Chapter 85

"This Saint absolutely has no malicious intent, you must not overthink it!" Yunlei Jingling leaned back slightly, dodging the Ice Spear Xiao Han was thrusting at him, while continuously defending himself.

"Continue."

Xiao Han's movements paused for a moment, but his gaze clearly indicated that if Yunlei Jingling's answer did not satisfy him, he would definitely make him pay dearly.

It was not that Xiao Han had an overly irritable temper; although he was not very clear about the great war from back then, even the scraps of information he had obtained from his inheritance allowed him to perceive the strength of the opponents and the brutality of the war.

The strength of the Dou Qi Continent in the ancient era was much greater than it is now; today, those so-called Ancient Races would have been nothing out of the ordinary back then. It was truly a time where Dou Zuns were as common as dogs, Dou Shengs walked everywhere, and even Imperial Dou Emperors were not few in number.

Being able to beat such a prosperous civilization into the miserable state of near-extinct inheritance today is enough to prove the strength of the other side.

Even though tens of thousands of years have passed and the other side is only the end of their rope, being the fish that escaped the net back then, Xiao Han still dared not repeatedly dance on the edge of courting death.

"I have been to that place once." However, Yunlei Jingling's next sentence made Xiao Han lower his prepared attack.

"You've been there? You were actually able to get in!"

Xiao Han was somewhat caught off guard by this answer. He had always thought that this seal could isolate all communication, never imagining there was such an inside story.

"Tell me in detail..."

Since Thunder Spirit could successfully pass through the seal and come out from inside safe and sound, Xiao Han, who was more powerful than him, suddenly felt his confidence rise.

"This Saint entered the Sealed World about a hundred years ago. At that time, their strongest was roughly a Nine-Star Dou Sheng, though this is what I sensed."

Thunder Spirit's tone was somewhat strange, "Their title for that Nine-Star Fighting Saint seemed to be something like Demon King? The power they used was a thing called Evil Qi."

"Moreover, their power is highly corrosive. At that time, if it hadn't been for many experts using their lives as sacrifices to forcibly disperse that so-called Evil Qi, our losses might have been even greater."

Evil Qi? Demon King?

Xiao Han's heart skipped a beat. Oh no, could this be that group of Outer Realm Evil Clan from the Da Qian World?

Xiao Han actually didn't know exactly what was inside the seal, only guessing that it might have been a war between planes.

But if it really was the Outer Realm Evil Clan, then it wasn't an ordinary plane war; that was called an invasion, and relative to the Dou Qi Continent, the other side was definitely a dimensional strike.

However, Xiao Han immediately realized; indeed, if it really was a detachment of the Outer Realm Evil Clan, it could indeed have shattered the Dou Qi Continent of that time, leading to the mysterious disappearance of many Imperial Dou Emperor experts.

Perhaps this is what they mean by "prosperity leads to decline"?

The strength and rules of the Dou Qi Continent were indeed a bit outrageous compared to other places; this was a place where the appearance of one Imperial Dou Emperor could directly pull up a group of Dou Shengs.

It was also because of this that the Dou Qi Continent of that time produced experts in succession; perhaps... maybe it provoked a backlash and was arranged by the Heavens of the Da Qian World?

However, for that group of suspected Outer Realm Evil Clan fellows, it was also their bad luck to have run into the Dou Qi Continent of that time.

Otherwise, with their strength, they could likely have been invincible in any lower plane, yet they ended up planting themselves here.

"You dared to go there when there was a Nine-Star Dou Sheng? And you were able to come back alive?" Xiao Han immediately reacted.

"And didn't you say that the corrosiveness there is very strong? With your level of strength, you probably wouldn't be enough to look at, right?"

"This is exactly what I wanted to tell you!" Thunder Spirit clapped his hands suddenly; brother, you finally GET the point.

"According to my investigation, that group of things is very strange; they can devour their own kind to forcibly increase their cultivation and extend their lifespans."

As time passes, their power has been constantly leaking without replenishment, and the number of experts is also constantly decreasing.

And in order to keep living, they are constantly devouring, which has accelerated this speed.

At least according to my investigation, there are only ten of them whose aura can be called Dou Sheng now, and that Nine-Star Dou Sheng is also nearing the end of his lifespan, on the verge of death, with a large group of people waiting to devour the remains he leaves behind after he dies."

At the mention of this, Thunder Spirit couldn't help but sneer; they are indeed an alien race, inhuman beasts.

"As for the pollution..." At the mention of this, a trace of arrogance appeared on Thunder Spirit's face.

"This Saint is a Heaven and Earth Exotic Item, an existence that all evil cannot invade. With my powerful strength, how could I be troubled by this mere Evil Qi?"

Fine, you're capable. Xiao Han gave him a disdainful look; do I not know your situation?

"How is their specific strength?" Xiao Han stroked his chin, pondering. Hearing this guy say it like this, it seems there is something to be done. With his strength, even if he couldn't beat them, he could still grab his bucket and run.

"Their ranks seem to be Demon Commander. If based on the power levels of our Dou Qi Continent, there are about five Low-level Dou Shengs, which pose no threat to us."

"Three Mid-Stage Dou Shengs, and one who seems to be around Seven-Star; these are the more troublesome ones."

"Plus that dying Nine-Star Dou Sheng, that is everything I know."

Mentioning this, Thunder Spirit's tone became a bit more cautious. Even a dying Nine-Star Fighting Saint, with less than one-tenth of his strength, the power he could erupt with before death was not something they could shake.

Xiao Han's eyes narrowed; to kill the other side, he must find a scapegoat!

"However, there is one more piece of good news," Thunder Spirit then continued, "These guys are usually scattered everywhere, which is convenient for us to break them one by one."

"You want to stir up trouble?" Xiao Han squinted at him. He didn't expect that while this guy was cold on the surface, his inner soul of courting death was also constantly burning!

"Eh? How did you know?" Just after saying this, Thunder Spirit suddenly reacted. Oh no, the secret was out.

"You were tricking me?" he said, astonished.

"Hmph, did I even need to guess?" Xiao Han sneered, "Such detailed intelligence definitely couldn't be figured out in one or two times. Tell me, how many times have you gone in?"

Thinking about it, Xiao Han felt a lingering fear. This guy's guts were big enough; if he had really had some accident and let these ten Dou Shengs run out, the Dou Qi Continent would probably be turned upside down now.

"Maybe seven or eight times!" he muttered in his heart. That was just for the last ten years; in these hundred years, he had run in and out of this seal nearly forty times.

Ever since he discovered that the creatures in the seal only had that little power left, the idea of using the seal to wipe out all future troubles at once had formed in his mind.

Having been trapped by the seal for so many years, he had long wanted to solve the trouble once and for all. It's just that to do this, he had to wait until all the Dou Sheng experts inside were dead.

Unlike the Heavenly Ice guarding other seals, whose power has continued to weaken to the point where this goal is impossible to achieve.

Thunder Spirit's strength is growing; as one grows and the other wanes, it is only a matter of time before he achieves his goal.

And with his original strength, he naturally would have needed a long time of dormancy, but Xiao Han's appearance provided the possibility for his plan to be implemented ahead of schedule.

Take a gamble, and the bicycle becomes a motorcycle. As long as Xiao Han and he join forces to take out all the Dou Sheng-level experts, he can leave this place early.

The road to freedom is right ahead.

Let's go!
