Chapter 171: Chapter 159: Su Nan Shocked! Demon and Buddha's Plot! Dragon Bone Mountain Range!
"Chang Qing's cultivation... went wrong?"
Su Nan's eye twitched hard, showing a look of disbelief on his face.
Celestial Fury, such a thing, can also happen from a cultivation mishap?
Besides, Chang Qing is merely at the Divine Body state, how can a mishap be so severe to attract Celestial Fury?
And that kind of world-destroying Destruction Divine Thunder?
"I was about to turn to darkness, yet the Heavenly Dao ignored me, instead striking my son?"
Su Nan looked up at the sky, which had returned to its original state, and his mouth twitched.
The Divine Thunder came and then... left, without even glancing at him.
"Is my rank too low..."
Su Nan touched his nose, contemplating as he continued into the Forbidden Abyss.
He realized that anything related to Chang Qing seemed a bit unexpected.
"Could it be that Chang Qing has been to this Forbidden Abyss too, and it might have a problem as well?"
Thinking of this, Su Nan shook his head with amusement.
But then, in his eyes appeared an Array that concealed energy, preventing cultivators from entering.
Staring at the Array before him, Su Nan fell into silence once more.
No need to guess, this Array was definitely set by Su Wenlin and the others.
But he couldn't figure out what happened that they even hid it from him, the Patriarch.
Also, this Taixu has existed for countless years; what's the purpose of setting an Array in the depths of the Forbidden Abyss now?
"Could it be something I can't handle?"
Su Nan curled his lips, arrogantly muttering, "A bunch of old fools, how much do you look down on me..."
Thinking like this, Su Nan waved his wide sleeve, and an entrance to the Array unfolded before him.
Dense mist surged in, and a terrifying aura that made heaven and earth weep spread all around.
Su Nan froze, staring intently, and when he saw the grand tomb in the depths of the Forbidden Abyss, his scalp tingled immediately.
"Damn!"
Cold sweat poured down Su Nan's forehead, and without hesitation, he immediately patched up the gap in the Array.
"A bunch of bastards!"
"Such a big event happened in the Southern Domain, and you all dared to keep it from me?"
"Su Zian, just wait till I peel your skin!"
Su Nan stood before the Array, cursing aloud, with lingering fear on his face.
He couldn't handle it.
The things inside the Array, he truly couldn't handle.
The Great Emperor's Mausoleum!
He never dreamed that under his nose, the Southern Domain had an Emperor's Mausoleum appear?
Only now did he suddenly realize what Chang Qing's brow-marked Emperor Seal truly was.
That thing is not only a legacy but also the key to opening the Emperor's Mausoleum!
"Fatty Wu, do nothing now, immediately, right now, send over the most top-tier Concealment Array!"
Su Nan originally had other matters to handle, but now, he sat cross-legged in front of the Array and dared not move recklessly.
He understood very well that once the Emperor's Mausoleum is exposed, the entire continent would boil over.
Even if he wanted to go home and beat Su Zian, he had to arrange this place properly first.
After a while, Su Nan looked at the Array before him, showing a thoughtful look on his face,
"Before I leave, I could use this Emperor's Mausoleum to eliminate some..."
...
Deep beneath the ground, the Demon Sect's main hall.
The news about the Forbidden Abyss Imperial Mausoleum was still sealed, known to no one.
But the Destruction Divine Thunder that just dispersed excited the Demon Sect people for quite a while.
"That Divine Thunder did not fall." The Demon Lord sighed regretfully in the darkness.
The current Demon Sect urgently needed a dramatic change.
"Lord Demon, why did that Divine Thunder disperse?" the Demon Flame asked in confusion.
"The actions of the Heavenly Dao are beyond our understanding."
The Demon Lord shook his head, looking toward the quiet Ming Zi, and asked:
"There are seven days until the Celestial Demon Pool opens, you should depart."
"Are the preparations ready?"
Ming Zi nodded calmly, "The Earth Vein Imprint of the Elf World has been re-consolidated."
"Beneath the Celestial Demon Pool, everything is arranged."
"This time, I will take all the Divine Liquid from the Demon Pool and blame it on the Little Immortal Sect people, inciting war between the Demon Race and the Little Immortal Sect."
"And seize the opportunity to kill Su Changqing and reclaim the Earth Monument."
The Demon Lord pondered for a moment after hearing this, then softly spoke.
"Demon Shadow."
As the voice fell, from the shadowed center of the main hall, out of the light's reach, a figure gradually elongated, slowly emerged.
"This time you will go with Ming Zi, the Demon Domain has been uneasy recently, to prevent any accidents."
Demon Shadow said nothing, just nodded slightly, then his body moved lightly, merging into Ming Zi's shadow.
"It's just a simple mission, no need to send Demon Shadow." Ming Zi frowned slightly.
Demon Shadow, a Peak of Quasi-Emperor level expert.
In the Demon Sect's ranking, second only to the Demon Lord and Ming Zi.
"Don't be careless."
The Demon Lord's calm voice sounded, "The Celestial Demon Pool is located in the Dragon Bone Mountains of the Demon Realm, with many fierce beasts living there."
"Deep in those Dragon Bone Mountains, there are even ferocious beasts that can rival the Peak of Quasi-Emperor, if they go on a rampage, even the Domain Master must avoid them."
Ming Zi hesitated for a moment after hearing this, then nodded.
Rumor has it that the Dragon Bone Mountains are the resting place of an ancient divine dragon, shrouded by endless dragon miasma, attracting countless fierce beasts.
Fierce beasts are different from demons; they have no wisdom, no inspiration, only the savage instinct of beast nature.
And the opening of the Celestial Demon Pool coincides with the days those fierce beasts slumber.
But this time, the opening of the Celestial Demon Pool will clearly not be as peaceful as in past years, and having Demon Shadow's protection is indeed safer.
Without saying more, after a brief discussion, Ming Zi led a select group of Demon Sect disciples and left.
...
Western Regions, Lingshan Treasure Temple.
When there were only seven days left until the Celestial Demon Pool opened, Kashyapa suddenly halted his sutra chanting.
"Fa Ming, come see me."
As soon as the voice fell, a Buddha with a righteous face, haloed by Buddha's light at his back, strode forward.
The strong aura emanating from him clearly placed him among the Quasi-Emperor ranks.
"Lord Buddha."
Fa Ming placed his palms together on his chest, slightly bowing in salute.
Kashyapa did not say much, with a wave of his sleeve, took out a mysterious, intricately patterned Array Plate.
"In seven days, the Celestial Demon Pool will open, use this Concealment Array for protection, mix into the Dragon Bone Mountains."
"Find a chance to kill Su Changqing, and retrieve the Celestial Buddha's body."
Fa Ming stared at the Array Plate in surprise, hesitating.
The Demon Realm is not a good place, and the Dragon Bone Mountains are particularly sinister.
To make a move in that place, even with a Concealment Array Plate, he feared he couldn't escape.
"Rest assured, I will guide you out from outside the mountain range."
Seeing Fa Ming's hesitation, Kashyapa spoke, "The Dragon Bone Mountains are very special; if a Peak of Quasi-Emperor enters, it will instantly incite a beast riot."
"Even with a Concealment Array, it's tough to escape the beasts' instinctual perception."
"You find a good time to strike, and I will escort you away."
For the sake of a lasting solution, this time Kashyapa chose to personally intervene.
He did not hesitate to lend the Bodhi Zen Light Mirror, in exchange for two Concealment Arrays, to prepare for action in the Demon Realm!
Southern Domain is Su Nan's territory; any movement he makes will not escape the Su family's eyes.
But this time, Su Changqing is heading to the Demon Realm; it's a rare opportunity he cannot afford to miss.
This time, he and Fa Ming will enter from the Demon Race barrier of the Western Regions, completely bypassing the Su family's surveillance.
Then, Fa Ming will act openly, while he guides from the shadows; they will surely trick everyone!
Hearing Kashyapa's plan, Fa Ming pondered for a moment, and after finding no flaws, he softly laughed,
"Good!"
