After leaving the Cave of Tolerance, Lu Sheng was still thinking about what the young man had said. Of course, he didn't really believe that he was a young man. There were plenty of villains who could maintain their youthful looks, not to mention a sect expert with bloodline power.
This person was definitely an old monster far older than him. It was just that he maintained himself well, so he still looked like a young man.
'This Leaf Sect seems to be the real big force in the records. Stopping sects from feeding and harvesting people like livestock is their philosophy. But the Prime Devil Sect is the best place for me to develop now, so I don't have to think about anything else for now. '
There were many ruins in the depths of the Prime Devil Sect that could absorb Mental Energy, but he hadn't finished exploring them. He hadn't reached the end of his secret arts either, so he didn't have to think about anything else for now.
After memorizing the location of the Leaf Sect's Cave of Tolerance, Lu Sheng went all the way back to the plaza of the summit.
…
There was a vast plaza in front of the Melody Hall, paved with red stone slabs.
The plaza was square, with four statues of people of different shapes erected at the four corners. They were the four sect masters of the Heaven Lotus Sect who had contributed the most in history. The Heaven Lotus Two Saints were among them.
In front of the Melody Hall, the sect masters of the three upper grades sat on one side, looking down at the competition.
In the West Infinity Court's seating area, a bald middle-aged man looked calm. The corners of his eyes seemed to be dyed red, extending all the way to his temples. He wore a loose brocade robe, with two golden rings on each of his arms.
This was the first seat of the West Infinity Court, Blood Infant Huang Fu. He was also the strongest first seat, and was rumored to have entered the Snake realm a long time ago. Now that many years had passed, no one knew what level his cultivation had reached.
In the seat of the second-ranked Tian Rong Sect, there was a scholarly man. He wore a loose white robe with an apricot yellow belt around his waist. There were countless flying needles pinned to the belt, and each needle was as long as a palm. This person was called Gongsun Nian. His reputation wasn't that great, as he was low-key and didn't have many achievements. However, the Son of Destiny, Bai Xiu, publicly admitted that he was inferior to him, causing his reputation to soar.
In the third seat was the Wan Shun Palace. The Son of Destiny, Bai Xiu, was as cold as jade. He carried a sword much longer than the average sword on his back. His long black hair was tied into a ponytail, and his hands were placed on his knees. His eyes were slightly closed, as though he did not care about the chief disciples of the other sects fighting below.
At this time, it was the 19th versus the 20th in the upper three grades.
The chief disciples of the sects were all at the Seven-Vein Realm. Their secret techniques were dazzling and complicated, and each had their own style. However, they were firmly suppressed by the four giant statues, and could only display less than half of their usual power.
Around the square were the spectator seats for the middle three grades, and behind them were the seats for the lower three grades. The levels were exceptionally distinct.
Lu Sheng's Prime Devil Sect seat was already at the outermost area of the square. Behind it were the cliffs and valleys.
When Lu Sheng returned, He Xiangzi wasn't there either. A lone flag of the Prime Devil Sect was stuck in the seat.
The battle at the meeting square in the distance was not interesting at all. These secret techniques were of no use to him as a reference. They were all secret techniques that relied on unearthing his bloodline.
Bored, Lu Sheng sat cross-legged and began to practice his inner Qi. At the same time, he carefully observed the changes in the Demonic Will Heart.
Now that things had calmed down, he really did notice something strange.
'The first Devil Will Heart is the Human-Faced Snake, also known as the Snake of Jealousy. The second is the Lion of Rage. The third … if it develops according to the usual pattern, it'll be the Shadow of Insanity. If it's not the usual pattern, then it must be some other desire unearthing from the depths of my heart … '
Lu Sheng sensed carefully, and found that the third Devil Will Heart had indeed cracked again.
'A total of nine Devil Will Hearts. After all of them hatch and form the final Devil Heart, the Devil Heart Dao will erupt. It will also be the highest realm since the appearance of this secret technique of the Prime Devil Sect.' Lu Sheng was looking forward to it.
'The Prime Devil Sect's secret technique can completely transform the body and bloodline from the depths of the body. Inner Qi, on the other hand, is a power system that continuously strengthens and develops on the basis of the bloodline and body. When the two are combined, I'm really looking forward to seeing what will happen … '
He sat cross-legged and observed carefully for a while. He estimated that the third Devil Will Heart would hatch today and tomorrow.
After sitting cross-legged for about two hours, another match at the meeting ended. From afar, he could hear the shouts of people from various sects. Some were laughing and yelling, and some were cursing in regret.
There was a hubbub of voices over there, and the Prime Devil Sect was quiet and unmoving.
Another two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and the sky gradually darkened. People from various sects also slowly returned to their seats.
In the crowd of twos and threes on the square, He Xiangzi and the Zhan siblings, as well as Fang Tan and Chen Yunxiang, were all together, discussing the competition in whispers.
There was a wound on the side of Fang Tan's face that hadn't completely healed. Obviously, it was a scar from the previous competition.
Seeing that everyone had returned, Lu Sheng slowly stood up.
"Brother Lu, where did you run off to? I couldn't find you anywhere? "Zhan Kongning said regretfully." You didn't see the highlights just now. And Brother Fang's bitter battle, in which he finally defeated his opponent and successfully raised his ranking. "
"Is that so? I went down to the foot of the mountain to take a stroll, "Lu Sheng replied casually. "It's all over?"
"Now we're just waiting for the results of the Sect Master's Conference and the ranking. After a while, we'll have the overall ranking of the sects," Chen Yunxiang said with a smile. "We'll be able to leave tomorrow."
"Junior Apprentice Brother, you don't like crowded places?" He Xiangzi asked in a low voice.
"Not really." Lu Sheng looked at the disciples who were still discussing the competition in groups of twos and threes. He felt that this competition had become the main event for the disciples of the hundred lineages, who didn't have much entertainment.
"Then we can pack our bags tonight and get ready to go back," Lu Sheng said casually.
"So soon …" He Xiangzi honestly wanted to play. It wasn't easy to come out, and with so many people gathered together, and the sect's ranking was also stabilized, there was nothing to worry about. She was really reluctant to return to the sect in such a hurry.
"Yeah, it's not easy to come out for a gathering. Why don't we all have fun together?" Chen Yunxiang suggested. "My Jade Sound Clan has many beautiful junior apprentice sisters. Do you want me to introduce them to you, Junior Apprentice Brother Lu?" She teased with a smile.
"I'm married. Besides, this trip isn't for fun …" Lu Sheng said lightly.
"Okay, okay, let's stop chatting. It's time for dinner. The Heaven Lotus Sect has arranged for three different flavors: sweet, spicy, and sour. You can choose what you want to eat. What do you want to eat? "Zhan Hongsheng interrupted him.
"I want sour!"
"I want spicy."
Everyone said one after another.
Lu Sheng glanced at Zhan Hongsheng and Fang Tan, but didn't say anything.
"I won't go. Senior Apprentice Sister He Xiangzi, remember to come back early," he said, then turned and left slowly.
He Xiangzi looked at his back awkwardly, then at her friends and the others. For a moment, she didn't know what to choose.
…
Lin Family.
Lin Beikai put down the spoon in his hand, closed his eyes, and slowly chewed the food in his mouth.
Two people sat around him on both sides of the banquet table.
Two women, one in black and one in white. Both of them only had half of their hair, separated by a hairline from their forehead to the back of their necks. The left side had no hair, only the scalp, while the right side had waist-length black hair.
Both women had sunken eyes, and sharp fangs could be vaguely seen at the corners of their mouths.
"The meeting is about to end," Lin Beikai said in a low voice. "Lin Huandao has gone with the Holy Weapon. Everything is ready. We're just waiting for you two. "
The woman in black's face was cold, her hand gently rubbing the porcelain bowl in front of her.
"Logically, we Swallow Gods shouldn't interfere with the private affairs of young master and the others."
Lin Beikai smiled slowly.
"This isn't a private affair. Lin Huandao's arrangements are indeed impeccable, but Shangyang Fei won't be that simple. So I invited you two here in hopes that you can help me keep an eye on the Shangyang Family. Once their Judge makes a move, I hope you can inform me immediately so that I can be prepared. "
The two women looked at each other.
"Of course it's just surveillance. But young master has spent so much to invite us here. I don't think it's just for such a small matter?"
"Of course not." Lin Beikai smiled. "The plan is progressing steadily, and all the spies have been arranged properly. They're just waiting to be activated. I also invited you two here to prevent any accidents. "
"Prepared? Sure, "the woman in white said coldly.
"With the strength of the two of you, I'm relieved. Also … "Lin Beikai raised his wine cup." If Lin Huandao needs any help, I hope you two can take care of him. "
The two Swallow Gods knew about the conflict between him and Lin Huandao. Hearing this, they naturally understood that it wasn't real. They nodded slightly.
"If there's a chance, we'll intervene." They were originally on Lin Beikai's side. They didn't do anything before because they wanted to hide it. They needed to play an unexpected role at a critical moment, like now.
…
The next day.
The meeting was completely over. Lu Sheng didn't participate in the whole process. He was cultivating his inner force in his assigned room.
In the afternoon, He Xiangzi came in to inform him that it was over. Only then did he slowly walk out.
"Where's Master? What's our ranking? "Lu Sheng asked casually.
He Xiangzi beamed with joy at the mention of this.
"We're fifty-ninth! Master won against three sect masters, and got quite a lot of property and mines! We've really made a comeback this time! "
"Very good. When are we going back?" Lu Sheng was also relieved. The meeting went smoothly from beginning to end, and they didn't run into any trouble.
He also kept his guard up and didn't dare to reveal his strength in case he was targeted. He didn't expect that nothing would happen from beginning to end.
'Did they really give up? Impossible … 'He didn't believe it.
"Junior Apprentice Brother, I also think we should go with Shizhi Guangzong. They're going in the same direction as the three sects, and can bring us along. That way, most of the sect's elites will be together. It's much safer, "He Xiangzi said seriously.
Lu Sheng frowned and thought about it. "What about Master?"
"I also think we should go with the main group." Liu Shanzi walked slowly into the courtyard and looked at Lu Sheng and He Xiangzi with a gratified expression. "This time, it's all thanks to you, Little Sheng."
"I'm also a member of the Prime Devil Sect. Master, you're treating me like an outsider." Lu Sheng smiled. "But, I feel that too many people won't be good for us to hide."
Great Elder Liu Shanzi pondered for a moment.
"That's true. If that's the case, it's better to go alone. We have fewer people, so we can move faster."
He paused. "Then let's go alone. It's easier to hide."
