This situation made Fang Ze develop a trace of concern for this mission.
Honestly, after feeling sothing was wrong with the Lu Huo, Fang Ze’s first guess was that the Jueyan Divine Fire had been transferred, and the divine fire left in place was rely a bait, waiting to hook this big fish.
But he almost imdiately dismissed this conclusion because he had learned about the mutual interaction patterns among Outer Realm demigods and the status of forging-type demigods like Lu Huo from the Flower God earlier.
In general, a demigod like the Lu Huo demigod, who has the ability to craft Extraordinary Artifacts, holds a very high position throughout Heaven Beyond the Heavens.
And also, because it was ntioned many tis before that the relationship between Venerables and demigods is relatively independent without any subordination, a Venerable can’t make the Lu Huo demigod hand over the Jueyan Divine Fire.
As for whether it’s possible a Venerable spent a great price to buy or borrow the Jueyan Divine Fire from the Lu Huo demigod to limit Fang Ze, Fang Ze thinks it is equally unlikely.
He had learned from Teng earlier about the power and preciousness of this divine fire, and also about its importance for the Lu Huo demigod’s forging.
Let’s not even ntion whether those Venerables, who recently suffered heavy losses, are willing to pay such a high price. Even if they are willing, the Lu Huo demigod may not sell or lend it.
After all, this is her livelihood. Selling it would an she becos an ordinary demigod afterward, and lending it... who knows when that will be returned, or it might cause more trouble.
Therefore, Fang Ze thinks that even if there is so sort of trick involved, it is most likely a kind of agreent reached between both parties. For example... allowing the Venerables to monitor the area around the Jueyan Divine Fire when there are suspects while the Lu Huo demigod is responsible for the suspects taking action.
Thinking this way, Fang Ze had a general idea in his heart.
He believed that if it were just like this, then after several days of experints, he could complete the unsealing task without exposing himself.
Of course... even if exposure was a possibility, now that the Jueyan Divine Fire was right in front of him, Fang Ze would never consider backing off.
Therefore, before coming, he also emptied the quotas of two Demigd Prisons, preparing for a perfect escape with the Flower God and Teng if things went wrong.
With these thoughts in mind, while the three began chatting about Artifact needs, Fang Ze discreetly summoned a Divine Fiend from Absolute Pinnacle to test the waters.
And to unseal this Absolute Pinnacle Divine Fiend as soon as possible, the place where Fang Ze summoned it was very close to the Jueyan Divine Fire.
And when it appeared, just upon contacting the Jueyan Divine Fire for a mont, all the ice on its body began to quickly lt, like snow eting the sun.
Imdiately afterward, before it lted completely, Fang Ze re-engaged it back into a Demigd Prison.
The entire process of releasing and collecting it took less than a second. It ended in about the sa ti it takes for an ordinary person to blink.
In such a short period, and with various preparations made by Fang Ze beforehand, none of the three demigods present noticed a thing.
anwhile, the vassals outside the door monitoring all this were staring intently at the monitor screen with two Artifacts in their hands, observing the screen’s footage and the operation status of the Artifacts.
"Report."
"No anomalies detected in the tech surveillance."
"No anomalies detected in the Power of Laws."
"No anomalies detected in space fluctuations."
"No anomalies detected in the Divine Thought sensor."
In this world, there’s a universally acknowledged rule: all extraordinary items leave traces when used, and to conceal traces, other thods must be employed. So, as long as the detection thods are comprehensive, anomalies can definitely be found.
However... with the recently acquired [Presence-Concealing Sticker] in addition to the Demigd Prisons, this convention was directly shattered.
The Presence-Concealing Sticker inherently allows people to disregard all traces of the existence of the being, and when Fang Ze rapidly releases and summons the Absolute Pinnacle Divine Fiend through the Demigd Prison, these traces get compressed to the extre.
The traces that are so subtle that at a glance appear like normal fluctuations, might not be noticed without serious analysis, let alone if the superpowerful, zero-presence effects of the Presence-Concealing Sticker are applied.
Therefore, when Fang Ze repeatedly summoned the sa Absolute Pinnacle Divine Fiend three tis, all up until the Divine Fiend was unsealed, none of the three demigods present nor anyone outside monitoring the room realized a Divine Fiend had ever appeared.
After confirming that his plan was feasible, Fang Ze proceeded to summon and unseal the other six Divine Fiends following the sa thod.
Thus, very quickly, all seven Absolute Pinnacle Divine Fiends were completely unsealed, roaring within the Demigd Prisons.
This also signified that the combat power in Fang Ze’s possession finally reached its peak. The most crucial step of his plan to capture Venerable Yuan Gu had also been achieved! Just after this situation concludes, he can return to the Real World to begin his major counterattack!
With this thought, a relaxed Fang Ze did not leave early but continued sitting on the Flower God’s shoulder, patiently listening to Lu Huo’s investigation.
anwhile, while Fang Ze had completed tonight’s task, Teng seated beside him was secretly keeping an eye on him the whole ti.
Teng was very curious about Fang Ze. After all, during the days of "detaining" the Flower God, she had often heard of Fang Ze’s marvels from the Flower God. So, she was truly very curious about how Fang Ze would pass this hurdle.
She felt that if it were rely an ability to transfer the Absolute Pinnacle Divine Fiend, it wouldn’t be enough. Moreover, because a demigod’s Divine Thought spread throughout the room, even stacked stealth capabilities were unlikely to work effectively.
Unless Fang Ze possessed so ability that would be directly ignored, even if sensed by a Divine Thought.
But thinking about this, Teng couldn’t help but find it amusing: how could such an ability exist in this world? A demigod’s Divine Thought is ant to perceive everything; how could it possibly ignore sothing after sensing it?
Moreover, even if there really were such Artifact and ability, just using them would cause Law Fluctuations, which would still be unable to escape from detection and sensing.
So, on the re thought of it, Teng felt this was an impossible task.
This also led to her not being surprised when she found Fang Ze hadn’t taken any action all along. After all, it was indeed difficult.
Just like that, this visit soon concluded amidst chatting and material selection.
After finalizing the desired effects of the Extraordinary Artifacts, Teng also took the initiative to bid farewell to Lu Huo.
Lu Huo seeing them off at her doorstep, calculated the ti, and then said to Teng, "According to Duoduo’s requests, and considering my current schedule, the production cycle for these two Extraordinary Artifacts is about a year. Once they are ready, I will contact you in advance to inspect and collect them."
Hearing Lu Huo’s words, Teng slightly nodded and then said, "Alright. I’ll be waiting for your good news."
After she finished, she exchanged a few more pleasantries with Lu Huo, then prepared to take the Flower God to leave.
However, just as she and the Flower God turned around, suddenly, a few figures appeared out of thin air beside them.
Upon seeing those figures, Teng reflexively protected the Flower God behind her, looking at them vigilantly.
Those Black Shadows were evidently not surprised by Teng’s reaction. The leader among them stepped forward actively, saluted Teng and the Flower God briefly, and then said, "You two Venerables, we are vassals of Blue Blood Venerable. We’ve been tasked to investigate the recent chaos in Heaven Beyond the Heavens, and the conspiracy to incite a battle among the Venerables."
"May I know if you two have ti to accompany us for a while?"
Upon hearing what the leading figure said, Teng almost reflexively looked at Fang Ze. Luckily, logic prevailed in her heart, so she suppressed this notion.
Nonetheless, despite this, she was filled with shock and doubts: Didn’t Fang Ze do anything just now? How did they still co seeking him?
Could it be... Fang Ze has actually completed his mission during this visit, but... I just didn’t notice?
