Yan Zhaoge opened the Shadow Shrinking Pouches of Xin Dongping and Yuan Tian respectively.
As the top experts in the world, the private properties of these two big shots were naturally quite rich.
However, Yan Zhaoge's eyes only swept past most of them.
It was not that there were no good things, rare things, precious things, but they could all be slowly sorted out later on. What Yan Zhaoge was currently inspecting were the things that could possibly be traded between Xin Dongping and Yuan Tian.
It was most likely a treasure related to the Nine Hells and Hell.
Yuan Tian traveled alone. As a Martial Saint, he had a rich family fortune. He traveled all over the world, ventured into the depths of the earth, and collected many precious treasures and resources.
However, comparatively speaking, no matter how deep his foundation was, it would still be unable to compare to Sacred Ground level powers like Broad Creed Mountain and the Sacred Sun Clan.
But even so, Yuan Tian's net worth was richer than Xin Dongping's.
While Xin Dongping was one of Broad Creed Mountain's few longtime Elders, there was also a limit to how much of Broad Creed Mountain's resources he could use. While Broad Creed Mountain had many resources, they were not Xin Dongping's private property.
Broad Creed Mountain's wealth and Xin Dongping's personal wealth were two different things.
Of course, the prerequisite for this comparison was that it only counted the resources that Xin Dongping could draw from within Broad Creed Mountain.
And Xin Dongping had another identity, the master of the Decimating Abyss.
In the current Eight Extremities World, he was very likely the person closest to the Nine Underworlds.
What exactly did Xin Dongping reap from the Nine Underworlds and Hell, this was very hard to say.
If he had a bargaining chip to attract the Devil Saint Yuan Tian, Yan Zhaoge believed that it originated from here.
"Heavenly Lake Jade, it shouldn't be …"
"The Tranquil Reversal Divine Medicine … I don't think so …"
"The Ghost Body Congealed Paste shouldn't be either …"
Carefully inspecting, Yan Zhaoge's gaze came to rest on something within Xin Dongping's Shadow Shrinking Pouch after a moment, "Nine Underworlds Dark Soil …"
After pondering for a moment, Yan Zhaoge checked Yuan Tian's Shadow Shrinking Pouch once more, very quickly discovering his target this time.
Within his palm were a few black spheres the size of pearls. After appraising them for a moment, Yan Zhaoge took out one of them and infused his aura-qi within.
Yan Zhaoge closed his eyes, calming his mind as numerous streams of qi vaguely circulated before him, formless and formless.
Carefully savoring it, it actually seemed to contain some profound profundities of the impermanence of all the elements.
However, this logic seemed to have been twisted, revealing a sense of lawlessness.
Although it was distorted, it had its own unique and profound concept.
Yan Zhaoge opened his eyes, staring at the small black ball within his palm.
Or, it would be more appropriate to call them tree seeds.
"It is indeed the seed of the Impermanent Devil Tree," Yan Zhaoge looked at that Nine Underworlds Dark Soil once more.
It was said to be soil, but it was more like a cloud and mist, and the aura of the Nine Underworlds was faintly emitted from it. It was breathtaking.
Once the Nine Underworld Soil left the Nine Underworlds, it would undergo a change. There would no longer be a hundred percent confidence in nurturing the Anicca Demon Seed and growing it into an Anicca Demon Tree.
Before the Great Calamity, the Impermanent Devil Sect had possessed a unique treasure known as the Impermanent Devil Pool, which could allow the dark soil of the Nine Underworlds to not undergo any changes after leaving the Nine Underworlds, maintaining its original effects for a long period of time. That was how they were able to nurture the Impermanent Devil Tree without relying on the Nine Underworlds.
However, following the Great Calamity, the Impermanent Demonic Pool had long since turned into nothingness, and the Impermanent Demonic Tree had also gone extinct in the human world.
Yan Zhaoge looked at the Impermanent Devil Seed, then at that Nine Underworlds Dark Soil which had already somewhat mutated, concentrating on his thoughts.
"While the Earth Domain has mutated, becoming a death ground, 'Hell', it is at the end of the day not the true Nine Underworlds." Yan Zhaoge stroked his lower chin, "The Nine Underworlds have not truly descended into the Eight Extremities World; where did this Xin Dongping get the Nine Underworlds Dark Soil from?"
As he walked towards Water Ridge Peak, the pondering Yan Zhaoge suddenly halted.
Following behind him, Ah Hu looked stunned at his Young Master.
Yan Zhaoge's gaze flickered as he raised his head to look at the sky, where the Clear Qi Grand Formation had already gradually concealed itself within space once more.
There was only the Water Ridge Peak of the back mountain where, under Yan Zhaoge's control, the power of the formation descended unceasingly, helping Fang Zhun to suppress the Devilish Domain Grand Formation.
The black Devilish Domain Grand Formation gradually withered.
The black devilish qi that surged to the heavens earlier had enveloped the entire Water Ridge Peak, even expanding towards the surrounding areas.
Now, it had already been retracted to the base of the Water Ridge Peak. Water Ridge Peak saw the light of day once more, the dense devilish qi only making its final struggle in the region of the Heaven Sealing Gorge.
Yan Zhaoge raised his head to look at the empty sky, radiance flickering within his left eye.
Guided by his power, numerous majestic, dazzling spirit patterns appeared within the sky once more.
Yan Zhaoge's gaze shifted between the Clear Qi Grand Formation above his head and the domain of devilish qi beneath the Water Ridge Peak before him, finally falling on the devilish mark on the back of his left hand.
After a while, Yan Zhaoge retracted his thoughts, striding forward once more, continuing towards Water Ridge Peak.
Having arrived at the Heaven Sealing Gorge, entering the domain of devilish qi, arriving at its central region, he saw a tall golden pagoda, currently already not even five metres tall.
At the top of the pagoda, Fang Zhun sat in the meditative position, his face slightly pale, but his expression was calm and peaceful, no different from usual.
Below the tall golden pagoda, Feng Yunsheng held her black sabre as she stood there. Seeing Yan Zhaoge appear, an expression of relief appeared on her face.
Yan Zhaoge nodded towards her, and she nodded in return.
"Zhaoge, since you have appeared here, that means that the situation outside has already been settled?" A hint of a smile appeared on Fang Zhun's thin face.
Yan Zhaoge bowed towards him, "Yes, second apprentice-uncle. Xin Dongping and the Devil Saint Yuan Tian have already been slain."
"The Decimating Abyss martial practitioners who invaded our clan, including a few late Essence Talisman Martial Grandmasters, have all been exterminated. Now, we are in the midst of the final cleanup."
Saying thus, Yan Zhaoge paused for a moment before continuing, "Second apprentice-uncle … eldest apprentice-uncle, he, has perished."
Hearing his words, the always calm and composed Fang Zhun abruptly stared wide-eyed.
Yan Zhaoge swore that this was the first time ever since he had known Fang Zhun that he had seen this First Seat of Broad Creed Mountain's Assignment Hall lose his composure like this.
Fang Zhun lowered his head. When he raised it again, his face was even gloomier, but his expression had already returned to normal, "Contact our fellow disciples guarding outside, in case the Sacred Sun Clan and the Heavenly Thunder Hall make use of this chance to invade."
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "I think so too. I just happen to have an idea that I would like to discuss with second apprentice-uncle, related to this Devilish Domain Grand Formation before us."
"Oh?" Fang Zhun asked curiously, "Could it be that you want to preserve this formation?"
By the side, Ah Hu and Feng Yunsheng also looked curiously at Yan Zhaoge.
Yan Zhaoge said solemnly, "While it is preserving it, it is not preserving this Devilish Domain Grand Formation. Instead, it is being modified, thus serving some other purpose."
"I still haven't had the time to tell my father and the other Elders about it. Having hurried over here, I would like to ask second apprentice-uncle to bear with it for a period of time. If the Sacred Sun Clan and the others don't come, we will put an end to it. If they really invade, our clan will also have to make some preparations. After all, it is still uncertain when Grand Master will be able to leave seclusion."
Fang Zhun met Yan Zhaoge's gaze silently, saying after a while, "Alright, I will temporarily maintain this place as it is. You invite junior apprentice-brother Yan and the others over to peruse your plan together."
Yan Zhaoge said, "That is precisely my intention. I will have to trouble second apprentice-uncle."
