Who let him join the Sword Sect?!-Chapter 466 - 294: Heavenly Destiny People, Time to Eat Little Orange Ji (Happy New Year)

Chapter 466: Chapter 294: Heavenly Destiny People, Time to Eat Little Orange Ji (Happy New Year)

"Who died? Explain more clearly. Who taught you to speak half sentences like this?" Old Sect Leader Li frowned and said.

"It’s... Wait a minute." But Mingzhi stopped halfway and glanced at the small walnut in his hand.

"What’s the matter, Master... Hmm... Okay, I got it."

After taking another call, Mingzhi explained the matter clearly to everyone.

"There were some accidents, Xiao Yilong ran away, and all the remaining Hundred Demons Sect elders to the east and north died," Monk Mingzhi said.

"Did any of our people get hurt?" Jing Chun asked.

"No, when my master and they arrived, those people were already dead."

After speaking, Monk Mingzhi’s eyes turned golden. He drew a circle with one hand and shared his master Monk Konghai’s vision with everyone.

The signal in that place wasn’t very good. Chatting was fine, but imagery couldn’t be transmitted through the small walnut.

Once the circle stabilized, Chen Qianhu’s big face appeared in front of everyone.

But before Chen Qianhu could speak, Old Monk Konghai said, "You don’t need to be so close to me, step back."

"Oh, sorry."

Chen Qianhu stepped back a few steps, then turned sideways to display Old Monk Konghai’s first-person perspective to everyone.

The two were standing in a strange large hall at this time.

The floor was paved with gold bricks, six giant cloud dragon pillars lined up on both sides, two green-black thrones placed at the end of the hall, guarded by groups of varied treasures and ferocious beasts.

Xiao Yilong and another Hundred Demons Sect elder’s corpses were sitting on those two thrones.

Their upper bodies were bare, their skin green-black and the same color as the thrones, as if they were bronze statues cast together. There was a thin golden line at the back of their necks.

Looking up along the golden line, the Dongqi-style architectural regulation abruptly disappeared, the top of the giant pillar and the hall ceiling was densely packed with sea beast skeletons, all carved with dark gold runes, with Yin Killing Qi from Extreme Abyss lingering.

Amidst the pile of bones were two divine souls being refined and suspended there.

"Master Konghai checked earlier, the divine soul on the right isn’t entirely Xiao Yilong; only half remains. He probably escaped using some substitution method," Chen Qianhu said, "It was like this when we arrived, but we’ll need the Taoist to look at those runes."

"They are connecting veins," said Old Sect Leader Li, who seemed familiar with some of the runes.

"Connecting veins?" Tang looked for a while and nodded, "No wonder that flag can so easily mobilize the Qi of the East Continent."

Tang held a compass, and a rough map of the East Continent appeared before him. He drew a crooked line between where Chen Qianhu and Monk Konghai were and Qinghe Association.

The earth veins of East Continent are long or short but mainly intermittent. To connect them, aside from moving mountains and filling seas, one could use the transplanting method.

Replace the small earth vein and its accompanying shadow vein and connect it with the main vein, theoretically achieving thousands of miles of extension.

Of course, it sounds easy, but it’s extremely difficult to execute.

Not only sacrifices of two Tribulation Crossings are required, but also Dongqi or other hidden legacies. Even Old Sect Leader Li doesn’t know to which they belong, like those sea beast bones full of runes.

As for how many foreshadowing preparations the Hundred Demons Sect laid in advance for this, it’s countless.

The perplexing behaviors of the Hundred Demons Sect over the years might all be for this purpose.

"I suppose other places are similar." Tang muttered for a moment, and then drew three more lines on the map. "Order all sect disciples to clear the identified Hundred Demons Sect strongholds, then check along this route again."

Jing Chun leaned forward and waved his hand, signaling his spouse to move aside and not block the view.

After watching for a while, she shook her head.

"I always feel something’s wrong. These troublemakers have always been slippery cowards, afraid of death in the past. How could they so readily give up their lives?"

"It wasn’t voluntary. They were deceived." Monk Konghai replied to Jing Chun.

As soon as Monk Konghai spoke, his first-person perspective changed to another form; everything he saw, except for Chen Qianhu leaning to one side, turned into a blur.

What replaced it was ’emotion.’

Through Monk Konghai’s first-person perspective, Tang and the others saw Xiao Yilong and the Hundred Demons Sect elder’s emotions before being sacrificed.

First was ecstatic joy, followed by shock and anger, but it only lasted for a brief moment before it was cut off.

"Monk, did you master Destiny Communication?" Tang asked.

"No, I can only see the deceased’s final moment," Monk Konghai replied.

After he finished speaking, Monk Konghai’s first-person perspective returned to normal.

After talking for a while, arrangements were made for the East Sea side. The old monk stayed to continue investigating the Dragon Palace, while Chen Qianhu went to find the Yilong with only half a remnant soul.

Due to the White Emperor’s Alliance in the north, the Demon Race assisted in finding the people and then retreated behind the Northern Territory Wall. The pursuit was in charge of three Sword Pavilion Masters and several Dragon Tiger Mountain Celestial Masters.

Chen Mumu, Pavilion Master of Sword Pavilion in Jing State, greeted her mother first, then explained the situation on her side, which was basically similar to the East Sea side.

Three Hundred Demons Sect elders died.

The south was managed by Beast Taming Sect and Celestial Sect, and the returned intelligence was also roughly the same. As for the latest news from the west...

"One escaped."

Medicine King Valley Master Qin Lang, with a sunshine-brown-skinned, boyish look, showed a pure and innocent smile at the small walnut.

Except for Chen Qianhu’s side, the signal of the small walnut was quite good everywhere else.
