Mortal Bones

After hearing the voice of Demon Emperor Yangling, Xu Taiping's eyes flickered for a moment before he calmly returned to the lotus platform.

After returning to the lotus platform, he responded in his heart:

"Yangling Demon Emperor, I naturally believe that you have this method, but how do you expect me to believe that the most powerful Demon Emperor in Jiuyuan will take the initiative to help the human race deal with Jiuyuan?"

Yangling Demon Emperor seemed to have guessed that Xu Taiping would say this, and replied in a very calm tone:

"You can rest assured."

"Saving your life when you are in the most critical moment and bringing you back to Xuanhuang Tower is the decree that Emperor Xuanhuang has placed on me."

"Otherwise, you, who have already reached the deadline for returning these three scrolls, will not be able to continue to exert the power of these three scrolls."

After hearing this explanation, Xu Taiping was slightly moved.

So while he took out the scroll of Old Smoker from the gourd and prepared to check it, he communicated with Lian Tong:

"What do you think?"

Even if Lantong doesn't use the power of deduction, he can still sense some unknown dangers.

Almost at the same time that Xu Taiping took out the painting of the old smoker, Liantong's voice sounded in his mind:

"In the current situation, if you use normal means to go to the wilderness, you will definitely encounter an ambush from Jiuyuan."

"So if this ghost master can be trusted, naturally it is safest to follow him back to Xuanhuang Tower first."

"After all, this is a path that Jiuyuan has never known."

Xu Taiping nodded slightly calmly.

Even if Liantong didn't say anything, he knew that it would be extremely dangerous to escape Jiuyuan's pursuit and go to Xuanhuang.

With this in mind, he slowly unfolded the picture of the old smoker.

Immediately, he saw the old smoker in the painting, lying on the bed and smoking with a contented look on his face.

After discovering Xu Taiping, the old smoker calmly blew out a smoke ring and smiled at Xu Taiping:

"Sir, it's time for you to send us back to Xuanhuang Tower."

Xu Taiping nodded, then put away the picture of the old smoker, and then opened the picture of the red lion ghost.

As a result, the Red Lion Ghost was even more direct——

"Little guy, the time limit is up. No matter how much money you give me, you won't let me do anything for you."

After putting away the two paintings, Xu Taiping was once again plunged into decision-making.

At this moment, Cang Ai, the Great Emperor of Youyuntian, suddenly sent a message to Xu Taiping:

"Xu Taiping, please don't come out of the passage leading to Youyuntian for the time being. I just sensed the presence of the Demon Emperor's breath nearby."

Soon, the voice of Emperor Juemingtian Duanyue also sounded:

"There are also a lot of Demon Emperor's auras appearing here in Juemingtian. Xu Taiping, you'd better not come here for the time being."

Subsequently, Zhenwu Tianjiu Mansion and Xuanhuang Tianqianji City also successively sent messages to Xu Taiping.

Its content is almost the same as what the great emperors Duanyue and Cang Ai said.

For a moment, all the monks watching the battle were in an uproar.

Everyone did not expect that Jiuyuan would send out so many Demon Emperors in one go in order to contain the wild Xu Taiping.

When Xia Houyou saw this, he immediately frowned and said:

"Although Xu Taiping's current cultivation is capable of fighting against demon cultivators at the Demon Emperor level, the prerequisite is a one-on-one fight. If he encounters a Demon Emperor with more than a hundred demon knights under his command, or two or three Demon Emperors join forces, I'm afraid that It’s going to be very bad.”

Xiahou Qingyuan nodded in agreement, and then added:

"You are still talking about a head-on confrontation. The most troublesome thing is that the enemy is in darkness and we are in the clear, because you have no idea what kind of weird original demon power the Demon King has."

Xia Houyou said again at this time:

"Let's see if Emperor Zongyun can woo Mr. Taiping."

And while the two were talking, the voice of Emperor Zongyun came out again from the shadow of the Moon Shadow Stone above their heads——

"Wuxin, if you do this, aren't you afraid that the Qing Dynasty will take advantage of the emptiness inside your Jiuyuan and counterattack your Jiuyuan Blood Cave?"

To everyone's surprise, Emperor Zongyun was not calling Xu Taiping this time, but the Wuxin Demon Emperor.

The voice of the Wuxin Demon Emperor soon sounded:

"There are only a few hundred Demon Emperors. Even if they are all destroyed outside, they will not be able to damage the foundation of my Jiuyuan."

Everyone felt a chill down their backs when they heard this.

They did not expect that in order to besiege Xu Taiping and prevent him from sending the Buddha statue to Xuanhuang, the Wuxin Demon Emperor actually sent more than a hundred Demon Emperors to guard various wild exits in the Five Directions World.

Xiahou Qingyuan's eyes narrowed and he murmured:

"If he was not lying unintentionally, the number of Demon Emperors that Jiuyuan has now will be at least dozens of times as many as it appears on the surface."

Shihu Tianjun was not surprised by this, and said in a very calm tone:

"The real game between Jiuyuan and Shangqing is never the lower realm but the upper realm. Giving birth to more than a hundred demon emperors is nothing to Jiuyuan."

"What I didn't expect was that this Wuxin Demon Emperor could actually convince the other Demon Emperors stationed in the upper and lower realms of Jiuyuan to mobilize more than a hundred Demon Emperors to surround Xu Taiping in such a short period of time."

Xia Houyou was a little worried and said:

"In this case, I'm afraid Xu Taiping won't be able to leave the wilderness in a short period of time."

"If we wait for the passages in the wilderness to open, Jiuyuan will definitely try his best to send demon cultivators into the wilderness to assassinate him."

At this moment, the voice of the Wuxin Demon Emperor sounded again——

"Xu Taiping, after you break through the shocking realm, you should be able to sense that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in this wild world is mixed and impure, and there is no way for you to stabilize your realm."

"It's okay to stay for three to five months. If you stay for three to five years, or even three to five decades, even if your cultivation is wasted, you will have to spend at least three to five hundred years to refine it again."

"So, for the sake of your cultivation, I advise you to destroy the Buddha statue and leave Savage Heaven."

"I have no intention of promising you that as long as you do what I say, all the grievances between you and Jiuyuan in the past and today will be written off."

"From now on, you can practice with peace of mind without worrying about assassinations from Jiuyuan."

After hearing this, all the monks watching the battle turned their eyes to Xu Taiping in the spirit mirror.

Some people were even a little worried:

"In this situation, Xu Taiping is afraid to compromise."

Some monks thought that even if Xu Taiping compromised, it was human nature. After all, how could he fight against the siege of Jiuyuan without a strong force behind him?

The emperors who had spoken out did not speak again at this time.

Xiahou Qingyuan shook his head and said:

"The emperors didn't speak, which meant that they acquiesced that there was no better way and let Xu Taiping choose for himself."

Compared to the disappointment and regret in Xiahou You and Xiahou Qingyuan's eyes, Shihu Tianjun looked at Xu Taiping in the shadow of the Moon Shadow Stone with expectation.

Because unlike Xiahou You and others, he had known from Lao Niu's voice transmission in advance that Xu Taiping would ask for help.

But it was also because of this.

This Shihu Tianjun was even more curious about who was the sacred person who could help Xu Taiping get rid of the current dilemma that was almost dead.
