Chapter 2554: Suspicions

l, the Zhan Yue Alliance had reorganized its deployment, and facing the combined efforts of numerous Jindan cultivators, Lu Xia Tian could no longer sweep across the battlefield. However, the Zhan Yue...In fact, Lu Xia Tian spent more time than he expected. Ban Qian Zhi traveled from the Nether Demon Grave to the chaotic demon realm, encountering many dangers along the way. If it wasn't for Ban Qian Zhi refining the Blue Yu Yao bottle for some years, his strength steadily improved. Relying on his original strength, he would have truly been unable to arrive safely.

However, before they even reached the Chaotic Demon Domain, Ban Qianzhi already discovered that someone was inquiring about Lu Xia Tian's whereabouts.

After some twists and turns, Ban Qianzhi finally handed Lu Xia Tian over to his Refracting Pearl.

As for what happened next, it was none of Ban Qianzhi's concern. According to Lu Xiaottian's account, after the Shadow-Leaving Pearl made its move with utmost secrecy, Ban Qianzhi no longer interfered, seemingly having no further connection with the entity behind the Shadow-Leaving Pearl.

The appearance of this relic, the retaining image pearl, also caused a bloodbath among low-level cultivators.

Ye Qianxin offered a substantial reward to obtain information about Lu Xiaoteng. However, over the years, there have been many false reports, and genuinely useful information has been scarce. Even occasionally, there were leads regarding Lu Xiaoteng's whereabouts, but after investigation, they always seemed to end abruptly. This had wasted a considerable amount of Ye Qianxin's time.

Even Ye Qianxin's bounty alone was enough to incite a battle between those at the Fusion Realm. On an extremely remote island in Dongzhou, dark clouds gathered ominously. A dozen warships weaved through the storm clouds, divided into two opposing forces. The billowing killing intent almost tore through the dark sky.

After a chase, the two sides finally clashed. A large number of bodies fell from the sky, either landing in the demon sea or being snatched by bloodthirsty demon birds mid-air, who directly carried them into their mouths during their descent.

Also, some demon fish leaped from the churning waves, opening their mouths wide to swallow the corpses whole. Then they flicked their tails and disappeared back into the waves.

The battle lasted for several days, finally ending with one side completely decimated. As if from nowhere, a gray shadow flew through the air, its sword cleaving through the leading flying vessel in one stroke. The cultivators aboard that vessel did not withstand the blade's might for long before being sliced to pieces by the crisscrossing energy.

After slaughtering a large number of low-ranked cultivators, the shadowy figure flipped out a keepsake orb from the Sumeru Ring of one of them. Then, a smile appeared on its face, and its body soared into the air, swiftly vanishing amidst the panicked flight of the other cultivators.

"The Netherworld Corpse Grounds" After several months, the Shadow Bead fell into the hands of a middle-aged man with slightly white sideburns, who exuded an air of imposing authority without anger.

“This kid sure knows how to pick a place. As a mere human, he’s been stuck in that dangerous place for so many years, no wonder we haven't heard from him.”

Ye Qianxun was playing with the keepsake orb in her hand, looking at the fragment of Xia Tian and Ming'e's sparring match inside with a playful smile.

“Predecessor, the Netherworld Corpse Grounds are extremely dangerous, with fierce demonic energy and ominous ghostly Qi obscuring the sky and sun. Why would Lu Xiaoteng go to such a place This Shadowing Pearl is filled with crisscrossing thunderous power, which may not be able to counteract the dangers of the Netherworld Corpse Grounds. Could there be another mystery at play here Perhaps Lu Xiaoteng has another destination in mind.” The grey-robed man respectfully said to Ye Qianxun.

"Among those who fought against Lu Xiaitian, do you recognize the Buddhist monk" Facing the gray-clothed man's confusion, Ye Qianxun didn't elaborate. Instead, she turned and smiled, asking.

“This person, I've already checked. He is Ming'e Zen Master of the Buddhist Sect. Back then, in the battle at Lanjing Lake, he was seriously injured by Lu Xia Tian. Later, after being treated by high-ranking members of the Buddhist Sect, he recovered as good as new and his strength increased significantly. Within a few hundred years, he was awarded the title of Zen Master. It is said that he is only one step away from the late stage of the Lianhe Body, and his mastery of thunder magic is formidable and unpredictable. His temper is violent and he is addicted to war.” The man in gray clothes outlined Ming'e's background in a few sentences, “After the battle at Lanjing Lake, if Lu Xia Tian hadn’t retreated into the chaotic demon domain, he would have likely fallen victim to the Buddhist Sect’s methods.”

“Judging from the aura emanating from the Relic Orb, Ming'e is already at the late stage of integration, a powerful figure at the level of a high master in the Buddhist sect, with purple lightning swirling around him. The battle with Ming'e is most likely related to a rumor about a path in the Underworld Demon Burial Ground. It's normal that you don't know the reason behind it.” Ye Qianxun shook her head and said, “Well, you can leave now.”

The grey-clad man scratched his head, confused by Ye Qianxin's words. However, since Ye Qianxin told him to leave, he dared not speak further.

Lu Xia Tian's grievances with the Buddhist sect at Lanjing Lake were well-known to everyone, but even ordinary Nascent Soul stage cultivators might not know that Shi Qing Lei Buddha had fallen in Shen Hun Land.

As a Great Ascension Stage old monster, Ye Qianxin naturally knew some secrets that were far beyond the comprehension of Nascent Soul cultivators.

"Shi Qinglei Buddha, Ming'e na Xiao Tuoluo happens to be a cultivator of the thunder system. It seems that Ming'e has received many benefits in Shi Qinglei Buddha's inheritance site. Since Shi Qinglei Buddha left his inheritance there, it makes sense that Lu Xiaottian could stay in the Shenhun land to cultivate. This kid is really good at hiding."

Ye Qianxin's eyes flickered, "It's this keepsake orb, it's only a fragment, and it came in a strange way. Its origin is unknown. If it were the work of someone else, then we could only say that this boy was unlucky. But what if it were his own doing"

With Ye Qianxin's cunning, there are bound to be many speculations in her heart. However, the fact that Binghu Luanfeng used the Nine Que Tianyin Xuanghui Great Array to trap and kill Shi Qinglei Buddha at the Shenhun Realm back then is also a secret. Outsiders only know that Shi Qinglei Buddha fought fiercely with Tongtian Demon Lord at the Shenhun Realm, killing Shi Qinglei Buddha after all, but he was also struck by misfortune. As for the specific details of what happened, who would know clearly

It is Ye Qianxin, and it is also difficult to know the details. Although there are rumors about the Nine Que Heavenly Yin Xuan Ghost Formation, they are not detailed either. In recent years, there have been rumors that Buddhist masters appeared in the vicinity of the Corpse Land of Magic Demons. The one who initiated the cocoon, Bingyu Luanfeng, did not dare to easily enter the Corpse Land of Magic Demons to retrieve the head of the Heavenly Demon Lord. Ye Qianxin would not easily want to provoke the bad luck of the Buddhist sect.

With Mount Zhúfuzong standing there, Ye Qianxin's suspicions about Lu Xiaoteng quickly shifted to a fear of the Buddhist sect.

The biggest obstacle this trip wouldn't be Lu Xiaottian. Even if Ming'e, that bald little donkey, reached the late stage of the Nascent Soul, he might not even be able to do anything to Lu Xiaottian. If Lu Xiaottian truly hid in the place where the Shi Qinglei Buddhist inheritance was located, it would indeed be a troublesome matter.

Thinking of this, Ye Qianxun's face darkened. He had spent thousands of years chasing Lu Xiaoteng, not only a long time but also a great price. A mere cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, under his very nose, his strength grew again and again. He still couldn't do anything about it. For Ye Qianxun, even if it wasn't for Lu Xiaoteng's skills and treasures, he would have to kill him. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get rid of the anger in his heart.

“Now it seems, I'll have to visit the Soul-Sinking Land. If it truly involves Sheqing Lei Buddha's relic, then so be it. I won't move a muscle. Even if the Buddhist sect's bald donkeys find out afterward, they won't really dare to touch me.”

Ye Qianxun was after all a generation of heroes, he wouldn't really be scared away by the reputation of the Zhuzhu Buddhist Sect. He quickly made up his mind.
