Chapter 221: Chapter 160: Sudden Change, Evil Energy Leaks Out

Cangyun Realm, Rift Valley Sea.Chu Zheng sat in the void, refining the Blood Fiend within him. Having slain so many of the Demon Race, the progress of his Slaughter Blood Descending Dragon Technique was astonishing; it had reached minor accomplishment in just a short time.

Now, relying solely on his physical body, ordinary cultivators in the initial stage of the Soul Condensing Realm were no match for him.

The physique of common Divine Infant Great Ability cultivators also couldn't compare to Chu Zheng now, who bore the power of the Spirit and Soul without the slightest bit of stress.

With the continuous supplementation of elixirs, the growth of Chu Zheng's Spirit and Soul was advancing by leaps and bounds.

Some time ago, his Immortal Path Cultivation had progressed further, stepping into the late stages of the Soul Condensing Realm. His Qi Refining's Cultivation had also increased considerably, just one step away from the later stages of the Dao Embryo Realm.

At this rate, it would only take a few months at most before he could try to condense a Divine Infant and, after strengthening his Dao Embryo, attempt to reach the Golden Core Realm.

For a Qi Cultivator, forming a Life-bound Golden Core is undoubtedly a qualitative transformation. By inscribing Divine Skills atop the Golden Core, one can possess the power to move mountains and fill seas.

However, in such a short period, killing too many had not been without impact on Chu Zheng. Ominous energy surged around him, and he struggled to control his emotional fluctuations.

Below him, the ocean once dyed red with blood was now barely traceable, as huge shadows were faintly visible, patrolling among the waves.

This place had seen Fifth Order and even Sixth Order Sea Demons appear, all attracted by the abundant Blood Qi, devouring all the debris that had fallen into the sea.

This is the distinction between land and the boundless ocean; on land, traces of this battlefield would remain for hundreds of years.

No sea demon dared to act rashly against Chu Zheng, for the Lihuo Spear by his side possessed a strong deterrent power against them.

"Zhao Tingxian has neglected his duty in managing the Heavenly Dao, concealed the report of the Evil Demon Realm incursion due to his own personal desires, and shall be executed for his crime. Proceed to the Immortal Alliance to accept punishment. Those who accompanied him will be dealt with in the same manner."

A divine announcement suddenly rang out, spreading across the entire Cangyun Realm, jolting Chu Zheng from his secluded meditation. He looked around in shock, with numerous doubts surfacing in his mind.

From whence this voice originated, Chu Zheng did not know, but he surmised it must be someone from the Immortal Alliance.

The most crucial was the mention of Zhao Tingxian.

He had harbored suspicions about Zhao Tingxian before, but could not confirm them.

He just couldn't comprehend what Zhao Tingxian stood to gain by hiding the news of the Evil Demon Realm and allowing the spatial channel to open.

Now with certain evidence at hand, Chu Zheng put himself in the position of Zhao Tingxian, and after much consideration, he could only come to two conclusions.

One possibility was that Zhao Tingxian desired something from the Evil Demon, or rather, he sought to use them to achieve certain goals.

Based on this, Chu Zheng speculated that the Myriad Realms' invasion was likely not anticipated by Zhao Tingxian, or perhaps it disrupted some of his plans.

The voice mentioned the Evil Demon Realm instead of the Myriad Realms.

Hiding the news of the Evil Demon Realm would undoubtedly be a far greater sin than concealing the invasion from the Myriad Realms.

Moreover, since the Demon Race had received news and started preparations half a year ago, it was evident that Zhao Tingxian must have had plans for the spatial channel above Giant Marsh.

Before Chu Zheng entered the Cangyun Secret Realm, there had been no whispers about the Myriad Realms invasion through this spatial channel.

Chu Zheng's second guess was somewhat terrifying; he thought of Zhao Tingxian's path of cultivation. seaʀᴄh thё Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

In his previous meditations, he had made many speculations about the path Zhao Tingxian followed in his cultivation.

Born with a Fire Spirit Body, and later by serendipity becoming part of the Tai Xu Holy Land, Chu Zheng previously surmised that Zhao Tingxian might have comprehended the mysteries of Yin and Yang by practicing the combination of fire and water, which led to his current cultivation status.

Chu Zheng's path, the way he cultivated Immortal Law, had many similarities to that of Zhao Tingxian.

The Yin Yang Spirit within his Niwan Palace was the result of his trials based on the relationship between the Evil Demon Realm and the current universe, founded on the Way of Yin and Yang.

Considering Zhao Tingxian's current level of cultivation, he must have a profound understanding of the Way of Yin and Yang.

Perhaps Zhao Tingxian discovered some immense secret on the Evil Demon's body, related to his own path of cultivation, which led to his current arrangements.

After pondering for a long time, Chu Zheng gathered his thoughts, stood up, and prepared to head towards the spatial channel between the northern and southern regions to see the situation.

Since the Immortal Alliance had sent reinforcements, he anticipated that the situation would likely turn for the better, and he might receive some good news.

As for Zhao Tingxian, now that the Immortal Alliance had spoken, no matter what plans he had before, he would likely not escape death. There was no need to think too much about it for now.

Before Chu Zheng could start on his way, a streak of Spiritual Light came from the sky and landed beside him.

A Jade Umbrella slowly unfolded, casting down strands of Spiritual Light.

"The Flowing Cloud Umbrella?!"

Seeing the unexpected return of the Flowing Cloud Umbrella, Chu Zheng was momentarily surprised. His first reaction was that reinforcements from the Immortal Alliance had arrived and the battle in the outer realm had ended.

The Flowing Cloud Umbrella conveyed a message, sharing with Chu Zheng every scene it had witnessed in the battle of the outer realm.

After entering the spatial channel, it had no knowledge of the subsequent events and was unclear about the current state of affairs.

Chu Zheng's brow furrowed with concern as he flipped his palm, a Dragon of Divine Fire emerging into view.

This Divine Fire could reveal whether Geng Yiyang was alive or dead; since the fire still burned, Geng Yiyang must still be alive... Continue reading at M-V-L
