Qin Shi stared at the wutong for a long time. "I can't guarantee anything right now. I need to enter the tree and see the source of the demonic energy. If it's too powerful, I won't be able to do anything."
Hong Lian's face hardened when she heard Qin Shi's words. She was rather displeased. "Hey, you were so confident earlier. Why are you backing out now that you've seen how powerful the demonic energy is?"
"Hong Lian, don't be rude to our little friend." Jiutian stopped her.
Hong Lian pouted and snorted coldly. She then stopped talking, but her face was filled with urgency.
The phoenix clan had been trapped in the Nirvana Realm for a few months.
Hong Lian was extremely worried about the situation outside. Although the phoenix clan was in the Nirvana Realm, the Nirvana Realm was safe, the phoenix clan still had many subordinate beast clans.
If the demonic realm erupted, they would probably not be able to escape. Hong Lian only wanted to leave as soon as possible. It would be good if she could protect the beast clans. "Little brother Qin Shi, don't hold a grudge against sister Hong Lian. She's worried too.
"Little Brother Qin Shi, don't hold a grudge against Sister Hong Lian. She's just worried. She's been managing the Phoenix Clan all these years. She has feelings for many of the Phoenix Clan's subsidiary clans. Now that the Phoenix Clan is in trouble and those subsidiary clans are in trouble, she must be very worried," said a member of the Phoenix Clan next to Qin Shi.
Qin Shi sighed. "I'm not that narrow-minded. I also have an irreconcilable grudge with the Pi Group, but I can't guarantee anything right now. I'll do my best to help you. After all, it's good news for the world if the phoenix clan can leave."
"Sigh, then I'll have to trouble you."
Jiutian knew that he hadn't seen the exact situation yet. It would be too much to ask Qin Shi for a guarantee.
"Senior Jiutian, do you know how to go under the wutong?" asked Qin Shi.
"There's a fiery passageway under the tree. It's the phoenix clan's final resting place. It should work there."
As Jiutian spoke, he waved his sleeves and the square suddenly burst into flames. After the divine parasol tree was affected by Jiutian's blood essence, an empty passageway suddenly appeared under its intertwining roots.
"Ancestor Divine Tree, I'm Junior Jiutian. Please open a path for the Phoenix Clan."
Jiutian cupped his fists in a very sincere manner before taking the initiative to bow towards the void.
"Little friend, this is it." Jiutian turned to look at Qin Shi and said.
Qin Shi nodded. He then followed Jiutian, Hong Lian, and some of the higher-ranking elders of the Phoenix Clan into the depths.
As soon as he entered the depths of the Divine Parasol Tree, Qin Shi couldn't help but smack his lips. There was actually a huge independent space here. It was like a circular world, and it was very spacious inside. The surroundings were filled with the roots of the Divine Parasol Tree, and these roots were engraved with ancient words passed down from the Phoenix Clan.
"As expected of the Phoenix Clan. To think that there's such a world here." Qin Shi couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"Yes. Back then, this Divine Parasol Tree had a very high status in the ancient times. It could be considered as an expert of a region. It had always appeared with a clan leader of the Phoenix Clan. Back in the ancient times, this Divine Parasol Tree even managed to severely injure a Devil King level fiendish devil. It could be considered as a supreme existence," said the devil.
Qin Shi was slightly speechless. He didn't expect this Divine Parasol Tree to be an expert of the Rebirth Realm.
"Thirty thousand years ago, when the Nine Demon Kings were defeated, their bodies could not be destroyed. It was this Divine Parasol Tree that suppressed them," said the devil.
"You're saying that there's a high possibility that the body of the Nine Demon Kings is sealed under this Divine Parasol Tree?"
"That should be the case. Other than the Nine Demon Kings, there should be many other fiendish creatures. Those fiendish creatures are all very strong. Some of them even have the bodies of Devil Venerables and Immortal Venerables."
After saying that, the Nefarious Devil reminded Chen Feng, "So, kid, you must be careful. Although a soulless body is just a shell, the bodies of these fierce devils are different. Many of their bodies have been refined with the Magic Puppet Technique. Even without a soul, they can still launch attacks."
Qin Shi nodded his head, then followed everyone to continue moving forward.
But very quickly, Jiu Tian and the Phoenix Clan's group came to a halt. Their faces turned solemn.
Because they suddenly realized that the path ahead was blocked by an extremely dense devil qi. This devil qi was like a violent evil spirit, baring its fangs and claws. The moment Jiu Tian and the others took a step forward, the devil qi seemed as though it was going to pounce on them and tear them apart.
Looking at the devil qi, Jiu Tian frowned. "What a terrifying devil qi."
"I really didn't expect that there would be such a massive amount of demonic aura within the Mythical Parasol Tree." The few elders were a little ashamed. They were angry at Qin Shi just now because of this matter.
"Little friend, looks like your guess is right. Senior Wutong is really sick. Some of the things that he suppressed back then seem to have started to corrode him."
Jiu Tian looked at Qin Shi helplessly. "I guess we won't be able to go any further. Our bodies have been infected by the devil qi. If we force our way in, we might cause some of the devil qi in our bodies to explode."
Qin Shi nodded his head and took a step forward alone. As Qin Shi approached, the malevolent devil qi immediately roared and turned into countless ghostly heads that pounced on Qin Shi.
In an instant, Qin Shi looked like he was about to be devoured by tens of millions of ferocious demons. The massive mass of demonic aura that was over a thousand feet fell. The power was too terrifying. At this moment, some of the elders of the Phoenix Clan had to take a step back.
"Little friend!" One of the elders of the Phoenix Clan shouted.
However, Qin Shi didn't bat an eyelid in the face of the devil qi. He didn't even take a step back. Instead, he looked down at his feet and revealed a smile.
Boom!
All of a sudden, when the demonic aura approached the Qin Stone Square Inch, all of them came to a halt. Then, all of them let out unwilling roars.
"As expected!" Qin Shi smiled as he looked at the devil qi that couldn't get any closer.
The members of the Phoenix Clan were surprised when they saw this. They sighed in relief, "Little friend, just what is going on?"
Qin Shi stared at the sky and pointed at his feet. "Actually, Senior Divine Tree has always been guarding this place. Right now, below my feet is the place where he set up the seal. That's why all the demonic Qi can only attack here. If they go any further, they'll also be punished by the seal. Although Senior Divine Tree has already been corroded by the demonic Qi and is in a sickly state, it's still not something these broken demonic Qi can shake."
"So senior God Tree has always been protecting us," all the experts of the Phoenix Clan rejoiced.
"But what do we do now?
The demonic qi here is too powerful. If we can't get rid of it, how are we supposed to purify the demonic qi in the outside world? The demonic qi will grow along with senior God Tree's roots and envelop the outside world.
Sooner or later, this seal will be broken in the Void. "
"We can't go in right now," said Jiutian.
At this moment, Hong Lian looked at Qin Shi. She bit her fiery-red lips and said gently, "Oi, do you have an idea?"
"Even Senior Jiutian can't get in. Do you think I can?
Do you want to die? "Qin Shi rolled his eyes.
Hong Lian was a little disappointed but she didn't want to give up, "Didn't you say that we can't deal with the demonic qi by ourselves? Hey, are you mad at me because of what happened before?
If that's the case, I apologize. "
Hong Lian was stubborn but she knew what was important. The most important thing right now was to get rid of the demonic qi in the Nirvana Realm.
The Demonic Qi in the void was the only way the Phoenix Clan could see the light again.
Qin Shi shook his head, "I'm not that narrow-minded. The demonic qi here is very strong. Some of them are at the demon sovereign level. There's also the demonic qi of the nine demon kings. I won't be able to get in."
Qin Shi purposely paused and said slowly, "But there's one person who can go in. If he's willing to help, he might be able to solve the problem here."
"Who?" The Phoenix Clan's experts were excited, "Do you know him, little friend?
Can you introduce him to the Phoenix Clan? "
Qin Shi faintly smiled. He raised his hand and rolled up his sleeves. At this moment, the Demonic Totem that had practically covered Qin Shi's entire back was revealed. The moment the boundless aura appeared, it caused the demonic aura behind Qin Shi to feel a chill run down their spines, causing them to retreat in succession.
The Phoenix Clan's members were shocked when they saw the Nine-Eyed Dark Qilin's totem.
Jiutian widened his eyes and stared at the totem. "This, this totem, could it be …"
Qin Shi smiled faintly, "Senior, you're right."
Jiu Tian's expression instantly turned solemn. His face couldn't help but twitch a few times. At this moment, a few elders of the Phoenix Clan beside him had already taken out their spiritual Qis, ready to attack the demonic creature in Qin Shi's arm at any time. However, Jiu Tian smiled bitterly and extended his hand to stop the elders beside him.
"Clan Leader, you're …" The elders of the Phoenix Clan said coldly.
"Our Phoenix Clan can't let such a terrifying demonic thing live."
"It's useless. If he wants to kill us, let alone us, even our ancestor from 30,000 years ago wouldn't be a match for him," Jiutian smiled bitterly.
Hearing Jiutian's words, all the experts of the Phoenix Clan widened their eyes. At this moment, Jiutian looked at Qin Shi with a strange expression, "Haha, little friend Qin, I finally understand why you know so much about the ominous fiends."
Qin Shi smiled and patted the totem on his arm. "Alright, come out."
