After hearing Tensei Shinryū's words, Shen Lang frowned slightly and said coldly, "Pass down the order. Tell the Evil Spirit Sect's Sect Master that I will meet him in Black Rock City tomorrow. If he doesn't come, I will flatten his Evil Spirit Sect within a month."
As Shen Lang's voice fell, a boundless killing intent rose in the entire Nine Silences Hall.
Yan Ruyu didn't say anything but listened quietly. She didn't expect Shen Lang to be so powerful in the Zhenwu Continent. According to them, the Evil Spirit Sect was a force that wasn't inferior to the four ancient clans of the Martial God Continent. However, in Shen Lang's eyes, it didn't seem to be anything.
...
In the Emperor's palace...
Shen Lang and Yan Ruyu sat on a chair. Yan Ruyu said slowly, "Husband, is the disappearance of the Western Ghost Emperor really related to the Evil Spirit Sect?"
Shen Lang shook his head. "It should be related, but it's not the Evil Spirit Sect's doing. The Evil Spirit Sect should know something. I sent a message to the Evil Spirit Sect to put pressure on them. The Evil Spirit Sect is a mysterious force. I already have enough enemies in the entire Zhenwu Continent. If the Evil Spirit Sect can tell me what they know, I won't make things difficult for them."
Yan Ruyu nodded. "Mm, don't worry, Husband. I'll support you in whatever you want to do. Even if this era is a little chaotic, I believe that we will be able to reach the end. Those gods, demons, and immortals aren't that powerful. With our current strength, protecting ourselves shouldn't be a problem."
Shen Lang smiled. "My wife, you underestimate your husband too much. This world is destined to be ours. Anyone who dares to stop us will become the dust of history."
...
The next day, in Black Rock City, everyone looked at a restaurant in awe.
At this moment, there were only a few people sitting in the restaurant. There was no one else in the restaurant. Even the restaurant's owner and waiter had disappeared without a trace.
That was because the people in the restaurant had already fled without a trace after the arrival of these people.
These people were Shenlang, Yan Ruyu, Tensei Shinryū, and the Ghost Emperor from the Hades.
Just as the people were guessing why the Underworld would suddenly appear in Blackrock City, the sky suddenly darkened. No less than ten experts flew through the sky. Following the arrival of these people, the heavens and earth resounded with waves of cheers.
"Evil Spirits descend upon the world, and all living beings submit."
Soon after, the crowd saw a magnificent palanquin being carried by four Insightful Emptiness Realm Experts to the sky above the Black Rock City.
The curtain of the palanquin was lifted, and a figure walked out.
That figure exuded an evil aura. His face was cold, and he wore a black robe embroidered with the image of a ferocious Evil God.
Shenlang sat in front of the table, his expression unmoved. He didn't even look at that person.
That person didn't care. Instead, he moved and appeared in the restaurant in an instant.
Among the dozen or so people who had come with him, two powerhouses at the Void-breaking Realm flew out and followed the man.
Shenlang said indifferently, "Evil Spirit Sect Leader?"
That man's eyes narrowed slightly. "That's right, I am the Evil Spirit Sect Leader. This must be the Master of the Hades, the Great Sacred Emperor Equaling Heaven, right?"
Shenlang nodded. "Please take a seat."
The Evil Spirit Sect Leader's expression didn't change. He came to Shenlang's table and sat down.
"Evil Spirit Sect Leader, you should know why I invited you here. Now, let's not beat around the bush. My people have already told me the ins and outs of the matter. Do you have anything to say?" Shenlang's eyes, which were hidden behind the mask, looked indifferently at the Evil Spirit Sect Leader.
The Evil Spirit Sect Leader nodded. "I've heard that the disappearance of the Western Ghost Emperor in your residence is related to my Evil Spirit Sect. However, Master of the Hades, I can only tell you that this matter has nothing to do with my Evil Spirit Sect."
"Is that so?"
Shenlang's voice became colder and colder. "Since you said that it has nothing to do with your Evil Spirit Sect, why did you suddenly fall out with me when my people asked you? What do you have to say about this matter?"
The Evil Spirit Sect Leader's expression changed slightly, and he said in a low voice, "I was indeed a little emotional back then. I thought that you, the Hades, were deliberately finding trouble with my Evil Spirit Sect. I can apologize for this matter."
"Haha!"
Shenlang sneered. "I've never accepted apologies. In my eyes, apologies are just perfunctory. I won't talk nonsense with you. I just want to know if you know anything. If you tell me the truth today, I'll treat the conflict between our two factions as if nothing happened. How about it?"
The Evil Spirit Sect Leader took a deep breath. "Master of the Hades, if you really want to know, then I'll tell you.
"I believe that Master of the Hades should know that our world is divided into five main worlds, right?"
Shenlang nodded. "I've heard of it."
The Evil Spirit Sect Leader continued, "The five main worlds and thousands of small worlds. If these worlds want to communicate with each other, there must be a medium. And this medium is the Great Dream Heart Sutra in your sect's hands.
"The Great Dream Heart Sutra is a cultivation technique created by the Great Dream Immortal King of the Immortal World. Cultivating the Great Dream Heart Sutra allows one to travel to any world. However, during the era of chaos in the Immortal World, the Great Dream Immortal King was defeated and the Great Dream Heart Sutra was lost. Later on, Daoist Nine Heavens Chang Chunzi obtained the Great Dream Heart Sutra by chance. At that time, I hadn't walked out of the ancestral land, and the leaders of my Evil Spirit Sect were all juniors. They didn't know what the Great Dream Heart Sutra was, so it didn't attract much attention.
"By the time I walked out of the ancestral land, the Great Dream Heart Sutra had already been obtained by your sect. Although I knew the secret, I knew your strength, so I didn't come to snatch it. The disappearance of the Western Ghost Emperor of the Hades was indeed not the doing of my Evil Spirit Sect. Instead, he might have been discovered by the ruler of the world he went to and was captured or killed."
After listening to the Evil Spirit Sect Leader's explanation, Shenlang understood. This Great Dream Heart Sutra was indeed a bridge to thousands of worlds, and this Evil Spirit Sect Leader was also an ancient figure. The Evil Spirit Sect had an ancestral land where many ancestors of the Evil Spirit Sect were sleeping. Once the time was right, they would wake up and come out of seclusion to participate in the battle of the great world.
"That Evil Spirit Realm really has nothing to do with your Evil Spirit Sect?" Shenlang asked.
The Evil Spirit Sect Leader sighed. "Even if it's unrelated, it's not entirely true. I don't remember it very clearly. It seems that my Evil Spirit Sect isn't a native of the Zhenwu Continent, but from another world. The Zhenwu Continent is the world closest to the Immortal World. Those with great power would come here, hoping to ascend to the Immortal World and be on par with the heavens.
"And the ancestors of my sect should be from that world in the Evil Spirit Realm."
"This Great Dream Heart Sutra, how can I freely enter other worlds?" Shenlang asked slowly.
