Puppet Sect.
The two sleazy heads huddled together.
“Why are you looking for me? I’m not going!”
Shi Jian shook his head like a rattle drum and replied firmly.
“This is going to be an amazing tomb,”
Little Fatty took out a crumpled beast hide and said mysteriously, “Lin Xuanji sent us this treasure map and invited us to explore it! Think about it, if even he can’t do it, how incredible is this tomb?”
Back in the Dao Inheritance Ground, Lin Xuanji found the Astral Dragon Sputum Lair and entered the tomb on his own.
He was also an expert in this regard!
Pouting his lips, Shi Jian replied, “Since when were you so close to Lin Xuanji? Why didn’t I know?”
“You’re saying that? Back in Myriad Phenomenon City, we fought shoulder to shoulder with him and we had some ties,”
Little Fatty argued hurriedly.
“I’m not going! You’re definitely setting me up again!”
Shi Jian shook his head. “All these years, I’ve accompanied you to many tombs. Even if we don’t talk about life and death, we’ve gone through thick and thin together. Fatty, you’re way too dishonest. You never share good stuff with me!”
“I’ll definitely share it with you this time round!”
Little Fatty replied with a stern expression, “I swear I’ll definitely give it to you if I find something good this time round!”
“Alright, I’ll trust you one more time,”
Hesitating for a moment, Shi Jian took the treasure map and stared at it for a long time before frowning. “This place is in the Heaven Expanding Mountain Range. It’s quite close to Enigma Palace!”
“It’s fine, there’s still Lin Xuanji, right?”
Little Fatty waved it off. “With him backing us, nobody will know!”
…
Pure Maiden Sect.
In the room, a charming woman sat by the window. She wore a gentle white Daoist robe that accentuated her perfect figure. It was curvy and exquisite.
The woman propped her chin on one hand, looking distracted with a hint of worry on her face.
“Auntie Gu, you’re looking for me?”
Right then, a girl in pink entered the room.
The moment the girl in pink entered the room, it was as though the entire room had turned brighter!
Even the beautiful woman sitting there paled in comparison in front of the girl in pink.
The girl in pink was none other than Demoness Ji.
The beautiful woman sitting there was Gu Xi, the former chief steward of the Sky Treasure Auction House in the capital of Great Zhou.
Over the years, Gu Xi had already entered the Void Reversion realm and became a Void Reversion Dao Being.
However, Demoness Ji had far surpassed her cultivation realm!
Demoness Ji was already at the Conjoint Body realm!
As the Pure Maiden of the fiend sects, Demoness Ji had sufficient cultivation resources and had obtained multiple great opportunities over the years.
For example, the inheritance of Fairy Ling Long from the Human Emperor’s Palace and the complete Pure Maiden Sutra in the Dao Inheritance Ground had allowed Demoness Ji’s cultivation to advance tremendously!
She was lauded as the number one Pure Maiden of the fiend sects for the past hundred thousand years!
“Auntie Gu, why did you lose so much weight?”
Demoness Ji frowned slightly and felt her heart wrench.
Although her current cultivation and status far surpassed Gu Xi, she still had a deep relationship with the latter and did not neglect her at all.
“It’s nothing much,”
Gu Xi forced a smile.
“You’re worried about the Asura?”
Demoness Ji sighed internally and could not help but ask.
Gu Xi lowered her head slightly in silent acknowledgment.
Demoness Ji knew that many years ago, Gu Xi had a deep crush on Yan Beichen.
Later on, after hearing some rumors about Yan Beichen and Qin Pianran, Gu Xi was heartbroken and could not let go for many years.
Later on, Qin Pianran died and the true Asura was born. The battle of Heaven and Earth Valley shocked the entire world!
Gu Xi’s cultivation realm was not high and she was not qualified to head to Heaven and Earth Valley. However, when she heard the Asura’s condition, she was secretly worried.
“Yaoyan, I know his personality best,”
After a long silence, Gu Xi said, “Heavenly Secrets killed Qin Pianran. He’ll definitely look for Heavenly Secrets at Enigma Palace!”
“Yaoyan, I’m begging you, go take a look at Enigma Palace. If you see him in trouble, please lend him a hand,”
Gu Xi’s voice trembled and her eyes reddened. “Among the people I know, you’re the only one who can help him.”
There was no way the fiend sects would step in for something as such.
Who would go against Enigma Palace for the sake of a lunatic who had no regard for any relationships and was not in the right mind?
“Auntie Gu, don’t worry. I’ll make a move right away and rush to Enigma Palace,”
Demoness Ji agreed without hesitation.
Pondering for a moment, she said, “However, given my combat strength, I’m afraid I won’t be able to go against the powerful Enigma Palace either. I can only try my best.”
“Yaoyan, you must be careful not to implicate yourself. If anything goes wrong, abandon him!”
Gu Xi said resolutely.
She was worried about the Asura.
However, she did not wish for Demoness Ji to end up dying because of the Asura either.
“It’s nothing,”
Demoness Ji smiled gently and shook her head. “Enigma Palace won’t dare to hurt me.”
…
Half a month later, at the Heaven Expanding Mountain Range.
The Heaven Expanding Mountain Range was filled with thick fog all year round and Enigma Palace was situated within!
Ever since the ancient era, the world had changed on Tianhuang Mainland and countless battles broke out, destroying endless sects—even super sects were not spared.
However, Enigma Palace had always stood tall in the Heaven Expanding Mountain Range!
Not only that, up till the ancient era, there had never been anyone or any sect or faction that dared to cause trouble for Enigma Palace in the Heaven Expanding Mountain Range!
This was a sacred ground for the human race!
However, on this day, a person arrived in the Heaven Expanding Mountain Range.
The person wore a black robe and his white hair draped over his shoulders. His eyes were pitch-black and he had a cold expression as he walked over slowly. Dragging a saber that was coiled with fiend qi in his right hand, he drew a series of sparks on the ground!
No matter who it was, they would feel a torrential hatred and killing intent when they saw that person!
The Asura, Yan Beichen!
Yan Beichen walked through the thick fog.
The thick fog was extremely confusing and could even block spirit consciousnesses.
Cultivators with lesser cultivation realms would get lost in the fog, let alone locate Enigma Palace.
However, that thick fog was useless against Yan Beichen’s pitch-black eyes.
He continued forward towards Enigma Palace!
The Hatred Fiend Saber seemed to have sensed something and turned extremely excited at that moment, trembling and buzzing on the ground!
Before long, Yan Beichen paused and looked up.
Not far ahead, on a continuous mountain range, there were ancient Dao Palaces that resembled stars in the skies.
Every single Dao Palace seemed to possess a mysterious secret!
There was a gigantic stele erected further ahead with two bold and vigorous words written on it—Enigma Palace!
The words exuded an extremely terrifying might!
As Yan Beichen approached, the pressure became increasingly obvious. In the end, even he could not withstand it!
Right now, Yan Beichen was already at the late-stage Conjoint Body realm!
However, he could not advance a single step in front of the stele!
This stele had a powerful origin!
The words on the stele were written by the Eternal Human Emperor personally in the past!
The words of the Human Emperor were eternal!
