Chapter 460 - Ninth Nether Buddha (2/2)

…

A month later.

The old beggar felt that Zhou Xuanji had already learned the ability and decided to leave.

“This bead is for you. I cannot tell you what it is exactly right now. You must bring it along with you always. Don’t put it into your storage bags.”

The old beggar opened his hand, and a thumb-sized red bead appeared, which resembled a marble ball.

Zhou Xuanji took over the bead. But before he could ask, the old beggar disappeared into thin air.

He sized the bead up for a while and could not see what was so special about it, so he took out a special-made string and put the bead around his neck.

He did not continue practicing Evil Spirit Retribution.

He had already mastered it enough to use it. It was more important for him to boost his cultivation now.

Cultivation was core.

After returning to his residence, he saw that Xiao Chan and Bai Suwan were cultivating together. Fei Hai was not around, and the other servants were busy with their tasks.

He did not disturb anyone but went back to his room to pack some things. After that, he flew up into the air to extract the Heavenly Law’s Celestial Power.

Three days later, a piece of news came into the Divine Cliff City.

Mo Jiuqing had slaughtered the Eight Desolate Spirit Sect!

The Eight Desolate Spirit Sect was also an overlord-grade faction in the west of the Center God Province. It controlled over 23 mortal realms and had firm foundations.

But this time, before the immortal gods could descend in time, it was massacred. There was not even one survivor.

Mo Jiuqing only left behind a line of words written in blood on the stele at the Eight Desolate Spirit Sect’s gate:

Vengeance of a lifetime. Another Eliminated!

The world was shocked. Countless people felt fear.

Most cultivators from the Tang King Clan, the Dao Heaven Sect, and the Eight Desolate Spirit Sect had not participated in oppressing Mo Jiuqing, and yet they were slaughtered. If this continued, wouldn’t Mo Jiuqing massacre the entire Center God Province?

The least pressured was the Divine Cliff. Yang Yutian had already informed his disciples that the Divine Cliff had a helper, a younger apprentice-brother to Mo Jiuqing. As such, they would not be attacked. But of course, this must not be made known to other factions.

Zhou Xuanji was not updated on Mo Jiuqing’s news. He was still cultivating above the clouds.

This day.

He suddenly opened his eyes and took out the Spirit Communication Heart.

Wang Hou’s voice came from it, “Bad news! A True God has found the Northern Wilderness Region. He had already entered the boundary. If he were to report the location back to the Upper Realm, the Northern Wilderness Region will surely be exterminated!”

Having heard that, Zhou Xuanji frowned and immediately replied with a deep voice, “I will return now!”

He got up. After some thought, he slammed his hand down and activated the Nine Hell Flame Extinction.

He wanted to get the Divine Cliff’s help, but the only True God left here was Yang Yutian. If he were to leave, Zhou Xuanji could not bear any responsibility for the Divine Cliff’s loss.

He quickly entered the boundary between the Yin and Yang realms.

…

In the frozen land of the Northern Wilderness Region.

Devil Emperor Dugu stood on the snowy peak and looked down. Through the blizzard, he saw a silhouette that was beaming with eye-catching radiance. Even the snowstorm could not veil the light.

He was wearing heavy silver armor that looked rather imposing. He was dozens of meters tall, and his eyes were shining brightly. No pupil could be seen.

He was like an unmatched war god. Just by standing there, he gave off an invincible aura.

Devil Emperor Dugu said with gritted teeth, “Lu Jingfeng, why are you here!”

Dugu knew how horrifying this person was and posed himself to face a powerful enemy.

Lu Jingfeng turned to look far ahead and said peacefully, “I’m here to massacre the Northern Wilderness humans and to catch Darknorth Monarch Tao along the way.”
