Yi Tian had taken a blow from the Body Integration Stage Lu Xiao, yet he was still able to survive. This in itself represented his extraordinary strength. When his gaze locked onto Hang Chi, he could clearly feel the fear in Hang Chi's heart, gradually revealing itself from head to toe.
At this time, Hang Chi's face was filled with surprise, unwillingness, and other strange expressions. The way he looked at him also became very strange. Yi Tian slowly flew towards him. Then, he spread out the spiritual pressure on his body and directly locked onto the other party with his Divine Sense.
After ten breaths of time, he asked, "Fellow Daoist Hang Chi, you are still a Buddhist Sect cultivator. Although you are from the Hinayana Sect, attacking my Martial Nephew for no reason is not justifiable."
"Fellow Daoist, please don't be angry. Back then, I was anxious to escape, so I used this method," Hang Chi argued, "In fact, I also had no other choice. Otherwise, the Ghost King's subordinates would definitely harass me."
"Then why did you come to the Ghost Realm? As far as I know, regardless of whether it is the Mahayana Sect or the Hinayana Sect, at most, they would purify ghosts and send them into the cycle of reincarnation. Could it be that Fellow Daoist came here to earn merit? "Yi Tian sneered. Previously, he had heard from Liao Zhi that this Monk Hang Chi had come uninvited. During his time in the Ghost Realm, he had specifically searched for wandering ghosts to purify. It didn't seem like he was here to purify them.
Seeing that Xing Chi had a difficult expression and was unable to reply for a long time, Yi Tian knew that Xing Chi had a guilty conscience. Thus, he used the Eight Sounds of Heavenly Thunder and mixed it into his voice, "Fellow Daoist Xing Chi, could it be that you have a guilty conscience and do not dare to answer my question directly? Or could it be that you want to stall for time until reinforcements arrive? To tell the truth, even if you had reinforcements, I could have killed you in an instant. I have already given you enough face by stalling with you until now because we are both from the Buddhist Sect. "
As soon as he said this, Hang Chi suddenly shivered. He turned around and helplessly said, "To be honest, I came from the Netherworld this time. I am in charge of collecting ghosts to refine soul beads."
"Soul beads? What does this have to do with the Nether Realm? As far as I know, the Nether Realm is a place where the alien races gather. The cultivation techniques they practice there are also relatively special. Could it be that they need Soul Orbs to cultivate? "Yi Tian asked.
"That's not it either," Hang Chi replied. "I've traveled through the Nether Realm before and got along with the foreign races there quite well. It's just that I've accepted a mission, and the person who issued the mission is the Lord of the Netherworld. "
"Interesting. The exalted Nether Plane Lord would surely not casually issue a quest. Additionally, this matter must be related to a high-level cultivator. Given your connections, did you not hear anything about it?" said Yi Tian after assessing Fang Chi.
"If I tell you what I know, will fellow daoist let me go?" Hang Chi hurriedly asked.
Sure enough, there was a problem. Yi Tian thought about it and decided that there was no need for him to start a feud with the people of the Hinayana Sect. Today's matter would end here. After that, everyone went their separate ways. Perhaps when they met again, it would be another scene.
After thinking about it, he nodded and replied, "In that case, as long as you tell me what you know, I can consider letting you live."
"Can I swear a Buddhist Demon Oath?" Hang Chi asked.
Seeing him being so cautious, Yi Tian did not beat around the bush. After swearing the oath, he saw Hang Chi's expression soften slightly. Then, he heard him say through voice transmission, "I've only heard about this matter from hearsay. The Nether Lord definitely does not need things like Soul Beads to cultivate at the bottom of the Nether Realm's abyss."
"Then how did you guys receive this mission?" Yi Tian asked in return.
"Fellow daoist, listen to me slowly," said Hang Chi. "According to the upper echelons of the Nether Realm, it seems that the Great Sage of the Devil Realm had descended a hundred years ago. This mission appeared out of nowhere after he came here. "
"The Great Sage of the Devil Realm," Yi Tian's expression tightened after hearing this. He thought to himself, 'It shouldn't be the Devil Saint Crown Prince Qiu Yu, or some other Mahayana cultivator. It seems that this matter is really interesting. '
After asking for the details, Hang Chi could not answer. After all, the Great Sage of the Devil Realm was not someone ordinary cultivators could come into contact with. However, there was one thing that Yi Tian suspected. The time when the Great Sage of the Devil Realm descended to the Nether Realm coincided with the time when he met Jie Ding in One Blossom World.
Could it be that after he took away the Devil Saint Crown Prince Qiu Yu's secret in the Spirit Realm for no reason, it directly led to the Great Sage of the Devil Realm going to the Nether Realm? After thinking about it, he felt that he was overthinking. The difference in strength between the two sides was too big. His unintentional mistake should not have caused such serious consequences.
Seeing that Yi Tian was silent, Hang Chi did not dare to leave at will. He was afraid that if he angered the other party, he would turn hostile. After a while, Yi Tian's Divine Sense discovered that there seemed to be several fluctuations of spiritual pressure coming from the direction where Xuan Wu escaped.
It was obviously the reinforcements that Xuan Wu had found from the Ghost King. After turning around to look at Hang Chi, Yi Tian waved his hand and signaled him to leave quickly. Seeing this, Hang Chi hurriedly thanked him. Then, he turned around and used his escape technique to escape.
After a while, Yi Tian used his escape technique to fly in the direction of the reinforcements. After flying a thousand miles, he saw three black lights flying straight towards him.
Not long after, when they arrived, he found that the person in the lead was Liao Zhi, who he had seen before. Behind him were his two assistants, who were also at the Mid Deity Transformation Stage.
After the two sides met, Yi Tian cupped his fist and said, "I wonder if Martial Nephew Xuan Wu has reached a safe place?"
"Master Yi, there is no need to worry. Young Master Xuan Wu is the envoy sent by the Buddhist Realm, so we will naturally treat him well. May I ask how many enemies came and where they are now? "Liao Zhi returned the greeting.
"Monk Hang Chi has already left. As for the three ghost cultivators guarding the Yellow Springs, two of them died here." Yi Tian did not beat around the bush and gave a brief summary.
After listening, Liao Zhi's expression did not change, but his eyes were secretly sizing him up. Yi Tian simply reminded him and asked, "Is there a cultivator named Lu Xiao among the Yellow Springs guards?"
"That's the commander of the Yellow Springs guards, a Mid Deity Transformation Stage cultivator." Liao Zhi smiled bitterly and said, "Does Master Yi know him?"
"I've fought with his clone. His strength is indeed extraordinary," Yi Tian said lightly.
These words were no different from a bolt from the blue in the ears of Liao Zhi and the others. They were familiar with the Ghost Realm, so of course, they knew the weight of these words. The three of them showed some shock in their eyes at the same time. After a while, Liao Zhi said respectfully, "Master Yi is an expert of the Great Thunderclap Temple and has the responsibility of guarding Young Master Xuan Wu. We also admire you for this."
"Of course, I'll do my best to fulfill the order of the sect. Of course, I'm duty-bound. Otherwise, it will be difficult to explain to the seniors of the sect when I go back," Yi Tian replied. At this time, he had fully immersed himself in his role. Anyway, since he had pushed the blame to the Great Thunderclap Temple, they would not get to the bottom of it.
