Hu Yue'er thanked Ye Feng a lot, and his respect for Ye Feng deepened. She did not dare to neglect, and quickly led the way, leading Ye Feng and Xiao Wuhen in the direction of the Ancient Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.
The Golden Lion City is only a thousand miles away from the border of the Ancient Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons. For monks of their level, it is only half a day's journey.
Through the conversation with Hu Yue'er along the way, Ye Feng gained a deeper understanding of the current situation of the Ancient Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.
Today’s Ancient Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons is far less peaceful than it appears. The old Demon King has been in seclusion for many years, not knowing whether he is alive or dead. The three royal families are fighting openly and secretly, all trying to become the new master. The Qingqiu Fox Clan is the weakest among the three royal families and is in the most embarrassing situation. The conspiracy that Hu Yueer and his brother encountered this time were probably related to the power struggle within the clan.
"So, your life is not easy." After hearing this, Ye Feng looked thoughtful.
"Senior made me laugh." Hu Yue'er said with a bitter smile, "If not, we would not have risked coming to the human realm to ask for medicine."
"Then do you know that your demon clan has any particularly important inherited treasures, such as... an ancient-looking stone with strange patterns carved on it?" Ye Fengzhi asked casually.
Hu Yue'er and Hu Shan looked at each other and shook their heads.
"This... we are of low status and have never heard of it." Hu Yue'er apologized a little, "However, if there is such a treasure, perhaps only the core members of the royal family or the old demon emperor himself know about it."
"Royal family..." Ye Feng muttered to himself. It seemed that things were more troublesome than expected.
While he was talking, there was a slight vibration in the ground in front of him, and the aura in the air became violent. A wild and majestic demonic aura rushed towards his face.
At the end of the line of sight, a huge light curtain appeared across the sky and the earth. Behind the light curtain, there were majestic mountains and rivers, towering ancient trees, and countless huge beast shadows could be vaguely seen walking through it. The roaring sounds came one after another, which was shocking.
"Senior, ahead is the barrier of the Ancient Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters." Hu Yue'er pointed at the light curtain with a complicated expression, "Passing through this 'Ten Thousand Demons Barrier' will officially enter the territory of the Monster Clan."
Ye Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at the barrier. This barrier contains extremely powerful power, and is vaguely connected to the laws of heaven in this world. It would probably take a lot of effort for ordinary monks in the Tribulation Stage to break in forcefully.
"Let's go." Ye Feng didn't care and walked towards the barrier.
Just when they were about to step into the barrier, three black shadows emerged from the void and surrounded Ye Feng and the others in a glyph shape.
These three black shadows are all shrouded in wide black robes, with a white mask without any facial features on their faces, and their whole body exudes a dead atmosphere.
Xiao Wuhen's pupils suddenly shrank, and the folding fan in his hand unfolded with a "swish", the mountain and river scroll loomed, and a fierce momentum rose into the sky.
"Curtain Keeper!"
As soon as the words "Curtain Keeper" came out, Hu Yue'er and Hu Shan's faces instantly turned pale, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.
For the creatures of the Ancient Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters, the name "Curtain Keeper" represents taboo and death. They are the minions of Heaven and the guards who maintain the "cage" of the world. Any existence that attempts to pry into the truth of the world and challenge the authority of Heaven will be ruthlessly obliterated by them.
According to rumors, every curtain keeper has the terrifying strength to survive the tribulation period, and they act secretly and cruelly, never leaving anyone alive.
I didn’t expect that they would appear here!
"The response is very fast." The leader of the curtain guard spoke, his voice without any emotion, "The Xiao family boy, there is... a variable. God has decreed that you should not come here."
His eyes finally fell on Ye Feng.
The empty white mask clearly has no facial features, but it gives people the feeling of being stared at by a poisonous snake.
"Variable?" Ye Feng smiled. He looked at the three men in black robes with great interest, "Your dressing style is a bit bad. Isn't it hot to pretend to be a ghost in broad daylight?"
Xiao Wuhen twitched the corner of his mouth. Even at this time, this guy was still in the mood to joke. He held the mountain and river fan tightly, and the spiritual power in his body had been activated to the extreme. He said in a deep voice: "Ye Feng, be careful, these guys are very weird. Their power... does not belong to any system we are familiar with."
"Oh? Just as it happens, my power is also very weird." Ye Feng shrugged, still looking calm and calm.
The leader of the curtain keeper did not seem to be affected by Ye Feng's words. He just slowly raised a hand. The hand was as dry as chicken feet and the nails were as black as ink.
"Now that you are here, let's turn into the dust of this world."
The moment the words fell, the three curtain keepers moved at the same time.
They pointed towards Ye Feng and the others.
Three jet-black finger lights penetrated the void and appeared in front of Ye Feng and the others in an instant.
The finger light was wrapped with a gray power of law, and wherever it passed, the space made an overwhelming clicking sound.
This is the power given to them by the demonized heaven, a "Law of Annihilation" specially used to obliterate living beings.
"Mountains and rivers are shields!" Xiao Wuhen shouted, and the mountain and river fan suddenly swung out.
A landscape painting unfolded out of thin air, with majestic mountains and rushing rivers turning into physical barriers, blocking the front.
However, those three black finger lights regarded the mountains and rivers as nothing. They directly penetrated the scroll. The moment the majestic power of the mountains and rivers came into contact with the fingerlight, it was like ice and snow meeting a soldering iron, quickly melting and disintegrating.
Xiao Wuhen snorted and turned pale, obviously suffering from backlash. His high-grade Taoist weapon couldn't block the opponent's blow!
"Be careful!" he reminded hurriedly.
Hu Yue'er and Hu Shan were already scared out of their wits. In a confrontation of this level, they couldn't even bear the aftermath.
At this time, Ye Feng moved.
He also stretched out his right index finger and tapped it lightly against the three menacing black finger lights.
His fingertips lit up a little.
The light is very light and soft, like the most distant star in the night sky, but it also contains the original aura of the creation of the world and the beginning of all things.
The origin of star power!
This starlight suddenly collided with the three fingers of death.
Those three fingers of annihilation, which were enough to make even the monks in the Tribulation Stage change their expressions, disappeared out of thin air the moment they touched the starlight.
Xiao Wuhen’s eyes widened with disbelief on his face.
He is well aware of the strangeness and domineering power of the Curtain Keeper. It is a power that is above the laws of this world, but Ye Feng... is even more domineering!
Hu Yue'er and Hu Shan opened their mouths wide and their minds went blank.
The three curtain keepers also paused.
The leader said in surprise: "The laws above this world...you are indeed the biggest variable!"
"Only discovered now?" Ye Feng retracted his fingers and said with a smile , "Since you are the lackeys of Tiandao, you should know a lot of secrets, right? For example, is the other core of the ancient world-breaking formation in your hands?"
He said as he stepped forward.
Obviously they were just strolling around, but in the perception of the three curtain keepers, Ye Feng's figure was constantly enlarging, and every step stepped on their minds, bringing an unparalleled sense of oppression.
"Get him! No matter the cost!" The leader of the curtain keeper roared.
