Moments later, the crowd saw that the body of Jialuo Demon King was truly reduced to ashes by the blazing fire.

"Fantastic! Truly fantastic!"

The crowd erupted into cheers.

Suddenly, Duan Gujin felt that something wasn't right. Although he guessed that Jialuo Demon King's combat power wasn't high at the time, the Demon King's performance earlier was way too poor.

"Something's off!"

Duan Gujin hurriedly expanded his Divine Sense, glancing around and carefully probing the nearby energy fluctuations.

After a while, he discovered that the energy fluctuations nearby hadn't shown any significant changes.

"Everyone, get ready for battle! That just now probably wasn't the Jialuo Demon King!"

Duan Gujin said.

Only then did the others realize what was happening. They expanded their Divine Senses, their eyes widened, not daring to relax in the slightest.

Lie Lei soon sensed that the energy fluctuations in the nearby void remained the same as before, guessing that Jialuo Demon King probably hadn't died yet.

After a while, a giant crow as large as a grown man suddenly appeared in the sky.

The crow cackled weirdly and shouted at Duan Gujin and the others, "Do you think your tricks are enough to deal with me?"

"Stop blabbering up there! If you have the guts, come down and fight us directly. What's the point of your cool talk from up there? To think you were once the Jialuo Demon King, I see you're nothing but a coward!"

Duan Gujin shouted loudly.

"Right! Coward! Come down and fight us! If you're scared, then don't call yourself Jialuo Demon King!"

At that moment, Lie Lei and the others also started shouting loudly, trying to provoke Jialuo Demon King into showing himself sooner.

Although the previous battle had used up the kerosene Duan Gujin had prepared, Lie Lei and the others still had kerosene on them.

Green Cloud Sect, naturally, had prepared a large amount of kerosene to eliminate Jialuo Demon King.

Kerosene wasn't expensive on the Qiankun Continent, so they had prepared a lot of it.

"You despicable humans! You all deserve to die!"

The crow in the sky was fuming with rage, wishing it could tear Duan Gujin and the others to pieces.

"Come down! Come down and bite us!"

Everyone on the scene shouted loudly.

Hearing the arrogant shouts from the crowd below, the crow was fuming with rage, but it didn't act impulsively, continuing to fly in the air.

"I won't come down; I'll just infuriate you!" the crow retorted in such a manner.

Duan Gujin sneered inwardly, already knowing that Jialuo Demon King was likely hiding in some corner, recovering its strength.

"There's no time to delay; we can't waste time here with it!"

Duan Gujin quickly relayed this message to Lie Lei through voice transmission.

Lie Lei immediately agreed with Duan Gujin's suggestion and then relayed his words to the other elders.

They dispersed and began searching nearby for the whereabouts of Jialuo Demon King.

After a while, an elder shouted loudly.

"There's a situation here!"

Duan Gujin and the others rushed towards the spot indicated by that elder.

Soon, they saw a deep pit ahead, and within that pit lay a huge stone.

Duan Gujin promptly used his Evil Eye to inspect the boulder within the pit and immediately discovered that it was greedily devouring the nearby energy, emitting a powerful aura.

"Could it be that Jialuo Demon King is sealed inside this boulder?"

Duan Gujin quickly gathered the others around, and once they approached within ten meters of the boulder, he instructed them not to advance further.

"Let's cast spells together to seal this boulder!"

Duan Gujin immediately took out the Sealing Treasure he had forged earlier and began to cast Sealing Magic upon the boulder.

The Sealing Treasure in his hands resembled a tower with three levels, on which he had previously drawn Sealing Arrays specifically designed to seal demons.

Under his control, the Sealing Treasure slowly flew towards the boulder.

The others watched intently as Duan Gujin used the Sealing Treasure to attempt the sealing, holding various Treasures for sealing in their hands.

Should Duan Gujin's sealing attempt fail, they were ready to follow up.

As soon as the Sealing Treasure approached within one meter of the boulder, it suddenly exploded.

Seeing the Treasure explode, Duan Gujin quickly gasped, witnessing a black light burst forth from the boulder, instantly shattering his Sealing Treasure.

"So powerful!"

Duan Gujin furrowed his brows, his mind racing. He felt that the strength the boulder had just unleashed was too formidable.

Moments later, Duan Gujin sensed an intense Killing Aura emanating from the boulder.

Taking a deep breath, he signaled his fellow elders to act.

"Everyone strike, seal it!"

The elders immediately attacked the boulder, hurling all their various Sealing Treasures at it.

Boom, boom, boom!

The sound of explosions filled the air, as Lie Lei and the elders of the Green Cloud Sect cast their spells in an attempt to destroy the boulder.

Violent explosions echoed through the Void, causing strong spatial fluctuations.

After the explosions subsided, they looked back at the boulder, only to find it unmoved.

"My kidneys!"

Everyone present inhaled sharply, their minds racing and eyes darting around as they pondered what approach to take next against the boulder.

The experts of the Green Cloud Sect looked dismayed, having not expected that their carefully prepared Sealing Treasures would fail to seal the boulder.

"Everyone stay calm!"

Duan Gujin's mind whirled as he recalled legends of the Netherworld Dark Clan.

"It's no wonder the Netherworld Dark Clan managed to be so rampant on other continents!"

Duan Gujin realized just how terrifying the strength of the Netherworld Dark Clan before him was, his brows furrowing tighter.

"If Jialuo Demon King is so powerful, why did it lay hidden in the previous era? Could it have controlled a high-ranking member of the Netherworld Sect, gone into hiding, and then instructed that controlled individual to attack the Green Cloud Sect? Something so abnormal must have an explanation. But where exactly does the peculiarity lie?"

Duan Gujin knew that his previous actions might have altered the whole history, discovering that the future had been completely changed.

"Let's not dwell on that for now. I still need to find Jialuo Demon King's weakness! Logically, having been sealed below for such a long time, it should be extremely weak by now. It should not possess such terrifying power! Why is its performance so defying now? It's too illogical!"

Duan Gujin's eyes flickered as he sank into contemplation.

After a while, he sensed zombies appearing nearby, all of whom had been Netherworld Sect Disciples in life.

"Darn it! I didn't expect so many people from the Netherworld Sect to have died here, no wonder Jialuo Demon King has recovered so quickly!"
