Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill Chapter 1456 - 612: Deeply Hidden, Purely Relying on Acting Skills
Previously on Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill...
"The Justice Alliance" has always been targeting him, attempting to seize the rare treasures he obtained.
If it hadn’t been exposed, how could Zhou Dehai have been willing to hand over the jade box to the "Heavenly Star Pavilion" in exchange for protection?
That’s because he couldn’t keep it!
He had to pay a huge price to protect his business.
Unexpectedly, he still ended up disappointed.
His plan failed.
"What else can be done?"
Zhou Dehai smiled bitterly, "My life is worthless, but there are hundreds of people in ’Ten Thousand Treasures Tower’, and we can’t all fall here."
"Alas..."
Li Yunjing pretended to sigh, "How about this! I’ll go talk to the ’Heavenly Star Pavilion’?"
Zhou Dehai’s voice came through the communication talisman, with a hint of fatigue and helplessness: "Steward Li, going to the ’Heavenly Star Pavilion’ now might be..."
"Don’t worry, Shopkeeper Zhou."
Li Yunjing interrupted him, gently rubbing the storage ring with his fingertips, "I have my own way to get Xiao Yunting to take action."
"Then go ahead and try it!"
Zhou Dehai’s emotions still showed no fluctuations.
Without the three Dao Seed Pearls, he didn’t believe there was any way to enlist Xiao Yunting’s help!
In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, there is no such thing as friendship.
Even if the ’Ten Thousand Treasures Tower’ collapses, it would greatly benefit the ’Heavenly Star Pavilion’!
"Shopkeeper Wang, I’ve reached an agreement with Shopkeeper Zhou. At the auction in two days, I will appear and settle the relationship with the ’Heavenly Star Pavilion’."
Li Yunjing said, looking towards Shopkeeper Wang.
"Alas..."
Shopkeeper Wang shook his head. As Zhou Dehai’s subordinate, he naturally knew the difficulty of the ’Ten Thousand Treasures Tower’ situation.
They are nothing but fat sheep with money!
And now a pack of wolves is greedily eyeing them!
Once they find an opportunity, they will swarm in and split the ’Ten Thousand Treasures Tower’ apart.
What solution can a mere Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator like Li Wutian have?
Seeing the other’s despondency, Li Yunjing didn’t say much and directly left the branch of the ’Ten Thousand Treasures Tower’.
Li Yunjing chose not to stay in the city but took the opportunity to leave the city before the gates closed, speeding towards "Burial Island".
Under the moonlight, the long coastline was full of gaps.
Li Yunjing easily swam in the water, avoiding patrols and array monitoring.
Continuing forward, five thousand miles away, huge waves suddenly rose on the sea surface, vaguely revealing a pitch-black island emerging from the sea, its name written in ancient seal script, exuding a ghostly aura.
It is the legendary "Burial Island" that has devoured countless cultivators.
And in the sky above, the full moon shone brightly.
It was exactly the time mentioned in the note given by Yue Wuya!
Li Yunjing lurked in the dark sea water, his aura completely retracted.
In the distance to the east of the island, faint green phosphorous fires flickered between the reefs.
It was the rendezvous signal mentioned in Yue Wuya’s secret letter.
He approached silently like a swimming fish, and suddenly, undercurrents surged underwater.
Three over ten-feet "Iron-Spined Sharks" darted out of the shadows, their fangs glinting coldly.
Li Yunjing calmly formed a seal, and three strands of mana with a special frequency shot out from his fingertips.
The sharks instantly became docile and moved aside, revealing a concealed underwater crevice behind them.
"Fellow Daoist Li is indeed punctual."
A hoarse voice came from the crevice.
A hunched old man wearing a fish-scale cloak appeared, holding a lantern in which a few struggling wraiths were imprisoned, "This old man has been waiting here for a long time."
"How should I address you?"
Li Yunjing’s pupils slightly constricted.
Li Yunjing hadn’t expected that the disciples of the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’ on ’Burial Island’ would be bold enough to openly imprison wraiths. What were they trying to do?
Such actions were almost the work of the Demon Dao!
Crazy!
The people of the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’ are simply crazy.
"The patriarch said you would show me something interesting."
Li Yunjing said, poker-faced.
"Come with me, Daoist."
The old man didn’t give his name, turned around, and dove into the sea.
Li Yunjing followed behind, passing through the winding underwater tunnel, and suddenly his view opened up.
The interior of the island had been hollowed out into a massive underground palace, with hundreds of cultivators wearing shackles working by the lava pool, pouring scarlet "Profound Yin Sand" into it.
Faintly visible at the bottom of the pool, a gigantic creature swam, its every turn causing the chains to clatter loudly.
"This is..."
Li Yunjing’s heart trembled violently.
"The core of the Blood Sacrifice Grand Array."
The old man sinisterly pointed to the high platform, "The seven elders come to collect ’Profound Nether True Water’ every night at midnight."
He suddenly lowered his voice, "I could only bring you here, as for what else you want to see, that’s up to your own skills, I won’t interfere!"
Li Yunjing stared at the boiling blood pool, crimson light reflecting in his pupils.
"Interesting..."
He thought to himself, "It seems this ’Blood Sacrifice Grand Array’ truly holds a great secret!"
"I’m leaving! Be careful on your own!"
The old man reminded him and then disappeared along the way they came.
"Heh..."
Li Yunjing watched him flee, sneering coldly. The person Yue Wuya had subdued seemed to have a very small courage and was of little use!
But the fact that this person could bring him here silently already satisfied Li Yunjing.
While he was contemplating, the entire underground palace suddenly shook violently.
The chains in the blood pool snapped inch by inch, and a colossal creature broke through the water!
It was actually a giant python with seven human heads, each with a pitch-black eye in its brow.
"Seven Fiend Profound Yin Python?!"
Li Yunjing gasped.
This ancient ferocious beast was supposed to be extinct, yet the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’ actually fed it with living people’s essence blood!
