Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 339

Although the Kylin took away the map of the gods and demons, Su Yun had already memorized the map of the gods and demons during these days. After flying for half a day, the Heavenly Phoenix arrived at Xiang Liu's hiding place.

In fact, Xiang Liu was not hiding at all, but occupying Lianjiang County, conquering the city's defense forces, and forcing the people here to worship him.

The Heavenly Phoenix landed on the south tower of Lianjiang County. The reason why it was called Lianjiang County was because the water system here was well-connected, with a river every three steps and a river every five steps.

However, at this time, the river in Lianjiang County had already turned into poison, and the air was filled with poisonous smoke, which was Xiang Liu's poison. The spiritualists who submitted to Xiang Liu dared not live in the city and could only stay outside the city.

Only during meal times, the spiritualists would escort the food-filled carriages to the center of the city.

There, Xiang Liu would feast and sleep, occasionally demanding a few young girls from the spiritualists as offerings.

Su Yun stood on the city tower and looked towards Xiang Liu's palace. He saw a huge demonic aura hovering above the Lianshan County, so dense that it formed a strange phenomenon of Xiang Liu, with nine dragon heads and human faces, long necks like a coiled mountain python.

Those nine heads were taller than the mountains, looking around.

A group of spiritualists were sneaking into the city, seemingly preparing to hunt down the demonic gods. However, before they could approach the palace, one of the spiritualists suddenly stiffened, and a long mushroom sprouted from his spine.

The other spiritualists were shocked and knew they were poisoned. They quickly took various elixirs, but in the next moment, one of the spiritualists' heads split in half, and another long mushroom sprouted out.

The remaining spiritualists ran back, flying away one by one. However, after only a few steps, their bodies split open, either from the neck, the spine, the chest, or the head. Some even grew long mushrooms from their mouths.

Those mushrooms grew taller and taller, quickly draining the flesh of these spiritualists.

Then, some young girls holding sickles walked out of the palace, harvesting the fresh mushrooms and dragging them into the palace for the demonic gods to enjoy. As for the bodies of the spiritualists, Xiang Liu had no interest in eating them.

After watching for a while, Su Yun did not directly go to Xiang Liu's residence, but set up an altar. Four golden altars floated in the air.

As he mobilized his true essence, the four altars split apart, each with a diameter of more than three zhang, becoming extremely thin and easy to activate. It was effortless!

"Ouyewu did a good job forging, and Kaiming did a good job refining. I will do a good job in the ritual!"

Su Yun was full of confidence. He took out the Immortal Scroll and activated it with the help of the world's aura!

With the four great altar artifacts, Su Yun's activation of the Immortal Scroll was several times faster than before, and the control of his true essence was no longer as constrained as before. The sky immediately became stormy, darker and darker, and the strong wind carried black clouds, covering the sky!

"Crack!"

Thunderbolts struck one after another in the vortex of clouds. In the vortex, another world was opened, and a huge finger slowly pierced through the clouds and pointed at Xiang Liu's demonic aura formed by the world's aura!

That mass of Xiang Liu's demonic aura instantly vanished, and the palace below collapsed with a loud bang, as if it was crushed by an invisible weight.

In the sky, the finger from the other world had already descended by two joints. Su Yun's face turned red, feeling that his mana had reached its limit. He decisively stopped the summoning and shouted loudly, "Xiang Liu—"

The two joints of the finger hung in the air above Lianshan County, neither descending nor retracting.

That was a spiritual finger, and the terrifying spiritual power oppressed everyone, making everything pitch black in front of their eyes and causing their stomachs to churn.

"Xiaoliu is here!"

The ruins of the palace exploded, and Xiang Liu's body was surrounded by several young girls, preventing them from being crushed under the palace. He looked around in a panic and shouted, "Which senior called for Xiaoliu... It's you, brat!"

Xiang Liu's nine heads immediately turned unfriendly and quickly flew over, shouting, "Lao Tou, are you going back on your word? Alright, today I'll teach you a lesson...!"

He suddenly saw the finger hanging in the sky and immediately changed his expression to a smile. The nine big heads looked up from below, smiling and saying, "Today, I will offer a good lesson to Lao Tou! Come, bring up the newly harvested mushrooms! Oh, isn't this Sister Ying Ying? Sister Ying Ying, it's me, Xiaoliu! Sister Ying Ying looks so energetic today, and her dress is so beautiful, with a gold trim..."

Su Yun shouted, "Xiang Liu, the remnants of the human and demonic races are currently hunting down the gods and demons, intending to sacrifice the world's aura of the gods and demons, activate the Immortal Scroll, and open the passage to the immortal realm. In order to protect you and the other demonic gods, I need to gather you all together to fight against the remnants!"

Xiang Liu solemnly said, "Alright, I will go with Lao Tou to find the other demonic gods!"

His other heads turned around and said to the young girls, "I will go out with Lao Tou for a few days. You wait here for me and don't run away with other men. Remember, remember."

Ying Ying was astonished and whispered, "Su Scholar, it's so difficult to persuade the gods and demons, but he agreed with just one sentence? Could it be that he wants to harm us?"

Su Yun also had doubts.

Xiang Liu transformed into a young man with eight arms and a single head, and explained with a smile, "With that finger hanging above my head, I would believe it even if you said Ying Long died."

Su Yun took out two horns of the Winged Dragon and said, "Brother Ying Long, he..."Xiang Liu was ecstatic, his voice trembling, "Did he die violently?"

Su Yun shook his head, "He asked me to take his horn as a token, to request the gods and demons to unite against the remnants. The remnants want to open the channel to the fairy world, and they need to sacrifice ninety-six gods and demons. These ninety-six gods and demons correspond to the ninety-six brands on the Heavenly Gate. Xiang Liu, you are among them."

Xiang Liu's heart jumped, "If you had taken out the horns of the Winged Dragon earlier, you wouldn't have had to scare me with that finger. The Winged Dragon has some weight among us demons."

Su Yun and Ying Ying were surprised, and the Heavenly Phoenix also made a puzzled sound.

In front of the Kylin and other gods, the Winged Dragon was indeed infamous. Using the horns of the Winged Dragon to invite these gods would not work at all. Unexpectedly, in front of Xiang Liu and other demons, it was very simple.

"Who hasn't been beaten by him? Who hasn't been scared by him?"

Xiang Liu said resentfully, "If you take out the horns of the Winged Dragon, everyone will give the Winged Dragon some face. It's our honor to be invited by the Winged Dragon with these two horns. If you summon this finger to scare the demons, you will definitely clash with the stubborn ones, like the Taowu. Even if you kill him, he will bite you to death."

Su Yun solemnly said, "Thank you for your guidance, Brother Liu."

"Just call me Little Liu." Xiang Liu's eight arms each grew a head, and they all spoke in unison.

Su Yun put away the fairy scroll and the altar, and the finger in the sky slowly disappeared. The young Xiang Liu immediately grabbed Su Yun's neck and lifted him up, looking extremely vicious, "Call me Brother Liu!"

Su Yun hurriedly said, "I was going to call you Brother Liu, but you told me to call you Little Liu."

Xiang Liu put him down, looking unhappy, "When you had the finger, I was Little Liu. Now that you don't have the finger, I am Brother Liu! You must give me the respect I deserve!"

Ying Ying was cautiously watching him, still suspicious of this demon.

The young Xiang Liu dismissed the other heads and boarded the Heavenly Phoenix carriage with Su Yun. He sat down with a swagger and said, "Little book monster, give Brother Liu a shoulder massage."

Ying Ying was resentful in her heart, but she had no choice but to step forward and massage his shoulders.

The young Xiang Liu was very comfortable and said to Su Yun across from him, "I ran into the Glutton not long ago. He was eating people in Frost Autumn County and wanted to eat me. He probably hasn't gone far. Let's go there and check."

Su Yun agreed and let the Heavenly Phoenix fly to Frost Autumn County.

When they arrived at Frost Autumn County, they saw that the Glutton had already established a country in Frost Autumn County and was leading an army to attack the Poverty-stricken country - the country across from them was actually established by another demon, the Poverty-stricken.

The two demons were each leading their armies in battle, fighting fiercely, causing the sky to collapse and the earth to crack, and blood to flow into rivers.

The young Xiang Liu stepped forward and shouted, "Stop! The Winged Dragon is asking for our help!"

The Glutton and the Poverty-stricken were wrestling, unable to gain the upper hand. Hearing this, they each took a step back, turned their heads and shouted, "The Winged Dragon is asking for me? Xiang Liu, do you have a token?"

Su Yun took out the horns of the Winged Dragon, and the two demons stopped fighting. They each sounded the gong to retreat their troops and said to their subordinates, "After I leave with the idiot across from me, you guys take advantage of the night to launch a surprise attack, capture the enemy country, and catch all the people of the enemy country for me to enjoy."

The Glutton transformed into a child with large sheep horns, his eyes were like slanted willow leaves, flat and long, and his eyes were hidden behind his eyelids, looking fierce and greedy.

The Poverty-stricken looked like a child who hadn't washed his hair in thirty years, his mouth reached the back of his head, he had wings on his back, and he walked over with his hands behind his back and kicking his feet.

When they arrived in the Heavenly Phoenix carriage, the Poverty-stricken jumped onto the table with a swoosh and sat down, and the Glutton sat across from him. The two demons stared at each other.

Su Yun coughed and explained the situation.

The Glutton and the Poverty-stricken didn't say a word. Xiang Liu cautiously said, "I know that the Drought Snake lives in Pingbo County by the sea. Let's go there and find him."

Su Yun followed his words and let the Heavenly Phoenix rush to Pingbo County.

The Drought Snake was nowhere to be seen, leaving only traces of battle.

Su Yun stood in the center of the battle traces, his heart sinking. Those were the traces left by the fairy scroll. The Drought Snake was captured and suppressed by the fairy scroll, turning into the Drought Snake jade token.

"The Drought Snake and the Fat Legacy are always inseparable. If they are together, they will definitely not be afraid of the remnants of the human demons!"

The Glutton and the Poverty-stricken also saw that the situation was serious, "Let's go find them! They are in Huobo County!"

The Heavenly Phoenix flew to Huobo County. Along the way, the sky above the Heavenly Phoenix was filled with demonic energy, terrifying and horrifying. Wherever they passed, the gods and demons avoided them. It was truly awe-inspiring.

When they arrived at Huobo County, they saw from a distance that the sea of fire in Huobo County had been extinguished, the magma had solidified, and in the center of the smooth and flat magma sea, there was the mark left by the fairy scroll, and in the center was the rune mark of the Drought Snake and the Fat Legacy.

Su Yun stood in the center of the huge mark, looking up. These two demons did not escape and were all captured and taken away by the remnants of the human demons.

"How many gods and demons have fallen into the hands of the remnants?" he said softly.

Just then, a red dress floated in front of Su Yun, dyeing his vision crimson.

"Wu Tong!" His heart trembled slightly.

- The third update will be after nine o'clock tonight. I have to go for dinner.
