Chapter 480 Demon Altar

Devil Lake is a famous gathering place for demon cultivators in the Yan Demon Realm.

The Immortal Alliance army has launched three large-scale operations to encircle and suppress the demon cultivators around the Demon Lake. Although they have achieved great results, they have never killed all the demon cultivators here.

They are like grass in spring, which grows again and again after being cut, leaving people helpless.

Xu Jun flew for three days before arriving above the Demon Lake.

This is a dark and strange place, surrounded by thick dark fog. The lake was bottomless black, as if it could swallow up all light.

There are scattered withered water plants floating on the lake, swaying in the wind and making a rustling sound. From time to time, the low roars of monsters in the water can be heard from the lake, which is terrifying.

Xu Jun frowned slightly, and his consciousness scanned a certain battle report in his watch.

It said that the Immortal Alliance army performed well in the Demon Lake attack battle. They had occupied several key locations and cleared out most of the monsters. The complete liberation of the Demon Lake was just around the corner.

However, at this moment, Xu Jun looked over the Demonic Lake and saw red rays of light flashing deep in the lake, which was a signal of the activity of the monsters.

On the shore of the lake, there are huge black stones scattered in an orderly manner, mottled with moss, and slippery and difficult to walk on. From time to time, demon cultivators walked through the mist. They were dressed in black robes, with expressionless faces and a cold light in their eyes.

Xu Jun curled his lips slightly, does this mean he has occupied the core area?

Although it was his first time to come to the Demonic Lake, as a fourth-level formation master, Xu Jun could tell at a glance the general geographical location of the Demonic Lake and the trend of its spiritual veins.

If he read it correctly, the most important place in the entire Demonic Lake should be the largest island in the center of the earth.

This geocentric island is located in the middle of the lake, with rich spiritual power escaping around it.

It can be seen that this island occupies an important position in the entire land line.

However, if Xu Jun saw it correctly, the current Immortal Alliance army has not occupied the island in the middle of the lake.

This will liberate the Demon Lake, is it just around the corner?

Xu Jun admitted that battle reports usually report good news but not bad news. However, you gave such misleading information... Damn it, boosting morale is a good thing, but aren't you afraid that someone will fall into the trap?

"boom…"

"roar…"

Suddenly, the night sky was covered with dark clouds, and occasionally lightning broke through the sky, illuminating the scene around the Magic Lake.

The rumble of thunder intertwined with the roar of the monsters in the lake, creating an oppressive atmosphere.

Xu Jun's brows furrowed even more tightly. Even he didn't want to stay here for a long time, because everything here portended ominousness and danger.

Although Xu Jun is invincible in the third level, he is not arrogant enough to think that he can easily crush a large number of fourth level demon cultivators.

Even though the fourth-level demon cultivators haven't taken action yet, once they do, they will definitely form a devastating counterattack.

Of course, the fourth-level Nascent Souls of the Immortal Alliance will not sit idly by. But there is a gap during this period. During this period, some of the Immortal Alliance troops will inevitably be attacked by the fourth-level demon cultivators. The casualties will be left to fate.

Xu Jun saw this, so he became more and more cautious.

If the highest level in this world was only the third-level golden elixir, he would have let go and killed everyone.

His body moved slightly, and bursts of black mist suddenly surged over Xu Jun's body. In the blink of an eye, his appearance became indistinguishable from that of a monster.

Xu Jun has also maximized his camouflage ability.

With his current attainments in talismans, plus the blessings of various techniques. Unless he is unlucky enough to meet a super strong person at the level of a god, or a person in the late Nascent Soul stage who has practiced the secret method of improving eyesight, it is impossible for anyone to see through his disguise.

This is also the biggest reason why he dares to come to the Demon Lake to inquire about the news.

His body dropped and Xu Jun landed on the lake.

This magical lake breeds countless terrifying monsters. These monsters not only attack the Immortal Alliance monks, but they also refuse to let go of ordinary shore monsters that accidentally fall into the lake.

However, when Xu Jun landed on the lake, not only was his body as light as nothing, but when his feet touched the lake, he seemed to be integrated into the lake without even a ripple.

The water system of the Five Elements.

Xu Jun's understanding of water avenues has reached a terrifying level. At the moment he fell into the water, part of his body seemed to have turned into a part of the lake.

No matter how keen the monsters in the lake are, they cannot be repulsive to the lake, so they never noticed Xu Jun's arrival.

In this way, Xu Jun's body drifted towards the island in the middle of the lake.

The closer he got to the island in the middle of the lake, the more Xu Jun felt the powerful demonic energy coming from this place.

This concentration of demonic energy is simply frightening. Another Jindan cultivator might not have the courage to enter alone.

Finally, Xu Jun arrived at the island in the middle of the lake without any danger.

When he landed on the island, he found that a warning array had been set up on the island in the middle of the lake.

However, this warning array is driven by demonic energy and will only be automatically triggered when it senses the spiritual power of the monks.

But now Xu Jun's whole body is full of demonic energy, and there are no flaws. This warning array fell on him, and it had no effect at all.

Xu Jun was floating on the island in the middle of the lake. The formation here was ingenious.

However, in the eyes of him, the fourth-level formation master, it was vulgar, and Xu Jun even had the urge to patch it up.

However, after thinking about it for a while, Xu Jun immediately gave up the idea.

He spent so long repairing the mountain-protecting formation in the Qinglian Sword Sect that he acted subconsciously.

After detouring for a while and passing through a slightly complicated formation, Xu Jun finally arrived at the core of the island in the middle of the lake.

Here, there is an ancient altar covered with charms and dried blood.

Xu Jun's consciousness swept over, and countless shrill screams suddenly sounded in his ears.

This is a place where demon cultivators perform certain forbidden rituals, and judging from the blood stains on the altar, it seems that it has been used quite frequently recently.

Suddenly, Xu Jun's heart moved slightly. He dodged and entered the formation in the opposite direction.

Then, his body seemed to be hidden within the formation, and even his breath disappeared without a trace.

The magic cultivator who set up the formation here would never have imagined that the formation he had worked so hard to set up did not play any interception role, but instead became the best cover for people to hide their whereabouts.

Soon, hundreds of demon cultivators passed through the formation and arrived under the altar.

The cultivation levels of these demon cultivators are different. The highest ones are actually two golden elixirs, while the lowest ones are equivalent to the fourth or fifth level of Qi training of the Immortal Alliance.

The demonic cultivators at the rear looked dull, with no expression on their faces. It was clear that they had been manipulated to control their thoughts and reactions.

When these people arrived in front of the altar, the leader of the Jindan Demon Cultivator looked up at the sky and said slowly: "There is still half an hour, it will be midnight."

Another Jin Dan had long green hair. He nodded, turned around and said, "Okay, we're here, let's rest."

All the demon cultivators at the rear immediately sat down. Although they were of different races, their actions were the same, giving people a strange feeling of uniformity. Xu Jun's eyelids twitched slightly, and his expression was quite strange.

Could it be that I am possessed by a spirit now? His luck was incredible, and he suddenly found the source of the self-destructing demons.

Although he didn't know how to refine the self-destruction magic cultivator, he had heard of it before.

This is a very painful process, and there may not even be one third of the demon cultivators who can truly endure it and survive.

Another half hour passed.

As night falls completely, the Demonic Lake becomes more active, the wind howls and the water surface becomes choppy, as if the monsters in the lake are waiting for something.

The leader of the Golden Core Demonic Cultivator opened his eyes and said: "It's time, let's do it."

"Okay." The long-haired demon cultivator waved his hand and said: "Everyone, please kneel down and worship the Demon Ancestor and pray for your success."

After saying that, he picked up a gourd and opened it.

Suddenly, countless black smoke flew out of the gourd. As if they had a premeditated plan, they rushed towards the demon cultivators under the altar and enveloped them all in an instant.

Of course, the two golden elixir demon cultivators had special treasures on their bodies. Once the black smoke approached, they immediately left in a panic. It seemed that they had something terrifying on their bodies, and even the black smoke was a bit wary.

"ah…"

Suddenly, a demon cultivator let out a shrill scream. He held his head in his hands and fell to the ground. His body was twitching desperately, and he seemed to be dying.

However, the two golden elixir demon cultivators and the black smoke who were the instigators did not care about this, and did not even take a second look.

"Ah, ah, ah..."

That painful howl was like turning on a switch. Soon, the more than a hundred demon cultivators in front of the altar all let out painful howls. It seemed that their bodies were undergoing huge changes, making them It gave rise to a feeling that life would be worse than death.

"Sir, I give up, give up..." A demon cultivator stretched out his neck desperately and shouted: "Let me go."

The golden elixir demon cultivator rolled his eyes at him and said angrily: "How can you give up? You have to contribute your strength to the Demon Ancestor. If you hesitate any longer, I will send you to see the Buddha first."

However, his threats had no effect at all.

In just a moment, there were more and more howls, and most of the people howling were actually the ones with the highest level of cultivation.

Although it cannot be compared with the two golden elixir demon cultivators, it has also reached the level of the late-stage foundation-building cultivators of the Immortal Alliance.

"You just have to be patient. As long as you complete the memorial ceremony, you can become the guardian of the ancestor. Once you die, your energy and spirit will be transformed into the inheritance of the ancestor. What a glorious thing this is. You must work hard."

Xu Jun next to him couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body as he listened.

If you endure this kind of torture, you will die if you die. After surviving, you will become the ancestor's cultivation materials...

glory?

As long as it is an individual, no one would want this kind of honor.

The thinking of demon cultivators is indeed very different from that of normal people.

A quarter of an hour later, a sudden change occurred.

"Crack."

After a loud noise, the body of one of the demon cultivators exploded, and countless flesh and blood rained down from the sky.

Xu Jun's heart trembled, he was indeed a self-destructed demon cultivator.

Obviously, this demon cultivator couldn't bear the pain of transformation, so his body self-destructed first.

However, after the self-destruction, the flesh and blood spilled to the ground, it did not mix with the sand on the ground. Instead, it seemed to have consciousness, slowly and firmly flowing towards the altar.

Xu Jun's eyes flashed, and he was secretly surprised. He looked at the altar with a strong look of caution.

This altar actually has the thoughts of a strong man attached to it.

Obviously, this person is the culprit who created the self-destructing demon clan.

"Pa bang bang..."

Continuous explosions sounded, and the bodies of the demon cultivators shattered one after another, and then the rain of blood from their bodies surged towards the altar.

This scene is extremely poignant and terrifying.

Normal people would definitely feel extremely uncomfortable if they saw it.

Finally, after about 70% of the demon cultivators were shattered, although the remaining demon cultivators were still groaning, they were much smaller, and even the pain on their faces softened.

The leader of the Golden Core Demon Cultivator frowned and said, "The success rate is still so low. This is not easy to handle."

The green-haired demon cultivator Jie Jie smiled strangely and said, "What's the matter? Just ask each family to increase their dispatch and send more monks over."

The leader of the demonic cultivators shook his head and said: "The monks who can be sent here are all selected after preliminary selection. Most of them are elites from collateral families or small families. Increasing the intensity of sending them will be detrimental to the overall war situation."

"Hmph, we have to evacuate anyway. What are we leaving so many people for? We might as well make the best use of them."

The leading demon cultivator's expression changed and he said sternly: "Be careful what you say."

The green-haired demon cultivator said impatiently: "What are you worried about? I don't believe you didn't receive the notice. Alas, as long as we can leave, why do you care so much?"

Xu Jun listened with surprise and joy. He didn't expect to lurk here today and get such a shocking secret.

In the end, Yan Mojie could no longer resist, and the top management evacuated, which was what should be done.

However, the high-level demon cultivators evacuated so quickly, were they so decisive?

This is not normal!

The green-haired demon cultivator said again: "Brother, if the ancestors want to sacrifice a world, they must have left a gap. Do you know where it is?"

The leader, Jin Dan, said coldly: "I don't know."

The green-haired demon cultivator sneered again and again and said: "Haha, I don't believe you are not tempted. The ancestors eat meat, so they must leave some soup for us."

Xu Jun on the side felt cold all over after hearing this.

Sacrifice a world?

I heard something amazing.

No, now that you're here, you can't go back empty-handed.

Xu Jun looked at the two demon cultivators silently and made up his mind.

An hour later, this time the sacrifice was completely completed, and the remaining thirty or so demon cultivators stood up. There was no longer confusion in their eyes, and they all exuded a fierce and violent aura.

The new batch of self-destructing demons were successfully refined.
