Chapter 165: The Breath of 'Punishment

Because Lu Fang had heard a word from his conversation with the Literary Minister before, saying that the Luo Sha Kingdom was in a special place, and generally, such a place should have entry and exit restrictions.

Yue You shook his head and nodded, "This place is indeed considered a special place, but it is a place that can be entered, but very few people know about that place. If you don't specifically ask, generally no one will know."

"In recent years, in fact, Wenyuan Academy in Jingcheng has discovered a special place leading to the depths of the scorched earth region, but because it is too dangerous and a bit far from the Luo Sha Kingdom, not many people use it."

Lu Fang was surprised, "That is to say, after this mission to the Luo Sha Kingdom is finished, after returning to Jingcheng, can I still enter the scorched earth region? It's just that it's a bit far from the Luo Sha Kingdom?"

"Yes."

Yue You gave an affirmation.

The reason why Lu Fang said this was not unintentional, but just now when he was talking to Yue You, the Demon Heart suddenly told him that it sensed the existence of the breath of 'Punishment'.

The place it sensed was in the opposite direction to their path, which also gave Lu Fang a big fright.

He had also guessed before that perhaps one day 'Punishment' would leave the trapped small upper realm in some way and come here to find the Demon Heart in his body.

But encountering it so quickly gave him a sense of crisis.

If anyone could enter the depths of the scorched earth region, wouldn't 'Punishment' also come to the Great Zhou from this place?

The Demon Heart could sense the breath of 'Punishment', wouldn't the other party also be able to sense the Demon Heart?

This was definitely not a good thing.

Lu Fang asked anxiously in his heart: "Can 'Punishment' also sense your breath?"

Demon Heart: "I'm not too sure, but it should be able to. That kind of sensing is very strong and will not be ignored because of other situations. If you hadn't come to the scorched earth region before, maybe it wouldn't be able to sense it, because it's very far away, and this is still a special place."

"But now it senses my existence, and I believe it will have any way to find me."

"Sigh, honestly, I don't want this either, but it has already happened."

Lu Fang pondered for a moment and hesitated, "Are you lying to me again?"

After all, the Demon Heart had had bad intentions before. This time it said it sensed the breath of 'Punishment', only it sensed it. There was no way to prove whether it was true or not.

Maybe it just wanted to put pressure on him.

After all, if it followed Lu Fang's temperament, he might really use the Demon Heart for a lifetime. In that case, no matter what it wanted to do, it would be impossible.

Saying that the breath of 'Punishment' existed, in the case of unknown fear, Lu Fang was highly likely to take the initiative. He had never been a person who sat and waited for death.

The Demon Heart made a hoarse laugh, "I can prove I'm not lying. Do you want to sense the existence of the breath of 'Punishment'? I can let you feel it. It's just that the feeling might not be good. I'm just reminding you."

Lu Fang hesitated and shook his head, "I won't give you any chance, and I won't use you."

Demon Heart: "No, no, no, you misunderstood. You don't need to give me any chance or use me. I can let you empathize with the breath of 'Punishment', but that feeling might not be good. I'm just reminding you."

Almost as soon as the words fell.

Lu Fang's heart stagnated, and his whole body stiffened. He looked back at the depths of the scorched earth region with difficulty in breathing. He now clearly sensed that in a very far place, a very familiar breath existed.

That was the breath of 'Punishment'.

Very magical!

It wasn't that the Demon Heart told him, he just inexplicably knew that the breath was 'Punishment'.

"Come quickly..."

One call after another directly acting on Lu Fang's heart, one louder than the other, gradually the sound became louder and louder, until finally, it was like countless thunders striking above his heart.

Lu Fang's forehead began to sweat, and the hair on his body stood up. He unconsciously operated the trend of heaven and earth, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief. He was almost suffocated just now.

Demon Heart: "Believe it now? Did I lie to you?"

The moment it spoke, the calling sound and the sensed breath on Lu Fang's heart disappeared. He gasped for air. That feeling just now was really too uncomfortable.

"Are you okay? Lord Wenguan?"

Yue You, who was standing beside Lu Fang, noticed the abnormality and asked with some worry. Before Lu Fang could answer, he frowned, "Did Lord Wenguan just hear the calling sound from the depths of the scorched earth?"

"This..."

Lu Fang looked at Yue You in surprise. He was frightened.

Everything that happened just now was his communication with the Demon Heart in his heart. How could Yue You know that he heard the calling sound?

Yue You saw Lu Fang's expression and said seriously, "It seems that Lord Wenguan did indeed hear the calling sound just now. Just ignore it. When I first came to the depths of the scorched earth region, I also heard this kind of unknown cheering sound."

"Not just me, in fact, a very large part of the people here can hear that kind of unknown calling sound."

"It's just that in a lifetime, at most, you can't hear it a few times, and some people may only hear it once in a lifetime."

"There is no danger. Just ignore it."

"So that's it." Lu Fang squeezed out a smile, "General Yue, have you also heard this kind of calling sound? Is there no influence?"

Yue You nodded vigorously and comforted, "There is no influence. Just don't pay attention to that calling sound. According to legend, this kind of calling sound is issued by unknown existences in various small upper realms."

"If you don't pay attention, it's fine, but if you are too curious and follow the calling sound you hear in your heart to that place, it is very dangerous."

"There is another saying that some people say this kind of danger is also a kind of opportunity."

"However, there is no doubt that anyone who has gone to find the depths of the scorched earth region will basically die there. Only a very small part has obtained some kind of opportunity and soared into the sky."

Upon hearing this, Lu Fang couldn't help but ask the Demon Heart:

"I felt the breath of 'Punishment', you really didn't lie, but just now I heard you say you didn't want this either. Why is this? If 'Punishment' comes to find you, wouldn't it be a very good thing for you?"

Demon Heart: "I don't want to be found by 'Punishment'. In your body, I can retain my intelligence, as well as everything that happened in the bloodline memory."

"This kind of memory is very wonderful, making me reluctant to discard it."

"If I am really found by 'Punishment' and return to its body, it has enough ability to wipe out my intelligence, which is what I don't want."

Lu Fang's eyes lit up, "Before you left 'Punishment's' body, did you have no intelligence?"

Demon Heart: "I had intelligence the moment before I left 'Punishment'. It used some kind of secret method, but in the ten-plus years in the special place, part of the bloodline memory awakened, letting me know that I actually had intelligence for a long time."

"It was 'Punishment' that wiped out my intelligence several times. That feeling was very uncomfortable. Clearly, 'Punishment' and I were very good friends before, and it also said it liked that I could talk to it, yet it secretly wiped out my intelligence." ===== CHAPTER 166 =====
