Within the image, Elder Feng’s voice echoed once more.
"Of course, this is all for later discussion. Years ago, I discovered an ancient journal and deduced that the Eastern Domain of the Human Race’s Lingyun Mansion contains a great secret, or perhaps incredible opportunities."
"In ancient times, it was merely a Third-level Cultivation Country. Even back then, the Old Peng King had sensed its extraordinary nature and quietly joined a small sect here to search in secrecy."
"Besides him, other Demon Emperors have also visited, including the Golden Crow, the Suanni, the Old Bull Demon, the Seven-Colored Divine Sparrow, and others."
"Thus, I came back a second time to find traces left by our predecessors, hoping to gain some fortune."
"But unexpectedly, just as I found some clues, I was ambushed by Xuanyuan Shuo. Luckily, I used a Secret Technique to escape here, but my Storage Bag and other items were taken during the battle."
"Now, I have hired two humans to help me find Top-Grade Spirit Stones for recovery. Incidentally, they found an entire Suanni Bone, which undoubtedly confirms the journal’s records."
Elder Feng spoke with excitement on his face.
"I am leaving here, but to be safe, I will leave the Celestial Demon Order here."
"My Cave Mansion is set with a Five-Color Restriction, and only this Token can open the Secret Treasure Dark Room and other areas within."
"If forced, everything will turn to ashes, and of course, you little brats won’t be able to break in either."
Elder Feng forced a smile but quickly had a serious expression.
"If anything catastrophic happens, I will leave clues through Blood Curse Skills on the enemy. The Old Ape will understand and find this place."
"Of course, the opponents are just two at the Nascent Soul Realm, so there should be no issue. Perhaps I’ll return soon to retrieve it, so that’s it."
The image abruptly stopped, leaving the two in silence.
Perhaps Yan Xiaohu was not very aware, but Zhou Qing knew much more.
The Eastern Domain indeed seemed out of the ordinary.
In the Pocket World’s eerie forbidden area, there were remnants of the protective measures once left by Grand General Zhongli Bo, the Corpse Wax Crow, the Natural Thunder Pool, the Suanni Bone, the Old Peng King...
Zhou Qing pondered curiously.
Yan Xiaohu looked at Zhou Qing and said, "So this feathered creature purposely left the Blood Curse on you. Once captured by the Old Ape, they’ll Soul Search you first and then come for the Token."
Zhou Qing nodded and then looked at the Token in the box, suddenly smiling.
The key to the Five-Color Restriction, who knows what treasures a Spirit Severing Realm mansion might have?
It indeed could be a great opportunity.
At that time, Second Uncle would surely take him to the border, and they might visit the Great Demon Mountain.
"Old Four, we should hurry back to the academy. Haven’t you heard that many Demons have sneaked in too? Some might be from the Great Demon Mountain."
"After all, their Demon Emperor has died, they will surely come. If they get close and discover something..."
Yan Xiaohu spoke with a face full of concern.
Zhou Qing then put away the Spiritual Tablet, exhaled with excitement, and said, "Alright!"
After clearing their traces, they hurried back to Lingyun Mansion as quickly as possible.
Entering the Lingyun Mansion territory again, the city was even more bustling than before, brimming with vigor and many powerful cultivators.
Nascent Soul Realm, Divinity Transformation Realm, were everywhere.
It seemed the attraction of a Spirit Severing Realm residence had drawn people from the entire Eight Prefectures and Seventy-Two Mansions.
On their way to the Central Square, Yan Xiaohu’s eyes were drawn to a few familiar figures ahead.
"It’s Xuanyuan Yichen and Xuanyuan Muqian, along with several Divinity Transformation Realm Guardians from the Taiqing Sect!"
Yan Xiaohu pointed ahead.
Zhou Qing glanced with curiosity.
"Should we greet them?" Yan Xiaohu whispered.
Zhou Qing shook his head, frowning slightly.
Curious about their visit, they first met Master Lu Yuanzhi at the White Jade Taixu Courtyard as advised by Lu Yaoyao. Lu said he was displeased with these royal juniors, and after receiving word from Xuanyuan Shuo, they left that very evening.
It’s been half a year. Why are they still here?
Moreover, this fellow always pulls out things from a Fifth-level Cultivation Country, so it’s best to avoid contact to stay out of unnecessary trouble.
The two detoured, had a simple meal, and after resting, headed straight for the Teleportation Plaza.
But upon arrival, the sight stunned them.
The Central Square was teeming with people, a dense crowd stretching endlessly.
The Teleportation Array glowed frequently, each time sending in a batch of people who looked around with excitement and curiosity. Orıginal content can be found at NoveI★Fire.net
Leaving people formed long lines, with endless noise and chatter.
Zhou Qing observed for a while, noting that for every thirty batches coming in, only one outflow was arranged.
"This will take forever," Yan Xiaohu said anxiously.
Zhou Qing sighed, "Because of the Spirit Severing Realm Demon Emperor’s fall, everyone’s here seeking opportunity. We might wait for days."
As they prepared to find a spot to queue, a tempting voice called out, "Hey, isn’t that Yan Xiaohu?"
They turned to see Li Shitao and Xiao Cancan approaching with bright smiles.
