Rebirth of the Supreme Celestial Being

Chapter 389 - Numerous Missions



Ch389 - Numerous Missions

Yan Tianhen suddenly realized, "This sentence is inscribed on the stele erected by the Ji family outside the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest."

"That's right." Ji Yunwei nodded, "It's just that the world always thinks this sentence means that my family regards the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest as their own territory and is determined to kill all trespassers. But in reality, even the di family still feels fear and trepidation in the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest for fear of disturbing some large demonic beasts' rest and losing their lives."

Leng Jixue sighed deeply, “I thought wrong."

Xiong Yun declared, "It's not Senior Martial Brother's fault, it's all the Sect Master's fault!"

"Ren Bulin?" Lin Xuanzhi's eyes narrowed slightly. In his heart, he had already hung Ren Bulin on a pillar and whipped his corpse countless times. Ever since he saw the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox, he was very anxious to turn Ren Bulin's bones into ash.

Lin Xuanzhi asked, "Why did Ren Bulin have you guys enter?"

Leng Jixue heard him directly refer to the Sect Master by name and knew that Lin Xuanzhi's impression of the Sect Master was very poor.

Now that the matter had come to this point, Leng Jixue also lost the idea of defending the Sect Master and looked at Lin Xuanzhi, "To tell you the truth, the Sect Master sent us here to find someone."

"Who?"

"My Sky Peak Sect's Young Sect Master, Ren Fuyao," Leng Jixue answered.

Ji Yunwei's expression became more speechless. He curled his lips and sneered, "Sky Peak Sect truly doesn't put my Ji family in its eyes. It turns out that they didn't merely send in one wave of people. They were even willing to throw the Young Sect Master over for him to gain experience. Only, when you guys secretly hide this from my Ji family, it makes it seem like my Ji family is narrow-minded and stingy in treating others."

Leng Jixue let him speak frigid ridicule and scorching satire and could only stay put.

Yuan Tianwen asked, "When did Ren Fuyao come here?"

Leng Jixue replied, "Two months ago."

"That early?" Qing Zhu looked at Leng Jixue sympathetically, “In the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest, if you can't leave in two months, then the possibility of being able to leave alive is even smaller. Maybe he has already become nourishment for spiritual plants."

Light worry appeared on Leng Jixue's expression. His soft and elegant face became colored with some concern. "Therefore, the Sect Master was impatient and wanted us to sneak in here."

"Besides that, he should have tasked you with handling other missions, right?" Lin Xuanzhi asked again.

Leng Jixue looked at Lin Xuanzhi with a wry smile, "Xuanzhi, if it weren't for the fact that I only had a few interactions with you, I would've thought that we had known each other for a long time. You can always see through my every move and leave me no room for any disguise."

Yan Tianhen's expression darkened, and he glared at Lin Xuanzhi.

Lin Xuanzhi also felt some pain. He didn't know what the matter was with Leng Jixue either; every word he spoke to Lin Xuanzhi always had to take on some vague and ambiguous meaning. However, the heavens could attest to the fact that it was really only because of his friendship with Leng Jixue in the last life, which gave him a good understanding of Leng Jixue's character. That was the only reason why he could see through whether Leng Jixue was telling the truth or lying at a glance!

Lin Xuanzhi prodded, "So, what are your other goals?"

Leng Jixue deliberated for a moment, then looked around the group. "The other goal is to find a magic treasure that gathers spiritual Qi in the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest. However, it's just that the exact location of this magic treasure is still uncertain, but it can be determined to be in the westernmost part of the demonic forest."

As soon as this remark was made, Lin Xuanzhi and the others fully understood that Ren Bulin's most important goal was probably to find the magic treasure for gathering spiritual Qi.

However, many people were puzzled - how could Ren Bulin know such a secret matter like the spiritual Qigathering magic treasure?

However, when Lin Xuanzhi thought about it carefully, he could also guess a few things.

In the past life, Ren Bulin already had ties with the Upper Realm. Since he knew the secret that Yan Tianhen had a furnace constitution, it likely wasn't difficult for him to know some other secret matters.

Only....

Exactly which person in the Upper Realm told Ren Bulin that the Great Demon-Sealing Array had something to do with the Nine Lands?

Lin Xuanzhi couldn't help thinking a little more. His mind was full of chaotic thoughts and was unable to make sense of them.

Too little.

Currently, he knew too little about Ren Bulin's matters.

Lin Xuanzhi sneered once and asked Leng Jixue, "Then do you know where this magic treasure for gathering spiritual Qi is located?"

Leng Jixue froze for a moment, then answered, "This I do not know. I only know that the closer I get to the spiritual Qi-gathering magic treasure, the denser the spiritual Qi I will feel."

The group all showed expressions of contempt and understanding,

"Sect Master Ren really played a good hand," Xiao Linfeng remarked.

"Besides, are you sure that you've never had any deep hatred with the Sect Master before?" Duan Yuyang looked at Leng Jixue sympathetically. "Why does he want to harm you like this?"

Leng Jixue's confusion was written all over his face, "What's going on? What on earth is there around the spiritual Qi-gathering magic treasure?"

"The Great Demon-Sealing Array." Lin Xuanzhi answered, “We are speculating that everything, including the barrier around the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest, is all caused by the loosening of the Great Demon-Sealing Array and the dissipation of spiritual Qi."

A bit of astonishment flashed across Leng Jixue's eyes.

"Senior Martial Brother, if there really is a Great Demon-Sealing Array, then the Sect Master meant to..."

"Would he have meant for us to die here?"

"This, this is impossible. The Sect Master has no reason to do this."

Leng Jixue took a deep breath. "Xuanzhi, are you sure?"

Lin Xuanzhi looked at Xiao Linfeng, "If Master Liu did not lie, then it is probably true."

Although the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox had confirmed this point for him, for the sake of Ji Yunwei, Lin Xuanzhi did not intend to expose the existence of the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox.

Xiao Linfeng rubbed his nose, “Liu Mengchen likely wouldn't lie about such matters. Besides, he has already gone to look for the Great Demon-Sealing Array."

Leng Jixue was silent for a moment. "If that's so, then I have to find the legendary spiritual Qi-gathering magic treasure."

Lin Xuanzhi spoke, "Brain-dead."

Leng Jixue smiled, "If I'm brain-dead, then let me be brain-dead. I'd rather die in understanding than die in ignorance. Oh right, where are you guys heading now?"

Ji Yunwei replied, "Naturally, we want to find the magic treasure for gathering spiritual Qi."

Leng Jixue smiled, "May I go with you?"

Yan Tianhen reluctantly twitched his mouth but did not refuse.

Duan Yuyang said, "It doesn't matter if we go together. However, when we find that spiritual Qi-gathering magic treasure, it is not for you. You can only look and not touch."

Leng Jixue nodded, looking very gentle. "You guys can rest assured that I have no intention of possessing the spiritual Qi-gathering magic treasure. Moreover, the Sect Master is determined to win the magic treasure, so he likely wouldn't send just my team to look for it." He looked at the only three remaining martial brothers and sighed, "I have done my utmost duty to the Sect Master."

"Senior Martial Brother." Xiong Yun spoke up, “I don't want to walk deeper inside anymore."

"I also don't want to go." Another junior martial brother said, "The deeper we go, the more troublesome and powerful the demonic beasts we'll encounter. My...my cultivation is not enough and my ability is insufficient. I don't want to court death."

"You guys..." Leng Jixue paused and turned to Ji Yunwei, "Young Master Ji, your understanding of the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest is much greater than ours. Can you please give us a path to the edge of the forest and let my junior martial brothers leave first?"

Ji Yunwei replied, "Even if there is a map, you guys still cannot leave."

Leng Jixue responded, "It'll still be safer than here."

Ji Yunwei nodded, “That's fine, I'll draw it for you."

Thus, Ji Yunwei quickly drew out the safest route from here to the entrance of the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest on a scroll — of course, the so-called safest route was only safe in theory.

After Ji Yunwei finished drawing the route, the several Sky Peak Sect disciples held the scroll as though it was the most precious treasure and repeatedly thanked Ji Yunwei.

Xiong Yun's line of sight was still staying on the flying unicorns. What he wanted was self-evident.

The crowd regarded it as if they hadn't seen it. Leng Jixue's face was also full of embarrassment as he spoke to Xiong Yun, "Xiong Yun, you guys should leave first. It will be dark soon."

Xiong Yun said, "Right now, there's no difference whether the sky is dark or not. Senior Martial Brother, the road is long, and our demonic beast mounts have long been destroyed. I wonder if a few of these flying unicorns can be lent to us?"

"No way." Yan Tianhen firmly refused, "We each have a horse, no more, no less. It's just right, plus a Senior Martial Brother Leng. In fact, there is one more person than horse, so naturally, we can't lend any to you."

Xiong Yun said, "Why don't you two share a horse? In any case, it doesn't make any difference whether the flying unicorn carries one person or two."

Leng Jixue could no longer maintain his expression. He told Xiong Yun stiffly, "Don't mention this matter again. You can't be dissatisfied with small gains and push your luck. Since you have already gotten the map, leave quickly."

Although Xiong Yun was still unwilling, he was nevertheless afraid of Leng Jixue and could only say reluctantly, "Alright, but Shixiong you have to guard against them. After all, there are so many of them, and it is hard to say what they want to do to you."

Duan Yuyang gave a big roll of the eyes when he heard this, "I'll say; aren't you measuring the extent of a gentleman's generosity using the heart of a petty person? What on Leng Jixue's body is worth coveting? Does he look like an immortal or is he covered in treasures?"

Xiong Yun's expression was dark and he still wanted to say something, but Leng Jixue interrupted him.

"You guys hurry and leave. We still need to continue going inside the forest."

Seeing that Leng Jixue was about to get angry, Xiong Yun could only take his two junior martial brothers and leave.

After the three people left, Leng Jixue said apologetically, “My junior martial brother is ill-mannered in speech. I still hope everyone can forgive him."

Yan Tianhen said, "They all came from the same sect. Why is there such a big difference?"

Leng Jixue explained, "Even people born from the same mother's womb will have many differences in temperament and character, let alone disciples from the same sect."

Lin Xuanzhi asked lightly, "Huangfu Jin did not go out with you?"

Leng Jixue's expression changed slightly but quickly returned to normal. "Not only is he my fellow junior martial brother, but he's also the Young Master of the Huangfu family and the Young City Lord of Sky Peak City. He cannot easily leave Sky Peak City. Besides...he shouldn't know that I am here right now."

"Fuck, I indeed don't know!" Huangfu Jin suddenly came out of nowhere and rushed to the front of Leng Jixue. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked like he was on the verge of suffering a Qi deviation. He shouted, "You told me before that when I came back, we would enter secluded cultivation together. When I came back a few days later and looked for you again, I couldn't find any trace of you. Do you know how I felt at that time?"

After Huangfu Jin finished yelling, he realized that his voice seemed a little loud. He took a deep breath and lowered the volume, "I'm no longer asking anything else from you, but can you stop deceiving me? At least let me know where you are!"

Leng Jixue's face was full of shock, "Ah Jin, how are you here?"

"How am I here? How can I be here!" Huangfu Jin was gripping a Voice Transmission Talisman in his hand, his fingers shaking, "If I hadn't received your Voice Transmission Talisman, how could I have tracked you here?!"

"I..." Leng Jixue straightened his thoughts, "I mean, how can you be in the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest? It was precisely because I knew you weren't here that ......."

When he got here, Leng Jixue closed his mouth.

Huangfu Jin smiled coldly, but his smile was somewhat pitiful. He spoke sorrowfully, "Shixiong, I know what you want to say. You merely wanted to say that you clearly knew that I wouldn't be in the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest, a location that has already become completely isolated from the outside world. Therefore, it would've been impossible for me to receive this Voice Transmission Talisman; that was why you could send this talisman without any scruples. Or, do you want to say that even if I had received it, I would still be thousands of miles away in Sky Peak City, so it would be absolutely impossible for me to come and save you in time – that's why you could rest assured and brazenly send this talisman to me! Have you ever thought about how I would handle it if you were to die or suffer injuries, and I never get to see you again?"
