After shattering the last stone statue, Shentu Ze dispersed the black light on his hands. After tidying up his clothes, he opened the door to the quiet room and walked in.
As soon as the door to the quiet room opened, Daoist You Ming immediately sensed it. Seeing Shentu Ze enter, not only did he not feel at ease, but his heart was also in his throat.
Under normal circumstances, anyone who wanted to enter the quiet room would have to go through the guardian stone statue at the door.
The only exception was Daoist You Ming's Master, the King Of The Underworld.
However, Shentu Ze was in the same situation now, which naturally alerted Daoist You Ming. Moreover, there was something wrong with the relaxed expression on Shentu Ze's face.
Previously, because he had lured Xiao Yan over, Daoist You Ming had given Shentu Ze quite a bit of suffering. At that time, Shentu Ze was also in fear and trepidation, filled with fear and regret, and also filled with resentment and jealousy towards Xiao Yan.
But now, it was as if none of those negative emotions had ever appeared on Shentu Ze.
Daoist You Ming looked at his proudest disciple, and Shentu Ze was also looking at him.
As soon as he entered the quiet room, Shentu Ze immediately put his palms together and formed a seal. As black light surged, the entire quiet room was sealed off. This was to ensure that the communication between this place and the outside world was completely cut off.
Daoist You Ming looked at all of this coldly, "When you went to provoke Xiao Yan and the rest, was it intentional?"
Shentu Ze smiled, "If it was only Xiao Yan, Master, you most likely wouldn't have used the power of the netherworld sea. If the master of the Celestial Sect of Wonders had come in personally, Master, I'm afraid you wouldn't have been able to escape. Only by working together with Xiao Yan and Zhu Yi, who has a creation treasure, would you be able to use the power of the netherworld sea and not be caught by them.
"Frankly speaking, it's quite difficult to achieve such an effect. Actually, I wasn't confident. I could only say that I was trying. Fortunately, the result was perfect."
Daoist You Ming looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, "Good, very good. Little Junior Brother betrayed His Majesty, and now, my disciple has also betrayed me."
Shentu Ze said calmly, "Why does Master look so surprised? Back then, you raised me and the others like you were raising a poisonous insect. I also stepped on other senior and junior brothers to get to where I am today. Now that I want to take a step forward, but I don't have any senior and junior brothers by my side, can't I look for you? "
Daoist You Ming stared at him. "Do you think you're very smart? You've ruined my and His Majesty's plans, and you've led a wolf into the house. It's very likely that Xuanmen Tianzong, Taixu Temple, and the descendants of the Ancient Thieves will eventually take advantage of it. You're just acting smart. "
Shen Tu Ze smiled and shook his head. "Master, you must be joking. The more capable you are, the more you will have to think of the corresponding method. Although it is still risky now, at least there is hope of success. For example, the current result is quite good."
"If we continue to wait until the war between the two realms breaks out, until the conflict between Xuanmen Tianzong and Taixu Temple finally breaks out, it would be good, but if that happens, you and His Majesty would be prepared, and I would actually have even less of a chance."
Shen Tu Ze smiled. "I've been learning from you for so long, and I'm confident that I can surpass you in other aspects. Even if I can't do it now, there will be a day when I succeed."
"Only in terms of endurance, I really don't have the confidence to surpass you and His Majesty. The two of you have really reached the peak of endurance. His Majesty is now in seclusion to recover his cultivation, and this is my only chance. When His Majesty comes out, I really suspect that in the end, I will be the one who will be tortured to death by Master and His Majesty. "
Daoist You Ming said lightly, "It's been hard on you. For so many years, you've been pretending to be impatient, violent, and indulging in love and lust."
Shen Tu Ze shook his head. "The Boundless World's history is actually less than twenty years. It's not a long time. I've been learning from you for thousands of years."
Hearing this, Daoist You Ming snorted. If it was only the infatuation he showed toward Xiao Zhen 'er in these ten years, how could he not notice such an abnormality?
In the past, Shen Tu Ze had a time when he was infatuated with a certain girl.
Normally, he was violent and cruel. Although he lost his impatience, he still displayed sufficient standards and abilities. He could be said to be the disciple that Daoist You Ming was most proud of. Only when he encountered a few love tribulations did he lose his standards in front of that girl.
In the long years, this kind of thing had happened intermittently many times.
Because of this problem, Daoist You Ming had punished Shen Tu Ze many times. In recent years, although the problem still existed, Shen Tu Ze seemed to have gradually "matured" a lot.
This time, when Lin Feng went to the Ancient Longevity World to propose marriage on behalf of Xiao Yan, Shen Tu Ze had been very honest in the beginning, and maintained restraint. Lin Feng and Taixu Temple had been in the Ancient Longevity World for a long time, but he had snuck out at the last moment and provoked Xiao Yan to come back.
Now, Daoist You Ming naturally knew that everything was a disguise.
"Master, you didn't specially correct this problem of mine, did you? As long as it doesn't affect the matters between you and His Majesty, you are actually very happy that I have this weakness. " Shen Tu Ze said with a smile, "Only people with weaknesses can be easily controlled, used, restricted, and even killed."
"And as a leader, no matter how strong the subordinates are, as long as they have a relatively crucial weakness, they can be easily controlled. Only such subordinates can be reassured when using them."
Shen Tu Ze said calmly, "The same principle applies to enemies. Just like that Xiao Yan, because of his father's death, and because of my anger at my intention to touch the person he loves, he chased me all the way to the Netherworld Sea to cause trouble for Master. Acting on his emotions, this is his weakness."
"This person is indeed a genius in terms of cultivation. This disciple has cultivated bitterly for thousands of years, but I am still unable to defeat him. But so what? If I act according to his weakness, he is only a knife in my hand. He will obediently come and greet Master on my behalf, and help me achieve great things. "
"Frankly speaking, this disciple doesn't quite understand why a person doesn't want to correct such a major weakness. However, this disciple likes this kind of opponent. The more people like this, the better. Just like that Xiao Yan, if he continues to be like this, it won't be difficult for this disciple to kill him. "
Daoist You Ming looked at him and said slowly, "Now, I can be sure that for these thousands of years, you have indeed been disguising yourself as the kind of person that you despise the most."
Shen Tu Ze smiled slightly, "Master, you are too serious. After today, after obtaining the power that Master has in control of the Netherworld Sea, that Xiao Yan will no longer be my opponent in terms of fighting techniques."
He looked at Daoist You Ming leisurely, "Master, you have never been a person of many words. This disciple knows that you are happy to listen to my nonsense because you want to buy yourself more time, so that you can kill me and turn the tables."
"Actually, this disciple is also not someone who likes to talk too much. The reason why I am chatting with you here is because this disciple also needs some time to complete the final arrangements."
Daoist You Ming's pupils suddenly contracted.
Shen Tu Ze smiled, "After all, although this disciple's first goal is to send you on your way, on top of that, your control over the Netherworld Sea is this disciple's second goal. If I want to have the best of both worlds, I will need to spend more time and effort. "
"Now, the time has come." As Shen Tu Ze spoke, he formed a seal with both his hands and brought them together in front of his chest. In the quiet room that was surrounded by black light, hundreds of black chains suddenly extended out and wrapped around Daoist You Ming's body.
Daoist You Ming let out a muffled groan. Black light also surged on his body, but the black chains that Shen Tu Ze had activated suddenly emitted a red light.
The black and red intertwined chains forcefully broke through Daoist You Ming's protective black light and wrapped around his body.
Shen Tu Ze said slowly, "This disciple has already dealt with this quiet room of yours, and has been waiting for this day. Normally, it would not be able to hide from your eyes, but in a situation where you are suffering from the backlash of the Netherworld Sea and can't even take care of yourself, you might not have noticed it."
Daoist You Ming was expressionless. "You still have a lot to learn." Light and shadow flickered in his eyes, and the calamity of the Netherworld Sea appeared again. The chains that were binding his body started to tremble continuously, and looked like they were about to break.
Daoist You Ming was already suffering from the backlash of the Netherworld Sea. Activating it again caused his injuries to worsen. Even if he could escape, he would probably lose his life later on. However, he naturally had to give it his all.
Shen Tu Ze shook his head. "Master, it's useless. For so many years, other than cultivating to increase my strength, I have only done two things. The first is to disguise myself, and the second is to observe. Although I am your disciple, I understand you more than you understand me."
He changed his seal again, then pointed at Daoist You Ming in the air. "Your reaction was all within my expectations. When you activated the Netherworld Sea again, the backlash you suffered was even more severe, and your injuries were even more severe. This was actually more beneficial to me."
A broken stone appeared in Shen Tu Ze's hands, and it flickered with a ferocious red light. It was actually a broken stone similar to the Heavenly Disaster Remnant Stone that was kept in the Ancient Immortal World.
Seeing this Heavenly Disaster Remnant Stone, Daoist You Ming's expression finally changed slightly. "You actually obtained a Heavenly Disaster Remnant Stone and hid it?!"
Shen Tu Ze smiled slightly. "Otherwise, how would I dare to come and greet you, Master?" As he pointed his finger, the red light on the Heavenly Disaster Remnant Stone turned into a black light, and pierced towards Daoist You Ming's forehead.
Daoist You Ming wanted to struggle and dodge, but he was bound by the chains. He could only watch as the black light pierced into his forehead.
In the next moment, the image of the calamity of the Netherworld Sea in Daoist You Ming's eyes instantly disappeared, and the chains that bound his body became tighter and tighter, penetrating deep into his Primordial Spirit.
Shen Tu Ze nodded. "It's all thanks to you activating the Netherworld Sea again, which made your body even weaker. In this way, I was able to obtain the best outcome that I had expected, which was to send you on your way and obtain the power to control the Netherworld Sea. I could also refine you into my clone. Although the last part would take a lot of time, the gains far outweigh the returns."
Hearing this, even Daoist You Ming felt restless and furious. However, the more restless he was, the faster the chains on his body corroded him. This was Shen Tu Ze's original intention.
Daoist You Ming hissed, "His Majesty won't forgive a brat who only cares about the benefits in front of him. Without His Majesty and me blocking in front of you, do you think you can escape from the pursuit of Xuanmen Tianzong and Taixu Temple? You're digging your own grave! "
Shen Tu Ze shook his head. "In order to buy time for preparations, I've already said enough nonsense. Could it be that Master thinks that I like to see you at the end of your rope, or that I want to show off the superiority of a victor in front of you, or that I want to torture you to repay you for teaching me back then when I was on the brink of death and had nightmares every night?"
Shen Tu Ze let out a soft laugh and walked forward. He placed his palm on the head of Daoist You Ming, who could not move at all. Daoist You Ming immediately felt his vision darken, and the last thing he heard was, "I won't do that. A long night is fraught with trouble. Who knows if you have a trump card that even I don't know about? Therefore, I only hope that I can send you on your way safely. That's enough. "
"Then, Master, have a safe journey."
