Chapter 399 (2/2)

”This place is...?” Xiang Shaoyun asked in confusion.

”I once stayed here for a period of time,” said Devouring Ghost. He took a deep breath and entered the estate.

Xiang Shaoyun, Du Xuanhao, and Jin Wo followed behind him. Soon, they found that some low-leveled cultivators were staying there. It was obvious this place now served as some sort of shelter for them.

”Who are you people? p.i.s.s off!” shouted one of the people. He had a scar on his face and was wielding a crimson saber. A vicious expression hung on his face. Along with that shout, some other cultivators in the building also raised their weapons. They were all ready for a fight.

”Leave. I do not wish to kill here,” said Devouring Ghost coldly.

An emperor aura roiled out, and their faces fell when they sensed it. They lost all their courage and immediately withdrew gloomily. After they left, Devouring Ghost headed toward a worn-out building at the middle of the estate.

The building was badly damaged and did not seem like anyone could live in it anymore. Even those low-leveled cultivators residing here had only stayed in the side buildings instead of this broken main building.

Devouring Ghost stopped before an opening in the wall and crawled inside while saying, ”Give me a moment.”

No wonder Devouring Ghost had insisted that we come to the Bloodsin City. Apart from helping me grow stronger, he also has a personal reason to be here, Xiang Shaoyun mused inwardly.

After a while, an incorporeal power rippled out of the building. Suddenly, numerous patterns akin to a spider web appeared on the ground. These patterns were all emanating an indescribable power. The entire estate started sinking into the ground, stunning Xiang Shaoyun, Du Xuanhao, and Jin Wo. After a while, the estate stopped moving, but they were now completely enveloped in darkness.

Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+

Suddenly, light started s.h.i.+ning from numerous directions and lit up their surroundings.

Once again, Devouring Ghost appeared before Xiang Shaoyun. He said, ”Young master, this is a restricted s.p.a.ce I had left behind in the past. I am the only one that can enter this place. Here we are completely isolated from the outside world. n.o.body will be able to bother us.”

”Restricted s.p.a.ce! That is something only those above the Sovereign Realm can create!” Du Xuanhao cried out in shock. For the first time, he realized just what kind of an existence Devouring Ghost used to be.

”Yes, this place is safe enough. But how are we going to move in and out?” asked Xiang Shaoyun calmly.

”Don't worry about that. I can teach all of you the method of leaving and entering,” Devouring Ghost replied. ”I am planning to stay here for some time and focus on restoring this body to its previous cultivation level. I might need half a year, or even an entire year. Therefore, we need to draw a plan and decide on what all of you will do next.”

”Since you already have a plan in mind, tell us about it,” said Xiang Shaoyun.
