, a glint of sharpness flashed in his eyes as his figure darted towards the left lower direction.

A pile of scattered stones appeared before him, but nothing else was visible. The tiger monster's expression showed some confusion, but he didn't say anything.

The big man with black face reached out and patted his waist, summoning a small crystal ball about the size of a dragon eye. "Breaking Illusion Pearl, when did you get this treasure, Brother Black?" The tiger monster's expression was filled with surprise.

"Breaking Illusion Pearl: as its name suggests, it is a special magical artifact used to break through illusionary禁制. It’s extremely difficult to forge and thus has no market value in the marketplace."

"Haha, I got lucky. I noticed some slight fluctuations of mana here; the teleportation array must be hidden by an illusion."

After saying this, he threw the Breaking Illusion Pearl at the ground. Red light flashed, and a strange phenomenon like ripples appeared before his eyes. The scene became blurry, revealing a well-preserved ancient-looking teleportation array.

This was quite different from ordinary ones; it clearly dated back to long ago. The two transformed creatures' faces lit up as they began inspecting without delay.

The array was intact, and around it were several hollow nests. The tiger monster's face brightened as he took out a middle-grade crystal stone from his chest and carefully placed it on the surface.

Both demons then stood in the center of the teleportation array, casting a spell upon it. White light flashed, and they vanished without a trace.

"What is this?" Nian He gasped with her hand over her mouth. Even Lin Xuan, who was usually composed, was taken aback by what lay behind the door.

This was a grand hall, vast in size, measuring thousands of feet across. It was littered with countless corpses, their shapes bizarre and unlike any humans or demons; they were ancient demon creatures that had long since gone extinct. Lin Xuan roughly estimated there to be at least several hundred such creatures.

"So many demon remnants…" Even though the corpses were lifeless, Nian He's scalp tingled with fear. Meanwhile, Lin Xuan pondered what could have happened here.

Outside, cultivators and demons were petrified, but inside this grand hall lay so many demon creature remains. Could it be that during ancient times… "Eh?"

A surprised voice entered his ears as he turned around to see Nian He standing beside a demon corpse with an odd expression on her face. "Princess, do you have any thoughts?" Lin Xuan walked over slowly and saw the demon towering at several dozen feet high, with three heads and six arms, extremely ferocious in appearance. Judging by its form, it was at least an元婴期 cultivator, yet this formidable creature was sealed within a large blue ice block, showing signs of terror on its face.

Lin Xuan had extensive experience in combat, allowing him to deduce that the demon must have been defeated in one fell swoop.

To be able to kill such a powerful demon so quickly, it could only mean a Separation Period expert from the top five demon cultivators. "Not the top five!" Nian He shook her head firmly.

"Oh, princess, what do you know?" Lin Xuan asked with interest.

"This blue ice is from my Snow Fox clan's Mystic Ice Demon Fire."

"Mystic Ice Demon Fire? " "Yes, this is a secret technique of our clan. Both I and my father have practiced it. However, judging by the coldness emitted by this blue ice, the senior who used it must have reached the Separation Period to be able to cultivate up to its seventh level."

Nian He's eyes filled with admiration as she spoke.

"Oh, nobles also have Separation Period experts?"

Lin Xuan was genuinely surprised.

"Indeed, my friend, could you forget that this is Demon Spirit Island and that our Snow Fox clan rules the icy wastelands? Although our top expert is Father, who has reached the late Transformed Form stage, in our history, how could we not have had Separation Period experts?"

Lin Xuan nodded. For instance, Shang Er, a girl, was almost certain to enter the Separation Period after several hundred years.

Our clan's history has seen several dozen ancestors reach the Separation Period, but the most famous should be Senior Elder Tian Lun.

"Tian Lun Senior Elder?" "Mm," Nian He nodded and suddenly her expression changed as she fell into deep thought: "Speaking of it, Senior Elder Tian Lun was from the same era as your human top five demon cultivators."

"Oh?"

Lin Xuan became increasingly interested. He released his divine sense to search through the grand hall but quickly found something unusual. Although he couldn't accurately determine the demons' cultivation levels from their corpses, given the sheer number, it was significant.

However, these creatures seemed not to have undergone any tough battles; most were killed instantly.

To possess such power, they must be Separation Period experts, and there weren’t just one or two of them."

Lin Xuan's imagination ran wild. Could it be that during ancient times, humans and demons had joined forces to battle the demon creatures here?

And both sides' top existences had participated in this conflict?
