Chapter 1406 |
Upon hearing this news, Su Jingzhen was once again shaken.
Boundless Snow was actually a disciple under the Boundless True Demon.
However, in the next moment, he was able to make sense of it.
After all, Boundless Snow was the most outstanding disciple among the younger generation of the Boundless Demon Sect.
And she was also the First Holy Maiden.
With such an identity, it wasn’t particularly strange.
At this moment, Ling Hua had essentially pointed him in a direction.
Now disguised as Yan Xiao, his entry into the Boundless Demon Sect was almost guaranteed to be successful.
Moreover, for Su Jingzhen, entering the Boundless Demon Sect wasn’t just about making contact with Boundless Snow.
And then there was the Abyss that Ling Hua had mentioned.
It was possible that the mysterious World Spirit was hidden there.
That thing was the most important.
As long as he could capture the main body of that World Spirit, the other World Spirits it had mentioned might also fall into his hands.
Su Jingzhen’s main body glanced around the private room.
Only the ancient zither that Ling Hua had played earlier remained.
The black brick in his hand flickered with a dark light once more.
The zither was then stored into the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss and delivered to Ling Hua.
"Thank you!"
After expressing her gratitude, Ling Hua drifted off in a certain direction within the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.
Clearly, she didn’t plan to stay at the peak of Creation Peak.
Not long after, she chose a bamboo forest not too far from Creation Peak.
There, she built a bamboo hut and settled down.
Seeing this, Su Jingzhen chose not to disturb her.
Although Ling Hua’s beauty and temperament were extraordinary, the pressure he was under left him with no desire for romantic distractions.
Moreover, he was already within Boundless City, and he felt as though Feng Qingya and Luo Yuebai were close by.
If he truly had descendants, they might also be very near.
He was almost impatient.
His main body turned to look at the Blood Empress Demon King.
"This private room is where Ling Hua stayed for a long time.
If she were to disappear just like that, it might attract a lot of attention here at Red Sleeve Pavilion. So, I’ll leave first, and Sister Blood Empress, please erase this place."
Su Jingzhen spoke to her directly.
The Blood Empress Demon King smiled and nodded.
"That’s easy enough."
With that, Su Jingzhen didn’t linger any longer.
He left the second floor of Red Sleeve Pavilion.
He wandered around the first floor for a while, ensuring that many of his former acquaintances saw him.
Only then did he leisurely leave Red Sleeve Pavilion.
But moments after he stepped out of the main entrance, a violent explosion erupted from the second floor of Red Sleeve Pavilion.
Terrifying energy scattered in all directions, completely obliterating the private room where Ling Hua had been.
Not a trace was left.
However, none of the women in the other private rooms on the second floor were harmed.
A Demon King-level expert naturally had precise control over such energy.
At this moment, everyone came out to see what had happened.
Seeing Ling Hua’s private room completely gone, they all wore puzzled expressions.
Then, a plump middle-aged woman walked out. Seeing the state of Ling Hua’s private room, her expression turned serious.
But she quickly dispatched Red Sleeve Pavilion’s staff to seal off the area.
No news of the incident leaked out.
As the owner of Red Sleeve Pavilion, she naturally knew that Ling Hua’s identity was special.
Her departure today must have had a reason.
She didn’t dare to ask too many questions.
She simply acted as though the incident had never happened.
If Su Jingzhen had seen the owner’s actions, he might have felt that his earlier arrangements were somewhat unnecessary.
Ling Hua’s disappearance from Red Sleeve Pavilion didn’t cause any major repercussions.
At this moment, Su Jingzhen began heading toward the northern part of Boundless City, where the Boundless Demon Sect was located.
Before long, he arrived without any hindrance at the entrance of the Boundless Demon Sect.
Here, there were layers of defensive formations and restrictions.
However, there was no one guarding the entrance.
As long as one was a disciple of the Boundless Demon Sect, they could come and go without any effort.
But at this moment, Su Jingzhen felt a bit tense.
Entering the Boundless Demon Sect was the first step.
If he couldn’t even get past this step, then everything else would be pointless.
Su Jingzhen took out Yan Xiao’s identity token.
Holding it in his hand, he took a step forward and walked straight toward the entrance.
The token emitted a faint glow, syncing with the formations’ hum.
And just like that, he passed through the entrance of the Boundless Demon Sect.
Feeling the incredibly dense demonic energy within the Boundless Demon Sect, Su Jingzhen finally let out a sigh of relief.
The first step had been accomplished.
Now, as Ling Hua had suggested, he needed to find an opportunity to break Boundless Snow’s records, drawing her attention and getting her to approach him. That was the most important thing.
Of course, breaking Boundless Snow’s records was key, but the Abyss and clues about Feng Qingya and Luo Yuebai also beckoned—steps to tackle one by one.
"Entering the Boundless Demon Sect—this counts as the first step!"
The Boundless Demon Sect covered a vast area, abuzz with talk of an upcoming trial at its majestic peaks.
Following the memories he had obtained from Yan Xiao, Su Jingzhen headed straight to a peak deep within the Boundless Demon Sect.
This peak was called Tianyan Peak. It wasn’t particularly tall, but it was quite exquisite.
The demonic energy here was extremely dense, and it was exclusively Yan Xiao’s.
After all, Yan Xiao was a Demon General Realm expert, one of the pillars of the sect.
It was only natural that he would have his own peak.
"The Abyss was easily found in Yan Xiao’s memories."
The Abyss was one of the most important trial grounds in the Boundless Demon Sect.
Access to it was quite lenient—any core disciple could enter at any time.
Of course, the Starry Sky Demons’ sects didn’t place too much importance on the lives of their disciples.
Everything depended on one’s own strength, as the Abyss was filled with endless dangers.
When disciples found themselves in peril, the higher-ups of the sect wouldn’t lift a finger to save them.
After all, the Boundless Demon Sect was simply too large, and the number of core disciples was enormous.
Every year, and even every day, many core disciples of the Boundless Demon Sect perished in the Abyss.
The law of the jungle was also evident in such trial grounds.
"I’ve entered the Boundless Demon Sect without attracting any attention.
Perhaps I should take a look at the Abyss. Since Ling Hua obtained that World Spirit in the Abyss, its main body might also be hidden there."
Muttering to himself, Su Jingzhen didn’t waste any time.
He left Tianyan Peak and headed straight for the Abyss.
Just as he flew away from Tianyan Peak, someone suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Senior Brother Yan Xiao, are you also heading to the Abyss?
Today, Junior Sister Boundless Snow is headed to the Abyss for that trial. Many are going to watch the spectacle.
Moreover, Junior Sister Boundless Snow needs many assistants. She’s planning to challenge the lowest stage.
With Senior Brother Yan Xiao’s strength, you might actually have a chance to become one of her assistants."
