549 The Ancient Existences in Heavenly God Palace

“What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”

The three elders could tell something was wrong with her, and they couldn’t help but frown.

“No… This subordinate will call her over.”

The woman in blue did not dare to disobey and no longer had any scruples. She took out a communication jade slip on the spot and recorded her spiritual force.

After a short while, under the gazes of all the powerhouses, a young woman wearing a veil came to the entrance.

Her features were rather similar to the blue-clothed woman.

As soon as she entered the hall, she was intimidated by the aura of the group of experts, and she could not help but cast a questioning and pleading look at the blue-clothed woman.

The woman in blue stood up again and gave the person a reassuring look before pulling her to the hall center.

“The three Great Gods want to know how you’re doing. Tell us.”

Hearing this, the veiled woman was shocked.

The three elders saw her flustered look and immediately scrunched their brows.

“What happened? Speak.”

The three spoke calmly, but their words were like drumsticks that struck the woman’s heart.

The veiled woman didn’t dare to neglect him and quickly replied respectfully, “Replying to Great Gods, the target of our surveillance is an existence from the outer realm, so we’ve long suspected him to be the ‘antidote.’”

The three elders listened to the woman’s story expressionlessly.

They had also heard of the person she was talking about.

However, they didn’t pay too much attention to it. Over the years, many beings from the outer realm had appeared, but none was the ‘antidote’ as predicted.

After seeing so much, they gradually became numb to it.

“So because of your suspicions, you secretly brought Wan Meng out to verify it?”

The three elders’ gazes fell on the veiled woman, and they intentionally or unintentionally glanced at the blue-clothed woman standing beside her.

The two immediately felt the pressure.

The woman in blue knelt and said in fear, “Please forgive me, Great Gods! It was this subordinate who decided to let Kong Ming take Wan Meng out.”

Wan Meng was a special existence in the Heavenly God Palace.

Even if she pulled out the beards of those three Great Gods, nothing would happen.

All this time, Wan Meng had been confined to the secret realm of the Heavenly God Palace.

All the Immortals here knew her. Usually, no one would care about what she was doing except for not letting her leave the secret realm.

This time, the woman in blue immediately reported the news to the higher-ups because she suspected Lin Qiye was the ‘antidote’ in the prophecy. However, she only received a word of ‘continue monitoring’ and nothing else.

The woman in blue could still hold it in, but recently, the demon race had started to take action, and they had started to appear in the secular world.

It made her unable to sit still. She wanted to meet the three Great Gods but couldn’t find them.

Helplessly, she could only turn her attention to Wan Meng.

She coaxed her to follow the fat monk, Kong Ming, to Tata Village to verify if Lin Qiye was the person in the prophecy.

However, she didn’t expect Kong Ming had encountered an accident on his way to Tata Village with Wan Meng.

She had lost contact with Kong Ming, and Wan Meng had also broken free from his control.

This immediately frightened the woman in blue. She wanted to send people out to search for her, but she didn’t dare to reveal the news.

In the end, she could only find a sister she trusted to follow in Kong Ming’s footsteps.

However, just as the latter was about to leave, she was called over by the three Great Gods.

“Forget it. Since the ‘antidote’ has already been found, I won’t pursue your mistake anymore. Go and bring the prophesied person here now.”

The three elders stared at the blue-clothed woman.

“Yes…”

The blue-robed woman was filled with fear and trepidation. She immediately left with the veiled woman beside her.

The two left the hall. After they were far away, the veiled woman couldn’t help but say, “Sister, are we really going to bring that guy over? Likely, he’s not the one Wan Meng acknowledged as her master!”

Almost everyone in the Heavenly God Palace knew Wan Meng had already acknowledged someone as her master, but no one knew who.

The blue-clothed woman’s face was bitter.

Back then, Kong Ming had disappeared without warning, and Wan Meng had lost contact with him.

She had thought of using the mark left on Wan Meng’s body by the Heavenly God Palace to find her, but she discovered that the mark had been erased.

The mark had been jointly imprinted by the three Great Gods, and if one wanted to erase it, one had to possess the same strength.

In this world, only the demons from the outer world could rival the power of the three Great Gods.

Thus, when she heard that Wan Meng had acknowledged a master, the people of the Heavenly God Palace were happy, but she and her sister were on tenterhooks. They were worried that Wan Meng had been taken away by a demon and forced to recognize it as her master.

If that was the case, the ‘antidote’ Lin Qiye that they had identified…

After losing the divine weapon, could he still lead them to defeat the outer realm demons as the prophecy said?

Thinking that the prophecy might change because of her decision, the blue-clothed woman became more anxious.

“There’s no other way. I can only go and see that guy first.”

The woman in blue gritted her teeth and ran straight to the exit of the secret realm.

At the same time, in Shang Empire, the north.

The snow-capped mountains that stretched for thousands of miles were shrouded in darkness, and this place had become the territory of demons.

High up in the sky, heads peeked out from the dark clouds.

There were beast heads, as well as strange human-like heads slightly twisted.

Each of them was huge and as big as a skyscraper.

At this moment, all of the heads were looking toward the south. They were agitated and let out low roars.

“He has broken through!”

“This power is so terrifying! As expected of the person chosen by the Supreme Being!”

“What should we do now? Should we wake up a new demon nest to deal with it?”

“No, we’ve been preparing for countless years, not just for him. Who’s in charge of the nearest demon nest?”

The many heads discussed among themselves, and soon, one of the leaders came forward to ask about the situation.

“It’s Gui Wu. He was severely injured when he attacked the human last time. He should still be healing now,” One of the heads said.

“Gui Wu…”

The leading head muttered.

Previously, when Lin Qiye broke through to the Incarnation Realm, a Seven-headed Demon had descended and was ready to kill him. However, it did not expect Lin Qiye to use the energy-gathering formation to injure it instead.

“Such a piece of trash. He’s at the peak of the Human Immortal Realm but lost to an Incarnation Realm. After this battle, I think it’s time for someone to replace him.”

“Hmph! Do you have the ability to replace me?”

A discordant voice suddenly barged in.

A crack appeared in the void. A giant claw reached out from it, and more arms and eerie claws broke free.

The spatial rift continued to expand, and soon, heads began to appear. It was the Seven-headed Demon Lin Qiye had fought before.

However, there was a huge change in its body this time.

The meatball-like body had a visible torso, but the arms and strange claws were still all over the body.

Moreover, the heads Lin Qiye had destroyed had regrown, and there was an extra one.

“Gui Wu!”

“You’ve broken through!”

Upon seeing the newcomer, the many heads above the clouds could not help but exclaim.

“Hehe! Opportunities always exist between life and death, and you cowards will never be able to experience the beauty of opportunities!”

Gui Wu’s eight heads were raised high, and the contempt in his eyes was undisguisable.

The leader hidden in the clouds fell silent.

His strength was also in the Earth Immortal Realm. Before, he could suppress Gui Wu, but now, they were at the same stage.

He wouldn’t have the right to belittle him.

“You’re quite lucky, but that guy is causing trouble in your territory. If you don’t handle it well, you’ll have to wait for the punishment of the Supreme Being.”

Many heads in the clouds were gloating.

“You don’t have to worry about that. I’m here to get the Earth Immortal reward. Don’t give me any discount.”

Gui Wu narrowed his eyes as he looked at the head in the clouds.

“Hmph, I won’t go so far as to disobey the rules set by the Supreme Being.”

The head snorted and threw out a strange black ball.

A bright light flashed in Gui Wu’s eyes. With a sweep of his monstrous claw, the black sphere was absorbed into his body.

“Hehe, pitiful fellows. You can slowly waste your time with the trash here. After I’ve dealt with that fellow, I believe the reward from the Supreme Being will allow me to take another step forward and step into the ranks of the Heavenly Demons! Hahaha!”

Gui Wu turned around and disappeared into the void, leaving only a burst of mocking laughter.
