At the same time when Ye Xiao attacked, another Demonic Cultivator also made his move.
It was a middle-aged Demonic Cultivator holding a bell in his hand. His demonic energy poured into the bell and instantly became incomparably huge, trapping many corpses inside.
"Puff!"
Ye Xiao also took out Sea Dragon Spear and attacked. One of the corpses' heads was instantly pierced by the Sea Dragon Spear.
At the same time, the bell of the middle-aged demonic cultivator also shone with black light, turning that headless corpse into a bloody mess.
"Your cultivation base is too low. Stand back a bit so that not to get hurt!" The middle-aged Demonic Cultivator said to Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao was the one who killed the corpse, so this middle-aged Demonic Cultivator was just here to take the credit for Ye Xiao's work.
However, Ye Xiao naturally would not bother with these matters. The twenty or so people were all hiding in an open area. Behind the middle-aged Demonic Cultivator stood two demons, a male demon, and a female demon.
"Everyone, since the exit is gone, why don't we go deeper and see if we can find a way out?" The middle-aged Demonic Cultivator suggested.
His words obtained the agreement of many people. Now that the corpses were all around them, killing people, everyone was still in a state of shock. Naturally, they needed a backbone.
The middle-aged Demonic Cultivator looked behind him as if he was asking for the male and female demons' opinion.
The male demon didn't seem to mind and casually nodded. The middle-aged Demonic Cultivator immediately understood and turned his head to say, "It will also be safer if everyone is together. The corpses will soon find us. We have no time to lose. We are leaving now."
All the Demonic Cultivators and demons immediately agreed with him.
The middle-aged Demonic Cultivator looked at Ye Xiao again and said, "Little friend, you're still too young. It's even more dangerous here, why don't you follow us?"
Ye Xiao shook his head and replied, "Forget it, I'm used to being alone."
The middle-aged Demonic Cultivator said with a tinge of regret: "Really? That's such a pity."
"There's no such thing as a pity." Ye Xiao then looked at the others before saying, "Let me advise you all, go your own ways and you will have a chance to live. If we get together, we will die even faster."
"Brat, what are you talking about!"
"He was kind enough to offer you to come together with us, yet you are spouting nonsense here. Truly, nothing good can come out of your mouth. If it's not safe together, are you going to we'll be safe by ourselves?"
"Hurry up and f*ck off. We don't want to see you again!"
Everyone started to curse, afraid that the middle-aged Demonic Cultivator would not bring them along.
The middle-aged Demonic Cultivator laughed and said, "Little friend, you're exaggerating too much, I am only helping others so that everyone can survive."
"That's all I have to say. Farewell!" Ye Xiao saw that these people did not believe him, so he did not say anything.
"Tsk, who cares about him?" A few Demonic Cultivators and demons said in disdain.
"Senior, let's hurry up and leave. Those corpses will come soon!"
The middle-aged Demonic Cultivator nodded his head and looked at Ye Xiao's back, a cold light flashing across his eyes.
.....
In the valley, Ye Xiao continued to absorb the surrounding infernal energy as he travelled. If one were to look from afar, Ye Xiao's path forward was extremely strange, with many twists and turns, as if there was no fixed direction.
"The direction of the baleful aura is coming from deep inside the valley. However, that is not the true source of the baleful aura."
Ye Xiao withdrew his Divine Sense and muttered in low voice. Just now, Ye Xiao had already scanned the entire valley with his divine sense. There was probably a Dao Manifestation Realm Corpse buried here.
This valley, the plants here, and everything here was the result of this corpse. Normally, this kind of place was called the Corpse's danger zone in the demon world.
These Corpses had absorbed the essence of heaven and earth as well as infinite infernal energy. Because of this, their bodies would often produce some wondrous treasures.
If he could get one or two, it would be extremely valuable and profitable for him. However, the danger involved in this process was limitless.
These Corpses already possessed extremely strong intelligence. Even if they died, they would still find a way to revive themselves. Also, whenever such corpses appear, they'll cause a huge bloodbath. Because of this, such corpses were called Blood Corpse.
"This kind of Blood Corpse should have a Blood Core. If I can devour it, maybe, I can cultivate the Fifth Layer of Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique!" Ye Xiao thought in his heart as his eyes lit up.
After fusing together with the World Exterminating Demon Dragon, Ye Xiao has gained a lot of knowledge and information about the demons and demons' path. It was more like an inheritance passed down by the World Exterminating Demon Dragon to Ye Xiao, and this inheritance not only had various abilities of the World Exterminating Demon Dragon, it also had lots of information about the demon path and destruction.
The reason he came to the Blood Demon Sect is to enter a place that is filled with blood energy, absorb those blood energy and cultivate the Fifth Layer of Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique.
Now, by chance, he came across a Blood Corpse. If he could take away the Blood Core of the Blood Corpse, he would naturally not let it go.
Ye Xiao followed the direction of the baleful aura and quickly found a gigantic cave.
Outside the cave, there were even traces of a battle. There were many corpses scattered around. They seemed to have been burnt by fire and their bodies gave off a charred aura.
Apparently, someone had already entered this cave.
Just as Ye Xiao walked in, he saw a demon run out frantically with a trace of madness on his face.
"Dead? All are dead!" That demon ran past Ye Xiao while muttering like crazy.
This was a demon from the South Demon Alliance. The green armor on his body was the proof of his identity. This armor on his body didn't have much damage but he had already gone insane.
Ye Xiao focused his gaze, he discovered a trace of the Blood Corpse's aura on that person's body.
"You? Wait a moment." A weak voice suddenly came out from beside Ye Xiao's ears.
Ye Xiao stopped and turned around to see.
He saw that not far away from him, a blurry shadow had appeared. This figure was very blurry but under Ye Xiao's attentive gaze, it gradually became clear.
She was a very delicate woman and her entire body was covered with wounds. She looked very pitiful.
"I am the guardian of this place? They injured me. Young master, can you help me?" The woman said.
Ye Xiao looked straight at her and said, "You're the guardian of this place?"
"Although there are treasures here, there is still a powerful existence sealed inside. It's just that everyone was greedy and did not know how dangerous it was, so they injured me."
Even though there was not the slightest bit of aura emitted from the woman's body, if one used the Spiritual Sense or Divine Sense to inspect, they would be able to detect a very dangerous aura.
Ye Xiao said indifferently: "How do you want me to help you?"
The woman's face suddenly showed a hint of bashfulness as she took out a pouch of red powder and said, "My back was poisoned, but I can't reach there. Can you apply this medicine to my back?"
After she finished speaking, the woman seemed to have done it on purpose, revealing her fair and smooth jade back.
Ye Xiao laughed and replied, "Alright, I'll help you."
The lady was ecstatic, she immediately half laid down as though she wanted Ye Xiao to apply the medicine on her back.
But Ye Xiao didn't move from his place at all.
"Young Master, you?" The lady turned her head in confusion, only to suddenly realize that in Ye Xiao's hand, a red stream of fire was flickering non-stop. This fire was not a normal fire, there seems to be a very terrifying power hidden inside this fire. The lady felt if this fire were to land on her body, it'll not extinguish until burning her to death.
"Fire Law!"
The woman exclaimed, turned around, and was about to run away. But before she could run, Ye Xiao had already slammed his other hand onto her body.
"Puff!"
The woman spat out a mouthful of blood and flew four to five meters away before heavily crashing into the stone wall.
