Chapter 386: The Cultivation Grounds of the Yuxu Lineage! (4k4)
"What do you mean?"
Su Yang's eyes, once as still as dead water, now rippled with a hint of emotion.
Qin Zheng calmly continued, "These demons slaughtered your disciples, do you not wish to exterminate them?"
Upon hearing these words, Su Yang's eyes instantly filled with raging flames.
But in the next instant, the flames dimmed, and Su Yang spoke again, "I can't do that."
"They, like me, are from the Floating Thousand Grand Realm. They belong to a demon clan known as the Demon Abyss."
"From what I know, the one you just killed was only their Third Elder, a Taiyi Real Realm cultivator."
"But their Grand Chancellor and Second Vice-Chancellor are both Taiyi Spirit Realm experts. No matter what I do, I can't kill these two."
Even though they are both at the Taiyi Realm.
However, each minor realm is separated by an insurmountable chasm.
Not to mention the Taiyi Void Realm and the Taiyi Spirit Realm.
At Qin Zheng's words, his eyes flickered slightly, and after a moment, he spoke again, "What if I help you?"
As soon as these words left his mouth, Su Yang immediately looked up at Qin Zheng, a hint of hope flashing in his eyes.
He alone couldn't exterminate the Demon Abyss, but if this senior before him lent a hand, the possibility would be vastly different!
Just a moment ago, the Demon Abyss's Third Elder, who had entered the cave mansion not long ago, was punched and had half his demon body blown up.
The Taiyi Real Realm cultivators who had besieged him were as weak as helpless children in his hands, without the slightest power to resist.
So, the strength of this person was most likely the most powerful Taiyi Spirit Realm expert in the Taiyi One Realm!
If this person helped him, there might truly be a chance to exterminate the Demon Abyss!
However,
They had never met before, and he wondered why this person would risk their life to confront a powerful force with two Taiyi Spirit Realm experts.
A hint of doubt flashed in Su Yang's eyes, but only for a fleeting moment before he dispelled it.
Regardless of the senior's intentions, as long as he could truly help Su Yang exterminate the Demon Abyss and avenge his wife and disciples, he was willing to pay any price!
"Thank you, Senior Qin Zheng!"
Su Yang expressed his gratitude sincerely.
Qin Zheng nodded and continued, "Then, tell me what you know about this fragment of the Heavenly Palace."
The reason he agreed to help Su Yang exterminate the Demon Abyss was to obtain information about this fragment of the Heavenly Palace from him.
After all, according to Su Yang, this fragment of the Heavenly Palace contained countless opportunities, and if he encountered someone with dishonest intentions, they might not tell him the truth.
But the person before him was consumed by hatred for the demon race, with no other thoughts in his eyes, and he wouldn't dare to lie.
Moreover, slaying demons and eliminating monsters, collecting merits, was something Qin Zheng had been doing anyway.
After listening to Su Yang, Qin Zheng pondered for a moment before speaking, "This fragment of the Heavenly Palace might be a piece of the Heavenly Palace that fell into the Yunlai Grand Realm."
Qin Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly at these words.
In that instant, he suddenly recalled the mirage of the Heavenly Palace he had seen falling from the heavens during the Spirit Ruins Realm.
So, was this fragment of the Heavenly Palace the same as that mirage?
Su Yang continued, "During the great war between humans and demons, even the immortal deities from the Nine Heavens joined the battle, causing a corner of the Heavenly Palace to be shattered and fall."
"This fragment of the Heavenly Palace was refined by a powerful human cultivator from the Yunlai Grand Realm. Using the power of the Heavenly Palace, they sealed and suppressed the Great Dharmaraja demons who had invaded their realm."
"So, within this fragment of the Heavenly Palace, there should be immortal artifacts and techniques from the Nine Heavens, even the supreme opportunity of the Great Dharmaraja's arts."
Su Yang slowly revealed everything he knew to Qin Zheng.
Finally, after a brief pause, he added, "I suspect that the one sealed in the Yunlai Grand Realm might be about to break free from the seal."
"In the current Primordial Cavern Heaven, there isn't a single living Great Dharmaraja, only some powerful forces possess Great Dharmaraja-level divine artifacts."
If a living Great Dharmaraja were to appear, it would undoubtedly cause a huge upheaval in the Primordial Cavern Heaven!
Especially if it were a demon Great Dharmaraja!
Qin Zheng's eyes lit up as he realized something from Su Yang's words.
During the war between humans and demons, even the immortal deities from the Nine Heavens had participated.
So, it was possible that the immortal deities had taken sides in the war.
Qin Zheng felt as if he had grasped something, but then a doubt arose in his heart.
If the immortal deities had taken sides, whose side would they be on?
From the current situation, it's likely that the demons had the upper hand. Not only did they defeat the humans, but they might have also suppressed and eliminated the immortal deities, which is why they haven't appeared since."
No!
Immortal Deities tower above both the human and demon races, how could they be suppressed by the demon race?
So, what exactly happened back then?
What is the truth?
The more Qin Zheng delved into his thoughts, the more he felt the vastness of the fog, making it increasingly difficult to glimpse the truth.
At this moment, Su Yang's voice echoed again, "Based on what I've seen and heard on my journey here, combined with ancient records I've read before, and previous rumors and speculations..."
"The owner of this Heavens Palace fragment is very likely a descendant of the Yuxu lineage!"
Hearing these words, Qin Zheng's brows furrowed slightly, and he looked at Su Yang with a hint of surprise.
Regarding this, he had already formed some speculations in his mind. Indeed, the cultivation techniques in the cave mansion earlier were filled with the essence of the Yuxu lineage.
However, this person before him, a Taiyi Void Realm cultivator, seemed to have gained nothing, yet he could still sense the aura of this place.
It seemed that he didn't come from some minor sect or lineage, and his background was probably not simple either.
This thought flashed through Qin Zheng's mind, and he spoke again, "Before we kill the two chancellors of the Demon Abyss, try to find the Jade Purity Statue for me."
Qin Zheng had a premonition that after finding the Jade Purity Statue, there was a high chance of obtaining the latter part of the Primordial Golden Seal.
If he acquired the cultivation method, he could immediately start refining the Jade Will and Immortal Slaying Sword Intent in the Dao Palace.
With two of the Palace's Supreme Treasures, he could immediately step into the Great Demon Realm!
Hearing Qin Zheng's words, Su Yang was slightly puzzled but nodded.
After all, if his speculation was correct, and this place was indeed the cultivation ground of a Yuxu lineage descendant, there must be a Jade Purity Statue here.
So, he reached out and took out a delicate and exquisite compass, enveloped in dense treasure aura.
Su Yang chanted an incantation, made hand seals, and continuously channeled strands of Immortal Qi into the Treasure Seeking Compass.
After a moment, the compass stirred and pointed in a certain direction.
After confirming the direction, Su Yang turned to Qin Zheng and said, "Senior, please wait a moment."
Finishing his words, he turned around, and as he performed hand seals, the area was immersed in a crimson bloodbath, slowly lifting off the ground and flying into the sky.
Then, the blood slowly separated, condensing into thirty-seven clusters, which transformed into thirty-seven blood orbs.
Su Yang solemnly collected the thirty-seven blood orbs and the intact head on the ground, then turned to Qin Zheng and said solemnly, "Senior, let's go."
Qin Zheng nodded slightly.
"This is indeed the abode of an Immortal Deity. How could there be opportunities in these mountains?"
On a mountain in an Immortal Land.
In front was a woman in a light yellow robe, speaking while carefully scanning the surroundings.
Behind her was a tall and slender woman with a cool demeanor, watching her senior sister's cautious behavior with a speechless expression.
"Senior Sister, what opportunities could there be in these barren mountains? Besides us, who else would come here?"
She couldn't understand why her senior sister would bring her to these unremarkable mountains, where opportunities were unlikely to be found.
Even if it was a Heavens Palace fragment, an Immortal Deity's abode, and the mountains were Immortal Mountains, there would still be no difference, and opportunities wouldn't exist here.
After she spoke without restraint, the woman in the light yellow robe turned around, placing her index finger on her lips.
"Shh!"
Yao Xi glanced around, as if confirming there was no one else, then whispered, "Don't underestimate these Immortal Mountains."
"According to ancient records, powerful Immortal Deities like to reside in such tranquil Immortal Mountains!"
"Senior Sister, I have a premonition that the Immortal Mountain beneath our feet will definitely have a great opportunity!"
Ding Ning, speechless, said, "The ancient records you mentioned, are they something like 'The Secret Records of Seeking Immortals' and 'The Unreliable Daoist's Travelogue'?"
After a light sigh, she continued, "Senior Sister, do you really believe those fabricated stories to be true?"
She really wanted to go and seek opportunities herself.
Hearing this, Yao Xi immediately jumped and said, "It's not the 'Unreliable Daoist', it's the 'Non-Action Daoist', in the 'Non-Action Daoist's Travelogue'!"
Ding Ning didn't argue, stopping in her tracks, hesitating, "Senior Sister, I..."
Boom!
Before she could finish, her words were interrupted by a violent tremor beneath her feet.
Immediately after, a dazzling treasure light burst forth from the mountainside.
Ding Ning's expression froze.
But Yao Xi was overjoyed, "I said there would be an opportunity here!"
"Let's go! Hurry! Don't let others take the lead!"
Grabbing the dazed Ding Ning, she stepped and transformed into a stream of light, rushing towards the source of the treasure light.
The treasure light from the mountainside grew in intensity.
The Immortal Mountain shook violently, and the radiant treasure light illuminated the four directions, like a great sun setting on the mountain peak.
When the two women reached the source of the treasure light, they saw a cave entrance formed by a collapse, from which the treasure light was gushing out.
Ding Ning watched this scene, somewhat incredulous, and glanced at her senior sister.
Is it true that whatever is said, comes into being?
What kind of dog's nose can even sniff out opportunities?
Yao Xi's face was filled with pride, and she raised her eyebrows triumphantly at her junior sister, unaware of her junior sister's thoughts about her.
And in the next moment—
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Like hungry wolves sensing blood, powerful auras rapidly descended upon this place.
Ding Ning's expression turned solemn, and she grabbed her senior sister with her other hand, quickly rushing into the cave mouth that was emitting bursts of treasure light.
Then, in the blink of an eye—
More than ten powerful figures descended, their gazes all fixed on the cave mouth emitting the treasure light.
"Among these endless immortal mountains, there's indeed an immortal's cave mansion where someone is cultivating in seclusion!"
A tiger-headed man with a burly stature spoke with delight.
Behind him were a group of beast-headed demons.
On the other side were several powerful humans.
After landing, they immediately took action, setting up formation banners near the cave mouth.
After a faint glow was released, the cave mouth that had been emitting continuous treasure light became dark and obscure, no different from ordinary cave mouths.
Seeing this, the tiger-headed man laughed and said, "I didn't think of this, but you insects do have some brains."
Among the humans, the leader was a middle-aged man with white temples and a tall stature.
He seemed to ignore the tiger-headed man's words and changed the topic, saying, "We need to act fast; someone has already gone in."
The tiger-headed man grinned viciously, his face filled with cruelty, and slowly said, "What's the point of going in first? If we want the treasures inside, we need to come out alive."
Hearing this, the group of demons behind him burst into laughter.
On the other side, the humans also smiled, as if this answer was to their liking.
"We agreed that the treasures in this cave mansion would be divided into three parts for you and seven for us. If you don't agree, I'll kill you first and take all the treasures inside."
At this moment, the tiger-headed man turned to the middle-aged man with white temples.
Behind him, the group of demons stared at the man with tiger-like gazes, each of them emanating a dangerous aura.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man's eyes flashed with a cold light, but his face remained smiling.
He smiled and said, "Of course, this was what we agreed upon from the beginning."
The tiger-headed man nodded and said, "Since you still remember the agreement, I won't waste more words. Let's go in now."
After speaking, he gestured to the demons behind him, and they quickly rushed into the cave mouth, leaving only two demons behind.
One had a rat head, and the other a fox head; their auras were formidable, only slightly weaker than the tiger-headed man.
"We need to leave at least two to guard this cave mouth to ensure no one escapes from inside."
The tiger-headed man said with a smile.
"Tiger Immortal Lord is indeed thoughtful."
The middle-aged man flattered.
"Alright, let's go in."
The tiger-headed man spoke and took the lead, stepping into the cave mouth.
The middle-aged man nodded and then turned his gaze to the other side, where the two demons with tiger-like gazes were standing. They smiled and said,
"The treasure light was too bright earlier, so there might be others who saw it. It'll be hard work for you two to block them."
After speaking, he also stepped into the cave mouth.
The remaining humans followed closely, leaving only the two demons behind.
"These humans have ulterior motives."
The fox-headed demon spoke first.
"Don't worry, they won't be able to get out."
The rat-headed demon laughed scornfully and said disdainfully.
Then, the two demons sat at the cave mouth, cautiously sensing the surroundings.
Although this place was secluded, the treasure light earlier was dazzling, and it was possible that others might have seen it.
However, even after some time, there was no sign of any disturbance, and the two demons gradually relaxed.
Until a moment later, the air in the void trembled.
Suddenly, two figures tore through the heavens, instantly appearing before the two demons.
The rat-headed demon's expression turned solemn, and he spoke in a cold voice, "The opportunity here has been seized by us, the Ten Thousand Demon Cave. If you know what's good for you, scram!"
The fox-headed demon beside him remained cold, emitting a powerful and dangerous aura.
"Ten Thousand Demon Cave?"
The human with the golden-patterned robe spoke, sounding somewhat surprised.
The rat-headed demon looked proud, about to say something more, when he suddenly sensed a gust of wind.
Then, his vision spun, and he saw two headless corpses falling to the ground, and the fox-headed demon.
In the last moment before his consciousness plunged into darkness, he vaguely heard the man in the golden-patterned robe speaking, "Just right..."
