A few people wielding daggers approached him slowly. As they got closer, Lu Sheng could faintly feel something similar to the palm on his body. His skin was turning transparent.
'This should be due to assimilation and contamination?' He was not sure. He still had no idea what kind of place the World of Pain was. However, there was one thing he was sure of.
That place was extremely dangerous.
"Ah!!" Suddenly, Sima Xiu pounced at him.
Lu Sheng kicked him to the ground. He flicked his fingers, and two beams of Pure Qi accurately pierced through his black membrane, shattering his knees and hands.
Sima Xiu struggled on the ground, but could not get up. Lu Sheng's True Qi locked onto his joints tightly, preventing his flesh from regenerating and regenerating.
Lu Sheng dealt with the rest of them at the same time. However, he also noticed that his True Qi was being consumed faster and faster as they regenerated their flesh and blood.
'I should destroy this door first.' Lu Sheng composed himself, and slowly walked towards the mirror that was surging with gray fog.
"Bam."
Suddenly, his nose collided with an invisible barrier.
The barrier caved in from Lu Sheng's nose, but it also stopped him from moving forward.
'This is …?' Lu Sheng raised his finger. His current Pure Qi black membrane appeared between his fingers. The black membrane quickly transformed into a sharp thorn that pierced forward.
"Pu."
The invisible barrier was broken, and slowly dissipated. Strands of Mental Energy surged into his body.
'This should be enough, right?' Lu Sheng looked around, and continued walking forward. He walked until he reached the mirror. He reached out and grabbed at it.
"Bam!"
Suddenly, an arm reached out from the mirror and grabbed Lu Sheng's wrist.
It was a rotting gray arm. Its fingers were sharp, and its palm was covered in white hair. There was a traditional character for 'Evil' on the back of the hand.
As the arm grabbed Lu Sheng, a huge force surged towards him, trying to pull him into the mirror.
"Fool!" Lu Sheng grinned. Someone was stupid enough to compete with him in terms of strength.
"Slap."
He grabbed the arm with a backhand and pulled it out with a jerk.
This time, he didn't just use the power of the Realm of Bind, but the true power of the Eight-Headed Devil Art.
With a puff, the arm was torn off like a straw being pulled out. The gray fog in the mirror surged violently, and one could faintly hear a scream.
Lu Sheng slashed at the mirror.
Bang!!
The mirror shattered, and a gust of wind blew out. A huge amount of Mental Energy surged into his body. He did not even have the time to calculate. He felt that he had gained at least 200 units of Mental Energy!
A strong gust of wind blew in all directions, ignoring the walls and barriers. Every corner of the Fei Residence was covered by the wind.
The fog above the Fei Clan slowly dissipated, and the previously dark sky gradually brightened up.
The whole room shook for a moment, and the fog quickly disappeared, revealing the broken glass mirror on the ground.
Large amounts of white ash were blown up from the ground. All of it faded, became transparent, and disappeared.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, the abnormality finally disappeared. Lu Sheng bent down to pick up one of the mirror shards. It was the most common glass, without any impurities or abnormalities.
The people in the storage room all fell to the ground and lost consciousness.
Lu Sheng turned around, and his gaze fell on the disappearing daggers in the people's hands.
"As expected … even though I didn't face a strong opponent head-on, this kind of dagger is shockingly powerful and lethal. If I'm not careful, I could even hurt myself in a sneak attack. I have to be careful next time."
He didn't even look at the people on the ground. Now that the Gate of Pain was closed, he still had to investigate what happened to the Fei Clan.
But that wasn't his problem anymore.
Lu Sheng took out a Thousand Sun Sect's signaling firework, pulled off the fuse, and threw it outside the door. The firework shot into the sky with a whoosh, and exploded into a huge, pale gold "Yang" character.
He didn't wait long before he heard the sound of something rushing toward him. He pushed the door open and walked out.
Two masked people in purple clothes landed in the courtyard. The word "Thousand Sun" was embroidered on their left chests.
"True Disciple Lu." One of them cupped his hands at Lu Sheng. "What happened that made you use an Emergency Warning Talisman?"
"I found a new Gate of Pain here. I need to report it and keep it a secret," Lu Sheng said calmly.
"Gate of Pain??!" The two of them exclaimed slightly. The only thing visible on their masks changed their expressions.
"Please wait a moment," one of them said respectfully. At the same time, he took out a delicate round plate and started fiddling with it.
Lu Sheng nodded, and turned to check on the injuries of the people in the room.
Fei Bailing wasn't dead, and her injuries were mostly healed. He hadn't held back with that stomp just now. A normal person would've been crushed in half, but Fei Bailing only had a dozen or so broken bones. The rest of her body was fine. She definitely had some sort of secret.
Lu Sheng gave it some thought, but resisted the urge to investigate her body. This woman was involved with the Gate of Pain, and the implications were too great. He was afraid that it would directly affect the upper sect.
This wasn't the Great Song, and the things he left behind might be discovered. If that happened, it wouldn't be worth it.
He had already gained a lot from this trip. He had made a contribution, and received a lot of Mental Energy. He had also seen what the legendary World of Pain was like.
The three of them waited for a while. Soon, figures descended from the sky and landed beside the pond in the courtyard.
Among them was Chen Jing, the sect master of the Thousand Sun Sect. He had just taken care of Lu Sheng's identity, and hadn't rested for long before he received a notification from the Gate of Pain. He was shocked and immediately rushed over. He had to lock down the situation before the Yin Yang Agency and Turquoise Conch Agency arrived, and get firsthand information.
Beside him were the emergency troops of the Thousand Sun Sect, people from the Blood Sun.
There were three people from the Blood Sun. They were all expressionless, and wore white robes with red borders. Their bodies emanated the powerful aura of an Earth Prime Snake.
"Is this the place? Sect Master Chen? "one of the Blood Sun asked in a low voice.
Chen Jing also saw Lu Sheng walk out of the room, and nodded at him. "This is the place. The person who discovered it is the second true disciple of my branch, Lu Sheng. He happens to be cultivating in the courtyard over there."
"We need to investigate it carefully. True Disciple Lu's identity is different from the others, and we must treat him with caution. Please forgive us, Sect Master Chen," the Blood Sun replied calmly.
"There won't be any trouble, will there?" Chen Jing frowned. If it wasn't related to the Gate of Pain, he wouldn't have liked to deal with people from the Blood Sun. These people all killed without batting an eye. Many of them were powerful fighters who had retired from the battlefields of the Devil Army. They were cruel and merciless, and killing people was just a light punishment. Some of the more extreme ones would even exterminate entire families. Chen Jing didn't like their murderous nature.
"Don't worry, Sect Master. If it really is the Gate of Pain, then True Disciple Lu will have made a contribution this time." The Blood Sun tried to force a smile to reassure Chen Jing.
"Then I'm relieved," Chen Jing said as he waved at Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng had also heard the conversation, and roughly understood the identities of the Blood Sun and the others. At this moment, he approached them.
"Greetings, Seniors." He put on an attitude of a junior and greeted them with a smile.
"You're too kind, True Disciple Lu." The leader of the Blood Sun smiled stiffly as well. "Please tell us how you discovered the Gate of Pain. Make sure you don't leave out any details."
"No problem." Lu Sheng nodded, and began to explain in detail how he discovered the abnormality of the Fei Family.
The conversation went on for more than ten minutes.
"It really is a forgetting mechanism." The leader of the Blood Sun's expression turned solemn. "No wonder even the Turquoise Conch Agency didn't discover it in time. This time, we'll directly seal the remains and bring them to the upper sect. Perhaps we can seal a possible rift to the World of Pain in advance. True Disciple Lu's contributions cannot go unnoticed. "
"You're too kind, Senior. I was just lucky, "Lu Sheng said humbly.
"Luck won't be able to resist the corruption of Pain …" The leader of the Blood Sun said meaningfully.
Lu Sheng smiled, and didn't reply.
"By the way, Lu Sheng, you haven't returned to the branch sect to choose another True Qi cultivation method, right?" Chen Jing suddenly asked from the side. "It just so happens that I'm about to return after taking care of some matters here. Do you want to come with me?"
"Thank you, Sect Master. I couldn't ask for more." Lu Sheng could tell that Chen Jing was covering for him, and hurriedly replied.
"Then I won't disturb the two of you." The leader of the Blood Sun nodded. "Please."
Chen Jing nodded. With a wave of his hand, a scroll of paper shot out from his sleeve.
The pure white paper spread out, forming a rectangle about five meters wide and six meters long. It floated in the air.
He leaped up lightly, landed on the paper, and sat down cross-legged.
Lu Sheng did the same, and leaped onto the paper.
"Rise."
Chen Jing raised his hand, and the scroll shot into the sky.
The two of them flew away from the Fei Family in a few breaths' time, and were dozens of meters above the Autumn Moon County.
The air flow naturally split apart on both sides of the scroll, and the two of them didn't even feel a trace of cold wind as they sat on the scroll.
The white clouds above flew past quickly, and the gray buildings below moved backward.
Chen Jing didn't even look at the direction the scroll was flying in. Instead, his gaze fell on Lu Sheng.
"Lu Sheng. Are you alright? "
Lu Sheng was stunned, but he immediately realized that the sect master was asking if he was injured, or if there were any secrets that he shouldn't be involved in.
He shook his head. "No problem."
"That's good. The people from the Blood Sun are very radical. Once the World of Pain and the Devil World are involved, they won't let it go. You have to be careful, "Chen Jing reminded him. "One of their three bosses completely destroyed two major forces in the outside world because of a little suspicion, and destroyed several Divine Weapons and Devil Blades. Your teacher might be that one, but the other three are all Rogue Divine Weapons. No one knows what they're thinking. Rogue Divine Weapons have the word 'Rogue' in their name because they don't care about the rules. "
Lu Sheng's heart skipped a beat.
"I know. There's definitely no problem."
"That's good." Chen Jing nodded. He didn't ask how Lu Sheng was immune to the World of Pain's forgetting mechanism and Pain corruption. Everyone had their own opportunities. As long as he didn't get involved with the Devil World or the World of Pain, the people from the Blood Sun wouldn't mess with him.
"Branch sects are too small for you. It won't be long before you'll be promoted to a prefecture-level sect. That's where the real world is. You'll be able to see the bloodlines of the elders, Divine Weapon Masters, Chaotic Divine Weapons, Divine Lords, and other disciples of the sect. Your talent is outstanding here, but you'll only be an ordinary disciple there. "Master Qian Du is powerful, but you're not her true disciple. She never had a true disciple. So you have to be careful. "Chen Jing clearly had a powerful background, and he knew these things like the back of his hand. He carefully explained the secrets to Lu Sheng.
"I understand." Lu Sheng nodded.
"I'm telling you this because your information has attracted the attention of a high sect. The sect directly under the Autumn Moon County is the Thousand Sun Sect of the Moling Prefecture. They've already sent you an official transfer order. After you choose your supporting cultivation method, you can leave when the transfer order arrives, "Chen Jing explained. "Of course, you can choose to stay in the Autumn Moon County, but that's not a good choice. This place is too small and weak, and there's no True Essence Tower.
