A bone-chilling cold air enveloped the area, making it feel as if one were in the deepest hell, sending chills down one's spine.
"Sister, I'm scared!"
Xiao Han Mengci nestled in Xiao Bai's arms, trembling all over.
"Don't be afraid, we're here!"
Xiao Bai offered a word of comfort.
Li Yao then unleashed his divine sense to investigate the surrounding situation.
Soon, he sensed an extremely strong demonic aura emanating from a hidden place.
"It should be there!"
Li Yao pointed to that secluded spot and said something to Xiao Bai.
As he spoke, he stepped through the void as if walking on flat ground, and soon arrived at a desolate graveyard.
Xiao Bai, carrying Han Mengci, also arrived here.
Although this desolate tomb is already in ruins, the size of the tomb and the remaining tombstones alone indicate that the person buried here was not an ordinary person.
Legend has it that this is the burial place of a great general from the Sui Dynasty, whose status was extraordinary.
Unfortunately, with the passage of time and the occupation of this place by the Red Demon King, the General's Tomb has become a desolate tomb that no one dares to visit.
Li Yao looked around and finally focused his gaze on the tomb.
He flipped his hand and unleashed a beam of white light.
With a loud bang, an entrance as tall as a person appeared in the tomb.
"Let's go in and take a look!"
Li Yao said something.
After saying this, he went into the tomb first.
Afterwards, Xiaobai led Han Mengci into the tomb.
The tomb passage is quite spacious, allowing two people to walk through at the same time.
On their journey, they encountered some government agencies.
However, in Li Yao's eyes, these institutions were merely for show.
With a simple gesture, he deciphered all the mechanisms.
Soon, they arrived at the tomb chamber.
There is a very exquisite coffin here.
"Who dares to disturb this general!"
A voice suddenly rang out in the tomb, startling Han Mengci so much that her face turned pale and she immediately threw herself into Xiaobai's arms.
"Tell the Red Demon King to come out and die!"
Li Yao turned his gaze to the coffin.
Because the other person's voice came from inside the coffin.
"How dare you disrespect the Crimson Demon King! You're courting death!"
An angry roar came from inside the coffin.
The next moment, the coffin began to tremble violently, and the entire tomb chamber shook violently, as if it were an earthquake.
Suddenly, the coffin flew up and crashed down on Li Yao with a whoosh.
Li Yao activated his magic incantation, condensing a ball of Samadhi Heavenly Fire in his hand, which he then hurled directly at the oncoming coffin.
In an instant, with a loud bang, the coffin exploded, and a corpse dressed in general's armor burst out.
At the same time, the Samadhi Heavenly Fire completely engulfed the coffin and the remains.
The raging fire quickly turned the entire tomb chamber a fiery red.
At this moment, Li Yao discovered that there was a secret passage in the place where the coffin had originally been placed.
"The Red Demon King must be hiding inside!"
Li Yao glanced at Xiao Bai, then leaped into the secret passage.
Then, Xiaobai led Han Mengci inside.
Seeing how formidable Li Yao was, Han Mengci was no longer as afraid as before.
Li Yao quickly arrived at a huge stone hall through the secret passage.
In the center of the stone hall was a huge pool of blood, bubbling and gurgling as if it were boiling. A thick, pungent smell of blood permeated the entire stone hall, making one want to vomit.
Xiao Bai was worried that the terrifying scene before him would frighten Han Mengci, so he pointed and knocked Han Mengci unconscious.
In the center of the blood pool, a man dressed as a merchant was soaking in the blood.
This person was much larger than an ordinary person, with a ferocious and menacing face, a red eye on his forehead, and both eyes were also bloodshot.
He must be the Red Demon King!
"Who are you, daring to trespass on my territory!"
The Red Demon King's three eyes gleamed fiercely as it roared.
"I heard that the Earth Spirit Orb is in your possession; I've come to retrieve it!"
Li Yao crossed his arms and said calmly.
"Hahaha... You think you can seize the Earth Spirit Orb? You're dreaming!"
The Red Demon King let out a wild laugh.
"well!"
Li Yao sighed and said, "I'm telling you, why don't you just be a normal person and instead choose to be a monster? I don't know what you're thinking!"
Indeed, the Red Demon King was originally human. In order to cultivate magic, he commanded the Zombie King to control zombies and absorb human blood, thus becoming a half-human, half-demon in the blood pool.
"What's wrong with monsters? Those so-called humans, they're so pathetic and laughable, always groveling and haggling over the smallest gains!"
The Red Demon King sighed.
You're talking about your past self, aren't you?
Li Yao smiled gently.
Judging from the Red Demon King's current attire alone, it is clear that he was originally a merchant.
Merchants are often meticulous and calculating when it comes to even the smallest profits.
"good!"
The Crimson Demon King readily admitted it, saying, "Therefore, I will never again be a damn merchant!"
"Then why are you still wearing a merchant's clothes?"
Li Yao asked.
"Only in this way can I constantly remind myself never to be as humble and subservient as before."
"The Red Demon King said with emotion."
"So that's how it is!"
Li Yao nodded and said, "We've finished our idle chatter. Hand over the Earth Spirit Orb now, and I might consider sparing your life."
"Hahaha...This is utterly ridiculous."
"Whether you can leave here depends on my mood. How dare you spout such nonsense here."
The Red Demon King laughed wildly and without restraint.
As soon as he finished speaking, his face darkened, his eyes turned bloodshot, and with a wave of his hand, six or seven zombies and seven or eight flying-headed monsters sprang out of the blood pool.
These zombies and flying-headed monsters let out terrifying screams and pounced on Li Yaofei.
"A trivial skill!"
Li Yao chuckled and immediately conjured a ball of Samadhi Heavenly Fire in his hand, which he then unleashed.
In an instant, a group of zombies and flying-headed monsters screamed a few times before being engulfed by the Samadhi Heavenly Fire, instantly turning into a wisp of black smoke and disappearing without a trace.
"You can also use Samadhi Fire?"
The Red Demon King was taken aback.
It turns out that the Red Demon King also knows Samadhi Fire.
"wrong!"
Li Yao smiled and said, "This is not called Samadhi True Fire, but Samadhi Heavenly Fire!"
"Whether you are Samadhi True Fire or Samadhi Heavenly Fire, today I will make you die here!"
The Red Demon King's face contorted into a ferocious expression.
As he spoke, he began to chant profound and difficult-to-understand incantations.
At the same time, his hands were waving in the air in very strange movements.
Soon, the Red Demon King's incantations echoed throughout the entire stone hall.
Suddenly, with a loud bang, flames burst forth from the blood pool, leaping out and flying back and forth throughout the stone hall.
Chapter 491 Earth Spirit Orb
The Crimson Demon King unleashed the 'Flame Curse', combined with the Samadhi True Fire, turning the entire stone hall into a sea of fire.
The blazing Samadhi Fire generates intense heat that can incinerate everything.
If it were anyone else, they would probably have been reduced to ashes by the raging flames.
However, this time the Red Demon King encountered Li Yao and Xiao Bai.
