"Back then, during the ancient war between the three races, the beastmen were no match for the combined forces of the enemy and the gods, and suffered repeated defeats."
"Later, the beastman leader Chi You used all his remaining strength to open a passage to another world in the Li Shu Mountain area, which is the Well of Gods and Demons."
"A portion of the beastmen entered the other world through the Well of Gods and Demons. Later, this portion of the beastmen became the demons and created the Demon Realm."
"A portion of the beast race remained in Lishu Mountain to multiply and thrive, becoming the demon race, and Lishu Mountain thus became the largest demon realm."
"The remaining beastmen scattered to various places, forming different demon realms."
Li Yao nodded slightly and then asked, "Do you know how to enter Li Shu Mountain?"
"In order to prevent the monsters in the Demon Locking Tower from escaping from the top of the tower into the inner Shu Mountain, the Shu Mountain Sect, at the suggestion of the Prison King, rebuilt the Demon Locking Tower with the Seven Star Dragon Pillars and filled it with Demon Transformation Water after the reconstruction."
"Therefore, the entrance to Lishu Mountain is in the Demon Transformation Pool."
"As long as you dive into the Demon Transformation Pool, you will find the entrance, which is the entrance to the Inner Shu Mountain."
"That's what the fairy in the book replied."
"It turns out the entrance was hidden in the Demon Transformation Pool."
Li Yao and Xiao Bai exchanged a glance and suddenly realized.
Chapter 518 Heavenly Ghost Emperor
The people of the Shu Mountain Sect are really clever; they actually hid the entrance to the Inner Shu Mountain in the Demon Transformation Pool filled with Demon Transformation Water.
Those demons and monsters feared the Demon-Transforming Water the most. Once they came into contact with it, they would be seriously injured even if they didn't die.
Therefore, even though the demons in the Demon Locking Tower knew that the entrance to the demon realm was in the Demon Transformation Pool, they dared not risk jumping into it.
This is also why the immortal in the book, even though he knew the entrance was in the Demon Transformation Pool, did not escape into the Inner Shu Mountain.
Furthermore, the fairy in the book enjoys reading and does not have a strong desire to escape the Demon Locking Tower.
Therefore, even though he knew there was an entrance to the Demon Transformation Pool that led to the Demon Realm, he never mentioned it to the other demons in the tower.
After determining the location of the entrance to the demon realm, Li Yao's eyes darted around, and he asked again, "Immortal in the Book, have you ever heard of Shennong's Nine Springs?"
"You even know about Shennong's Nine Springs?"
This time, the immortal in the book was even more shocked.
The legend of Shennong's Nine Springs gradually faded into the annals of history after the ancient war between the three tribes.
In this world, almost no one knows about Shennong Jiuquan anymore.
He only learned of the existence of Shennong Jiuquan in ancient times by seeing some fragments in the vast collection of ancient books.
He never expected that anyone would know about Shennong Jiuquan.
"Shennong Jiuquan was born alongside the great god Shennong. In ancient times, it was the most important life vein in the world."
"After the ancient war between the three races, the Nine Springs of Shennong were scattered to various places and their whereabouts became unknown..."
Xiao Bai calmly gave a brief overview of the Shennong Jiuquan.
This left the fairy in the book even more astonished.
Because much of the information Xiaobai provided was something he himself was unaware of.
Seeing the immortal's expression in the book, Li Yao felt a little disappointed.
It's likely that the immortals in the book didn't understand Shennong's Nine Springs as well as they did.
However, he still asked, "Immortal in the Book, do you know the whereabouts of Shennong Jiuquan?"
"You all know more than I do. If you don't know, how would I know!"
The fairy in the book shook his head in shame.
He was a self-proclaimed "literary immortal" who had "read through all the classics, histories, philosophical works, and the writings of various schools of thought," yet there were things he didn't know.
His answer left Li Yao slightly disappointed.
However, Li Yao did not have high expectations for the immortal in the book.
After all, Shennong's Nine Springs is an ancient legend that has been lost for a long time.
Besides, he was quite familiar with the world of Chinese Paladin, but it was only after entering the world of Chinese Paladin that he unintentionally heard about the existence of Shennong Jiuquan.
He estimated that Shennong Jiuquan was a setting from the game Legend of Sword and Fairy 6.
Because he was unfamiliar with Sword and Fairy 6, he was unaware of the existence of Shennong Jiuquan.
However, he was quite lucky, as he managed to obtain the spirits of both the Hot Sea Divine Spring and the Spring Nourishment Divine Spring.
His trip to the Demon Realm should allow him to find out the whereabouts of the third divine spring.
Perhaps, Demon Lord Chonglou also knows the whereabouts of other divine springs.
Therefore, the most important thing right now is to find the entrance to the Well of Gods and Demons as soon as possible and enter the Demon Realm.
"Immortal of the Book, since you are so familiar with the Demon-Locking Tower, would you please lead the way for us?"
Li Yao looked at the immortal in the book and said.
"this……"
The fairy in the book hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, I'll lead the way!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the scroll beneath his body emitted a golden light, and like wings spreading, it floated in the air and took flight.
The immortal in the book possessed the spirit within the scroll after his death, so his spirit could not leave the scroll.
"Come with me!"
The immortal in the book said something, and the scroll beneath his body flew off in a certain direction.
With the fairy in the book leading the way, Li Yaohe's journey went much more smoothly as he walked down the Demon Locking Tower.
With the guidance of the immortal in the book, Li Yao easily solved the puzzles on each floor.
Of course, they also encountered many monsters along the way.
All the monsters that charged at them were dealt with by Li Yao and Xiao Bai without any mercy.
Incidentally, Li Yao also managed to get some freebies.
The fairy in the book was stunned to see Li Yao and Xiao Bai effortlessly kill all the ferocious monsters.
It should be noted that the Demon-Sealing Tower is filled with demon-transforming water, and the demons that survive are all extremely powerful.
The fact that they could easily kill these monsters showed that their strength was terrifying, far beyond his imagination.
Soon, led by the fairy in the book, Li Yao and Xiao Bai arrived at the first floor of the Demon Locking Tower, where a bronze door appeared before them.
“Young Master Li, once you pass through this bronze gate, there is a blood pool inside. In the blood pool, there is a whirlpool. Go down into the whirlpool, and you will reach the bottom of the Demon Locking Tower.”
The fairy in the book pointed to the bronze door in front of him and said.
At this moment, Li Yao suddenly spoke up: "No rush, look, why is there a jar here?"
As he spoke, he pointed to a jar in a corner.
"There really is a jar!"
Following the direction Li Yao pointed, Xiao Bai indeed saw a jar.
"Forget about this broken jar, let's hurry up and leave!"
The fairy in the book seemed a little off.
"Old man, how dare you show your face here? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be trapped in this broken jar!"
A somber voice suddenly came from inside the jar.
"Huh? There's another person in the real jar?"
Xiao Bai was surprised.
"Bah! I am the noble leader of the Heavenly Ghost Clan, how dare you call me a lowly human? You are insulting me!"
The voice inside the jar roared angrily.
"Hmph, you're trapped in this jar and you're still so arrogant!"
Xiao Bai snorted coldly.
"Immortal in the Book, what exactly is going on?"
Li Yao looked at the immortal in the book.
In fact, he had already guessed who was trapped in the jar: it was the Heavenly Ghost Emperor.
However, he had some doubts.
He remembered that the reason why the Heavenly Ghost King was trapped in the Demon Absorption Altar was because he wanted to save his good brother Kong Lin.
However, Kong Lin was killed by the aftershocks of the fake demon lord's magic when Li Yao was dealing with him.
Therefore, Kong Lin will no longer appear in the Demon Locking Tower.
Therefore, the Heavenly Demon King should not be trapped in the Demon Absorption Altar.
Also, the time when the Heavenly Demon Emperor was trapped seems incorrect.
What exactly happened?
"It's a long story!"
The fairy in the book sighed.
He then briefly recounted why the Heavenly Demon King was trapped in the Demon Absorption Altar.
It turns out that besides Kong Lin, the Heavenly Ghost Emperor had another good brother.
A year ago, his good friend was trapped in the Demon-Absorbing Altar.
In the book, the immortal taught the Heavenly Ghost King to use his head to smash the altar to save him. The Heavenly Ghost King was indeed saved, but he was trapped in the Demon-Absorbing Altar.
It was because of this incident that the Heavenly Ghost King came to hate the Immortal in the Book.
