"How do you know so much?" Xiao Lingyu asked, puzzled.
"Don't worry, I'm not the one with his soul consciousness. If I were, I wouldn't be telling you this," the person said with a smile.
"Now that the seal has been broken, won't the experts who sealed him before ask about this?" Xiao Lingyu asked again.
"Most of the experts who sealed him before have already ascended to the God Realm. However, there will definitely be people who will ask about this. The Demon Realm's Supremacy level experts probably already know about this, and someone will come to check it out personally. He can also think of this, so he scattered his life essence to deceive the Demon Realm's experts who will come to check and buy time for him to recover completely. Actually, we all have another purpose, which is to pretend to be genuine and act as shields for his soul consciousness, "the person explained.
"If that's the case, aren't we all in danger? Once those Demon Realm's experts discover us, they will definitely kill us," Xiao Lingyu said with a frown.
"Hehe, unless you're unlucky enough to meet a Demon Supremacy, otherwise, even a peak late-stage Demon Emperor won't be able to see that we have his life imprint on us." The person shook his head and laughed.
The Demon Realm was too big, and the number of Demon Supremacies was pitifully small. Moreover, even a Demon Supremacy would find it difficult to carefully search the entire Demon Realm.
"But if we're too scattered, how can we accumulate more than half of his life essence in a mere million years?" Xiao Lingyu was a little worried.
"It's a little difficult, but for cultivators like us, as long as we exist in the same continent, we can sense each other's existence. As long as we keep searching in various continents, a million years may not be enough. If we can find the one with his soul consciousness earlier, and we have more of his life essence in our bodies, even if we don't have more than half of his life essence, we can still destroy him, "the person said with confidence.
"You should be the only one who knows about this situation, right?" Xiao Lingyu asked again.
"Not necessarily. Cultivators on the Blood Moon Continent and the Devil Realm Continent near the Blood Moon Continent, as well as many Mystical Demons and Devil Monarchs, know a little about the legends of the Blood Moon Continent. In addition, there are related records in some ancient books. Cultivators like us who have his life essence can make a rough guess as long as we investigate carefully. Therefore, we have to kill as many of them as possible before they find out. We have to plunder the life essence of the Demon Sovereign as much as possible so that we can have more courage and capital to face the person with the Demon Sovereign's soul consciousness, "the person said calmly.
Xiao Lingyu just nodded silently, but she was very depressed in her heart. She entered the Blood Moon Tower to cultivate. Although she finally succeeded in advancing to the Chaotic Void Refining Stage, she didn't expect that she would have such a big burden. The person in front of her said it was easy and skillful, but if he wanted to kill a cultivator with the soul consciousness of the Demon Venerable, he would definitely die.
"Actually, all of us were recently invaded by the life imprint of the Demon Sovereign. Everyone is now scattered across the Devil Realm Continents not far from the Blood Moon Continent. Now is the best time for us to launch a sneak attack on others and plunder the life essence of the Demon Sovereign," the person continued.
"But now that the teleportation formation of the Northern Ocean Continent has been sealed, we can't leave. How can we plunder?" Xiao Lingyu said helplessly.
"Hehe, it's still early. Our current mission is not to plunder, but to protect ourselves. Now, not only the teleportation formation of the Northern Ocean Continent has been sealed, but also the continents near the Blood Moon Continent. This must be the work of the top experts of the Devil Realm. Their goal is to find the Demon Venerable's soul consciousness, "the person said with a smile.
"If the Demon Venerable's soul consciousness is found and destroyed, what will we do?" Xiao Lingyu asked again.
"If his soul consciousness is destroyed, the life imprint he left on us will be ownerless. It will be the best tonic for us! However, his soul consciousness is also at the level of the Demon Venerable. Moreover, with his cultivation back then, even the current Demon Venerable will have a hard time finding him. It is basically impossible to count on the experts of the Devil Realm to destroy the Demon Venerable's soul consciousness, "the person said with a pessimistic tone.
At this point, the two of them fell silent for a while.
After thinking carefully for a while, Xiao Lingyu suddenly said, "You said that as long as we are in the same Devil Realm Continent, we will be able to sense each other's presence. How do you do that?"
The person said, "I can sense it naturally. I don't need any spells or incantations."
Xiao Lingyu frowned and asked, "Then why didn't I sense your presence before?"
The person said with a smile, "Because your cultivation level is not as high as mine. I can sense you, but you can't sense me. If there is one or more people with a higher cultivation level than us who also have the Demon Venerable's life imprint and are also in the Northern Ocean Continent, then we won't be able to sense his presence, but he can easily find us."
Xiao Lingyu's heart tightened when she heard this.
"Hehe, don't worry. If there really is someone with a higher cultivation level than us in the Northern Ocean Continent, why would the two of us be chatting here?" the person said with a relaxed smile.
"How long will this transportation formation be sealed?" Xiao Lingyu continued to ask.
"I don't know. After all, the Devil Realm is not like the Immortal Realm. The big shots of the Devil Realm never consider too much when they do things, nor do they consider the benefits of low-level cultivators. If they really care about this matter, then they will seal the transportation formation indefinitely until the Demon Venerable's soul consciousness is found. If they don't care about this matter, then they will reopen the transportation formation regardless of whether they find it or not." The person shook his head and said.
"If there really are experts from the Devil Realm searching everywhere, then wouldn't it be very dangerous for the two of us to be together?" Xiao Lingyu looked at the bloody light on her body and said worriedly.
"That's why I can't stay here for long. After I'm done talking with you, I have to leave." The person said, "Do you have any other questions?"
"What's your name?" Xiao Lingyu tilted her head and asked.
"Ran Kai."
After replying, the person left the secret room and the secret cave.
"He's leaving just like that?"
Xia Liang and the others had been waiting outside the secret room all this time. When they saw Ran Kai leave, they were very surprised.
"Why? Do you guys really want to fight him?" Xiao Lingyu asked with a smile.
"No, didn't he say that he wanted to work with us?" Xia Liang asked in confusion.
"If we're working together, then do we have to be together?" Xiao Lingyu asked in return. She went outside and began to repair everything that Ran Kai had destroyed.
After talking with Ran Kai for a long time, Xiao Lingyu felt the pressure on her body grow heavier. Her heart seemed to be covered by a layer of shadow.
After that, they continued to wait. After Xiao Lingyu calmed her mind, she knew that the transportation formation wouldn't be reopened for a short period of time. She began to cultivate quietly.
Intermediate and advanced curses, Soul Rending Demonic Palm, Chaos Demonic Seal …
Perhaps it was because Ran Kai's arrival had reminded everyone that there were indeed many experts in the Northern Ocean Continent. Therefore, the other members of the Heavenly Bandits became even more obedient. No one dared to say that they wanted to leave.
After waiting for another 30 years, Xiao Lingyu, who was in seclusion, suddenly opened his eyes. This was because he felt an incomparably tyrannical Devil Sense sweep through the cave and then disappear.
That Demonic Sense had only swept across Xiao Lingyu's Chaos Demonic Nascent Soul and his soul trembled. It was many times stronger than the Demonic Sense of Ran Kai, who was at the Demonic Sovereign level.
"There really are experts searching for us!" Xiao Lingyu muttered.
After another half a year, the transportation formation of the Northern Ocean Continent was finally reopened. Those experts must have searched the entire Northern Ocean Continent thoroughly.
The cultivators of the Heavenly Bandits waited at the transportation formation plaza for five days before it was their turn to be transported. After all, there were too many cultivators who were trapped in the Northern Ocean Continent and were in a hurry to leave.
Before they were transported, Xiao Lingyu saw Ran Kai. However, the two of them didn't dare to get too close. They communicated through voice transmission from afar.
"Brother Xiao, where are you going?" Ran Kai asked through voice transmission.
"Somewhere far away. The continents near the Blood Moon Continent are too dangerous," Xiao Lingyu replied honestly.
"If you go far away, how are you going to find those who have the Demonic Sovereign's life imprint? How are we going to continue working together? "Ran Kai seemed displeased.
"Hehe, don't worry. I won't go far. I'm just sending my people off," Xiao Lingyu replied with a smile.
"That's good. I believe that if we work together, we can definitely obtain a lot of the Demonic Sovereign's life essence," Ran Kai said confidently.
"When the time comes, Brother Ran will be able to kill me with the advantage of your cultivation level. Then, you'll quickly become one of the strongest cultivators in the Devil Realm," Xiao Lingyu said meaningfully.
"Haha, that's a story for the future. We don't even know if the two of us can survive until then," Ran Kai said with a laugh.
Xiao Lingyu didn't reply. If Ran Kai was telling the truth, then he had to be on guard against Ran Kai. He couldn't let this guy improve too quickly. Moreover, he had to work hard to cultivate. At the very least, he had to be strong enough to not fear Ran Kai.
Regardless of whether Ran Kai was telling the truth or not, Xiao Lingyu would rather believe him. After all, he couldn't find any loopholes in Ran Kai's words. He could only choose to believe Ran Kai.
Before they were transported, Xiao Lingyu communicated with Zhu Jin, Xia Liang, and the others. Then, he quietly watched the members of the Heavenly Bandits being transported in batches.
"We're going to the Crimson Water Continent now!"
After waiting for another half a day, it was finally Ran Kai's turn to be transported. He said a few words to Xiao Lingyu and entered the transportation formation.
After Ran Kai was transported away, Xiao Lingyu stood in place for a while. After hesitating for a while, he still lined up and entered the transportation formation. He also went to the Crimson Water Continent.
Ran Kai was waiting for Xiao Lingyu at the transportation formation square of the Crimson Water Continent. After Xiao Lingyu walked out of the transportation formation, Ran Kai transmitted his voice to him, "I've found a target. He's in Crimson Water City."
Then, the two of them entered Crimson Water City one after the other. They kept their distance from each other like strangers.
"He's here!"
