Chapter 2517: Continue Inward

Lu Xia Tian let out a breath, maybe in the eyes of others he was ruined, but being able to get this talisman, it was worth paying some price. 。The second item to appear at the auction was a top-grade...“Lu Daoyou’s Buddhist supernatural powers are becoming increasingly profound.” The Shadow Scorpion King looked at Lu Xiaottian with a deep meaning, obviously very wary of the Town Demon Tower in his hand. When Lu Xiaottian fought him before, he didn't use this magic weapon. Now it seems that this set of magical treasures is Lu Xiaottian’s trump card.

Even with the Phantom Scorpion King's current eyesight, the pagoda that has flown back to Lu Xiaottian's palm is flawless, unless he possesses absolute strength and defeats Lu Xiaottian openly. It is almost impossible to find the weakness of this magical artifact.

“Fellow Daoist Ying Xie’s hidden divine abilities are not weak either. I thought they could only be used in the Demon Sea, but I didn't expect them to work flawlessly even in this Soul-Devouring Land.” Lu Xiaotian smiled upon hearing this. His Buddhist sect’s divine abilities had already been seen by the other party, so there was no need to hide them too much.

After obliterating the giant skeleton's soul, the Shadow Scorpion King pounced on the remaining half-skeletons. After all, the giant skeleton's bone ring was already in Lu Xiaitian's hands.

Such a powerful creature, even if the things on its body are not needed by itself, they can be exchanged with other powerful ghost clan members for valuable spiritual objects.

Since the bone ring had already fallen into Lu Xiaitian's hands, Yingxie didn't think she had the ability to take it back. The remaining hope naturally fell on other ghosts.

The Shadow Scorpion wasn't slow, but before it could arrive, the ethereal flying sword, the Mysterious Fire Formation, and Ban Qianzhi had already teamed up to hack the remaining half-skull skeletons into pieces.

Lu Xia Tian and the others harvested the remaining crystal bone beads, from which the strongest one obtained three bone rings. Similar to the Sumeru rings used by human cultivators, they are space-type treasures used to store items needed for cultivation.

The Shadow Scorpion King wore a dark face. After the previous battle, although Lu Xiaoteng played a decisive role and broke the deadlock first, he had also put in no small effort. He didn't even get a single one. Although Lu Xiaoteng was stronger, his actions were too domineering. No benefit without early action, even under the demon lord, everyone has their own interests, let alone traveling with Lu Xiaoteng at this time.

“These ghost path artifacts belong to Shadow Scorpion.” Lu Xia Tian could see through the face of the Shade Scorpion King, this demon's strength was not low, its role could not be replaced by Ban Qian Zhi, otherwise, if Lu Xia Tian had only encountered these two powerful enemies just now, once a fight broke out, it would also be extremely dangerous.

Lu Xiaotian counted the giant skeleton and various ghost dao artifacts left by the Tongxin Twelve Ghosts. He kept some more valuable things, as for the rest, Lu Xiaotian was generous and directly gave them all to Meiying Scorpion King. Ban Qianzhi also took a share.

"Thank you, Daoist Lu." At this time, the face of the Shadow Scorpion King finally looked a little better. Although the ghosts they had just killed were not ordinary, those rare ghost-cultivation artifacts would inevitably fall into Lu Xia Tian's hands.

He wasn't flashy, but all things considered, his total worth wasn't low either. It was enough to get by. Back when he entered this underworld with the four-winged mantis and other monsters, powerful individuals like him were practically everywhere, far more domineering than Lu Xiaottian.

As for Ban Qianzhi, he didn't receive any of the benefits. However, the Shadow Scorpion King didn't notice anything amiss with Ban Qianzhi at all. The Shadow Scorpion King was also a little puzzled in his heart, wondering what kind of magic Lu Xia Tian had used on Ban Qianzhi, an old man, to make him so obedient.

The power was immense, even the Shadow Scorpion King was taken aback. This Blue Flame Demon Bottle, undoubtedly crafted by Lu Xia Tian, was a technique never before seen from Ban Qian Zhi's arsenal. After all, with Ban Qian Zhi's enhanced strength, he should naturally have more say. However, no matter how much the Shadow Scorpion King thought about it, he couldn't have predicted that a strand of Ban Qian Zhi's soul had already been captured by Lu Xia Tian's Soul Locking Jade, becoming his spirit beast.

After successively eliminating the giant skeletons and the Twelve-Headed Demon, a period of relative peace ensued in this void. No other significant risks were encountered. Some lower-ranking demons could be easily dealt with by Banchi at his fingertips.

All around are floating coffins of various colors: blue, black, purple, and green. There are also countless floating corpses and white bones. Just staying in such a place for too long can create a sense of inexplicable oppression in one's heart. Even those with unstable minds may be tainted by the sinister energy of this place, ultimately assimilated into it or becoming a floating corpse or skeleton in the void.

Every corpse floating in this void, every skeleton, was once a living being.

As they ventured deeper into this soul-stealing place, their consumption increased, especially from the drowsy gray mist in the void. Time seemed insignificant at first, but as it stretched on, the increasingly oppressive sleepiness made Lu Xia Tian and his companions' burdens grow heavier with each passing moment.

Even for a powerful figure like the Shadow Scorpion King, this was quite taxing. At this time, the three of them sat cross-legged on an empty coffin, recovering their depleted magical energy.

Each one was separated by a certain distance. Beneath Lu Xia Tian sat a pitch-black coffin, and Lu Xia Tian, who was sitting cross-legged on the coffin, seemed to be meditating to recover his strength. In reality, recovering only required a wisp of his divine soul to guide the internal force within his body. This did not affect Lu Xia Tian's thinking about other matters.

Lu Xiaitian is not only at the middle stage of Hesheng cultivation but also possesses the powerful defensive treasure, Five Elements Yuanci Gold Armor. The Tower of Suppressing Demons within him and the relics are all effective against demonic creatures throughout the world, so the gray mist's influence on Lu Xiaitian was relatively limited. Upon contact with Lu Xiaitian's body surface, it was automatically repelled by the Buddha light within him.

At this time, Lu Xia Tian and the Shadow Scorpion King, were both frowning deeply. The Shadow Scorpion King was troubled by this gray mist that made him drowsy. The deeper they ventured into this land of oblivion, the denser the gray mist floating in the air became. They didn't know how long this state would last.

While Lu Xia Tian obtained the giant skull and Tong Xin Twelve Ghost's bone ring, he also received some other relatively useful information. Lu Xia Tian is not a stingy person; previously in that battle, the Shadow Scorpion King had put in a considerable effort. However, Lu Xia Tian forcefully took all the appearing bone rings for himself, and only afterwards distributed some benefits to the Shadow Scorpion King.

Although Qing Li was his nephew, if he had any usable corpse demons in his possession, Lu Xia Tian wouldn't be stingy. However, what Lu Xia Tian truly valued were not these powerful ghosts or bone talismans, but rather the information about the underworld corpse grounds or the useful knowledge of this soul-absorbing land that could be gleaned from them.

The Shadow Scorpion King is ultimately a subordinate of the Demon Lord, so Lu Xiaotian naturally has to be on guard against him in everything he does. It's important not to let him know too many details about anything.

Although the giant skeleton and the twelve vengeful spirits left behind by Tongxin are extremely valuable, Lu Xia Tian doesn't personally need them. Besides giving some to Qingli, Luo Qian, or exchanging them with other ghost cultivators for spirit crystals or other spiritual objects in the future, there is no other use for them.
