Chapter 318 Suspected Demon Lord
Xu Guan's consciousness was attached to the small golden sword, and he multitasked. More than ten small swords scattered in different directions, exploring the inside of the iceberg at extremely fast flying speeds.

The inside of the iceberg is like a small world composed entirely of ice and cold air, and also like a crystal palace.

If it weren't for the excessive amount of demonic energy that destroyed the beauty, this place really wouldn't look like a demon cave.

In addition to the demonic energy, there were also many ice demons inside. As if they had received orders, they kept surrounding the intruding golden sword.

These ice demons seem to be blessed by some source of power inside the iceberg, and are more powerful than the ice demons outside.

In just a moment, Xu Guan's golden swords were destroyed one by one.

Of course, this is also because the iceberg demonic energy cut off the connection between Xu Guan's body and the flying sword, making it impossible to continuously replenish his mental power.

Xu Guan didn't gain anything.

One of the small golden swords finally found the demon king somewhere inside the iceberg.

And
A giant mass of demonic energy!
The demonic energy swirled and gathered on a frozen throne, with a black dome one hundred feet high.

The surrounding demonic energy seemed to turn into human faces, constantly howling and mourning.

The demon king stood under the throne, standing quietly, turning a deaf ear to Xu Guan's arrival of the golden sword, as if waiting for something.

"What is this stuff?!"

Xu Guan found the source of the fear in his heart, which was the giant egg in front of him.

There seems to be a great terror brewing in this.

Before Xu Guan could make more observations, the demons chasing him from behind had already arrived.

Xu Guan also knew that his little sword had no chance of leaving smoothly. At the last moment, his remaining consciousness controlled the little sword and simply shot it straight towards the dome on the throne.

The demon king below still made no move, allowing Xu Guan's small sword to shoot without any hindrance.

The small sword sank into the dome in an instant, making no sound and seemingly not causing any substantial damage.

The next moment, with only a little bit of consciousness left, Xu Guan felt himself falling into an endless abyss, and the ice almost froze everything.

Xu Guan also quickly lost control of the flying sword.

At the end of his consciousness, he could clearly feel that the spiritual energy on the flying sword was being attracted and swallowed by the dome.

An aura was brewing in it, and Xu Guan sensed it.

There is indeed a creature in this dome, and it is most likely an evil spirit!
Thinking that Feijian's spiritual energy would be better to make some contribution instead of being devoured by the opponent as nourishment.

With a thought, Xu Guan directly detonated the flying sword, and the remaining spiritual energy on it instantly formed a spiritual shock and exploded inside the dome.

And the faint consciousness that followed Xu Guan was also wiped out.

Xu Guan couldn't see the result of the mental energy impact. He had lost his perspective of exploring the inside of the iceberg.

But considering that the dome is so special, it should not be damaged much.

When he came back to his senses, the old man Dongji and the master of Wanxi Mansion were looking at him.

"My little friend's mental strength is really impressive. I'm afraid he has killed many evil spirits before joining the alliance." The old man from Dongji exclaimed.

He knew that the dozen or so small spiritual swords were not so easy to condense, and it seemed that the small spiritual swords that Xu Guan had condensed were particularly powerful.

"What did you find inside, little friend?" The palace master on the side was more concerned about the results of Xu Guan's investigation.

Xu Gu'an nodded and quickly recounted the situation inside the iceberg, especially the demonic dome on the throne guarded by the demon king, and the aura within it.

"I wonder if that has something to do with the Demon Lord?" the old man from Dongji asked.

Xu Guan shook his head. After all, he had never seen the Demon Lord before, and he didn't dare to tell whether that aura belonged to the Demon Lord.

At this moment, the iceberg suddenly erupted with energy fluctuations, dissipating in circles.

The next moment, Xu Guan and the three of them felt locked.

It didn't come from the demon king, but from another existence.

Immediately afterwards, an overwhelming terrifying shock swept over.

Everything was washed away in an instant, the cold air, the evil spirit, the air, even the glacier under the three people turned into powder in an instant and disappeared directly on the sea horizon!

hum!
Xu Guan's whole body was covered with golden light, and layers of fire instincts were wrapped around him. Five fire dragons stood in front of him to resist the sudden and terrifying impact.

Immediately, the fire dragon only held on for a breath, and all of them were quickly annihilated, leaving only the inner layer of golden flames that flickered on and off to resist, and were quickly extinguished.

On the lower level was Xu Guan's body-protecting master's energy, but it couldn't block anything and was quickly penetrated.

When the impact of this energy really hit, Xu Guan seemed to have returned to the time when he was an ordinary person. He was in the vast ocean and could only drift with the waves, unable to do anything.

As waves of energy hit hard, the divine patterns on Xu Guan's body burst into brilliant light, but it was still difficult to resist the wave of energy.

Xu Guan was directly rushed thousands of miles away under this impact!

He barely managed to stabilize his body in the air. He was seriously injured. He relied solely on the immortality properties of the divine curse to stabilize his injuries. He kept going back and forth between healing and being injured.

On the other side, the old man from Dongji and the master of Wanxi Mansion were also staggering around, being swept away by the energy shock and missing.

Xu Guan released his senses and just noticed the traces of the two people.

"Let's go!" The old man from Dongji heard the voice.

Needless to say, Xu Guan was already running away with all his strength.

Being able to emit such a level of energy impact, no matter what kind of existence the opponent is, it is far beyond what he can deal with.

Fortunately, the three of them left and the other party had no intention of chasing them out.

The three of them stopped after retreating outside the glacier.

The master of Wanxi Mansion did not hesitate to cross his legs on top of an iceberg and adjusted his breathing with a pale face.

It was obvious that the wave of energy shock just now had hit him extremely hard, and the injuries were really serious.

The old man from Dongji on the side was no exception. His body was broken and in urgent need of recovery.

"You meditate and I will protect you." Xu Guan said to the old man from Dongji.

"Thank you, little friend." Seeing that Xu Guan was indeed in the best condition among the three, the old man from Dongji immediately stopped being pretentious and sat down cross-legged with his eyes closed.

Xu Guan dispersed the golden flames all over his body, and the divine patterns on his body also faded away.

After exiting the second stage of the divine curse, Xu Guan let out a sigh of relief.

This wave of fierce fighting and pursuit plus running away took a lot of energy from him.

Although he seemed to have no injuries on his body, waves of weakness were still coming over him, and he couldn't help but sit down on a big ice stone.

"I haven't felt this powerless for a long time." Xu Guan shook his head secretly.

He originally thought that after his cultivation reached the master level, he would be able to conquer the world.

The situation he encountered today told him that he was not invincible yet.

It was still difficult for him to deal with such a demonic realm.

"You have to continue to practice. The master level is not the end of your cultivation."

Then he thought about the giant egg on the throne.

He judged that the energy impact just now was released by the consciousness in the dome.

It was probably because he detonated the small sword inside that he angered the consciousness.

Is that the Demon Lord?
Xu Guan couldn't be sure, he could only say that it was very likely.

After all, even the Demon Lord couldn't release the intensity of the energy impact just now.Thinking about it, it could only be the legendary Demon Lord.

Thinking about the sudden upgrade of his copy of the Glacier Demon Realm, I'm afraid it has something to do with the demon king's resurrection.

Maybe the boss of this copy was originally the demon king, but after upgrading, he will probably become the resurrected demon king.

If the Demon Lord really appears in this world, I don’t know if the Demon Slayer Alliance has the power to destroy it.
The existence of the Demon Lord harms not only one city or one place, but the entire human race!

Regarding this, Xu Guan, who had just been exposed to it and was blown away, had a deep understanding of this.

The existence of the Demon Lord also gave him a sense of urgency.

He must continue to improve his strength as soon as possible, otherwise he will not be able to compete with enemies of this level.

There were many thoughts in his mind, Xu Guan took out meat supplements from his inventory while thinking to supplement his own consumption.

It was not until half a day passed that the old man Dongji and the master of Wanxi Mansion woke up one after another.

The injuries on their bodies are still there, but after half a day of recuperation, the injuries have been temporarily controlled.

"Is there anything unusual in the glacier?" The old man from Dongji asked immediately after opening his eyes.

Xu Guan shook his head. It was very quiet at the edge of the glacier. There were no pursuers and not even many monsters.

"Leave here first, Bai Mansion. Wanxi Mansion is no longer a place to stay for a long time. We need to make plans as soon as possible." The old man from Dongji nodded, and then said to the master of Wanxi Mansion beside him.

The energy impact just now has proved how dangerous this glacier land is now.

If it covers the location of Wanxi Mansion, I am afraid that the entire Wanxi Mansion will cease to exist in an instant, and they will be unable to stop it.

The master of the palace obviously knew this too. He sighed, nodded and said, "I will ask everyone in the mansion to evacuate temporarily until the problem here is solved."

The problem in his mouth was naturally not the ordinary evil devil, but the demon king and the existence in the iceberg.

"I will report this matter to the alliance as soon as possible. If the Demon Lord is really born, we must take it with the highest degree of attention." The old man from Dongji continued.

"When you need help, let me know." The palace master said and flew away alone.

The old man from Dongji then thanked Xu Guan and left in a hurry.

Things about the Demon Lord were too important, and he didn't dare to delay for a moment.

This time the demon-killing team was disbanded on the spot.

Xu Guan turned around and looked at the glacier land, shook his head and returned to Huangtian City.

"grown ups."

In the courtyard, Wu Guangxin heard the noise and hurriedly got up and walked out of the room.

"Get ready, it's time to go back." Xu Guan said.

He has stayed in this area in the north for a long enough time. Now that his cultivation has exceeded the master level, it is time to return to his own territory.

This time, the overflow of evil spirits in the glacier area has gradually become uncontrollable.

He was also worried that in places other than the glacier area, the same demonic flames would surge into the sky and bring huge disasters.

He was somewhat worried about his Xianlin Town.

Even with Hong Shen, Tang Hongtian and the two powerful masters were not absolutely safe.

After all, the number of demon king-level demons in the Glacier Demon Realm far exceeded everyone's expectations.

If he hadn't been in charge, a random demon king would be enough to put Xianlin Town under great threat.

"Yes." Wu Guangxin nodded.

The movement deep in the glacier did not end with the departure of Xu Guan and others.

In many icebergs, ice demons resurrected, like prehistoric giants emerging from them and roaring towards the sky.

Their constant appearance also stirred up the demonic energy on the dome to become deeper and deeper, and the cold air was getting heavier.

As if they had been summoned, they left their respective territories one after another and flew deep into the glacier.

This is true for both ordinary evil spirits and devils.

Their final destination was the huge iceberg that Xu Gu'an and the others had explored before.

The iceberg and the dome's demonic energy are connected together, like a wall covering the sky.

After those evil spirits arrived, they stopped and lurked near the iceberg. They spontaneously alerted the surroundings and seemed to be guarding important things.

And these ice demons did not come alone, they also summoned more monsters.

Tens of millions of them flew from the sky one by one, emerged from the ice sea, and came here.

At the top of the iceberg is the devil.

He sat on the ice like a human being, looking into the distance with a pair of scarlet magic eyes, thinking about something.

Suddenly, a heavy sound came from inside the iceberg, like a heavy hammer hitting it.

If you listen carefully and distinguish it, this heavy sound is like a heart beating.

Except for the indifferent demon king, all the evil spirits and all the monsters lowered their heads towards the iceberg at this moment, standing quietly, motionless even if their bodies were frozen by the cold wind and frost.

Three days later, Xu Guan left Huangtian City with Wu Guangxin.

After three days of cultivation, Xu Guan's weakness due to the explosion of his seed has been completely gone, and his combat strength has been restored to seven or eight points.

He actually gained a lot from the battle with the Demon Lord. Not only did he consolidate his newly achieved master level cultivation, but his many abilities also became more consistent, and his control became more skillful and perfect.

The two flew faster and faster, and soon crossed the Yubei area and headed towards the Jiaochuan area.

While passing through the Sinan area, Xu Guan suddenly noticed something strange.

Before he could stop, a sword light shot up into the sky from below, extremely sharp.

Xu Guan frowned, he realized that the sword light was pointed directly at him.

He immediately punched downwards, and the golden flame energy collided with the sword light at a thousand meters altitude, and the energy surged.

Wu Guangxin on the side was directly blown away by the shock wave and fell into the large lake in the distance.

"what's the situation?!"

Wu Guangxin crawled out of the lake in embarrassment, waved his hand to kill the greedy giant crocodile following behind him, and looked to the sky with lingering fear.

If he hadn't activated the cursed body protection in time just now, I'm afraid he would be seriously injured now.

The power of that sword is definitely above the master level.

In the sky, Xu Guan blocked the sword and remained motionless.

He took out a seemingly ordinary triangular stone from his arms, about the size of half a fist.

There was a strange movement on the stone at this moment, as if something was being sensed, and the direction was coming from below.

This stone is the fragment of the Celestial Slate that Xu Guan had previously obtained.

According to the description of the item, if you collect ten Celestial Stone Slabs, you can go find the Celestial Being's secret treasure!
Xu Guan currently has two pieces on his body, but he has not discovered the whereabouts of the other Celestial Slates in recent years, so he has not paid much attention to them.

According to what Tang Hongtian said at the beginning, there is some kind of connection between the stone slabs between heaven and man.

People holding the Celestial Slate will sense the presence of each other when they are close to each other.

It was the first time since he got the stone tablet that he had a feeling.
