Chapter 2: The Shadow

"The demon clan seems to be a little unstable recently, Eminem, do you think you want to take them back to the mountains to live for a few days first?!"

Gently took a glass of water and put it in front of Aunt Hu's table, Mo Xuan showed an inquiring look.

"I still don't want it!" Aunt Hu said, "It's good here!"

"But someone has already set their sights on you!" Mo Xuan said, a strange expression on his face, "How did they know your identity, the runes I made work very well!"

At this moment, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl jumped in, saw Mo Xuan, looked happy, and immediately threw herself into Mo Xuan's arms, staring at Mo Xuan with a pair of big black eyes, and exclaimed, "Sixth, it's great that you're back, you brought me something delicious this time!"

Mo Xuan smiled bitterly, looked at the string of shiny gadgets hanging around her neck, and asked, "Little Hua'er, where is the talisman I gave?!"

"Oh, you said that!" Xiao Hua'er was stunned for a moment, and then lame, "What do you say, that thing is not good-looking at all, let me change this!" As she spoke, she held the string of things around her neck in front of Mo Xuan as if offering a treasure, "Liuzi, look, is this thing good?!"

"It's good-looking, it's very good-looking!" Mo Xuan was speechless, and touched his little red face, "Okay, Hua'er, I have something to say to Eminem, I'll bring you something delicious next time!" looked up at Aunt Hu, and saw that she nodded lightly.

Xiaohuaxin reluctantly let out an "oh!", got out of Mo Xuan's arms, and ran out.

"I'll make another one for her!" Mo Xuan smiled bitterly as he looked at Xiao Hua'er's voice.

Aunt Hu nodded, "What about the matter of the Seven Cultivation Sects!"

Mo Xuan smiled, "It's nothing, I'll deal with it, in the end, the demon clan is very uncalm, I think it's a little weird here!"

"Then you be careful, and if you meet Xiao Si and Xiao Wu, bring them back!"

"I will!" Mo Xuan said.

................................................、........................ Located in the south of Ganzhou, Dongtu, the border of the Tang Dynasty of the two boundary mountains, high and blue sky, Cui Wei is steep.

Due to the steep cliffs and the abundance of tigers and wolves, few people will enter the mountains except for the hunters who have lived here for generations, but at this time, there is an extra man in white on this halfway mountainside.

Generally simple dress, the man in white walked slowly in the mountain, walked all the way, enjoyed the scenery all the way, walked and walked, and saw a mountain cliff not far ahead, this mountain cliff was born strangely, not to say that it is strange and majestic, only to say that the mountains around this cliff are continuous, like the waves rolling in the sea, this wave cliff is also named for this.

In this world, this Fulang Cliff is also a famous place, because there is a demon king living here, known as the Seven Cultivation Sect Master, this Seven Cultivation Sect Master has a mysterious origin, unfathomable strength, suddenly appeared a hundred years ago, it occupied the Fulang Cliff of the two worlds of mountains, and founded the Seven Cultivation Sect fifty years ago, collecting the world's demons, under the banner of the unity of the world's demon clans, it seems to have a heart to compete with the Seven Great Sages.

It's just that for decades, apart from collecting youkai, there has been no special move.

However, in Mo Xuan's opinion, this Seven Cultivation Sect Master and the Seven Cultivation Sect were very problematic, because the place he was in was too sensitive.

Fulang Cliff is in the mountains of the two realms, only a hundred miles away from the place where the monkey was suppressed, for a monster whose strength has stepped into the human ladder and has been transformed, the difference between the distance of a hundred miles and the vegetable garden at the door of the house is not big.

"What do they want to do?!" There is no record of Fulang Cliff in the Journey to the West, but at the beginning, it was said that Tang Seng met three monsters in the Two Realms Mountain, namely Xiong Shanjun, General Yin and Special Priest, and at that time, this Tang Seng got out a little strange, these three monsters ate his two servants, but let Tang Seng go, it really doesn't make sense.

It's just that this Fulang Cliff didn't mention anything.

I was thinking about it, but I heard some movement behind me, and when I turned around, I saw a group of people walking on the mountain, there were two people for the road, or rather, two monsters, one of them was wearing a fancy gown, extremely tall, holding an oil-paper umbrella, and there was no trace of blood on her pale face, and the other was a woman, and her appearance was also good among the monsters.

Behind the two of them are six or seven or eight monsters, the strength is high and low, Mo Xuan can see at a glance that the one with the highest strength has just stepped into the level of the earth realm, and is on par with the two monsters at the head, so his posture is relatively arrogant, and the other few are small monsters who are not strong, in front of the strong men of the demon clan, they seem to be a little unaccustomed, so they look trembling when they walk.

A group of more than a dozen monsters just kept coming up, passing by Mo Xuan's side, and even two of them passed through Mo Xuan's body, and none of them found Mo Xuan's existence.

"Well, it looks like my research is still successful!"

Now this strange scene is entirely due to his research on the spatial dimension.

After being swept away by Beidou and reincarnated, Mo Xuan focused on studying the understanding of the spatial dimension after the soul left the body.

The study of space is a purely mental work, and just like sound, in this respect, Mo Xuan has an advantage over those powerful beings in this world.

For the creatures of this world, the laws of space are not untouchable, whether it is immortal, demon, Buddha or ghost energy and other energy may touch the laws of space, especially after death, the soul lives in another space dimension, this space is overlapping with this world, but because the dimensions are different, ordinary people can't see or hear, this is the underworld.

In addition to the underworld, there are countless dimensions that overlap with this world, but there are not many that can be used, in this countless dimensional space, Mo Xuan just found a dimension space that can be used temporarily, this dimension cannot even be called a space, but an interlayer between dimensions, Mo Xuan only needs to coordinate the frequency of the body's breath with the frequency of this layer, and he can enter.

Mo Xuan, who entered this interlayer, is actually equivalent to stealth, but compared to invisibility, there are two more benefits, the first is that creatures who don't understand the mysteries of the interlayer, whether they are gods or immortals, demons or demons, ghosts or monsters, can't feel his existence, even if the other party's strength is far better than their own. The second point is that he is in the middle of the interlayer and does not exist in this world, so even if he looks like he is still standing somewhere, in fact he does not exist, so that both objects and energy can penetrate his body without causing him any harm.

This is much better than stealth.

Mo Xuan silently followed behind this group of monsters, and slowly walked towards Fulangya not far away, the closer he got to Fulangya, the more strange he felt.

The surroundings of this Fulang Cliff are surrounded by a layer of hidden formations, so although it looks like it is no different from usual from a distance, in fact, if you don't know the way, you can't go up at all.

"It looks calm, but it's going to be turbulent underneath!" Mo Xuan secretly sighed in his heart, this is already the sixth formation that these monsters have passed, "A small cave is so tightly defended, what is this for?!"

Although his Moyun Mountain was also sealed by himself with a formation, it was far from being so exaggerated, and what surprised him even more was that these mountain protection formations were murderous, and they were actually full of demonic energy.

Demons, but they have disappeared in the Three Realms for 100,000 years!!

It looked ordinary on the outside, but the formation was full of demonic energy inside, which raised Mo Xuan's curiosity to another level.

Dark green moss crawled all over the stone wall, stretching from the hole in the middle of the stone wall, the damp air was filled with a rancid smell, and in this strong smell, Mo Xuan smelled another smell that surprised him even more strangely.

The smell of blood!!

"It's up there!" walked to the edge of the cliff, and said to the tall cave on the cliff, and flew up first, and the other monsters, except for those who cultivated in the realm, all hesitated for a moment before flying up behind him.

Mo Xuan squinted his eyes, looking at the black hole, he always felt that something seemed to be wrong inside, and after he made up his mind, he also flew up.

The entrance of the cave is about a zhang high, and the cave is twists and turns, and there seems to be no end, which also attracted Mo Xuan's attention, it is obvious that there is a space in this cave that is similar to a magic circle to read outside the world, but this space is very closely related to the present world, relying on the present world, but if you can't find the entrance, you can't find this space either.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the smell of blood was getting stronger and stronger, Mo Xuan frowned tightly, and faintly, he heard bursts of laughter from the depths of the cave.

"It's strange, isn't this Fulang Cliff known as the 10,000 demon clans?!, how did you get to the present, and you haven't seen a shadow of a demon clan?!" After walking for a while, I heard a voice from the depths of the cave, "Xifeng, Wumu, are you two back?!" "Yingge's people found six demon clans in Xiniu Hezhou that met the requirements of the sect leader, and he went to find them?!"

While speaking, everyone turned a corner, and suddenly their eyes lit up, and the end of the cave had arrived!

A strange roar came from the monster whose strength had surpassed that of the earth realm, and his body retreated sharply.

"When you get here, it's impossible to leave!" A strange laugh of "Jiejie", a hand suddenly stretched out from behind the demon, with a hint of gentleness, flashing a strange blue light of fingertips cut through the demon's throat.

Blood, gushing out of the arteries, I don't know what kind of special effect that blue hand has, the demon's primordial spirit was actually connected to the body by him like this, struggling to get out, was grabbed by that hand, and the owner of the hand appeared.

At the same time, several other youkai who were brought in were treated in the same way.

The blood spurted into the blood trough on the ground, flowing along the long blood trough towards the blood pool in the center, and the primordial spirit was completely stripped out, as for the body.

Like the corpses of youkai lying full of holes in the cave, they were casually discarded to the ground.

"It doesn't matter if he doesn't come back, counting the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine you brought!" At this time, the Seven Cultivation Sect Masters showed their bodies, slender bodies, jade-like faces with a wisp of evil smiles, long black hair draped over his shoulders, a black ribbon tied casually, and a black gown on his body, with an evil aura all over his body.

And what interested Mo Xuan the most was that his eyes turned out to be blood-red.

There is a circular altar in the center of the wide blood pool, with a strange pattern embedded in the middle, and the perimeter of the altar is engraved with mysterious runes, these runes are something that Mo Xuan has never seen before, although he is only watching from a distance, but the sadness, desolation and destruction that emanates from it still make Mo Xuan's heart secretly frightened.

Tear off the primordial gods of several monsters from their bodies, and after placing a ban, they were thrown directly on the altar, as soon as those primordial gods touched the altar, they began to melt, faintly, Mo Xuan saw the strange patterns on the altar exuding transparent flames, these flames absorbed the energy of the primordial gods, and then disappeared, and the altar returned to its original ancient appearance.

"Well, it's almost time!" The Seven Cultivation Sect Master nodded, and the excitement on his handsome face flashed, "West Wind, you come here!" "Yes, Sect Master!" West Wind took a step forward and came to the front of the Seven Cultivation Sect Master.

The Seven Cultivation Sect Master's hand flipped over, and a black leather case appeared in his hand, and he carefully pulled out a jet-black dagger from the leather case, and the Seven Cultivation Sect Master handed the dagger to Zephyr's hand.

"Go, take this, cut off the head of the monkey on the other side of the mountain and bring it over!"

"Yes!" Zephyr took the knife and turned to leave.

"Wait!" the Seven Cultivators shouted, "You only have a quarter of an hour to work, and after a quarter of an hour, the prohibition on the knife will not be able to seal the demonic energy of this knife, so you must come back within a quarter of an hour!" "Understood!" Zephyr nodded.

Mo Xuan thought for a while, and followed the west wind out of the cave.

The monkey on the other side of the mountain naturally refers to Sun Wukong, looking at the strength of the Seven Cultivation Sect Masters is at least at the Zhongtian level, it is impossible not to know that the monkey has been refined into a mixed Yuan Xuan Body, which can be said to be close to immortality, but let a monster like Zephyr, whose strength has just broken through the earth realm, take a knife to cut off people's heads, which can only mean one thing.

The knife is a treasure!

The knife that can cut off the monkey's head can definitely rank among the top three in the Three Realms, at least not your own small scalpel.

And it was obvious that the west wind was also very confident in this knife, but he said that he came out of the cave, hummed a little song all the way, and flew towards the mountain with the monkey on the other side of the mountain, a hundred miles away, too close!

That's a bad job!

The monkey made trouble in the Heavenly Palace, ate the elixir, the peach, and was refined by the Taishang Sage for seven seven and forty-nine days, it can be said that he is now full of treasures, and when he went to cut off his head, the blood shed alone was enough to make his strength rise to several levels.

Thinking of this, Zephyr couldn't help but smile, and a pair of eight-figure eyebrows also stretched, and at this moment, he felt that his eyes were dark.

Mo Xuan appeared in mid-air, shook his sleeves, shook the west wind out of his sleeves, and with a move of his hand, the black knife came to his hand, and the west wind, just recovered from the state of dizziness, and what greeted him was Mo Xuan's big foot.

A very direct kick directly trampled his body and the Yuan Shen.

"This knife is really good!" Mo Xuan gently stroked the knife surface, feeling the breath of destruction from the depths of the knife body, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Little Dragon Snatching Golden Knife, this must be the legendary Little Dragon Snatching Golden Knife, one of the three supreme magic weapons, one of the three supreme magic weapons that are said to be enough to compete with the ten innate spirit treasures, just fell into my hands!"

"However, this matter can't be known to others, of course, it also includes the matter of the Seven Cultivation Sects, and it can't be known to others!" Thinking of this, Mo Xuan's eyes flashed, and he put the little dragon gold snatching knife in his hand into his sleeve, changed his body, changed into the appearance of the west wind, picked up another stone, blew on it, turned him into a monkey's head, looked at the sky, and walked towards Fulang Cliff.

Entering the cave, Wumu was already waiting for him, "How is it, is it done?!"

Mo Xuan raised the monkey head that the stone in his hand turned into.

Wumu nodded, "Hurry up, the sect leader can't wait, and he will walk towards the cave first."

When he walked to the altar, Mo Xuan's speed gradually slowed down, and he clearly felt the layers of demonic qi pouring out from the inside out, as well as the faint roar.

The blood in the pool of blood gurgled and rolled, like boiling water, and a big head stretched out from the center of the altar, as if breaking free from something, this head was seven points similar to humans, but it was obviously different, there were nine horns on the head, one of them was longer on the forehead, the other eight were very short, and in the mouth, there were four fangs sticking out, leopard eyes and eyebrows, and a hideous face.

Although it was only a head, the powerful demonic qi made Mo Xuan involuntarily take two steps back.

"Who are you!!" Seeing Mo Xuan retreating, the Seven Cultivation Sect Master's face couldn't help but change, and he stretched out his hand and grabbed Mo Xuan.

"Bad luck!" Mo Xuan secretly cursed in his heart, the strength of this Seven Cultivation Sect Master had reached the Middle Heaven Rank, and in terms of mana, it was a cut above himself, and he didn't want to collide with the other party, so his body slid to the side.

The stone in his hand smashed directly at him.

The Seventh Cultivation Sect Master sneered, a wisp of hideousness flashed on his handsome face, and ten demonic qi shot out from his five fingers, forming a net, and heading towards Mo Xuan.

Then, the smile on his face froze, and the black knife sank from his back into his chest, revealing only the black handle.

"I'm Mo Xuan!" Mo Xuan's body suddenly appeared behind him and whispered in his ear.

"Uh......?" A wisp of black blood flowed from the corner of the mouth of the Seven Cultivation Sect Master, and he wanted to speak, but he couldn't say anything, "You shouldn't have been in this world for a long time, or, you are too anxious to find your sacrifice, you didn't carefully inquire about the current situation in the Three Realms, and sent someone to my territory to find the sacrifice, you are still humorous!~" As he spoke, he gently pulled the Xiaolong Golden Knife out of the Seven Cultivation Master's body.

"Whew!" the head on the altar screamed, struggling to climb out of the altar.

"It's useless!" Mo Xuan smiled, and wiped the little dragon gold sword in his hand with the clothes of the Seven Cultivation Sect Master, "I know that your strength is very strong, and it can be seen from the horns on your head, the Nine-Star Great Demon, even in the era of ten thousand demons rampant in the wilderness 100,000 years ago, is a peerless powerhouse, however, even if your strength has far surpassed the Taitian Rank, but after all, you are not a saint, without the innate spirit Yuan Life Sacrifice, you can't break through the space barrier, right?!" "Howl, whoa-!" The head was slammed, as if he wanted to rush out of the altar, and the huge demonic qi surged around, directly knocking Mo Xuan away.

"Hehe, the Nine-Star Great Demon is the Nine-Star Great Demon, a powerhouse above the Taitian Position!" Mo Xuan stood up nonchalantly, watching his head being dragged under the altar by another force little by little, he smiled even brighter, "It's just that you still can't get by!"

After the last cry of reluctance, the great demon finally disappeared into the altar completely.

"Stopping the big demon from rushing out of the demon realm, this is a great merit, come to think of it, even if I kill more people, I don't have to worry about this karma!" Mo Xuan turned his head with a smile, stretched out his hand, and twisted the neck of Wu Mu, who had fled outside the cave, "I just don't know, those big guys above the thirty-three days will have what kind of expressions they will have when they know the problem of the Demon Realm that has been sealed for 100,000 years, anyway, I won't tell them!" Mo Xuan laughed lowly.

Things are getting more and more fun!
