As the Universe Turns - Chapter 725
Chapter 725 Desert Trail
“Who are you two? You dare to interfere in my affairs? Are you tired of living?”
Seeing the two people suddenly appear, the evil man not only wasn’t afraid, but his gaze turned fierce and he shouted coldly.
The dozen or so of his subordinates were all on alert. Not long after, dozens of silhouettes descended from the strange mountain range that suddenly appeared outside.
‘”It seems like the rumors outside are true. This Black Wind Ridge, known as the’ Ghost Ridge ‘, can appear anywhere in this desert, come and go without a trace. However, if there is no Spiritual Bloodline Force below, can it still move freely …”
On the edge of the cliff, Xiao Chen said indifferently.
“You … who are you!”
This time, when he heard the other party say “Spiritual Bloodline Force”, the expression on the evil man’s face finally became solemn.
“It doesn’t matter who it is. All you need to do is find the way to Wuwang Sea. You can live.” Xiao Chen looked at him, his tone still cold and indifferent.
“Wuwang Sea …”
The evil man narrowed his eyes. Now, he finally understood what was going on. He sneered and said, “But if you want to come and ask Yours Truly for help, is this the right attitude?”
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared from the spot. In the next moment, he appeared in front of Xiao Chen. His attack was as fast as lightning, and his cultivation was clearly not low. However, when he was still half a meter away from Xiao Chen, his entire body seemed to be imprisoned in the air by a mysterious force. No matter how high his cultivation was, he could not move a single bit.
“Then what kind of attitude do you think it should be?”
Xiao Chen put his hands behind his back, and his tone was still cold and indifferent. Only then did the evil man finally see the person in front of him clearly. His entire body instantly felt like he had fallen into an abyss, and he only felt an endless chill enveloping him.
Those eyes were like the coldest abyss in the world. The evil man gradually felt suffocated and his face turned pale. No matter how vicious he was and how many evil things he had done in his life, at this moment, he couldn’t help but tremble under this chill. Just what kind of chill was this?
“Alright, alright … I’ll take you to look for it. However, whether you dare to enter or not has nothing to do with me …”
The evil man kept trembling. At this moment, the endless cold enveloped him. Very quickly, the last line of defense in his heart was destroyed. In the past, he was not even afraid of death. But now, for some reason, under the cold envelope of this person in front of him, he was filled with incomparable fear.
“Just say it earlier. Isn’t it good …”
Meng Xian’er also slowly walked up. She didn’t know when a crimson flower had appeared in her hand. This was the dream flower of the Dream Immortal Sect. Everything mortals experienced when they smelled the flower was like a dream.
At this moment, the dozens of people in Black Wind Ridge couldn’t help but tremble in the face of this aura from her body. They were clearly people who looked like Celestial Immortals, but in their eyes, they were those demonic flowers stained with fresh blood. Beneath their alluring appearance, there was a dense aura of death hidden within.
…
On the morning of the second day, the twenty plus people from the hunch caravan, as well as the middle-aged man and the green-clothed girl, all woke up in a daze. They looked around. It was just an endless desert, where was there any ghost ridge? Could it be that everyone had fallen asleep and had a dream last night?
“Seventh Brother, stop telling those ghost stories of yours in the future. Everyone has nightmares …”
“Hehe, I’m not going to talk anymore, I’m not going to talk anymore.”
“Die’er, are you alright?”
“No, no … Strange, why is there a red flower here …”
…
At the same time, on the other side of the desert, there was a strange path faintly appearing beneath the yellow sand. Stones stood on the side of the road, red flowers were like brocades, and trees were shaded. How could there be such a strange path in the desert? If an ordinary person saw it, they would definitely think it was a mirage.
Unexpectedly, this strange path was the closest path to Wuwang Sea. Normally, it was buried under yellow sand, and no one could find it. To find it, one had to borrow Spiritual Bloodline Force. The evil man from Wuwang Sea came here yesterday, so he knew where this strange path was hidden.
At this moment, the two figures slowly arrived at the front of the road. The person on the left had white hair flying high. It was Xiao Chen, and the person on the right was Immortal Clothes like snow. It was Immortal Meng Xian’er, the Exodus Fairy.
“Not a single person from Black Wind Ridge was left in Fairy last night.”
“Those people are wicked. Why are they staying? Do you want to continue harming others?” Meng Xian’er said indifferently as she walked.
Xiao Chen just didn’t expect that such a peerless Fairy would be even more decisive and fierce than him when killing people.
“Besides …”
Meng Xian’er turned his head, looked at him, and continued, “Those people know where this path is hidden. If the people of Patriarch Motian follow behind them, wouldn’t they also be able to use them to find this path?”
“Fairy’s words are reasonable. Let’s go …”
As Xiao Chen spoke, he had already walked into the strange path. Meng Xian’er glanced at him from behind and followed him slowly.
As soon as the two of them entered the path, the entire road disappeared. There were no more mountains, stones, vegetation, or trees. In front of them, there was an endless expanse of yellow sand.
Until night fell, the two of them had already traveled an unknown distance. It was not appropriate for them to continue on their journey at night. They found a forest and rested for a night. They continued on tomorrow morning. As long as they did not lose their way inside and return to the desert, they would be able to reach Wuwang Sea in about seven days.
That night, the moonlight was cold. The two of them sat in the woods, and only the sound of the wind blew past their ears. After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Chen suddenly said, “When you killed that person this morning, it seems that you said a person’s name from his mouth.”
“Blood Asura …”
Meng Xian’er said indifferently, “He said that he has a foster father called the Blood Asura … To be able to obtain Spiritual Bloodline Force, it seems that this Blood Asura should have a large influence in Wuwang Sea. Sigh, I didn’t expect that he would cause another trouble for no reason …”
Xiao Chen remained silent. Speaking of which, this trip to Wuwang Sea was the second time the two of them had worked together. His main purpose was naturally to see if he could find a way to treat Wuwang Sea’s injuries through the Eye of Spirit Veins.
As for Meng Xian’er, one of her goals was the Devil Scripture. The Devil Scripture she found under the Devil Palace ten years ago was not complete. She wanted to go to Wuwang Sea to see if she could find any clues to the Devil Scripture. In addition, she wanted to help Xiao Chen deal with Patriarch Motian, so she was helping herself.
At the height of Diabolism’s prosperity, it was more than 3,000 years ago. At that time, the Demonic Dodge man, “Heavenly Heart Child”, had unified the various sects of the Demonic Religion, which was also Diabolism’s Heavenly Heart Ancestor. However, after the battle between the Righteous Demons, Heavenly Heart Child’s whereabouts had been unknown, and the Heavenly Book fragment had fallen into the mortal Realm. Later, Diabolism had fallen apart, until today.
Patriarch Motian had always wanted to unify the Devil Religion, allowing Diabolism to return to the peak of the Heavenly Heart Ancestor’s power back then. However, there were already four great Devil Sects in this world. Let alone Patriarch Motian, even if the Heavenly Heart Ancestor was reincarnated back then, he might not be able to unify the Devil Religion again.
Meng Xian’er naturally did not want all the sects in Diabolism to submit to Motian Sect in the end. In this way, if she, Dream Immortal Sect, was unwilling to submit, she would definitely be isolated in the end. At that time, it would be very difficult for her to have a foothold. Therefore, she was helping Xiao Chen at this moment because she was actually thinking about her own future.
Everyone outside felt that Lustless Heaven was ambitious and wanted to annex all the sects in Diabolism. However, she knew that she knew the man sitting beside her. This man had never been as ambitious as Patriarch Motian. All he wanted was to cure that woman …
Therefore, she could be at ease and boldly help this man without any worries.
At this moment, a gentle breeze blew in the woods, causing the leaves to whistle softly. Meng Xian’er suddenly said, “Oh right, I once saw in an ancient book that Wuwang Sea seems to have an ancient technique that can help people recover their souls …”
Xiao Chen was still wondering if he could find a cure for Wei Yang. Hearing her suddenly mention it, Ning Mei asked, “Fairy, are you serious?”
