205: Dream-eating tapir

"What, so easily..."

"How is that possible!"

The Pure Burning Demoness and the Flame Demon both turned their heads, their eyes wide with shock.

The two of them were still huffing and puffing, working hard, but the most inconspicuous Li Daoyi had surprisingly come from behind and easily broke through the Restriction.

Instantly, the two felt as disgusted as if they had swallowed a dead fly.

"Five Elements Restriction Breaking Divine Light!"

Ling Xuzi exclaimed in surprise as Gu Changsheng disappeared.

He recognized this Divine Ability, which could break all Restrictions under heaven, at a glance.

'No wonder...'

He immediately understood why Gu Changsheng chose to explore alone.

He had originally thought his Sword Formation had an advantage in breaking Restrictions, but compared to this, it was utterly crushed.

In the distance, Tuoba Hai paused slightly, standing rooted to the spot, and murmured, "This person indeed has some tricks..."

...Inside the hall.

The surroundings were incredibly vast, with giant walls that stretched as far as the eye could see, carved with various ferocious Yaksha.

Sea Patrol Yaksha, One-Eyed Yaksha, Asura Yaksha... Looking around, there were nearly a hundred different types.

All had hideous faces and strange auras, struggling to churn, climb, and roar from the sea of blood.

Whoosh—

Suddenly, in the center of the mural, the eyes of the leading Asura Yaksha abruptly lit up with a divine glow, and green ghost fires suddenly rose from the four corners of the dim hall, illuminating the interior.

It moved!

The Asura Yaksha spread its scaly arms and actually climbed out of the mural.

Its crimson eyes instantly locked onto Gu Changsheng in the distance.

Within a few breaths, hundreds of Yaksha crawled out of the sea of blood; their hideous faces slowly surrounded him, like devils unleashed.

The leading Asura Yaksha's aura had clearly reached the Dongxuan Realm.

Even an ordinary Late Stage Dongxuan Realm Cultivator would have to expend considerable effort to deal with them all at once.

"That mural really is strange..."

Gu Changsheng frowned, a hint of purple flashing in his eyes, and saw that the originally plain mural was entwined with a Formation, activating the sea of blood through a special Restriction.

"So that's how it is..."

Gu Changsheng's lips curled slightly, and his body gradually merged into the Void Realm.

Clang—

The Asura Yaksha suddenly leaped, its steel trident stabbing straight out, its tip glinting with cold light, but it seemed to pierce through air, directly penetrating Gu Changsheng's phantom and plunging into the ground, sending sparks flying.

Turning around, Gu Changsheng had already swept to the side of the mural, purple light swirling in his eyes.

"The node of the Restriction... the Eye of the Sea of Blood, perhaps..."

His gaze sharpened, his index finger turned bronze, and the Five Elements Restriction Breaking Divine Light appeared on his fingertip, which he forcefully plunged into the Eye of the Sea of Blood. With a burst of Qi, the hundreds-of-feet-long mural immediately shattered.

Boom boom boom—

The originally hideous and terrifying Yaksha all turned to stone, then dissipated into sand, leaving behind Dragon-eye-sized pearls on the ground.

"This mural Restriction seems quite easy..."

Gu Changsheng raised a hand, and hundreds of Yaksha remnant pearls floated in his palm.

Legend has it that the Yaksha Clan were born in the chaotic sea of blood, filled with monstrous resentment and a warlike nature. After death, their Evil Qi condenses into a pearl, called a Evil Pearl.

If these are gathered together and nourished by the essence of the sun and moon, there is a chance to give birth to an invisible Evil Qi beast. After contracting it, it can serve as a spiritual pet.

He wondered if it was true.

Silently putting them away, Gu Changsheng looked in the direction where the mural had shattered. A series of eerie green ghost fires rose, illuminating a ten-mile-long corridor.

Beneath the corridor, a blood river flowed rapidly, faintly revealing piles of white bones, and a dense, murderous aura assailed him.

A hint of purple appeared in his pupils.

Gu Changsheng narrowed his eyes, instantly seeing through the Restrictions hidden in the corridor... In another side hall.

Bang—

The mysterious light Restriction burst like a bubble, scattering into starlight and dissipating.

The Flame Demon let out a long breath, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "Finally, the Restriction is broken..."

He slightly calmed his breath, swallowed a Medicinal Pill to replenish his depleted magical power, and stepped into the main hall.

Before he could even see his surroundings clearly, countless Yaksha surrounded him.

"Damn it!"

A roar echoed through the hall... A long time later.

Bronze Great Hall.

Gu Changsheng stretched his muscles and bones, his body crackling with sounds.

There were indeed many Restrictions along the way.

The initial Yaksha-out-of-the-cage mural, followed by the Phantom Corridor (Ghost Corridor), and then the Broken Floating Bridge (Broken Floating Bridge)... Any one of these Restrictions would be enough to halt the progress of an ordinary Dongxuan Realm Cultivator.

Even a Great Cultivator in the Late Stage Dongxuan Realm would have to expend considerable effort to break them.

However, under the Purple Extreme Demonic Pupils and the Five Elements Restriction Breaking Divine Light, everything became effortless.

"Fortunately, I have the Five Elements Restriction Breaking Divine Light, otherwise, breaking through all this would have been quite difficult..."

Gu Changsheng's eyes flickered, and thousands of Evil Pearls appeared in his palm. The Evil Qi interconnected, faintly suggesting life brewing within.

"Evil Qi beast... can it really be born... if a golden eagle with spread wings were born, wouldn't it be called an Evil Eagle..."

Gu Changsheng smiled slightly, casually sending a mysterious light to break the Restriction at the secret chamber's entrance, then stepped inside.

"Such a rich aroma of plants and wood..."

His gaze swept around, revealing hundreds of azure jade boxes, stacked layer upon layer, emitting a faint chill.

"Ten Thousand Year Cold Jade... What a grand gesture..."

Gu Changsheng narrowed his eyes.

Ordinary Ten Thousand Year Cold Jade was already a rare Heaven And Earth Treasure.

When fused into an ice-attribute Flying Sword, it could greatly enhance its ice power.

Unexpectedly, here it was being used as a jade box to store spiritual Materials.

Luxurious!

Suddenly, the True Devil Qi within Gu Changsheng stirred, as if remembering something, and he followed the sensation directly to a three-foot-square jade box.

With a flick of his Sword Qi, a clear fragrance wafted out.

A basin-sized, jade-green flower came into view, with wisps of green flowing light shimmering between its stamens.

"One, two... a hundred petals... Ten Thousand Year demonic spirit flower!"

Gu Changsheng was surprised, a look of delight appearing on his face.

It came without any effort.

The demonic spirit flower, so hard to find in the outside world, was found here.

Upon a slight touch, the True Devil Qi in his body transformed into a black snake, coiling into a ball, looking dispirited.

'Indeed, I was right...'

Gu Changsheng put away the jade box and examined them one by one.

Aside from various spiritual Materials from the Saint Realm whose types he couldn't identify, he also found three demonic spirit flowers.

However, the oldest one was only three thousand years old.

"I didn't expect Guangyuan Sacred Ancestor to collect this flower.

Now, the Materials for refining the demonic heart crossing are finally complete. Resolving the True Devil Qi in my body should not be a problem."

Gu Changsheng smiled slightly.

The main goal of this trip had been achieved.

He only needed to leave the cave-heaven before he could refine the demonic heart crossing.

Suddenly, his eyelids twitched, and a strong wave of drowsiness surged into his heart.

Wait, something's not right!

Gu Changsheng suddenly woke up, his soul sea churning, and a sword-shaped faint light shot out, cutting away the heavy drowsiness.

His eyes sharpened, and he abruptly looked towards the corner of the wall.

The originally empty corner suddenly revealed a strange beast, entirely purple, with fur that rippled like flowing water.

Its long nose surged with spiritual light, spraying purple light that enveloped the entire secret chamber.

"Dream Eater! It's this beast!"

Gu Changsheng exclaimed.

This beast was an ancient strange beast, rumored to be born in the ethereal Dream Realm, formless and insubstantial, capable of setting up a dream domain to make people fall into a deep sleep and devour them in their dreams.

Its methods were incredibly bizarre.

This one before him was clearly still a young beast.

But it was already at the Profound Cave level.
