In fact, Lu Xiaotian had taken longer than he had expected. Ban Qianren had encountered many dangers on his way to the Demonic Chaos Territory from outside the Nether Demon Corpse Burial Ground. If it weren't for the fact that Ban Qianren had refined the Blue Demon Bottle for a few years and his strength had improved steadily, he wouldn't have been able to reach the Demonic Chaos Territory safely.
However, before he reached the Demonic Chaos Territory, Ban Qianren had already discovered that someone was asking about Lu Xiaotian's whereabouts.
After a series of twists and turns, Ban Qianren sold the Image Recording Pearl that Lu Xiaotian had given him.
As for what happened after that, Ban Qianren didn't care. According to Lu Xiaotian's instructions, after the Image Recording Pearl was sold in an extremely concealed manner, Ban Qianren didn't care anymore. It was as if what happened after the Image Recording Pearl had nothing to do with him.
The appearance of this Image Recording Pearl also caused a bloodbath among the low level cultivators.
In order to obtain useful information about Lu Xiaotian, Chihiro Yeh had set a high reward. However, over the years, there had been a lot of fake news, and very few were actually useful. Even if there was occasionally news about Lu Xiaotian's whereabouts, the news would often be cut off after some investigation. This wasted a lot of Chihiro Yeh's time for nothing.
Just the reward set by Chihiro Yeh alone was enough to cause a fight between Body Integration Realm experts. On an extremely remote island in the Eastern Continent, dark clouds covered the sky. More than ten battleships appeared among the dark clouds. These battleships were divided into two groups, one in the front and one in the back. The surging killing intent could almost tear apart the dark clouds in the sky.
After chasing for a while, the two sides finally clashed. A large number of corpses fell from the sky. They either fell into the Demonic Sea, or were swept by bloodthirsty Demonic Birds from the void and directly caught the corpses in their mouths.
There were also Demonic Fish leaping up from the churning waves and opening their mouths to swallow the corpses whole. Then, they swung their tails and disappeared into the waves.
This battle lasted for a few days and finally ended with the death of one side. However, a gray shadow flew out from the void and slashed the leading flying boat with a sword and saber. The cultivators on the flying boat did not last long under the saber light and were cut into pieces by the crisscrossing saber qi.
After the grey shadow killed a large number of low-level cultivators, he took out an Image Recording Pearl from one of the Sumeru Ring. Then, with a smile on his face, he soared into the air and flew away as fast as lightning while the other cultivators fled in panic.
"Nether Devil Corpse Burial Ground?" After a few months, the Image Recording Pearl landed in the hands of a middle-aged man with slightly white sideburns.
"That brat sure knows how to pick a place. As a mere human, he actually stayed in such a place filled with evil for so many years. No wonder there was no news of him at all."
Chihiro Yeh fiddled with the Image Recording Pearl in his hand, watching the battle between Lu Xiaotian and Ming E in the Image Recording Pearl with a playful expression.
"Senior, the Nether Demon Corpse Burial Ground is extremely dangerous. Evil Demonic Qi and gloomy Ghost Qi cover the sky. Lu Xiaotian would go there? This Image Recording Pearl is filled with the power of lightning everywhere. It might not correspond to the Nether Demon Corpse Burial Ground. Could there be some other mystery behind this matter? Lu Xiaotian might have gone somewhere else. "The grey-robed man respectfully said to Chihiro Yeh.
Chihiro Yeh did not elaborate on the grey-robed man's doubts. Instead, he asked with a smile, "Do you know the Buddhist monk who fought with Lu Xiaotian?"
"Junior has already investigated this person. He is the Buddhist Sect's Zen Master Ming E. During the battle at Blue Mirror Lake, he was severely injured by Lu Xiaotian. Later, he was healed by an expert of the Buddhist Sect and his strength increased greatly. In less than a few hundred years, he was conferred the title of Zen Master. It is said that he is only a hair's breadth away from the late Body Integration Stage. His lightning techniques are unpredictable, his temperament is violent, and he is addicted to battle." The grey-robed man outlined Ming E's origins with just a few words. "After the battle at Blue Mirror Lake, if Lu Xiaotian had not hidden in the Chaotic Demon Region, he would not have been able to escape the Buddhist Sect's methods."
"Judging from the aura in the Image Recording Pearl, Ming E is already at the late Body Integration Stage. He is already an expert at the level of a Buddhist Sect master. He fought with Ming E. It is most likely related to a rumor about the Nether Demon Corpse Burial Ground. It is normal that you do not know the reason. "Chihiro Yeh shook his head. "Alright, you can leave now."
The grey-robed man scratched his head. He did not know what Chihiro Yeh meant. However, since Chihiro Yeh told him to leave, he did not dare to say anything.
Everyone knew about the enmity between Lu Xiaotian and the Buddhist Sect at Blue Mirror Lake. However, even ordinary Body Integration Stage experts might not know about Buddha Shiqing Lei's death at the Soul Sinking Land.
As an old monster at the Mahayana Realm, Chihiro Yeh naturally knew some secrets that Body Integration Stage cultivators could not compare to.
"Buddha Shiqing Lei. That little bald donkey Ming E just so happens to be a lightning-type cultivator. It seems that Ming E has obtained quite a lot of benefits from Buddha Shiqing Lei's place of inheritance. Since Buddha Shiqing Lei left his inheritance there, it makes sense that Lu Xiaotian would be able to stay in the Soul Sinking Land to cultivate. This kid really knows how to hide. "
The eyes of Chihiro Yeh's main body flickered. "This Image Recording Pearl, however, is only a fragment. It is also very strange. Its origins cannot be verified. If it is the work of someone else, then this kid can only blame his bad luck. But what if it is that kid's handiwork? "
With Chihiro Yeh's shrewdness, it was inevitable that he would have a lot of guesses. However, the fact that the Icefeather Luan Phoenix had used the Nine Palace Heavenly Yin Profound Ghost Formation to trap and kill Buddha Shiqing Lei in the Soul Sinking Land was also a secret. Outsiders only knew that Buddha Shiqing Lei and Demon Monarch Heavenspan had a great battle in the Soul Sinking Land. Although Demon Monarch Heavenspan had killed Buddha Shiqing Lei, he had also suffered a calamity. How could they know the exact details of the battle?
Even Chihiro Yeh did not know the details. Although there were rumors about the Nine Palace Heavenly Yin Profound Ghost Formation, he did not know the details. Moreover, in recent years, there had been rumors that Buddhist Sect monks had appeared in the Nether Demon Corpse Burial Grounds. Even the Icefeather Luan Phoenix, the culprit, did not dare to rashly enter the Nether Demon Corpse Burial Grounds to retrieve Demon Monarch Heavenspan's head. Chihiro Yeh also did not want to rashly provoke the Pearl Buddhist Sect.
With the existence of the Pearl Buddhist Sect, Chihiro Yeh's suspicion of Lu Xiaotian quickly shifted to fear of the Buddhist Sect.
"The biggest obstacle of this trip is not Lu Xiaotian. Even if Ming E, that little bald donkey, has reached the late Body Integration Stage, he might not be able to do anything to Lu Xiaotian. If Lu Xiaotian is really hiding in Buddha Shiqing Lei's place of inheritance, it will be a very troublesome matter. "
Thinking up to here, Chihiro Yeh's expression turned gloomy. In order to hunt down Lu Xiaotian, not only had he spent thousands of years, but he had also paid a heavy price. A mere Body Integration Stage junior had continuously grown in strength right under his nose. He had been unable to do anything to him all this time. To Chihiro Yeh, even if it was not for Lu Xiaotian's cultivation techniques and treasures, he would still kill Lu Xiaotian quickly. Otherwise, the resentment in his heart would not dissipate.
"Now, it seems that I have to make a trip to the Soul Immersing Land. If it really involves Buddha Shiqing Lei's treasures, I won't make a move. Even if that bald donkey of the Buddhist Sect finds out about it, he won't really attack me."
After all, Ye Qianxun was an ambitious and ruthless person. He would not be scared off by the reputation of the Danzhu Buddhist Sect. Soon, he had a plan in his heart.
