Traveling through the Immortal Realm: Starting from Becoming a Top-Level Furnace Cauldron

Chapter 154 The Demonic Palace Under the Stone Forest

Longhua Kingdom, southern border.

Fall into the Stone Forest of Desire.

The sunlight shines through the rugged and bizarre stone pillars, outlining the surface of the pillars with light and dark shadows. The wind blows through the treetops, making a low whistle.

The gaps between the rocks vary in width and twist and turn like a maze, and rough-skinned reptile-like monsters lurk at almost every corner.

"Hiss..."

A lizard slowly poked its head out from the shadows. On its triangular head, a pair of cold vertical pupils flashed with a faint green light, scanning the surroundings vigilantly.

The lizard has a huge body, covered with a layer of scales as hard as iron, which emits a chilling metallic luster in the dim light.

As its torso moved, the thick tail behind it swung vigorously, leaving a deep groove on the ground.

Suddenly, it sensed something strange, and its originally slow movements stopped instantly. Its whole body tensed up like a fully drawn bow.

"hiss--"

After a sharp roar, the surrounding monsters seemed to have received some kind of signal. They appeared from their hiding places and looked up at the sky.

But in an instant, the originally clear sky became dark, and countless black feathers covered the scorching sun and fell from the sky.

The lizards seemed to have seen something scary and hid back in the dark.

Half an incense stick later, the black feather disappeared, and two black-robed demon cultivators slowly landed. Their black robes rustled in the wind, as if they were wrapped in endless power.

One of them was holding a woman in red gauze, and she looked seriously injured.

"Master Demon Lord..." Chi Liuli stretched out her arms and hugged the man's neck, saying coquettishly, "I knew you would come to save me!"

Chi Liuli lifted the man's hat. His face was cold and deep, with a faint light flickering in his eyes, like two balls of devilish flames burning in the abyss. Just a slight glance could make people feel cold.

"Come down."

The man called the Demon Lord said coldly.

Chi Liuli buried her head in his neck and took a deep breath, then reluctantly stretched her legs and landed on the ground.

"I don't blame you for what happened to Yiluo, but this look of defeat is too ugly." The Demon Lord said in a deep voice.

"Who knew there would be a Jindan-stage cultivator here?" Chi Liuli complained.

"A dignified Jindan demon cultivator doesn't even have a plan to deal with the situation, yet you still want to rely on me to clean up the mess." The Demon Lord's voice was filled with a hint of anger and disdain, his eyes grew colder, and the dim light seemed to freeze Chi Liuli.

Chi Liuli lowered his head slightly, but secretly raised his eyes to observe the Demon Lord's expression.

"Master Demon Lord, that cultivator was very cunning. He pretended to be a pig but was the real tiger. I was caught off guard and fell into his trap," Chi Liuli explained quickly. "And my efforts were not in vain. I can find the trace of a treasure for you."

"Treasure?" The Demon Lord frowned slightly. "What did you gain?"

Chi Liuli's eyes rolled, and a hint of pride appeared on his face. "Although I haven't succeeded, I am sure that there is a natural furnace tripod among the cultivators of Longhua Country!"

The Demon Lord's pupils shrank sharply, and his cold face finally trembled slightly.

"Furnace tripod?"

"Why are you saying this now?!"

The thunderous sound made the surrounding stone pillars buzz, and a large amount of sand and rocks fell off, scaring the lizards in the dark to flee in all directions.

Chi Liuli shrank back in fear at the Demon Lord's rebuke, but still hurriedly said, "It's because you walked too fast..."

"what?"

The Demon Lord glanced at Chi Liuli, and she trembled all over with fear.

"Forget it. Since the furnace cauldron is still in Nanzhou, there's no need to worry about not finding it," the Demon Lord said to the sky. "Pass the order down. Anyone who can capture someone with the furnace cauldron physique alive will be rewarded with a Nine-Transformation Resurrection Pill!"

The crows circling in the sky screamed and soon scattered, and the sky returned to its original glory.

"Master Demon Lord..." Chi Liuli approached the Demon Lord and asked quietly, "By the way, who is this sister? Why haven't I seen her before?"

The Demon Lord sneered and said, "Let's go back first."

The group continued walking forward for several hundred meters until a huge stone pillar blocked their way.

The man stepped forward and stretched out his hand, and a black aura gushed out, sweeping across the entire stone pillar like a devil.

"open--"

With a cold shout, the stone pillar made a loud noise and automatically separated from the middle, slowly forming a deep stone door.

Behind the stone gate is a passage emitting a cold light. The walls on both sides of the passage are inlaid with flickering magic crystals, as if countless pairs of eyes are peeping in the dark.

The Demon Lord stepped in first, followed closely by Chi Liuli and another black-robed demon cultivator.

When you reach the end of the passage, the view suddenly opens up and you see a magnificent and gloomy demon palace.

The dome of the Demon Palace is extremely high and is shrouded in a strange fog, with black lightning flashing through it from time to time.

The hall is surrounded by various hideous golems, as if telling a bloody history.

The Demon Lord walked straight to the throne in the hall and sat down slowly. The throne seemed to sense his breath and emitted a stronger dark magic power, making his figure more majestic.

Chi Liuli stood in front of the prince, his eyes still wandering over the woman from time to time, his curiosity growing stronger.

"Bring them up." The Demon Lord said to the air.

I saw several ghost corpses appearing from somewhere in the shadows. Their bodies were ethereal, and they exuded a foul and cold aura. There was a strange green light flashing in their empty eye sockets.

The ghost corpses moved stiffly but extremely quickly. Soon they dragged out several people with their heads covered by black cloth and their hands tied behind their backs from the depths of the darkness.

These people were trembling all over, obviously terrified to the extreme, and they were making indistinct whimpering sounds. One of them was dressed in gorgeous clothes and was the most conspicuous.

"Youmingzi, why don't you come out and pay homage to me?" The Demon Lord said with a move of his eyes.

"Demon...Lord Demon Lord..."

The sound of something huge moving could be heard in the darkness, and then a moth as big as a mountain slowly emerged.

Its huge body was covered with a dark shell, and a faint blue light shone through the gaps in the shell, as if there was a flame burning inside its body.

The mouthparts of the moth are like a huge and sharp sickle, which seems to be able to tear the void with a slight tremor.

The most shocking thing is that the picture shows where the insect's pupil should be.

It was actually inlaid with the face of a human monk.

"You also know that you are too embarrassed to see me?" the Demon Lord said coldly.

"I admit my guilt!" You Mingzi said, lowering his bloated head.

The Demon Lord didn't say anything else. He just waved his hand and asked the ghost corpses to lift the black cloth on the heads of several people.

stab-

The ghost corpse's sharp claws slashed across, and the black cloth turned into fragments and fell, revealing several panicked faces.

"Where... are we?" Garlic Sauce's messy hair stuck to her cheeks and she asked in a trembling voice.

"Damned demon cultivator, if you have the guts, come down and fight me one-on-one!" Pickled Fish said with eyes wide open.

"Don't be rude in front of the Demon Lord!"

The moth stretched out a tentacle and slapped it in front of the few people.

Pickled Fish looked up and saw that colorless face, which they were all too familiar with.

He is their eldest brother.

Green beans.
