"Ghost King Temple?"
Elder Seven once again visited Shi Xiaole’s residence.
He was specifically responsible for promotions and rewards within the Sect. Recently, Yun Tianya had agreed to let Shi Xiaole enter the Ghost King Temple, so naturally he was the one to notify him.
Upon hearing Elder Seven’s words, Shi Xiaole looked at him.
"It is also the Young Master’s wish!"
Elder Seven transmitted a ssage, "With Ge Qilong’s death, you can solidify your position. You must not disappoint the Young Master."
Was this all their plot?
Shi Xiaole was startled and quickly ran through it in his mind.
The retreat route of the Left Sect was obviously well planned in advance, and Elder Seven would have known about it. He could just send Ge Qilong or other Earth Immortals to search around, perhaps supplented by ans unknown to himself.....
Why, however, was it a peak Fourth Tier Earth Immortal?
Shi Xiaole was surprised, "So it was arranged by the Young Master. Why didn’t you tell earlier?"
"The Young Master was worried that Miss Yun would detect sothing and so he did not reveal the truth. In other words, if you were incompetent, you would really be taken down by Ge Qilong!"
Rather than catching Yun Chuoxi, they used her, striving to enhance their own status. This made Shi Xiaole realize that Yao Mie Sheng’s ambition was bigger than he thought.
Even this ti he was able to enter the Ghost King Temple was probably the result of his behind-the-scenes promotion.
Don’t they fear losing control of him?
"With the Young Master’s talent, one day he will reign over the Martial World. He is convinced that you will not betray him."
Seemingly discerning Shi Xiaole’s thoughts, Elder Seven said with a subdued smile.
A sure thing? Isn’t it a case of him being certain I wouldn’t dare?
Every exceptional mortal has great willpower, courage, and wisdom. Looking at Yao Mie Sheng’s actions, he cannot be underestimated.
"Please convey to the Young Master that Zong Yue will never betray him."
Elder Seven left with a smirk, neither expressing belief nor disbelief.
Maybe in his eyes, whether Shi Xiaole is loyal or not is not important. What matters is that as long as the Young Master is there, Shi Xiaole would never dare betray him.
"Yao Mie Sheng, the Saint you want to destroy, may have a great relationship with . Why not pass first."
His determined and unwavering expression faded, Shi Xiaole looked at the bright moon outside the window, his face was filled with a calm and austere killing intent never seen before.
...
The Ghost King Temple, although called a temple, is in fact a sealed secretive realm, said to have been brought back from an unknown place by the Zidu Ancestor. It is filled with evil thoughts, sinister thoughts, greedy thoughts, angry thoughts, and other negative emotions from the mortal world.
In the past, direct descendants who entered either almost went mad, or developed indelible inner demons, and so even died inside.
So, many years ago, the Left Sect stopped sending people into the Ghost King Temple.
This ti, when Aunt i proposed to let Shi Xiaole enter, so agreed, but more disagreed, among which Yun Chuoxi was the most vehently opposed.
"Ghost King Temple is fraught with danger, are you sure you want to go in? If it’s reluctant, I’ll explain it to grandpa."
The next day, Shi Xiaole followed Elder Seven to the back hill, but was stopped by Yun Chuoxi on the way, who spoke straightforwardly.
"Thank you for your concern, Miss. Zong Yue was not forced."
Upon hearing about the situation in the Ghost King Temple, Shi Xiaole almost imdiately thought of Demon Martial Way. Even without pressure from the two sects, he very much wanted to go in and take a look.
Under ordinary circumstances, if the Supre Martial Arts wanted to improve, the difficulty would be much larger than top Martial Arts, but the future potential would also be greater. Since there is a chance to improve now, how could he let it slip?
As for whether there will be danger, the Zidu Ancestor used to not oppose the younger generation entering, which proves that the Ghost King Temple is not a place of death. Generally, when you wander around the Martial World, you might still be killed by people, so what doesn’t involve danger?
"If that’s the case, take care of yourself."
Perhaps it was due to returning to the Left Sect, or maybe it’s because of the pressure from Yao Mie Sheng, Yun Chuoxi had once again beco her aloof self, stepping aside to let them pass.
It was only when Shi Xiaole’s figure was far away, a slight ripple erged in her calm eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination.
Upon arriving at a clay platform in the back hill, Elder Seven implicitly signaled, then left first. Not long after, two rays of light suddenly shone from a distance, converging in mid-air above the clay platform.
Pop. Pop. Pop.
A sound akin to bursting bubbles echoed, and within the void, a round black screen about a foot wide appeared.
"Go."
Soone commanded in a low voice. Imdiately, Shi Xiaole felt his body lift involuntarily, plunging into the black glow.
A mont later, the black light disappeared.
"Entering the Ghost King Temple, the duration can be as long as ten years or as short as three years. Even with our powers, we cannot interfere during this period. I wonder what will beco of this boy when he erges."
"Difficult, difficult, difficult."
Despite the unrelated conversation, the two elderly understood each other’s aning.
However, they didn’t realize that once Shi Xiaole had entered the Ghost King Temple, sothing completely unforeseen happened to him.
...
The Ghost King Temple stretched infinitely, the environnt was gloomy, and in the center, there was indeed a dilapidated temple. Negative energies emanated steadily from it.
All of a sudden, like a shark sensing blood, these negative feelings surged up, rushing towards Shi Xiaole, who had just arrived, and instantly engulfed him.
Endless resentnt, rage, and evil enwrapped Shi Xiaole. The violent impact swayed his stable spiritual sea.
This was Shi Xiaole. If it were any other Earth Immortal in the Divine Barrier Realm, even at its peak, they wouldn’t be able to escape unscathed.
Then, at this very mont, the humanoid shadow representing the Demon Martial Way above his spiritual sea, appeared to have been stimulated, and erupted into a greedy and frantic laughter.
Boom!
As if Ying and Yang were attracted to each other, countless negative energies surged towards the humanoid shadow, being absorbed by it. Like a balloon inflating, the humanoid shadow expanded at a visible speed, and its outline beca increasingly clear.
Under the absorption of the Demon Martial Way, the negative energy discharged from the ruined temple expanded from one foot to two, then three, four, five feet...
When it reached ten feet, the overflow of negative emotions montarily made even Shi Xiaole, with his impressive tolerance, almost lose control and turn into a maniac.
Seemingly sensing the danger to its master, the humanoid shadow shot out of his spiritual sea, transforming into a mass of light, astonishingly plunging into the ruined temple.
In an instant, all of the negative emotions receded, leaving the world clear and bright.
Bang!
The dazed Shi Xiaole was struck by a strange force, causing him dizzy and dizzy. When he regained his senses, he found himself in a small courtyard, surrounded by various towers of different heights and distances. He could vaguely see the city wall.
Was he expelled from the Ghost King Temple and landed in so city?!
With an indescribable excitent in his heart, Shi Xiaole could feel that, although he had left the Ghost King Temple, he still had a deep connection with the Demon Martial Way.
Through an imperceptible sense, the power of Demon Martial Way was advancing quickly, from the initial ten percent to the peak.
Ten percent at the initial stage.
Twenty percent at the middle stage.
...
When it reached the initial stage of thirty percent, all the negative energy in the ruined temple was absorbed, until a mont later, when a thread was regenerated, it was imdiately absorbed.
"That ruined temple, which can generate negative energies naturally, is the most suitable ground for the Demon Martial Way."
Shi Xiaole was both excited and horrified.
Excitent ca from the fact that he had found a shortcut to enhance the Demon Martial Way. Although at this mont, the speed of growth had slowed countless tis, he believed that the speed would stabilize at a certain level, but it was undoubtedly much faster than the outside world.
The horror ca from realizing that this incident showed him that the Supre Martial Arts were much more mysterious than the top martial arts, with aspects that even a martial artist could not control.
In the martial world’s history, there were so extraordinary geniuses who comprehended the Supre Martial Arts. However, many mysterious and bizarre incidents happened to them, which remain unsolved mysteries to this day.
"The Ghost King Temple possesses the isolating power of the Array System, it seems that only when the Demon Martial Way becos powerful enough, and my connection with it is strong enough, can I reclaim it."
After contemplating it for a mont, Shi Xiaole saw the light. After all, he had only temporarily lost the Demon Martial Way, and by the ti he repossess it, it would be many tis stronger.
The next ti the Ghost King Temple opens would be at least several years later, so in this duration, Zong Yue was destined not to appear in the martial world. It seed he needed to revert back to his original identity.
Taking advantage of the fact that the owner of the courtyard had not yet discovered him, Shi Xiaole quickly left the scene.
