Under One Person, Golden Light Transforms into God

And guess what? It's really open!
Zhang Huaidan was also bewildered by this.

But then a glimmer of light slowly appeared, and in an instant, countless rays of light and auspicious colors emerged, dispelling the confusion in my heart.

An indescribable aura easily enveloped the mind of a True Person. Zhang Huaidan felt as if he were in a daze, seeing a great river flowing endlessly down from the infinitely distant sky and pouring into the equally boundless abyss. In the sea, an incredible black dragon swam, and with a dragon's roar, it parted the abyss. Where the dragon's eyes shone, the celestial river flowed backward.

The Xuanlong is elusive, yet it controls everything within sight!
Zhang Huaidan was deeply shaken; this was indeed a magnificent sight that could awe a real person!
For the first time, Zhang Huaidan truly realized his own insignificance, and immediately confirmed without hesitation that the Grandpa Ao mentioned by Hengyue was definitely not at the True Person realm!

There is such an old monster hidden in this world.

He was both shocked and delighted; this senior must know!

As I calmed my thoughts, the rosy glow and illusions slowly dissipated, and I was no longer in the deep valley and old forest.

Zhang Huaidan looked around. It was a white space, just like the place where Hengyue had stayed before. It was clearly a secret realm created by someone with great supernatural powers and magic, only much smaller in size.

There was no cover in the secret realm, and everything was in full view. Not far ahead, a gate a hundred feet high stood tall, engraved with intricate and beautiful cloud and water patterns.

Even with Zhang Huaidan's keen eyesight, he couldn't stare at those patterns for long. He just had a feeling that if he could understand any one of the patterns, he could easily become a water lord and suppress the vast blue waves in the outside world!

These patterns are the manifestation of laws!

My heart trembled once more. What a grand gesture! They actually managed to inscribe the laws onto the portal!
What kind of immense power would it take to accomplish this?
Furthermore, the cloud and water patterns on the door number in the millions, and this is merely a doorway.

He took a deep breath and looked at the hundred-foot-high gate. There was a stone plaque on it, with characters that looked as if they had been carved by a knife and axe, but they were impossible to read clearly.

Turning my gaze away, I saw five dark pillars standing silently before the gate. They were neither stone nor wood, neither gold nor jade, and it was impossible to discern their specific material. The five pillars were all the same length, about nine zhang, like five soldiers guarding the gate. However, compared to the hundred-zhang gate, they were hardly eye-catching.

Zhang Huaidan spoke softly, "Hengyue, how should we pay our respects..."

But Hengyue looked on in disbelief.

Zhang Huaidan was surprised. Didn't she say this was her home?
It's understandable that my heart is pounding since it's my first time here. Hengyue doesn't need to make that face. Is she just putting on an act again?
"How could this be? This can't be real..."

Hengyue's eyes trembled, her small face sometimes looking confused and sometimes sad. She mumbled incoherently, not even bothering to greet Zhang Huaidan, and walked unsteadily toward the hundred-foot gate.

Zhang Huaidan was slightly surprised; this didn't seem like an act!
Silently following behind Hengyue, they soon approached the gate and the five mysterious pillars.

What puzzled Zhang Huaidan was that Hengyue wasn't looking at the doorway, but instead staring intently at the five mysterious pillars.

A moment later, his body suddenly swayed and he softly fell to the ground.

Zhang Huaidan reacted quickly, grabbing her by the collar.

With her two little feet dangling in the air, Hengyue glared angrily: "You bastard, don't you know how to hold onto this old woman!"

Zhang Huaidan ignored her. Once she had her feet firmly planted, she looked at the five mysterious pillars and immediately noticed something unusual.

I just looked from a distance and saw five pillars that were entirely black; I don't know what they were made of.

The material is still indistinguishable, but it may not be entirely black.

He examined it carefully but found nothing unusual. However, his premonition was not unfounded, so he used his keen eyesight.

In an instant, five colors of light—white, blue, red, indigo, and yellow—flowed endlessly, vying to catch the eye. Each light seemed to be driven by a beast, and each contained immense power!
Zhang Huaidan was slightly startled, took half a step back before regaining his footing, and quickly dispelled his supernatural power.

"This is?"

Hengyue's body trembled slightly. She had no mood to joke with him. She smiled sadly and lowered her head dejectedly: "Five Spirits Seal".

Zhang Huaidan glanced at her: "The second lock on Senior's cave? Senior's security measures are quite sophisticated, don't tell me you can't unlock it."

Hengyue gently shook her head: "Security measures, does Grandpa Ao need this?"

Before he could speak, Hengyue said in a daze, "The previous sensing array and secret incantation were all to prevent other people or demons from accidentally entering the cave."

Zhang Huaidan frowned slightly, keenly sensing that Hengyue's mood was not quite right: "Then what about these five Xuan Pillars?"

Just now, when he looked into the five-colored pillars, he saw that they all carried immense power, but he couldn't see the gate behind them at all.

Therefore, in order to enter the cave, one must find a way to move these mysterious pillars, which is naturally considered to be a threshold set up by that senior.

Now that Hengyue has said this, it seems there were no Xuanzhu pillars in front of the cave entrance before?

Hengyue, however, was unusually dejected and had no mood to explain to him: "You didn't just use the supernatural power to make your eyes light up. Take another look."

Zhang Huaidan used his supernatural powers again, but this time he was prepared and was not alarmed by the power of the Five-Colored Mystic Pillar.

They quickly identified the problem.

The crimson pillar was the weakest, incomparable to the other four. Zhang Huaidan was confident he could easily eliminate it. However, the remaining four pillars were all stronger than the last!

The power contained in that yellow pillar, in particular, was so great that it startled even him.

only?

Where do these powers come from?
He unleashed his full power, determined to see everything clearly!
As if breaking through a thin barrier, the light emanating from the Xuanzhu's power dissipated from his heart, and Zhang Huaidan saw the true nature of the Xuanzhu!
He closed his eyes, his heart filled with doubt and uncertainty.

Hengyue felt a pang of sadness: "You saw it clearly."

After a moment of silence, Zhang Huaidan nodded: "Please accept my condolences."

He naturally understood why these five mysterious pillars were called the Five Spirits Seal, not the Five Elements Seal.

This is because, apart from the crimson pillar, the other four pillars each contain an extremely terrifying living spirit!

Over the long passage of time, these living beings have long since lost all consciousness, leaving only the instinctual drive left behind before their consciousness faded away.

These four creatures are a weasel, a hedgehog, a snake, and a rat.

Hengyue once said that there were four 'little demons' who followed the true dragon in cultivation, and they were also her family.

At this moment, the sorrow on her face speaks volumes about the outcome.

Hengyue wiped her eyes, looked up, and tried to smile: "You don't need to worry about me, it's okay. Brother Huang and the others were just ordinary wild beasts that had become spirits. When I left the cave, the youngest one, Hui Xiao Si, was almost dead. I was prepared for this outcome."

The way she was crying and laughing at the same time was truly heartbreaking; she looked like a stubborn child.

Zhang Huaidan nodded: "You misunderstood. I was never worried about you."

Hengyue was stunned for a moment, then became furious: "Don't you have any conscience?!"

Zhang Huaidan rolled his eyes. What did this have to do with whether he had a conscience or not? No one could truly understand another's joys and sorrows, especially since Hengyue was a demon, and a centuries-old witch at that. Zhang Huaidan crossed his arms: "Let's get down to business. What should we do now to successfully enter the senior's cave?"

Hengyue glared at him hatefully: "Break the Five Elements Seal and suppress the remaining spirits of Brother Huang and the others!"

Zhang Huaidan stroked his chin: "It's not that we can't give it a try."

Hengyue laughed dismissively: "You?"

Zhang Huaidan remained expressionless. To be honest, he wasn't entirely confident he could handle any one of the four "little demons" below, let alone all four at once.

Even though its consciousness has been erased, leaving only an instinct-driven wandering spirit, the power contained within the Xuanzhu is not fake.

Once they take action, they will inevitably come out in full force. The four former true demons swarmed forward, and Zhang Huaidan did not think he could escape unscathed.

However, death is death, and the Five Elements Seal, with no living spirit within the crimson pillar, contains the weakest power, which may be an excellent breakthrough point.

Zhang Huaidan didn't argue with her and pointed to the crimson pillar: "The seal is flawed, and that is our hope. In a moment, you will directly manifest your true form and restrain the living spirits inside the four pillars. I will find a way to destroy the crimson pillar, and the power of the seal will be greatly reduced. At that time, you and I can break through the seal and enter the cave."

Hengyue nodded repeatedly, having to admit that the kid was quite clever.

To be able to come up with a solution in such a short time, no wonder he became a True Person at such a young age.

Since it is called the Five Elements Seal, it must be a whole, with close connections between the elements.

Although Brother Huang and the others have become unconscious wandering spirits, each of them possesses the power of a demon immortal. With the amplification of the Five Elements Seal, even if the two of them go all out, they probably won't gain any advantage.

Fortunately, the seal is a whole; if one of the seals is destroyed, the other four will be affected.

The only problem is that the person who restrains the four living spirits is essentially facing an attack from four demon immortals, which is far more dangerous than the person who destroys the crimson pillar.

Zhang Huaidan was well aware of this, as was Hengyue.

"Why is it me who has to restrain the living spirit, and you can't take over?"

Zhang Huaidan said solemnly, "Since we have agreed to be on the same path, we should help and support each other!"

His gaze was calm and profound, possessing a captivating power that stirred Hengyue's heart. Yes, they were kindred spirits, and even walking together; they were fellow Daoists.

Why make such clear distinctions between fellow Daoists?

Zhang Huaidan's success also means her success, and his success is the same...

Hengyue was filled with shock and anger: "You cunning brat, you almost fooled me! You tricked me into risking my life without batting an eye, how can you humans be so wicked!"

Then came a torrent of words, a barrage of blows aimed at Zhang Huaidan's knees.

Brother Huang and the others have become unconscious living beings, and they don't care what Hengyue's identity was before.

Before his consciousness faded, his last obsession merged with his instinct: to stop any creature that dared to enter the cave!

Even Hengyue wouldn't dare say she could escape unscathed from the attack of four demon immortals.

"Ouch!" Hengyue was furious when she was hit on the forehead: "You, you, you!"

Zhang Huaidan said expressionlessly, "What do you mean, 'what ... I'? You've cheated me so many times before, now you're paying me back with interest!'"

Hengyue muttered softly, "When have I ever tricked you?"

He snorted in dissatisfaction: "You stingy brat! I'll block it, fine! Hurry up. Besides, if we encounter a similar situation again, you should go first."

Zhang Huaidan was somewhat surprised, thinking there would be some trickery involved, but Hengyue agreed so readily.

It should be noted that the living spirits of these four mysterious pillars were transformed from a minor demon who cultivated under the guidance of a true dragon.

While they were still alive, they had no way of knowing what level of True Demon they had reached.

Although they had lost everything and were left with only instinct, the power of the four demon immortals under the blessing of the Five Elements Seal was still unimaginable.

Hengyue's willingness to bear this danger and face the Four Spirits directly dispelled some of his preconceived notions.

Regardless of her past, she is indeed a trustworthy fellow Daoist.

With a heavy heart, he thought, "Stop talking nonsense, let's go!"

"Don't rush me, I know!"

In an instant, the true demonic form manifested, and the ethereal demonic energy swept through the secret realm.

The four spirits residing within the four mysterious pillars immediately sensed this and, as expected, swarmed out.

Four different but equally terrifying demonic energies spread out, perfectly merging due to the seal, suppressing Hengyue's demonic energy like a candle flickering in the wind.

Zhang Huaidan's expression changed slightly; he had underestimated the terrifying power of the Four Spirits.

Hengyue screamed, "I can't hold on much longer!"

After saying that, he charged forward head-on, forcefully rushing towards the seal!
Zhang Huaidan was impressed, but remained extremely calm, knowing the time was not yet right!

"Brother Huang, it's me, it's Hengyue!"

"Ah! Gray Four, you're so ruthless!"

Hengyue was besieged by the four spirits, and she was terrified after just a few exchanges.

She possesses the true demonic body and also has a different bloodline, making her far more powerful than ordinary true demons.

The four spirits were left with only instincts, and their power was mostly depleted. Even if they had attacked together, Hengyue would not have ended up in such a miserable state.

However, the Five Elemental Seals are linked together, which increases the power of the Four Elemental Seals by more than double.
Hengyue's army suffered a crushing defeat.

Although she screamed in agony and was covered in wounds in the blink of an eye, she didn't utter a single word of urging.

'A good opportunity!' Once Hengyue had attracted most of the Four Spirits' 'hatred,' Zhang Huaidan's eyes flashed, and like a falling meteor, he charged straight at the crimson pillar!
Even before getting close, one could feel an immense suppressive force, capable of suppressing even a True Person. The Five Elements Seal is indeed terrifying. Hengyue was able to withstand the siege of the four elements within the seal, truly worthy of her extraordinary bloodline!
A dark golden light suddenly appeared, and a pair of dark golden arms materialized from his ribs. Zhang Huaidan slightly opened his eyes, determined to destroy the crimson pillar with overwhelming force!
Success or failure depends on this!
But Hengyue's screams could no longer be heard.

His heart sank. Could it be Hengyue?
No, how could she, a dignified demon of a different species, possibly perish...?

'boom! ’

Zhang Huaidan was forced back several steps, staring incredulously at the crimson pillar! (End of Chapter)
