Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill Chapter 1457 - 612: Deeply Hidden, All Relying on Acting Skills

One of the heads of the giant serpent suddenly turned to Li Yunjing, with a strange spiritual light flashing in its vertical pupil.

"Not good! This beast seems to have discovered me!"

Just as Li Yunjing was about to leave, a voice suddenly came to his ear, making him stop in his tracks.

"Stranger... I can sense that you are not from the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’... Additionally, you seem quite powerful..."

This voice made Li Yunjing halt.

"I wish to... collaborate with you..."

The ’Seven Fiends Profound Yin Serpent’ spoke again.

"Oh? Why choose me for collaboration?"

Li Yunjing responded curiously.

Li Yunjing squinted and sneered, "Collaborate? What can a confined Demon King offer me?"

"I can give you... the greatest secret of the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’."

The giant serpent’s seven heads all let out a low laugh, shaking the blood pool into a turbulent swirl: "As for why I want to collaborate? No living being desires enslavement! I am no exception."

"I see!"

Li Yunjing’s heart was stirred, and he made a decision, "Collaboration is possible, but how do we cooperate? My cultivation is no match for that Supreme Elder!"

"All you have to do is be willing to help me!"

The rightmost head of the giant serpent spoke ominously, "’Celestial Net Dao Sect’s seven undying old men have each refined a restriction on one of my heads. They’ve imprisoned me for three hundred years just to wait for the night of the lunar eclipse..."

Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from above the underground palace.

Seven blood-red pillars of light descended from the sky!

"They are here!"

The giant serpent struggled madly, the chains clanking loudly, "If you help me escape, I will reveal to you the secret of the ’Mountain and River Map’!"

"Deal!"

Li Yunjing agreed, "But you must guarantee my safety! Without absolute certainty, I won’t act!"

"Boom!"

And at that moment, the altar suddenly descended with seven beams of blood light.

Li Yunjing knew that the seven Elders of the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’ were about to arrive!

Without hesitation, he retreated from the place through the waterway.

"Rumble!"

After Li Yunjing left, the blood pool surged with blood light reaching the sky, and the piercing cries of the ’Seven Fiends Profound Yin Serpent’ almost never ceased.

Under the reef around "Burial Island," listening to such a harrowing cry, Li Yunjing felt his scalp tingle.

"It seems the resolve of this ’Seven Fiends Profound Yin Serpent’ to collaborate is indeed genuine!"

Li Yunjing couldn’t believe that treated so harshly, this Tier Four Demon King could still be in line with the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect.’

With this conjecture, Li Yunjing took a deep breath.

He came to the "Celestial Net Sea Region" to cause destruction.

What could be more destructive than disrupting a blood sacrifice and releasing a Tier Four Demon King against ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’?

After solidifying his thoughts, Li Yunjing restrained all his aura, immersing himself completely, waiting for the opportunity to meet the ’Seven Fiends Profound Yin Serpent’ again to discuss specific cooperation details.

Half an hour later, when the seven blood lights completely dissipated, and the underground palace returned to dead silence, Li Yunjing’s figure reappeared ghostlike from the waterway.

"What did they take away?"

He gazed at the languid ’Seven Fiends Profound Yin Serpent’ in the blood pool, noticing that the vertical pupils of two of its heads had already dimmed.

"They took away two urns of ’Profound Nether True Water.’"

The remaining five heads of the ’Seven Fiends Profound Yin Serpent’ slowly lifted, a voice filled with bitter hatred said, "As well as the three-hundred-year cultivation essence of two of my Divine Eyes."

"Is that all?"

Li Yunjing frowned, sending a voice transmission to ask.

"Smart."

The ’Seven Fiends Profound Yin Serpent’ suddenly struggled fiercely, the chains groaning under strain, "On the night of the lunar eclipse, the seven old ghosts will come to take the essence of my remaining five heads. That’s when the grand array is at its weakest..."

It spat out a blood-red scale, "With this, you can avoid the blood fiendish influence, but you must first help me with something..."

Li Yunjing took the blood-red scale, the touch icy cold bone-chilling, vaguely sensing the massive demonic power contained within.

His eyes flickered, "What is it?"

"Find a traitor!"

The five heads of the ’Seven Fiends Profound Yin Serpent’ simultaneously let out roars, causing the blood pool to surge, "Three hundred years ago, he pretended to help me escape, but in truth, he stole a treasure I had refined!"

A vague human figure suddenly appeared on the scale.

It was the image of a young Zhou Dehai!

"It’s him..."

Li Yunjing’s heart shook.

This was completely beyond his expectations!

The cultivation revealed by Zhou Dehai was similar to his own!

Did he truly have such great capability?

Li Yunjing could hardly believe this was true!

"Where is he now?"

Li Yunjing intentionally asked.

"In ’Celestial Star City’!"

The leftmost head of the ’Seven Fiends Profound Yin Serpent’ suddenly spat out a stream of black gas, which condensed into a map in the air, "In his body is the aura of my Lifebound Magical Treasure. On the night of the lunar eclipse, he will surely come to feast on a portion!"

"What!"

Li Yunjing was utterly shocked.

Zhou Dehai, that old fellow, always seemed jovial and harmless, had been acting all along?

Had he been completely played by this old fellow?

Was his aim also here?

"What is Zhou Dehai’s cultivation?"

Li Yunjing continued to inquire.

"Three hundred years ago, his cultivation was already in the Nascent Soul Realm Third Heaven! Now, who knows if he has advanced further."

The ’Seven Fiends Profound Yin Serpent’ responded with venomous hatred.

The deep-seated chill indicated the ’Seven Fiends Profound Yin Serpent’s’ boundless hatred toward Zhou Dehai.

Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing’s pupils constricted sharply, his grip involuntarily tightening around the blood-red scale.

Nascent Soul Realm Third Heaven?

That always-smiling, seemingly harmless Zhou Dehai?

"Interesting..."

A cold smile crept onto his lips, "It seems I underestimated Shopkeeper Zhou."

"Besides my Lifebound Magical Treasure, he also got three treasures from me!"

The middle head of the ’Seven Fiends Profound Yin Serpent’ suddenly lowered its voice, "Three ’Dao Seed Pearls’! Do you know what ’Dao Seed Pearls’ mean? If you cooperate with me, those three ’Dao Seed Pearls’ can elevate your cultivation to the Nascent Soul Realm!"
