"The reason why the Souleater Sect is called a demonic sect is because they refine people's flesh and blood in order to cultivate their demonic arts. Back then, the Souleater Sect's territory could be said to have been plunged into misery and suffering. Moreover, in order to prevent us from interfering, they even sealed off the news. However, there was no such thing as an impenetrable wall. In the end, this news still reached Yufeng Pavilion."
"With such a demonic sect appearing in the Oshikaze Empire, our Yufeng Pavilion naturally could not sit by and do nothing. Thus, we dispatched a large number of disciples to eradicate the Souleater Sect. However, when we arrived at the Souleater Sect, we were stunned to discover that the sect leader was actually a cabinet disciple who had mysteriously disappeared in the Magical Beast Mountain Range back then." At this point, a trace of sorrow appeared on the first elder's aged face.
Xing Jue had long since guessed that the sect leader of the Souleater Sect was definitely that missing cabinet disciple. Moreover, when he saw the first elder's sorrowful face, Xing Jue also guessed that the first elder definitely had some friendship with the sect leader of the Souleater Sect.
"At that time, I was one of the Yufeng Pavilion disciples who went to eradicate the Souleater Sect. The sect leader of the Souleater Sect was my close friend. At that time, his mind had already become muddled and he did not recognize us at all. In the end, we had no choice but to personally kill him."
"Furthermore, we found the culprit that had caused him to become so violent. That was the Heaven Fiend Demonic Art. Originally, the Heaven Fiend Demonic Art had already been destroyed by us. Who would have thought that it would once again appear in Bai Yunfei's body?" The first elder said slowly. Clearly, he still felt pained about what had happened back then.
"Then how does the first elder plan to deal with Bai Yunfei?" After learning the truth of the matter, Xing Jue had already determined that the lost Soul Devouring Art was not in Yufeng Pavilion. Instead, it was in the hands of that disciple from back then. Now that Bai Yunfei was actually able to practice the Heaven Fiend Demonic Art, he might even know the whereabouts of the Soul Devouring Art, which was why he had asked.
"Those who practice the Heaven Fiend Demonic Art will sooner or later be devoured by that evil power. Therefore, he cannot be left alive." The first elder sighed and said helplessly.
"First elder, I sincerely wish to see Bai Yunfei." Xing Jue suddenly asked after a moment of silence.
"Oh? Why? "After hearing Xing Jue's words, the Great Elder suddenly turned around and asked in puzzlement.
"The Infiend Demon Art was destroyed long ago, but Bai Yunfei still has it. That means it's still in existence!"
"This Innate Demon Art is so strange. As long as it exists, it'll be a disaster. So I'd like to request to see Bai Yunfei and ask him where he learned this Innate Demon Art." Xing Jue said solemnly with a righteous and awe-inspiring expression. Actually, Xing Jue only wanted to find the Soul Devouring Art. As for who cultivated the Innate Malevolent Demon Technique, that had nothing to do with him.
"Haha, we've already asked, but Bai Yunfei didn't say a word about it. But if you want to, then we'll let you try." The first elder replied with a smile.
Now that the first elder had given his permission, Xing Jue's face didn't change, but his heart was blooming with joy.
On the surface of the outer pavilion of the Imperial Wind Pavilion, there was a huge group of buildings. However, under the surface, there was a large group of secret rooms. From time to time, there would be miserable screams coming out from the secret rooms. In addition to the murderous aura from the Punishment Elders, this place gave people an extremely gloomy feeling. This was the place where the prisoners of the outer pavilion of the Imperial Wind Pavilion were imprisoned.
In the deepest part of the prison was an extremely cold and damp room. In this room sat a young man covered in scars. It was Bai Yunfei.
As the door to the prison opened, a figure walked in. When Bai Yunfei looked up, he spoke in surprise, "Xing Jue?"
When he saw the scars on Bai Yunfei's face, Xing Jue was startled. "Did they torture you?"
"Haha, it'd be strange if I didn't suffer in here. You didn't come here just to see me in a sorry state, did you? If you have something to say, just say it. "Bai Yunfei suddenly laughed. Clearly, he was not surprised by the way the prison worked.
"Haha, you're right. I've come to ask you about something." Xing Jue smiled and said in an undeniable manner. Then he walked to Bai Yunfei's side and sat down on the ground.
"Don't tell me you came here to ask me about the Devilcraft of Tiansha?"
"If it's about that, then don't talk about it. I won't tell you." Bai Yunfei said with a cold smile after giving Xing Jue a look.
Xing Jue was already prepared for Bai Yunfei's attitude, so he was not surprised. Instead, he moved closer to Bai Yunfei's side and said softly, "If you don't want anything to happen to your sister, you'd better tell me obediently."
"You... dare..." Hearing Xing Jue's words, Bai Yunfei suddenly became nervous and stared angrily at Xing Jue.
Before coming to the prison, Xing Jue had done some research on Bai Yunfei. In the end, he found out that Bai Yunfei had a sister. Although the Yufeng Pavilion would use torture to interrogate prisoners, they would not be so despicable as to use a family member to threaten a prisoner. But Xing Jue did not care about that.
"Do you think your sister is more important, or is the Devilcraft of Tiansha that caused you to be in such a state more important?" Xing Jue was not afraid in the slightest and said calmly.
"Fine! As long as you agree to one condition, I'll tell you. "After a moment of silence, Bai Yunfei decided to compromise.
"What condition? Tell me." Xing Jue smiled in satisfaction and replied straightforwardly.
"Help me take care of my sister." Bai Yunfei said slowly as he looked at Xing Jue. At this moment, his eyes, which were originally filled with killing intent, were unexpectedly filled with a look of hope.
"Don't worry. I'll make sure your sister has enough food and clothing for the rest of her life." Seeing the look of hope in Bai Yunfei's eyes, Xing Jue could also feel how important his sister was to Bai Yunfei, so he immediately promised.
"I believe you." After hearing Xing Jue's promise, a rare smile of relief appeared on Bai Yunfei's face. He then said, "What do you want to know? Ask."
"Tell me how you discovered the Devilcraft of Tiansha." Seeing that Bai Yunfei had finally compromised, Xing Jue said with a smile.
The reason why Xing Jue asked this was because Xing Jue had already guessed that the Devilcraft of Tiansha had definitely been discovered by Bai Yunfei himself. Otherwise, he wouldn't be unaware of the dangers of the Innate Cursed Demonic Art.
After sorting out his emotions, Bai Yunfei began to speak slowly, "Ten years ago, I went with my father to the back of the mountains to chop firewood. In the end, we accidentally discovered a secret room.
"Out of curiosity, my father and I went in. But after we went in, we discovered that the secret room was a completely different world. Not only was it extremely dark, it was also extremely large. It was so large that it was terrifying.
"At that time, my father was afraid that there would be danger inside, so he had me wait at the door while he went in by himself. But not long after he went in, there was a miserable scream, and then..." At this point, a trace of fear appeared on Bai Yunfei's face. Clearly, the events of his childhood had left a very deep shadow in his heart.
"Then what?" Xing Jue hurriedly asked.
"Then there was an extremely terrifying roar. Although it sounded very human, I was certain that it wasn't human." Bai Yunfei said with certainty.
"And then?" Xing Jue continued to ask.
"After my father died, only my younger sister and I were left behind. With no other choice, the two of us could only leave our hometown and beg for food for a living. Later on, I was chosen by a martial-arts family and became the new blood of that family. My younger sister, through my connections, became a maid for that martial-arts family.
"After that, I was sent here. After cultivating here for a year, I felt that my strength was pretty good, so I returned to that mountain again and entered the secret room.
"But that secret room was extremely strange. Not only was it ridiculously large, it was also filled with traps. In the end, I wasn't able to find my father's remains. Instead, I found the Devilcraft of Tiansha.
"After discovering that the Devilcraft of Tiansha was an extremely profound technique, I began to cultivate it." Bai Yunfei said slowly. However, it was clear that he was somewhat regretful about cultivating the Devilcraft of Tiansha.
"Can you tell me the location of that secret room?" Hearing this, Xing Jue couldn't help but feel a trace of hope in his heart, so he immediately asked.
Bai Yunfei then told Xing Jue the specific location of that secret room in detail. As for what Bai Yunfei said, Xing Jue believed it very much. After all, with his relationship with Bai Yunfei's younger sister, Bai Yunfei definitely wouldn't lie to him.
"Xing Jue, I feel that there must be some kind of treasure in the depths of that secret room. However, if you don't have a certain level of strength, I advise you not to forcefully open it." After telling the location of that secret room to Xing Jue, Bai Yunfei warned him.
"Don't worry, I'll take good care of your younger sister." Xing Jue smiled slightly and promised again.
Xing Jue understood what Bai Yunfei meant. In fact, he didn't care about Xing Jue's life at all. However, he was worried that no one would take care of his younger sister.
After making another promise, Xing Jue then left the prison.
The next morning, Xing Jue and the others were led by the First Elder into the cabinet that they had dreamed of for a long time...
Looking at the dazzling palaces in front of him, even Xing Jue found it hard to control the excitement in his heart. The cabinet that he had been looking forward to for a long time, the palace that he looked up to every day, had finally arrived here today.
This time, there were a total of twenty disciples who had entered the cabinet. Because Bai Yunfei had been disqualified, Xiao San had the honor of squeezing into the cabinet as well. In this way, among the twenty people, ten of them were Xing Jue's brothers.
However, this time, they weren't squeezed into one building. Instead, they each had their own mansions. Moreover, in each of these mansions, there was a large group of ordinary people as servants. With such superior living conditions, it was no wonder that the outer pavilion disciples yearned for it so much.
As the champion of the examination, the mansion that Xing Jue lived in was even more luxurious than theirs.
Standing at the top of one of the taller buildings in the Xing manor, Xing Jue, who was dressed in purple, was admiring the beautiful scenery of the cabinet. Looking at the disciples of the cabinet walking past him, Xing Jue could feel that there were no mediocre people in the cabinet.
Apart from the twenty people who had entered this time, every single disciple of the cabinet was a Martial Master. There were even a few strong ones among them. Xing Jue couldn't detect their strength at all, but those people must have reached the level of Wu Zun.
Xing Jue turned around and looked at the huge palace that was several dozen meters tall and pierced through the clouds. He said in a low voice, "Xiao Han, with your strength, I think... you should be in the main pavilion."
