Chapter 69: The Extraterrestrial Devils

"The Heavenly Emperor's talent is simply astonishing from human standards, ah."

Although everyone had already seen the Heavenly Emperor's so-called secret technique, when they saw it again, they couldn't help but sigh.

The Heavenly Emperor successfully practiced an Ancient secret technique in the blink of an eye.

This kind of talent, they couldn't help but envy.Findd new stories at novelhall.com

Everyone heaved a sigh and glanced curiously at the former Heavenly Emperor, thinking what secrets he would say.

Even Lin Feng paid close attention to this.

After all, he was the one who led everyone to invade the Nine Heavens Palace and kill the Heavenly Emperor. So, he regarded the Nine Heavens Palace as his territory, and naturally, he wanted to have control over the secrets within the Heavenly Palace in the future.@advancechaptersareavailable

(Within the screen in the sky)

The former Heavenly Emperor stood in front of the five sculptures and slowly spoke as his face gradually turned solemn, "Lin Yan, it was the five Ancient Goddesses who created the Heavenly Palace to hunt the Extraterrestrial Devils...."

"These Extraterrestrial Devils, not only invisible and shapeless but also can erode the human's heart with greed. Only the cultivator who has been blessed by the Goddesses, or practiced the Devil-Tracking technique, can find their whereabouts...."

"Once a being possessed by these Extraterrestrial Devils, sooner or later they will all lose their sanity and become a monster...."

"Since the Heavenly Palace inception, I have been secretly forming demon hunting squads to hunt these Extraterrestrial Devils...."

"Also, the names inscribed around are all the names of the devil hunting squad's members who died at the hands of the Extraterrestrial Devils..."

...

...The Extraterrestrial Devils?

Was that all? Was that the so-called Heavenly Palace's secret?

Gradually, the cultivators in the Lingxuan continent discerned what was being played on the screen over their heads.

Listening to the former Heavenly Emperor's words at this moment, everyone in the Lingxuan continent couldn't help but shake their heads at once and grimace as they all long ago knew about the existence of the Extraterrestrial Devils.

As the former Heavenly Emperor spoke, his complexion turned grim, "...It led to the downfall of the entire Lingxuan continent. Countless cultivators cooperated with the Extraterrestrial Devils. At that time, it triggered a wave of Extraterrestrial Devils, almost destroying the entire Lingxuan continent. Since then, the Heavenly Palace has firmly blocked the news, only to constantly send their demon hunting squads to hunt those Extraterrestrial Devils."

Lin Yan's eyebrows furrowed.

The Extraterrestrial Devils were so terrifying, so why did the cultivators taken the initiative to cooperate with the Extraterrestrial Devil?

However, the suspicion on Lin Yan's face only surfaced for a moment as he immediately figured out the problem.

There were countless cultivators in the Lingxuan Continent, but most were bottom-ranking cultivators with low talent.

These weak cultivators all shared a dream to become strong. But unless they encountered a fortuitous encounter, they would never be able to become a high-ranking cultivator in their lifetime.

It wasn't difficult to understand that they actively chose to cooperate with the Extraterrestrial Devils to overcome their barrier.

Also, many high-ranking cultivators were stuck at the barrier and no longer made the slightest progress for many years, so it was very likely that they too cooperated with these Extraterrestrial Devils in exchange for power.

...

Looking at Lin Yan's pensive expression, the former Heavenly Emperor reached out his hand, patted his shoulder, and said, "Lin Yan, what I proposed just now, consider it. These Extraterrestrial Devils are extremely dangerous to the Lingxuan Continent. Hunting them down also saves all the living beings on the Lingxuan Continent...."

Lin Yan interrupted the former Heavenly Emperor, not waiting for him to finish, "Your Highness, I am just an ordinary cultivator; it's not my turn to worry about the living being of the entire Lingxuan Continent... However, I'm the Heavenly Palace's Heavenly General, so I naturally have to follow the orders of your Highness so that you can give me specific information about the demon hunting squad."

Initially, when the former Heavenly Emperor heard Lin Yan's words, he thought Lin Yan would reject his proposal, not daring to hunt those Extraterrestrial Devils.

This caused a little helplessness to rise in his heart. However, Lin Yan's words stunned him, and he soon burst into laughter, "Kid, you are cold but also warm-hearted."

Saying so, the former Heavenly Emperor handed Lin Yan the information.

Lin Yan took it and left the Heavenly Palace alone.

...

"If we didn't meet each other in the past, maybe this wouldn't have happened now."

Teng Gang's expression became more and more complicated as he watched Lin Yan leave the Heavenly Palace.

He knew very well that once Lin Yan was set on the mission, it was time for him to meet with them and become one of their sworn brothers.

Although in Teng Gang's heart, he had long hated the Heavenly Emperor, Lin Yan. But watching the past appear in front of his eyes at this moment, he signed, feeling downhearted.
