Chapter 533 - Danzhou In The Spiritual Realm (2/2)
Zhiming the Venerable One did not show a weak impression at all. He responded coldly, “I made it quite clear. Did you not understand what I said?”
“Uhm, you don’t have to do this. Isn’t it just a Spirit Grade cultivator? He’s not worth us getting angry over, but…” Another person spoke. He smiled faintly as he asked, “I think Zhiming the Venerable One has a point. If we openly break our promise, how can we gain the trust of others in the future?”
The person that spoke had a friendly face. He was Yuqi the Venerable One from the Beast King Sect.
Everyone fell silent after he supported Zhiming the Venerable Out. They seemed to be finally considering the problem seriously.
In actual fact, so-called promises had different importances to powerhouses of their level.
If both sides involved were evenly matched, the promise would be unbreakable; if there was a huge disparity between both parties, the situation would be completely different.
Hualing the Venerable One initially thought that apart from the Venerable One from Mount Wuzhi, the ones from the other sects would agree with him. Even if the Beast King Sect’s inheritance in the lower realm was good friends with the young fellow, their Venerable One would not openly oppose the idea.
Who knew, before the Beast King Sect even expressed their opinion, Zhiming the Venerable One stood out and openly objected to the idea. The change truly caught Hualing the Venerable One off guard.
The other people fell silent and pondered what was at stake, and they also secretly guessed why Zhiming the Venerable One acted out of character.
Zhiming the Venerable One had always been a stubborn person and was not on good terms with Mount Wuzhi, so the others figured that there must be a special reason he turned his coat this time.
Lingfeng the Venerable One suddenly laughed after a long time. “Frankly speaking, Ou Yangming’s cultivation base isn’t high, but he has quite a high level of attainment in the path of s.p.a.ce; he can refine interspatial bags.”
“What?”
Everyone else was dumbfounded, and they began to look fervent.
The imperial family was the only one that knew Ou Yangming could refine interspatial bags; the Ni family was also clueless.
After hearing about the news, the Venerable Ones that disapproved of the condition earlier began to change their minds.
“I see. Okay, I agree with your condition, fellow Lingfeng.” Hualing the Venerable One laughed out loud. He turned to say to Zhiming the Venerable One, “You received the news quite fast, fellow Zhiming.”
Zhiming the Venerable One curled his lips as though he was smiling, but he thought, ‘Given that he’s with a powerhouse from the Phoenixes, it’ll be impossible even if he didn’t want to grasp interspatial power…’
Lingfeng the Venerable One chuckled. “Since we’ve decided, let’s start preparing. Hehe, with the lower realm’s support, our strength will definitely improve.” Following that, he glanced half-intentionally at Zhiming the Venerable One and wondered, ‘How was the news leaked? Is there a traitor in our sect…’

Inside a ma.s.sive cave, a black eight-legged lizard the length of several hundred meters crouched quietly. It looked like a giant statue as it had not moved an inch for a few hours.
All of a sudden, black smoke arose slowly in front of it.
The black smoke appeared quite strangely as if it appeared out of thin air. It spiraled and rose to the height of the eight-legged lizard’s head.
Eventually, the black smoke agglomerated and turned into the form of a human.
“Ghost-clawed Venerable One, it has been a long time.”
The humongous eight-legged lizard slowly opened its eyes. It was not surprised by the black figure, which showed up without warning.
“Hmph, Blood Devil, how dare you show up in front of me?” The eight-legged lizard uttered coldly. Its voice was filled with threat.
The black figure laughed and responded, “Honorable Ghost-clawed Venerable One, we provided you with intelligence and the Inescapable Trap, so why aren’t you pleased?”
“Blood Devils like you only please that being.” The eight-legged lizard moved a little, and the aura around it seemed to have been activated. “What intelligence do you have for me this time? I hope you won’t disappoint me.”
“Ghost-clawed Venerable One, we won’t let you down for sure.” The black figure bowed and continued, “We received news that the Humans from Danzhou are going to pay an enormous price to connect the lower realm. At the same time, they’ll also send that person into the Spiritual Realm.”
“What? That person.” Ghost-clawed Venerable One’s eyes gleamed. Deep inside its bright eyes, a greedy look could be seen.
“Yes, that person.” The black figure smirked. “We have a way to…” He eventually spoke softer, but Ghost-clawed Venerable One’s eyes shone brighter.
