Chapter 540: Clues
In the process of exploring clues, Cao Chuan became more and more sure that there were not a small number of demons near Dingfeng Mountain, and they were also a group of demons whose strength might be in the realm of fairyland.
In this case, it is obviously difficult to solve the trouble as soon as possible.
Therefore, Cao Chuan decided not to go directly to the trouble of the demons, but chose to secretly assist the monks of Dingfeng Mountain to deal with the demons.
In this way, without the risk of being exposed, the group can also rely on covert investigation to obtain more clues.
Now that you have a reasonable plan, the next thing to do is to put it into action as soon as possible.
It didn't take long for Cao Chuan to take Yu Qinglan, Wen Jinghao and Chu Ningxiang to the mountains and forests near Dingfeng Mountain where a large number of demons and ghosts were found.
Because the struggle between Dingfeng Mountain and the demons is still ongoing, as soon as you set foot in the mountains and forests, you can smell the smell of blood pouring into the tip of your nose from all directions, and hear bursts of shouts and fights from far and near.
As you go deeper into the forest, you can see some dead bodies lying on the ground.
Many of these corpses are from Dingfeng Mountain, and very few belong to demons and ghosts.
It can be seen that the strength of the demons and ghosts hiding in this mountain forest is indeed much stronger than that of the monks of Dingfeng Mountain.
However, the monks of Dingfeng Mountain are not vegetarians, and they are more numerous, so they can choose to use crowd tactics to fill the gap between their strength when they can't be defeated.
In this case, there was a tie between Dingfeng Mountain and the demons.
But this is also what Dingfeng Mountain does not want to see.
Because in the case of a tie, the crisis of Dingfeng Mountain has still not been resolved, and it can't even be said to be better.
If this stalemate continues, the first person who can't hold it is obviously Ding Fengshan himself.
So in recent days, Ding Fengshan has also sent people out to seek help from other clan forces.
But the reinforcements of other clan forces still have a period of time to arrive, and they need to resist the attack from the demons during this time, and the demons' attacks have become more and more powerful during this time, Ding Fengshan has done his best, but he has only done his best to support, and there is no chance and ability to fight back at all.
Just like the scene that appears in the eyes of Cao Chuan and his party now.
Ten monks dressed in the costumes of the disciples of Dingfeng Mountain were surrounded by three demons, and they were strongly suppressed and powerless to resist.
If this continues, these ten disciples of Dingfeng Mountain will definitely be killed by demons.
But at the moment when the demon was ready to make a move.
Cao Chuan, who had never intended to sit idly by, first disguised his appearance, and then attacked from the shadows with lightning speed, and even beheaded and killed the three demons and ghosts who had reached the Triple Heaven of the Immortal Realm surrounded by the disciples of Dingfeng Mountain with a thunderous blow.
In the next second, Cao Chuan left the scene with Yu Qinglan, Wen Jinghao and Chu Ningxiang, leaving behind the ten disciples of Dingfeng Mountain who watched the demons fall but didn't know what was happening.
When they came to their senses, they only thought that reinforcements from other clan forces had finally arrived, and they immediately got up and rushed to other places to support their own monks.
That's it.
Cao Chuan and his entourage went around the mountains and forests to intercept and kill demons and ghosts until the sky gradually became dark.
When it was about to enter the middle of the night, the demons that had been appearing in the mountains and forests before suddenly disappeared without a trace.
The monks of Dingfeng Mountain seemed to be very familiar with the behavior habits of demons, and when they arrived at this time, they all breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to return to the sect to prepare for another battle tomorrow.
But Cao Chuan and his entourage did not choose to withdraw from the mountains and forests at this time.
Instead, Cao Chuan took down the young master token hanging on his waist, injected spiritual power into it, and began to call the puppet who obeyed his orders.
Soon.
Just as Cao Chuan thought.
What appeared in front of Cao Chuan was not only the puppet of the Demon Origin Sect, but also the demon who was controlled and violated the space of various planes.
It's just that after a whole day of hunting, the number of demons and ghosts still left in the mountains and forests at this time is not much, and what surprised Cao Chuan was the same number of puppets.
Looking at the dozens of puppets who were honestly standing in front of him and showing a respectful attitude to themselves, Cao Chuan had to admit that the Demon Origin Sect did indeed have the capital to stand out from the crowd in its heyday.
Based on the number of these puppets alone, it can already be seen that the strength of the Demon Origin Sect is definitely above the top level, and it is not impossible to be at the top.
But Cao Chuan didn't think much about it, first asked the puppets for the answers to the questions he wanted to know, and then he and the three girls started to kill the gathered puppets and demons together.
The existence of the young master token made Cao Chuan and his party not encounter any resistance, but also got some very useful clues from it.
For example, these puppets and demons came out of somewhere.
And this place exists on the map of the Upper Metaverse, but this place is not a base camp, but a gathering place for some puppets and demons.
Every morning they would scatter from there to various places, and when evening they would go back and hide.
There are many similar strongholds, and it is obviously difficult for Cao Chuan and his party to clean up all these strongholds.
But now the situation has long been different.
After getting such a clue, Cao Chuan immediately contacted Su Sanyuan through the jade plate, and told Su Sanyuan the clues he had investigated.
Then Su Sanyuan, who got the summons, relayed the news and the location of each stronghold to his father.
After the king of northern Jiangsu understood the location of each stronghold, he could send corresponding subordinates to conduct a carpet search and clearance of those strongholds.
So.
It doesn't take much time.
As long as the king of northern Su is clean enough, it will not take much time, and all the strongholds will be cleared.
Clan forces like Dingfeng Mountain will never again be harassed by demons.
However, this alone is far from being able to completely eliminate the demons and golems.
Because even if they did, they still couldn't find out who was really behind the scenes.
Therefore, Cao Chuan and his party immediately shifted their targets and rushed towards the stronghold that was identified by the puppets as the largest.
At the same time, Su Sanyuan and the Su family shadow guard were also rushing there.
At the moment, they have no more clues, and can only use the largest stronghold as the hiding place of the mastermind behind the scenes.
If you still can't find it, you may be able to find some useful clues there.
That's it.
A chase and escape operation unfolded so quickly.
Cao Chuan and Su Sanyuan converged with each other from different directions towards a place in the Upper Metaverse called the Dongshan Grottoes.
