[Chapter 1335: Heaven Burning Furnace]
At this time, the leading woman said, “Little brother, the time is up. Are you coming here by yourself, or do you really want us sisters to do it?”
She pointed at the white jade sculpture while speaking, meaning that Yang Yiyu should offer blood and essence for sacrifice.
In fact, she wanted Yang Yiyu’s life.
Yang Yiyu’s attitude towards this was to laugh and say, “I have a better way to solve it. I can revive the white jade sculpture without blood and essence sacrifice, or let you wonder if it is you who resurrected…”
In the final analysis, the nine women are the nine tails of the Nine-tailed Sky Demon King, the flesh and blood from the Nine-tailed Sky Demon’s body, or the Nine-tailed Sky Demon King himself. As soon as
Yang Yiyu’s words came out, the faces of the nine women changed.
At this time, Yang Yiyu knew that he was right, and the old man and his inference were both correct.
Then he slowly deduced everything he and the old man thought of, and told the nine women. Anyway, he also had to buy time to let the old man find some treasure to create an illusion.
If you want to open the treasure of the Lord of Heavenly Demons, the nine-tailed fox carved from white jade is the key, and this key is the nine tails, or the nine women in front of you.
Perhaps according to the original intention of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Demon King, she cut off her nine tails to protect or set up a test for the nine women. In the end, those who pass the test and reach here will be able to enter the core of the Lord of Heavenly Demons and obtain the treasure of the Lord of Heavenly Demons.
The whole premise is that the nine tails must return to the body of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Demon King, but after countless years, the nine tails have developed consciousness on their own. If they are
allowed to return to their bodies, it means that the nine of them will disappear. How can this be possible? They finally developed self-awareness, and each of them has achieved success in cultivation, becoming nine independent creatures. It is difficult for them to die for a treasure of Heavenly Demons.
Naturally, they are unwilling…
After having spiritual intelligence and consciousness, it means that the nine tails of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Demon King will be truly independent in the future, and they can all have their own pursuits.
However, they cannot protect or open a treasure place for the dead Lord of Heavenly Demons.
And not only that, they want to go out, leave the Nine-tailed Heavenly Demon Palace, and leave this cage.
Yes, for the nine of them, this place is now a cage.
But if they want to leave here, they must fulfill the promise of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Demon King to the Heavenly Demon Lord.
This promise is that the Nine-tailed Heavenly Demon King promised the Heavenly Demon Lord to guard this place, choose one or wait for a destined person at a time, and open the treasure of the Heavenly Demon Lord.
Let’s not talk about what the treasure is, just talk about the way to open it, that is, to let the nine tails return to the body, to the stone sculpture with broken tails, so that the Nine-tailed Heavenly Demon King can be complete, or maybe he can come back to life, or what changes will happen to the stone sculpture to open the treasure of the Heavenly Demon Lord and fulfill the promise to the Heavenly Demon Lord.
If this promise is not fulfilled, then the nine tails will never leave here.
So, after the nine tails became conscious, the way they thought of was to sacrifice their blood and essence, use other people’s lives to replace them, and let the stone sculpture revive!
This is why Jiuer asked Yang Yiyu if he could come back to life at the beginning.
Yang Yiyun finally came. How could these vixens let Yang Yiyun go? How could the nine of them get freedom if they didn’t fulfill the promise made by the Nine-tailed Sky Demon King to the Sky Demon Lord?
It is said that the Nine-tailed Sky Demon King is also a subordinate of the Sky Demon Lord and will not betray the Sky Demon Lord. He even sacrificed himself to guard the palace and cut off his tail to protect the Sky Demon Lord’s treasure. It can be imagined that the Nine-tailed Sky Demon King is absolutely loyal to the Sky Demon Lord.
Even each of the seven Sky Demons is very loyal.
It’s just that the Nine-tailed Sky Demon King would never have thought that countless years later, her nine tails would actually develop independent consciousness, and the subsequent development would not develop as the Nine-tailed Sky Demon King expected.
After Yang Yiyun finished speaking about his speculations, the nine-tailed fox spirits began to change their expressions, and then the purple-clothed woman in the lead suddenly laughed and said, “Haha, you are smarter than I thought.
That’s right, we sisters do think so. When the Heavenly Demon Palace caused a disaster, I, or our original body, the Nine-tailed Heavenly Demon, and the other six Heavenly Demon Kings used the last mana to create the Seven-Star Heavenly Demon Palace in order to protect the things left by the Heavenly Demon Lord.
In fact, we have been loyal to the Demon Lord. Now we call ourselves consciousness and have the hope of proving the truth. We have become independent beings. Why should we die?
We have done our best. Hundreds of thousands of years of protection and endless years have been worthy of the Demon Lord. We are unwilling to give up.”
When she said this, the purple-clothed woman almost roared.
She was very excited.
After a while, she took a deep breath, and suddenly smiled charmingly, “Since I’ve said it all, I’ll tell you everything. In all these years, you are the first one to enter the Nine-tailed Heavenly Demon Palace. We have no one to talk to, and we are really frustrated.”
After a pause, she continued, “Our true body, the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox, is a nine-layer Heavenly Demon. She arranged things for us. Those are the rules under the Heavenly Dao, and we have to say that it is difficult for us to violate them. She
cut off the nine tails and made us nine tests. In the end, those who pass our nine tests can enter the treasure place of the Heavenly Demon Lord.
Of course, this is not the key. The key is, as you said, we are the nine tails, a part of the Nine-tailed Sky Demon King’s body that was cut off. In order to open the Sky Demon Lord’s treasure, we need to return to this stone sculpture…
and… once this happens, we will disappear forever. This stone sculpture is actually a key to open the Sky Demon Lord’s treasure, a key that contains the power of the Nine-tailed Sky Demon.
In the end, when the Sky Demon Lord’s treasure is opened, the power of the stone sculpture will be exhausted and dissipated directly into the world, and we will disappear completely.
This is so cruel. If it were you, would you be willing… Haha, I’m afraid you wouldn’t, little brother?
Fortunately… we have all developed self-awareness over the endless years, so all this can change. As long as someone comes in, we can let them come in to replace us, offer blood and essence, and finally open the treasure.
Hehehe… Then, the treasure belongs to us sisters. Do you really think that the treasure of the Heavenly Demon Palace is so easy to get?
Don’t worry, little brother, you won’t be the last one. There are already people outside, and they will all become sacrifices like you.
As long as the sacrifice is enough, it will stimulate the stone sculpture to open the treasure of the Lord of the Heavenly Demon. Naturally, we sisters will not be bound by the curse of heaven and can leave here. You are our benefactor, but unfortunately, you will become a sacrifice after all.
Well, I have said everything that needs to be said. Since you don’t want to, we have to do it ourselves…”
After the purple-clothed woman finished speaking, she gave Yang Yiyu a weird smile, and suddenly she snorted coldly: “Do it…” As soon as
the word fell, the nine women waved their hands at the same time.
Yang Yiyu thought they had some powerful magic to attack him, and stepped back.
But the next moment, he found that the nine fox girls did not use any magic to attack him, but performed some strange hand gestures. They stood there and did not move at all.
Then Yang Yiyu found that the scene around him suddenly twisted…
In an instant, the world changed, and raging fire appeared all around. The ground under his feet also began to emit flames, and it became extremely hot.
He was surrounded by endless flames, and the world on all sides was full of flames.
Yang Yiyu snorted coldly and operated He spread the wings of an eagle behind him, flew up, and wanted to rush out.
However, when he flew out, he found that he seemed to be in a space that looked like a furnace, and he couldn’t fly out at all.
Moreover, the flames in the air became larger and larger, and he had no choice but to fall to the ground again.
At this time, the voice of the purple-clothed woman was heard laughing in the whole space: “Little brother, don’t struggle. This is the Burning Heaven Furnace. You have nowhere to escape. If you don’t come out, just wait to be refined…”
Yang Yiyu’s face turned ugly. Although he didn’t know what the Burning Heaven Furnace was, he felt it for a while and felt that it was not an ordinary flame. The temperature was very high.
He didn’t expect that the nine fox girls didn’t attack him, but cast a spell to trap him in some Burning Heaven Furnace to refine him.
With a cold snort, with the Dragon Slaying Sword in hand, Yang Yiyu was ready to violently break the Burning Heaven Furnace and get out.
