Arrival at the Chaotic Demon Sea
Heavenly Mansion's victory over Yuan Sect propelled it into the ranks of the Super Sect, causing a stir in the Eastern Xuan Region and the Heavenly Profound Continent before its eventual decline.
However, to the surprise of many forces, after such a grand display, Heavenly Mansion did not make any further moves. Instead, it gradually calmed down and showed no signs of wanting to expand on a large scale.
Heavenly Mansion is now like a new player who just wants to hold onto the Blood Horn Region and occupy a new territory, which has made many forces that were originally worried breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, Heavenly Mansion was able to defeat Yuan Sect, so its strength should not be underestimated. If Heavenly Mansion makes any big moves, it will inevitably change the power structure of the Eastern Xuan Region. Even other Super Sect will worry about whether Heavenly Mansion will attack their sphere of influence.
Now that Heavenly Mansion has occupied the Blood Horn Region, which no one pays attention to, it has not made any major moves, which also indicates that Heavenly Mansion has no ambition to expand for the time being.
This news is undoubtedly extremely beneficial to all the major forces in the Eastern Xuan Region, except for the Yuan Sect.
Blood Horn Region, Mountain Range of Heaven, Heavenly Mansion Headquarters Hall.
Lin Langtian, who had been resting with his eyes closed, slowly opened them and looked at all the elders and high-ranking officials in the hall. He slowly asked, "Is everyone here?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Tong stood up and said, "Reporting to the Palace Lord, everyone has arrived..."
"Hmm." Lin Langtian nodded, then looked at the people whose faces were beaming with joy and said, "It seems that Heavenly Mansion has been developing quite well during this period."
Hearing this, Zhou Tong smiled and said, "As the Palace Lord said, it is indeed very true. Ever since the news of my Heavenly Mansion defeating the Yuan Sect spread, some busybodies have listed my Heavenly Mansion as the ninth Super Sect in the Eastern Xuan Region."
Therefore, during this period, disciples and powerful figures flocked to join my Heavenly Mansion. My Heavenly Mansion has more than doubled in size during this time, and is gradually developing the foundation of the Super Sect.
Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian smiled and nodded. Heavenly Mansion was his foundation, and he was the happiest person to see Heavenly Mansion grow stronger.
It seems that in addition to rescuing Mo Tie and others, the intangible influence and the meteoric rise in reputation brought great benefits to the Heavenly Mansion after defeating Yuan Sect.
Thinking of this, Lin Langtian suddenly shifted his gaze to the three figures following closely behind Dugu Qi. He raised an eyebrow slightly, as he could sense that these three were actually experts at the Death Profound Stage level.
Who are these three?
"The Liu Family Three Brothers greet the Palace Lord!" Without waiting for a greeting, the three men, whose expressions had remained indifferent, suddenly bowed respectfully to Lin Langtian was at the head of the table, and said in a respectful voice.
Although the Palace Lord looked very young, after the battle at the Yuan Sect, everyone knew the names of the Heavenly Mansion and Lin Langtian. Therefore, even though the three were experts at the Death Profound Stage, they still showed great respect.
"These three are brothers, all surnamed Liu. Although they have never joined any force before, these three Death Profound Stage experts are still a force to be reckoned with, and therefore have some reputation in the Eastern Xuan Region."
"I offended the Yuan Sect in my early years, so I've been hiding in the Blood Horn Region. I discovered them some time ago, so I recruited them," Dugu Qi explained with a smile.
Lin Langtian suddenly realized, then smiled and nodded, saying to the three of them, "Since you have joined Heavenly Mansion, you are naturally one family. Yuan Sect, you don't need to worry. Right now, their claws probably can't reach here. Even if they do, I, the Palace Lord Tianfu, will chop them off."
The three experts at the Death Profound Stage were already worth Lin Langtian's Lin Langtian to win over, so he was giving them sufficient guarantees.
Upon hearing Lin Langtian's words, a hint of joy appeared on the faces of the Liu Brothers. They had lived a rather miserable life over the years. The name of the Yuan Sect was too famous in the Eastern Xuan Region, so much so that many forces dared not take them in for fear of offending the overlord of the Eastern Xuan Region.
"Sect Master, I am the eldest of the three brothers, so there's no need to mention my old names again. If you need anything in the future, just call us Liu Da Liu Er, Liu San." The man who looked the oldest said respectfully to Lin Langtian.
Lin Langtian smiled at the amusing and simple address, nodded, and then turned to Zhou Tong beside him and said in a low voice, "Elder Zhou, I need to go to the Chaotic Demon Sea for a while. I'll leave Heavenly Mansion in your care with Elder Dugu."
"To the Chaotic Demon Sea..."
Upon hearing this, the elders and high-ranking Heavenly Mansion Elders present were all taken aback. After exchanging glances, they were surprised.
It's worth noting that Heavenly Mansion is currently experiencing rapid development, and Lin Langtian, as the Heavenly Mansion Lord, is going to the Chaotic Demon Sea, which is thousands of miles away. How could this not be surprising?
In response, Lin Langtian simply explained, "There is something I need to do in the Chaotic Demon Sea. During my absence, the operation of the manor will depend on everyone."
Hearing this, everyone could only nod helplessly. After all, as the Heavenly Mansion Lord, Lin Langtian had no choice but to obey whatever he wanted to do.
Fortunately, Heavenly Mansion has now returned to normal operation and is the newly emerging ninth Super Sect in the Eastern Xuan Region. Therefore, even if Lin Langtian leaves, it will not have a significant impact on the Heavenly Mansion.
At this moment, Zhou Tong pondered for a moment and then said, "Palace Lord, the Chaotic Demon Sea is full of powerful forces and experts. It is much more chaotic than the Eastern Xuan Region. Why don't we go to the Chaotic Demon Sea together?"
Since that earth-shattering battle at the Yuan Sect, Lin Langtian's status in Zhou Tong's heart has risen again.
Because he possessed the Space Ancestral Talisman, Zhou Tong was not entirely ignorant about the Evil Demon and the Demon Prison. In his premonition, there would inevitably be an earth-shattering battle between the Heavenly Profound Continent and the Evil Demon in the future.
During this great battle, Zhou Tong vaguely sensed that Lin Langtian, with his mysterious methods and extraordinary talent, would play an extremely important role in the battle.
Therefore, Lin Langtian absolutely cannot afford to lose, otherwise he will have one less chance of winning against the Evil Demon in the future.
This slight chance of victory is invaluable to Zhou Tong.
Unaware of how important he was to Zhou Tong, Lin Langtian pondered for a moment after hearing what the former said, then shook his head and said...
"No need. Although my Heavenly Mansion gained a certain advantage in the last great battle with the Yuan Sect, a centipede dies but does not fall down. The Yuan Sect must still be eyeing my Heavenly Mansion covetously in the dark. Therefore, neither Elder Zhou nor Elder Dugu should act rashly," Lin Langtian.
Although it's impressive to have a super bodyguard at the Samsara Stage by your side, Heavenly Mansion is Lin Langtian's foundation and absolutely cannot be lost. Only with Zhou Tong and Dugu Qi guarding it can Lin Langtian feel at ease.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Tong pondered for a moment before nodding.
After all, Zhou Tong knew those three Cunning Old Man from the Yuan Sect very well, and they might do something underhanded, so he couldn't be careless.
"Then why doesn't the Palace Lord take Liu Da and the others with him? After all, as the Heavenly Mansion Lord, it would be easier to get things done in the Chaotic Demon Sea with a few people under his command." At this moment, Dugu Qi pointed to the Liu Brothers and chuckled.
"Your subordinates are willing to accompany the Palace Lord to the Chaotic Demon Sea!" Liu Da and the other two also respectfully volunteered.
Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian pondered for a moment before nodding.
The three cultivators at the Lesser Death Profound Stage Lesser Success were indeed three skilled fighters. Moreover, this was a good opportunity to test the loyalty of Liu Da and the other two.
After explaining everything, Lin Langtian was completely relieved. With two Samsara Stage experts in charge of the Heavenly Mansion, there shouldn't be any major problems unless the Fourth King Hall intervenes again.
However, the Demon Prison's plan is clearly not yet complete, and in order to avoid provoking the sleeping Ancestral Talisman Masters, it will most likely not show itself again.
As for Lin Langtian's departure, it did not alarm anyone. The only information Heavenly Mansion released to the outside world was that Lin Langtian was in seclusion.
Apart from a few high-ranking officials in the Heavenly Mansion, no one knew that the young Palace Lord had already traveled to the Chaotic Demon Sea, thousands of miles away.
The Chaotic Demon Sea, an unknown sea area.
On the boundless sea, wisps of clouds drift lazily, and sunlight shines through the clouds, making the sea surface sparkle and appear exceptionally tranquil.
However, this tranquility did not last long. The space in the sky suddenly distorted, and as silver light appeared, four figures materialized out of thin air.
These four people were clearly Lin Langtian and Liu Da, who had traveled from the Eastern Xuan Region to the Chaotic Demon Sea.
Lin Langtian looked around and saw the boundless sea shimmering with light. Giant birds occasionally flew across the sky, their sharp cries adding a touch of life to the calm sea.
"Is this the Chaotic Demon Sea...?" Lin Langtian murmured upon seeing this.
Liu Da and the other two looked around at their surroundings, and then stared at Lin Langtian in shock.
They never imagined that just moments ago they were in the Eastern Xuan Region, and in an instant, they would follow Lin Langtian to the Chaotic Demon Sea, tens of thousands of miles away.
Thinking of this, Liu Da and the other two looked at Lin Langtian with even more respect and awe.
This young Palace Lord is indeed as unfathomable and cunning as the rumors suggest.
"Palace Lord, the Chaotic Demon Sea is a vast territory. What is our destination this time?" Liu Da asked Lin Langtian respectfully, slowly suppressing his shock.
"Destination, the Corrosive Fiend Sea Domain..." Lin Langtian did not hide anything, after all, the Ancient Map recorded that the inheritance of a certain Devouring Ancestral Symbol owner was in that sea.
At this point, Lin Langtian glanced around and said, "I don't know which part of the Chaotic Demon Sea we are in now."
Although he was able to travel from the Eastern Xuan Region to the Chaotic Demon Sea in a relatively short time thanks to the Space Ancestral Talisman, the Chaotic Demon Sea was so vast and boundless that he couldn't pinpoint its exact location.
"Let's go forward and take a look." Unable to find anything, Lin Langtian shook his head and then led Liu Da and the other two to fly forward at high speed.
The Chaotic Demon Sea is extremely vast, with each sea area possessing an astonishing size. After they had been flying for an unknown period of time, Liu Da suddenly spoke.
"Palace Lord, there seems to be a lot of fluctuations in energy in this area."
"Oh? Are they pirates?" Lin Langtian raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing this.
According to the intelligence he gathered in advance, pirates were the most common sight in the Chaotic Demon Sea.
"Perhaps, but they're in the southwest," Liu Da said, pointing southwest.
Lin Langtian nodded and looked into the distance. Then he saw that there were hundreds of figures on the sea to the southwest. These figures were extremely strong, and strangely, they were being carried by blood-red sharks.
Lin Langtian stared at this scene in astonishment, and as he got closer, he realized that the people on the blood sharks were all shirtless.
Moreover, faint fish scales appeared on their bodies, their eyes were a dark red color, and a faint shark-like pattern seemed to be visible on their chests.
"Are they the Blood Demon Shark Clan of the Sea Demon Clan?" Lin Langtian asked, his eyes narrowing slightly as he looked at the figures riding on blood sharks and cutting through the waves.
Lin Langtian also knew something about the forces in the Chaotic Demon Sea. The most powerful force in the Chaotic Demon Sea was not humans or demon beasts, but the Sea Demon Clan.
However, the Sea Demon Clan is also extremely large, with countless races among them. The Blood Demon Shark Clan is one of the most famous races, known for its ferocity and bloodthirstiness. It is said that many human sects were directly slaughtered in the enmity with the Blood Demon Shark Clan race.
"What are these Blood Demon Shark Clan members doing here?"
Lin Langtian hesitated for a moment, then gradually slowed down. At this moment, the Blood Demon Shark Clan members had obviously noticed him, and immediately their dark red gazes shot over.
"My Blood Demon Shark Clan is on a mission in this area. All bystanders, get out of here!"
As the waves crashed, an exceptionally strong blood shark burst from the water. On its back, a man with a sinister expression, wielding a blood-red trident, fixed his gaze on Lin Langtian and his companions, and coldly shouted.
"Life Profound Stage Perfection".
Lin Langtian glanced at the man holding the trident, his eyes narrowing slightly. Judging from the aura emanating from the latter, this man was a powerful expert at the Life Profound Stage Perfection.
Moreover, the Blood Demon Clan members behind him seemed to be quite strong as well, with about a dozen of them reaching the Life Profound Stage.
A decent lineup.
Lin Langtian's eyes flickered slightly. The appearance of the Blood Demon Shark Clan team of this size and strength in this place seemed to give him some clues.
Although he had some guesses, Lin Langtian did not act rashly, after all, he was only a newcomer to the Chaotic Demon Sea.
Stopping Liu Da, who was standing beside him with an angry expression, Lin Langtian, "Let's retreat!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Langtian left first. Liu Da and the others snorted coldly at the Demon Shark team and then followed Lin Langtian.
"Commander Wang, they're just a bunch of humans. Just kill them. Why waste your breath on them?" As Lin Langtian and his group walked away, a man with sharp features sneered.
"Complete the mission first, and don't cause any more trouble!" Upon hearing this, the man known as Commander Wang frowned and coldly shouted.
Although he couldn't see through the aura of Lin Langtian and the others, his intuition told him that these humans were not simple.
"Scatter, all of you! Search thoroughly! She was severely injured by the elder. We must capture her, or if she escapes, our Blood Demon Shark Clan will be in big trouble!"
"Yes!"
Upon hearing this, the figures, exuding a murderous aura, immediately responded in unison. Then, a shrill cry rang out, and a large number of people dispersed, forming a net to search the sea area.
