Enigma Palace, Heavenly Secrets Dao residence.
Two figures flashed and Heavenly Secrets returned to his Dao residence with Immortal Sword.
Immortal Sword's face was pale as he panted slightly. His eyes were filled with endless hatred as he grit his teeth. "Araki Takeshi! I'm absolutely irreconcilable with you! "
Although he was saved by Heavenly Secrets this time round, his Essence Spirit was injured!
It was extremely difficult to recover from injuries to the Essence Spirit.
Even with Sword Sect's foundation, they did not have an elixir similar to the Nine Revolutions Soul Return Elixir.
Initially, they were determined to kill Shura. To think that a single Dao Lord Araki Takeshi would disrupt their plans!
Heavenly Secrets said indifferently, "Actually, you don't have to be too angry. At the very least, Shura is crippled and your goal has been achieved."
"That's right. That bastard Qin Pianran is dead as well!"
Immortal Sword nodded.
After a brief pause, Immortal Sword turned and asked, "Brother Heavenly Secrets, do you have the Nine Revolutions Soul Return Elixir? If you do, I can get you any treasure you want! "
"I'm sorry,"
Heavenly Secrets smiled apologetically.
Immortal Sword's gaze dimmed and his expression darkened once more.
A hint of mockery flashed through the depths of Heavenly Secrets's eyes.
Notwithstanding the fact that he did not have the Nine Revolutions Soul Return Elixir on him, even if he did, he would definitely not hand it over to Immortal Sword!
At most, he and Immortal Sword were merely making use of each other.
Furthermore, Immortal Sword was a petty and ungrateful person. Even if Heavenly Secrets gave him the Nine Revolutions Soul Return Elixir, he would not remember the favor!
So what if it was Qin Pianran?
He was still killed mercilessly!
Dao Lord Cloud Rain had known him for so many years but he was schemed against and died as well.
A moment later, Immortal Sword asked in a seemingly casual manner, "By the way, why did you arrive so coincidentally, Brother Heavenly Secrets?"
"Initially, there was nothing wrong with your trip according to my divination. That was the reason why I did not follow you,"
Heavenly Secrets said, "However, not long after, I divined again and realized that the trajectory of the matter had suddenly turned blurry."
"I realized that an unforeseen event might have occurred. Thus, I immediately set off."
Although Heavenly Secrets's expression was warm and he explained patiently, he sneered internally.
He could tell that Immortal Sword already had some resentment towards him!
Immortal Sword continued, "Brother Heavenly Secrets, Araki Takeshi is already exhausted. His combat strength has decreased sharply after releasing Essence Spirit secret skills consecutively! Why didn't you take advantage of such a rare opportunity to kill him? "
"I can't kill him."
Tianji was not the least bit impatient. He shook his head and said, "With my skills, I can indeed defeat Araki Takeshi easily. However, it's impossible to kill him. "
"Araki Takeshi knows many kinds of escape techniques. If he sees that the situation is not right, he can use this escape technique and escape far away. I won't be able to catch up."
"In addition, Araki Takeshi has already detected my presence. His senses are too sharp!"
Bang!
Immortal Sword slammed his fist on the stone table beside him to vent the anger in his heart. Gritting his teeth, he said, "If I miss this opportunity, it'll be difficult for me to kill Araki Takeshi again!"
"Araki Takeshi has cultivated three Heaven and Earth Dharma Characteristics and each of them is 87 feet tall. However, he's only at the mid-stage Dharma Characteristic realm."
"If he advances to the Conjoint Body realm, only Mahayana Patriarchs will be able to suppress him!"
At the Conjoint Body realm, one had to fuse their Heaven and Earth Dharma Characteristics into their bodies.
If Araki Takeshi were to advance to the Conjoint Body realm and cultivate three Heaven and Earth Dharma Characteristics, how strong would his combat strength be after fusing them into his body?
Heavenly Secrets was neither anxious nor frustrated when he heard Immortal Sword's complaints. He said indifferently, "There might be a chance."
"Oh?"
Immortal Sword raised his brow and asked instead, "What do you mean?"
Heavenly Secrets said, "There's still a hundred years before the fight for the Dharma Characteristic Ranking."
"You mean …"
Immortal Sword pondered for a moment before shaking his head. "What kind of chance is that? Given Araki Takeshi's current combat strength, it's enough for him to become the number one of the Dharma Characteristic Ranking!"
"Furthermore, Araki Takeshi has a Mahayana Patriarch backing him. With such a huge commotion during the fight for the Dharma Characteristic Ranking, there's no guarantee that the Patriarch won't appear. At that time, who would dare to touch him?"
Heavenly Secrets smiled indifferently. "According to my calculations, that person in Dragon Burial Valley won't live for more than a hundred years!"
Immortal Sword shook his head. "Even so, the four unorthodox groups, Snowdrift Valley, Dapamkara Monastery and some other super sects are on good terms with him. It's impossible for them to kill Araki Takeshi in front of everyone."
Prior to this, those super sects could still claim that Araki Takeshi was a fiend demon and kill Araki Takeshi in the name of slaying demons.
But now, that reason had turned into a joke.
Immortal Sword continued, "Furthermore, given Araki Takeshi's capabilities, even Conjoint Body Mighty Figures won't be able to stop him if he wants to escape."
"Hold on, there'll definitely be a chance."
Heavenly Secrets narrowed his eyes and said meaningfully.
Right then, Heavenly Secrets's expression changed as though he sensed something. Waving his sleeves, the doors of the Dao residence opened and a messenger spirit crane flew in.
This messaging spirit crane looked extremely strange. Its eyes were dark green and emitted a gloomy aura.
"One of the nine races, the Witch race?"
Immortal Sword frowned slightly.
Only the Witch race possessed a spirit crane as such!
Tianji instructed the Spirit Crane before releasing it back into the Spirit Crane.
Before long, a few cultivators arrived at the entrance of the Heavenly Secrets Dao residence. Draped in green robes and wide hoods, they walked in.
"So, it's Elder Wu Xie. Please forgive me for not going out to welcome you."
Heavenly Secrets cupped his fists and said with a smile.
"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Heavenly Secrets,"
The leader of the green-robed cultivators said slowly and took off the hood on his head, revealing a skinny old face with sparse hair and ghastly green eyes.
"This is Immortal Sword, a titular disciple of Sword Sect who is now at the Conjoint Body realm. This is Elder Wu Xie of the Witch race."
Heavenly Secrets introduced both parties briefly.
"I've long heard of your name."
Wu Xie smiled gently and his eyes flickered. Suddenly, he said, "Fellow Daoist Immortal Sword's Essence Spirit seems to be injured."
"Elder, you have sharp eyes."
Immortal Sword's expression darkened as he said hatefully, "To be honest, elder, my Essence Spirit was injured by an enemy!"
If he were to tell the truth, he could not afford to lose to a Dharma Daojun's Essence Spirit.
"Elder Wu Xie, why are you here?"
Heavenly Secrets did not exchange pleasantries with Wu Xie and asked straightforwardly.
"I would like to ask you to help me find someone."
Wu Xie said in a deep voice.
"There are many secret skills of the Witch race and many methods to deduce people. Why are you looking for me?" Heavenly Secrets chuckled and did not comment.
"I did use the secret skills of the Witch race but I couldn't find him."
Wu Xie shook his head.
"Oh?"
Heavenly Secrets narrowed his eyes and asked, "What's the background of someone that even the secret skills of the Witch race can't find?"
"To be precise, he's not alone."
Wu Xie flipped his palm and a black scale was placed on it.
"What's this?"
Immortal Sword frowned slightly.
The black scale emitted an extremely frightening aura that resembled demonic qi but was slightly different.
Fiend demon?
What fiend demon was worthy of the Witch race mobilizing so many people to look for Enigma Palace?!
Heavenly Secrets swept his gaze and received the scale with a grim expression. After staring at it for a moment, his expression changed starkly as he exclaimed, "A primordial taboo!"
