"Why would the Celestial Bestowment World pardon Dark Wraith?"
Su Zimo asked.
"I'm not sure."
Lu Yun shook his head. "Those of the Celestial Bestowment World are extremely mysterious and difficult to meet. They don't explain their actions to others either."
After a pause, Lu Yun noticed that Su Zimo seemed rather interested in Dark Wraith. "I don't know much about Dark Wraith, but I've heard a few rumors."
Su Zimo nodded.
In any case, his greatest gain from this trip to the Celestial Bestowment World was most likely news of the Night Spirit.
Though he didn't know why the Celestial Bestowment World had pardoned Night Spirit, or where Night Spirit had gone, he was certain that the Night Spirit had grown at a rapid pace. In fact, he was almost as strong as Qinglian's true body!
All seven of them had ascended to the upper worlds, but he'd only received news of the Night Spirit. There was no news of the other six.
The upper worlds were simply too vast, and the three thousand worlds were boundless. Who knew how long it would take for the seven brothers to reunite?
"Brother Su, why don't you return to your residence and rest? There's no need to keep watch here," Lu Yun suggested.
"From the looks of it, Lin Xunzhen and the others shouldn't be in any danger. One or two people should be enough to keep an eye on them."
"Beings of all worlds and races gather on Celestial Bestowment Island. Apart from the Celestial Bestowment Pavilion, there are also some private markets that you can visit. Why don't I bring Brother Su around Heavenly Worship Island? "
"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Feng, but I'll take a walk on my own."
Su Zimo declined with a smile and left Heavens Venerate Sect with Beiming Xue. He looked around Heavens Venerate Island before returning to his residence to rest.
The next day passed in the blink of an eye.
Lu Yun and Yu Lan returned to their residence with relaxed expressions.
"Everything's fine over there. Lin Xunzhen and the others went quite smoothly. They earned two hundred merit points on the first day, and a hundred on the second." Lu Yun turned to Su Zimo.
The four peak lords, Lu Yun, Yu Lan, Feng Xu, and Bi Tianxing, split up. Two of them would keep watch, while the other two would return to rest and conserve their energy.
Lu Yun, Yu Lan, and Su Zimo chatted idly. "Actually, there's another benefit to renting a residence like this on Skyvenerate Island."
"Oh?"
Su Zimo revealed a questioning look.
Lu Yun explained, "Normally speaking, fighting and killing is not allowed in the Celestial Tribute World. But if one rents this house like us, it's equivalent to the private territory of the Sword World."
"In this house, if there are some fights, they will not be punished by the rules of the Heaven Realm."
Su Zimo pondered and said, "In that case, if beings from other realms come here, we have every reason to make them stay!"
"Exactly."
"That's why, under normal circumstances, don't trespass on the private territories of other realms after coming to the Celestial Tribute World."
Yu Lan continued, "There's another benefit to a private residence like this. Fighting and killing is forbidden in the Celestial Tribute World, but if someone is bent on killing the other party, it'll be hard to guard against them. "
"Oftentimes, life and death can be decided in the blink of an eye!"
Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat and he understood.
On the streets outside, if there was an Immortal King expert who suddenly attacked a True Spirit, that True Spirit would almost certainly die.
Although the immortal king would be killed by the rules of the Celestial Tribute World afterward, the sacred spirit would be dead beyond redemption.
Renting a residence like this could prevent that from happening.
If an outsider intruded, the Sword World could act on its own and eliminate the danger prematurely!
"No wonder a residence like this costs ten merit points a day. There's a reason for that."
Su Zimo nodded to himself.
In the next few days, Su Zimo would occasionally visit the Celestial Tribute Pavilion. Lin Xunzhen's group had a relatively smooth journey through the fiend battlefield.
Although they encountered some dangers during this period, they were able to avert them.
On the seventh day, Lin Xunzhen's group had already obtained a thousand merit points in the fiend battlefield!
This speed was three days faster than everyone's initial expectations!
Of course, Lin Xunzhen's group did not immediately return to the Celestial Tribute Pavilion. Instead, they continued to search for evil spirits in the fiend battlefield to obtain merit points.
They could only stay in the fiend battlefield for ten days. There were still three days left. This was a rare opportunity, and no one was willing to waste it.
Moreover, for Lin Xunzhen, Wang Dong, and the others, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to hone their Sword Dao!
If they only sparred in the Sword World, they would never be able to display the unique killing power of the Sword Dao.
Only through the baptism and tempering of blood could one forge a peerless Sword Dao!
In the blink of an eye, it was already the eighth day since Lin Xunzhen's group entered the fiend battlefield.
On this day, Su Zimo was resting with his eyes closed in his residence, comprehending Dao techniques. Suddenly, there was a burst of hurried footsteps outside the door.
Immediately after, the door of the residence was slammed open and a faint stench of blood wafted in.
Su Zimo's heart sank. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and arrived in the courtyard in a flash.
At the same time, Feng Xu and Bi Tianxing walked out of their rooms.
Lu Yun and Yu Lan rushed in with ashen expressions. Behind them, Wang Dong, Gongsun Yu and the other six were shocked and furious – it was clear that they had suffered varying degrees of injuries. Fortunately, their lives were not in danger.
However, Lin Xunzhen's situation was not looking good.
Lin Xunzhen lay in Yu Lan's embrace with his eyes closed. His lips were pale and his breathing was weak. Even his lifeforce was as thin as gossamer.
"What's going on?!"
Bi Tianxing was enraged and asked loudly.
Lu Yun's face was murderous as he grit his teeth. "The people of Sky's Eye World suddenly entered the fiend battlefield and went straight for Lin Xunzhen's group!"
Sky's Eye World!
Su Zimo's expression turned cold.
"Damn it, it's Sky's Eye World again!"
Bi Tianxing cursed.
Feng Xu's expression was ugly as well.
Although the Cold Eye Monarch had said some harsh words, the past few days had been peaceful. Everyone thought that this matter was over for the time being.
Who would've thought that Sky's Eye World would take revenge so quickly!
Feng Xu asked coldly, "Is it Xia Yin of Sky's Eye World?"
Xia Yin was ranked first on the Battle Merit Jade Stele!
"No." Lu Yun shook his head.
"If Xia Yin came, Lin Xunzhen's group would've been wiped out. It's the other Sky's Eye Clan member on the Battle Merit Jade Stele, Xiang Meng."
A string of information flashed through Su Zimo's mind.
Xiang Meng was ranked fifty-seventh on the Battle Merit Jade Stele.
Bi Tianxing frowned. "Does Lin Xunzhen's group have the Myriad Sword Formation and the Bestowment Medallion? How did this happen?"
In Bi Tianxing's opinion, even if the Myriad Sword Formation couldn't stop Xiang Meng's group, Lin Xunzhen's group could've used the medallion to leave the fiend battlefield.
Lu Yun clenched his fists at the mention of this and sighed heavily.
Yu Lan looked at Lin Xunzhen in her arms with grief and indignation.
Wang Dong, Gongsun Yu, and the others lowered their heads in shame.
Lu Yun spoke after a while. "Xiang Meng's combat art is the Spacetime Imprisonment. The Myriad Sword Formation can't operate under its influence and can't unleash any of its power."
