Chapter 969: Starlight Ancient Well
From Huaikongyin's perspective, this was not a demon at all, but the crazy Taoist priest who had not been seen for a long time!
The crazy Taoist transformed himself into a demon and seemed to be hiding very well, even hiding himself from the terrifying demon beside him. However, he could not hide from Zhang Qian's Bad Void Seal.

As Zhang Qian's cultivation level increased, the power of the Ruined Void Seal became more and more mysterious. Even though the Crazy Taoist had extremely high cultivation level, he could not hide from the Ruined Void Seal's detection.

"Crazy Taoist? Why is he here? Is he also here to look for the Sword Devouring Ancestor?"

Zhang Qian's thoughts turned, and he immediately thought that the Crazy Taoist had long been eyeing the Great Xia Li Ding in the hands of the Sword-Eating Ancestor. From the Crazy Taoist's perspective, the fact that the Sword-Eating Ancestor disappeared without a trace under Tian Jianzi's brilliant sword strike, but did not leave anything behind, would definitely make him suspicious.

"What a coincidence! This way I don't have to do anything!"

Seeing that the Crazy Taoist had arrived here before him and had even sneaked into the Heavenly Demon Palace, acting like a demon loyal to the Sword-Devouring Ancestor and gaining the trust of other demons, Zhang Qian immediately gave up the idea of ​​attacking him, hid his body in secret, and followed the Crazy Taoist.

The crazy Taoist never thought that there was a Zhang Qian following behind him. At this moment, all his attention was focused on the demon beside him.

After the demon transformed into a human form, he had white hair and looked very old. He was obviously a peerless demon who had practiced for countless years. His cultivation was almost as low as that of a Half-Step Daluo Daoist. He was not an easy person to deal with. Zhang Qian thought to himself that even if it was him, he would not be able to take down this demon without alerting anyone.

The crazy Taoist followed the demon crying and came to a hall behind the square. From the outside, the hall was no different from the nearby palaces. It was equally magnificent. Apart from the patrolling ancient royal soldiers, the defenses were no more strict than other places.

Soon the old demon brought the crazy Taoist priest into the hall. When he pushed open the door, Zhang Qian looked secretly and saw that the hall was dark and nothing could be seen clearly. There was no power or breath coming out, as if it was an empty hall.

"follow me!"

The old demon whispered something and walked into the hall with the crazy Taoist priest. Zhang Qian used his magical power to transform himself into the size of a mosquito and used his magical power to hide his breath. He flew in silently before the door of the hall was closed.

Bang!

As soon as he flew in, the door of the hall slammed shut. At the same time, a ray of starlight suddenly flashed in the dark interior of the hall. At first, there was only a single ray of starlight, but the next moment, countless strands of starlight burst out, filling the entire hall, making the originally dark hall extremely bright.

Zhang Qian's sight was flashed by the bright starlight, and then it returned to clarity. He took a look and saw that a well had appeared in the center of the spacious hall at some point, a well that was gushing out endless starlight!

The crazy Taoist was also startled by the sudden appearance of the well, and then asked calmly: "Ancestor, where is this?"

The old demon's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he shouted, "Tell me! Who are you and what is your purpose in sneaking into my Heavenly Demon Palace?"

As soon as these words came out, the crazy Taoist moved, as if he was about to attack, but he finally held back and replied in a puzzled tone: "Ancestor, I was personally accepted by the Palace Master. He saved my life. Why do you doubt me like this!"

"Well, okay, then you should make a great oath now!"

As soon as the words "Dao Shi" came out, the crazy Taoist couldn't help himself. How could such a vow be made casually? Once the Dao Shi is made, it cannot be violated, unless one has the strength to transcend the Dao. However, it is extremely difficult to transcend the worlds, let alone transcend the Dao!

"Why? Are you hesitating?"

The tone of the old demon became stern. Zhang Qian, who was hiding nearby, was ready to take action, but the crazy Taoist suddenly burst into tears. The sound of crying was so sad that it made the listeners cry. The old demon was about to scold him, but a distant Taoist voice suddenly rumbled from the well with bright stars: "Let him come over!" "Palace Master..."

"It's okay. I have an impression of this person. There's no need to doubt anything. Is he the only one?"

"Palace Master, this is a serious matter. I dare not let more people know. I can only select them secretly one by one."

The distant voice waited for a while before saying, "There's no need to be so cautious. Given the current situation outside, no one is willing to intervene. This is a good opportunity. You need to be quick. If you miss this opportunity and alert those powerful people, all your efforts will be wasted."

"Yes!"

The old demon responded respectfully, then looked at the mad Taoist priest and said in a cold voice, "You were heartbroken over the Palace Master's death before, but it seems that you are also a loyal person. Since the Palace Master has ordered you to do so, then you should go down. Now is the time for you to help the Palace Master!"

After saying this, the old demon gestured with his eyes to the well of starlight in front of him.

The Crazy Taoist and Zhang Qian were both extremely excited at this time, because they both recognized that the distant Taoist voice coming from the well was clearly that of the Sword-Devouring Ancestor!

"What is the Sword Devourer doing? Is he hiding in this strange well to heal his wounds?"

"It turns out that the Palace Master is not dead! I knew that with someone as powerful as the Palace Master, no one in the world could do anything to him!"

The Crazy Taoist showed an extremely excited look at the right moment. Now he didn't dare to show his true colors, otherwise he would be discovered by the Sword-Eating Ancestor in the well. The Sword-Eating Ancestor might disappear directly, and it would be difficult to find him then.

For the sake of the Da Xia Li Ding, the Crazy Taoist really tried his best. He had reincarnated nine times and became a powerful man who lived from ancient times to the present. He could swallow his pride, cry loudly, and make such a disgusting look, all for the Da Xia Li Ding.

"That's good, go down quickly!"

The demon urged, and the crazy Taoist jumped into the well!
Until the crazy Taoist disappeared, the old demon sneered, turned around and left the hall.

After the temple door was closed again, Zhang Qian waited for a while before landing next to the Well of Starlight. He released his magical powers, both large and small, and looked into the well.

After a while, he found that his eyes could not penetrate the starlight gushing out of the ancient well, and he could not see any scenes inside. At the same time, the crazy Taoist who jumped down did not make any movement.

After squinting his eyes and thinking for a while, Zhang Qian jumped down decisively.

Swish!
There was no resistance to the gushing starlight. Zhang Qian's figure fell rapidly, and faster and faster. The further he fell, the denser the starlight became. In the end, all the starlight condensed into one stream, and even showed signs of liquefaction.

If the starlight really liquefied into water, it would be the extremely poisonous Starlight Divine Water. Even now, Zhang Qian didn't dare to let it touch him. Fortunately, the starlight was not yet that dense.
