Peerless Taoist

Lu Yu once again charged into the village's ancestral hall.    

At this moment, the corpses had piled up like a mountain. The human heads and bones had actually been piled up into a small mountain. No one knew how many people had died inside.    

The towering resentment spread in all directions. After the death of countless living beings in this place, their souls wouldn't disperse for a long time.    

"Looks like the ancient demon has robbed this village and killed everyone here. No wonder I can't sense the aura of humans."    

Such a method was simply insane and inhumane.    

If it was in the past, doing such a shocking thing would draw the attention of the Heavenly Court, and cause the Heavenly Punishment to descend. Then, they would be killed by the rolling heavenly thunder.    

However, judging from the current era, without the Heavenly Court, these ancient demons were getting more and more arrogant.    

Lu Yu once again cast the Qi Gazing Technique to observe the surrounding devil Qi. Finally, he found the gathering point of the devil Qi.    

The devil Qi in all directions was coming from the underground of the ancestral hall.    

"What exactly is hidden inside?"    

Without hesitation, Lu Yu opened his mouth and opened the ground, opening up a huge hole.    

Under the hole was actually a deep pit of ten thousand bones.    

It was unknown how many people had died inside. The bones were piled up, layer by layer. Some of the bones had been there for a certain period of time, and seemed to be extremely broken.    

On top of these bones, there was actually a pitch-black statue!    

The statue was actually in the shape of a python. Although it was a snake, it had nine heads. The enormous snake's head opened its mouth, making a terrifying roar.    

Although the statue was black, its surface seemed to be covered with a thick layer of blood. The blood flowed down along the statue, giving off a pungent smell.    

"Xiangliu Demon Ancestor!"    

Lu Yu's heart sank.    

When Lu Yu saw this statue, he felt a little dizzy, as if this statue was hiding an endless evil.    

No matter who it was, even if it was a virtuous scholar, if he got close to this statue, he would be contaminated by endless evil thoughts and eventually become a villain who did all kinds of evil things.    

This place was the altar. The ancient demon sacrificed the living people they captured to provide the power of faith for Xiangliu Demon Ancestor.    

"Hiss -"    

Vaguely, Lu Yu seemed to have heard the hissing of a python.    

This was an illusion. Although the statue could not attack, it used some illusions to affect everyone who saw the statue.    

"You want to affect me? Then your plan is wrong!"    

Lu Yu's eyes lit up. He threw out a punch, instantly blowing up the altar.    

The stone statue turned into a pile of crushed stones. A mass of devilish energy flew out from the statue and was swallowed by the Taiji diagram. It didn't fall down at all.    

There were some formations carved on the base of the statue. Lu Yu looked at it for a moment and knew what kind of formation it was.    

"Gather all of the spiritual Qi in all directions here. This must have been prepared specifically for the arrival of a Sacred Ancient. No wonder the desert outside is so barren, with almost all of the spiritual energy here. The spiritual energy here has all been extracted and poured into the oasis. "    

Lu Yu murmured.    

This was a method to fish with all his might.    

When the environment outside could no longer be any worse, the oasis would soon wither and turn into a desert.    

The ancient demon had no intention of managing this place well. All the Demonic Beast were just their chess pieces.    

At this moment, Lu Yu suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside the village.    

"Strange. I heard the sounds of fighting here just now. Why did it suddenly disappear?"    

"Oh heavens, there are so many demon cores. Hahahaha, we have wasted so many demon cores. We are rich!"    

Outside the village, there was a burst of cheers.
