Two top-notch Martial Grandmasters who were at the peak of their powers were gathered in a place like this at the same time.
"What … What kind of joke is this!! How … How could this happen?! "The three of them were drenched in sweat as they slowly retreated.
The Wicked Alliance's recent reputation in the martial world had reached an unprecedented peak.
Since ancient times, there had only been a few instances where the Wicked Alliance had suppressed Shaolin Mountain and the martial world.
This time, Chen Ziluo, the leader of the Wicked Alliance, had set fire to Shaolin Mountain. This had caused everyone to elevate him to the same level as the Martial Grandmasters in history.
Although there were people who argued that Wang Houzhong, a Great Grandmaster, must have been the main force, there were too many people who had witnessed the battle between Wang Houzhong and the old monk. There were more than a hundred survivors, and the information that had been leaked was also very detailed. There was no room for debate.
Now, however, no one dared to question Lu Sheng's ability in front of him.
No matter how weak he was, he could easily kill them.
Lu Sheng's blood-red eyes swept across the room, and soon fell on a burly old man who had just entered.
"Senior Sky Snake, you're old but strong. Rumor has it that you're the king of the eastern seas and you're free and unfettered. I wonder why you've suddenly come to the Central Plains?" Lu Sheng had purposely sent away so many of his subordinates. One reason was to avoid meaningless casualties, and the other was because he was very curious about Sky Snake.
Although he could not release his spirit, he had adapted to most of Deep Blue's enhanced deduction. His cultivation base had far surpassed the so-called human limits of this world.
Logically speaking, at this level, he was completely invincible in the world, and no one could rival him.
However, the Sky Snake before him gave him the same feeling. He was a monster that far surpassed ordinary people.
Moreover, Lu Sheng could clearly sense the fleeting aura of the Heavenly Demon from him.
Sky Snake was a long-faced old man with a bluish-black face and a scar on his forehead. He wore a long black robe with white sleeves and two dark green jade bracelets on his wrists.
After entering, he saw Lu Sheng sitting at the table, and his expression changed slightly. He paused for a moment, then slowly walked to the table and sat down.
"I was planning to take the Origin Core and leave, but I didn't expect to run into you here." Sky Snake forced a smile and held the cup of tea in his hand without drinking it. But because he rarely smiled, the smile he squeezed out was extremely stiff.
"You want the core?" Lu Sheng smiled. "I can give it to you."
"What condition?" Sky Snake reacted quickly.
"Help me find something." Lu Sheng took out a piece of white paper from his bosom. There was a pattern drawn on it.
Sky Serpent took it and glanced at it. Suddenly, his expression turned a little strange.
"Are there any other details about this thing? Just from this little bit of decoration, there are many similar appearances. "
"One more thing. I know his name is Sinful Eye," Lu Sheng added.
"Sinful Eye?" Sky Snake nodded. "Alright, I'll keep an eye on it."
Lu Sheng thought for a moment, then casually tossed the Origin Core in his hand to Sky Serpent.
"You're giving it to me just like that?" Sky Serpent was slightly surprised. He caught the Origin Core.
"Of course. What else do you want?" Lu Sheng asked.
"…" After a moment of silence, Sky Serpent nodded. "You've obtained the Void Root's friendship. I'm sure you've met two Children of the Origin Core? Actually, I'm a Child of the Origin Core as well. Normally, the more Origin Cores I collect, the stronger I am, and the higher my status will be. "
Lu Sheng smiled. Naturally, he had guessed that Sky Serpent was a Child of the Origin Core as well. As for the Origin Core, which was the so-called Divine Jade, he had long since absorbed all the Mental Energy within it. All that was left was an ordinary Origin Core with nothing inside.
For this, he obtained at least 8,000,000 Mental Energy units. It was a bountiful harvest.
This made Lu Sheng, who initially planned to head to the Empress Wa World, want to give up on that place and come here to collect Origin Cores. It would be faster.
However, when he thought of the Indefinite Cult Master, Lu Sheng was slightly moved. Since there was such a rare resource like the Origin Core here, it was highly possible that there were experts of similar rank here as well.
He had purposely called his subordinates away so that he could have a chance to come into contact with this power. After all, he could not use the Origin Core. Although it was a good item, after absorbing all his Mental Energy, it could only restore his status.
There were too many substitutes for such an item.
"You just want me to help you find this thing?" Sky Serpent seemed to be slightly puzzled. Lu Sheng had offered such a precious treasure like the Origin Core for such a small request.
"That's right. I've met one of your Children of the Origin Core before. He's the one in the Zhao Family. Do you know him? "Lu Sheng asked directly.
"Oh?!" Sky Serpent's expression changed slightly. "Zhao Family … Which Zhao Family?"
"Libra City," Lu Sheng uttered the name casually.
Sky Serpent fell silent for a moment. Then, he suddenly waved his hand.
Hiss, hiss, hiss. Three specks of cold light shot out from the door. In the blink of an eye, three muffled grunts were heard nearby. It sounded like the sound of hidden weapons tearing through flesh.
Lu Sheng was not surprised. His five senses sensed that the three auras outside were swiftly dimming and fading away. He sipped his tea slowly and waited for the other party's reply.
"Zhao Family … The one you met is indeed an important person in our cult. To be able to come into contact with that person … and not die after meeting that person, looks like your identity and strength are above my estimation," Sky Serpent said in a deep voice. "How about this? I'll give you this."
He retrieved a small red seal and handed it to Lu Sheng.
"This is the Origin Core Seal. If you have any trouble that you can't solve, or any information or treasures that you need to collect, you can use this to summon us once. The Void Root will give you a corresponding reward based on your contributions and help. The Void Root will give you a corresponding reward based on your contributions and help to us. Remember, each Origin Core Seal can only be used once. "
Lu Sheng accepted the small red seal. He was rather surprised that he could form a connection with this mysterious and unfathomable Void Root by giving up an Origin Core.
As far as he could remember, the Void Root was a mysterious organization on the same level as the Red Moon Evil Sect. Although the Red Moon Evil Sect was not doing well near Libra City, they were notorious in the entire Demonic Realm. Even the Palaeozoic were not willing to provoke them.
The Void Root was even more mysterious. They came and went like ghosts. The Children of the Origin Core were hidden in the depths of the hearts of the people in the Demonic Realm. They were extremely difficult to detect.
If you provoked them, you would not even know when you would fall into their trap.
"Alright. Thank you." Lu Sheng caressed the seal. This thing looked like an ordinary red clay seal on the surface. Nobody would have thought that it was related to the Children of the Origin Core.
"So, if I find other Origin Cores …" Lu Sheng asked again.
"It's the same. You'll obtain more Origin Core Seals. Each Origin Core Seal is a promise from us, the Void Root. "The Sky Snake's words allowed Lu Sheng to see the importance of the Children of the Origin Core Seals in a new light.
It was already beyond his expectations that he could obtain such a great amount of Mental Energy from this small world. Now, he could even obtain additional rewards.
"Well then, I have one more question," Lu Sheng said again with a thought.
"Please ask." The Sky Snake's attitude was clearly much gentler now that he had obtained the Origin Core.
"When I returned to the Demonic Realm last time, the world passage I opened suddenly changed …" Lu Sheng described the blood-colored passage door he saw in detail.
The Sky Snake did not pay much attention to it at first. However, as he listened to Lu Sheng's description of the details, he became more and more serious.
"This is something major that happened in another galaxy. It affected the balance of the world. The Demonic Realm is the End of the Myriad Worlds. It will recover on its own soon. Don't worry, nothing major will happen," he said in a low voice.
Lu Sheng understood what he was trying to say.
This was not something they should be concerned about at their level. It was best to leave it alone.
"Alright. Then, I wish you the best of luck in finding more Origin Cores. "Lu Sheng did not say anything else after hearing this.
"Thank you." The Sky Snake nodded and turned to leave.
Lu Sheng watched him leave quietly. He felt that the purpose of his Arrival was more or less achieved.
"Let's leave after we find Chen Ziluo's master. This is not a place to stay for long. " It had only been a short while, and he had already encountered an Origin Core. There were so many Children of the Origin Core. It was clear that this small world was most likely the Void Root's mining world. It was specifically used to collect Origin Cores.
Even if he stayed, he would definitely be monitored by the Children of the Origin Core. He might as well leave.
When he thought of this, Lu Sheng picked up the teapot and drank it in one gulp.
In the next half a month or so.
Lu Sheng ordered the entire Evil League to search for the whereabouts of the Divine Jade. At the same time, he did not forget to look for the Sinful Eye.
Unfortunately, it was only luck that they got the Origin Core from the old monk. The Evil League had tens of thousands of people, but they still found nothing after searching for more than half a month.
Instead, they found the whereabouts of Du Fengzi and Ning Mei.
It was a force called the Blood Killing Cult that had intercepted and killed the Sect Masters. However, half a month ago, the Blood Killing Cult had released Du Fengzi, Ning Mei, and the rest of the Leaf Mountain Sword Sect for no reason. When the Evil League found them, Du Fengzi was on his way back to Leaf Mountain.
…
"Ancient Path Setting Sun, Yellow Sand Scattered … Looks like the crops will fail again this year …"
On the ox cart, Du Fengzi looked at the withered rice fields on both sides of the road and sighed.
Ning Mei sat alone by the window, reading a book in her hand. The rest of the people in the carriage were chatting in low voices.
"We're almost at the boundary of Leaf Mountain, right?" Du Fengzi suddenly asked.
Ning Mei put down the book and recalled the map.
"We've just left Bailuo Town. Once we pass through Peach Blossom City, we'll reach Leaf Mountain."
"I wonder how the sect center is doing." Du Fengzi sighed.
"And Junior Brother Chen … What happened? Why was Junior Brother Chen suddenly expelled from the sect? He's my disciple! What right do they have to expel him!? "Du Fengzi became emotional when he thought of this. He could not help but lower his head and cough.
"Master, your injuries have not healed. Be gentle." Ning Mei quickly got up and gently patted Du Fengzi's back.
"Someone, someone's coming!" Suddenly, the disciple driving the carriage outside shouted. "It's the people from the Leaf Mountain Sword Sect!"
Du Fengzi quickly lifted the curtain and looked into the distance. Indeed, he saw Wang Yue from the Leaf Mountain Sword Sect and a few young disciples waiting in a tea shed in front.
However, unlike what he had expected, Wang Yue and the others were all injured and looked battered.
The ox cart arrived quickly. Du Fengzi got off the cart and quickly went up to them.
"Elder Du …" Seeing Du Fengzi, Wang Yue and the others felt sad.
"Leaf Mountain Sect … Leaf Mountain Sect …" Wang Yue took a few steps forward and staggered, almost falling to the ground.
Du Fengzi was shocked and quickly supported him.
"What the hell is going on!?" He asked anxiously.
