The transmigrated villain wants to escape Feng Aotian's hellish situation.

“The Great Roc King wouldn’t do anything pointless; there must be something good in these ruins.”

"Speaking of which, there was a burst of fiery power in that pile of rotten wood by the door just now, but unfortunately it has almost dissipated. Perhaps we arrived too late? Have the things here already been moved or destroyed by the Platinum Clan?"

"Impossible! All the named members of the Platinum Roc clan are now corpses. Those who escaped are being hunted down by our men. They can barely protect themselves, how could they have time to come here?"

"That's strange."

"Let's see what's deep inside these ruins."

"........."

As the demon kings chattered amongst themselves, a small blue butterfly flew in and landed in an inconspicuous corner.

Sixty-sixth Gate Game

The three people outside the Blazing Tomb were looking at the scene with thoughtful expressions.

Xuan Tianyi spoke first:

"It's really strange. All we've seen along the way are monsters. There's nothing of value here."

"Could this just be a training ground for the Platinum Roc clan?"

Xuan Tianyi seemed to strongly agree with Situ Ye's conjecture, nodding repeatedly.

"I think so."

Liu Ruoqing, however, had a different opinion on this matter.

"It's unlikely. If it were a training ground, they wouldn't set up such a large isolation array on the outside. The resources required for such an array would be enormous. The Great Roc King once led a group of demons; he wouldn't do something so brainless. This Blazing Tomb must have something special about it."

At that moment, the jade pendant in Liu Ruoqing's arms suddenly emitted the voice of Shi Huanyu.

"Ruoqing's guess is correct. If I'm not mistaken, those rotten logs they saw earlier were hibiscus wood. Combined with the roots on the ground, I guess there used to be a hibiscus tree there."

"Hibiscus tree?"

Xuan Tianyi and Liu Ruoqing both looked puzzled, as this had touched upon a blind spot in their knowledge.

Situ Ye, who was standing to the side, explained.

"The Fusang Tree is a divine tree in the legend of the Golden Crow clan. It has the ability to nourish the soul and absorb energy. Because it is a divine tree inhabited by the Golden Crow, if a Golden Crow once lived on it, there may even be a trace of the Golden Crow's divinity remaining in it. If you can grasp that trace of divinity, you may be able to comprehend the magic of extreme yang, or even comprehend the martial image of the immortal beast."

Xuan Tian's eyes widened.

"Is it real? Is it something from a legend?"

Liu Ruoqing, who was standing to the side, spoke up:

"No wonder, that makes sense. Since the Fusang tree is a divine tree, then Fusang wood must be a good thing too."

The sigh of Shi Huanyu came from the jade pendant.

"Sigh, logically speaking, it should be, but I see that the spiritual energy on that Fusang tree has dissipated, so it must have been drained of its spiritual energy, causing it to wither and die. Without spiritual energy, the Fusang tree is just a piece of rotten wood."

"Oh, I see."

Upon hearing this, a look of regret flashed across the faces of all three.

If there really is a living sacred tree, they would like to pay their respects and see what this legendary thing looks like.

Meanwhile, within the Imperial Qian Sect.

Still at the dinner table, Bei Yunlan gazed thoughtfully at the scene inside the sphere.

"According to the Valley Master of Poetry, the spiritual energy of the Fusang tree has been drained, so the spiritual energy on the Fusang tree should have dissipated very quickly. But why do I see that there is still a little bit of spiritual energy left on the Fusang tree?"

Fu Haiqing, who was standing to the side, spoke up.

"That means the Fusang tree withered and collapsed not long ago. Wait, could it be that someone beat these demon kings to it..."

Suddenly, something in the picture caught the attention of Mu Xianxian, who had been silent all along.

"Forget about that for now, there's something new... This is... a statue of the Golden Crow?"

Inside the cave.

All the demon kings were drawn to the crimson gate before them, and even from a distance, they could feel the intense heat emanating from within it.

"I knew it. The Great Roc King wouldn't do anything meaningless. There really is a treasure here."

After the demon king finished speaking, he rushed over, and the demon kings around him did not hesitate either, rushing towards the gate together.

Some have already secretly made preparations and begun to use their own methods.

The reason these demon kings were able to explore the ruins together peacefully was because there was nothing of value along the way.

If there really were something good, these demon kings would probably be fighting tooth and nail by now.

The eight demon kings rushed to the entrance of the crimson gate in an instant.

At this moment, a crimson light suddenly flashed in the eyes of the golden crow statues on both sides, and a scorching aura surged out.

Only then did the demon kings realize something was wrong, but it was too late to escape.

A massive golden cage made of flames instantly enveloped the eight demon kings, and towering golden flames ignited within the cage.

In an instant, flames engulfed the bodies of the eight demon kings.

Hidden in the shadows, Yin Kangxuehan watched with trepidation. If Qin Yangjun hadn't stopped her earlier, she probably would have suffered the same fate.

She knew that the flames couldn't harm these demon kings; at most, they would only injure them.

But this is also the best opportunity to take action.

She looked at Qin Yangjun beside her.

Qin Yangjun shook his head.

"not the right time yet."

The next second, a powerful surge of demonic energy suddenly erupted, and the figures of several demon kings appeared in the flames.

"The True Fire of Oblivion... This doesn't seem like the work of the Great Roc King."

A demon king looked at the cage formed by the flames with a solemn expression.

This True Fire of Oblivion has an extremely strong ability to devour spirits, and it is tangible but intangible, making it impossible to collect, let alone use as a trap.

"Let's not worry about who did it. This Dark Flame can devour demonic power. Let's not hide anything now and break this cage first."

Upon hearing the words of this demon king, the other demon kings all showed a strange expression.

"Okay."

"Row."

"..."

The demon kings all echoed in agreement.

"In that case, listen to my command, and everyone attack the weak point of this cage."

"three."

"two"

"One"

However, after the demon king finished counting down, none of the demon kings made a move, including the one who spoke first.

Instead, they looked at the people around them.

It wouldn't be difficult for eight demon kings at the Mahayana realm to break free of this cage, but once they actually started to break it, they couldn't stop, or they would be devoured by the flames.

If even one person among them manages to sabotage the situation without taking action, the others will likely suffer a great loss.

They might not die, but they certainly wouldn't be qualified to compete for the treasure behind that stone door.

Everyone knows this.

So when they saw that no one was making a move, everyone just sneered.

The group looked at the demon king, who had spoken first, with disdain on their faces.

The demon king was also shameless, showing no fear of the gazes of those who were walking by.

At this point, the safest approach is to wait it out.

This "Ignorant True Fire" has no primordial source, so it won't burn for long and won't kill them.

Even if their demonic power is mostly depleted in the end due to resisting the flames, it doesn't matter.

After all, they were all demon kings, and none of them didn't have something to restore their health. At this moment, they weren't wary of traps, but rather of the people around them.

Yin Kangxuehan, hidden in the shadows, watched the demon kings in their cages without uttering a word.

She glanced sideways at Qin Yangjun beside her, but Qin Yangjun showed no intention of making a move.

The more composed Qin Yangjun was, the more terrifying she found this kid to be.

If it were her, she would have made her move as soon as they fell into the trap.

Judging from his confident demeanor, it seemed he hadn't considered the possibility of unexpected situations.

Such a calm and composed mindset is simply not typical of someone of this age.

Yin Kangxuehan didn't know when Qin Yangjun would see an opportunity, so she could only wait with him.

Time passed slowly, and about 15 minutes went by.

The cage began to thin, and the flames within it gradually faded.

The demon kings' demonic power had been largely depleted, but they had already prepared restorative pills. As soon as the cage was worn away, they would immediately consume the pills.

Whoever is slow will be punished, because now is the best opportunity to reduce numbers.

The fewer people competing for it, the higher your chances of getting the treasure.
