Xiao Tian did not pursue the fleeing Black Flame Sect experts, but instead handed the task over to the Adamantine Staff Adamantine Staff, allowing it to freely engage in the chase and eliminate them one by one.
"Old man, let me see what secrets the Black Flame Sect is hiding." Xiao Tian's right eye, the Tenseigan Tensei Jōgan, unleashed its power, condensing a golden spiritual ball. By sending the spiritual ball into the black-robed old man's body, he controlled the old man's will and actions, stealing his thoughts.
After a short while, Xiao Tian was slightly disappointed. This old demon was just a handyman and knew nothing about the Black Flame Sect's leader, base, or anything else. However, he still managed to obtain some crucial clues.
The old man was originally dead, but he was resurrected, and the cause of his resurrection was a cup of divine water.
Xiao Tian carefully observed the old man through his Heavenly Dao Double Pupils and discovered a very small, ugly insect in the old man's brain region.
The system detected that it was Corpse Soul Worm. By using a magic seal within the worm, the worm's life soul was activated, granting the deceased the possibility of survival. However, even if they could be resurrected, they would only have a short lifespan of about one year and would not remember their previous life.
The memories that Xiao Tian acquired were merely the old man's experiences after his resurrection.
" Corpse-Controlling Demon, huh? Let's go meet this guy."
However, Xiao Tian felt that the name was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.
" Xiao Tian, why are you running so fast!" A cold voice boomed from afar, it was Tushan Yaya who had chased after Dongfang Qinlan.
Xiao Tian calmly sipped his Cola, casually burning the old man in black robes to ashes, and watched Tushan Yaya land.
"Let's go somewhere else, let's find an interesting guy."
"Just wait for them to arrive. You're charging ahead alone, aren't you afraid of putting yourself in danger? Aren't you afraid that everyone will be in danger when they come looking for you?" Tushan Yaya's eyes were full of disdain.
"Oh, Yaya, you're right. Let's wait then." Xiao Tian spread his hands, indicating his helplessness.
Meanwhile, in a valley shrouded in black mist somewhere in the Northern Mountain.
"Master, my Corpse Soul Worm have died." The Corpse-Controlling Demon's tone was extremely shocked as he stared at the handsome young man before him.
"Oh? Isn't it true that only my Emperor Flame can burn that little bug of yours?" The boy opened his starry eyes.
"It's not a small insect, it's Mutated Corpse Worm King that I've cultivated over many years using the myriad insects underground in this barren land of Northern Mountain. I only have twenty Corpse Soul Worm at my disposal, and the death of even one would be a huge loss. Master, I want to make a move." The Corpse-Controlling Demon was furious.
"Then go out for a walk. It's no simple feat to kill your insects. After all, even the so-called Demon Emperor's power within this Inside the Circle couldn't completely kill your insects."
"Yes, Master, you are wise. It seems the Northern Mountain Demon League has brought in some interesting helpers." Beneath the black hat, the handsome and wicked face of the Corpse-Controlling Demon curled into a smile.
" Aolai Kingdom, the forces my mother told me to be wary of are within this small circle. Third Young Master of Aolai Second Emperor Flame Body, you want to trap me, but unfortunately, I've already laid out my plans. It's time to start reaping the rewards in this area of Northern Mountain. With the Second Emperor Flame Body forged, I'll also help that woman, Black Fox Empress, complete her mission and obtain that treasure!" The young man stood up, muttering to himself, his eyes gleaming.
As the Corpse-Controlling Demon and the boy got up, they headed in the direction where the Mask Group had reunited. Led by Xiao Tian, Mask Group happened to be on the same route as them and were getting closer to each other.
