Chapter 528: Three Probes into the Baisheng King Secret Realm (Second Update, requesting all)

Li Zhangsheng hurried to the entrance of the third-floor staircase; he did not summon his Demon Pets, but instead took out the Prohibition Hub.

The next moment, a red, yellow, and blue tricolor Prohibition Light Screen emerged, and under Li Zhangsheng's control, it shrouded half of the third floor of the Library Pavilion.

Among them, the outermost layer was a fire-red restriction; although its defense was the lowest, any Demon Pet that launched a melee attack would suffer fire damage.

The second layer was a water-blue restriction, which used the nature of flowing water to weaken attacks, and the final layer was the earth-yellow restriction with the strongest defense.

According to Li Zhangsheng's conjecture, if the Cangxuan Wind-Fixing Bead were added, the four energies of Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind would blend into one, and the defense would surely increase greatly.

After activating the Prohibition Hub, Li Zhangsheng paid it no more mind; even multiple fourth-rank Demon Tamers would find it difficult to break through the tricolor restriction in a short time.

In the current Xiao Clan Manor, there were likely very few fourth-rank Clan Elders, and many of them had to guard the clan's Important Areas.

Under the temptation of the Purple Jade Radish, the Cold Jade Rabbit began to attack the restriction leading to the fourth floor.

Compared to the restriction at the entrance of the third floor, the restriction on this floor was even more powerful.

Pop~

Unfortunately, it still could not withstand a single strike from the Cold Jade Rabbit and was declared broken.

Li Zhangsheng stepped into the fourth floor; it was unusually empty, containing only one bookshelf and one jade platform.

Among them, the bookshelf was mostly empty, with fewer than ten books, and two Inheritance Jade Slips were placed on the jade platform.

Being placed on the fourth floor and treated so solemnly by the Xiao Clan, their preciousness could be imagined; calling them the Xiao Clan's inheritance treasures would not be an exaggeration.

Just like on the third floor, the bookshelf and the jade platform were entirely wrapped in restrictions.

"No Self-Destruction Restriction, very good!"

Li Zhangsheng took a special look around, and after confirming there was no Self-Destruction Restriction, he began to search for the Library Pavilion's Prohibition Hub.

Without surprise, the Prohibition Hub was hidden on the fourth floor.

Like the Treasure Pavilion, the Library Pavilion's Prohibition Hub was also hidden inside a supporting stone pillar.

At this moment, Li Zhangsheng listened carefully; more and more footsteps sounded, along with the noise of energy explosions, clearly some Xiao Clan members who had arrived early were bombarding the tricolor restriction.

"Kailan, attack the stone pillar!"

Under Li Zhangsheng's command, Kailan condensed a Green Leaf Blade and slashed at the spot Li Zhangsheng pointed to.

Sizzle~ Clatter~

Under Kailan's efforts, a large amount of rubble fell, revealing a square metal box.

This was the Library Pavilion's Prohibition Hub; as long as one forcibly broke it, the Library Pavilion's restrictions could be destroyed.

Li Zhangsheng specifically tried it with the Patriarch Token, but unfortunately, it still had no effect, and he did not know what conditions were required to activate the Prohibition Hub.

In this situation, he could only choose the violent route.

"Xiaoyu, one Purple Jade Radish!"

The outer shell of the Prohibition Hub was naturally exceptionally hard, but for the Cold Jade Rabbit, it was naturally nothing.

The Cold Jade Rabbit revealed a dissatisfied look, but under the power, it could only endure its dissatisfaction and claw at the Prohibition Hub.

While the Cold Jade Rabbit was attacking, Li Zhangsheng retracted Kailan, with the Taiyin Token above his head, and silver moonlight completely wrapped him up.

Sizzle~

An exceptionally harsh grinding sound rang out, countless sparks appeared and were annihilated, and the Prohibition Hub was forcibly split into four pieces by the Cold Jade Rabbit.

Rumble~

Because the energy balance was forcibly broken, the Prohibition Hub, which had been clawed into four pieces, shone brightly and exploded with a bang, and intense energy began to surge in all directions.

The moment the Prohibition Hub was broken, the Library Pavilion's restrictions were instantly annihilated, and Li Zhangsheng took the opportunity to sweep away those books and Jade Slips.

At the same time, Li Zhangsheng retracted the red, yellow, and blue tricolor restriction.

Rumble~

Accompanied by a violent explosion, the Library Pavilion shook violently; the stones and wood that made up the Library Pavilion collapsed, and the huge building disintegrated in an instant.

The Xiao Clan members who entered the Treasure Pavilion were undoubtedly unlucky; they were first pelted by countless stones, wood, and shockwaves, and then buried under the building debris.

This explosion affected a range of several hundred meters, and countless Xiao Clan members were blown away by the aftermath of the explosion; for a time, there were countless casualties!

At the center of the explosion, Li Zhangsheng, protected by the Taiyin Token, did not suffer the slightest bit of damage.

The moment the explosion ended, Li Zhangsheng hugged the Cold Jade Rabbit and suddenly disappeared.

Originally, Li Zhangsheng wanted to continue to take advantage of the situation and rob other important buildings of the Xiao Clan.

Unfortunately, this explosion was too intense, and Qiu City, not far from here, clearly heard the movement; he could vaguely feel several powerful auras flying toward this side.

The first to bear the brunt was the aura of a Pseudo-King; after all, Qiu City was the capital of Huizhou, so it naturally had a Pseudo-King sitting in town.

Besides this Pseudo-King, there were also two auras of Sixth-Rank Experts.

Li Zhangsheng naturally would not do anything stupid, let alone he did not want to expose his identity, so he could only endure his reluctance and perform Instant Movement to quickly leave the Xiao Clan Manor.

After putting some distance between himself and the Xiao Clan Manor, Li Zhangsheng summoned Aixi and flew toward the direction of Yuan Province at the fastest speed.

It took two hours for Li Zhangsheng to safely enter the territory of Yuan Province; during this period, he did not encounter any pursuers or danger, and everything was under his control.

According to the plan he had formulated, he did not return to the Yuanling Academy but flew toward the direction of Li City Fortress.

He prepared to go to the Baisheng King Secret Realm to hide for a few days, because treasures or Secret Techniques like the Seven Luminaries Heaven-Patrolling Incense must have time and distance limitations.

Although the Baisheng King Secret Realm was attached to this world, the two were not completely subordinate to each other; as long as the entrance was closed, one could perfectly exempt oneself from treasures and Secret Techniques like the Seven Luminaries Heaven-Patrolling Incense.

Of course, if it were a higher-level treasure, it might not be unable to ignore the gap between planes, but Li Zhangsheng did not believe Dou Yuanbin possessed such a treasure.

In addition, Li Zhangsheng had investigated the efficacy of the Seven Luminaries Heaven-Patrolling Incense; it could only capture the murderer's aura within three days after the deceased died, but the murderer had to be within a thousand miles.

Langya Kingdom was too small, with only three provinces and one capital, and the distance between the Yuanling Academy and the location where Xiao Mu fell was less than a thousand miles, so it was naturally not very safe; this was also the reason why Li Zhangsheng went to the Baisheng King Secret Realm to take refuge.

Even if Dou Yuanbiao had other similar means, even top-tier treasures or Secret Techniques could only last for five days after the deceased died at most.

In other words, as long as Li Zhangsheng stayed in the Baisheng King Secret Realm for five days, he could sneak back.

As for the camouflage of the Yuanling Academy, everything could only be left to Ning Bizhen.

On the way, Li Zhangsheng had already communicated with Ning Bizhen using the Mother Conch. Ning Bizhen planned to disguise herself as Li Zhangsheng these few days and go into seclusion in the Number One Courtyard.

As for what method Ning Bizhen uses, naturally only she herself knows; items like the Hundred-Change Thousand-Illusion Mask, the Humanity Mask, and the Illusion Appearance Pill can all change one's appearance.

The difficult part is the aura, but Li Zhangsheng had long been prepared, specifically using special containers to store some auras that Ning Bizhen could use at any time.

This time heading to the Baisheng King Secret Realm, besides taking refuge, Li Zhangsheng prepared to take the opportunity to seize a few treasures to continue strengthening his own power.

In just half an hour, Li Zhangsheng rode Aixi and finally arrived at the summit of Luojing Mountain.

Li Zhangsheng did not immediately open the Baisheng King Secret Realm, but instead released his Mental Power; after advancing to the Fifth Rank, the range of his released Mental Power had once again achieved a significant increase, already able to encompass a range of over two thousand meters, completely covering the entire Luojing Mountain.

Judging from the feedback of his Mental Power, Li Zhangsheng did not discover any abnormalities.

Holding to the idea that safety comes first, Li Zhangsheng still summoned Kailan and let her communicate with the nearby plants.

Li Zhangsheng is not just ordinarily cautious, especially regarding details; using history as a mirror, there have been many Stronger individuals in history who fell precisely because of carelessness.

A living example is placed right before Li Zhangsheng; look, isn't the Baisheng King exactly like that?

Kailan closed her eyes, and a green ring of light with her as the center rapidly spread toward the surroundings.

In the time of a few breaths, Kailan began to communicate with several large trees nearby.

Very quickly, both sides finished communicating, and Kailan shook her head at Li Zhangsheng, signaling there was no problem.

Li Zhangsheng finally set his heart at ease; just like last time, he took out the Cangxuan Water-Stabilizing Pearl and the Cangxuan Earth-Fixing Pearl, quickly draining the lake water to reveal the dried-up riverbed and the statue of the Baisheng King.

Without hesitation, Li Zhangsheng used the map to open the Baisheng King Secret Realm.

The next moment, the entire Luojing Mountain shook violently, the statue of the Baisheng King suddenly shone, the void rapidly fluctuated, and finally, it formed a five-meter-high spatial portal.

Li Zhangsheng stepped directly into the spatial portal, and amidst a bout of dizziness, he entered the Baisheng King Secret Realm for the third time.

Unlike last time, this time, Li Zhangsheng used the map to close the Baisheng King portal, only then walking slowly to the Treasure Room in the golden palace.

There are a total of 36 Yuansha Tianluo Ten Extremes Wonderful True Jars here; after the previous two assaults, 12 remain unopened today.

Last time, Li Zhangsheng was still a Fourth-rank Demon Tamer and opened eight Treasure Vats.

This time, with his Fifth Rank strength, he presumably can open several more Treasure Vats.

However, before that, Li Zhangsheng intended to refine the corpses obtained this time, as well as check his harvest from this trip; perhaps he could even use this to increase his strength a little.

Just as Li Zhangsheng was refining Spirit Essence, the Third Prince Dou Yuanbin, who was constantly rushing about and working hard for the throne, suddenly heard the bad news: his maternal clan, the Xiao Clan's greatest reliance, Xiao Mu, had fallen, and the Xiao Clan had suffered over a hundred casualties, with more than half of their elites dead.

At the same time, following the previous Treasure Pavilion, the Xiao Clan Library was also visited by thieves and was even completely looted.

To Dou Yuanbin, this was simply a bolt from the blue; the Xiao Clan could be said to be one of his greatest reliances, yet in one morning, everything returned to the state before liberation. With the Xiao Clan's current situation, not only would it take a long time to recover to their peak period, but they also could not provide him with help in the near future.

Dou Yuanbin was filled with righteous indignation; he immediately headed to his maternal Xiao Clan, firstly to mourn, and secondly to find the true culprit.

At the Xiao Clan Manor, Dou Yuanbin did not see Xiao Mu's corpse, and asking the Xiao Clan members resulted in them knowing nothing; not to mention the culprit's appearance, they didn't even know about his Demon Pet.

Under these circumstances, Dou Yuanbin had no choice but to extract an aura from the items Xiao Mu frequently came into contact with, enduring the heartache to activate the Seven Luminaries Heaven-Patrolling Incense.
