With Chu Xiu's current strength and status, this High Heaven Sect Elder running over and questioning him in such a tone was simply courting death.
It was true that Chu Xiu wanted to join forces with High Heaven Sect, but it didn't mean that he had to lower his voice to High Heaven Sect. After all, the entire High Heaven Sect still owed him a favor.
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two sides had become tense, Elder Wu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Official Chu, please calm down. Elder Lin didn't mean that. He was just worried about Wushuang."
Chu Xiu said indifferently, "It's not like you don't know the situation of the Daluo Divine Palace. What's the use of being anxious?
Xuanyuan Wushuang hasn't come out yet, so I'm afraid he won't be able to come out.
Your High Heaven Sect should have left some kind of mark on Xuanyuan Wushuang. Now that you've returned to High Heaven Sect, maybe you've already found the answer. "
Hearing Chu Xiu's words, Elder Wu and the others had no choice but to leave.
Even without mentioning the fact that their High Heaven Sect still owed Chu Xiu a favour, Chu Xiu had already reached the Martial Immortal Realm and was no longer someone who could be easily questioned.
Martial Immortals and non-Martial Immortals were two different levels of existence.
After exchanging greetings, the group left the Central Province.
On the way, when there was no one else around, Mei Qinglian finally released her curiosity and asked Chu Xiu and Wei Shuya.
After Chu Xiu briefly told everyone about Ning Xuanji, it was obvious that they couldn't accept that the legendary Immortal Ning Xuanji had such a personality.
Mei Qinglian couldn't help but shake her head and sigh, "Sure enough, legends can't be trusted. Things from 500 years ago have long changed."
Lu Jianghe said disdainfully, "The Righteous Path can't produce anyone at all. That's why they put Ning Xuanji on such a high pedestal. Of course, in other words, the strongest chosen according to their standards doesn't exist at all."
Chenqing Di shook his head regretfully after hearing this. "What a miscalculation. If I had known that Immortal Ning Xuanji was in the Daluo Divine Palace, I would have entered earlier."
Chu Xiu also asked curiously, "Alliance Master Chen, I didn't see you in the hinterland of the Central Province. What did you do after entering the Central Province?"
Chenqing Di spread out his hands and said, "I just killed demonic ghosts.
These Fey Ghosts weren't hard to kill, but they were hard to deal with. After killing them, I refined their soul crystals. After all, the power of my Primordial Spirit was also a weakness.
As an outsider, I didn't want to enter the Daluo Divine Palace to cultivate, so there was no point in keeping the soul crystals.
But who would have thought that the demonic ghosts seemed to have their eyes on me? They followed me wherever I went, and the more I killed, the stronger they became. I've been killing demonic ghosts and refining soul crystals all this time.
But then again, this really is a good place. The power of my spirit has skyrocketed several times over. "
Chu Xiu was a little speechless after listening to Chenqing Di. He finally knew what was going on.
Chenqing Di was the same as him. He refined the demonic ghosts' soul crystals and ended up being haunted by them.
The difference was that Chu Xiu didn't continue refining the soul crystals after learning of the news, while Chenqing Di kept refining them, which led to him being besieged by the demonic ghosts.
Chu Xiu turned his gaze to Wei Shuya and asked, "Elder Wei, what happened back then? Were you sucked into that place as soon as you entered the Central Province?"
Wei Shuya smiled bitterly. "More or less. I'd just finished off a few demonic ghosts when I noticed a vortex appearing around me.
I thought it was the work of the demonic ghosts, but I didn't expect it to be spatial materialization.
After being sucked into the City of Tragic Deaths, I was immediately besieged by the demonic ghosts and fell into an illusion. If it weren't for Ning Xuanji's voice passing through the illusion and reminding me, I would have been in deep trouble this time. "
Wei Shuya had mixed feelings about being saved by a great enemy of the Kunlun Devil Cult.
However, it was Lu Jianghe who curled his lips. This matter was caused by that old fellow Ning Xuanji in the first place. The main culprit was him.
Wei Shuya changed the topic and said, "However, this matter is also an opportunity. The soul crystals of the demonic ghosts not only contain the power of their souls, but they also contain extremely pure vitality. After I survived the illusion, the power in the soul crystals of the demonic ghosts was absorbed into my body without the slightest hindrance. I stepped into the Martial Immortal realm in one fell swoop. "
Wei Shuya made it sound easy, but in fact, he himself knew the dangers involved.
With Wei Shuya's tenacity, he wouldn't be afraid if it was a single demonic ghost. However, it was an illusion formed by dozens of demonic ghosts. Its power was astonishingly powerful.
Even with Wei Shuya's current state of mind, he was almost lost in it. He only managed to survive by sheer willpower.
After returning to the Southern Barbaric Land, everyone had to discuss matters. Chenqing Di went into closed-door training.
He wasn't a blind person. Although he had a good relationship with Chu Xiu and the others, he wasn't Chu Xiu's subordinate after all. It was better not to know some of the secrets of the Kunlun Devil Cult.
After Chenqing Di left, Chu Xiu gathered everyone and told them about the Elysium.
If it was before, everyone would definitely think that Chu Xiu was crazy when they heard that Chu Xiu was going to fight with the Elysium.
But now, they thought that it was normal, because the strength of Chu Xiu's subordinates had far surpassed that of the Elysium. The Kunlun Devil Cult could look down on the other nine Divine Generals of the Elysium. The only troublesome one was Jun Wushen, the unknown master of the Elysium.
Wei Shuya stroked the beard on his chin and muttered, "How confident are you?"
Chu Xiu said in a deep voice, "Excluding Jun Wushen, 100%! But if Jun Wushen is included, to be honest, I'm not sure either.
Apart from the battle with Zhong Shenxiu, Jun Wushen hasn't really revealed his strength.
But I can see that his aura isn't any weaker than Ye Weikong's, so he's at least a Seventh Heaven Martial Immortal.
Xue Wuli also said that the Seven Nailing Arrows that Jun Wushen used to plot against me was something he found at the last minute and learned in a very short period of time.
Jun Wushen's strength is definitely not weak to be able to master a Divine Power so easily.
However, this is also our best chance.
In the formation, I've already used the Six Paths of Reincarnation Bracelet to pull his soul into the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
But his soul was exhausted too much, so I wasn't able to completely defeat him.
If we miss this chance, who knows how long we'll have to wait to seriously injure a Seventh Heaven Martial Immortal expert.
We can't miss this chance! "
Hearing Chu Xiu's words, everyone present nodded their heads.
Even though there were risks in the plan, they were already used to it. When did Chu Xiu's plan not have risks? But in the end, they still won.
At that moment, Chu Xiu took out the special Soul Crystals he obtained from the City of the Wronged and distributed them to everyone.
"These special Soul Crystals contain extremely pure energy. After refining them, there won't be any backlash or burden. Everyone, pick out the attributes that suit you and refine them. Try to push your strength to the peak before attacking the Heavenly Gates. "
Among the people present, Wei Shuya was already a Martial Immortal. Now, he only needed to stabilize his foundation of power.
Shang Tianliang also obtained a lot of benefits this time. He was only a step away from becoming a Martial Immortal. Whether or not he could make a breakthrough would depend on luck.
Lu Jiang He also gained a lot. Previously, in the City of the Wronged, he saw the transformation of the rules of power and had an epiphany, allowing him to step into the Half-Step Martial Immortal realm.
As for Mei Qinglian and Lu Fengxian, it wouldn't be a problem for them to push their foundation of power forward with the Soul Crystals. As for whether or not they could take advantage of the opportunity to step into the Half-Step Martial Immortal realm, that was an unknown.
Chu Wuji could also use the Soul Crystals to step into the next realm. Furthermore, Chu Wuji's foundation of power was extremely solid, so he wouldn't have to worry about the instability of his realm after making a breakthrough.
After the discussion, everyone went into closed-door training. They wanted to push their strength to the next level before attacking the Heavenly Gates.
Chu Xiu didn't have to worry about that.
He had already used the power of the Daluo Divine Palace to stabilize his realm. Now, he only needed to plan out the details of the attack on the Heavenly Gates.
Inside the secret chamber, Chu Xiu summoned his inner demon.
The inner demon hadn't appeared in the Central Plains because it was useless against the Demonic Ghosts.
The Demonic Ghosts weren't humans, so the inner demon couldn't invade their minds. Besides, things without intelligence would be useless even if the inner demon managed to invade their minds.
But this time, when the inner demon appeared again, it had a solemn look on its face. It sat cross-legged in Chu Xiu's mind as if it was thinking about something.
Seeing the inner demon like that, Chu Xiu couldn't help but ask, "Are you thinking about life?"
The inner demon actually nodded when it heard Chu Xiu's question.
"You're not human, so why are you thinking about life?"
The inner demon retorted, "What human? I can think and I have the memories of a human. Apart from the fact that I don't have a body, what's the difference between me and a human?
The Demonic Ghosts from the Daluo Divine Palace gave me an idea.
They don't have bodies, but through the power of laws, they can reconstruct their bodies, turning from human to Demonic Ghosts, and then from Demonic Ghosts back to human.
Since that's the case, they can do it, but why can't I?
Didn't you say before that you wanted to find a perfect body for me to possess?
But now, I've suddenly changed my mind. An outsider's body is, in the end, an outsider's body. My own body is the most suitable for me.
How about we make a deal? Why don't you help me reconstruct my body?
I know that you've already grasped the Demonic Path of Creation. Furthermore, you've become a Martial Immortal and grasped the power of laws. To you, that is not something impossible. "
Chu Xiu rubbed his chin. After pondering for a moment, he said, "You're quite creative. However, if that's the case, you'll have to wait for a very long time. After all, although I am able to control the Demonic Path of Creation and the power of laws, I do not have complete control over them. "
The inner demon nodded and said, "I know that. It doesn't matter. I've already waited for eight hundred years. What's there to wait for? That said, if you're able to enter the Primitive Demon Cave again and bring out another portion of my power, I reckon I'll be even stronger. "
Chu Xiu sneered, "That place is not that easy to enter. Even if you have the strength, you'll still have to wait for the right opportunity. Enough with the superfluous words. Help me contact Xue Wuli. I want to know the current situation of the Heavenly Gates. "
