Chapter 114 - The Libidinal City in the Fiend Realm (I)
Chapter 114: The Libidinal City in the Fiend Realm (I)
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
Tai Hua Mountain had been erected on Xuan Tian Continent for tens of thousands of years, and thus countless secrets were forgotten with time passing.
Who would remember the unknown talented cultivator that was once admired by the whole continent? He was such a brilliant cultivator that should never fade away in the long history and only become a drop in the ocean.
However, when Luo Jianqing asked Qing Jun about this cultivator, he didn’t know anything either.
But why did no one except few people of Tai Hua mountain know Sir Jiu Lian ?
Why were the direct descendants of of Mo’s family who once dominated the whole continent exiled to the Cold Desert and suffered from pain?
And what happened in those hundreds of years that made the two most powerful cultivators disappear-one had already died, and the other, although his Life Lantern hadn’t gone out yet, also vanished on this huge continent without any trace.
Qing Jun didn’t talk much with Luo Jianqing and bagan to practice in-door training again. He only said that he wished Luo Jianqing could take him to the cold wasteland to visit the descendants of Mo’s family. He wanted to know what they looked like and how things were going on.
Luo Jianqing would do that anyway with or without Qing Jun’s words. He had thought that they were just exiled and would not be persecuted, but it had never occurred to him that they were the true blood of the Mos.
Now, the collateral branch took the chair, like a dog in the manger.
On Xuan Tian Continent, where traditions and hierarchy were strictly obeyed, such immoral thing should become a public nuisance, but no one had ever talked about it, so, the life of Mo Qiu and other Mo’s descendants must be very hard.
In his previous life, Luo Jianqing had received great benefits from ancestors of the Mo family, now it was the time to reciprocate their favor. Although he could not make them prosperous again, at least he could help them lead a better life.
Now, Luo Jianqing had known a lot of secrets, so he also had many questions to ask Xuan Lingzi.

The team finally set out after their ten days’ rest in Yong state.
The Duan Hun Sect and the elder of Bai family took the lead. It should have been Tai Hua mountain’s duty to lead the team, but since the Duan Hun Sect and the elder were so eager to shoulder the responsibility, Sir Yu Qingzi didn’t want to argue with them anymore and just let them be. After all, she just wanted a quiet and leisure trip.
The team of Tai Hua mountain sat on the Sir Yu Qingzi’s magic pagoda, flying in the center of the whole team at the extremely high speed. They were all high-ranking cultivators, travelling over three thousand miles a day. Several days later, they passed Yun state, and came to the border between the Fiend realm and the thirty-six states.
Everyone put their instruments away here.
The second elder of the Duan Hun Sect said, “After we enter the Fiend realm, we are not permitted to used any flying instrument anymore, which is the Fiend Palace’s rule for all Fiend Cultivators. Besides, we haven’t contacted anyone in the palace this time. Fiend Cultivators are always treacherous and we can seldom get information from the palace. I’ll keep contacting the palace on our way, but we have to be cautious with the Fiend Cultivators we meet.”
The master of Gui Yuan Sect clasped his hands together and said, “Amitabha. Although Fiend Cultivators should be punished, we have an agreement with them, that we cannot kill their cultivators casually within their realm, so please do not kill them unless they attack us first.”
Everyone agreed immediately.
Wei Qiongyin watched them, swords in hands, while Luo Jianqing approached Yu Qingzi and asked, “Sir, is the palace really that difficult to contact? Why haven’t any elder been able to contact them so far?”
Sir Yu Qingzi didn’t keep her voice low, “Yes, Fiend Cultivators are pretty much of loners. They don’t like to contact with outsiders.”
Luo Jianqing looked at Fo Zi subconsciously, who was counting his beads and thinking about something.
Soon, they entered the Fiend realm.
The border between the Fiend realm and Yun state was a big river. After crossing the river, they saw a vast expanse of reddish-brown land, which made them depressed. Wei Qiongyin, who was less powerful, held her sword tight with a serious face.
Luo Jianqing took the chance to approach Fo Zi and asked, “Fo Zi, I am wondering if you can contact anyone in the palace.”
Fo Zi was baffled first, and then said “Amitabha” in a low voice. Then he pulled Luo Jianqing aside and said cautiously, “Yes, I… I know someone that can contact the palace. Last time after I bid farewell with Miss Yun Xiang, she appeared on my way back to the Gui Yuan Sect again and gave me a bell. She told me that if I had trouble, I could walk to that river and shake the bell, and she will hear it.”
Luo Jianqing’s lips twitched slightly, “…”
After a while, Luo Jianqing said, “Why did she give you this bell?”
Fo Zi felt confused and shook his head, “Amitabha. I don’t know, either.”
Luo Jianqing, “…”
Although Fo Zi could contact Yun Xiang this bell, Luo Jianqing couldn’t let him use it right now.
Everyone knew that thousands of years ago, the Gui Yuan Sect deliberately moved to Cen state to defend against Fiend Cultivators. The Gui Yuan Sect viewed “Redeeming All” as their mission, so they hated those who practiced Demon Cultivation to the core. If others knew that Fo Zi had secret connection with a female fiend cultivator, that would be a big blow to his sect.
Therefore, it was better not to use the bell unless it was urgent.
The Fiend realm was extremely vast, even several times larger than Yun state. Meanwhile, the soil here was strangely loose and soft. The air was thick and heavy, as if it was soaked with blood, making people feel stressful and depressed. Covered by black clouds, the sky here was always gloomy and dark. Once they crossed the river, they couldn’t see even a tiny ray of sunshine.
Luo Jianqing felt particularly strange that the spiritual power in his body became slower.
Currently, Luo Jianqing had mastered the fourth seizure, seizing the karma of Nine Heavenly Seizure Record, so he had some deep insights into this skill. He often secretly ran the skill in his body and smoothly felt the laws between the Earth and Heaven. However, in the Fiend realm, he felt the running of spiritual power became much slower.
When Luo Jianqing asked Wei Qiongyin and Fo Zi, they also felt the same. Even Sir Yu Qingzi nodded slightly. “After thousands of years of adjusting, the Fiend realm became more adapted to Fiend Cultivators, so our power would be crippled here and the running of our spiritual power would be much slower.”
That was not good news, but no one were worried about it.
Even if they were weakened, the team still had four Da Sheng Period masters and nearly ten Tribulation Passage masters. No one was able to hurt them unless the Fiend Palace decided to turn hostile.
