After waiting on the spot for about ten minutes, Lu Sheng heard a flashy streak of golden light shooting toward him from afar.
Imam Men Fa's breathing quickened slightly. His expression changed drastically when he saw Lu Sheng.
"How dare you! How dare someone attack a disciple of the Red Moon Sect on this Mount Gazing Planet? You must be tired of living! "
Naturally, he could tell that Lu Sheng's injuries were only minor. However, as long as he was injured, it would be a grave crime!
Lu Sheng had money on him, yet he had injured his subordinate. Furthermore, he had reported that he was from the Red Moon Sect. This was unacceptable.
The imam immediately questioned Lu Sheng anxiously when he arrived.
"You've worked hard. Go back and recuperate. The Red Moon has always been aware of your contributions. Also, are you sure they really have a mystery crystal?! "
"Uh … I'm not sure if I'm seeing things, but I feel that even if they don't have a mystery crystal, there must be something very valuable. The formations set up in this fortress alone cost at least hundreds of thousands of ice money! "Lu Sheng had a rough understanding of formations, so he roughly estimated the value.
"Hundreds of thousands of ice money??" The imam's breathing became heavier.
"Alright … Alright … There's nothing else for you here. Go back and recuperate." He impatiently waved his hand at Lu Sheng.
"Yes, I'll go back first. Be careful, imam!" A hint of reluctance appeared on Lu Sheng's face. However, when he saw the cold and threatening look in imam Men Fa's eyes, he had no choice but to turn around and fly away quickly.
Before he could fly far, he heard a deafening explosion behind him.
When he turned around, he saw a huge white mushroom cloud soaring into the sky from the fortress. The cloud spread in all directions, emitting a large number of light blue fluorescent spheres.
"That's fast!" Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes. The Yang Essence on his body quickly enveloped the Scarlet River Seed. After isolating it, he turned around and flew back to the fortress.
He didn't fly far before he saw the imam flying back with a satisfied look on his face. He seemed to be holding a square silver cube in his hand.
The entire fortress had disappeared without a trace.
Lu Sheng hid at the side for a while and let the imam fly away first. After that, he quickly rushed out and searched around the original location of the fortress.
There was nothing in the greyish-white ruins, only a large amount of flesh-like gelatinous substances.
A few broken limbs were scattered around, and there was also a large black mark that looked like a church symbol. It seemed to have been crippled, and only a small part of it was left on the ground.
Lu Sheng walked around but found nothing. His gaze soon fell on the black mark.
"The rest of the valuables have all been taken away. Seems like this is the only thing left …" He could feel the surging waves of countless souls wailing from the mark.
Although the fluctuations were very weak, it was still better than not finding anything.
After some thought, he quickly walked to the side of the mark and pressed his hand on it.
* Hiss … *
Large amounts of Mental Energy surged into his body like a swarm of bees.
One thousand, two thousand, three thousand …
In just a few short minutes, tens of thousands of Mental Energy units surged into it. However, that was all. The mark seemed to have been damaged. This was all it could absorb.
He was slightly dissatisfied. He risked his life to call the imam, and this was all he got. He might as well not have called for it.
After rummaging through the ruins for a while, he suddenly heard a soft sound coming from a corner.
"Cough, cough, cough …" Someone was coughing.
Lu Sheng quickly walked to the source of the sound. He looked around, and his gaze fell on a pile of rubble to his right.
He waved his hand, and an invisible force immediately pushed the rubble away.
Under the rubble, a white-haired girl with gray patches all over her body lay on her back. The girl seemed to be in a daze. There was nothing in her big, light blue eyes, only blankness.
"Who … are you?" The girl raised her head and looked at Lu Sheng who was walking closer. She asked blankly.
Lu Sheng looked to his left and right. There was no one around him. He could not sense any life forms even with his spirit. However, this girl was right before his eyes, and he could not sense her at all. If he did not see her with his eyes, he would have thought that there was no living thing here.
'Should I kill her or not?' He hesitated for a moment. He was a kind person, after all. He had his own bottom line.
"Let's go." Lu Sheng's body emanated a black aura. He enveloped the girl and rose into the air. In the blink of an eye, he flew into the distant sky.
… …
A crimson bonfire danced and burned in the cave at night.
Lu Sheng squatted beside the bonfire and roasted a juicy piece of crab meat. The meat, which was picked out from the crab's claws, was extremely delicious. Just by roasting it casually, it gave off an unusually rich sweet fragrance.
"Tell me yourself. Who are you? Why are you in that fortress?" Lu Sheng's instincts told him that this girl was not ordinary.
The girl hugged her legs and stared blankly at the dancing flames.
"I'm a Silverblood. My name is Toram Bach."
"A Silverblood?!" Lu Sheng's heart skipped a beat.
The Silver Bloods were the legendary poisoners that were truly incurable. The poison in their bodies was one of the strongest known poisons. It was also one that had no antidote.
Moreover, Silverbloods were extremely rare. They were mutated, so most people only heard of them in legends. No one had ever seen one with their own eyes.
Lu Sheng did not expect that he would accidentally capture a member of a legendary rare race.
"Where's your home?" he asked, trying to strike up a conversation.
"I don't know … I'm an Anomaly. You know that after an Anomaly dies a few times, its memories disappear. I don't even know what I was like in the past," the girl said drily.
"Then you still remember your name."
"They gave it to me the day before yesterday."
"They?"
"A woman called Lu Rong."
Lu Sheng asked casually. If this woman was truly an Anomaly, then she could not be killed. She would be reborn after a certain period of time. Just like Yingying.
Moreover, she was a rare Silverblood. This made it possible for her to continuously bleed.
The people from the Natash Merchant Alliance probably treated her as an endless source of money. They kept extracting the extremely poisonous silver blood.
"Do you want me to draw blood? If I drain it all at once, I'll need a week to recover. "Toram Bach raised her hand and looked at Lu Sheng.
"There's no need. I'm not that kind of person." Lu Sheng shook his head. "Do you have anywhere you want to go?"
"No."
"Come with me, then. It just so happens that I need some help. "Lu Sheng gave it some thought. An advantage of being an Anomaly was that it could not die.
Once it appeared, it could last for many years. Its lifespan was much longer than that of an ordinary human.
Since he could not think of a place for Toram Bach, Lu Sheng decided to bring her to meet up with the other Red Moon Disciples. They followed the imam, Men Fa, and looted the place.
After looting a dozen more places, Lu Sheng obtained more than 300,000 Mental Energy units. There was basically nothing left in this place.
The wanted criminal of the Veron Tribe was also dealt with by Men Fa. The entire mission was extremely easy.
Unlike when he left, Lu Sheng brought an additional Silverblood, Toram Bach, with him.
The others thought that Toram Bach was a servant girl he bought from the slave market.
Lu Sheng decided to use her as a servant girl. He ordered her to clean the house and take charge of simple maintenance and cleaning of the Formation.
After attaining the Confusion Realm, Lu Sheng meditated every day to cultivate his body and mind. He stabilized the waves of his spirit after his advancement.
Then, he accepted a dozen more missions from the Red Moon Disciples. He completed more than a decade's worth of missions in one go.
Due to his diligence and his high success rate, two months later, Lu Sheng was promoted to imam.
He was also getting used to his improved abilities in the Confusion Realm.
Although Lu Sheng only displayed the strength of a Weapon Grandmaster, the three great factions of the Red Moon Disciples in Libra City still contacted him. They hoped to recruit him into their factions.
A Weapon Grandmaster was considered a small elite in Libra City.
Moreover, Lu Sheng was a Heavenly Devil. This was not hidden from Libra City's information system. Heavenly Devils had the characteristic of having to Descend once in a while. The waves from the Formation could not be concealed at all.
Lu Sheng was not in a hurry. Now that his strength had stabilized slightly, he began to accumulate more resources. Since he was promoted to imam, he gradually formed his own little circle. To be precise, it was an imam's little circle.
…..
Sitting in the courtyard, Lu Sheng held a teacup and sipped hot tea. He had just completed a bounty mission and returned from another imam's place.
During this period of time, due to Lu Sheng's decent medical skills, he had established simple connections with a few Red Moon Disciples' imams who lived nearby.
This was especially so for Men Fa, who had been in contact with him previously. This imam had benefited from Lu Sheng's help previously. This time, Lu Sheng was promoted because he wanted to return the favor.
'Imam's authority is different. You can even obtain all skill formulas below the Weapon Grandmaster rank for free. There's a 20% discount on all items in the sect. The rewards for the missions you receive are also much better. 'Lu Sheng sat on the stone chair and organized his thoughts.
'I've surpassed two basic ranks in one go in the Confusion Realm, and I'm close to completion. My next step should be to prepare for ascending to the Void Underworld realm. '
'Void Underworld …' Lu Sheng sighed.
The East Park Autumn Dew Fertilizing Method was quite comprehensive. It recorded the method to ascend to the weakest Void Underworld realm.
The Void Underworld realm needed to establish the cycle of life and death in one's own energy.
In the Heavenly Devil System, this was the cycle of life and death in one's Heart Image World.
'To establish the cycle of life and death, I'll need to understand the reincarnation heart. I'll only be able to come into contact with reincarnation spiritual power after I understand the reincarnation heart.'
Lu Sheng recalled the Fertilizing Mantra in his mind. Disregarding all the other miscellaneous fertilizing effects, the basic framework of this mantra was pretty good.
The reincarnation heart needed to understand and experience the complete reincarnation of life. From this, one would be able to understand the essence of the cycle of life.
Naturally, this bit of experience was nothing to the Confusion Realm beings who had lived for tens of thousands of years. They only needed to recall their memories carefully and search for inspiration.
However, it was different for Lu Sheng. Although he was a transmigrator, he had never experienced the complete cycle of life from birth to old age. After all, he had never experienced the complete cycle of life before.
'I've experienced being reborn after death, but I was at the prime of my life when I died in my previous life. I'm still far from old age.'
After making some calculations in his mind, Lu Sheng knew that the key still lay in his Arrival.
