Thinking this, Black Shadow felt more and more that the situation was bad.
For a mont, his eyebrows deeply furrowed.
The reason for his anxiety was nothing else but that the "Mountain Root" was completely fabricated by him to fra Qiu Tu.
Dongye State, such a remote area, how could it possibly contain such a treasured rarity.
His purpose in deliberately saying that Dongye State had a Mountain Root was fundantally twofold.
First, the Mountain Root was precious enough and had broad utility. Regardless of their strength, any Cataclysmic would be motivated to seize it.
Enough to stir up the entire Dongye State and even the waters of the Eighth Sanctuary.
In this way, he could not only drive a wedge between the upper echelons of Dongye State and prevent them from forming a united front to invade the Disaster Zone.
But he could also..... fish in troubled waters, giving him ample ti to acquire that treasure.
Secondly.... he had also noticed sothing unusual about Shen Lingshuang near Qiu Tu. He realized she was just a soul fragnt.
Although he couldn't figure out how Shen Lingshuang turned from a soul fragnt into a person, this did not change the fact that she was still just a soul fragnt.
Thus, Shen Lingshuang must have various issues related to soul fragnts.
Such as incoherent mories, disorientation, and so forth.
And this..... was similar to the external manifestations of the "Mountain Root".
Therefore, if one intentionally investigated, it would be easy to trace it back to Qiu Tu and Shen Lingshuang.
In this way, Muye achieved his goal — he not only successfully restrained Qiu Tu, a formidable enemy, but also diverted the attention of Dongye State and the Sanctuary.
Originally, Muye's plan was sound and executed smoothly.
Especially after he projected an attack on Eastern City, helping the higher-ups of Dongye State further narrow down the target range, and enabling his newly acquired believers to secretly guide the situation, the entire plan beca even smoother.
However, who could have expected.... Zhao Ji suddenly erged halfway?
Although Muye believed, being a Peak Fifth Rank Great Evil God, he was not weaker than Zhao Ji.
But.... he was originally more skilled in scheming and intrigue, rather than real combat.
If he were to confront an equal master head-on, it could possibly end with both sides suffering, to the benefit of the Sanctuary.
'It seems.... I need to think of a plan.....'
....
anwhile, Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji were on their way to find Muye.
Even though Qiu Tu knew Zhao Ji was strong, the extent to which she could freely control his body still shocked him.
So, while flying, he also tentatively asked, "Your Highness, is controlling a part of your Cataclysmic ability?"
Flying beside Qiu Tu, Zhao Ji responded indifferently with a "Hmm".
Qiu Tu asked, "This Cataclysmic ability seems very powerful, what exactly does it do?"
Zhao Ji glanced at him and said coldly, "Cataclysmic ability is the foundation of everyone's life, prying into Cataclysmic ability is no different from provocation."
Qiu Tu:.....
His sister-in-law really is sowhat aloof.
However, given the circumstances where she held more power, Qiu Tu did not dare to continue asking. He rely suppressed his curiosity in his heart, planning to ask Larilo after returning.
Given the relationship between Larilo and him, as well as with Zhao Ji, if she knew, she would likely not hide it from him.
But.... if he can't ask about Cataclysmic abilities, what else could he ask about?
Muye was still an unknown distance away, and he couldn't just stay mute all the way, could he?
Thinking this, Qiu Tu's gaze swept over the desert rapidly passing behind him, and suddenly, inspiration struck, and he tried asking another question, "By the way, Your Highness Zhao Ji. Do you know how to advance to a Fifth-Order Cataclysmic? or, how to advance to a Fake Fifth-Order Cataclysmic?"
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji, who was flying, gave him a curious glance, then said, "Why do you ask this question? Don't you humans have your own thods?"
"Moreover..... don't just talk about Fake Fifth Order, thods for Fake Sixth Order are also available to you."
This ti it was Qiu Tu's turn to be shocked.
He looked at Zhao Ji in surprise, then asked, "Humans have thods to advance to a Fake Sixth Rank?"
He hesitated and asked, "Why do you know about this?"
Zhao Ji's expression beca even more bizarre, "Because the 'Boundless Heart Sea - Core Region' has your humans."
Qiu Tu:?!!
At that mont, Qiu Tu was unsure whether to be surprised or stunned.
In his impression, wasn't humanity's highest strength only at Peak Fourth Rank?
When did they have Fifth Rank, even Sixth Rank?
And..... humans had actually set foot in the 'Boundless Heart Sea - Core Region'?
Why had he never heard of this before? What exactly went wrong?
...
anwhile, in the Eighth Sanctuary, within an ancient and elegant garden villa,
Huang Shangzong was accompanying an elderly man in a lively conversation.
The old man looked to be in his seventies or eighties, dressed in traditional Han attire, appearing kindly and wise, giving off an amiable and invigorating aura simply by sitting there.
But..... only those who knew him well understood that he was in fact a ruthless Yama.
Not only did he control powerful forces, but he had also fought in many battles, his hands stained with countless blood.
He was the leader of the Iron-Blood Faction, the de facto ruler of the Eighth Sanctuary, the Speaker of the Supre Council, a Fifth-Order Cataclysmic: Rao Shou.
After several hours of long travel, Huang Shangzong arrived at the Sanctuary exhausted.
He simply tidied up a bit and, according to the scheduled ti, went to Rao Shou's house.
By this ti, Rao Shou had finished eating and was sitting in the courtyard, fishing and cultivating his sentint.
