"The so-called opportunity that you speak of."
Naturally, Ning Yue would not be convinced by Immortal Hongling. He stared at her and asked calmly, "What exactly is it?"
"Heavenly Immortal Laws!"
Immortal Hongling's gaze involuntarily shifted to the demonic human and eight-legged demonic beast at the side. She said in a deep voice, "If I'm not wrong, a palace in the deepest part of the Great Dao Valley should be filled with people right now."
"Hmm?"
Ning Yue frowned. He vaguely felt that Immortal Hongling was not as simple as she seemed on the surface.
Although Immortal Hongling was trying her best to rope him in, it had to be said that this move of hers was a retreat in order to advance.
At that thought, Ning Yue's brows unfurrowed.
If Immortal Hongling was facing someone else, perhaps this move would be effective.
Unfortunately, she was facing Ning Yue. If she used this move again, it was destined to be fruitless.
"Actually, there's no conflict of interest between us, nor do we have any enmity between us. We can totally work together."
When she saw Ning Yue's expression, Immortal Hongling seemed to have grasped some key point and said again, "When the time comes, I only want 10% of the Heavenly Immortal Laws. The remaining 90% will belong to you!"
"Do you think that I can't obtain those Heavenly Immortal Laws by myself?"
Ning Yue did not answer Immortal Hongling's question. Instead, he asked her a question.
Thump!
Immortal Hongling's heart skipped a beat when she heard Ning Yue's question.
At that moment, she was already certain that Ning Yue did not intend to keep her.
Her expression was dark and uncertain. Finally, she gritted her teeth and said, "I know another secret!"
Ning Yue looked at Immortal Hongling with a faint smile but did not say anything.
Ning Yue's expression calmed Immortal Hongling down a little.
No matter what, as long as Ning Yue gave her a chance to continue speaking, she might be able to survive.
After sorting out her thoughts, Immortal Hongling said in a deep voice, "Actually, everyone in the Great Dao Valley is just a Gu worm!"
"Gu worm?"
Ning Yue's heart skipped a beat, but he said calmly, "Tell me about it."
Ning Yue naturally knew what Gu worms meant.
Some places would drive all kinds of Gu worms to one place and let them kill each other.
And the result of this kind of cannibalism would be the final Gu King.
When he entered the Great Dao Valley, Ning Yue had the same thought.
But in the end, he rejected this thought in his heart.
After all, there were martial artists from the Sacred Divine Palace, the Primeval Demon Sect, the Ancient Demon Sect, the Heaven Secrets Sect, and many other powerful forces in the Great Dao Valley.
Who had the guts to treat them as Gu worms?
"Actually, I only heard about this by chance."
In order to survive, Immortal Hongling had no choice but to reveal all the secrets she knew.
It turned out that within the Dao Valley, there were a total of several types of fortuitous opportunities.
The weakest was the Great Dao Energy in the middle. Naturally, those truly strong cultivators would disdain such opportunities.
The slightly stronger fortuitous opportunities were located in the Great Dao Palace in the deepest part of the Great Dao Valley.
This was because there was a considerable amount of Heaven Immortal Laws in the Great Dao Palace.
Of course, the most tempting opportunity was in the passageway that led to the higher planes.
That passage was called the Path to Heaven!
It was rumored that there were not only Xuan Immortal Laws in the Path to Heaven, but also the corpses of Xuan Immortals!
The Path to Heaven, as its name suggested, was a path from a low-level plane to a high-level plane.
"What does this have to do with raising Gu worms?"
Ning Yue frowned because Immortal Hongling did not explain the specific reason.
She glanced at Ning Yue and said solemnly, "The Path to Heaven only allows martial artists below the Xuan Immortal level to enter. As for those who have reached the Xuan Immortal level, they are not allowed to enter!
"If I'm not wrong, there should be several powerful forces at the end of the Path to Heaven, and the weakest among them is a half-step Xuan Immortal!"
Gasp!
Hearing Immortal Hongling's explanation, the human demon and the eight-legged demonic beast gasped.
They did not expect such a secret to exist.
Since there were Xuan Immortals guarding the end of the Path to Heaven, why did they risk their lives to enter the Path to Heaven?
One must know that even if they obtained a great opportunity, they would not be a match for Xuan Immortals.
"We have no other choice."
As if sensing the confusion in the human demon and the eight-legged demonic beast, Immortal Hongling continued, "Those Xuan Immortal 'lords' have already taken control of the Immortal Spirit Realm. If we want to return to a high-level plane, we can only go through the Path to Heaven!
"If you want to stay in the Immortal Spirit Realm for the rest of your life, you naturally do not need to participate."
At this time, the human demon and the eight-legged demonic beast finally understood.
Who did not want to enter a high-level plane?
Staying in the Immortal Spirit Realm meant that they would never be able to break through to a higher level.
Even Heaven Immortals had a limited lifespan.
Immortal Hongling was right. Unless they wanted to stay in the Immortal Spirit Realm for the rest of their lives, most people would come to the Great Dao Valley.
"I want to know which forces the Xuan Immortals at the other end of the Path to Heaven are from."
Ning Yue stared into Immortal Hongling's eyes and asked.
Ning Yue could almost be sure that Immortal Hongling was not lying to him.
Since Immortal Hongling was not lying to him, then he had to clarify some things. At the very least, he had to know which forces the experts guarding the other end of the Path to Heaven were from.
"Sacred Divine Palace, Primordial Demon Sect, Ancient Demon Sect, Fallen Spirits Sect … and Heaven Secrets Sect!"
Immortal Hongling did not dare to hide anything and answered honestly.
"You mean to say that all of you have been abandoned?" Ning Yue frowned.
Whether it was Immortal Hongling or the peerless geniuses like the Demonic Tuo Divine Son, they were all the pillars of these forces.
Even though the Sacred Divine Palace and the other sects were huge forces that ruled over several territories, losing one or even several peerless geniuses was still painful.
"Why do you think the Sacred Divine Palace and the other sects would scheme against their own peerless geniuses? Don't they feel heartache? "Immortal Hongling asked.
However, before Ning Yue could answer, Immortal Hongling explained, "Apart from the Heaven Secrets Sect, the strongest experts of these forces are all half-step Xuan Immortals."
"And the most crucial point is that their lifespans are reaching the limit. That's why they are willing to take the risk and sacrifice the peerless geniuses of their sects to obtain some Xuan Immortal Laws from the Path to Heaven!"
"Because to them, one Xuan Immortal Law can allow them to live for another ten thousand years!"
After saying this, Immortal Hongling did not speak further. Instead, she quietly waited for Ning Yue's decision.
If Ning Yue still chose to kill her, then she could only fight back.
But if Ning Yue chose to keep her, then her persuasion would become invaluable.
"You've convinced me, so I'll keep you by my side for the time being. However, if you have the slightest thought of resisting, I'll kill you instantly!"
