Lu Changsheng could clearly sense that the aura of the Supreme Elder of the Void Behemoth Clan in front of him was much stronger than that of the First Elder.
They're simply not on the same level.
The woman curled the corners of her lips into a smile, bowed, and said, " Kong Zhuxin."
Lu Changsheng nodded, but did not introduce himself. Instead, he said, "Perhaps I am not familiar with the forces Elder Kong mentioned."
Kong Zhuxin had no doubts and smiled, saying, "That's fine then. In that case, please wait here."
Upon hearing this, the First Elder's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly said, "Elder Kong, isn't this inappropriate? This is a forbidden area for our clan!"
Kong Zhuxin smiled confidently, "The things left behind by our ancestors require Void Sacred Body to use. While this gentleman's strength is indeed formidable,..."
Before he could finish speaking...
Out of the corner of her Kong Zhuxin noticed that Lu Changsheng had somehow arrived beside the bed.
Lu Changsheng muttered, "Is this thing reliable or not...?" as he lightly touched the bed with his fingers, absorbing some of the purple aura emanating from it.
The Grand Elder pointed at Lu Changsheng and said, "Elder Kong... didn't you say that only those who possess the Void Sacred Body can absorb it?"
Kong Zhuxin: "..."
Did our ancestors lie?
Fortunately, Lu Changsheng only pulled out a wisp of hair before withdrawing his finger and saying calmly, "Don't worry, I was just testing for danger. As the master, I have no reason to steal my disciple's fortuitous opportunity."
Kong Zhuxin breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
In her judgment, if Lu Changsheng insisted on taking it, it would probably take most of the Void Behemoth's resources to kill it, and the losses would be unbearable.
"You seem to have a deep understanding of the Space Dao Law," Kong Zhuxin said.
"Me?" Lu Changsheng shook his head. "I haven't researched it."
Kong Zhuxin laughed, "You must be joking. Without the Void Sacred Body and a deep understanding of the Space Dao Law, how could you so easily absorb the lifelong insights left behind by our Void Behemoth Clan's ancestors?"
Lu Changsheng opened his mouth, then closed it again.
Never mind, I won't explain anymore.
This isn't the first or second time that people haven't believed the truth.
Lu Changsheng nodded helplessly, "Yes, yes, you're right."
at the same time.
In the Changsheng Realm.
Xiao Hei suddenly said, "Master, I need to go to the Nine Nether Underworld."
Lu Changsheng's true form was currently lying in a rocking chair, resting with his eyes closed. Upon hearing this, he immediately opened his eyes and said, "What kind of trouble are you going to cause now?"
Xiao Hei scratched his head and said, "I received the inheritance of the Lord of the Underworld before, and now the Nine Nether Underworld of the Wilderness Realm is sending me a message through the Nether Lord's inheritance, asking me to go there."
You think you can just go because someone tells you to?
"... Indeed, I have nothing to do, and secluded cultivation isn't my style."
"Got it." Lu Changsheng nodded. "You're just itching for a punch."
Xiao Hei chuckled, "It has to be Master, he really understands me."
Lu Changsheng stood up, turned his back, waved his hand, sighed, and said, "Alright, go ahead, just leave me here as an empty-nest old man."
Shi Sheng and the others pointed at themselves.
Is there only one person here?
So we are...
Um???
Nether River City.
From the direction of the Styx Sect, people within a thousand miles could see a massive black pillar of light Pierce the Firmament!
Evil Qi run rampant.
This Evil Qi was not unfamiliar to Ye Qiubai and the others.
" The Sacred Church..." Yang Shao frowned. "Have their influence already reached this place?"
Hong Ying frowned in thought. "It seems the Sacred Church is also very interested in what's sealed in the Nether River Abyss."
"If that's the case, things will get complicated..." The Grand Elder's face was grim. He was about to take out his communication jade pendant to inform the higher-ups of the Sacred Hall who were deep inside.
Little did anyone expect that Hong Ying's words would come true, as the jade pendant spoke first.
" The Sacred Church has attacked! The seal has been broken! Sacred Hall forces, come to our aid immediately!"
The seal has been broken.
The Grand Elder's face was grim. "We paid a huge price to seal that evil beast in the Nether River Abyss. Now that the seal has been broken, I'm afraid many more people will die."
"What exactly is sealed inside?" Luo Ke asked curiously.
The Grand Elder spoke gravely, enunciating each word clearly, "It's a Void Behemoth... and a member of the Void Behemoth royal family at that."
Apart from Ye Qiubai and the others, Yang Shao and Luo Ke's expressions both changed.
This was information that Yang Shaoluo Ke had never encountered before.
"But aren't Void Behemoth powerful beings who control space? Why would they unleash such a massive amount of Evil Qi?" Mu Fusheng asked, puzzled.
Not to mention that they had encountered the Void Behemoth in the Mortal Realm.
How could Void Behemoth be associated with Evil Qi?
The Grand Elder shook his head. "That is the corpse of a Void Behemoth, containing only a soul and a spirit, but it has been possessed by evil Evil Qi, becoming a puppet-like being... If it were alive, which force would dare to seal away the royal family of a Void Behemoth?"
Evil Qi entered his body, turning him into an evil puppet...
Just then, the Sacred Church intervened and broke the seal.
Is there any connection between these things...?
That's so hard to guess!
"I cannot go to provide support; I must remain at the Sacred Hall. Your cultivation levels are too low; you probably wouldn't be of much help even if you went to the place where the seal was broken." The Grand Elder remained calm and quickly assigned tasks.
"You are to go to the Styx Sect to investigate that black pillar of light, but under no circumstances should you act rashly! There will definitely be members of the Sacred Church there. If you discover anything amiss, immediately crush the jade pendant and request assistance, do you understand!"
Yang Shao nodded.
The group immediately headed towards the Styx Sect.
"Judging from this, the Styx Sect dared to attack the Sacred Hall before, so the Sacred Church must have been behind them." Yang Shao frowned.
Luo Ke: "Moreover, Nether River Ancestor was in seclusion before, nearing the end of his lifespan, but now he has suddenly reached the Middle Stage of the Formless Realm."
Mu Fusheng: "Then it all makes sense."
only.
Mu Fusheng still felt that something was off.
The timing of all this is just too perfect; one thing after another, with no time to catch your breath, as if it were all part of a pre-arranged grand spectacle.
Jiu Bailu took Mu Fusheng's hand, Mu Fusheng's eyebrows relaxed as he looked at Jiu Bailu.
Jiu Bailu smiled and said, "Sometimes you shouldn't think too much; thinking too much can trap your mind."
Mu Fusheng was helpless.
Their current situation is far from optimistic... How can they not think about it?
The Styx Sect was located within the territory of Nether River City, and the group arrived in the vicinity in just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
After entering the territory of the Styx Sect, everyone concealed their presence.
The black beam of light that shot into the sky was very close to them. If it looked like a cylinder from a distance before, it now looked like a black curtain of light!
Just then...
A flash of purple light appeared!
