Chapter 358: I'll go myself!
Just by looking at the quality of that sachet, the shadowy figure knew that the "master" this girl spoke of was not someone to be trifled with.
But he wasn't afraid.
What is his identity? Even though he is now dead, with only a trace of his soul remaining, he is here as a palace guardian. He once saw the immortal realm and even ascended to immortality!
Even though her master was no weaker than these immortal lords, the shadowy figure was no longer afraid.
the reason is simple!
He possesses the authority to control the entire Primordial Secret Palace. The Immortal Lords left behind a great deal of power here, which the Shadow can use at will. If anyone dares to launch a forceful attack… hehe, the Shadow wouldn't mind unleashing another killing spree. No matter how powerful her master is, when immortals reside in the Xuan Tian Realm, their strength is always suppressed to a certain extent by the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao of the Xuan Tian Realm is actually the Heavenly Dao of the "Five Realms." The Heavenly Lord governs many places, and the Xuan Tian Realm is actually the one the Heavenly Lord cares about the most.
If there were immortals who recklessly used their power in this "mortal realm," disrupting cause and effect and destiny, the heavens would be very angry.
Let's assume this is in the celestial realm.
Facing the master the girl spoke of, the dark figure felt he had no chance of winning.
But in the Xuan Tian Realm, and specifically within the Ancient Secret Palace.
The shadowy figure felt that even if the odds of winning weren't eight or nine out of ten, they should at least be six or seven.
Of course, the girl in front of him probably didn't know about this, otherwise she wouldn't be so arrogant. But it didn't matter. The shadowy figure felt that over the years, the little bit of fighting spirit in his heart had been worn away.
And why make trouble for a mere maid? Besides, she's destined to be connected with Emperor Taiming no matter what, and even if the final outcome isn't ideal, the shadowy figure can't kill her.
"I'm going in now, bye-bye."
Qin Yiyao waved her hand dismissively, then stepped into the passageway without looking back.
After she left.
The shadowy figure sighed after a long silence.
"Sigh, these young people nowadays..."
……
Outside the ancient secret palace, in a certain mountain forest.
Gu Heng wiped his sweat and looked around anxiously.
Oh no, Qin Yiyao is missing.
He had been walking in the direction the little girl had come from for over an hour. Strangely enough, even if the little girl was strong, she couldn't possibly have run the whole way. In terms of endurance and stamina, he felt that he couldn't possibly lose to her. Besides, the paths in the Ancient Crocodile Mountains were very difficult to walk on. If one slipped, falling flat on one's face would be the least of one's worries.
But he just couldn't catch up.
Not only did they fail to catch up, they couldn't even see a trace of Qin Yiyao.
This made Gu Heng extremely anxious. Although he was anxious, he did not forget to stay vigilant. The female knight Qiu had just said that there were indeed monsters in the mountains. Although Gu Heng had not seen any monsters along the way, he had shot and killed more than a dozen wild animals.
But since they say it exists, it must exist.
That Lady Qiu had no reason to deceive him; she wouldn't have eaten anything if she had lied to him, a mere mortal, so it wasn't a lie.
Therefore, Gu Heng needs to find Qin Yiyao as soon as possible.
Then quickly slip away.
If it were just Gu Heng alone, he wouldn't be worried. After all, he had the system, which at least gave him the ultimate life-saving method of "teleportation." But how could Qin Yiyao protect herself?
After resting for a while, Gu Heng continued forward. As he walked further down, he felt that he was about to reach the Ancient Secret Palace. But then again, perhaps Qin Yiyao had already gone in?
Once you enter that place, there shouldn't be any monsters threatening you, right?
Thinking this, Gu Heng continued walking forward.
Not far from him, the Stone Vein Demon King burst out of the earth, accompanied by several demon spirits. It shook its enormous serpent head and roared, "How come so many people are dead?!"
It's angry.
He himself gave the order to hunt down all humans in the mountains.
But the Stone Vein Demon Emperor discovered that, for some reason, the demon spirits he brought in this direction seemed to be dying one after another, and more than a dozen of them had died!
Although it didn't care about the lives of the demon spirits, the Stone Vein Demon King was still furious. How could it let these useless fools hunt down humans, and they did such a terrible job?
It beat those cultivators who were undergoing tribulation or were at the Mahayana stage to the point of injury or death. It was so weak that when they chased after the wounded or easily killed weaklings, they were all so incompetent.
And they were killed by the same person.
Don't you even understand the concept of a siege? Are you just going to send them all to their deaths?
"Reporting to the Demon Emperor, there is a very strong human who has already killed many of our brothers. He is just ahead!"
A wolf spirit came running from afar and spoke to the Stone Vein Demon King.
"I know, that's why I came! What level of cultivation does that human possess?"
"This... I don't know. It seems like they have no cultivation, but perhaps my subordinates are too weak to see through them."
The words had barely left his mouth when the Stone Vein Demon King's eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty red light. He then bit down and devoured the wolf demon spirit that had opened its mouth. "Since you're so weak, then you can replenish my strength!"
The Stone Vein Demon King chewed on the stone, while the demon spirits beside him trembled with fear and dared not utter a word.
"You, go after the others!"
"I'm going to meet the man who killed more than a dozen of my men myself!"
