The Shameless Cat perched on Yang Zhen's shoulder and climbed up the chain, with Yang Zhen cursing incessantly along the way.
"Damn it, what kind of cursed restriction is this? It prevents me from using spiritual power. Did the Three Flowers Holy Maiden have to crawl to seal this guy in there?"
The Shameless Cat cackled, looking at Yang Zhen with a mocking expression, and said, "Kid, you volunteered to come up here yourself, so who can you blame? Besides, how did you know there were good things up there?"
Yang Zhen curled his lip and turned to Yang Zhen, saying, "This Sage of Saunter just heard the guy upstairs talking to me, believe it or not?"
"I believe you!" The Shameless Cat nodded seriously. "Believe you my foot! Don't even mention that so many people didn't hear it, even if you heard it yourself, you can't whisper in front of me, no matter how secret the method of transmitting sound. Although I can't hear what was said, I can still sense whether it was said or not."
Yang Zhen was taken aback and said in surprise, "Damn, your senses are so sharp?"
The Shameless Cat said with a grin, "So, are you envious? Do you want to learn?"
Yang Zhen shook his head seriously and said to the Shameless Cat, "Where did you learn these skills from? You got scammed, do you even know that? And you're still so smug? What are you so smug about?!"
"Bullshit! You're the one who got fooled! Your whole family got fooled!" The Shameless Cat roared in fury, glaring at Yang Zhen and saying, "This is an High Antiquity method for tempering the five senses, passed down for countless millennia. It's said to be the most acute method in the world. How dare you say I was fooled? I don't believe you a damn thing!"
Yang Zhen chuckled and looked at the Shameless Cat without saying a word.
The Shameless Cat was taken aback, then widened its eyes and said, "Boy, you don't need to look at me with such disgusting eyes. Even if I wanted to teach you this method, you wouldn't be able to learn it, because it's a method only suitable for spirit beasts!"
Yang Zhen stumbled and almost fell off the chain, startling the Shameless Cat, which let out a strange screech and grabbed Yang Zhen's collar tightly.
Is there a cultivation method in this world that is only suitable for spirit beasts?
In other words, that scoundrel Shameless Cat isn't just a ferocious beast or Demon Beast; it might actually be a spirit beast, or even the kind of sacred beast it claims to be.
Surprised, Yang Zhen curled his lip and said, "How do you know this Sage of Saunter can't cultivate if you haven't even tried?"
The Shameless Cat looked at Yang Zhen suspiciously and whispered some magic in Yang Zhen's ear. After a moment, the two looked at each other in bewilderment.
The Shameless Cat stared blankly at Yang Zhen Yang Zhen, then, sensing the aura emanating from him, its eyes widened in surprise. "You learned it?"
"Something this simple is obviously easy to learn. Do you think I'm as Sage of Saunter as you?"
"Impossible!" The Shameless Cat's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, and it yelled, "You're not human!"
Yang Zhen almost fell this time. She slapped the Shameless Cat on the head and roared, "Damn it, you're not human! No, you were never human to begin with!"
The Shameless Cat didn't even flinch, staring blankly at Yang Zhen, shaking its head and muttering to itself, "You're not human, you're really not human."
Yang Zhen was taken aback and asked in surprise, "Digging up grass? Have you gone mad?"
"Let alone humans, even Demon Race cannot cultivate this kind of technique. What... exactly are you?"
Yang Zhen was also dumbfounded, staring at the Shameless Cat, and said, "As you can see, it's a genuine human being. A fake will be penalized tenfold!"
The Shameless Cat's eyes flickered with surprise and uncertainty, its expression as strange as if it were seeing Yang Zhen for the first time. Then, it suddenly realized what was happening and asked curiously, "You just said that the guy upstairs talked to you. What did he say?"
Yang Zhen was taken aback, hesitated for a moment, and then said in an extremely low and hoarse voice, "You've come!"
"You're here?" The Shameless Cat was taken aback, then jumped up with a loud howl, yelling, "That guy up there actually knows you?"
"Impossible!" Yang Zhen replied with absolute certainty.
Putting aside the fact that Yang Zhen is just an ordinary single guy from the Blue Planet, the guy who came before was just an ordinary, even somewhat dull, fellow.
Could someone like that really know a powerful demon worthy of the Three Flowers Holy Maiden' intervention?
How the hell is that possible?!
But if they don't know each other, why would they say something like "You've come"?
This statement was the main reason why Yang Zhen decided to come up and see for himself.
Even the Shameless Cat thought it impossible for Yang Zhen to know that guy up there. Hearing this, it stared in disbelief and said, "That's strange. Could it be that the guy up there mistook someone for someone else? That shouldn't be the case!"
Yang Zhen curled his lip and said, "It's not impossible. After being suppressed for 20,000 years, or even longer, they might have lost their minds."
As they were talking, a sudden gust of wind arose in front of them, startling them so much that they quickly looked up.
A colossal spatial platform, bound by countless iron chains, spans across mid-air.
This platform seems to be made of clay, but it doesn't have the feel of earth. Instead, it has a hazy, chaotic feeling, making people feel as if they are in a chaotic mid-air.
Yang Zhen and the Shameless Cat crawled through the iron chains and climbed for an unknown amount of time before finally reaching the upper level.
A fierce wind howled, and waves of destructive and evil aura swept over us, blotting out the sky and leaving us with no end in sight, a sense of despair.
This is the most terrifying place Yang Zhen has ever been to so far.
A sinister, evil aura, like sharp blades, nearly cut Yang Zhen's Yang Zhen, leaving him speechless with shock.
Damn it, he's at the Seventh Dragon Elephant the Dragon Elephant Prison-Suppressing Physique! His skin, at this level, almost couldn't withstand this... wind?
The howling wind was like the roar of countless evil spirits from the deepest Purgatory, their wailing causing one's soul to scatter.
With a deafening roar, the chains rattled, and Yang Zhen heard that deep, hoarse voice again. "You've come, you... you really came. Good thing, it's not... too late!"
"Who are you?" Yang Zhen's expression changed, this time it was a real change, because he had definitely heard the voice, and he was finally certain that the person was speaking to him, and it was no one else.
The Shameless Cat had obviously heard the voice too; its fur stood on end, and it stared into the endless void, saying, "You... you're playing tricks! Come out here!"
"Come out here!" Yang Zhen sat down calmly and said, "Come out, I see you!"
Especially in times like these, it's crucial to remain calm!
Yang Zhen wore a calm and collected expression, but inside he was already panicking!
Anyone would be terrified if an evil person who has been suppressed for at least 10,000, or even 20,000 or 30,000 years said "You're here" in an extremely familiar tone.
Ignoring Yang Zhen and the Shameless Cat's questions, the voice continued to mutter, "You've come! You've finally come, but... why have you become so insignificant? The item was given to you... your mission is over, you're over too, heaven... is over... and earth... is over..."
The sound was intermittent and ethereal, as if it came from the horizon and then drifted away.
Yang Zhen plopped down on the ground, muttering to himself, "Damn it, this time we've really messed up. What the hell is going on?"
