Inside the Longevity Hall.
Chu Kuangren was dealing with internal affairs. Since Elder Ruyan and the others had gone into closed-door meditation, his workload had skyrocketed.
Since the replacement disciples were still very young, their efficiency was naturally not as fast as Elder Ruyan and the others.
"The Horizon Wing Sect is sending people over to exchange their cultivation insights. Although they are affiliated forces, the Horizon Wing Sect has lent a helping hand to the Black Heaven Sect when they were in danger. We can't neglect this. Let Nan Gonghuang and the other disciples have a good exchange with them."
"The Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands are being rebuilt, and they've sent people to invite us to attend the ceremony. Are they trying to reconcile with us? Now that they want to reconcile, I'm not going. "
"There have been demonic qi eruptions in the Black Wind Prefecture and Black Water Prefecture recently, but the cause is unknown … This is quite strange. In this Era of Great Battles, everyone from the heavens and earth wants to join in the fun."
Chu Kuangren looked at the memorials that were submitted to him. The sudden increase in his workload made him feel helpless.
This reminded him of Gu Linglong who was far away in the Royal Azure Dynasty. She should be even busier than he was in charge of the internal affairs of the dynasty.
"This is so annoying. Why don't I quit and go into closed-door meditation too?"
Chu Kuangren stretched and said to Lan Yu who was beside him.
"That won't do. How can a Sect Leader say something like that? If anyone else heard it, it would be embarrassing."
At that moment, a voice came from outside the Longevity Hall.
Elder Ruyan, who was dressed in a white robe, walked into the room. She rolled her eyes at Chu Kuangren and said, "I thought Sect Leader would be able to handle it easily, but I can't believe you're already thinking of quitting after I left for less than two days."
Chu Kuangren smiled awkwardly. "Elder Ruyan, I thought you were going into closed-door meditation? Why are you out so soon? "
"Isn't this all thanks to the tea leaves that the Sect Leader gave me? Speaking of which, what kind of tea leaves were those that allowed me to break through to the Sage Realm in just two days, saving me more than ten years of accumulation? "Elder Ruyan was still surprised when she thought of the tea leaves.
That kind of treasure was too rare. It was definitely an Emperor-grade treasure, and not just any ordinary Emperor-grade treasure at that.
"That's the Dao Enlightenment Tea. I've used some of the treasures that I obtained in the past, so I've asked Lan Yu to send some to you."
Chu Kuangren chuckled.
Aside from the Fairfrost Sage who was cultivating the Enlightenment Tea and a few other Sages, no one else in the Black Heaven Sect knew about the Enlightenment Tea.
"This item is extraordinary and too precious. Many thanks to Sect Leader."
"Elder Ruyan has worked hard and made great contributions. It's only right."
"Now that I have broken through to the Saint Realm, there is no need for me to go into closed-door training. Since I have nothing to do anyway, I might as well come back to help the Sect Master manage some trivial matters."
"Really? That's great."
"Sect Leader, stop pretending. Isn't this your plan all along?"
"Haha, in short, it would be for the best if Elder Ruyan could return to help me."
Chu Kuangren chuckled. He had indeed asked Lan Yu to deliver that Dao Enlightenment Tea to Elder Ruyan on purpose. On one hand, it was out of friendship, and on the other hand, he wanted Elder Ruyan to break through to the Sage Realm as soon as possible so that she could return to help him manage the Black Heaven Sect.
"Sigh, I was born with a life of toil," Elder Ruyan lamented.
With Elder Ruyan's help, Chu Kuangren was able to sort out the remaining internal affairs in no time.
He stretched his body. "It's great that Elder Ruyan has returned. You've saved me a lot of trouble. I'll have to trouble you from now on."
"Then I'll be in your care in the future, Sect Leader."
…
In the remaining days, the Black Heaven Sect developed in an orderly manner.
Aside from Elder Ruyan, the other disciples who were chosen to replace the elders had also improved by leaps and bounds. In just a few months, they were able to handle their respective duties with ease. This saved Chu Kuangren a lot of trouble as his days of free time gradually became more plentiful.
He thought of the Acheron Tablet that he obtained from the Acheron Manor, so he decided to go into closed-door training to study it.
While Chu Kuangren was in closed-door training to study the Acheron Tablet, the outside world was not peaceful.
One of the Ten Great Forbidden Areas, the Purgatory Forest.
The Purgatory Forest was filled with skeletons. It was like an Asura's purgatory, hence its name.
Today, a group of people suddenly appeared outside the Purgatory Forest.
Each of these people exuded a strange demonic qi, and their leader was the sky-pride Tuba, who was on the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard.
Although this person was on the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard, he rarely fought, and his strength was a mystery. However, the fact that he was listed in the top ten of the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard was enough to show that he was extraordinary.
"So this is the Purgatory Forest, the Ashura tribe's territory. This scene really does have the characteristics of that group of people."
A demon with a single horn on his head and yellow eyes grinned as he kicked a skull on the ground.
"Young Master, there are a total of eighteen restrictive spells in this Purgatory Forest, and they're all interconnected. It's not an easy task to enter."
Beside Tuba was an old man in a white robe who was holding a black compass in his hand.
On the compass, mysterious patterns of light flowed and released invisible waves, as if it was trying to find out the geographical features of the Purgatory Forest.
"Of course, it's not easy to enter the Purgatory Forest. Otherwise, this place wouldn't be one of the Ten Great Forbidden Areas. This is also the reason why I've asked Elder Luo to come here. Elder Luo is the most outstanding Formation Master in the Demonic Realm, and the Onyx Demonic Formation Plate that you have is said to be able to break through tens of thousands of formations. It's ranked third among the Thirty-Three Sacred Weapons of the Demonic Realm. With you here, these eighteen restrictive spells are nothing to worry about."
Tuba smiled faintly at the old man, and his words were filled with flattery.
The old man seemed to feel a little smug from the compliments, and a proud look appeared on his face. "Don't worry, Young Master. Since you've rescued me from the seal, I'll definitely break these eighteen restrictive spells even if I have to sacrifice my life."
"Thank you, Elder Luo."
"Young Master, the restrictive spells can be broken, but there are many experts in the Shura Tribe, and there are even Quasi-emperors among them. Young Master, do you have a plan?"
"Everyone, don't worry, we're not here to fight the Shura Tribe head-on. Our goal is to destroy the Great Formation of the Underworld. From what I know, the formation eye of the Great Formation of the Underworld has been lost for many years, and now it's being maintained by a few Quasi-emperors. Therefore, the Quasi-emperors won't be able to deal with us. On the contrary, as long as we can destroy the formation, not only will we be able to open the passage to the Demonic Realm, but we'll also be able to cause the Quasi-emperors to suffer from the backlash of the formation.
"Haha, that's great."
"Elder Luo, thank you," Tuba said as he looked at Elder Luo who was holding the formation plate.
"For the sake of the Demonic Realm, I'll do it without hesitation."
Elder Luo said in a determined tone. Then, he walked into the eighteen restrictive spells of the Purgatory Forest.
Time flew by.
Half a day passed.
Suddenly, the entire Purgatory Forest started to shake.
The eighteen restrictive spells started to collapse one by one, and the purgatory scene in front of everyone disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by a normal forest.
"So everything before this was an illusion."
"It's a success. Elder Luo has successfully destroyed the eighteen restrictive spells. Everyone, let's follow the plan."
Tuba said as he led the way into the Purgatory Forest.
