Chapter 1640 Insufficient Identity
Chapter 1640 Insufficient Identity
"My inherited memories include a section about summoning ancient demons, but I am currently unable to summon them."
"If you have a way to summon ancient demons, why can't you summon one?"
"Only the Palace Master of Demon Cloud Palace can summon the Ancient Demon, and my current status is not high enough."
“Young Palace Master, as long as you produce the seal, the eight of us can go out now and support you to take the position of Palace Master of Demon Cloud Palace.”
Does the seal inside the magic mirror count?
The eight demons exchanged glances. This wouldn't do; it had to be a physical object.
Xiao Yanbao: Master does know where the seal is. The first purpose of the Great Protector capturing Master was to obtain the seal from him.
It's a pity that Master is currently unconscious and we can't find out the whereabouts of the seal. Otherwise, having Brother Huo take the position of Palace Master of Demon Cloud Palace could have stopped this war.
Xiao Yanbao felt that she was now trapped in a vicious cycle.
Only by breaking that formation can we rescue Brother Huo's mother, save our master, and find out the whereabouts of the seal. However, breaking that formation will also break the seal that suppresses the demon realm.
Xiao Yanbao rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache coming on.
While everyone was racking their brains inside the magic bag, Xiao Yanbao looked up and saw blue flames bursting from the altar outside.
The demons cheered when they saw the blue flames.
Although Xiao Yanbao didn't know what the blue flames represented, she knew from the demons' excited expressions that it wasn't a good omen.
The priest in the very center raised his skull scepter toward the sky again and again, chanting incantations. Immediately, a pillar of blood several meters high rose from the altar, forcefully blasting a hole in the sky.
Xiao Yanbao quickly handed Huo Lichuan over to the Ruyi Bag.
Brother Huo, no matter what method you use, you must stop the ancient demon from appearing.
We should try to delay as long as possible.
If the ancient demons appear, then the war between the Three Realms and the Demon Realm will truly be unavoidable.
When Huo Lichuan stepped out of the Ruyi Bag and saw the scene outside, he gasped in shock.
The rattling sound of chains being dragged could be heard coming from the crack in the air.
The sound evoked an indescribable feeling in Huo Lichuan's heart.
In short, it was very uncomfortable.
Upon hearing the sound of the chains, the demons beneath the altar immediately began to bleed profusely.
The flowing blood formed a magic array.
The tip of the blood pillar began to change.
It was as if something was about to emerge.
Mo Yi couldn't see what was happening outside the Ruyi Bag, and he became somewhat anxious.
The book doesn't record the appearance of the ancient demons in great detail.
So Mo Yi wanted to see what such a scene was like.
"Yanbao, how is it outside now? Why don't you send me out again? Maybe I can still help the young master."
This time, Xiao Yanbao put an invisibility talisman on Mo Yi.
Not only was Demon One released, but the other demons were also released.
Given the situation outside, no magic should be able to notice them.
Of course, Xiao Yanbao also put invisibility talismans on the other demons.
However, Xiao Yanbao did not release the flute demon.
"Master, why don't you let me out too?"
"You won't be of much help even if you go out."
Because when everyone was talking about the Ancient Demon, the Flute Demon didn't say a word.
This proves that he is unaware of the ancient demons.
So even if he wanted to help, he couldn't.
Going out would only be a hindrance.
The Demon of the Flute was deeply hurt.
It felt that its status in its master's heart was not as high as that of the eight great demons.
As soon as the Eight Demons left the Ruyi Bag, they saw the array drawn with blood and felt a surge of restlessness.
I had an urge to rush up and bleed myself.
But I still managed to suppress it.
No one dared to move around outside, unsure if they would be discovered.
The demons' attention was focused on the formation, so they didn't notice their appearance.
Or perhaps it's because they've applied an invisibility talisman.
In short, not a single demon looked in their direction.
Something's about to emerge from that pillar of blood. Please help me stop it.
Although Huo Lichuan didn't know if he could stop it, he had to try.
Although he hoped to break the ice coffin formation, he didn't want the Three Realms to be in danger.
Although demon blood flows in his veins, his heart is biased towards Xiao Yanbao.
If Xiao Yanbao tells him to stop it, he will do his best to stop it.
[Young Palace Master, how can we help?]
This is their first time working with the young master, so they will naturally do their best.
Huo Lichuan's memories contain a method to summon ancient demons, so stopping him would be going against the grain.
That's what Huo Lichuan thought anyway.
As for whether this method will work, he didn't know.
Even if it only prevents them from coming out a little later, it doesn't mean they've done nothing.
That's enough.
Huo Lichuan told the Eight Demon Gang how to help him.
The eight demons nodded in agreement.
Huo Lichuan tried to draw out the seal pattern inside the magic mirror.
Although it's not the actual seal, it should be able to pass for the real thing if used.
The seal pattern went into the magic mirror by itself, and Huo Lichuan didn't know how to lure it out, so he could only try to do so.
On the seventh attempt, Huo Lichuan finally managed to draw out the seal pattern from the magic mirror.
If he couldn't elicit a response, Huo Lichuan was about to give up.
Huo Lichuan dripped his blood onto the seal pattern, then infused it with magic, and struck at the thing that seemed to be emerging from the pillar of blood.
That thing has already started to emerge.
Success hinges on this moment.
All the demons were staring at the thing on the pillar of blood; as long as that thing appeared, the ancient demon would surely be able to be summoned.
But the thing that had just sprouted was suddenly hit by something.
The head that had just popped out immediately retracted.
Not only did the thing shrink back, but the pillar of blood also suddenly fell down.
Although the pillar of blood did not fall back into the altar completely at once, it only barely reached the level of the altar.
The priest coughed up a mouthful of blood.
The demons immediately erupted in chaos.
"What's going on? What's going on? It was almost done just now."
"I think I just saw the seal smash into that pillar of blood."
"How is this possible? The seal has been missing for a long time, and we can't find it no matter how hard we look for it. Why did it suddenly appear at this time of day, and why did it smash into the pillar of blood?"
"Are you seeing things? Are you sure you saw it clearly? If it really is the Seal, then doesn't that mean the Seal doesn't want the Ancient Demon to come out?"
"Don't talk nonsense. Someone must be sabotaging us. The seal belongs to our Demon Cloud Palace. Even if the seal really appears, we won't smash the blood pillar." The speaker was the Grand Protector who had just arrived.
