Chapter 738: He Feifan Breaks Through to Highgod Realm
Huang Xiaolong wasn’t concerned whether the demonic beast clans found the Hundred Spirits Beast King’s sealed body parts before him.
Even he wouldn't have been able to find the gray space that sealed the Hundred Spirits Beast King’s arms without the Blood Sacrifice Law. The demonic beast clans would be deceiving themselves if they thought they could find the sealed location in a short few years.
He finished going through the Vermilion Bird Institute library’s ten aboveground floors in six years, thus he believed he could finish the ten underground floors in the same time frame.
In a short few days, Huang Xiaolong was already back to the Vermilion Bird Institute.
Back in Vermilion Bird Institute, Huang Xiaolong pondered if he should stop by the Death Prison Peak to see Wude. In the end, he decided to go.
In short, he had disappeared for several years, and Wude must be given an explanation on this matter.
When Wude saw Huang Xiaolong, he was surprised and happy at the same time.
More than six years had passed since that day Huang Xiaolong left to join the Demon Slaying Alliance for the second time in order to complete his Elder promotion task, but he had been missing since then. Not a word or news in six years caused Wude to assume that his youngest disciple Cheng Huai’an might have fallen under the demonic beast clan’s ambush.
Wude was genuinely dejected for a period of time.
When Wude asked Huang Xiaolong what happened to him these six years, Huang Xiaolong’s explanation was thus: six years ago, just as he arrived in the Golden Mountain World, he was ambushed by a group of demonic beast clan masters. Fleeing for his life, he ran into a valley in a nameless world surface, but who knew that he’d be trapped inside the valley’s formations for six years.”
“It’s good that you’re back.” Hearing Huang Xiaolong’s explanation, his usually stern face relaxed into a smile, and did not doubt whether Huang Xiaolong was telling the truth.
One hour later, Huang Xiaolong emerged from the Death Prison Peak and headed in the direction of the Virile Fire mountain range.
The Elder promotion procedures took place here in the Virile Fire’s main peak, called the Effulgence Peak.
In fact, the Effulgence Peak wasn’t far from Huang Xiaolong’s Lightning Fire Peak.
A short while later, Huang Xiaolong descended on the mountain peak.
When Huang Xiaolong stepped into the Effulgence Peak’s main hall, there were groups of elite disciples handing in their completed tasks here and there. Noticing Huang Xiaolong’s presence, many of them were surprised, and quite a few gasps of surprise could be heard.
After all, one of the hottest gossips in the last few years was Cheng Huai’an’s death.
A dead man was now standing in front of them, it was rightly so to be shocked.
“Cheng Huai’an actually didn’t die!”
“So what if he’s still alive? Liang Guang was the Piercing Sky Beast King’s son that died because of him, the demonic beast clans will definitely kill him, unless he decides not to take one step out of the Vermilion Bird Institute his whole life. Otherwise, only death awaits him!”
Huang Xiaolong’s expression remained the same despite all the deliberate crude remarks said about him.
Piercing Sky Beast King? He really wasn’t perturbed at all. Based on his current strength, he need not fear most First Order Highgod Realm masters. Even if that Piercing Sky Beast King came personally, he’d have a difficult time wanting to kill Huang Xiaolong.
Then again, when he finished gathering all the information he needed to determine the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire’s location, the identity of ‘Cheng Huai’an’ would reach the end of its usefulness.
From then on, Cheng Huai’an would forever disappear from this universe.
‘At that time, the Vermilion Bird Institute would conclude that Cheng Huai’an was really killed by the demonic beast clans.’ Huang Xiaolong mused.
This conclusion was for the best.
Arriving at the Effulgence Peak’s inner hall, where the Elder promotion was verified, Huang Xiaolong took out the corpses of ten Seventh Order God Realm demonic beast clan members as proof of completing the Elder promotion task. After receiving his Elder identity token and brocade robe, he left the Effulgence Peak.
When Huang Xiaolong was killing those demonic beast clan masters, he recorded the process with an illusionary stone. Thus that Elder overseeing the Elder promotion couldn't make things difficult for Huang Xiaolong.
After he finished with his Elder promotion, Huang Xiaolong returned to the Lightning Fire Peak. Despite his six years of absence, the Lightning Fire Peak was unchanged.
Huang Xiaolong rested for the remaining of the day. Early next morning, he put on the Elder robe and hung the Elder identity token at his waist before heading out to the Vermilion Bird Institute library.
Upon arriving at the library, he went straight to the first underground floor. With the Elder identity token on display hanging down from his waist, Huang Xiaolong entered without any hindrance.
