Chapter 2227 The Thunderfire Array Shatters, the Demon Race Makes Its Move
Boom!
The ear-piercing explosions kept coming from the depths of Tianyuan Valley in the distance.
Chen Xuan and Chen Peng were both shocked and terrified.
"Master, what's going on? Such terrifying fluctuations in the power of rules! It seems like people are fighting!"
Chen Peng spread his divine sense and looked into the distance, speaking urgently.
Although Chen Xuan looked nervous, he ignored all of this.
He focused intently on releasing his divine senses, vigilantly observing everything around him.
After confirming that there was no danger around, he finally frowned.
"I don't know what happened in Tianyuan Valley ahead either. However, judging from the location, it seems to be the location of the Black Demon Forbidden Area!"
"Plus, just now, those bandit immortals suddenly tried to lure us with the Bodhi Fruit. I bet the explosion right now is related to them!"
Chen Xuan's expression turned extremely solemn as he spoke.
The allure of the Bodhi Fruit is immense.
For Chen Xuan, however, preserving his life was far more important than obtaining the Bodhi Immortal Fruit.
If one loses their life, possessing countless immortal fruits is meaningless.
"Master, should we go over and take a look?"
Chen Peng looked excited.
Chen Xuan frowned slightly.
After carefully weighing the pros and cons, he said, "Alright. Let's go take a look. But don't get too close. Otherwise, we'll be in big trouble!"
After giving a reminder, Chen Xuan and Chen Peng sped off towards the Black Demon Forbidden Land.
Unbeknownst to them, just as Chen Xuan and Chen Peng were heading towards the Black Demon Forbidden Land, the terrifying explosion they had just heard had already attracted the attention of all the powerful figures in Tianyuan Valley.
Before long, almost all the True Immortal realm experts shot off towards the Black Demon Forbidden Land.
Upon seeing this, Chen Peng and Chen Xuan, who were walking forward, both stopped in their tracks.
"Something's not right! That terrifying roar just now actually attracted so many powerful figures. Could it be that someone did it on purpose?"
"If it was intentional, what was their purpose in doing so?"
"Could it be that someone really intends to enter the Black Demon Forbidden Land and release that powerful demon?"
"That old man, I wonder how long he's lived. What's his current situation?"
"If the powerful demons really break out, we True Immortals alone are probably no match for them!"
Upon thinking about this, Chen Xuan immediately hesitated.
At that moment, a figure suddenly shot towards Chen Xuan from the distant sky.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, you're here too? Are you planning to go check out the Black Demon Forbidden Land?"
The person who arrived was Bai Zhi.
When Bai Zhi saw Chen Xuan, his face showed an undisguised excitement.
Chen Xuan could even tell that this guy clearly intended to invite him to go to the Black Demon Forbidden Land together.
"That... that terrifying explosion just now was incredibly powerful. I couldn't help but come and take a look."
"However, seeing so many fellow cultivators heading towards the Black Demon Forbidden Land, I decide to return the way I came!"
Chen Xuan gave an awkward smile and politely declined.
Bai Zhi wasn't angry at all.
Instead, she looked at Chen Xuan and smiled slightly.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, that loud noise just now seemed rather unusual. I heard someone say it was because of the appearance of the Bodhi Fruit!"
"Heh, you really don't plan to go take a look?"
Seeing that Chen Xuan remained silent.
Bai Zhi continued, "Fellow Daoist Chen, even with so many True Immortal realm experts like us going there, we might not encounter any trouble. Even if we do, with our strength, as long as we're careful, we should be able to save our lives. Besides, if a real opportunity arises in the Black Demon Forbidden Land, are you really planning to miss it?"
As Bai Zhi finished speaking, his gaze swept quickly over Chen Peng.
He could naturally tell that Chen Peng's strength had reached the Great Perfection of the late-stage Celestial Immortal realm.
They are only a hair's breadth away from becoming Golden Immortals.
Any expert with such cultivation would not miss the slightest chance to break through to the Golden Immortal realm.
However, Chen Peng remained calm throughout.
She seemed completely uninterested in what he was saying.
"Hehe, since Fellow Daoist Bai has put it that way, it seems I really should go with you to take a look. Very well, let's go together. If there's any danger, we can leave beforehand!"
Chen Xuan smiled slightly.
He changed his mind instantly.
Bai Zhi was overjoyed and patted Chen Xuan on the shoulder, saying, "Don't worry, with me here, I'll keep you safe and sound!"
Even so, Chen Xuan did not dare to truly entrust his safety to Bai Zhi.
Along the way, Chen Xuan inquired about the Black Demon Forbidden Land from Bai Zhi.
They were surprised to discover that Bai Zhi knew a great deal about the Black Demon Forbidden Land.
In fact, many details were mentioned offhand.
"According to Bai Zhi, the one imprisoned in this Black Demon Forbidden Land is not a real demon powerhouse, but an avatar of a demon powerhouse. Although Bai Zhi did not elaborate on the origin of this demon powerhouse avatar."
"However, this person has survived in the Black Demon Forbidden Land for so many years without perishing."
"This is enough to show that this person's strength is extraordinary."
"This powerful demon must be even stronger in real life!"
Chen Xuan muttered secretly.
On the surface, however, he remained calm and composed.
Little did they know that just as Chen Xuan, Chen Peng, and Bai Zhi were heading towards the Black Demon Forbidden Land,
The number of powerful individuals gathered outside the Black Demon Forbidden Land has now reached several hundred.
Under the deception of Huo Lingyan, the Jade Ink Saintess, and the Cage Saintess.
These powerful beings at the Celestial Immortal realm surged into the vicinity of the Thunderfire Array, relentlessly attacking its array light barrier.
Unfortunately, the power of the Thunderfire Array was simply too great.
Even if these people tried their best, they couldn't destroy it.
But these people had no intention of giving up, all for the sake of the Immortal Fruit of the Black Demon Forbidden Land.
They all instantly and tacitly gave their all.
Terrifying attacks rained down on the light barrier of the Thunderfire Array.
boom!
The violent attack fell as if it were real.
The incredibly powerful attack force crashed against the thick array of light.
The array's light barrier shook violently.
Not far away, Huo Lingyan, the Jade Ink Saintess, the Cage Saint Son, and others, who were watching from the sidelines, appeared calm on the surface, but inwardly they were sneering.
"Heh, these guys are really crazy. If they knew that after they opened the Thunderfire Array, what they would release was a powerful demon who intended to devour them, what would they think?"
"Are these people really rushing to become food for the demon race's powerful warriors? Since that's the case, I naturally can't stop them!"
"They brought this upon themselves, so they can't blame us. Hopefully, that demon senior will spare us after consuming so much blood."
The three of them each had their own ulterior motives.
They exchanged a glance and then waited quietly for the result.
About half an hour later, under the combined attack of everyone, the Thunderfire Formation finally showed some signs of weakness.
boom!
Accompanied by a terrifying and ferocious attack, it struck the light barrier of the Thunderfire Array.
The thick array of lightning and fire light barriers shook violently at this moment.
The terrifying attack caused the light barrier of the Thunderfire Array to shake violently.
Soon, a visible crack appeared rapidly on the light screen of the Thunderfire Array.
Upon seeing this, all the True Immortals who were attacking the Thunderfire Array's light barrier were immediately excited.
"Haha, look, we're almost there!"
"With such a large crack, it probably won't be long before we can destroy this thunder and fire formation."
"Once the Thunderfire Formation is broken, we can enter the Black Demon Forbidden Land and search for the Bodhi Immortal Fruit."
"I am not greedy, I only need five Bodhi Immortal Fruits."
"Fellow Daoists, let's hurry and destroy the thunder and fire array in front of us as soon as possible!"
At this moment, everyone was greatly invigorated and full of energy.
Little did they know that while they were joining forces to attack the Thunderfire Array, deep within the Black Demon Forbidden Land, in a secret chamber filled with the power of lightning rules...
An old man in black, whose hands and feet were bound by chains formed from the laws of lightning, was laughing incessantly as he looked at the huge light screen in front of him.
The scene displayed on the light screen was of countless powerful cultivators at the Celestial Immortal level joining forces to attack the Thunderfire Array.
At this moment, terrifying bolts of lightning power continuously coursed across the old man's body.
Its ferocious and terrifying attack power could crush an ordinary True Immortal at any moment.
Despite such suffering, the old man remained calm.
Even when a bolt of lightning as thick as an arm pierced his chest, he seemed to feel no pain whatsoever.
"So many years have passed, has someone finally been able to open the Thunderfire Array for this old man? Heh, although it's just a crack, the Thunderfire Array has finally loosened a bit!"
"What a pity, that old bastard Xuanming Ancestor is still missing. If I knew he was still alive, I would definitely find him and grind him to dust."
"If he hadn't betrayed me back then, would I have ended up like this?"
The old man laughed maniacally.
But soon, the old man's emotions became very stable again.
"Alas, so many years have passed, and the outside world must be completely different now. I wonder what our demon race is like now!"
"However, according to that little girl from the Heavenly Emperor Immortal Sect, it seems that our Demon Clan has lost the battle against the Immortal Ancestor!"
"However, the strength of the demon race may not be as great as before, but I can sense it. My true self should still be here."
"Once I get out of here, I will find the original body as soon as possible and restore my fighting power to its peak!"
"Since that's the case, I'll gladly accept these offerings that helped me open the Thunderfire Array!"
The old man laughed maniacally.
His icy gaze instantly fixed on the True Immortal realm experts on the light screen who were attacking the Thunderfire Array.
The next instant, the old man suddenly pointed his finger in the air.
A lightning-inspired chain on his wrist snapped off automatically.
Soon, the old man's withered finger pointed in the air.
A terrifying force of lightning law formed a miniature hand, which quickly disappeared into the secret room.
Before long, a golden, gleaming lightning hand appeared in the sky above the Thunderfire Array.
Before the powerful figures attacking the Thunderfire Formation could react...
The terrifying lightning hand swooped down with a whoosh.
It enveloped all the True Immortal realm experts below.
"Oh no! Is this an attack from the Thunderfire Formation? This is terrifying!"
"Run! It'll be too late if you don't hurry!"
"Quick...it's too late. Ah..."
In the blink of an eye, countless screams erupted from the scene.
At this moment, every powerful individual who attacked the Thunderfire Array was instantly annihilated by a single slap from the descending lightning hand.
Even their souls were completely destroyed.
Little did they know that at the moment these powerful figures fell, their life essence and vitality were all taken away by a mysterious force.
It then swiftly landed in the secret room where the old man was.
Before long, it completely entered the old man's body.
In just a short while, the old man's vitality and aura were noticeably stronger than before.
"Haha... I must say, the quality of these blood delicacies is quite good. Once I refine them, I can leave this place that has imprisoned me for countless years on my own!"
"Ha ha……"
Little did they know that just as the old man in the Black Demon Forbidden Land was about to be overjoyed at his escape, many unusual things were happening throughout the Tianmeng Mountains.
Countless powerful sects are on high alert at this moment.
