2084 Sin City

Duan Ling Tian did not forget the purpose he had left the Fire Worship Sect. He left to devour other people's Innate Spiritual Roots so he could improve his Innate Spiritual Root and become strong in a short time. He could only save Ke'er and their daughter from the Fire Worship Sect if he became stronger.

Today, except for Dongfang Zhu, the Second Young Master of Dongfang Clan, he did not devour the Innate Spiritual Roots of Qiu Gang Yi, the Second Master of Qiu Clan, and Clan Leader Dongfang Qian of Dongfang Clan. Naturally, there was a reason for that.

When Duan Ling Tian was in the Qiu Clan's Main Hall, he had killed Qiu Gang Yi and Dong Fang Xian with a clean and precise attack that scared everyone. It made him look extremely strong. If he had devoured both their Innate Spiritual Roots like how he devoured Dongfang Zhu's Innate Spiritual Root at the restaurant today, it would undoubtedly affect the image he wanted to portray. He wanted to come off strong so the others would be afraid of him! Moreover, whether it was Qiu Gang Yi or Dongfang Qian, both their Innate Spiritual Roots would not improve his Innate Spiritual by much anyway. They probably possessed green Innate Spiritual Roots. In fact, Qiu Gang Yi might have had a yellow Innate Spiritual Root. It would not improve his dark blue Innate Spiritual Root even he had devoured their Innate Spiritual Roots. After some deep and careful deliberation, he decided not to devour their Innate Spiritual Roots.

Naturally, there were other factors as well. If there was nothing restraining Duan Ling Tian, he would certainly devour their Innate Spiritual Roots as well. After all, even the smallest mosquito had some meat!

"A place where the wicked gathers?" Qiu Mu Qing was stunned when she heard Duan Ling Tian's words. A hint of fear could be seen in her beautiful eyes as though she had just thought of something.

Duan Ling Tian who was looking at Qiu Mu Qing, naturally, saw the change in her expression. He could not help but ask in an urgent tone, "What? Do you know of a place like that?" After all, he was desperate to find a place where the wicked gathered so he could devour their Innate Spiritual Roots. As long as they were weaker than him, he would be able to devour their Innate Spiritual Roots! He would not blindly devour just anyone's Innate Spiritual Root. He had his principles after all.

"I'm not sure if that place can be considered as a place where the wicked gathers. However, from what I know, there are a lot of terrible people there. It's common for people there to kill and injure as soon as there's a disagreement!" Qiu Mu Qing said slowly. She sounded slightly frightened when she spoke about the place.

"It's common for them to kill and injure as soon as there's a disagreement?"

Upon hearing Qiu Mu Qing's words, Duan Ling Tian could not help but ask as he stared at Qiu Mu Qing intently, "What place is that?"

"That place is located in the central region. It's next to one of the three great sects, the Black Kshetra Sect. However, that place has nothing to do with the Black Kshetra Sect. In fact, if the disciples from Black Kshetra Sect goes to that place without an elder accompanying them, they might even be killed. Even the Black Kshetra Sect would have a hard time finding the culprit," Qiu Mu Qing said, growing more afraid.

"Black Kshetra Sect!" Duan Ling Tian's expression changed drastically when Qiu Mu Qing mentioned the Black Kshetra Sect, one of the three great sects in Dao Martial Saint Land.

Duan Ling Tian was agitated when he heard the sect's name because he still remembered the person who came to the Lower Province and broke into the Azure Cloud Mansion had killed Elder Ku and took the Devilseal Tablet away!

That person was none other than Black Kshetra Sect's Elder Xie Zong! He was also the only son of the Golden Lion King, one of the Four Great Dharmas in Black Kshetra Sect.

'Xie Zong!' The figure of a man dressed in light grey robes appeared in Duan Ling Tian's mind. It was a middle-aged man with crossed-eyes and a sullen expression on his face.

Up until now, Duan Ling Tian could still remember the day Xie Zong had come to the Azure Cloud Mansion and killed his father's right-hand man, Elder Ku, before snatching the Devilseal Tablet from him. Apart from that, a team of Black Armored Guards had died in Xie Zong's hands as well. There was deep enmity between them.

When Duan Ling Tian heard Black Kshetra Sect being mentioned, it was only natural that he became agitated.

"Brother Ling Tian, what's wrong?" Qiu Mu Qing could sense the change in Duan Ling Tian's mood.

Duan Ling Tian regained his senses and shook his head. He said, "It's nothing. Mu Qing, can you please describe the place you just mentioned in detail?"

Qiu Mu Qing nodded obediently and then slowly said, "Of course. The place I mentioned that's located in the central region is called Sin City!" The fear in Qiu Mu Qing's eyes intensified when she mentioned Sin City. Although she had not been to Sin City, the stories she had heard were enough to strike fear into her heart.

'Sin City?' Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes as a thought flashed in his mind. However, he did not interrupt Qiu Mu Qing as he waited for her to continue speaking.

"Sin City has been around since the beginning of the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. It has a long history. According to history, Sin City was founded by a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. That powerhouse was a sectless cultivator. For this reason, a majority of sectless cultivators in the Upper Province gravitate toward Sin City. Apart from that, I heard the sectlesss cultivators there are as strong as high-ranking officials in the three great sects. There are even people as strong as sect leaders from the three great sects. I think there's truth to that. Otherwise, how did Sin City remain untouched all these years even though it's located right next to the Black Kshetra Sect?" Qiu Mu Qing said in one breath. She paused and let Duan Ling Tian mulled over the words she had said.

'Sin City? A city founded by a sectless cultivator at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage? It's been around since the beginning of the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land? It's located next to the Black Kshetra Sect, but the sect has never tried to take over the city? If that's the case, it's very likely there are powerhouses whose strength is comparable to the sect leaders of the three great sects. Otherwise, the Black Kshetra Sect wouldn't have left them alone,' Duan Ling Tian thought about the things Qiu Mu Qing had said. After a while, he said, "Mu Qing, please continue speaking."

Qiu Mu Qing nodded and continued to say, "I'm sure Brother Ling Tian can guess there are many sectless cultivators there based on what I said. Since they are sectless, there are many kinds of people there. It's inevitable that problems would arise. For this reason, Sin City is very chaotic. People kill there every day. That's also why it's called Sin City. I also heard people who're not at the Saint Celestial Stage wouldn't go out at night unless they're accompanied by a Saint Celestial Stage powerhouse. That's how dangerous it is. This is all I know about Sin City," Qiu Mu Qing said. After a moment, she continued to say as she looked at Duan Ling Tian, "I don't know the reason why Brother Ling Tian wants to know about a place where the wicked gathers, but I feel Sin City fits the description. It's a place where many wicked men are gathered in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land! I heard there are cannibals there as well." Her face turned pale when she finished speaking

Cannibals! Sane people would not be able to accept this.

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian could not accept this as well. His expression darkened when he heard Qiu Mu Qing's words. He knew Sin City was the place he was looking for.

'It's decided! I'm going to Sin City!" Duan Ling Tian quickly decided to go to Sin City to devour Innate Spiritual Roots.

If Sin City was just as Qiu Mu Qing described, there would be many wicked men there.

Duan Ling Tian regained his senses after he took a deep breath. He looked at Qiu Mu Qing as he asked, "Mu Qing, have you been to Sin City?"

"No!" Qiu Mu Qing instantly shook her head when she heard Duan Ling Tian's question. She did not want to go to Sin City at all if possible!

"No? How come you know so much about Sin City?" Duan Ling Tian asked in surprise.
