Chapter 140: Chapter 140: The Son of Grand Venerable Bai Jiei

Translator: 549690339

In Li Cheng’s perception, the Underworld Dungeon turned into a colorful, resplendent structure!

Each brick, each tile, every component was wreathed in a five-colored aura!

“The forces of the five elements; metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, construct this dungeon, their powers forever regenerating, and there are also mysterious patterns hidden within, akin to the ones on the Ascend to Immortal Platform.” “Just by looking at these five forces, they are very balanced, indicating they are likely from the same creator. Could it be the work of the Five Elements Great Emperor?”

“No, that can’t be right. The Underworld Dungeon has obviously existed for a very long time, while the Five Elements Great Emperor was a powerful figure from millions of years ago. It wasn’t him.”

Within a few breaths, Li Cheng had already left the state of enlightenment, his eyes showing a contemplative expression.

“It seems that even before the time of the Five Elements Great Emperor, there must have been a powerful being who was a master of the Five Elements Power!”

Li Cheng thought to himself and suddenly remembered the last words of that Earth Elf Clan powerhouse.

He had asked to tell the Five Elements Elf Tribe to come here to pay tribute to their ancestor. Could this ancestor be the master of the Five Elements Power that he spoke of?

Previously, the Evil Master had hinted that the Earth Elf Clan member’s joining of the Ten Thousand Evils Cave had another purpose, so it’s quite likely that he was searching for something left by this powerful being.

The reason for his self-explosion wasn’t because he was provoked by Li Cheng, but because he knew the Evil Master had discovered his true intention, and death was imminent. Thus, he chose that opportunity to self-destruct.

With this thought, Li Cheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The structure of this Underworld Dungeon had reverted to its true form. It seemed to be an ordinary place but was actually an immensely powerful forbidden area. The Evil Master must have been trapped inside.

It is unknown how long he has been trapped. Whether he was imprisoned during Grand Venerable Bai Jie’s time or after he vanished and the Ten Thousand Evils Cave was established.

It’s very possible that he was the one who cultivated the Ten Thousand Traits Stealing the Heavenly Scripture!

Suddenly, Li Cheng focused his gaze toward the distance, quickly left the dungeon, took the two elders into the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod, and hid in the distance, lying in wait.

Before long, a middle-aged man broke through the sky and landed next to the Underworld Dungeon, matching its pace, “Evil Master, have you summoned us?”

“Hmm, Seventh Protector, we’ll discuss the important matters once everyone has arrived,” the voice of the Evil Master transmitted.

Seventh Protector nodded, “I heard that the Eighth Protector has fallen? There shouldn’t be any Lower Realm People in the Southern Domain capable of killing him. Does Evil Master knowwhat happened?”

“Are you intentionally asking obvious questions? You’ve been on this level the whole time. The Eighth Protector self-destructed on the level above. With such a commotion, didn’t you go to investigate?” The Evil Master sneered coldly.

Seventh Protector’s face tensed up, promptly replying, “I’ve gone to investigate, but everything was destroyed in his self-explosion, making it impossible to uncover anything.”

“Hmm, the Eighth Protector did have courage, a pity indeed!” the Evil Master said with a cold laugh.

Seventh Protector kept a calm demeanor and shifted the topic, “Evil Master, I’ve always been puzzled. With our power, we could easily sweep through the Southern Domain, so why do we hide?”

“Sweep through the Southern Domain? You’re underestimating it far too much. Without me, any action you take would be suicide!” The Evil Master said gravely.

Seventh Protector frowned. He had discussed with the other protectors, and none had found any formidable beings hidden in the Southern Domain, only some Loose Immortals.

Could there truly be a terror as the Evil Master claims?

“Of course I believe in Evil Master, but it’s just too suffocating to be cowered with so many Golden Immortals and even a few Daluo Golden Immortals among us!” Seventh Protector said.

In the distance, Li Cheng’s eyelids twitched as he heard this. The Ten Thousand Evils Cave actually had Daluo Golden Immortals?

With such power, they still needed to hide?

What kind of terrifying presence exists in the Southern Domain that would make them stay in hiding?

Upon second thought, it made sense. Relying solely on the combined forces of the ten major sects, they weren’t even able to handle a single protector!

Only a hidden peerless entity could cause the Evil Master to order a retreat, refusing to provoke the Southern Domain allied troops. After all, if they killed too many of the allied troops, the hidden strong entity would definitely reveal themselves.

Li Cheng came to a realization. No wonder back then, during the encirclement of the Sects Alliance meeting, only Loose Immortals had appeared and no stronger entities, presumably for fear of attracting the hidden peerless entity. “Frustrated? If you know frustration, then hurry up and find Li Baijie’s son!” The Evil Master snorted coldly.

“We’ve tried everything, but we simply can’t find Bai Jie… perhaps Li Baijie’s son has already ascended to the Immortal World? After all, according to time, his son would be over ten thousand years old by now, possibly even long deceased,” the Seventh Protector said helplessly.

“I have said it before, Li Baijie’s son is still in the Kunlun Southern Region. Are you doubting me?”

“Of course not. We have already covertly investigated all the appropriate Loose Immortals, there’s simply no sign of him!” The Seventh Protector was even more helpless now.

Their conversation made Li Cheng even more curious. Grand Venerable Bai Jie had descendants alive?

What do they want with Grand Venerable Bai Jie’s son? To help the Evil Master escape his confinement?

But this Underworld Dungeon was left by the ancestors of the Five Elements Elf Tribe. Even if Grand Venerable Bai Jie’s son came, how could he possibly help? “Seventh Protector, I just received a piece of information that might be useful in our search for Li Baijie’s son.” A magnetic voice came from afar.

The next moment, a lean middle-aged man appeared beside the Seventh Protector, walking at the same level as the dungeon.

“Third Protector, what information have you obtained?” The Evil Master’s voice rang out.

Before the dungeon, the Third Protector bowed and then said, “After Grand Venerable Bai Jie disappeared, no one from the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was able to ascend. I investigated covertly and realized that this matter should be related to his son!”

“To be specific, Li Baijie once had dealings with the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.

I do not knowwhat agreement they reached, but the Heavenly Mechanism Sect in the Immortal World closed its gates and cast a certain secret technique, preventing anyone from the Heavenly Mechanism Sect in the Kunlun Realm from ascending. All of this was for Grand Venerable Bai Jie’s son!”

“To be precise, it was to conceal his son’s identity!”

After the Third Protector finished speaking, he looked toward the Seventh Protector, “I’ve nearly exposed my identity doing these things, the rest is up to you and the other protectors!”

A light flashed in the Seventh Protector’s eyes, “Li Baijie’s son is in the Heavenly Mechanism Sect!”

“It seems we need to investigate the Heavenly Mechanism Sect’s Loose Immortals once again!”

The Third Protector shook his head, “No, we have to investigate everyone in the Heavenly Mechanism Sect!”

The Seventh Protector frowned, for he knew well that with millions of people in the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, such an investigation would not be easy.

A slight smile played on the corners of the Third Protector’s mouth, “Don’t assume Li Baijie’s son is over ten thousand years old. I suspect that before he left, Li Baijie used some secret technique that we do not know of on his son, changing his soul’s aura or even his bloodline aura, perhaps even his bone age.”

The Evil Master laughed, “The Third Protector has not disappointed me. Indeed, these things would be effortless for Li Baijie!”

The Third Protector bowed again toward the dungeon, “Rest assured, Evil Master, having traced it to this extent, I believe it won’t be long before we can obtain his son’s fresh blood and lift the seals of the Underworld Dungeon!”

The Seventh Protector also swiftly paid his respects, saying, “Please be at ease, Evil Master. The seals left by Li Baijie will not last much longer!”

The Evil Master’s laughter grew louder, “Li Baijie trapped me in this damned dungeon for over ten thousand years. At last, I will soon see the light of day once again!”

Li Cheng clicked his tongue in amazement; this was indeed major news!

Just then, the Third Protector suddenly turned his head towards the direction where Li Cheng was, “Interesting, a mere Heavenly Immortal, yet you managed to escape my perception!”
