Chapter 2017: Chapter 969:
She pleaded with Chen Mobai for her life.
“After you go to the Nine Heavens Morality Sect, honestly disclose everything you know. Profound Heaven True Monarch is the pillar of the Righteous Path and will give you a fair result.”
Chen Mobai thought for a moment before speaking those words.
The logic of confessing for leniency should apply in the Tianhe Realm as well.
“Indeed, if you can assist us in killing Ming Zun, it will be immensely meritorious for the Eastern Continent Righteous Dao…”
Yuan Qingque nodded gently after hearing this. For him, the top priority now is to kill Ming Zun and nurture Ye Qing for Divinity Transformation.
Before these two matters, Su Ziluo’s life is insignificant. If she can contribute valuable intelligence, it might offset her mistakes.
This can be seen as giving this outstanding young man a bit of face.
Upon hearing this, Su Ziluo calmed down a bit from her fearful state.
“Many members of my Five Elements Sect are still in the ruins. Ming Zun might have dispatched other Demon Path cultivators. I’m very worried…”
After stating the situation, Chen Mobai immediately proposed bidding farewell.
Yuan Qingque nodded, Ye Qing came over again to solemnly thank Chen Mobai.
“Friend, this is my Message Talisman. If there’s any progress on the Communicating Holy Spirit Pill, I will notify you.”
Ye Qing’s injuries have stabilized but he still needs to return to the Nine Heavens Morality Sect for recuperation, so Yuan Qingque accompanied him to leave. Before departing, he personally handed an ancient Message Talisman to Chen Mobai.
Su Ziluo saw this scene, her eyes flickered, already convinced that Chen Mobai would be the future Divinity Transformation of Yi Yuan Dao Palace.
“Thank you, senior. During the righteous-demonic war, my Five Elements Sect will surely guard the maritime gateway of East Wu.”
Chen Mobai also respectfully accepted with both hands and expressed his resolve to cooperate with Yuan Qingque on the Eastern Continent Frontier.
“Taoist Child, I’ll trouble you to keep my storage bag. Here is the method to open it…”
At this moment, Su Ziluo suddenly spoke, but the latter part was transmitted through sound; Yuan Qingque, being Deity Transformation True Monarch, naturally did not pry, allowing her to whisper discreetly.
“Yes, after you go, undergo a good reformation.”
After listening, Chen Mobai gently nodded and advised once more.
After they finished speaking, Yuan Qingque waved his sleeves, transforming into Spiritual Light and carried Ye Qing and Su Ziluo toward the sky.
Chen Mobai watched them disappear into the distance, feeling relieved.
Just now, Su Ziluo told him via sound transmission not only the method to open the storage bag but also the sacramental refinement mantra of the Evil Spirit Disk.
Given its innate nature, Chen Mobai’s “The Union of Differences” cultivation was inadequate. Without her telling, he might indeed have no way.
At this moment, Chen Mobai suddenly hoped Su Ziluo could survive.
People should always be given a chance to return to the right path.
With these thoughts, he did not linger here and directly drove the Thousand Swords Dharma Body toward where his true body was.
Chen Mobai reclaimed the Second Nascent Soul and Thousand Swords Dharma Body, then immediately headed towards the Tai Yi Wu Yan Luo.
With his speed, he naturally quickly caught up with Qing Nu and the others.
Seeing him appear unharmed, everyone was delighted.
To avoid unnecessary delays, Chen Mobai drove Tai Yi Wu Yan Luo at maximum speed, swiftly passing through the ruins and entering the Eastern Yi Territory.
Along the way, everyone in the Five Elements Sect stayed tense until they reached Bright Mirror Mountain and returned to Northern Abyss City via the large-scale teleportation array, where they finally relaxed.
They knew that Chen Mobai had arranged a Fifth Rank Great Formation here, capable of holding even a Deity Transformation True Monarch for a while.
The unprecedented sense of security made Mo Douguang and Zhou Ye, these two Nascent Soul cultivators, truly perceive the Five Elements Sect’s current strength.
But soon, Zhou Ye’s expression turned bitter.
For a long time, the Five Elements Sect had arranged for him to oversee things at Dongyi Mingjing Mountain.
Previously, due to numerous medicine fields and other major factions of the East Barbarians depending on the Five Elements Sect, governing Bright Mirror Immortal City was highly lucrative.
But now, that place might very likely turn into a war zone.
Nevertheless, Zhou Ye had reached his current status entirely due to sect support; now, it needed him, and he dared not refuse.
“Brother Zhou, take some time to rest. It so happens that I’ll help refine a Defensive Magic Weapon for you.”
Having just survived the attack from the Demon Path, Chen Mobai didn’t force Zhou Ye to assume his post immediately, giving him a buffer period.
“Thank you, Sect Leader Brother!”
Zhou Ye nodded, taking Green Pearl toward the teleportation array. Though he had to go to Eastern Yi, he didn’t want Green Pearl to follow him. Luckily, he acquired a Gold Core Spiritual Material at the Beidou Conference this time, so he planned to send Green Pearl back to Primordial Immortal City to settle down.
However, Green Pearl wished to follow Zhou Ye, to which he shook his head.
“You are the only one I care about now. When you are within the sect, I have a strong resolve to guard the gateway in Eastern Yi, because that makes me feel like I’m protecting you.”
Upon hearing Zhou Ye’s words, Green Pearl was deeply moved.
Although they are nominally master and servant and have registered as master and disciple within the Five Elements Sect, over the years, they’ve long become Daoist couples.
After Zhou Ye successfully formed his Nascent Soul, Green Pearl felt inferior, thinking she wasn’t worthy, but the former remained loyal.
…
At the site where Chen Mobai killed the Light Saint Envoy and Ming Zun’s ghost fetus incarnation, a bamboo raft flew over from afar, landing mid-air.
On the bamboo raft were Ku Zhu and three others.
After leaving the Beidou Conference, they went to another path recorded in Kong Sang Valley; Ku Zhu had mastered Condensing Sword into Thread, intending to slay some Rank-4 monsters for sect income.
However, that route hadn’t been taken in over two thousand years, and the stationed beasts differed from Kong Sang Valley’s records.
After slaying a Rank-4 monster, Ku Zhu encountered a nest of Divine Chi Leopards, which contained three Rank-4 monsters, one of which was Rank-4 Peak.
After a tough fight, Ku Zhu barely escaped.
Having no other choice, they had to retreat and take this safer route.
Then they reached this place.
Observing below, with everything turned to ruins, life extinguished and barren, both Ku Zhu and Ming Wen True Person as disciples had expressions of shock.
Such traces and scale could only have been caused by top-level Nascent Soul cultivators at the least.
“Huh!”
At this moment, Ku Zhu seemed to have noticed something and uttered in surprise.
He transformed into a Sword Light, descending from the bamboo raft before Ming Zun’s ghost fetus’s burnt ashes. He closed his eyes, reached out, and used his Tianyuan Dao Fruit to sense.
After a long time, he opened his eyes, confirming with a nod.
No mistake, it’s the aura of Huangquan Dao Fruit.
Moreover, it appears someone possessing Dao Fruit was slain and reduced to ashes.
Who could have done this!
Such strength must be at least Nascent Soul Peak, or perhaps… a God-Transcending cultivator?
Ku Zhu frowned tightly!
