Chapter 867

The Fire Emperor can now be said to be truly empty-handed; he is simply unlucky to the extreme.

However, if the people persecuted in Donghuang City heard this news, they would naturally be happy.

They would definitely shout: "The cycle of heaven is good; it's not that there is no retribution, it's just that the time hasn't come yet."

Looking at everyone, Wuma Yixuan added: "Remember my warning. After three years, the Fire Emperor will return to a normal body, but if he doesn't listen to advice, it will make the injuries worsen!

Now he still needs to stay here for three days. I will observe his state all the time, and I can handle any situation in time."

The Fire Emperor's personal guard hurriedly said: "Good, good, good. Thank you, Physician Wuma!"

Meanwhile.

North Sea region.

Sea Demon Island Central Council Hall.

The strongest Demon race True God clone here and the World God King were sitting in the main hall discussing matters with Geng Xue.

"Before, Duanshui and Duan Tian went out holding two Purple Light Tokens, but they died. Not only did our race lose two great generals, but we also lost two extremely precious Ghost Energy Secret Realm tokens.

This loss directly reduced our Demon race's chances of entering the Ghost Energy Secret Realm from four to two!

This loss cannot be said to be small; it is simply an unbearable pain."

"And we still haven't investigated the culprit who killed these two people. This point makes me even more heartbroken!"

Geng Xue bit her cherry lips tightly and said with a sad face: "It... it is my dereliction of duty. I didn't consider it comprehensively, which allowed people to take advantage of it, leading to this result."

The World God King was silent for a few seconds and said: "I don't blame you. I know your friendship with the two of them. You gave them a token each so that they could compete fairly, but who knew this would benefit others instead.

However, I can now feel that the Purple Light Token has begun to react and is fluctuating in a certain direction. And I have a premonition that the Ghost Energy Secret Realm will appear in these recent years.

At most, at most three years, it will open!"

Although his clone only had god-level strength, he was knowledgeable and his insight was not weak.

The reason he suffered a loss at Zhao Xing's hands last time was because Zhao Xing's methods at that time were simply too brilliant.

But regarding the sensing of the Purple Light Token, he believed he was absolutely not wrong. That abnormal fluctuation would be a sign of the imminent opening.

"However, after discussing with other Demon races, I can only cancel the chance I gave you before. After discussion, it was decided to give the last spot to the Dragon God lineage of the South Sea."

Hearing this, Geng Xue had no surprised expression on her face.

If the chance could still be retained now, that would be a ghost. Although this time it wasn't her fault, she was the one who issued the order. If something went wrong, she would definitely have to bear joint responsibility.

Chapter 296: Purple Light Secret Realm About to Open! Exploring the Black Market Again!

So Geng Xue nodded seriously and said: "This is natural. Even if you didn't say it, I would have proposed it."

The World God King looked deeply at Geng Xue and slowly said: "Very well, since this is the case, I will leave for a period of time. You should cultivate well during these few years and guard the North Sea Demon Island well when I am away."

"Rest assured, I will absorb the previous experience and guard the Sea Demon Island well!"

"Good, since this is the case, there is no other major matter. However, the search for the person who killed the sons of our race must be kept up.

We will not give up until we find them. Do you understand!"

Having said this, the World God King's face became extremely serious.

This loss of two Purple Light Tokens made him suffer great passivity at the Four Directions Demon Meeting. If it weren't for his strong strength, his own chance would also be lost.

And then there was this Geng Xue. If she hadn't stayed on the North Sea Demon Island for nearly a hundred years and contributed greatly to the island, he would have suspected that Geng Xue had deliberately given the chance to others.

Fortunately, there were so many things to support her, so the World God King did not question Geng Xue.

Coupled with the fact that she herself had already sensed the abnormality of the Purple Light Token and the Ghost Energy inheritance was about to open, she gathered all her mind and began to prepare for this major action.

Time flies.

One year later.

One year later, not just him.

Everyone holding a Purple Light Token had more or less sensed the abnormal information emitted by the Purple Light Token.

It was just that the true powerhouses knew that the inheritance was about to open, while some only sensed the abnormality but didn't know the reason.

But this news couldn't be hidden.

At first, it was just a small piece of news, then it became a rumor in the streets, until this news was confirmed by a powerhouse, which caused a huge disturbance.

Coupled with the gorgeous aurora-like scene appearing in the snow mountain in the middle of the Jialuo Continent, the news was completely confirmed.

Soon, this news spread throughout the entire Jialuo Continent.

Inside a tavern in the Heaven-Reaching Gang.

A group of burly men were discussing this matter.

"Have you heard? A heaven and earth phenomenon recently appeared at the Ridge Magnetic Snow Mountain, suspected to be a heavy treasure about to appear. Are you interested in teaming up to take a look?"

"Isn't it said that that is where the Ghost Energy Secret Realm opens? How did it become the source of a heavy treasure again?"

"You don't know this, do you? Every time a secret realm opens, it is accompanied by the appearance of heavy treasures. It is said that these heavy treasures are all erupted from the secret realm."

"Forget it, aren't we looking for trouble by going out? That group of bastards definitely wants to kill us."

"Simple, we brothers pool money to go to the black market to buy a secret technique for disguise. When the time comes, the world is so big, who can recognize us?"

Several big men were just chatting for fun, but they didn't expect that someone would actually come up with a plan and consider the future path clearly.

If they really went to the black market to buy a disguise technique as he said, this method was indeed feasible.

One of them frowned and said worriedly: "But the secret technique of disguise has never been cheap, not to mention that the secret technique suitable for our lords is not cheap either."

"No matter what, we have saved some money over the years, right? Pooling it together should be enough. Maybe we can buy a suitable one at a small stall in the black market?"

A scarred man on the side nodded when he heard this: "We can try."

The opinion was reached, and everyone began to plan the time, preparing to take a stroll in the black market.

It wasn't just these few men; the content discussed by everyone in the tavern was related to the opening of this Ghost Energy Secret Realm.

And in the corner of the tavern, Zhao Xing was holding a wine glass and tasting fine wine.

Watching everyone in the tavern, Zhao Xing couldn't help but sigh: "It's truly a storm coming, the real storm is about to start."

Beside him was Yan Qi, who had been in the second-level closed-door cultivation area and had only come out in the last few days.

But compared to Zhao Xing's strength advancement, he seemed a bit weak. Now his strength had only reached the fifth level of the Venerable Realm from the third level.

This didn't even count Zhao Xing's first tribulation, and now Zhao Xing, after a year of hard work, was even more powerful!

After coming out of closed-door, Yan Qi also knew what had happened during this period.

Now he looked at Zhao Xing as if looking at a god, and he was thoroughly convinced: "Yes, Brother Zhao, then what preparations should we make next?"

Zhao Xing had just come out of closed-door cultivation to relax; otherwise, being in closed-door cultivation all day, no one could bear it.

And Zhuyue only accompanied him for a little while before running around the Heaven-Reaching Gang like a curious baby.

Only Yan Qi was left by his side.

"No rush. Our most important goal now is still to improve our strength. Now it's definitely impossible for the two of us to go to the human race openly.

Because my disguise was seen through by a True God of the Demon race before, so it's not very safe."

Hearing this, Yan Qi's eyes showed shock.

You must know that Zhao Xing's ability to hide his face before wasn't even seen through by the peak god-level Rong Shao.

But there are people beyond people, and heaven beyond heaven; this kind of thing would happen sooner or later.

Yan Qi took a deep breath and asked with confusion in his eyes: "So Brother Zhao, do you mean we should also go to the black market to buy a disguise secret technique like those people just now?"

"Hmm." Zhao Xing nodded and pondered: "It's worth a try; maybe there will be some surprises."

Having said this, Zhao Xing paused: "But we still need to take one more person, otherwise there will be unnecessary trouble."

"Very well, Brother Zhao, whatever you say, I will do. From now on, I, Yan... Yuanfang, will follow your lead!"

Seeing him still so cautious, Zhao Xing smiled and said: "Ha ha, now that the identity is exposed, you don't need to be so cautious. You can use your real name here."

"Isn't this just a habit? To tell you the truth, the days spent here are truly good, without the trivial disturbances of the secular world, and one can completely empty one's mind and cultivate."

"Let's not talk about this, let's solve what's in front of us first."

As he spoke, Zhao Xing drank the wine in his hand and stood up from the table: "Let's go, prepare to set off."

Yan Qi hurriedly stood up and followed Zhao Xing toward the outside.

And the person Zhao Xing said he wanted to find was Gong Jian, because the token to enter the secret realm was in his hands.

Who knew that when they first met, Gong Jian was directly shocked by Zhao Xing's rank: "King Prince Hong Xing... you... you have reached the ninth level of the Venerable Realm now?"

"Hmm, I've been in closed-door cultivation for more than a year, a small advancement."

Seeing him nod, Gong Jian couldn't believe it.

In just one year, this King Prince Hong Xing had actually advanced from the early stage of the seventh level of the Venerable Realm to the peak of the ninth level, which was the so-called demigod.

This simply overturned his cognition. You must know that ordinary people, even if they work themselves to death for a year, can at most advance by one level or so.
