With the death of Bai Ze, the Lord Of Heaven, the Four Great Immortal Sects had finally succeeded in annihilating the Inner Demon Sect. However, the Lord Of Heaven, who had undergone two tribulations and above, did not relax. This was because the cultivators of the Inner Demon Sect needed to travel, hone themselves, and experience the changes in people's hearts. Therefore, a large number of disciples, Perfected Persons, and the Lord Of Heaven were not in the sect during the annihilation. This included the Three Tribulation Lord Of Heaven, Zhu Fan, and several One Tribulation Lord Of Heaven. As for those below the Celestial Being Realm, it was even more difficult to count.
"If we're not careful, the Inner Demon Sect will rise again." Yan Qingying sighed at Shi Xuan, Mo Jingqiu, and Leng Rumei. It would be a long and tortuous process to completely annihilate the Inner Demon Sect. Now, they had only taken the most important step.
At the same time, she raised her head slightly and watched the Five Elements Immortal Sect leave with a smile. She seemed to be in a good mood.
After Mu Yang was awakened, he felt that he had lost all his face. Among the four powerful figures, he was the only one who had fallen into the Inner Demon's Dreamland. The difference in temperament was clear at a glance. Therefore, he hurriedly separated the matters in the Inner Demon Sect and returned with the Lords of Heaven and disciples of the sect.
Leng Rumei still said coldly, "Fortunately, we have the Inner Demon Sect's jade book. We should be able to distinguish between friend and foe based on aura."
Yan Qingying nodded slightly. "In the future, the disciples will pay close attention. Once they discover something abnormal, we may have to trouble the three Perfected Lords." Because they were worried about the revenge of the Inner Demon Sect, they needed the Three Tribulation Lord Of Heaven to handle the abnormal matters in a short period of time.
After saying that, she saw that Shi Xuan seemed to be thinking about something, so she asked doubtfully, "Perfected Lord Shi, do you have any questions? Can you tell us so that we can discuss it together? "
Shi Xuan pondered for a moment. "I suspect that Bai Ze did not really die."
"Under the fifth Celestial Blight, even the Inner Demon Lord Of Heaven would not be able to escape." Yan Qingying retorted subconsciously. Bai Ze had died to the Dao Heart Decline in front of them. How could it be fake?!
Mo Jingqiu also looked at Shi Xuan in shock. Although Bai Ze had died rather easily, everyone could still see everything that had happened before. Whether it was the madness caused by the decline of his Taoist heart or the dissipation of the inner demons that had invaded the other Lord Of Heaven, it all showed that Bai Ze was completely dead.
Leng Rumei slightly frowned at Shi Xuan's words. Could it be that Perfected Cultivator Shi liked to frighten people with his words?
When Shi Xuan saw their expressions, he sighed slightly in his heart. If Meng Nishang or his own master were here, they would have immediately understood what he was referring to. Mo Jingqiu's temperament and intelligence were not bad. Furthermore, with the pressure from Mu Jing, he did not lack caution. However, in the end, he came from a super large sect, so he did not have to go through many tribulations. Thus, his knowledge of the finer details was lacking.
"Bai Ze used the Inner Demon Dreamland at the end, obviously to escape. Why did he not do anything?"
Yan Qingying felt that this was not a reason, but Shi Xuan's strength was close to the fourth tribulation, so she still had to give him some respect. "He was dragged out by us. How could he have had a chance to escape?"
Shi Xuan smiled. "Then why did he create Lu Rui's Demonic Shadow to kill us, the third tribulation Lord Of Heaven? Of course, this is very easy to explain. I almost destroyed the entire Inner Demon Sect with one sword strike, so Bai Ze Lord Of Heaven's desire to kill me must be very strong. However, the most important thing is that since the Inner Demon Dreamland was derived from the fear, hatred, and disgust in the heart of the Five Elements Immortal Sect's Lord Of Heaven, why didn't Bai Ze Lord Of Heaven's Demonic Shadow appear? "
"Normally, there should be two Bai Ze Lord Of Heaven. One is the original body, and the other is the Demonic Shadow!" Mo Jingqiu suddenly understood.
Yan Qingying's expression became serious, "True Monarch Shi, are you saying that the Bai Ze we killed was an Illusory Demon Shadow, and the real Bai Ze had already escaped while the Illusory Demon Shadow was attracting us? But before Bai Ze was affected by the backlash of the Immortal Technique, he was as strong as us. This isn't something that can be derived from the Inner Demon Dreamland. "
"And when his Dao Heart declined, countless Inner Demon thoughts appeared, and he also fell into the Degeneration Tribulation." Leng Rumei also voiced her doubts.
Shi Xuan said calmly, "We can find a way to solve this. After all, the Inner Demon Dreamland is a formation-type Immortal Technique, and Bai Ze used it himself. It's not impossible to temporarily increase the strength of a certain Demonic Shadow. Sect Leader Yan, True Monarch Leng, don't you think that Bai Ze's Secret Technique lasted too short? He didn't suffer any serious injuries. And the Inner Demon thoughts that followed him could be Bai Ze abandoning the pawn to protect the general and deceiving everyone. This is the usual method of the Inner Demon Sect's Lord Of Heaven. "
After listening to Shi Xuan's detailed explanation, Yan Qingying's and Leng Rumei's expressions became even more serious. They began to lean towards believing Shi Xuan, especially since Bai Ze's Immortal Technique had started to backfire in less than three breaths of time. It was indeed strange.
"As for my question just now, there are only two explanations. Either the Mu Lord Of Heaven never feared or hated Bai Ze, or what appeared in front of us was only Bai Ze's Demonic Shadow. If it's the latter, it naturally means that Bai Ze has already escaped. If it's the former, everyone knows that the Mu Lord Of Heaven has a bad temperament, and he should be most afraid of Inner Demons. Then why doesn't he hate or fear Bai Ze? Unless they colluded long ago. Since that's the case, the Mu Lord Of Heaven left in one piece, which means that Bai Ze didn't die. "
Shi Xuan slowly said, "No matter what the explanation is, Bai Ze shouldn't have died. At most, his strength will be greatly damaged."
After a while, Yan Qingying, Mo Jingqiu, and Leng Rumei no longer had any doubts. The hall fell into a short silence.
After a while, Yan Qingying said solemnly, "I will tell Sect Leader Lu and the Perennial Immortal Man about this. Although I am inclined to believe that Bai Ze played a trick on everyone, Mu Yang's background is clean after all. Ever since he reached the Essence Soul realm, no matter how difficult it was, there has never been any sign of Inner Demons harming him. However, it's better not to tell him for now. Just in case, we will secretly investigate before making any plans. "
After a pause, she looked deeply at Shi Xuan and said, "Perfected Monarch Shi, your strength and intelligence are extraordinary. You are indeed a good match for Perfected Monarch Mo and a blessing for the Hunyuan Immortal Sect. Now that Bai Ze has escaped, you, as the biggest contributor to the destruction of the Inner Demon Sect, have to be careful. "
Because she was busy discussing with the other two Immortal Sects, Yan Qingying gestured for Shi Xuan and the others to leave after she finished speaking.
After leaving the hall, just as they were about to go their separate ways, Leng Rumei suddenly said coldly, "Perfected Monarch Mo, since we are all from the same sect, we should get closer in the future and eliminate the estrangement. Also, I used a secret technique to refine another Spirit Treasure, a flying sword. I hope Perfected Monarch Shi can give me some pointers. "
Her tone was calm and her emotions didn't change, as if she had been deliberating for a long time.
Shi Xuan and Mo Jingqiu were worried about how to uncover the mysteries of their world. Seeing Leng Rumei's invitation, they naturally didn't refuse.
…
After returning to their cave abode, Mo Jingqiu joked with a smile, "I thought Leng Rumei suddenly changed her temperament, but it turns out that she had an ulterior motive … What happened?" Before she finished speaking, she saw Shi Xuan's expression turn solemn.
"The Inner Demon Sect's Immortal Technique here is very similar to the Lord Of Heaven that I met near the Three Night Palace. They should be of the same origin." Although it was normal to have one or two immortal techniques that were similar or even identical to one's cultivation technique, other than the "Mental Demon Fantasy Realm" that Bai Ze had cast at the end, every immortal technique was extremely similar. The only explanation was that they originated from the same source.
Mo Jingqiu's expression also became solemn. "It seems that Mu Jing or the half-step Golden Immortal who cultivates the Inner Demon Technique found the Universe Cauldron through the clues left by Senior Jiang Xiao. However, they couldn't find the Connate Dao embryo because they didn't have the imprint. If there is no news from my Inner Demon Thoughts for a long time, I'm afraid they will become suspicious and find some clues."
"Time is running out. I have to get the Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice as soon as possible." Shi Xuan took a light breath and suppressed many thoughts.
Mo Jingqiu pursed her lips and said very formally, "Daoist Shi, if, and I mean if, you encounter Mu Jing and the other half-step Golden Immortals, don't panic or give up in despair. That will only lead to death."
Although Shi Xuan was puzzled, he didn't ask more. Instead, he changed the topic. "Why did Bai Ze suddenly attack me and want to kill me, so the grotto-heaven was destroyed in advance? Before that, I didn't know him at all, and at that time, I didn't do anything, so I didn't pose any threat at all. "
Mo Jingqiu was also puzzled. "If that half-step Golden Immortal had already found out that we were here, wouldn't it be easier to capture me? Why would he attack you, Daoist Shi?"
The two discussed this question for a long time, but they couldn't figure it out, so they could only give up for now.
…
The flying speed in the Universe Cauldron was very slow, and they couldn't teleport directly. Therefore, it took half a month for the Hunyuan Immortal Sect to return to the grotto-heaven.
However, thanks to some ancient books on the flying magic treasure, as well as the secrets from Leng Rumei and Yan Qingying, Shi Xuan and Mo Jingqiu finally had a more detailed understanding of the origins of the major immortal sects in this world.
The Hunyuan Immortal Sect and the Myriad Realms Immortal Valley were established at almost the same time, and both were founded by half-step Golden Immortals. The Two Extremes Immortal Sect was established many years later. It was said that the founder of the sect encountered a mysterious half-step Golden Immortal and received the teachings of the Great Dao. However, because this half-step Golden Immortal had never appeared, it was not recognized by the cultivation world.
The Mental Demon Sect was ethereal and strange. No one knew where its inheritance was and when it appeared. Even the captured Lord Of Heaven of the Mental Demon Sect was confused.
As for the inheritance of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, it was recorded that hundreds of thousands of years ago, a cultivator with the surname Mu, a natural genius, accidentally came to a valley with rich five elements. When he saw the five-colored light, he suddenly had an epiphany, so he built a hut here. After a hundred years, he finally created the world-shaking Five-colored Holy Light Fundamental Technique. Later, he established a sect and became a mighty figure, but in the end, he died due to the decline of his Dao Heart.
Shi Xuan didn't believe this record at all. If it was so easy to create the Five-colored Holy Light, how many peerless geniuses and Lord Of Heaven who cultivated the Five Elements Cultivation Method didn't gain anything?!
There was another thing that made Shi Xuan and Mo Jingqiu feel strange. Since more than a hundred thousand years ago, there had been many generations of the four major sects, and each generation only had a four-tribulation Lord Of Heaven, no more and no less.
"We're finally back to the sect." Yan Qingying flew out of the magic treasure with Mo Jingqiu and Shi Xuan.
