The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 757

Chapter 757: 753 Chapter 757: 753 “That group of demons reside in the Suspended Cave, located deep in the heart of the Fire-spreading Mountain, five hundred Li away. As for their cultivation level, I am weak in strength and was locked in a cage all the time, so I really don't know about the cultivation level of those demons,” explained Huo San with a worried look on his face.

Shen Luo slightly furrowed his eyebrows. Observing Huo San, he did not seem to be lying, and soon enough, his expression relaxed.

“Good, I am somewhat satisfied with your answer. However, I have some things to do and can't let you leave for now. You should stay here for a while,” he suggested, lifting his chin slightly.

Huo San's eyes flickered inconsistently, speechless for a moment.

“What? Are you dissatisfied?” Seeing Huo San's expression, Shen Luo asked lightly.

“Great Immortal has saved my life – I dare not have such thoughts. My hesitation just now was due to something else. May I humbly ask if you intend to go to the Suspended Cave?” Huo San quickly expressed his gratitude, then timidly asked his question.

Shen Luo did not deny it, and nodded.

As Huo San was currently in the Heavenly Book Space, completely isolated from the outside world, he did not fear the leak of this information.

“If you are going to the Suspended Cave, I implore you to rescue the other members of my tribe as well. I can ensure that all members of my tribe will work for you. Although the power of my Fire Charm Tribe isn't strong, we do carry the bloodline of the Ancient Golden Crow and excel in the art of multiple strikes. We can gather the entire tribe's power to form the Ancient Mysterious Fire Battle Array. Its power is enough to incinerate mountains and boil seas. When Sheng Ying King arrived at the Fire-spreading Mountain that year, our Fire Charm Tribe persisted for several days based on this Mysterious Fire Battle Array. Eventually, Sheng Ying King had to personally act and attacked our Clan Leader using Samadhi True Fire. Our tribe was then defeated. We will definitely be useful to you,” Huo San pleaded, kneeling on the ground.

“If I get the opportunity, I will try, but I can't guarantee success.” Shen Luo pondered for a while before speaking. He didn't promise too much, though he did develop a little interest in the Mysterious Fire Battle Array.

“Thank you, Great Immortal. Thank you, Great Immortal.” Huo San repeatedly bowed to Shen Luo.

Shen Luo waved his hand at him, and with a surge of his Divine Sense, he exited the Heavenly Book Space and arrived outside, heading deep into the mountain range.

He hadn't flown far when a black shadow flew over from a distance. It was that bird-headed demon from before.

“I was about to look for you. I did not expect you to come to me so willingly.” Shen Luo was delighted and immediately flew forward to meet it.

The bird-headed demon had a troubled expression. Huo San was an anomaly within the Fire Charm Tribe, naturally carrying Fire Essence, which is very important to the Great King. It was imperative that he was not lost.

While it was fleeing, it looked around. At this moment, a golden light suddenly appeared in front of it.

The bird-headed demon was startled, cried out in surprise, but before it could finish speaking, its body was enwrapped by a powerful suction force. The world before its eyes seemed to spin, as if it had fallen into a bottomless abyss.

When the bird-headed demon regained its senses, it found itself in a golden space. Its sight could only reach two or three zhang away, any further was blocked by golden light.

The cultivation level of the bird-headed demon was far above Huo San's. It could vaguely sense a huge pressure surrounding it, as if a giant sword was hanging overhead, ready to fall at any moment.

“Who dares to imprison me with an array? I am the vanguard under the command of Sheng Ying King; do you want to die?” The bird-headed demon shouted sternly.

Shen Luo's Divine Sense entered the golden space. He was about to reveal himself and talk to the bird-headed demon, when he suddenly remembered the method of enslaving spiritual creatures that the white-robed elder had previously taught him.

“Although it seems a bit wasteful to use it on this guy, let's give it a try,” he murmured to himself.

In accordance with what the white-robed elder had said, the number of living creatures recorded in the Heavenly Book was limited. This fragment of Shen Luo's Heavenly Book could only accommodate about thirty more.

Moreover, once a living creature was recorded, it could not be deleted, nor could it be replaced. So, every recording must be chosen carefully.

However, since Shen Luo now had plenty of slots available, wasting one for a trial didn't matter much.

Murmuring incantations, he formed a hand seal and pointed into the Void.

There was a humming sound around the bird-headed demon, and six golden lights suddenly appeared out of thin air, transforming into six golden ancient mirrors pointing at its body.

The bird-headed demon was horrified, red lights like flames emerged from the curved knife in its hand. It was about to strike the golden ancient mirror when the golden ancient mirrors simultaneously flared up with golden light. Six golden light pillars fell and enveloped the bird-headed demon's body.

The bird-headed demon's body stiffened instantly, as if it was fixed in place. It opened its mouth to scream, but no sound came out.

Shen Luo silently operated the secret method, constantly forming hand seals.

Bizarre patterns emerged on the golden ancient mirrors and countless tadpole-like runes appeared within the six light pillars. They continuously merged into the body of the bird-headed demon.

The bird-headed demon's body started trembling like chaff, its expression reflecting extreme pain and resentment.

However, as the tadpole runes permeated its body, the bird-headed demon's countenance quickly changed. Its whole body radiated golden light, and its expression of resentment turned serene, as if it had gained a profound understanding.

However, its eyes quickly rolled back, and it fainted.

A golden light flashed in front of the bird-headed demon, and the figure of Shen Luo emerged. He pointed and made a hand seal.

The six golden ancient mirrors disappeared with a flash, and the bird-headed demon collapsed on the ground of the space, motionless.

“Is that a success?” This was Shen Luo's first attempt at enslaving a spiritual creature. He had no experience and relied solely on the chant taught by the white-robed elder to activate the spell. As for whether it was truly successful, he had no idea.

Moments later, the bird-headed demon slowly awakened. Seeing Shen Luo in front of it, it immediately knelt down in reverence, “Greetings, Master!”

Shen Luo felt a jolt as a connection was established between him and the bird-headed demon, as if a Spiritual Communication Seal had been planted inside it, allowing him to clearly perceive the demon's emotions.

He used his technique to perceive the listings within the Heavenly Book and indeed, a new entry for the bird-headed demon in front appeared at the end of it.

Now Shen Luo finally believed that he had truly subdued the demon before him. A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he spoke:

“What is your name? What is your position under Sheng Ying King? And why did you come to the outskirts of the mountains?”

Although the other party did not seem to be lying, he was still worried.

“Reporting to Master, I am Black Feather, a member of the patrol troop under the command of Sheng Ying King. I am responsible for monitoring the safety of the Suspended Mountain. Today, a member of the Fire Charm Tribe escaped. That Fire Charm was a member of the Fire Charm Royal Clan, carrying the power of Fire Essence. Sheng Ying King values him quite a bit, and I was ordered to capture him,” the bird-headed demon reported respectfully.

Hearing this, Shen Luo sneered inwardly, realising that Huo San had indeed hidden some information.

“Is Sheng Ying King currently in the Fire-spreading Mountain? What is he doing?” he asked immediately.

“The Great King has been refining a treasured item in the secret chamber of the Suspended Cave these days. However, I don't know what the treasure is,” replied Black Feather, shaking his head.

“Refining a treasure… How many demons with cultivation at or above the True Immortal Stage are there in the Suspended Cave now?” Shen Luo was taken aback, and then asked the question he was most concerned about.

Unlike Huo San, Black Feather was a guard of the Suspended Cave and would certainly know the strength of the experts inside.
