The Nine Nether Land was known as one of the most dangerous places in the Eastern Continent.
Here, steep cliffs and steep mountain paths could be seen everywhere. Not to mention ordinary people, even ordinary cultivators would not dare to walk in such a place.
Needless to say, the rugged mountain paths were not the reason why many powerhouses were in awe.
The real reason why the powerhouses on the continent were concerned about this place and told them not to come here was because a world-renowned powerhouse at the peak of the human path was living in seclusion here.
At this moment, the sun was setting in the west. The lingering charm of the setting sun shone on the mountain forest like a red glow, and it was so beautiful that it was intoxicating.
Who knew, a figure suddenly appeared on the mountain path. It was Hao Xue, the most outstanding Venerable One of this generation from the Hao family in Changzhou. He walked up the mountain as if he was flying. The beautiful scenery was imprinted in his eyes, but he was not in the mood to admire it. Instead, he looked depressed.
After a brief moment, he arrived at the peak and stopped in front of a simple straw hut.
A person slowly walked out from the side of the straw hut. It was a middle-aged scholar. His footsteps were light as if he had never cultivated martial arts before. Nevertheless, when he walked out, Hao Xue immediately asked respectfully, "Sect Master Yan, has Great Ancestor come out from closed-door cultivation?"
Yan Feicheng shook his head and said, "Hao Xue, you're too impatient."
Hao Xue blushed and answered, "Sect Master Yan, I've just received a piece of news. I haven't confirmed it yet, but it's too important, so I'd like to meet Great Ancestor as soon as possible."
Yan Feicheng was stunned for a while, and his eyes finally lit up.
As one of the 2 Vice Sect Masters of the Netherworld Sect, he knew very well that they would not specially verify normal news. Now that Hao Xue said that he wanted to confirm it, the news must be extremely important and might even be shocking.
Over the years, in his memory, the only thing that was worth a Venerable like Hao Xue personally coming to confirm was the opening of the Crying Ghost Ridge at the start of the war between the East and the West, as well as the matter related to the Northern Border Ice Palace.
Yan Feicheng's expression changed slightly as he asked, "Is there more news from the Ice Palace?"
The opening of the Ice Palace was indeed a matter of great importance. As long as there was the slightest abnormality, even if the Sect Master's cultivation was interrupted, he would still have to knock on the door and ask for instructions.
However, Hao Xue shook his head slightly. He smiled bitterly and said, "The Northern Territory Ice Palace is currently filled with experts. Nothing unexpected will happen."
Yan Feicheng heaved a sigh of relief. However, deep down, he was a little displeased.
Bing Xiaotian had invited several of the top figures in the world to gather at the Seven-colored Ice Palace. However, he did not invite Old Ancestor Yellow Spring and the two experts from the West. It was obvious that he did not want them to participate.
However, this was not something he could intervene in. At most, he could only complain a little.
"Since it's not about the Ice Palace, let's not disturb the sect master." Yan Feicheng waved his hand gently. He did not even have the patience to continue listening.
Hao Xue's expression became increasingly bitter. Before he received this news, he had also thought the same.
The entire continent seemed very peaceful at the moment, but only those who were in contact with the core powerhouses knew. Under the calm surface, there were actually surging waves.
The legendary Ice Island seemed to be showing signs of appearing in advance. At this time, any powerful force would cease all activities and wait for the sensitive time to pass.
However, the powerhouses who stood at the peak of humanity were carrying out an invisible game with Ice Island as the center.
At the moment, the Yellow Spring Sect and the two experts from the west seemed to be at a disadvantage. The three of them were most concerned about how they could participate in the game again.
As for the other matters, they were all trivial matters that were not worth mentioning at all.
However, the news that he received was so shocking that he was at a loss for what to do. That was why he rushed over here in such a hurry that he didn't even have the time to confirm.
A soft sound was suddenly heard from the straw hut. Yan Feicheng and Hao Xue were stunned at the same time, but they were soon overjoyed.
They knew that it was the signal that Old Ancestor Yellow Spring was about to come out of seclusion.
They looked at each other and immediately stopped talking, then they turned to look at the straw hut's door.
As expected, a few breaths later, the door to the straw hut was gently pushed open, and Jimo Fanshu walked out with steady steps.
Behind him, a middle-aged man with bloodshot eyes followed closely behind him.
Yan Feicheng and Hao Xue felt chills down their spines when they glanced at the man's face.
The man was the Yu family's great ancestor, who had been refined into a puppet by Gimo Fanshu. However, compared to the last time they met, the Yu family's great ancestor seemed even more sinister and strange at the moment.
His body was filled with an unbelievably powerful pressure. If an ordinary person were to look at him, even their blood and Qi would automatically boil.
It was evident that the Yu family's great ancestor's Blood Coagulation Art had reached an extremely powerful stage.
Based on Yan Feicheng's memory, even the sect master's aura was only at this level when he released his aura.
He was secretly displeased. 'Could it be that this puppet, whose body was occupied by the Blood Coagulation Art, has the strength of a powerhouse at the peak of the human path?'
"Congratulations, great ancestor," Hao Xue said excitedly, "You've finally succeeded in refining the puppet.
Gimo Fanshu nodded slightly with a faint smile on his face.
The Yu family's great ancestor suddenly took a step forward. With just one step, he crossed a distance of several meters and arrived in front of Hao Xue.
Hao Xue was horrified. He subconsciously retreated with all his might and shook his wrist to shoot out a Blood Coagulation Thread. His action was completely instinctive. After he did it, he suddenly remembered that the great ancestor could not possibly hurt him.
However, as soon as he had that thought, the Yu family's great ancestor reached out and pulled the Blood Coagulation Thread. At the same time, his body swayed and turned into a blood shadow, sticking close to Hao Xue like a maggot attached to a bone.
This time, the great ancestor was even faster. In fact, he did not give Hao Xue any time to react at all as he gently pressed his free hand on Hao Xue's chest.
Following that, the Yu family's great ancestor retreated to his original spot at the speed of light. His hands were hanging by his side, and his eyes were red as if he did not move at all.
Hao Xue and Yan Feicheng gasped at the same time. They understood what the great ancestor meant; he wanted to test the puppet's might, which had finally been refined successfully. Who knew, they were shocked by the outcome because the puppet's strength was too frightening.
A Venerable One did not even have the ability to parry his attack.
Gimo Fanshu sighed. "The Five Elements Body lives up to its reputation indeed. Together with I's Blood Coagulation Art, its might is so mighty that it's not inferior to that of I anymore."
Joy flashed across Yan Feicheng's face as he said, "Congratulations, Sect Master." He paused for a while before he continued, "With this puppet, Sir Sect Master's strength has doubled. Even if you head to the Ice Palace now, you'll be able to make Bing Xiaotian and the others fear you."
Gimo Fanshu shook his head and smiled. "Feicheng, you don't need to worry about this. Hehe, the Island of Ice is something that everyone in the world has at the peak of humanity. It's impossible for the few of them to monopolize the resources. "
Yan Feicheng and Hao Xue nodded at the same time. Even though they could not figure out Great Ancestor Yellow Spring's thoughts, they naturally believed him since he was so sure about it.
"Hao Xue, what's making you so nervous?" Gimo Fanshu asked casually.
Hao Xue composed himself and answered, "Great Ancestor, we received news that He Yiming headed to the blessed grotto-heaven and killed Zhan Xuan."
Gimo Fanshu was dumbfounded. "Killed Zhan Xuan? Did he leave the blessed grotto-heaven? "
An indescribable bitterness appeared on Hao Xue's face. "Great Ancestor, Zhan Xuan didn't leave the blessed grotto-heaven. He was killed in the Valley of a Thousand Trees."
The Yellow Spring Sect also had spies in the blessed grotto-heaven, but their identities were not enough to come into contact with the most confidential matters, so they did not know that Zhan Xuan had escaped from the blessed grotto-heaven. They only thought that Zhan Xuan had died in the Valley of a Thousand Trees after seeing the Nine Dragons Cauldron.
Gimo Fanshu's face immediately turned grave. "He Yiming can kill someone in the Valley of a Thousand Trees?"
He naturally understood how terrifying the Tree God was. Even if he did it himself, he would not be able to break through the Tree God's powerful life force, so how did He Yiming do it?
Hao Xue nodded heavily and said with a deep voice, "Great Ancestor, according to our intelligence, He Yiming used the Nine Dragons Cauldron to suppress the Tree God, which was why he was able to kill Zhan Xuan."
Yan Feicheng frowned. "There are two Nine Dragons Cauldrons in the world right now, but they're both god weapon replicas. How can they suppress the Tree God …" His eyes suddenly lit up. He took a deep breath and said, "The god weapon, the Nine Dragons Cauldron?"
The red light in Gimo Fanshu's eyes flickered, but they immediately returned to normal.
Hao Xue nodded with a bitter smile, "According to our intelligence, He Yiming used the god weapon, the Nine Dragons Cauldron, which was why he was able to suppress the Tree God."
"God weapon …" Yan Feicheng murmured. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but he did not say anything in the end.
Divine Artifact, these two words had a huge impact on him.
"Great Ancestor, Gate Master Yan, He Yiming once entered the Land of Reincarnation in the Life and Death Realm. He should have obtained this god weapon back then." Hao Xue sighed. "Once you enter the Land of Reincarnation, you won't be able to return. However, once you come out of the Land of Reincarnation, your gains will be enough to make up for everything. As for He Yiming, he is the greatest harvest in these thousands of years. "
Gimo Fanshu had been listening quietly. At this moment, he slowly shook his head and said, "The god weapon, the Nine Dragons Cauldron, shouldn't be a threat now."
