Chapter 477 Strange Movement
Beneath the Academy of Saints lies the site where the ancient saints used to seal the demonic sect.
This place is a secret, even on the Island of Saints. Not even the students on the Island of Saints know about it; only these few elderly people at the Celestial Realm know it.
If it weren't for the intense disturbances that occurred within the Demonic Sect, exceeding the capabilities of their Saints Island, they would never have allowed outsiders to know of this place's existence.
Lin Fei followed several old men to the underground and saw the location of the demonic gate that had been sealed by the ancient saints.
When Lin Fei saw the Demonic Sect, he felt an unusual sense of familiarity, as if he had seen it somewhere before. However, after racking his brains, he couldn't remember where he had seen the Demonic Sect before.
Lin Fei shook his head, trying to shake off the strange sense of familiarity, and began to carefully observe the Demonic Sect in front of him.
The demonic gate emitted a faint, eerie light, as if something was hidden within, radiating an extremely suppressed energy. However, this energy was blocked by an extremely powerful seal, preventing it from dissipating. As soon as it left the demonic gate's area, it was immediately blocked back in.
Such a powerful seal was something even Lin Fei had never seen before in his life, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Is this the seal that the ancient sages placed on the Demonic Sect? It's simply breathtaking!"
Lin Fei had personally witnessed the ancient sages, and in his view, while they were powerful, they were definitely not this powerful. In fact, since Lin Fei advanced to the Celestial Realm, he believed he could easily defeat most of the ancient sages. Even top figures like the Confucian Sage were no match for him.
But now it seems that the ancient sages were able to cast such a chilling seal, even Lin Fei felt a chill in his heart. It appears he had underestimated them. Judging from the energy emanating from that seal, even if Lin Fei himself were sealed inside, he probably wouldn't be able to break free from this terrifying seal.
“No, this is not a seal placed by the ancient sages.” Zhao Wuji shook his head and said, “When the sages discovered this demonic gate, other powerful beings had already placed this seal on it. However, the seal was already showing signs of breaking, and a lot of energy was overflowing from the demonic gate, forming those monsters that had never been seen before. Therefore, the sages placed another layer of seal on top of this one.”
As they spoke, several old men waved their hands at the same time, and beams of light suddenly shot down from above their heads, illuminating the dark underground.
Those pillars of light connected to the ground and eventually converged on the Demon Gate, reflecting the terrifying seal on the Demon Gate and forming a subtle cycle.
These pillars of light are the seals that the ancient saints placed upon the Demonic Sect with their own lives. Their purpose was to strengthen the existing seals on the Demonic Sect. As for the ancient saints themselves, they did not possess the ability to seal the Demonic Sect.
Those beams of light were connected to the statues of saints that Lin Fei had seen on the ground before.
……
The demonic gate had just experienced an anomaly, and it hadn't completely subsided yet. The energy within the demonic gate was like boiling water, constantly assaulting the outer seal. The seal itself shook violently; if it weren't for the ancient sages adding another seal from the outside, the original seal on the demonic gate would likely have already been broken.
"Your Majesty, as you have surely seen, the current situation is far from optimistic." Zhao Wuji said as he walked toward the demonic gate that was slowly calming down: "If the power within this demonic gate is allowed to break through the seal, I'm afraid it won't just be these overseas islands, but the entire land of China will be plunged into catastrophe."
As he spoke, in order to prove to Lin Fei that this was not an exaggeration, Zhao Wuji slowly stretched out his hand and reached towards the demonic gate.
"Brother Wuji, wait a minute..." The other elders were startled by Zhao Wuji's actions and quickly tried to stop him.
Before they could finish speaking, Zhao Wuji interrupted them, saying, "It's alright. This is also to let His Majesty see the harm caused by the Demonic Sect with his own eyes."
As he spoke, Zhao Wuji's hand had already broken through the seal and blockade outside the Demonic Gate and reached all around it.
The seal placed outside the demonic gate seemed to only prevent the power inside from escaping, but it did not stop things from entering from the outside.
As Zhao Wuji reached the edge of the Demon Gate, the power within it, like a cat smelling blood, spread towards his hand.
Zhao Wuji groaned, and his hand was quickly corroded by the power of the demonic sect. His skin cracked open, and blood oozed from his palm.
Lin Fei was somewhat surprised by the power of the Demonic Sect—after all, the Celestial Realm was a realm where one had already achieved a golden body, far beyond the reach of ordinary mortals.
Those at the Celestial Realm possess physical bodies that are impervious to blades and spears, and immune to water and fire. Even divine weapons and magical artifacts would likely be unable to cause them the slightest damage.
However, with just one contact, Zhao Wuji's hand was already corroded by the power within the Demonic Sect, proving that the power of the Demonic Sect was indeed terrifying.
As a powerful expert at the Celestial Realm, Zhao Wuji possessed not only an exceptionally strong physical body but also a powerful protective spiritual force. Just as the demonic power damaged Zhao Wuji's hand, the vast spiritual energy within his body surged towards his palm, attempting to prevent the demonic power from harming his body.
What happened next made Lin Fei's palms sweat – Zhao Wuji's spiritual power surged into his palm. It goes without saying how vast the spiritual power of a Celestial Realm expert is, but Zhao Wuji's vast spiritual power was completely dissolved by the power of the Demonic Sect in just a moment.
Just like snow being exposed to sunlight, it has no resistance and melts away instantly.
The terrifying spiritual power of a Celestial Realm expert was utterly powerless against the power of the Demonic Sect, much like a child before a burly adult!
Such a scene made Lin Fei frown slightly – the power of this demonic sect not only causes great damage to the physical body of cultivators, but also seems to be able to naturally suppress the spiritual power within the cultivator's body. If it were to spread to the land of China, it would probably truly be an apocalyptic catastrophe.
No wonder the ancient sages sacrificed their lives to seal this damned demonic sect—this thing could cause harm to the world no less than the demon race of yesteryear.
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Wuji's hand had been completely corroded into a pile of bones by the power of the Demonic Sect.
