Chapter 1215: The Thunder Wastes
Chapter 1215: The Thunder Wastes
Deep underground, a complex network of passages twists and turns, forming an intricate subterranean world.
The passages are several dozen zhang wide, with smooth inner walls as if something long and slender frequently passes through.
At the end of one particular passage, countless array patterns light up, and four figures quietly appear.
The four individuals exude a profound aura, all at the Nascent Soul Realm, and one of them, Lu Xuan, recognizes He Kun, the person responsible for guiding hermits in the outer void from the Obsidian Pavilion.
"He Dao You, the Demon Realm hasn't been peaceful lately. It's best if you stay in my cave mansion for a while longer until the turmoil subsides."
A giant, translucent snake head slithers into the cave mansion, and on top of it stands a charming woman.
The woman plays with her long hair, twirling her fingers, and a hissing sound resonates as if thousands of snakes are crying out.
"Also, to maintain our mutual trust, it's best to bring fewer human hermits during this time."
"She Dao You, what major event has occurred?"
He Kun asks curiously, while the other three remain silent, each using their artifacts and secret techniques to conceal their appearances and auras.
The woman before them is an 8th-grade serpent demon from the Demon Realm, who has been cooperating with the Obsidian Pavilion for many years, and the teleportation array is established in her cave mansion.
"You'll have to ask the Obsidian Pavilion and the other organizations."
"Recently, a human hermit captured a 7th-grade dragon softshell turtle and a Glowing Spirit Crane with 7th-grade potential."
"The continuous capture of 7th-grade demons has shaken the various demon domains, and to prevent similar situations from happening again, the search efforts have intensified tenfold."
"Even my cave mansion has been searched several times."
"If you go out rashly, you might expose yourselves, and at that time, don't blame me for not warning you beforehand."
The serpent demoness speaks gently.
"Capturing a 7th-grade great demon alive?"
He Kun and the other three are astonished.
Defeating a 7th-grade great demon is within their capabilities, and they are even confident in killing one, but capturing one alive is much more challenging.
After all, absolute suppression is required to completely subdue the opponent within a very short time, and any slight deviation in any step might lead to different outcomes.
"That Dao You is truly bold and reckless..."
An elder among the three can't help but sigh.
Human hermits often enter the Demon Realm in search of precious treasures, usually seeking materials from the bodies of great demons.
As a result, there are frequent life-and-death battles with demons, and the number of demons killed has accumulated over time, but these battles typically occur in hidden places, and it's rare to openly provoke the numerous great demons in the Demon Realm.
"She Dao You, do you have any information about that hermit?"
"No, I only know that he is proficient in concealment secrets and possesses an extremely rare confinement artifact. He also has a rare spatial art and a unique Thunder Rhinoceros guardian with strength far beyond that of ordinary 8th-grade demon beasts."
The serpent demoness slowly shakes her head.
"Only those from the great clans, Nascent Soul True Monarchs, might be able to accomplish such a feat."
He Kun says with a grave expression.
Among the four Nascent Soul cultivators present, it's unlikely that any of them can meet one or two of these conditions, let alone satisfy several at once.
"That's right, the great clans have unfathomable foundations, and ordinary Nascent Soul True Monarchs can't possibly achieve such feats."
An elder nods in agreement.
"As long as they weren't brought in by the Obsidian Pavilion."
The serpent demoness smiles, her long green hair standing tall, resembling countless tiny snakes gathered together.
"He Dao You, we paid a high price to have the Obsidian Pavilion bring us here, and now that this has happened, it will seriously affect our future plans.
"Obsidian Pavilion should give us an explanation, shouldn't they?"
After understanding the situation, a young man with an ordinary appearance questioned sternly.
Although the other two didn't speak, their attitudes clearly leaned towards what the young man said.
"Alright, this time, the Demon Realm is offering a half-price discount, and at the same time, they are providing a relatively safe and secluded place for the three of you to choose from."
He Kun immediately made a decision.
"Are you implying that we came here to hide from the demon races?" The young man scoffed.
"What a streak of bad luck," sighed an old man helplessly. Then, the three of them glanced at each other and rode their escape lights, each entering different passages.
"It really is bad luck," He Kun couldn't help but feel bitter. For the sake of Obsidian Pavilion's reputation, he had no choice but to accept their rude behavior.
"Senior She, thank you for the reminder. I'll put in a good word for you in front of my senior brother."
"Additionally, please hide the teleportation array well. I'll bring over a few cultivators who want to leave through Obsidian Pavilion."
"Rest assured, I've been running this place for many years. Unless a Demon Saint personally comes, it's hard for anyone to discover the location of the array."
The snake woman chuckled and directly merged into the giant snake's head, disappearing in an instant.
...
At the edge of the Demon Domain, endless thunder raged, filling the entire area with a violent aura. Even a Nascent Soul True Monarch who entered might have their physical body and spiritual self destroyed, resulting in death and the dissipation of their cultivation.
"This is the entrance to the Thunder Wastes."
"The Thunder Wastes is a strange space formed by the overlapping of two domains. Inside, there is endless thunder, making it extremely unstable."
"Only Nascent Soul True Monarchs who are proficient in Thunder Techniques or possess Thunder-type artifacts can enter. As for the secret realm of the Thunder Rhinoceros clan, only we know about its existence."
Within the Tiny Universe Scroll, the Green Horned Thunder Beast transmitted a sound to Lu Xuan.
"You can consider it an advanced version of the Thunder and Mars Cave, but it's even more unstable and dangerous."
Lu Xuan curiously gazed at the endless thunder.
"You can understand it that way."
"Junior has a question. The secret realm of the Thunder Rhinoceros is within the Demon Realm, and there are many high-level demons and beasts here. Why did you choose the Thunder and Mars Cave as a base?"
"Entering that secret realm repeatedly isn't very useful. I obtained the inheritance I needed in one go."
"I've only entered it twice in total. The last time was probably over two thousand years ago."
The Green Horned Thunder Beast leaped out of the Tiny Universe Scroll, his expression complex as he looked at the world of thunder ahead.
"As for the Demon Realm, with so many demons gathered, there will be all sorts of unsavory incidents. I chose the Thunder and Mars Cave to seek some peace and quiet."
"I never expected that, by chance, I would meet you, Lu, and even find a place to stay in your personal space."
The Green Horned Thunder Beast spoke softly, his voice like rolling thunder, echoing into the endless thunder in the distance.
After accompanying Lu Xuan into the Demon Realm, the Green Horned Thunder Beast witnessed Lu Xuan's many extraordinary abilities, artifacts... all of which were far beyond his apparent identity as a Spirit Plant Cultivator.
He even saw unorthodox methods that didn't align with Lu Xuan's identity as an orthodox cultivator.
However, the Green Horned Thunder Beast had reached the end of its life and had no time to bother with such trivial matters. Moreover, it had a very flexible moral compass and had received great kindness from Lu Xuan on more than one occasion. So, it turned a blind eye, pretending not to have seen anything.
"Follow me inside."
It let out a low roar, and its body surged with pale green and silver-white thunder light, forming a thundercloud that enveloped Lu Xuan.
