Devil World.
Near the Imperial Palace in the North, there was a tall blood-red waterfall pouring down from a cliff that was dozens of meters high. The manic and scorching blood heavily smashed into the pool below, splashing a large amount of stinking blood foam.
Devil Emperor Vera sat on a black boulder in front of the waterfall. His pale white armor looked like it was made of bones. It didn't reflect any light, and looked gloomy with a hint of death.
"Whoosh!"
Two streaks of red light descended from behind him, revealing two muscular figures kneeling on one knee. "Mi Gelu greets Your Majesty."
The leader was a three-meter-tall, strong man without eyes, Mi Gelu. He was one of the oldest Starry Sky Nobles, and one of the top three Devil Masters of the North Devil Palace.
"There's been no news for too long," Vera said in a low voice. "The mission I gave Xiao Zizhu hasn't been completed, and there's no news from him either. I'm afraid something has happened to him. "
"… The soul fire is still there. Devil Master Xiao should be fine." As a top Devil Master, Mi Gelu also had the right to enter the depths of the Devil Emperor's palace and check on all the soul fires of the Devil Race.
"Yes, he's still alive, but his spirit is no longer his own," Devil Emperor Vera said in a low voice. "Go and take that thing with you to investigate. If something really happened, come back immediately. I'll take care of it myself."
Mi Gelu lowered his head.
"As you wish."
Vera wasn't as irritable as usual, because he felt fear.
He knew Xiao Zizhu's strength very well. When a top Devil Master went all out, only a few in the entire Great Yin could match him, even if he was at the Divine Intellect level. But now, something happened without a sound. He stopped at a small place in the Great Yin and refused to return. He even seized the military power of that small area.
…
Autumn Moon County, Thousand Sun Sect Palace.
Lu Sheng sat cross-legged in a secret room, stuffing Divine Weapons into his mouth.
"Crunch."
He easily bit off the tip of a blade, chewed a few times, and swallowed. A satisfied expression appeared on his face.
Large amounts of Mental Energy flowed into his body from the Divine Weapons like water.
Lu Sheng looked at the curved blade in his hand. Apart from the Tian 'er Blade, this was his last Divine Weapon. He had devoured the rest. His Mental Energy had also increased to more than 30,000. He would have enough to accumulate for the next upgrade of his Yin Flame.
Outside the secret chamber, the sky gradually darkened. In the end, Lu Sheng ignored the wails of the Divine Weapon scimitar and stuffed the scimitar into his mouth. He chewed and quickly swallowed the scimitar. Dinner was over.
Picking up the Tian 'er Blade from the ground, Lu Sheng was the Divine Weapon that Shizi Xing had asked for.
It was clearly an ordinary Golden Leaf Divine Weapon, but Shizi Shizi wanted it.
Holding the Tian 'er Blade, Lu Sheng carefully sensed the strange Divine Weapon power within it.
The God Divine Blade of of of of of Eyes were Of. of Blade. was Blade, and he felt, "said. of of of of. was. of Blade. and Mental energy. The speed and evasion he felt were two of the characteristics of this giant human ear.
'Since there is no contract, I can't see the deeper parts. But a Divine Weapon of this level shouldn't be enough to tempt Shizi Xing. 'Lu Sheng frowned. "Although it has two rare attribute abilities, speed and evasion, they do not make up a large proportion of the Tian 'er Blade's Core Skill. There are also a lot of other ordinary and messy special effects, but they are not at the level of the Core Skill. To the Holy Lord's powerful spirit, these ordinary special effects are not of much use. Offensive special effects aren't Core Skills. Most Divine Lords are immune to them, just like my Chaotic Mind Field. ' He had wanted to give it a try. Perhaps he would run into the enemy when they were at their weakest. Unfortunately, he had failed.
'A Core Law is a Core Law after all. The other special effects are still effective against those below the Divine Lord rank, but they're not very useful against Divine Lords. There are only some special effects that can assist one's Core Law, and they might be quite effective.'
Since he had completed the mission, it was time for him to return to the World of Pain.
He checked his surroundings carefully, and confirmed that there were no surveillance devices. Only then did he inject a trace of Yang Essence into his palm.
"Szzz …"
Everything in front of him turned gray. Lu Sheng's vision blurred, and in the blink of an eye, he was standing at the entrance of the town.
The town was still empty, and there was no one around. Not even Shizi Xing's subordinates or the townspeople could be seen.
Lu Sheng was familiar with the place, and quickly found the unique four-story building.
He quickly stepped into the empty courtyard outside the building. Suddenly, he paused, and turned his head to look at an empty corner not far away.
'There … seems to be something there …' A hint of doubt flashed through Lu Sheng's mind. Even with his spirit, he couldn't clearly see what had appeared in that corner.
But he had to return to the World of Pain now. Everything else had to be put aside.
Retracting his focus, Lu Sheng steadily walked up the stairs.
The gray light of the World of Pain shone on the handrail beside Lu Sheng. The entire stairwell was divided into white and gray.
Lu Sheng didn't waste any time, and walked straight up to the second room on the third floor.
Shizi Xing was dressed in a black robe, with a huge white cross on her back. She had her back to him, and was holding a scroll in her hand. She was silent.
"Sir, I've succeeded." Lu Sheng lightly tossed the Tian 'er Blade forward, and let it easily float in the air between the two of them.
"Where are the other two Evil Art Masters?" Shizi Xing turned around, and looked at the Tian 'er Blade with a satisfied expression. He seemed to be asking the other two casually.
"I'm not sure. But other than an accident, I haven't seen them since the first time I worked with them to hunt." Lu Sheng frowned, and shook his head slightly. "Without the help of two Divine Weapons, I couldn't kill them. I could only gamble, and only got this Divine Weapon after a narrow victory."
He didn't know why this ordinary Tian 'er Blade was a successfully cultivated Divine Weapon, but that didn't affect Shizi Xing's evaluation of his mission completion.
"Very good." Shizi Xing turned around, and held the Tian 'er Blade with a slightly intoxicated expression. "What a perfect structure …" she murmured. Although she was still using Xiao Zizhu's body, her expression was extremely feminine.
"If there's nothing else, Sir, I'll be taking my leave," Lu Sheng said in a low voice.
"Wait." Shizi Xing stopped Lu Sheng, and quickly took out a black and white disk about the size of a watch from her sleeve, and threw it over.
Lu Sheng caught it, and carefully examined the disk.
It was pitch black, and in the middle was a grid of black and white blocks. There was something like a pin on the back.
"An accessory?" Lu Sheng was confused.
"Yes, an accessory." Shizi Xing put away the Tian 'er Blade, and didn't hide her admiration for Lu Sheng at all. "Most of the Cross Parish's missions in Black Language Town have been completed. In the following days, we can have a good rest. You should take at least thirty percent of the credit, Lu Sheng. "
"It's all thanks to you, Sir." Lu Sheng bowed his head humbly.
"No need to be humble, you deserve it." Shizi Xing smiled. "The little accessory in your hand can be used twice. I poured all my power into it, and it can help you comprehend the Origin. It can help you improve your spirit, and reach a higher level. "
"Origin?" Lu Sheng paused. "This is …?"
"You came from an unorthodox background, so you might not know. Whether it's us Evil Art Masters, or the Holy Lords and Demon Lords of the Human World and Demon World, we all pursue the Origin of power. If the Core Law is the law of power, then the Origin is the source of power that you can completely grasp after understanding the law. This is the direction you will be heading in the future. This is also why Xiao Zizhu is so much stronger than you. " Shizi Xing was very satisfied with Lu Sheng. Compared to the other stupid subordinate Evil Art Masters and Mirror Spirit Masters, Lu Sheng was very efficient in completing missions. Maybe it was because he hid his identity well, or maybe it was because his methods were very direct.
But it didn't matter if it was a black cat or a white cat, as long as it could catch mice, it was a good cat. Shizi Xing didn't care what methods he used, as long as he completed the mission.
"The power of Origin …" Lu Sheng murmured. He knew his disadvantage very well. Before his identity was exposed, he had the chance to enter the upper echelons of the Thousand Sun Sect, and learn the secrets of the true Holy Lords. But now that he was exposed, there was no other way. As an outsider Holy Lord, he was destined to be excluded from the core circle, and couldn't learn the secrets of a higher level.
The Origin Power that could raise a Holy Lord to Divine Intellect was one of the core secrets.
"In the Human World, those who can control Origin Power are all at the peak of Holy Lords," Shizi Xing continued. Shizi Xing continued, "This step is actually easier for you to comprehend Origin Power than for us. We natives of the World of Pain, on the other hand, have a harder time comprehending Origin Power due to the powerful spirit we were born with."
"Then, if I may ask, how do I comprehend Origin Power?" Lu Sheng asked again.
Shizi Xing smiled. "Don't always look at things the same way. Origin Power is the starting point of everything. You need to comprehend all the laws of a type of power before you have the right to explore Origin Power. I left something on that ornament. Go take a look. You'll find something … "
Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes. He could faintly sense a hint of danger hidden under Shizi Xing's gentle appearance.
"I understand."
He left Shizi Xing's room with the ornament, and walked along the dark corridor toward the stairs. He passed by rooms on both sides. Sometimes there would be strange noises coming from these rooms, but most of the time, there was only silence.
Apart from Shizi Xing's room, no one else dared to barge in. Even the natives of Black Language Town didn't dare to wander around here.
In Black Language Town, this little building was the most special, followed by the special palace that Lu Sheng had entered before.
He walked down the stairs step by step. When he reached the corner of a staircase, he saw a girl in black clothes with a long braid standing in the corner. She was motionless, looking out the ventilation window.
