Chapter 487 The Breaking of the Seal of the Void Beast?

Huang Wuji sat in the hall for a while longer, chatting with the leaders for a while, before gesturing for Lin Fan to come outside.

When Lin Fan saw that Huang Wuji's expression was a little strange when he went out, he thought that Gu Yun's matter was still making things difficult for him, so he asked.

"what happened?"

"Is it because of the Undead Demon King?"

The Undead Demon King that Lin Fan mentioned was the most powerful being in the Demon Realm who achieved his Demon King status through the laws of death.

The pressure Huang Xian Yue mentioned actually mostly came from him.

However, the Demon Realm where the Undead Demon King resides is far from the Supreme Emperor Demon Realm, so it is not so easy for the Demon King to set off for it.

"Do not."

Huang Wuji looked into the distance with some worry and said frankly.

"It's not because of that. Even if the corpses came, they wouldn't dare to make a move in the Extreme Emperor Demon Realm."

"He probably doesn't know about the Unrepentant Sleep yet."

"What I'm worried about is the illusory beast beneath the Prison Guard."

Lin Fan looked in the direction Huang Wuji was gazing, somewhat confused. It was the direction of the Zhenyu Division, which was under his jurisdiction.

"A virtual beast?"

"Wasn't that octopus frozen and suppressed forever by Lord Wu Hui?"

Huang Wuji gave a bitter laugh, his eyes filled with melancholy.

"The word 'forever' carries too much weight."

"Even if Wu Hui's ability to become a Demon King is due to the resonance between the world's rules and the dominant ice element, even a Demon King will eventually run out of energy. So how can his ice seal be said to be permanent?"

"Since Wu Hui fell into slumber, the countdown to the freezing began."

Lin Fan frowned, immediately sensing that something was wrong.

As if knowing what Lin Fan was thinking, Huang Wuji continued confidently.

"Your feeling is right, it's too short. Even if he falls into a deep sleep, his power can be maintained for a thousand years without any problem. We can awaken him and strengthen him then."

"But now, it can't even be said to be three hundred years."

Lin Fan couldn't understand why the freezing time was shortened. He had been fortunate enough to witness Wu Hui's strength, and he didn't believe that such a powerful force, which could freeze space and even affect time, would have a problem with this power.

If it's not a problem with the freezing, then it can only be a problem with the octopus itself.

"Besides the power to distort the rules of reality and illusion, does that phantom beast possess other abilities?"

Huang Wuji thought so too, and said.

"That's the only way. Void beasts can gain some of the power of distorted rules by devouring the world, but don't forget that those void creatures that roam the borders themselves have abilities similar to our racial talents."

The ability to devour the world and possess the power to distort rules is the fundamental difference between Void Beasts and Void Creatures.

"Although we know the source of the twisted power of this virtual beast, we are not clear about its own talents."

"That's why I called you over here alone to ask about the current situation, so as to avoid causing unnecessary panic."

"Without the ability to freeze without regret... if it breaks free, I'm afraid our entire Imperial Palace will be unable to inflict any real damage on it."

Lin Fan pondered for a while, then shook his head with a hint of regret, having no clue what Huang Wuji was hoping for.

"Everything is normal in the prison, there is nothing unusual."

"The rules of illusion and reality... are indeed difficult to deal with."

"How did you know the seal had loosened?"

Huang Wuji hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice.

"Before Wu Hui fell into slumber, he left a bead under the Town Prison Division, which can show the degree of solidification of the seal he left. I check it every hundred years. The first two times were fine, the combined consumption was only one-fifth, which was normal. This time... it dropped by half."

Lin Fan's eyelids twitched suddenly. This was not good news for him, since the Prison Suppression Division was located in the Frozen Land.

Now I can't even sleep peacefully.

Huang Wuji sighed.

"You should pay more attention lately; we need to find out the cause in order to solve the problem at its root."

"I will prepare to awaken Wu Hui once during this period. I have no choice. Although I really don't want to awaken Wu Hui at this time, only his ability can just restrain that octopus."

Lin Fan nodded solemnly.

"I will."

Suddenly, Lin Fan seemed to have thought of something, but he wasn't sure if it could be considered a breakthrough.

"By the way, if we look at it over a longer period, there is one phenomenon I can mention to you, but I feel it may not be relevant."

"what?"

"In the last hundred years, serious offenders seem to have become much more well-behaved than before."

"You mean some creatures among the hardened criminals are helping this octopus?"

"I don't know. After all, the Void Beasts and we are fundamentally opposed. Doing this would not benefit them at all. Moreover, the design of the Prison Suppression Division was that if this octopus were to break free one day, these serious criminals would serve as the first line of defense. However, it is impossible to completely rule them out."

"I understand. I will visit the prison in a while."

"it is good."

...

Inside the trial space.

Gu Yun wandered back and forth between the five mountain ranges like a ghost. However, this ghost was not unpredictable. The light of the first-class spiritual treasure made Gu Yun particularly conspicuous.

At first, when Gu Yun approached, the demons participating in the competition instinctively moved away to prevent Gu Yun from attacking them instantly.

But over time, faced with Gu Yun's indifference, these demons gradually got used to his wanderings. Perhaps he was just passing the time, since finding a demon or an object in a confined space was not difficult.

About an hour had passed.

at last.

Huang Tian deserves a caring person.

Gu Yun regained that familiar aura.

"We've finally caught you."

Locking onto the suddenly appearing aura, Gu Yun discovered that it originated from the mountainside of a mountain range not far from him.

It is the mountain range to which Huang Xiaoyu belongs.

Gu Yun narrowed his eyes, and along with the lush green forest, a relatively bright beam of light also entered his pupils.

really.

Her goal is still a second-class special spiritual treasure.

only…

Gu Yun hesitated before setting off.

He couldn't understand why this woman would try to steal a special spiritual treasure from the royal territory, especially one that was only of the second grade.

It can't be because the holders of second-class special spiritual treasures on the royal territory are relatively weak.

While this behavior might not be considered a direct slap in the face to the Extreme Emperor Demon Clan, it was undoubtedly a slap in the face to Huang Xiaoyu.

The demons on the royal territory are a level weaker, but if you dare to make a move, Huang Xiaoyu will definitely step in to protect you.

Gu Yun couldn't figure out any other reason besides this one.

Banishing his distracting thoughts, Gu Yun slowly approached.

not far away.

The silver-haired woman looked at the small pagoda in her left hand with delight, her pupils sparkling. Then she gripped the pagoda tightly, raised her left arm, and wiped the pale blue bloodstains from the corner of her mouth.

Simultaneously.

The silver-haired woman pulled out her right hand, which had pierced through the chest of a fat, big-eared demon.

Along with some fragments of organs and blood, some splattered out.

To avoid getting her clothes dirty, the silver-haired woman stomped her leg away with a look of disgust.

Despite its seemingly pale and slender calves, its explosive power was anything but weak. The fat devil's belly immediately shrank, and then it rolled away, muttering incoherently.

"Do you...know what you're doing?"

You'll regret this…
