It had been a month since the paragon battle of the Great Qian Ruins.
The news had spread through almost the entire Tianhuang Mainland and everyone knew about it!
Middle Continent, Elixir Yang Sect.
A man and two women stood in a rather grand cave abode.
The man had decent features and a calm expression – he was the former disciple of Misty Peak, Ji Chengtian.
Of the two women, one of them wore white robes and was extremely beautiful. However, she exuded a faint coldness.
The other woman was extremely handsome and had a picturesque appearance. However, she was dressed as a man and looked like a suave young master.
The two women were Leng Rou who had joined Chigurumon and Tang Yu of Elixir Yang Sect.
The three of them faced each other in silence.
The atmosphere in the cave abode was a little tense.
"Hais."
A long time later, Ji Chengtian sighed gently and asked, "Has the news been confirmed? Did Junior Brother Su truly jump into the Dragon Burial Valley? "
"Yes,"
Tang Yu nodded. "Many people witnessed this personally. It can't be fake."
Leng Rou remained silent the entire time and her gaze turned colder.
Ji Chengtian shook his head and sighed emotionally. "This matter has blown up."
Tang Yu pursed her lips with a conflicted expression as she looked into the distance and murmured, "So, you're the monster incarnate of Divine Phoenix Island. No wonder …"
Back in the ancient battlefield, Tang Yu had a moment of doubt when news of the monster incarnate of Divine Phoenix Island spread.
After all, there were some similarities between Su Zimo and the monster incarnate of Divine Phoenix Island.
However, she denied it secretly later on.
The differences between the two of them were way too obvious.
Tang Yu recalled everything that happened in the ancient battlefield and felt sad.
Although the two of them had not spent much time together, she was still secretly looking forward to their next meeting.
But now, all her hopes had turned into bubbles.
"Does Xiaoning know about this?" Ji Chengtian suddenly asked.
"She does."
Tang Yu said, "She locked herself up without eating or drinking for an entire day. Thankfully, she has the Night Spirit by her side. At the very least, she's not in any danger."
In another cave abode.
Xiao Ning curled her legs and leaned against the wall. Her eyes were red and swollen as she sobbed softly.
The Night Spirit quietly stood guard at the side. His eyes revealed a hint of worry.
Then, as if it had thought of something, the killing intent in its eyes surged!
Western Regions.
In the depths of the desert.
Beside a tomb, a fatty sat in a daze, muttering softly, "Big brother, why … why did you leave just like that?"
Little Fatty sat beside the tomb, wailing like a child.
…
North Region, Great Qian Ruins.
On this day, two uninvited guests came to the ruins. They looked exhausted.
One of them was very tall, at least two meters tall. His limbs were long and slender, and his hands hung down naturally, reaching past his knees.
The tall man held a long staff in his hand. His eyes were fierce and there was a hint of red light in them.
The other person was bare-handed. Although he was a little shorter, his body looked stronger and sturdier.
Both of them had extremely long and heavy body hair. Although they were in human form, the demonic qi they exuded could not be concealed at all!
Two demons!
If Su Zimo was here, he would definitely be able to recognize that the two men were monkey and Linghu who had been missing for many years!
Monkey barged into the depths of the ruins with a long staff in hand and broke through the encirclement of the otherworldly soldiers, charging straight for the Dragon Burial Valley.
Linghu supported from behind, repelling the otherworldly soldiers that rushed up from behind.
After not seeing each other for more than a year, monkey and Linghu had already formed their Inner Cores.
Not only did their cultivation realms not fall, their combat strength was rather frightening as well!
It was especially the case for monkey. No otherworldly soldier could defend against the direction of his staff.
With a single strike, they were reduced to ashes!
Before long, monkey and Linghu arrived at the edge of the Dragon Burial Valley.
Looking at the cliff beneath his feet, Linghu felt a wave of dizziness and could not help but gasp, retreating a few steps back instinctively.
Monkey narrowed his eyes as well.
In the Dragon Burial Valley, they could sense an extremely terrifying aura and energy fluctuation that was shuddering!
"Boss, let's head back. This is the territory of the human race after all. I can't help but feel uneasy, "Linghu's expression was terrible.
Demons could speak in human tongue after cultivating their Inner Cores!
Although he was sad about Su Zimo's death as well, he was not as happy as Linghu.
After all, he was not like monkey who traveled thousands of miles day and night just to catch a glimpse of the place where Su Zimo died.
"Boss, there's no point in you watching here. He's already jumped down,"
Linghu persuaded again, "Let's head back and continue occupying a mountain. We can live as happily as we want."
Monkey did not reply and merely gazed at the Dragon Burial Valley quietly. The blood glint in his eyes intensified and the killing intent around him was almost corporeal!
After an unknown period of time, monkey finally turned around slowly and the blood glint in his eyes faded. He nodded to Linghu. "Let's go."
Monkey and Linghu soared into the air and vanished into the horizons in the blink of an eye.
Not long after, the void above the Dragon Burial Valley tore open without any warning with a sinister gust of wind.
Two figures leaped out from within.
The old man at the front was still rather composed. However, the other person was much worse and stumbled out with a pale face. His legs were wobbly and he could barely stand!
The old man wore a Confucian crown and long robes. His face was flushed and his long beard swayed gently with the wind.
If a table were to appear, the old man would look like a storyteller from the pugilistic world with his left hand and a folding fan with his right!
The man at the back was slightly plump and beardless. He was Lin Xuanji who had entered the Dragon Bone Valley of the Nine Forbidden Grounds with Su Zimo!
The old man arrived at the edge of the Dragon Burial Valley and looked down in silence.
Lin Xuanji heaved a sigh of relief and could not help but ask, "Old man, what's beneath the Dragon Burial Valley?"
"What do you think?"
The old man glanced at Lin Xuanji and asked instead.
"It's nothing more than a ground full of corpses …"
As Lin Xuanji said that, he caught sight of a strange expression on the old man's face. A thought flashed through his mind and he jumped in fright when he thought of a possibility!
"Old man, there can't be anyone alive down there, right?"
"Heh!"
The old man gave an odd laugh as a silent acknowledgment.
Lin Xuanji rubbed his chin and said in a deep voice, "In that case, that lad might still be alive!"
Lin Xuanji revealed a delighted expression and chuckled. "I knew it. That lad's life is tough. How can someone who is still alive after eating a dragon egg in the Dragon Bone Valley die so easily?"
However, the old man shook his head with an indifferent expression. "What you said isn't the key to this matter."
"Ah?" Lin Xuanji was confused.
The old man continued, "The key to this matter is that even if Su Zimo isn't dead, he's no different from being dead."
Lin Xuanji was deep in thought.
The old man continued, "Don't forget, that lad's Jin Dan is destroyed and his Inner Core is shattered. It's equivalent to his entire cultivation being gone! Even if he's alive, he's no different from a mortal. "
Realization dawned on Lin Xuanji.
The old man was right. With his Jin Dan destroyed and his Inner Core shattered, Su Zimo was no longer the number one monster incarnate of history!
So what if he was alive?
Lin Xuanji would never have the chance to take revenge.
The old man lamented and sighed gently. "Back then, there was an expert behind that lad who spent a lot of effort to change his fate. Unfortunately … he couldn't win against fate in the end!"
