Chapter 726: Chapter 390: Truth and Struggle! Chapter 726: Chapter 390: Truth and Struggle! Scripture Pavilion.
Shen Ye stood before a wall, his eyes slightly closed.
It seed as though he was using his divine senses to inspect the various jade slips on the wall.
—Each jade slip had its own ban, and before they were borrowed, cultivators could only see an extrely limited part of their content.
Thus, most cultivators would choose a wall, release their divine senses, and slowly examine the summaries within each jade slip.
Among the crowd,
Shen Ye stood with his head lowered, inconspicuous.
Elsewhere,
Council Hall.
...
The Formless Heavenly Demon stood behind a pillar, silently listening to the dialogue between the Sect Master Saint and the various Supre Elders.
The matter concerning Nangong Wantu had been settled.
The Sect Master Saint imdiately moved to another topic,
“What progress is there at the front line?”
“It’s problematic, that Death Planet is a dual world; the people of their inner world have sensed the changes in the outer world and begun helping the outsiders fight against us,” said a Supre Elder.
“Weren’t many people looking for the Heavenly Technique in the inner world before?” the Sect Master Saint asked.
“Now there are far fewer — rumors say Yun Ni died there, and many don’t have the courage anymore,” the Supre Elder said.
A silence fell over the great hall.
While the Saintly Honor pondered, the elders tactfully remained silent.
After a good while,
the voice of the Saintly Honor finally resounded again:
“This is troubleso, my true body is still battling for the ownership of the Black King, and I cannot intervene personally.”
“The ownership of the Black King is more important, Saintly Honor, it doesn’t matter much if you don’t go to the battlefield,” a Supre Elder said.
The Saintly Honor said, “But the matter regarding Yun Ni absolutely cannot be overlooked — even if she truly has died, we must find her personal storage bag!”
The elders exchanged glances.
“Saintly Honor, what exactly are you looking for?”
A Supre Elder tentatively said, “If we have a specific target — even if it’s just the na or appearance, our search would be much more efficient.”
“Of course,” another elder chid in imdiately, “if you think it’s a secret that shouldn’t be shared, we won’t inquire further.”
The Saintly Honor slightly hesitated, then pinched a Spell Seal with his hand.
Streams of light radiated from his hand, forming a continuously shifting barrier that enveloped the entire great hall.
“At this point, there’s no use in hiding it anymore; better to let you all be aware of this matter.”
“—This is better than searching for a needle in a haystack.”
The Saintly Honor stood up from the high throne, hands behind his back, and slowly descended the steps.
He spoke with a reminiscent expression:
“You all think Yun Ni was one of us, right?”
“Of course! Saintly Honor, she is undeniably a unique celestial breed; it was validated before,” a Supre Elder stated.
Perhaps because the entire hall was shielded by the Saintly Honor’s barrier, the behavior and gestures of the elders began to change.
Suddenly,
one elder sprouted two fleshy columns from his back, with vertical pupils opening on top.
Another elder’s skin turned into ink-green scale armor, with tenuous wisps of green vapor erging and forming an insect-like figure mid-air.
The Sect Master’s physique beca enormous, his mouth bristling with sharp fangs, his hands splitting into many long appendages.
“No, I discovered her secret, she is not a unique celestial breed.”
The Sect Master’s tone beca increasingly strange:
“Unique celestial breeds feed on planets about to be destroyed, possessing explosive strength capable of shattering heavens and obliterating earth, so we easily believed her considering the destructive nature of her strength.”
“I even held her in high esteem, allowing her to study Penglai’s Supre Forgetting Love Feathering Ascension Scripture.”
The elders erupted in fury upon hearing this truth.
“Is she not?”
“So she impersonated the powerful unique celestial breed — damn it!”
“But how could she have achieved this? Who exactly is she?”
The voice of the Saintly Honor thundered through the hall, overpowering the voices of the elders:
“I know it’s strange.”
“After all, how could an ordinary creature fool our eyes?”
“Besides, the power of a unique celestial breed cannot be faked; nobody can falsify the nature of that power.”
“—Unless she truly could control the power of a unique celestial breed and not be destroyed by that power.”
The Saintly Honor’s tone beca chilling and somber:
“There is only one truth—”
“She must be a higher-level Cosmic Demon Master than a unique celestial breed.”
This statent stunned the elders.
Silence filled the great hall.
For a while,
one elder finally spoke in astonishnt:
“Such a demon master died in the Indefinite Layer? What kind of power could possibly kill her?”
The Saintly Honor appeared sowhat perplexed, and said:
“Such a high-level demon should have countless ways to escape; normally, she definitely wouldn’t die.”
The elders began to reminisce.
Shen Ye also fell into mories.
Indeed.
Yun Ni had countless thods.
But she had one fatal flaw.
—She liked to gamble.
Was gambling ever a good thing?
It led to complete ruin!
Another Supre Elder suddenly spoke:
“She was so powerful, yet she always avoided you before she disappeared, Saintly Honor.”
“Hmph, I can awaken those demon masters sleeping in the Demon Abyss at any ti; she stole sothing and felt guilty upon seeing , of course she’d want to run away quickly.”
The Saintly Honor continued:
“In fact, after leaving a Heart Demon to impersonate her true self, her true self disappeared.”
“What exactly did she steal?” an elder asked.
The Saintly Honor waved his hand.
The void opened.
An ancient and ti-worn Alchemy Furnace suspended mid-air then rapidly fell, standing tall in a corner of the great hall.
