The city of rotting iron and blood was like a veteran, yet also like a soaring golden crow that stood tall between heaven and earth, dazzling everyone's eyes.
"Jackdaw, we meet again."
A few months ago, she, a group of Myriad Beasts Palace disciples and many heaven's pride experts had luckily escaped from the hands of the Evil Demon. At that time, they had landed outside of Jackdaw.
Unlike the last time she took a quick glance, this time, when she and Jiu Xuanling stepped into the Jackdaw, they clearly felt what kind of terrifying fluctuations were contained within the city.
It was as if a sharp sword had unsheathed itself, easily crushing and taming the incoming demonic energy.
Just as he entered the city, sensing the change in the aura, Jiu Muli was extremely shocked.
"Follow me."
This was the Devil Emperor's Palace's Elder, Yun Wuyou. This was an elder who had just broken through to Saint a hundred years ago, and this trip was to replace one of Jiu Xuanling's senior brothers.
As an elder of the Devil Emperor's Palace, he had visited the Void Battlefield many times when he was still in the Great Emperor Stage, so he was very familiar with it.
Bringing Jiu Muli along, they rushed to the palace at the very center of the city. That was the place where the guardians of the Sacred Grounds went into seclusion, Treading the Heavens Fault.
Along the way, Jiu Muli looked around, and realised that there were truly many cultivators inside the city, all of them were filled with killing intent, like fierce beasts, it was obvious, they were all cultivators that fought against evil monsters year round.
Other than them, there were also other cold and detached soldiers. These Devil Realm soldiers had cultivation methods that followed the path of killing intent and were nurtured by the combined forces of many sect s. They had been growing in the Void Battlefield all this time, and their strength was astonishing.
Of course, other than the two categories, there were also cultivators with bright clothes and strong auras. Their killing intent was much weaker, most of them were sharp, and Jiu Muli knew without guessing that these people were the Heaven's Pride from the sect s who had just arrived.
It was just that unfortunately, Jiu Muli did not know any of these people, and she occasionally saw two familiar faces, but she could not remember who they were.
However, although Jiu Muli did not recognize them, they recognized Jiu Muli. Furthermore, Jiu Xuanling was a direct disciple of the Demon Emperor.
Thus, following the appearance of the father and daughter pair, many exclamations and whispers were heard. There were even good words and bad words spoken.
"Li Er, it seems that you have attracted quite a few people's attention during this period of time. Be careful in the future."
When Jiu Xuanling heard this, he could not help but remind Jiu Muli.
Being famous was a good thing, but it was also a good thing, especially when it came to cultivators who were lawless. There was no place for two tigers in a mountain.
"Yes, I don't need to worry, Father. I understand."
Jiu Muli nodded, while they were talking, they had already arrived at the most central residence, the Heaven Treading Palace. This was a process that every single cultivator that came before must go through, to register their identity!
Once they had registered their identity, they would not be allowed to leave for the next year, no matter who it was.
Originally, according to the agreement, for a power, the Devil Emperor's Palace would not send Jiu Xuanling alone, but even though there were a lot of disciples, the number of direct disciples in the Demon Emperor was very few. Thus, this time, there was only Jiu Xuanling in the Devil Emperor's Palace, plus the few disciples that were here a long time ago, it was enough to suppress all their dissatisfaction.
After Jiu Muli and Jiu Xuanling had finished registering, a young cultivator came forward to pay his respects respectfully and said: "Nine Martial Uncle s, master invites you to come in for a chat." As he said that, he seemed to be worried that he wasn't clear enough, and added: "This master is Awakening Saints."
"You are the disciple of Senior Brother Tianqi?"
Jiu Xuanling was surprised, then laughed: "Then quickly bring me there."
He then turned to Jiu Muli and said: "Li Er, I have never seen this senior brother of mine before, but I heard from Master that his cultivation is just a step away from becoming a Great Sage."
"So powerful."
Jiu Muli was shocked. Even though they were also hegemons, she realized that the Devil Emperor's Palace was ridiculously strong.
I wonder if Uncle Qin's Blue Cloud Hall also hid other experts?
Whether it was Qin Cangyun or the Demon Emperor, both of them had cultivated for thousands of years. She did not believe that these two people only had these few disciples.
If that was really the case, then it would be impossible for him to hold the position of the strongest power. After all, there were many ancient sect, and his background was also extraordinary.
Jiu Muli followed Jiu Xuanling and on the way, Jiu Muli found out that the young man was called Yue Han, and was Awakening Saints's only disciple.
It was because this Senior Brother Yue Han was really not bad, and seemed like he had only cultivated for 60 years or so, to actually be on par with Jiu Xuanling in such a short period of time.
That was especially true of Meng Hao, whose combined aura made it clear that he had stepped out of his own Dao, and was now in possession of his own Dao heart.
Not long after, they arrived at a residence filled with powerful Inhibition. The moment they entered, they heard a hearty smile coming from within.
"Ninth Junior Brother, you're finally here."
As the sound of his voice faded, a burly man walked out from the room with a sincere smile on his face.
"Senior-apprentice Brother Tianqi!"
Seeing that, Jiu Xuanling hurriedly greeted, and at the same time, pulled Jiu Muli and began to introduce him.
After the greetings were over, the Awakening Saints looked at the father and daughter duo and praised them: "Old Ninth, you're still the best. Not only are you amazing, you even gave birth to such a good daughter.
"Senior Brother, why don't you find a wife as soon as possible." Seeing this, Jiu Xuanling laughed casually.
"Haha, forget it, let's not talk about this. Senior likes freedom."
The Awakening Saints waved his hand and threw a jade pendant to Jiu Muli: "You're actually Ol 'Nine's daughter, just treat this as a greeting gift."
"Thank you, Martial Uncle."
Jiu Muli expressed her thanks. Soon after, she discovered that the jade pendant contained an extremely powerful aura, as if it was a giant dragon that could fly anytime.
"Senior apprentice-brother, what are we going to do?" Jiu Xuanling couldn't help but be shocked.
Jiu Muli could not tell, but he understood that this was a treasure refined by the Awakening Saints with his own blood and sweat.
Even if one was a saint, this kind of treasure couldn't be easily refined. Otherwise, not only would it damage one's spirit, it would also cause a backlash to one's blood. Normal teachers and disciples wouldn't be willing to part with it.
"A small thing is nothing."
The Awakening Saints waved his hand and waited for the two to settle down. Then, he looked at Elder Yun Wuyou and said: "I have already reached the end of the fifty years time limit. It's time to return to my master and leave this place to you."
"Don't worry, Fifth Prince." Yun Wuyou nodded solemnly.
Seeing that, Tian Qi nodded his head, then looked at Jiu Xuanling and said: "Ninth Brother, this time Void Battlefield is different, you must be careful, remember, if you cannot do it, do not try to be brave, if there is anyone who dares to cause trouble, do not be afraid to cause trouble."
"I understand."
Jiu Xuanling nodded solemnly.
