In fact, the so-called Five Great Sacred Lands were disdainful of the underground world. They did not think that the underground world was a threat to them.
On the contrary, what the Five Great Sacred Lands considered a threat was actually the mysterious "Tomb".
Tomb had always been elusive. Even now, the Five Great Sacred Lands still did not know what "Tomb" wanted to do or what he was planning.
No matter what, an enemy hidden in the dark was always more dangerous than an enemy out in the open.
At the same time, more than a dozen circular platforms were suspended in mid-air in an empty space.
Without a doubt, the shadows that appeared on the circular platforms were the current members of Tomb. Naturally, this included the former Deputy Leader of the Sacred Alliance, Yinshi, and the Sacred Leader, Ye Lantian.
Tomb had been holding a meeting in this empty space. Seeing that everyone had gathered, Maniac Purplewing went straight to the point.
"Now, we have collected four of the eight elemental core crystals."
The elemental core crystals that fell into Tomb's hands were the wind elemental core crystal, the fire elemental core crystal, the wood elemental core crystal, and the earth elemental core crystal that was brought back by the Savage Fiery Demon from the underground world.
As soon as this was said, someone mocked and said, "We shouldn't have recruited that Lin Yun back then. He caused so much trouble. If it weren't for him, I'm afraid we would have collected all eight elemental core crystals by now."
Everyone looked over and saw that the person who spoke was the Blazing Demon. His tone was filled with dissatisfaction towards Maniac Purplewing.
Maniac Purplewing sneered and asked, "Blazing Prison, are you questioning me?"
The Blazing Demon wanted to say something more, but the Thunder Lord on another circular platform said coldly, "Shut up."
Among the members of Tomb, it was obvious that the Thunder Lord had a very high status. After reprimanding him, the Blazing Demon shut his mouth obediently.
However, Maniac Purplewing also hated Lin Yun to the core. After all, he had recruited Lin Yun, but he had betrayed Tomb, just like what had happened to Golden Mask.
In fact, Purple Wing believed that Lin Yun and Golden Mask must have some sort of relationship. Otherwise, how could the two of them get rid of the Loyalty Contract so easily?
The Blazing Demon's words were not unreasonable. It included Lin Yun lying about not obtaining the Wind Element Core Crystal after killing the Storm Dragon King. As a result, Purplewing had to search for a long time before he found another divine beast that also contained a Wind Element Core Crystal in its body.
"I didn't gather all of you here today to denounce me." Maniac Purplewing changed the topic and went straight to the point.
"We've already obtained four of the eight elemental core crystals. We still need to collect more elemental core crystals."
"After a period of investigation, I've discovered the whereabouts of the water element core crystal."
"The Water Elemental Core Crystal is also in the body of a Mythological Beast. This Mythological Beast is called the Deep Sea Dragon. It lives in the depths of the Everlasting Ocean."
"Savage Fiery Demon, Frenzied Bloodthirsty Demon, the two of you will be responsible for this matter. Head to the Everlasting Ocean and retrieve the Water Elemental Core Crystal."
The Savage Fiery Demon and the Frenzied Bloodthirsty Demon gladly accepted the order. This meeting in the tomb mostly repeated the previous three objectives. Finally, after everyone had left, only Maniac Purplewing and the Thunder Lord were left in this empty space.
After a while, Maniac Purplewing broke the silence and asked, "Feng Wuhen, why didn't you take down Lin Yun this time?"
In fact, when he sent the Thunder Lord to rescue the Savage Fiery Demon, Maniac Purplewing had given him another order, which was to bring Lin Yun back.
The Thunder Lord was a man of few words. He replied calmly, "Demoness Xi is also here."
The meaning behind his words was very clear. It was not easy for him to come back alive with Zixia Fairy present. Furthermore, he had to bring the Savage Fiery Demon along.
Maniac Purplewing frowned and asked, "What do you think of Lin Yun's current strength?"
"He's growing very fast." The Thunder Lord had not forgotten that Lin Yun had not died under his palm back in the Shura Realm.
It had been some time since the incident in the Immortal Spirit Mountains. When he saw Lin Yun again, the Thunder Lord also discovered that Lin Yun's strength had grown very rapidly.
Even the mysterious Golden Mask could not achieve this level of cultivation talent.
"He's someone we must eliminate!" Maniac Purplewing said angrily.
The Thunder Lord was silent for a long time. After saying this, the phantom image dissipated.
"The most important thing now is to focus on our original goal. Lin Yun has not reached the point where he can threaten us."
"When everything is done, I will pay attention to him."
The meeting in the tomb came to an end. At this moment, Lin Yun appeared on Longhu Mountain in the northern region of the Region of Chaos.
Lin Yun's appearance did not alarm anyone else. He stood at the back of Longhu Mountain and looked at the tombstones in front of him.
Not long after, a voice was heard.
"How unlucky, how unlucky. I almost died there."
The person who arrived with the voice was the leader of the Ghost Mask Sect, Lan Fengyuan.
This morning, Lin Yun had received a voice transmission from Lan Fengyuan, which surprised him. He had originally thought that Lan Fengyuan had died in the underground world. He had not expected him to still be alive.
In the voice transmission, Lan Fengyuan did not explain in detail how he had escaped. He only said that he had taken advantage of the chaos to escape.
Lin Yun turned around and saw that Lan Fengyuan's hands were cuffed with an Energy Sealing Lock. There was no doubt that this time, Lan Fengyuan had found Lin Yun to ask Lin Yun to help him open the Energy Sealing Lock.
"I also did not expect you to be alive," Lin Yun replied in a calm tone.
At that time, after saying goodbye to Ri Jun and the others, he had released his Divine Sense to find Lan Fengyuan and take him away.
However, at that time, he could not sense Lan Fengyuan's aura. He thought that Lan Fengyuan had died there.
"Tell me, what happened?"
Opening the Energy Sealing Lock was a simple matter. Lin Yun directly activated the third form of the Demon God Core Crystal. A golden flame condensed on his right hand and directly melted the Energy Sealing Lock.
Lan Fengyuan, who had regained his freedom of movement, began to explain everything that had happened.
"The biology professor had long been controlled by the Elder of the Demon Killing Bureau. His body had been taken over. Our whereabouts in the Earth Village and the underground world were all leaked to Xiao Wenhao by him.
"After that, you insisted on saving the Dragon-Phoenix Beasts. The biology professor and I had planned to wait for you at the entrance for a few days before leaving together. However, who knew that one day later, Xiao Wenhao would come. I was no match for him and could only be arrested. "
What happened next was similar to what Lin Yun had expected.
After the battle at the Imperial Capital, Xiao Wenhao brought Chen Sichang, Lan Fengyuan, and the biology professor to the Iron City. He entered alone and fought with Lin Yun.
