Chapter 839 Attacking the Cult Master
The third-level heavenly realm, the headquarters of the Demon Cult.
Outside the secret room where the leader was in seclusion, Baili Xuanji and the third elder looked at each other. Both sides wanted to speak but stopped, as if they were waiting for each other to speak first.
After a long time, the third elder spoke first: "How long has it been?"
"One month." Baili Xuanji replied.
A simple question and answer from a man and a woman contains a lot of information.
In the past, the descendants of the Demon Emperor practiced, and they even came out to walk around every now and then. Since a month ago, he has never walked out of the secret room again.
It would be fine if it was just like this. The third-level strong man practiced for a long time, and it was normal to stay in seclusion for ten years. The real problem is that since the Demon Emperor's successor walked in a month ago, Baili Xuanji and the Third Elder have no longer sensed the breath of the leader.
How to say that feeling is like the descendant of the Demon Emperor disappeared out of thin air.
Baili Xuanji and the third elder both wanted to enter the secret room to find out what was going on, but they were worried. After all, the descendant of the Demon Emperor was the nominal leader, and the leader was in seclusion and could not trespass without being summoned.
In the secret room, the white-haired bird man sat cross-legged, his eyes dulled, and even his breathing stopped.
If someone stands next to him, it is not difficult to see that this is a walking zombie who has lost his sense of self.
The reason for this situation is that Zhao Hao went to the Eight Desolations and Six Heirs. In that time, the deity and the clone lost contact with the clone. Zhao Ritian, who was in the Eight Desolations and Six Heirs, could not sense the existence of the incarnation outside his body, nor could he control the clone, so that the white-haired bird man entered a state of false death.
At this time, whether Baili Xuanji or the Third Elder, you only need to push the door and enter to remove the diorama.
The two of them had long noticed the abnormality, but they could not report it because during this period, the Dongji Demon Lord went out to discuss a major event with Yao Ji.
Today, the third elder spoke, Baili Xuanji followed the topic: "In the past month, my subordinates have not sensed the leader's aura, so I would like to ask the third elder to come in and investigate."
"I'm worried too much. The leader may be practicing the turtle breath technique. It's not uncommon to have no breath fluctuations." The third elder was calm on the surface, but secretly scolded the other party for being cunning in his heart. As long as she went in to investigate, she would have to be charged with trespassing into the leader's retreat. The elders and guardians who regarded the descendants of the Demon Emperor as their spiritual pillar could spray her to death with saliva.
"Three Elders, our sect leader has great supernatural powers. He has seen it with his own eyes in Qingyun Realm. The sect leader used a technique of escaping the ground, which is no less than that of a terrestrial beast." Although Baili Xuanji's position is lower than that of the other party, he is a popular man in front of the general protector, and invisibly heaviered his tone: "If the sect leader used the technique of escaping the ground, he had already escaped thousands of miles away. When the master blames him, you and I will not be able to afford it."
The third elder understood the other party's subtext and said in a negotiated tone: "Then... let's open this door together?"
This is to take the blame for both of them, both of which are both merit and demerit.
Baili Xuanji nodded, then reached out and knocked on the door three times, and said aloud: "Master, I have something to ask for attention!"
Under normal circumstances, even if a strong man who reaches the seven-star level cannot come out of seclusion, he will still be fine to respond to a few words. However, there is no response in the secret room at the moment, as if there is no one inside, which really makes people suspicious.
Baili Xuanji made a quick decision and exchanged a look with the third elder. The two of them stretched out one hand and pressed it on the door, exerting force together to shake the door open.
What caught my eye was a huge and gorgeous screen.
The two of them walked around the screen and saw the Demon Emperor successor sitting cross-legged on the ground.
The leader of the Demon Sect turned his back to the two of them, without any breath of life on his body, just like a real person who had exhausted his life and sat in his transformation.
Dead?
The third elder was shocked and stood there in a daze.
Two possibilities flashed through her mind. One is that the leader encountered great trouble during his retreat and practiced himself to death. This situation is not uncommon in the Demon Sect. The demon clan pursues rapid success and has great side effects. There are many demon clans who have caused sudden death in history by practicing demon skills. Another possibility is that the descendant of the Demon Emperor committed suicide. The leader was unwilling to be a puppet, unwilling to marry the Spirit Clan, and eventually seeking a shortcoming.
Baili Xuanji had another plan and stared at the back of the leader. His eyes suddenly shrank, as if he had noticed something.
Just walk over and look at the front of the Demon Emperor's successor, and he can verify his conjecture.
Just as Baili Xuanji took a step and just walked two steps away, the lifeless descendant of the Demon Emperor suddenly reacted.
But when the white-haired birdman was emitting energy fluctuations again, a powerful breath of life flowed into his body.
He was like an old devil who had been sleeping for thousands of years, suddenly awakened.
"Who dares to trek into this retreat place!"
I heard the Demon Emperor's successor shouting, like a dragon's roar, which made people's ears tingle.
The sound was extremely penetrating, and it was at least ten miles away. Many people in the Magic Cult's headquarters could hear it clearly.
At the same time, a black sword broke through the air and transformed into countless sharp sword lights.
Baili Xuanji and the third elder's faces changed drastically. They were forced by the sword light so hard that they dared to cross the line. They used all their strength to take out the secret room.
However, the extremely agile black sword did not mean to let go of the two of them, and chased them out in a fierce manner.
A man and a woman dare not fight back, so she had to passively defend, and she was beaten to pieces after one encounter.
At this moment, several figures flew out from a distance, namely the Great Elder, the Second Elder, and the Third, Fourth, Five, and Sixth Dharma Protector. As for the Great and Second Dharma Protectors, they followed the Dongji Demon Lord to do business.
Seeing Baili Xuanji and the Third Elder were so embarrassed by the black flying sword, the Third and Sixth Princess showed joy on their faces. They saw the leader's methods for the first time. A hint of relief also flashed through the elder's eyes. He soon stabilized his emotions and shouted loudly: "Stop, who can tell me what happened?"
The Demon Sect has an old tradition, and the general protector is not here, so the great elder has the final say.
At this moment, the Great Elder spoke, which was still very intimidating.
At this time, the white-haired bird man walked out of the secret room. He glared at Baili Xuanji and the third elder, and said indignantly: "These two people are ill-intentioned. When I was in seclusion and practiced to a critical moment, I opened the door and tried to attack me from behind!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
The crime of attacking the leader is too great, even the Demon Lord of the East Ji cannot take the blame.
The charming third elder's eyes turned dark and felt like he was plotted by the seemingly young leader.
The situation in front of you is equivalent to applying yellow mud on the chrysanthemums. It’s not shi or shi!
The three guardians reacted quickly, ran to the door of the secret room to check, and said aloud: "Your Majesty Elder, the door of the secret room seems intact, but the door bolt inside is broken. What the leader said is not false, and someone trespassed into the secret room and interfered with the leader's retreat."
