Qinghe Immortal Clan.

Following behind "Taoist Lingxu" were Zheng Xingyun and several other Nascent Soul cultivators from the sect. Two of them were relatively unfamiliar faces, and it was the first time that Song Qingming saw them.

After just a quick glance at the people present, "Taoist Lingxu" waved his hand and released dozens of formation flags, which fell into the hands of Song Qingming and others present.

"This is the Tiangang Demon Subduing Array that I specially refined. There are a total of thirty-six array flags. The selected people will each hold one and go with me to set up the array. The rest will stay at the mountain gate."

After saying that, "Taoist Lingxu" immediately turned around and walked out of the hall. Song Qingming and others who were assigned the formation flags also followed quickly. They soon arrived at the canyon in the back mountain where the true demons from the upper realm were sealed.

After arriving here, "Taoist Lingxu" sat cross-legged in mid-air.

A moment later, a figure flew out from the valley and landed next to "Taoist Lingxu". This person looked 70% similar to him. He was the incarnation of "Taoist Lingxu" that Song Qingming had seen that year.

After this incarnation appeared, he immediately nodded slightly to the "Taoist Lingxu" beside him, and then a very powerful voice was heard by everyone.

"Start setting up the formation!"

Following the order from their master "Taoist Lingxu", Song Qingming and others flew high into the sky and surrounded "Taoist Lingxu" in mid-air. The closest ones were the six Nascent Soul cultivators led by Zheng Xingyun.

After everyone sat down cross-legged, a ray of light immediately shot up into the sky from the formation flags in their hands. Thirty-six rays of light slowly combined in the sky to form a huge circular formation diagram.

This "Tian Gang Demon Subduing Array" is a high-level demon subduing array meticulously crafted by the master "Taoist Lingxu", and its grade has reached the lower fifth level.

In the world of cultivating immortals, even in holy places for cultivation of the human race like the "East Phoenix Kingdom", spiritual objects above level four are rare, let alone level five formations that can deal with the true demons from the upper realm.

In order to refine this "Tian Gang Demon Subduing Array", "Taoist Lingxu" spent hundreds of years traveling across the five continents and four seas to search for various high-level materials, and finally succeeded in refining this array.

Over the past six months, Song Qingming and others have participated in the exercises of activating the formation many times. This is not the first time they have seen this "Tiangang Demon-Subduing Formation".

As soon as the "Tian Gang Demon Subduing Formation" was formed, it illuminated the sky above the entire "Yuxuan Island". Even the villagers of "Yanhu Village" who were farming at the foot of the mountain saw the abnormality in the sky through the formation.

Because these villagers often dealt with monks, they had long been accustomed to the situation on the island. When they saw the unusual movement in the sky, they hurriedly put away their farm tools and returned home with their curious children.

In addition to the villagers living on the island, various birds, beasts and fish around the island were also attracted by the scene before them.

A few wild geese in the air had just approached the sky above the island when they were suddenly pushed away by a strange force and almost fell from the sky.

Seeing this, the other seabirds that had arrived immediately scattered and just circled around the island, not daring to approach easily anymore.

At this moment, on a deserted island hundreds of miles away from "Yuxuan Island", a small green snake was raising its cute little head, staring blankly at the strange thing in the distant sky.

The little green snake was so absorbed in its gaze that it completely failed to notice that above its head there was a large grey bird flying quickly towards it.

Seeing that the prey had not yet discovered itself, a hint of murderous intent suddenly flashed across the gray eagle's eyes. It opened its sharp fangs and claws and accelerated towards the green snake.

Just as the gray eagle was thinking about where to find to slowly enjoy the delicious food in front of him, the little green snake, which was still in a daze, suddenly turned its head and gave it a very cold look.

There was only a loud "sizzling" sound, and a moment later, only a pile of scattered gray feathers was left on the ground.

After having a hearty meal, the little green snake wagged its tail and turned into a very well-behaved little snake, then turned around and left.

After a while, the little green snake came to a huge rock on the deserted island, and then its body passed directly through the huge rock outside and entered a somewhat dark space.

After seeing the figure of the little green snake appear, a black gas suddenly appeared beside it, and then the little green snake was rolled up by the black gas and came into a somewhat slender hand.

"There is a lot of commotion on the island right now. It should be that the Taixu Sect is preparing to activate the formation. It seems that the news that was spread before was not wrong!"

The voice was very soft, as if it came from a woman.

As soon as the woman finished speaking, an older voice sounded not far from her, smiling happily:

"Haha! As you expected, after waiting for so long, our chance has finally come. As long as we can rescue the Demon Lord, we, the demon cultivators, will have no rivals in this world, and we won't have to act so secretly every time we go out.

It is estimated that it won’t be long before we will have the opportunity to follow the Demon Lord to ascend to the upper realm, and we won’t have to worry about our life span anymore.”

"Brother, you are right. We have been preparing for this for so many years, just to have a chance to sneak into the upper realm.

Otherwise, if I were to follow the others and try to break into the outer void alone, I'm afraid I would most likely fail and end up dying in vain."

Hearing the conversation between the two people beside her, the woman spoke softly again:

"You practice the way of the devil, which is not tolerated by the laws of nature in this world. It is difficult for you to ascend normally like other righteous cultivators. If you want to sneak into the upper realm, you can only do as I say.

It won’t be long before they open the seal themselves, and then it will be your turn to show off your abilities.”

"Oh! What do you mean by that? Don't you intend to take action yourself?"

Hearing one of them questioning, the woman chuckled and said, "Haha! As long as Lingxuzi takes the initiative to open the seal formation, he will definitely be restrained by the formation.

Moreover, at this time, the power of the mountain protection formation on the island will be weakened because of the formation. With you here, it is enough to deal with others, so I should not be needed.

Don't worry, I have already gone in ahead of time. When the critical moment comes, I will naturally take action.

As long as we can rescue the man on the island, I will make it clear to him that I will bring you back to the Holy Realm in the future!"

"Okay then! It's settled. Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, we have to give it a try for the sake of our future ascension plan."

"Hahaha."
-
After more than ten days of continuous casting, the "Tian Gang Demon Subduing Array" above everyone's heads finally took shape, forming a complete golden circular magic array above the canyon.

Seeing that the formation had taken shape, "Taoist Lingxu" who was sitting cross-legged in mid-air stood up and handed the formation flag in his hand to the incarnation beside him.

"I'm going to go downstairs to open the Tianding Suolong Formation. I'll leave the top to you. After I open the formation, you guys will immediately cast a spell to seal the formation.

Remember, no matter what happens, you must hold on to the battle flag firmly and do not be disturbed by the true demon spirit."

After giving a few words of advice to everyone, "Taoist Lingxu" flashed away from the spot and fell into a bottomless canyon.

After the figure of "Taoist Lingxu" left, the faces of everyone present instantly became nervous.

After the formation is completed, it is time for them to face off against the true demon from the upper realm.

Less than a quarter of an hour later, four huge bronze tripods suddenly flew up from the bottom of the canyon. Then, a very strong demonic aura emerged from the canyon, making Song Qingming and others feel a chill in their hearts.

After a while, a man in a green robe who was standing not far from Song Qingming suddenly had his eyes turned black, and his whole body sank into the pitch-black void.

"Ah! Where is this?"

The man in green robe, sensing something strange around him, shouted hurriedly, only to find that everyone around him suddenly disappeared, leaving only him alone. A look of panic immediately appeared on his face.

Before he could figure out the situation around him, a huge demon suddenly appeared in the air before his eyes and looked towards him.

This demon was over a hundred feet tall, with a green face, fangs, purple hair, blue eyes, and two tall horns on his head. He just let out a breath and blew the green-robed man away.

"Calm your mind and concentrate, and you will be immune to all evil. Retreat!"

Just when the man in green robe felt dizzy and at a loss, a deafening sound suddenly rang in his ears, shaking out the surrounding darkness and quickly waking him up from the brink of collapse.

"Junior brother, quickly recite the Heart Concentration Technique to resist the True Demon's Yuanshen."

The green-robed man who had just woken up, heard the reminder from his senior brother Fu Jinglong, and hurriedly clenched the formation flag in his hand, began to calm his mind and cast a spell to form an invisible protective shield beside him.

Song Qingming, who had not been disturbed by the devil yet, saw this situation and quickly recited the meditation formula taught to him by his master "Taoist Lingxu", isolating the evil spirit outside the shield.

This true demon from the upper realm can interfere with the mind of a cultivator simply by attaching a trace of its soul to the demonic energy. Song Qingming had experienced this when he first came to "Yuxuan Island".

However, at that time, his cultivation level was only the fifth level of Golden Core, and his soul was far from being as powerful as it is now. That’s why he was easily invaded by the true demon’s soul just like the green-robed man next to him.

In addition to the green-robed man, there were seven or eight other Taixu Sect disciples with lower cultivation levels at the scene, who were also harassed by the Demon-Suppressing Spirit to some extent.

Fortunately, Senior Brother Fu Jinglong and several other Nascent Soul masters nearby discovered it in time and cast a spell to wake them up quickly, preventing them from being deceived by the devil and dropping the flags in their hands.

The mountain in front of "Taixu Gate" is where the mountain gate is.

Two disciples of the "Taixu Sect" were sitting in front of the mountain gate formation, carefully looking outside the formation ahead.

Suddenly, a flash of light appeared, and then a man in white appeared beside them.

"Disciple has met Master Liu!"

When the two men saw Liu Yang suddenly coming, a hint of surprise immediately appeared on their faces, and they hurriedly stepped forward and saluted him.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yang nodded and said to them, "Get up! I'm here to check if there's anything wrong at the mountain gate. You guys are guarding here, have you seen anything unusual happen? Has anyone else been here besides me?" "Uncle Liu, don't worry, there's nothing unusual at the mountain gate. No one has been here today except you."

"Well! That's good. Thank you for your hard work."

Hearing the other party's answer, Liu Yang showed a look of satisfaction on his face, but in the next moment, Liu Yang's figure suddenly flashed past the two disciples, and then their eyes blurred and they fell down silently.

After doing all this, a strange smile appeared on "Liu Yang"'s face. He then raised a token and placed it directly into the formation in front of him.

After a while, a gap appeared at the mountain gate formation, and then a small green snake rushed in from outside.

"Nothing happened!"

Hearing what the little green snake in his hand suddenly said, "Liu Yang" quickly replied with confidence:
"Don't worry! Even Lingxuzi can't recognize the shapeshifting magic on us, let alone those of them who are only at the Jindan level. Now everyone has gone to the back mountain."

After "Liu Yang" finished speaking, he reached out and held the little green snake in his hand, and then quickly closed the mountain gate formation.

At this time, a woman in yellow who was sitting on one side of the "Taixu Palace" suddenly felt a slight fluctuation coming from the magic circle in front of her, and she quickly stood up.

"Junior Sister Zhu, what's wrong?"

Seeing Liu Yang coming towards her, the woman in yellow quickly said, "Senior Brother Liu, I just noticed some movement coming from the mountain gate formation. It seems like something has passed through the formation?"

"Oh! Qingyun and the others are guarding the mountain gate, so there shouldn't be any problems. Could it be that some monster beasts outside are harassing them, so they cast a spell to activate the formation themselves?

The mountain protection formation has been a little strange recently. Why do these strange things keep happening? Forget it, I'll go and take a look with Junior Brother Lin!"

After Liu Yang finished speaking, he thought for a moment and felt a little worried, so he walked out of the hall with a short man beside him.

After a while, the two arrived in front of the mountain gate.

"Disciple greets the two uncles!"

Seeing that the two people who bowed in front of him were fine, Liu Yang breathed a sigh of relief. He first stepped forward to check the formation, and then asked the two people:

"Did something touch the formation just now?"

"Reporting to Uncle Master, a few low-level monsters with no eyes have come again, and we have already sent them away."

"Oh! I see. There has been some incident on the mountain these few days. You should pay more attention. No matter what happens, you must inform us first. Do not open the formation without permission."

"Uncle Master, rest assured. I understand!"

Liu Yang and the other man nodded slightly, and soon turned into a beam of light and left the place.

After Liu Yang and the others had gone far away, a strange smile suddenly flashed across the faces of the two disciples, and they slowly sat down again! -
In the back mountain of "Taixu Gate", in the Demon Sealing Valley.

After being attacked by the demon's spirit, the people in charge of setting up the formation on the scene gradually calmed down, and the light on the "Tian Gang Demon Subduing Formation" gradually became brighter.

Seeing that everyone was almost ready, the incarnation of "Taoist Lingxu" immediately flew up into the sky.

"Next, we will set up the formation to seal the demon god. Everyone, remember to keep your mind focused and don't let the demon god disturb you."

"Hahaha, it's rare that you guys take the initiative to open the seal. Today is truly a godsend opportunity. I think today is the day for my magic path to be revived."

The incarnation of "Taoist Lingxu" had just finished speaking when a shrill laugh suddenly came from the distant sky. Then dozens of figures appeared in the sky, coming from far away and approaching, and instantly arrived outside the large formation above.

Among the dozens of cultivators who came, the lowest one had reached the Golden Core Stage, and more than a dozen of them had already broken through the Nascent Soul Stage. The cultivation levels of the two leading cultivators, one tall and one short, were so high that most people present, including Song Qingming, could not figure out what was going on.

Although these people had different levels of cultivation, the demonic aura they exuded was indeed very familiar to Song Qingming and others. They were all demonic cultivators that made people shudder in fear in the world of immortal cultivation.

"They are demon cultivators. How come there are so many high-level demon cultivators?"

Seeing the many figures in the distant sky, the people who were setting up the formation suddenly showed surprise. They obviously did not expect that at this critical moment of sealing the "True Demon from the Upper Realm", there would be so many other demon cultivators from the outside world coming to make trouble.

Even Song Qingming saw so many masters of magic for the first time, and he couldn't help but frown. Before he could figure out the situation, a very righteous voice reached his ears again.

"All of you, first form a formation to seal the demon god. You must not let this demon escape, otherwise the world of immortal cultivation will suffer a catastrophe!"

Seeing the demon cultivators approaching, the incarnation of "Taoist Lingxu" in the air rushed into the air first and stood in front of the two of them.

"Old Demon Bai Gu, Yang Baixuan, I didn't expect that both of you would come. It seems that today is a bad day for me to seal the real demon.

But if you two want to release the demon, you have to get past me first."

Seeing the incarnation of "Taoist Lingxu", the two leading demon cultivators in the air who also had the cultivation level of Divine Transformation showed disdain on their faces.

"Haha! Lingxuzi, if your real body was still there, we would still be afraid of you. But now you want to stop us with just your incarnation. Aren't you overthinking it, old man?"

Just as he finished speaking, a shorter old man's hand flickered and a flag painted with white bones appeared in it.

As soon as the white bone banner appeared, a cold wind blew up, and then hundreds of white bone monks flew out from it, directly surrounding the incarnation of "Master Lingxu"!

Seeing piles of bones rushing towards him, "Taoist Lingxu" incarnated himself, moved the magic power in his hands, and the next moment a golden flying sword appeared in front of him.

As soon as the golden flying sword appeared, sword energy surged on it, and instantly cut all the dozen or so white bones in front of it into pieces.

But after these white bone monks were chopped into pieces, they quickly reassembled in the cold wind and transformed into a larger white bone beast, which once again rushed towards the incarnation of "Master Lingxu".

The two sides immediately engaged in a fight. For a moment, the surrounding space of hundreds of feet was filled with rolling clouds, lightning and thunder, and even human figures could not be seen.

While the fight was going on in the sky, Song Qingming and the others, under the leadership of their eldest brother Fu Jinglong, immediately activated the formation flags in their hands and began to activate the "Tian Gang Demon Subduing Formation" to quickly fall into the canyon below.

Seeing that the monks of the "Taixu Sect" were still activating the sealing formation below the formation, the "Old Demon of Bones" who was controlling the flags in the cloud immediately spoke:

"Fellow Daoist Yang, time is running out. Let's not get too entangled with him. Let's go down and open the seal quickly, lest the noise is too loud and attract other cultivators."

Hearing his companion's urging, Yang Baixuan, who was standing beside him, nodded immediately and said, "Don't worry, fellow Daoist Bai Gu, wait for me to break the formation first!"

As soon as Yang Baixuan finished speaking, a black flying sword flew out from behind him, and then dozens of demon cultivators following behind him also took out a magic weapon each.

"Ten Thousand Swords Soul Devouring Formation!"

As the flying sword in Yang Baixuan's hand flew high into the sky, the demon cultivators around him also threw out the magic weapons in their hands. Soon, dozens of magic weapons gathered into a ball in the air, and then fell down with boundless momentum.

After a loud "boom", Song Qingming and others who were trying their best to set up the formation suddenly showed surprise on their faces when they saw a huge gap in the "mountain protection formation" above.

I didn't expect that the mountain protection formation on "Yuxuan Island" could be broken so easily by a single blow from the enemy.

Not only Song Qingming and others, but even the many demon cultivators in the sky did not expect that the "mountain protection formation" below that looked very exquisite could not even block a single attack.

"Haha! It turns out you're right. I thought it would take more effort, but I didn't expect the power of the mountain protection formation to be weakened to this extent. Today is truly a godsend opportunity for us."

"Fellow Daoist Yang did a good job. Don't worry about them. Go and open the seal before Lingxuzi comes out."

After the "Old Demon White Bone" finished speaking, he no longer cared about the incarnation of "Taoist Lingxu" in the cloud. Together with Yang Baixuan and his demon cultivators, he rushed into the mountain protection formation below.

"Change the formation and stop them!"

Seeing many demon cultivators rushing in, Senior Brother Fu Jinglong changed the flags in his hand and transformed the "Tian Gang Demon Subduing Array" that had not yet fallen to the bottom of the valley into a giant net that blocked it in mid-air in the canyon.

But what everyone didn't expect was that this formation was too slow in front of the two demon cultivators who had reached the God Transformation stage. It only stopped dozens of demon cultivators in the Jindan and Yuanying stages who had a slightly slower escape speed.

Yang Baixuan and the "Old Demon White Bone" brought a dozen demon cultivators beside them and flew directly into the canyon below in front of Song Qingming and others.

"My Taixu Sect has been guarding the seal of the Demon God for generations, shouldering the important task of protecting the world of immortal cultivation. We must not let the Demon God escape the seal. My fellow disciples, please follow me and help.

The rest of you hold the formation!"

Seeing that the demon cultivators had already entered the canyon, Senior Brother Fu Jinglong threw the formation flag in his hand to Song Qingming and others beside him, and then took several Nascent Soul fellow disciples with him to go down into the canyon to help.

Just as Fu Jinglong and his companions were about to move forward, a deafening roar suddenly came from the canyon below. Soon after, a sword energy with tremendous momentum flew up from the bottom of the canyon and pushed them back.

After this sword energy crossed the canyon, its residual waves directly flattened a nearby hill, shocking Song Qingming and others who were controlling the formation flags.

Before everyone could come to their senses, another sword energy shot up, and a huge skull flew up into the air from the bottom of the canyon. (End of this chapter)
