Chapter 365: Just Escaped the Wolf's Den, Only to Enter the Tiger's Lair!

The Four Saints have returned, in a way that left no trace, and by the time Ye Bai noticed, there was already a doll in his arms.

"Listen to the good news first."

Ye Bai, of course, chose to hear the good news first.

"We knew about Situ Chengdao's situation before we returned, so we have a way to awaken his original personality; we only need to force him to use his own strength. Furthermore, we also learned that you using your full strength within the Tianren Sect for a short time will not have any repercussions."

Wensheng said.

Ye Bai felt a surge of joy in his heart.

Situ Chengdao could return!

Things finally had a turning point!

"And the bad news?"

He then asked.

A few words from Dansheng, however, suddenly caused Ye Bai's heart to sink to the bottom of the valley...

It turned out that shortly after the Four Saints left last night, they had already learned the final fate of those few youths who lacked talent.

Just as Ye Bai had worried from the start, it was fake, all of it was fake!

The Tianren Sect cultivators had just sent the few youths out, and immediately killed them; their corpses were laid out right at the mountain gate of the Tianren Sect!

The reason the Four Saints did not return immediately was because they discovered the tracks of some demonic cultivators nearby who were searching for Ye Bai and Situ Chengdao. They thought that since they were already out, and those demonic cultivators were all near the Tianren Sect, they might as well follow them; perhaps they could hear news about the Tianren Sect.

It was fine not to follow, but after spending some time tailing them, they learned a shocking piece of news.

"The Tianren Sect, while called a sect, is actually just a breeding ground for a Third Step Great Demonic Cultivator..."

"Everything here is fake, all created by that Third Step Great Demonic Cultivator who suddenly wanted to forge a Dharma Treasure decades ago!"

Blue Star has War Soldiers; when Martial Artists use War Soldiers, their combat power increases linearly.

Cultivators in the Xuanyuan World naturally also have weapons that can increase combat power.

However, the weapons used by Martial Artists in the Mortal Realm are called Mortal Weapons.

Those used by cultivators at the Second Step and above are called Dharma Treasures.

It is said they are divided into four grades: Lower, Middle, Upper, and Top Grade.

The Great Demonic Cultivator who created the Tianren Sect wants to forge a Top Grade Magic Treasure; not only does it require a very long time, but the forging steps are exceptionally cumbersome!

As for what specific Dharma Treasure the Great Demonic Cultivator wants to forge, the Four Saints do not know; those demonic cultivators did not mention it, and they could not get too close to the group of demonic cultivators.

One only needs to know that a Third Step Great Demonic Cultivator is presiding over it; this is the reason why no other demonic cultivators have come to the Tianren Sect to loot!

Those demonic cultivators even felt their bodies tremble just passing by the Tianren Sect and seeing that scene filled with immortal aura!

And having learned this news, how could the Four Saints sit still?

Continuing to tail them would not yield more useful information, so the Four Saints went to the nearest human city.

There, they obtained more information about the Tianren Sect!

First, the Third Step Great Demonic Cultivator who created the Tianren Sect is Kuteng Shangren!

Yes, it is that very Kuteng Shangren who caused Heihuang to be forced to hide in Moyuan City all these years, and in the end, even willingly sacrificed his life to gamble for seven days of freedom ten years later!

Secondly, the Four Saints learned that if one accidentally wanders into the Tianren Sect, one must never appear too outstanding, or too trashy.

Because those who die the fastest are usually either the most outstanding disciples or the bottom-tier disciples!

The Four Saints did not learn any more news, because it seems that in all these years, only two people have come out of the Tianren Sect alive, leaving behind the previous information...

Silence!

Ye Bai knew everything that had happened; at this moment, there was only silence!

He only felt it was damn frustrating!

No, were they messing with him?

He had just arrived in the Xuanyuan World and fell into the hands of Hehuan Shangren.

As a result, he had just stepped out from Hehuan Shangren's place, and the next moment he ended up in Kuteng Shangren's hands!

Both are Third Step Great Demonic Cultivators, and even among the Third Step, they are outstanding existences!

One must know that there are many demonic sects, but most demonic sects only have multiple Second Step cultivators, and only the ancestors are at the Second Step Peak.

What kind of dog luck did he have to randomly run into people from a sect and think about sneaking in to avoid the limelight, only to end up at Kuteng Shangren's place?

Ye Bai did not know that he and Situ Chengdao were able to arrive at the Tianren Sect smoothly because other demonic cultivators already knew the situation of the Tianren Sect and did not think Ye Bai and Situ Chengdao would actively seek death.

If they had snuck into the recruitment teams of other sects at that time, it would never have happened that passing demonic cultivators would ignore them or not even interrogate them; they would have been unable to hide themselves at all.

Because those demonic cultivators are all cunning, and they all know that some people possess disguise methods, so when they encounter the recruitment teams of other sects, the lightest treatment is to beat everyone until they are critically injured, and the craziest demonic cultivators would even wipe them out on the spot...

Back to business.

"So, even if I wake Brother Situ up now, I can't immediately fight my way out of the Tianren Sect, right?"

"And furthermore, Brother Situ and I can only survive in the cracks, neither being too outstanding nor being at the bottom, right?"

Ye Bai quickly sorted out his current predicament.

"Master, that is the case, otherwise we will be like we were in Moyuan City, facing a Third Step Great Demonic Cultivator directly." Wu Zhangsheng sighed.

"My journey in the Xuanyuan World is like walking on thin ice!"

Ye Bai smiled bitterly.

He then proceeded to wake Situ Chengdao first.

The current situation was no better than in Moyuan City, and perhaps even worse.

After all, in Moyuan City, he could survive as long as he agreed to Hehuan Shangren; here, although he could not die, he believed that exposing 【Reset】 would be even worse than death.

With one more person to think of a strategy, there is one more glimmer of hope for escape!

"I am Situ Chengdao, I am not Xuanyuan Gousheng!!"

This time, Situ Chengdao was truly and completely awake.

"Brother Bai, are you telling the truth?"

Then, Situ Chengdao also felt like crying but had no tears.

"Brother Bai, we really have just escaped the wolf's den only to enter the tiger's lair..."

"We are truly brothers in misfortune!"

Situ Chengdao also wanted to come up with a way to escape, but unfortunately, even leaving Moyuan City relied on Ye Bai.

Although he was already at the Tenth Grade Martial God Realm, the gap between him and a Third Step Great Demonic Cultivator was still far too great!

The two of them did not sleep that night, and soon it was the next day.

Which is to say, within the Tianren Sect, another ten years had passed!

On this day, the beast taming of Ye Bai and Situ Chengdao both reached the peak of the Mortal Realm Second Stage, which is the Seventh Grade Peak Realm!

They even felt that there was an extra power on their bodies that did not belong to them, but could be used freely, capable of exerting the strength of a Fourth Grade Martial Artist.

This power had appeared yesterday, but it was too weak, only at the First Grade level; whether for Ye Bai or Situ Chengdao, it was as if it did not exist.

And this day was also the day of the Tianren Sect's once-every-twenty-years sect grand competition!

Just after dawn, Ye Bai and Situ Chengdao were summoned together to the same plaza as yesterday!

"Brother Bai, what do you say? How shall we arrange things today?"
