Chapter 18 Digging into the Stone Wall: An Unexpected Joy
This all happened so fast that Ye Fan, who was standing to the side, was dumbfounded by He Lang's series of actions.
He always felt that He Lang had planned this countless times!
"You killed this fatso?" Ye Fan asked, picking up the spirit dagger that had fallen to the ground.
"No, it's just a temporary suppression. This fat guy does have some morals, though not many."
Ye Fan nodded upon hearing this, and after thinking about Duan De's actions just now, he realized that the fat Taoist priest was actually quite decent, aside from being a bit shameless. He had already planned to leave after snatching his spiritual weapon.
Unlike those cultivators in the distance, who directly and mercilessly killed them!
"The bronze coffin you just used was quite powerful; it defeated the fat Taoist priest without any resistance. I also visualized the bronze coffin for a while, but it didn't seem as powerful as yours. When you used it, it was as if the bronze coffin itself was right there. Did you transform it into a spiritual secret technique?"
Ye Fan had just noticed this problem. Both of them were visualizing the bronze coffin, but the bronze coffin he visualized only had a similar shape, while the bronze coffin He Lang visualized had a kind of "spirit".
Although it was only a fleeting glimpse, Ye Fan was certain that the bronze coffin activated by He Lang was entirely formed from spiritual power, exuding a transcendent aura that seemed capable of suppressing all paths.
"You have a good eye. It is indeed a mental technique I evolved, and its power is somewhat unexpectedly good."
He originally intended to comprehend the bronze coffin and create a fist technique, but instead of comprehending the fist technique, he evolved a spiritual secret art.
This mysterious technique relies entirely on the overwhelming power of the Three-Life Coffin's Daoist aura to crush everything! Under this overwhelming force that suppresses all Daos, few souls can withstand such power, making it a kind of primordial spirit attack technique.
In the ancient times, there was a primordial spirit sword technique called the "Pacifying Chaos Technique," which used primordial spirit to forge a sword embryo, specifically targeting primordial spirits and ignoring physical defenses. He Lang found his inspiration from this technique.
The three bronze coffins collide; how many people in the trilogy world can stop them!
"sharp!"
Just after Ye Fan finished sighing, another streak of crimson light flew over from afar, rushing in like a fiery cloud and embedding itself in the stone wall.
Ye Fan was somewhat surprised. Was this place really a treasure trove? Just now, a spirit-connecting dagger flew over, and now another one had arrived. After digging it open, he discovered that this spirit-connecting weapon was actually a bead, and he happily put it away.
A moment later, another purple cloud flew over and pierced the stone wall. At this moment, Ye Fan also felt that something was wrong. One after another, spiritual weapons fell here, which was definitely not a coincidence.
"He Lang, there seems to be something unusual about this stone wall. Why don't we dig it open and take a look?"
Ye Fan stared at the stone wall, his eyes shining.
He Lang knew that the treasure basin of the demon race was located inside, and Yan Ruyu was probably inside. Naturally, He Lang was also interested in the treasure basin. This treasure could be called a great treasure, capable of attracting rare and precious materials. It was an absolute treasure!
"good!"
He Lang's eyes also lit up, and he activated his divine power. Layers of golden divine radiance emerged from his body, transforming into golden divine flames that burned the stone wall, causing it to crack rapidly. In the blink of an eye, a large hole appeared in the stone wall.
Someone in the sky swept their divine sense across the area and saw two children burning stones. They couldn't help but shake their heads, thinking, "Whose children are so foolish!" They quickly turned their attention elsewhere.
He Lang was burning the stone wall when suddenly something strange happened. Dao patterns appeared on the ground, eroding his divine power.
"Friends, could you please stop?"
A voice as beautiful as heavenly music rang out, and amidst the fluctuations of Dao patterns, a peerless beauty, whose beauty surpassed all others, appeared in the stone mountain. Before her stood a treasure basin, as if carved from green jade, radiating a green glow, with a vigorous life force emerging from within. The Dao patterns blocked this extraordinary aura.
Beside the beauty stood a figure familiar to both of them—none other than Pang Bo. However, Pang Bo's face was now covered in demonic markings, making him incredibly eerie and exuding the aura of a great demon, with green light emanating from his eyes.
"Pang Bo! What did you do to Pang Bo?"
Ye Fan called out softly to Pang Bo's figure.
"How about you two come in and talk?" Pang Bo spoke, his voice tinged with a hint of weariness.
He Lang hadn't expected that the old demon who had possessed Pang Bo would actually come here. No wonder he had searched high and low for traces of the Five Finger Stone Mountain on Pang Bo's sleeve in the original story, but hadn't found any.
This is probably the butterfly effect; he attacked the ancient palace too early, and many things changed.
Ye Fan looked at He Lang. Although he was very worried about Pang Bo, he also knew that something was wrong. Looking at the arrangement, the two of them had no advantage at all!
"Can."
He Lang agreed without changing his expression, which surprised the two people in the array space inside the stone mountain.
The Dao patterns flickered and opened a portal as tall as a person. After He Lang and Ye Fan walked in together, the portal disappeared without attracting any attention.
"This humble woman, Yan Ruyu, greets you two fellow Daoists." The stunningly beautiful woman spoke, her voice, like heavenly music, echoing throughout the space, ethereal and otherworldly.
"He Lang".
"Ye Fan".
He Lang and Ye Fan also revealed their names.
"Princess Yan Ruyu, descendant of the Demon Emperor, I have long admired your name. I did not expect that your demon race had already set up Dao patterns here. It seems that the outsiders' plan to obtain the Demon Emperor's imperial weapon is going to fail."
He Lang glanced at the demon princess a few times and said calmly.
Yan Ruyu truly lived up to her name; she possessed unparalleled beauty, a graceful and upright figure, and an ethereal yet pure and immaculate temperament.
Ye Fan looked at the old demon occupying Pang Bo with great concern, but did not make any rash moves.
"Oh? Fellow Daoist is He Lang, the newly appointed candidate for Holy Son of the Yao Guang Holy Land?"
A hint of surprise appeared on Yan Ruyu's flawless face as she scrutinized He Lang, growing increasingly alarmed with each glance.
She had already broken through to the Four Extremes Secret Realm, but when facing He Lang, she felt a sense of crisis, as if his body contained unimaginable divine power.
"It is indeed I. Fairy Yan invited my brother and me in. I wonder what we have to say. I'm sure Fairy Yan already knows why we've come. This senior has taken over my brother's body, and I hope that this senior from the demon race can leave his body without harming him."
He Lang calmly said to Yan Ruyu, while Ye Fanxin, who was standing to the side, was on tenterhooks. Only now did he understand why He Lang had brought up the matter of the Demon Emperor's weapon as soon as he came in.
This is a threat!
If the powerful beings outside discover the arrangements here, the demon princess's scheme will be thwarted.
Ye Fan was also surprised by He Lang's status as a candidate for Holy Son. No, his good brother was doing so well.
"I have merged with this body using a secret method, and now I cannot leave it. I cannot fulfill your request."
Yan Ruyu remained silent, but the old demon who had possessed Pang Bo spoke, his voice hoarse and filled with a sense of decline.
The old demon stared at He Lang, his eyes flickering with green light like will-o'-the-wisps. He glanced at He Lang with some apprehension. If he hadn't seen He Lang suppress the Taoist priest's mental technique earlier, he would have attacked He Lang long ago!
"Then I'll choose another one. You cannot erase Pang Bo's soul. You can share a body, and you can control the body, but you cannot harm him. You need to swear an oath."
This was his goal and the best outcome. Pang Bo could use this opportunity to observe the old demon's cultivation and enjoy the protagonist's treatment of having a personal old man by his side. At that time, he could also get the Azure Emperor's Scripture and the Demon Emperor's Nine Slashes for free.
The old demon also has a glimmer of hope. Once he recovers to a certain extent, he can rebuild his physical body, and neither side will suffer a loss.
"Young man of the human race, do you really think you've got me cornered?"
The old demon exuded a terrifying killing intent, and a terrifying spectacle of mountains of corpses and seas of blood appeared behind him.
He Lang remained calm and composed. A clear blue sky appeared behind him and pressed down, instantly obliterating the strange phenomenon behind the old demon.
"Strange phenomena and stars illuminate the blue sky."
The old demon's eyes were somewhat solemn. This human junior certainly had the right to be arrogant!
"I've truly got you cornered. My Dao Palace deities are outside. If I so desire, the true powerhouses of my Yao Guang Holy Land can traverse the heavens and descend here in an instant. You should know what that means."
After suppressing the old demon's murderous intent, He Lang spoke calmly.
Upon hearing this, Lao Yao and Yan Ruyu's expressions also turned serious. Of course, they understood what that meant: the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron of Yao Guang Holy Land might also be brought here!
I promise you.
The old demon frowned, and after a moment he made a great oath of faith.
"A wise choice, let's meet our friends!"
The old demon reluctantly released Pang Bo's soul. When Pang Bo saw He Lang and Ye Fan, he was very excited. After listening to He Lang's suggestion, he also agreed to the plan.
After a while, Pang Bo returned to the corner of his sea of consciousness, where the old demon had taken over his body.
