Chapter 796 The Master of Separation and Reunion Heads Straight to the North Pole (Part 2)

Su Che couldn't guess what the person who hung the fish was up to, but this situation was clearly more than just a simple matter involving the Changsheng Sect.

"Master, please wait, I have something else to say."

Su Che said cautiously.

The situation is extremely critical right now. If we're not careful, not only will we be implicated in the case of the Demon Lord in Hemp Robes, but the entire Longevity Sect, and most importantly, we ourselves will be involved. We must deal with this with extreme caution.

"Ok?"

The Demon Lord in hemp robes looked at the Yang marrow in front of him.

This disciple, brought back from the outer void, has too many secrets. From the exquisite method of refining the Five Dragons Locking Pill without relying on Yin Demons, to the cultivation and supernatural power that can rival the Mountain Moving Technique, everything about him is suspicious.

However, the Demon Lord in Hemp Robes was not in a hurry. The people of the Demonic Sect were not afraid of secrets. No matter how much scheming and plotting you had, as long as you used the Demonic Infestation, everything would come to light.

Mai originally planned to observe him for a while longer before attempting to corrupt Yang Sui, but then she felt that this kid was a rare commodity, and it might be more worthwhile to wait until he had grown a bit more before corrupting him.

When he traveled through the outer void, he had heard powerful figures from the demonic sects talk about the differences between the paths of gods and demons, especially the subtle and profound mysteries of turning to the path of the Demon Lord.

Both of these are like farming.

The gods believe in sowing widely and reaping little. Regardless of the harvest, they first sow seeds on tens of thousands of acres of land, carefully nurture them, and let them grow. They don't care about what they take or use; they seek success naturally through hard work.

The Demon Lord is different. Compared to the God Lord, he is more meticulous. If he encounters a suitable seedling, he will spend thousands of times more effort to cultivate and nurture it. When all the conditions are right, he will use the method of corruption to change the seed into a demon and greatly improve his cultivation.

Mai's original intention was that if the Yang marrow in front of him was indeed usable, then he should be kept as a test subject for the path of the Demon Seed, so as to properly experience the mysteries of the Demon Lord's path.

Now that Yang Sui has taken the initiative to speak, he will naturally ask with a smile, just like a kind elder.

"Yang Sui, just say what you have to say."

"Reporting to Master, I have heard some things about the battle at the Earth Official Immortal Mansion in the sect these past few days."

Su Che's words were not false.

After all, the battle between the Earth Official and the Immortal Abode can be considered one of the few major events in the entire cultivation world in recent decades, no, in recent centuries.

There are probably only two other items that can be compared with it.

One was the shattering of the Yin-Yang boundary, the establishment of the Hungry Ghost Realm, and the Western Buddhist sect finally gaining a foothold in the Central Plains.

Another event was that the Divine Firmament Path and the Yellow Heaven Path joined forces with the Western Heaven Buddhist Kingdom to fight their way to the depths of the outer realms and kill the unfortunate Lord of the End of Dharma, who was named the Mighty and Fearless Heavenly Demon King, which shocked all the demonic sects in the world for a long time.

It turns out that the old Taoist priest with sparse hair and the bald monk could still cooperate when dealing with us.

However, the battle between the Earth Official and the Immortal Abode quickly surpassed the former two in terms of status in the martial arts world.

Firstly, the background of this battle was simply too powerful.

It is a celestial palace left behind by the Earthly Official Emperor during the ancient Heavenly Court. The Earthly Immortal Heavenly Venerable of Xuandu Palace personally intervened, and even the Demon King of Juntian Guangletian manifested within it.

Secondly, the price paid by the cultivation world in this battle was simply too enormous. The Celestial Masters Sect, the Divine Firmament Sect, the Qiantang Dragon Clan, the East Sea Sword Palace... far too many disciples perished here. The sheer number of their names alone is terrifying.

What about Huang Tiandao, the Marquis of Changxin of Daliang, Su Che, and Yun Luo, the young master of the Qiantang Dragon Clan...?

Many well-known young masters lost their lives, and dozens of established masters, including Bu Xu, died in the process.

As for the third one, it has the greatest impact.

According to what Su Che heard, after their family "died," Li Shouchang and Jiang Shoucheng took a risky approach, searching everywhere for people to cause trouble, determined to find their whereabouts and confirm the "grand conspiracy" behind it all.

The entire northern lands were thrown into chaos by these two Void Steps, and they even clashed with the Immortal of Longevity several times.

Besides the two of them, Yunluo, the young master of the Qiantang Dragon Clan, "disappeared" on his way home. This was the young master of the Dragon Clan who had been personally acknowledged by Guangyuan Tianzun to have left, but he just got lost on the way in a daze.

Enraged, the Qiantang Dragon Clan spread their fury, and since it was related to the Treasure Book of Fortune, it naturally attracted the covetous eyes of various parties.

Later, several more incidents occurred.

It can be said that since the battle between the Earth Official and the Immortal Mansion, the turmoil behind it has not only not stopped, but has intensified.

Of course, as a new portal for the Northern Demonic Sect, the Arctic Yuan Palace could not escape the turmoil within.

Because someone witnessed the incarnation of Miaogaotian breaking into the palace with two disciples, it attracted various forces to harass the area. If it weren't for Beinutian's amazing cultivation and stunning skills, which protected the sect well and ruthlessly killed several ignorant Six Desires Demons, even the Beiji Yuan Palace would have been overturned in this turmoil.

"The Arctic Yuan Palace has been in turmoil. The master's intention to send his disciples is well-intentioned. However, one should always be wary of others."

Su Che's words at this moment were quite appropriate. "After all, it involves the Earth Official Immortal Mansion, a treasure of great fortune that is coveted by cultivators throughout the world. If the North Pole Yuan Palace intends to silence us, Master must investigate thoroughly."

The saying goes, "Say only half the truth."

Su Che didn't explain, but with the skills of the Hemp-Clad Demon Lord, let alone the Sorrowful Heaven personally taking action, even if he faced the Myriad Heavens, would he dare to say that he would definitely win?
Not to mention that the Arctic Yuan Palace isn't just comprised of these two brothers.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The Demon Lord in Hemp Robes laughed loudly.

He turned his head and looked at Hua Gu and Jin Yunu beside him.

Do you think Yang Sui's statement makes sense?

Jin Yunu spoke first: "Junior Brother Yang is right, but I thought that Master was unparalleled in his wisdom and supernatural powers and must have made arrangements in advance. Junior Brother is overthinking things."

"Hua Gu, what about you?"

The Demon Lord in hemp robes stared intently, and Hua Gu bowed his head and said, "This disciple did not think of that for a moment, please punish me, Master."

"Slippery."

The Demon Lord in hemp robes waved his sleeve in displeasure.

"Even Yang Sui could figure this out. One of you says he's overthinking it, and the other says he can't figure it out. This isn't a lack of effort; it's being too focused and unwilling to contribute to the main body."

The Demon Lord in hemp clothing spoke with great emphasis, and Jin Yunu and Hua Gu kowtowed along with him, repeatedly saying that they had no such intention.

Su Che's feet went numb for a moment. This old ghost in hemp clothes actually used him as a tool to knock on the door. He originally had a harmonious relationship with these two senior sisters. After his meddling, wouldn't it add a lot of conflicts?
Next time the two of them are whispering sweet nothings to each other, they definitely won't ask me to go sightseeing.

That old devil is truly infuriating.

"Alright, get up. Very well, this time I'll take you all with me, and Yu Nu doesn't need to go back to the Longevity Sect."

Seeing that the two of them begged for mercy again, the Demon Lord in hemp clothing calmed down and said lightly.

"Now I'll be frank with you all. We can't be considered outsiders to the Beiji Yuan Palace. I've even met Senior Brother Bei Nu Tian before. This time, I'm going as a half-host. Therefore, you all need to be more careful with your manners and avoid causing any trouble."

Upon hearing this, the three nodded in agreement, each indicating that they would follow their teacher's instructions.

Su Che was secretly surprised.

The Northern Yuan Palace has indeed extended its reach far enough, even getting involved in the south.

The Demon Lord in Hemp Robes is slaughtering his fellow disciples and colluding with the north. Does he really think that the Demon Lord of Annihilation is just a figurehead? Isn't he afraid that the Demon Lord will punish him in his rage?
This old ghost can't stay out of the Ninth Heaven forever, can he?

While Young Master Su was still plotting his next move, the Demon Lord in Hemp Robes took flight with them, unleashing his exquisite void magic and leading the group straight towards the North Pole.

The Demon Lord in Hemp Robes' escape technique was quite peculiar. It seemed that he used his magic to construct a bowl, put the four people inside, and then used his power to fly away.

Not only was his escape technique ingenious, but his movements were also quite sophisticated.

Unlike before, he didn't walk along the edge of the cracked earth, allowing Su Che to fully appreciate the magnificent scene of the shattered world.

Instead, they went to the other side of the earth, much to Su Che's surprise.

There is no other reason.

Because the earth had cracked open, like a scroll being unfurled, and behind this scroll were twenty-four enormous bronze pillars.

Indeed, there were twenty-four bronze pillars, as large as mountains, inserted into the back of the earth, each radiating a blue and purple light.

"This is……"

"Don't get close to these twenty-four Earth-Stabilizing Needles. Besides their powerful sealing techniques, each of these needles is guarded by a Celestial Venerable of the Mysterious Gate. In the past, someone as insignificant as us could be turned to ashes with a mere wave of their hand."

Jin Yunu explained from the side.

"Such a large bronze pillar must have required an enormous amount of materials."

Su Che was mesmerized by what he saw, while Hua Gu and Jin Yunu beside him burst into laughter upon hearing this.

The Demon Lord in hemp clothing, controlling his escape technique, coldly laughed.

"What earthly immortals and celestial venerables they are? They are nothing but twenty-four unlucky laborers. Let's ignore them and go to the North Pole Yuan Palace first."
