Inside the secret chamber, everything was strange. Wutian racked his brains and could not think of a reason why it was like this.
He stuck his ear to the crack of the door, intending to eavesdrop. Perhaps he could get some useful information from the conversation inside.
However, after waiting for four hours, there was no sound coming from inside. Apart from the sound of breathing, there was only silence.
In the end, Wutian couldn't wait any longer because it was already dark outside. If he didn't go back, Han Tian and the others would definitely be worried. Who knew what kind of trouble he would cause?
He took another look at the secret chamber and turned to leave.
Tap, tap …
When he was halfway back, faint footsteps came from the front. Wutian signaled to Little Rascal with his eyes and went into a small path. He concealed his aura and waited quietly.
As time went by, the footsteps became louder and louder. Wutian was sure that the person was going to the secret chamber.
He stuck his head out and after a while, he finally saw a figure striding towards him in the dim path.
It's really him!
Wutian could not see the person's face clearly due to the dim light. However, he was sure that the person was the Emperor of the Great Confucian Empire from the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon on his robe!
Wutian was not too surprised. The Lotus Lake was in the palace and was guarded by a large number of guards. It was inevitable that the person was related to the Emperor.
The Emperor did not notice that there was someone lurking beside him and walked past Wutian. He also did not notice that after he left, a figure was following him sneakily in the dark.
Wutian returned halfway to find out what the Emperor and the Fire Jiao were plotting.
After a while, the Emperor came to the stone chamber. He pushed the door open and walked in. However, after a rumbling sound, the big stone door was tightly shut. Even the crack from before did not exist.
Wutian walked to the stone door and frowned. He then put his ear on the stone door and a voice came from inside.
"Your Majesty!"
"Hmm, how's the preparation?"
"Your Majesty, with the help of the Dragon God Mountain Range, it will definitely be completed within a year!"
"Good." The Emperor seemed to be very happy and laughed a few times. Then, he warned, "This item is the blood and sweat of the previous Emperors. It has been prepared for thousands of years, and countless people have sacrificed their lives for it. Remember, there must be no mistakes."
"Understood!"
After this sentence, there was no more sound.
Wutian frowned. The last sentence undoubtedly revealed a dangerous signal. This place had existed for thousands of years. Ever since one of the emperors of the Great Confucian Empire, they had been planning something.
To plan for thousands of years and sacrifice countless lives, the matter that they were planning must be extraordinary.
However, what puzzled Wutian the most was why the Dragon God Mountain Range was involved. According to the conversation between the two, the other dozens of ferocious beasts in the secret chamber should be existences in the Dragon God Mountain Range.
With the addition of the Fire Jiao, the Barbaric Flaming Bulls, and the Blood-devouring Insects, everything became more and more confusing.
In fact, Wutian did not want to care about it. Who cared about the conspiracy? It had nothing to do with him. However, he had a vague premonition that this matter involved a lot of people and might even implicate him.
While he was deep in thought, he suddenly heard footsteps. Wutian hurriedly left the stone chamber and hid in the darkness.
Not long after, the sound of the large stone door opening and closing was heard. Then, the Emperor strode away and disappeared at the end of the passage.
Looking at the Emperor's back, Wutian's eyes flickered. After thinking for a moment, he ordered, "Little guy, you stay here and watch. No matter what, you must find out what they are planning."
"Why? If you want to watch, do it yourself. The Frog Lord has no time. "The little guy immediately refused.
"As long as you help me with this matter, after we go to the Absolute Yin Ruins, all the treasures we get will belong to you." Wutian tempted.
"Really?" The little guy looked at him suspiciously, obviously not believing his words.
Wutian nodded seriously.
Seeing this, the little guy held his chin and thought for a while. Then, he said, "Okay, but I have to add one more condition. After the God of Heaven's Left and Right Hands are repaired, you must give me one."
The God of Heaven's Left and Right Hands were Holy Weapons. Although they were damaged, after being repaired by Little Wu Hao, they could unleash the power of an Imperial Weapon. There were not many Imperial Weapons, and there was only one in the entire Asura Palace. Therefore, the little guy could not help but covet it and take the opportunity to extort!
"No problem!"
Wutian smiled and agreed without hesitation. After another hour, the two of them walked out of the lake.
"Don't be discovered."
Before leaving, Wutian was still worried and reminded him again. Then, he passed through the restriction and swam towards the lake. As for the Unsealing Talisman, he left it to the little guy.
Along the way, there was no danger. When Wutian safely arrived at the encampment, the sky was already completely dark. A bright moon hung high in the sky, emitting a hazy moonlight.
Han Tian frowned and said, "Wutian, where did you go? If you didn't come back, we would have searched the entire city. "
"Nothing, I was just strolling around." Wutian did not tell everyone what he saw today and vaguely replied.
Di Tian took a step forward and asked doubtfully, "Where's the little guy? Wasn't he with you just now? Why did you come back alone? "
"Sigh!" "Don't mention it." Wutian shook his head and sighed.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but smile. They all thought that the little guy had gone somewhere to cause trouble again.
Wutian looked at the people from the South Sparrow Continent and the West Tiger Continent, and they were also looking at him. However, they only glanced at him coldly before looking away and closing their eyes to cultivate.
Di Tian smiled and said, "You came back at the right time. I was just about to tell you some news and discuss how to deal with the enemy in the future."
"News?" Everyone was puzzled.
Di Tian smiled and stretched out his hand, indicating for everyone to sit.
Wutian, Han Tian, Meng Xuan, Tian Gang, Ye Tian, and the Asura Ten Heroes all sat around Di Tian. Even Li Tian was among them, but he didn't say anything and only listened quietly.
Di Tian said, "According to my inquiries today, I finally figured out the background of the West Tiger Continent and the South Sparrow Continent."
"So fast?!"
Wutian and the others were extremely surprised. The people from the two continents had just arrived, and Di Tian had already started investigating. Moreover, it seemed like he had gained a lot.
"Hurry up and tell us." Everyone was quite anxious. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win a hundred battles. Everyone understood this principle.
Di Tian smiled and told them all the information he had gathered. However, his voice wasn't loud enough for everyone to hear.
According to him, the South Sparrow Continent's Qing Sect was a special sect. All of their disciples had Wood Spiritual Bodies. Of course, there were also some who had Double Spiritual Bodies or even Three Spiritual Bodies, but one of them was definitely a Wood Spiritual Body.
Everyone knew that the Wood Spiritual Body's strength was not in attack, but in support, such as healing, etc. Thus, the Qing Sect was weaker than the other top sects.
Fifteen people from the Qing Sect had come. The Holy Son was called Hai Wei, and the Holy Daughter was called Bai Zhu. Their cultivation levels were the highest, and they were both above the Hundred Dynasties Dacheng Stage.
As for the Void Sect's disciples, most of them had Fire Spiritual Bodies. They were geniuses who could control the fire element and were very strong overall.
The Holy Son, Xu He, and the Holy Daughter, Yin Yuhong, were both at the Dacheng Stage.
It was said that the Qing Sect and the Void Sect had a very good relationship. Moreover, they cultivated an extremely mysterious technique together. The Qing Sect was the support, and the Void Sect was the main attack. When the two worked together, they could unleash twice their combat strength.
The leader of the Sword Sect was the man in white who had fought with Di Tian, Zhan Feng!
This person was very accomplished in the Way of the Sword. It was said that he was very famous among the younger generation in the South Sparrow Continent and was known as the Little Sword Saint.
The other members of the Sword Sect were also very talented in the Way of the Sword and could not be underestimated.
The two sects of the West Tiger Continent.
A total of twenty-five people came from the Gutuo Temple. The strongest was the Arhat.
The Ghost Sect had the same number of people, and their overall strength was on par with the Gutuo Temple. The leader was the person who had fought with the Arhat. His name was Gui Guzi, and he was the last disciple of the Ghost Sect Master.
Compared to the Azure Dragon Continent, the South Sparrow Continent and the West Tiger Continent had half the number of people. However, every one of them had been carefully selected, and the weakest among them was at the Great Success Stage of the Channel Opening Stage. They were a force that could not be ignored.
In the end, Di Tian solemnly stated that there were powerful existences hidden in every power. However, due to the short time they had, they could not find out who they were.
Wutian and the others were not surprised by this. Everyone here was from the top sects of the various continents, so it was normal for there to be crouching tigers and hidden dragons. For example, Li Tian was low-key and quiet, but his strength was unfathomable.
Tian Gang suggested, "The Absolute Yin Ruins are extremely dangerous. Not only do we have to be wary of the people from other powers, we also have to be careful of the ferocious beasts inside. Therefore, we can form an alliance with one or two sects."
Ye Tian sneered, "It's hard to know what's in a person's heart. If we don't make a good choice, we'll be in the same league as the wolves."
"In my opinion, we can forget about forming an alliance. With the Valley of Ice and the Asura Palace working together, we'll be able to sweep through everything." Han Tian disagreed, his face full of disdain.
"We can't be careless. Don't forget that there's still the great powers of the Zhongyao Continent!"
Di Tian shook his head. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "According to my observation on the city wall today, although the Gutuo Temple is known as a Buddhist disciple, they're not good people. They have the face of a Buddha and the heart of a devil.
On the contrary, although the Ghost Sect cultivates evil techniques, they're very frank in their words and actions. They're worth considering.
As for the Sword Sect, Azure Sect, and Void Sect, I can see that their relationship is very good. They probably won't cooperate with sects from other continents like us. "
Han Tian mocked, "So what if we form an alliance? In front of benefits, an alliance is just a joke. Who knows when they'll stab you in the back."
"Hehe, aren't we the same?" Di Tian laughed.
Everyone was well aware that the so-called alliance was only a temporary alliance. They would use each other, and in the end, they would definitely collapse and fight for themselves. However, if they formed an alliance, they would be able to live longer and go further. Naturally, their gains would be greater.
"I agree with Di Tian's idea. As for the final winner, it'll depend on their own abilities!" The taciturn Li Tian suddenly expressed his opinion.
"Haha, this is just an idea of mine. Whether it can be implemented or not is another matter. Everyone, rest early. I believe that everyone who should be here will be here for the auction tomorrow. Those precious treasures should also appear."
Now that people from all four continents had gathered here, they were all wealthy. The Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion would definitely take out a lot of precious items for auction. When the time comes, a fierce battle would be unavoidable!
