BXBX NOVEL Chapter 352: Countermeasures.
Evading the prying eyes of the Demon God’s Eye through external force, and just relying on oneself were two completely different concepts.
For example, a Divine Ruin Phase Earth Immortal holding a Life Treasure. They could sweep a group of Divine Ruin Phase Earth Immortals, but could it be said that this Earth Immortal was stronger?
No!
He was only able to do so because of the treasure!
At this moment, Taoist Wan Wan was under the shroud of the War God Domain and he did not feel any aura of a treasure. It was unbelievable that he could easily escape the Demon God’s Eye.
[Hum~]!!!
The Demon God’s Eye constantly scanned outside. Compared with the previous time, the Holy Masters this time were obviously paying closer attention. The terrifying eyes lingered for a long time, before finally slowly returning to the Immortal Gate.
“It’s too rigid.”
Su Qin’s illusory figure, shrouded in the War God Domain, quietly watched the Demon God’s Eye recede and shook his head slightly.
If it was an actual Demon God doing so, not to mention that Su Qin was only hiding in the War God Domain, even if he went deep into the void with the help of the War God Temple, he would still be discovered. After all, Su Qin’s current War God Domain was not even a prototype. At most, it could only be a shadow of the world. How could it hide from a Demon God?
Although the Demon God’s Eye was far inferior to the real Demon God’s eye, it was made by several Supreme Powerhouses. It stood to reason that even if Su Qin cannot be found, some clues could still be captured. However, the Holy Masters, who were activating the eye, were unable to exert the treasure’s true power.
“Your Excellency, let’s leave quickly. Otherwise, as soon as several Holy Masters come…” Taoist Wan Wan stared at the huge ancient stone gate not far away, his face changed slightly, as if he suddenly thought of something.
Although Taoist Wan Wan was unwilling, he knew that at this moment, his life was in the hands of Su Qin. Su Qin could make his ancestral aperture collapse with a single thought and his Primordial Spirit would be extinguished. He wouldn’t even have the chance to escape.
Therefore, Taoist Wan catered to Su Qin from the bottom of his heart, as to avoid direct conflict between Su Qin and the Holy Masters.
In the eyes of Taoist Wan Wan, Su Qin might be powerful enough to escape the Demon God’s Eye, but there was still a gap between him and the Holy Masters who stood at the Peak of the Immortal Gate.
The Holy Masters were in charge of the Holy Lands and held the Life Treasures. Unless they encountered direct descendants, who also held the Life Treasures, they could crush them. As for the others… They were not opponents at all.
“The Holy Masters are coming?”
Su Qin smiled slightly, shook his head and said, “They won’t come.”
“They won’t?” Taoist Wan Wan was slightly taken aback.
“If the Holy Masters were willing to come, they wouldn’t have sent you guys in the first place.” Su Qin said lightly.
Like what Su Qin said, at this moment, the Holy Master would not easily enter the Human World until they find out what happened in the Human World.
To become a Holy Master, one must at least be at the Peak of the Divine Ruin Phase. Such an expert had overcome all sorts of obstacles. Unless it was a last resort, who would willingly put themselves in danger?
If the Holy Masters hadn’t activated the Demon God’s Eye just now, then Su Qin would have guessed that Sword Master Jiu Jue and Feng Wang had sent information back to the Immortal Gate before they died.
But in the end, the Demon God’s Eye opened once again.
With this, it could only mean that they didn’t know what had happened.
…
Within the Immortal Gate, in a palace suspended in the sky.
Several Holy Masters gathered together with heavy expressions on their faces.
Feng Wang and Sword Master Jiu Jue died one after another, raising the vigilance in the hearts of the Holy Masters to the highest level. Without hesitation, they activated the Demon God’s Eye again to spy on the Human World.
However, the result was no different from the last time. Even if they spent several times the cost of last time and searched for half an hour, they still ended up with nothing.
“Who did it?!” The Great Beginning Holy Master said in a low voice.
Although the three people who entered the world this time did not belong to the Great Beginning Holy Land, it was the Great Beginning Holy Land that had bestowed the treasure.
The fall of Feng Wang and Sword Master Jiu Jue meant that the treasure had fallen into the hands of others.
How could the Great Beginning Holy Master bear such losses? For thousands of years, it had been the Great Beginning Holy Land always taking other people’s treasures. When did the Great Beginning Holy Land get stolen from?
“Don’t panic.”
“Although it’s a little troublesome, it’s actually not hard to solve.” The Tai Yin Holy Master looked at the other people and said.
“Oh?”
“Do you have a solution?”
“How?”
The Holy Masters all lit up and looked at the Tai Yin Holy Master.
“It’s very simple.” The Tai Yin Holy Master said bluntly: “We just need any one of us to personally go to the Human World.”
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the Holy Masters changed, one after another.
The Tai Yin Holy Master was right. The Holy Masters were at the Peak Divine Ruin Phase and had mastered countless inheritance skills left by Supreme Powerhouses. How could they be compared with Feng Wang and Sword Master Jiu Jue?
Although they didn’t know who in the Human World would be able to easily kill the two Return To Origin Phase Earth Immortals, it didn’t mean that the Holy Masters couldn’t do anything.
It was just that although the method mentioned by the Tai Yin Holy Master was very effective, no Holy Master was willing to do it.
They were very confident in their own strength. Unless a Supreme Powerhouse was born, even if the Holy Masters were defeated, they could still retreat.
But what if?
What if there was really something that could threaten them in the Human World?
Although the possibility was very small, which of the Holy Masters were not old and cunning? Naturally, they were reluctant to take this risk.
Although the death of Return To Origin Phase Earth Immortals made all of the Holy Masters distressed, they could still bear it. But if a Holy Master fell, even if one were to look at the entire Holy Land, it would be a great loss.
“Since the Tai Yin Holy Master said so, why don’t you go to the Human World yourself? Don’t worry, if there’s any change, we will join forces and rescue you.”
The Heavenly Saber Mountain Master said.
“Since that’s the case, just take it as if I didn’t say anything.” The Tai Yin Holy Master shook his head.
“Violet Mansion Holy Master, did Taoist Wan Wan not fall?” At this moment, the Wind God Valley Lord turned his eyes and looked at the Violet Mansion Holy Master, who had not spoken all this time.
“No.”
The Violet Mansion Holy Master closed his eyes for a while, and said, “Wan Wan is a disciple of the Supreme Being. He should have relied on a certain trump card to barely save his life.”
“Indeed.”
The Wind God Valley Master also nodded.
The Violet Mansion Holy Land specialized in Primordial Spirit. Their methods were strange and unpredictable. Taoist Wan Wan was even a disciple of a Supreme Being of the Violet Mansion Holy Land. It was highly likely that a trace of his Primordial Spirit escaped and hid somewhere.
However, after losing the protection of the treasure, even if Taoist Wan Wan survived, he would be unable to return to the Immortal Gate and tell them what happened in the Human World.
“Unfortunately, except for the legendary Primordial Spirit treasure, other treasures could only be activated through Qi. Otherwise, I would like to create a Primordial Spirit Incarnation, to go to the Human World and see.”
The Wind God Valley Master sighed.
Unlike other treasures, Primordial Spirit Treasures obviously don’t rely on Qi.
It was said that there was one legendary Primordial Spirit Treasure in Violet Mansion Holy Land, but the Primordial Spirit Treasures were extremely rare. Its value was almost close to the Destiny Treasures. Of course, the Violet Mansion Holy Land would be reluctant to hand it over.
“Us Holy Masters are the pillars of the Holy Land. We need to stay in the Immortal Gate. We must not leave. But apart from us, we can only send our disciples again.”
“However, before leaving, let them leave a Primordial Spirit Incarnation. Once anything happens, immediately inform us through the incarnations’ link.”
The Heavenly Saber Mountain Master said, with a change of expression.
Before Feng Wang and Sword Master Jiu Jue died, their incarnations managed to rush out. It was only before they could say what happened, did they completely fall.
Therefore, the Heavenly Saber Mountain Master proposed this method.
Even if they failed to save them, at least they could figure out what happened to the Human World, and to whom they fell to.
However, this approach also had flaws.
That was, the disciples they sent would be basically as good as dead.
But, it was ultimately better to let the disciples die than to let them, the Holy Masters, personally take risks.
“Actually, there is absolutely no need for our Holy Land disciples to go.”
“In the world of the Immortal Gate, in addition to the six Holy Lands, there are countless mortal beings. Over the past 10,000 years, many of these mortal beings have embarked on the Martial Arts Path. Now, there are quite a few sects with good strength.”
The Tai Yin Holy Master said.
Before the end of the last Prosperous Era, the Supreme Powerhouses did not only bring their inheritance into the Immortal Gate, they also brought in countless living beings.
After all, even the six Holy Lands need new blood. These people living in the Immortal Gate had multiplied after thousands of years and now numbered hundreds of millions.
Some of the talented ones, because they were unwilling to join the six Holy Lands, established their own sects.
The Holy Lands only turned a blind eye to this, as these sects would die out every few hundred years. Without the same heritage as the Holy Lands, how could they survive?
“That’s right.”
“I have heard that there is a sect called Ten Thousand Flowers Sect, which was founded by Master Wanhua who’s already at the Peak of Return To Origin Phase.”
The Wind God Valley Master’s heart was moved.
He cherished talent and wanted to accept this Master Wanhua as a disciple. After all, this person was able to cultivate to the Peak of Return To Origin Phase without relying on any Holy Land’s resources. Their talent could be imagined.
It was a pity that this Wanhua was arrogant by nature, thinking that they could step into the Divine Ruin Phase all by themselves and ignored the invitation of the Wind God Valley Master.
The Wind God Valley Master was a little annoyed by this, so he chose to watch from the sidelines, wanting to see how this Master Wanhua stepped into the Divine Ruin Phase.
Breaking through to the Divine Ruin Phase not only required talent but also the power of space, which only the Holy Lands could master.
This Wanhua wanting to use their own strength to enter the Divine Ruin Phase was tantamount to a dream, in the Wind God Valley Master’s eyes.
“Then let’s have this Wanhua go to the Human World.”
The Great Beginning Holy Master nodded slightly and said.
“But be careful, you can’t force this Wanhua person too much. Give them benefits to make the other party agree willingly.” The Great Beginning Holy Land said thoughtfully.
With the prestige of the Holy Masters, they could force Wanhua to take the initiative to go to the Human World, but in this way, Wanhua would resent them. If the other party betrayed them once they go over to the Human World, wouldn’t it be like filling a hole-filled woven basket with water?
Therefore, they cannot force the person. They must give benefits, so that they would be willing.
…
Beyond the Immortal Gate.
After waiting for a while, Su Qin realized that he had guessed correctly after finding that the huge ancient stone gate had not moved at all.
The Holy Masters really did not come out.
But it was also human nature. After all, who would easily put themselves in danger without knowing the situation?
Of course, there were a small number of people who were impulsive and did so, even at the risk of life and death. But those who could cultivate to the Peak of the Divine Ruin Phase and become Holy Masters were obviously old foxes, who weighed the pros and cons.
“This stone gate…?”
Su Qin slowly walked to the stone gate and looked up.
The body of the stone gate was dark yellow, with a faint Heaven-tearing and Earth-shaking aura. Obviously, there was a means left by the Supreme Powerhouses on the stone gate.
“It’s a pity.”
Su Qin shook his head slightly, giving up the idea of destroying the Immortal Gate.
If the Immortal Gate was destroyed, it was equivalent to completely disconnecting the Immortal Gate from the Human World. In this way, the Holy Lands would be completely trapped in the Immortal Gate, never being able to return to the Human World.
He could then wait until he was strong enough to re-communicate with the Immortal Gate, go in and Sign In.
But this huge ancient stone gate was obviously not simple. Even if Su Qin had not made a move, he could see that the aura flowing in it could not be shaken by Earth Immortals. Plus, he was too lazy to even take action.
“But if I step into the Peak Divine Ruin Phase, with the first form of the [Buddha’s Palm], ‘Only I Am Supreme’, maybe I could destroy the gate?”
Su Qin’s thoughts moved.
“Even if I can’t destroy it, I can still use the second form ‘Pure Land In One’s Palm’ and seal it for eternity.”
