The peak experts of this world called the planet they lived on Lie.
Lie was divided into several layers, and the World of Pain was the deepest layer, close to the core of the planet. After that was the Devil World, and then the Human World.
The Three Realms coexisted on Lie, which was the environment for humans and devils to live in.
Then, Su Ningfei also said that the Weapon Grandmasters didn't cause any commotion when they fought because they didn't fight in Great Yin. Instead, they rose into the sky and went to the galaxy, which was the space above the Nine Heavens.
"By the way, many Divine Lords and peak Weapon Grandmasters, especially those from the three sects, chose to cultivate in seclusion in the Secret Area. It's not because they're bored. It's because the Secret Area is actually a small planet near Lie. Not only is it rich in Essence Qi, but there are also some ruins and treasures left from the ancient times. This powerful transportation formation with unknown principles was excavated by us from the ruins. "
At this point, Su Ningfei waited for Lu Sheng to digest the information, and finally got to the main topic.
"It's not impossible for me to help you this time, but you need to help me with something."
"Teacher … please tell me!" Lu Sheng looked like he had just barely recovered from his shock. It seemed that he still hadn't recovered from the vast starry sky.
Su Ningfei smirked and continued, "A few months ago, when the Weapon Grandmaster and the Demon Emperor were fighting, they accidentally discovered a mysterious door that had never been seen before on a moon orbiting Planet Lie. We sent several Weapon Grandmasters in, but we couldn't find any trace of them. After some research, we found a strange colorful energy vortex behind the door. "
"Teacher, you mean? You want me to go and investigate? " Lu Sheng's eyes narrowed. Even Weapon Grandmasters couldn't survive. Although he was a Divine Lord, he might not be able to handle the danger of this thing.
"Of course not." Su Ningfei smiled. "Naturally, the elites of the three sects have come to study this. However, we suspect that behind this door, there might be a connection to the higher-level Outer World that we've been studying. A dangerous world that the Weapon Grandmaster named Evil Spirits."
"The Evil Spirit World?" Lu Sheng frowned. "Could it be more dangerous than the World of Pain?"
"The World of Pain might be dangerous, but firstly, they can't descend upon it. Secondly, there are too few people in the World of Pain. Moreover, if they descended, the Three Sacred Gates would deal with them. The Three Sacred Gates had a deep connection with the Anomalies. It could be said that the Anomalies were created to deal with the World of Pain. There's a big secret behind this that you're not qualified to know yet. Let's not talk about it for now. What I want you to do is to head to the other door and guard it. At the same time, replace the Holy Lord who has been guarding the secret door. "
"Oh? How long do we need to guard the place after we replace them? "Lu Sheng asked carefully.
"The longest is ten years, the shortest is two years. You're not the only one going. Several other Sacred Lords are going with you. As for the mission reward, aside from helping you settle the matter with the Prime Devil Sect, there's also a Divine Intellect Divine Weapon for everyone, "Su Ningfei said seriously.
"Two!" Lu Sheng knew he couldn't avoid this. Since the Thousand Sun Sect dared to tell him such a secret, he obviously had to go. He couldn't escape. He might as well maximize the benefits immediately.
"No! This is already something that the sects have spent a lot of effort to gather. Ownerless Divine Intellect Divine Weapons are extremely rare. Giving you one is already the limit. Don't even think about anything else. "Su Ningfei refused without hesitation.
"May I ask where the secret door I'm guarding is, and what kind of situation I might face?" Lu Sheng asked.
"The Gate of Illusion is located on a small island in the East Sea. It's extremely far from Great Yin. It's best for you to arrange everything in the family before leaving. If you're worried about the family, you can have your juniors split a portion of their soul fire for you. If something happens to the family, you can return on your own, "Su Ningfei said calmly." This is a long-term mission. You're only going to replace a batch of people. Don't think too much. "
Lu Sheng nodded, and asked Su Ningfei for more information. Then, he slowly exited the Secret Area.
After resting in the secret room for a while, he quickly communicated with the 'Evil' character and entered the World of Pain.
He found Shizi Xing and told her about the mission he just received.
Shizi Xing sat by the bookshelf in the room, her fingers lightly rubbing the edge of the table, her brows slightly furrowed.
"The Gate of Illusion … Everything's fine there, and it's very stable. Occasionally, some evil beings would come out, and we just need to clean them up. But you're a force outside of the three sects' control. If the Thousand Sun Sect had a choice, they wouldn't have told you so many secrets. They even asked you to guard the Gate of Illusion. It seems they don't have enough power, "she said seriously.
"Master, what do you think …?" Lu Sheng threw the responsibility to Shizi Xing without hesitation. She might not be any weaker than Su Ningfei.
"What are you looking at? We're only one of the Nine Great Parishes, and this is a small place. I was sent here to preach for a while, and it's been a while. It's a good time for me to move out of here and return to the main city of the Ninth Parish," Shizi Xing said in a low voice.
"As for you, the Gate of Illusion has always been guarded by the three sects. There's no trap, so just go. But there's a lot of interference there, so it's impossible for you to enter the Secret Area or the Sacred World as you please. Be careful, and don't expose your identity. "
Shizi Xing thought for a moment, then slowly took out a small black crow sculpture from her pocket and handed it to Lu Sheng.
"Crush this if necessary. It can save your life three times. Don't waste it. Even for me, I only have a few of these. "His eyes revealed a hint of pain.
Lu Sheng's expression flickered. He took the sculpture and studied it closely. It was only the size of a palm, but the carving was extremely lifelike. It was as if a real black crow was standing on his palm. The crow's eyes were blood-red, and there was a faintly discernible silver thread on its back. Other than that, there was nothing special about it.
"Remember, don't use it carelessly. Only the Sacred World has this thing. If you use it, be prepared to completely break off relations with the human world," Shizi Xing said seriously.
In truth, although she and Lu Sheng hadn't worked together for a long time, Lu Sheng was very efficient at completing missions, and his strength was not bad. In the World of Pain where all True Essence spells were useless, Lu Sheng's strong body could be said to be in the top three among all of his subordinates.
Plus, he knew when to advance and when to retreat. If not for that, Shizi Xing really wouldn't have given him the black crow.
This was a life-saving item given to him by his father, the archbishop, when he left the main city. There were only three of them, and he had used one before, so he still had two left. Now that he gave one to Lu Sheng, he only had one left.
"Remember, it's more important to stay alive first. If the three sects have any ill intentions, you must remember to escape with your life. Our parish has just started to have a glimmer of hope. You bear great responsibility. Don't die so easily!" He kept reminding Lu Sheng in detail, which made him feel strange.
Although the two of them were superior and subordinate based on benefits, Shizi Xing was a honest person. As a superior, she never cheated people. She was honest, and always kept her word. She was also very generous to her subordinates.
Perhaps because of her extraordinary background, she didn't care much about what her subordinates took for themselves.
But no matter what, Lu Sheng could feel that this crow statue contained something unknown. It seemed to be a force field, but also like a living creature's magnetic field.
After leaving the World of Pain, he quickly started reorganizing the Prime Devil Sect and the Lu Manor.
He couldn't avoid going to a faraway place this time. Before he left, he had to settle as many things as he could, and prepare to leave after Chen Yunxi gave birth.
In a few short months, the Prime Devil Sect's power was greatly reduced, and many of the impulsive and reckless sect disciples were removed. They also established a Reward and Punishment Pavilion, specifically for sect disciples and Lu Manor disciples.
Based on the rules of other sects, Lu Sheng carefully formulated a series of rules that could be integrated into the Great Yin. Then, he sent a message to Divine Lord Tong Yi through the Secret Area, asking him to help take care of the Lu Manor and the Prime Devil Sect.
After that, it was time for Chen Yunxi to give birth.
…
In front of the pond outside the palace, Lu Sheng stood with his hands behind his back, quietly looking at the moonlight reflected on the water. The room behind him was brightly lit, and Chen Yunxi's cries of pain could be heard.
Many people had already gathered outside the palace walls and were waiting outside the walls. They were all looking forward to the successful birth of a Qilin son.
If a Qilin was born, the Lu Manor's bloodline could continue. If a phoenix was born, they would have to marry into the family. This was a bit more troublesome. After all, although the Great Yin was liberal, men still had a higher status than women.
Lu Sheng's expression was calm. Not far behind him stood Lu Quanan and the rest of his family members, all looking nervous. Unlike them, Lu Sheng could sense through his aura that Chen Yunxi's condition inside the room was progressing smoothly.
"Sheng 'er! Why aren't you panicking? That's your child! "Lu Quanan complained helplessly. "Look at you, it's as if Yunxi giving birth has nothing to do with you! How can a man act like this?! "
"Father, you're thinking too much." Lu Sheng smiled. "Shouldn't you be happier that your child isn't panicking?"
Lu Quanan thought about it and agreed. Lu Sheng's strength was comparable to that of a deity. If he wasn't panicking, it meant that his daughter-in-law was fine. With that thought, he was instantly relieved. Instead, he went to comfort Second Mother, Liu Cuiyu, and the others.
Lu Sheng swept his gaze across the people standing in the courtyard. Lu Qingqing was more or less healed, but she had lost a lot of her memories. Now that she was muddle-headed, he didn't let her come. Lu Yiyi was there, standing silently with Lu Hongying. When his gaze swept past, she lowered her head slightly to show respect.
Lu Sheng sighed. In order to cover up his monstrous rise in strength, he had sent people to spread rumors that he was actually a reincarnated spirit.
This led to fewer and fewer people in the Lu Family daring to get close to him.
Almost everyone thought that he was a reincarnated old monster senior. It was no longer possible for them to be as happy and harmonious as they were before.
Just as he was deep in thought, the palace suddenly fell silent. Then, a clear cry pierced through the palace doors and into the courtyard.
Lu Sheng's expression changed slightly. He closed his eyes. He could clearly feel that a trace of his bloodline existed independently in a small life within the palace.
This feeling was so strange, as if he was seeing a part of his own life germinating outside …
In this world, there was finally another person who was closest to him.
