After performing the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps consecutively, Duan Gujin stopped, then drank a drop of Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk to recover his Primordial Power.
Suddenly, his Divine Sense Inspection detected a seemingly faint presence behind him.
Although the presence was faint, based on his experience, Duan Gujin judged that the owner of this presence was a Martial Emperor Realm Martial Artist who had also grasped so Domain Power.
His eyebrows furrowed tightly, and he hurriedly concealed all his Life Aura, using the Netherworld Treasure Pearl to monitor every move of the Martial Artist behind him.
After a while, he ca to a conclusion about that Martial Artist.
"That is a very careful and cautious person!"
When the Martial Artist ca closer, Duan Gujin noticed that the Martial Artist's face was covered with a white cloth.
Seeing that the Martial Artist was covering his face with a white cloth at this mont, Duan Gujin's eyes flickered as he pondered who this Martial Artist could be.
"That Martial Artist emanates Blood Evil Qi, he must be from the Blood Killing Sect, but why would he cover his face with white cloth? Could it be that he fears being recognized by ?"
He analyzed carefully for a while and concluded that there was only one possibility.
The person currently behind him must be an elder from the Blood Killing Sect, who had followed him after sensing the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul he emitted.
This elder, like those four assassins, thought he was one of the Demon Cultivators.
To protect himself, the elder covered his face with a white cloth, not wanting to be recognized by him, a supposed mber of the Demon Path.
Once they clash, the elder could also swiftly escape without being tracked down by him later.
Duan Gujin did not know that the elder from the Blood Killing Sect who was currently looking for him was actually Wu Wencai.
He had just climbed the mountain to return to the Blood Killing Sect when suddenly, he sensed a strong spatial disturbance and spatial fluctuation nearby in the Void.
He extended his Divine Sense to find out what was happening with the spatial disturbance and fluctuations.
Within less than ten breaths, he sensed an extrely terrifying presence ahead.
"There's a presence of the Devil Clan ahead!"
His eyebrows slightly furrowed, and after hesitating for a mont, he decided to follow and find out what was happening.
But monts later, he saw a figure emitting a strange Martial Soul appearing ahead.
"That person ahead is not from the Devil Clan, but one of the Demon Cultivators!"
He observed carefully for a while and reached this conclusion.
Thinking that the person appearing ahead was one of the Demon Cultivators, his expression drastically changed, and then he decided to cover his face with a white cloth.
If he indeed clashed with that Demon Cultivator ahead, covering his face would prevent him from being recognized.
He knew in his heart that Demon Cultivators were much more vicious than ordinary mbers of the Devil Clan. Ordinarily, if you don't provoke the Devil Clan, they would not attack actively.
But more terrifying than the Devil Clan are the Demon Cultivators, who often use all kinds of ans to deal with their perceived enemies for victory.
Wu Wencai had so dread towards the Demon Cultivators; he had to be cautious and careful.
Duan Gujin was busy recovering his Primordial Power. Once his Primordial Power was restored, he would rapidly perform the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps and swiftly leave this place.
"The Demon Cultivator just disappeared here all of a sudden, I think the Demon Cultivator must be lurking nearby!"
Wu Wencai was aware that his situation was extrely dangerous; he had no clue about the true strength of the Demon Cultivator, nor why the Demon Cultivator used a Space Escape Technique at the foot of the Blood Killing Sect's mountain.
He searched the vicinity for a while, when suddenly a conversation with Duan Gujin earlier crossed his mind.
"It seems that Duan Gujin did not deceive , indeed there are Demon Cultivators active around the Blood Killing Sect!"
Suddenly he rembered his son, and then he understood.
"So my son was likely killed by a Demon Cultivator!"
Thinking of his son, he took a deep breath and suddenly stimulated all the Primordial Power in his body, releasing his Eighth Level Martial Emperor realm power, with nurous Heavenly Dragon Martial Souls floating above his head.
Not far away, Duan Gujin slightly furrowed his brows, guessing what Wu Wencai might be up to.
"Did he notice ? But that's unlikely! I have already concealed all traces of my life aura; he shouldn't be able to detect my presence."
He thought to himself.
"Could the person who utilized the Space Escape Technique earlier co out and speak?"
Monts later, Wu Wencai suddenly called out loudly.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him, and he rembered sothing.
"When I was tracking Duan Gujin, I experienced his Space Escape Technique! That's right, Duan Gujin could also perform similar Space Escape Techniques! Could it be that Duan Gujin and that Demon Cultivator are in cahoots?"
After this thought crossed his mind, he suddenly realized that he should not have completely trusted what Duan Gujin said.
"Now I finally understand why there are Demon Cultivators here, that Demon Cultivator is in league with Duan Gujin, or perhaps Duan Gujin infiltrated the Blood Killing Sect to locate the burial sites of the past Sect Masters and unearth the treasures buried alongside them. If those Demon Cultivators really find the burial sites of the past Sect Masters, they'll make a fortune! Moreover, there used to be a Heavenly Master Xun Yuan here in the Blood Killing Sect, they might also be after the treasures left behind by him! Yes! That must be it!"
Thinking this, Wu Wencai felt proud of his own analytical ability, convinced that this was the truth.
His mind whirred, feeling that his suspicion could be substantiated in many ways.
On one hand, why was Duan Gujin, who is not the second generation here, much stronger than a regular Inner Sect Disciple of the Blood Killing Sect? It's because he has a rich Tomb Robber behind him, the Demon Cultivator.
On the other hand, why could Duan Gujin easily pass the Sixth-level Alchemist test of the Liuyun Immortal Sect? There's only one reason: with the help of the Demon Cultivator, Duan Gujin could learn many previously lost Alchemy Techniques.
Imagine if a Martial Artist has a strong backer, providing all the resources and Cultivation thods needed; naturally, the Martial Artist's strength would increase rapidly.
And why his son was brutally killed by that Tomb Robber, it's highly likely, as Duan Gujin previously ntioned, his son inadvertently saw the Tomb Robber robbing graves in the middle of the night, and to cover up his cri, the Tomb Robber killed his son.
"Yes! That must be it!"
Nearby, Duan Gujin's brows were tightly knit. From the Elder's voice, he recognized that this Elder must be Wu Wencai.
His mind raced; he really couldn't understand what Wu Wencai ant earlier.
"Unexpectedly, I ran into Wu Wencai so soon! Really unlucky!"
