Little Fatty had just swallowed a few elixirs and before he could even catch his breath, he saw that the Corpse Refinement Cult cultivators had already been killed!
Little Fatty's mouth was agape and his eyes were widened – his jaw nearly dropped to the ground.
"The rumors are true. Brother Su is still as ferocious as ever."
Shi Jian gulped and lamented from the bottom of his heart.
"Boss, thank goodness you're here! I missed you so much!"
Little fatty did not change his true colors. Like a huge meatball, he rolled over and pounced into Su Zimo's embrace, crying agitatedly with snot and tears running down his face.
Su Zimo pushed that chubby face away and scolded jokingly, "Cut it out."
Shi Jian walked over as well and cupped his fists towards Su Zimo with a silly smile. "Thank you, Brother Su."
"Why are you being so polite after 20 years?"
Su Zimo chuckled with a relaxed expression.
Back in Xuantian City in the elementary ancient battlefield, he fought against the Four Mounted Bandits alone. Little Fatty, Ji Chengtian, Leng Rou and Shi Jian returned to fight alongside him in a heroic manner!
They were brothers who had gone through thick and thin together!
Little Fatty smiled. "Silly Jian is silly. Don't bother about him, boss."
Little Fatty's excitement after reuniting with the three of them after a long time was indescribable.
Shi Jian did not say much and merely chuckled foolishly.
Although Su Zimo looked rather calm, the smile on his face increased unknowingly.
"Thank you for your help, brothers of the demon race,"
Little Fatty cupped his fists towards monkey and the others and thanked them with a grin.
He was a sociable person to begin with. Furthermore, he had already gotten to know monkey and Linghu back on Misty Peak.
"Boss, I heard about what happened in the North Region from Silly Jian."
Little Fatty consoled, "Don't be afraid. Follow me back to the sect this time round and I'll beg master to take you in. Although Tomb Sect's legacy is weak, we have a long history after all and have some foundation!"
"Furthermore, Tomb Sect's forte is concealment! Outsiders won't be able to find our residence at all! "
Almost everyone in the North Region knew that Su Zimo had offended Glass Palace.
Ordinary cultivators would avoid Su Zimo the moment they saw him, afraid that they would be implicated.
However, Little Fatty did not have any such considerations when he saw Su Zimo. Instead, he was helping Su Zimo with ideas and ideas.
Touched, Su Zimo patted little fatty on the shoulder.
Although it sounded like an idea, it was not too practical.
Little Fatty was a Perfected Being Jin Dan. Even if he was a legacy disciple, his words did not carry much weight in the sect.
It was impossible for most sects to offend a super sect like Glass Palace for him alone. The losses outweighed the gains.
Furthermore, although Tomb Sect was one of the five heretical doctrines, it was common knowledge that they had few disciples and could not go against Glass Palace.
"Brother Su, I-I can head back and tell them that Puppet Sect …"
Shi Jian mustered his courage and wanted to share Su Zimo's burden.
Su Zimo waved it off with a smile and changed the topic. "It's nothing much. Let's talk about this in the future. Right, why did you guys get into a fight with those Corpse Refinement Cult cultivators? "
Shi Jian gripped his fists and said hatefully, "Puppet Sect and Corpse Refinement Cult are mortal enemies to begin with. There's naturally no way they would let me off when they caught sight of me."
"Oh?"
Su Zimo raised his brow slightly.
In Tianhuang Mainland, the nine immortal sects, seven fiend sects, six Buddhist monasteries, five heretical doctrines and four unorthodox groups … there were indeed mortal enemies among those super sects with a long history of feuds!
For example, Heavenly Dipper Sect of the immortal sects and Malevolent Earth Sect of the fiend sects were mortal enemies.
There were such opposing factions among the immortal sects as well.
For example, Glass Palace had an extremely bad relationship with Snowdrift Valley of the Middle Continent.
Shi Jian said, "Initially, there were no five heretical doctrines. Corpse Refinement Cult was created by a traitor of Puppet Sect!"
"That person was the most talented cultivator of Puppet Sect and had hopes of becoming an emperor if he continued cultivating! However, he eventually walked down the path of evil and placed all his attention on corpses. "
"In order to refine corpses, that person became addicted to killing and committed heinous crimes. He cultivated until he was neither human nor ghost and finally incurred the wrath of the sect."
Everyone was engrossed when they heard Shi Jian talk about the past of Puppet Sect.
When Shi Jian paused for a moment, Little Fox could not help but ask, "And then?"
Shi Jian heaved a sigh of relief. "Some experts of the sect pitied his talent and could not bear to cripple his cultivation. They tried to persuade him but were killed by him instead!"
"Sigh, that person is truly powerful. Even when many experts of the sect joined forces, he managed to kill his way out!"
"Although the patriarchs of the sect were alarmed eventually, that person was already a force to be reckoned with. At that time, he even joined forces with one of the heretical doctrines, Poison Sect. If they were to kill him with everything they had, Puppet Sect would be in danger of being destroyed as well!"
"Helpless, Puppet Sect could only allow him to leave. Not long after, he created Corpse Refinement Cult in Tianhuang Mainland and gradually grew in power, becoming one of the five heretical doctrines. "
"No wonder."
When he heard that, a look of realization flashed through Su Zimo's eyes. "Just Now, I vaguely realized that the method of controlling battle corpses of Corpse Refinement Cult is similar to the methods of Puppet Sect. One is evil and the other is righteous. So, they're from the same sect. “
"It's a pity. Although they were once from the same sect, they're like fire and water now," Shi Jian said.
Little Fatty shifted his beady eyes and looked around. When he saw that more cultivators were gathering, he whispered, "Let's go. We can't stay here for long. Let's leave first!"
"Yes,"
Su Zimo nodded. "You guys leave first. I'll go and snatch that metal rod over!"
Although their fight with Corpse Refinement Cult had ended, the commotion here alerted even more cultivators.
Right now, there were already many cultivators and demon beasts fighting for the supreme-grade Dharmic weapon with four Dharmic patterns in midair!
That was the item that Su Zimo had his eyes on as well.
They had wandered around for an entire day and passed by more than ten cave abodes. That Dharmic weapon was of the highest grade.
"D-Don't go!"
Little Fatty tugged at Su Zimo's arm hurriedly and whispered, "There's no need to fight for that scrap metal. Let's go somewhere else!"
"Ah?
Su Zimo froze for a moment.
Wasn't that a little too arrogant?
In the eyes of Little Fatty, supreme-grade Dharmic weapons were only scrap metal?
Little Fatty said mysteriously, "Follow me. I'll bring you guys to another place!"
"What?"
Su Zimo could not help but ask.
Instead of answering, Little Fatty asked, "How many cave abodes did you guys see today?"
Su Zimo replied, "More than ten."
"Yes,"
Little Fatty was not surprised at all. "According to my calculations, there will be more than ten cave abodes like that!"
"That many?"
Su Zimo was shocked and asked with a frown, "Why are there so many cave abodes here? Did something happen here?"
"I guess so,"
Little Fatty retracted his rare smile and said in a deep voice, "There's a gigantic tomb beneath this place! The true treasures are all within this tomb! "
"As for these cave abodes that appeared, they are merely illusions left behind by the tomb owner!"
