Bank of the Universe

Chapter 520: Clues!

The demon and Zhong Zi Qi had arrived in Heaven Sky a long time ago.

Before Heaven and Earth Celestial Sect was destroyed by Li Xiandao, they paid the fees and entered Heaven Sky.

Until now, the two of them were still searching.

Heaven Sky was too huge. From the mountains to the rivers, from north to south, from the grasslands to the snowfields, Zhong Zi Qi and the demon went everywhere.

They didn’t run aimlessly. They found many factions and intel organizations. After paying a huge sum, they still didn’t obtain much information.

They had no resources, no information, and were totally exhausted.

In a small city, the demon sat alone in the inn. He drank wine and ate lamb. Although it tasted good, he didn’t care much about it.

Zhong Zi Qi’s soul that was sitting opposite him could only watch and he couldn’t reach out.

Both of them didn’t look good.

“We have been in Heaven for such a long time and still haven’t found a demon god pillar. If Master blames us, we won’t be able to handle the consequences.” Zhong Zi Qi sighed.

“Have you searched everywhere for treasure? Have you been to Heaven Sky before?” The demon asked.

“I have but I usually just search for treasure. The people here are too strong. I don’t dare to behave so arrogantly in front of them.” Zhong Zi Qi said regretfully.

His understanding of Heaven Sky was very limited and far from what he knew about the other worlds.

In Heaven Sky, he was weak. Even if there were troubles, he wouldn’t dare to find them. If he met an expert, he would definitely lose his life.

In other worlds, he could take care of himself and could suppress others. That meant that he was safe.

So, Zhong Zi Qi was totally confused.

“The demon god pillar is something that you wanted to find. Now, I’ve ended up as the main person looking. When you were talking big, did you think about this?” Zhong Zi Qi was annoyed.

The demon sighed, “Who thought that what one bragged about would come true?”

If he knew about the problems they were facing now, the demon would have talked less. Why did he mention all twelve? He should have just said eight.

If he said eight, he would have completed the mission now.

“Master has entered Heaven already. If he wants the demon god pillars and you can’t take them out, let’s see what will happen to you.” Zhong Zi Qi sighed.

“I can only tell the truth. If Master wants to punish me, then let him.” The demon sighed and bit off a piece of meat.

“We came to this town because we heard that someone here saw the demon god pillar before. Who knows if it is true or not?” Zhong Zi Qi said calmly.

“Don’t hold much hope. We have found around 100 such people who said that they have seen demon god pillars before but when we went over to take a look, they were just nonsense. Anyway, I don’t have much hope anymore.” The demon shook his head.

“Since we are here, let’s just take a look.” Zhong Zi Qi said helplessly.

“Okay then, let’s finish the food before heading over.” The demon sped up. After finishing the lamb, he paid and left.

There was an ancient city with tens of thousands of people. It occupied an important path on the outskirts, so many merchants passed this place. They transported many items to sell and earn some money.

These were all basic cultivators while those top cultivators didn’t bother about these sales.

So, the demon and Zhong Zi Qi didn’t face any problems along the way.

After the demon took over Zhong Zi Qi’s body, he didn’t stop cultivating at all. Even when he was eating or searching for people, he would cultivate the Demon Summoning Technique when he was resting.

So, the current demon was already at stage nine, above that of Li Xiandao.

The demon was a Demon World expert with his memory intact. Along with the thick spiritual energy in Heaven Sky and the strength of the Demon Summoning Technique, the demon unknowingly reached stage nine.

But even then, he was still afraid of Li Xiandao. He was afraid that Li Xiandao would come and ask about the Demon God Pillars.

The demon was already traumatized by Li Xiandao.

They walked about in the ancient city and under the leadership of others, they came to a dojo.

“The Master of the dojo has seen the pillar that you spoke of. I visited him many times before he agreed to see you. Please don’t forget about my hard work.” A local person said.

The demon casually tossed a god source to him and said impatiently, “Bring us in. If the news is not right, then you will not get anything else.”

“What if the news is right?” The local said confidently.

The demon smiled. He had seen 100 such people, so how would he know what was going on?

“If your news is true, I will pay you 10 times the price. But if it is wrong, don’t blame me.” The demon squinted his eyes.

“Don’t worry, as long as the information you give me is right, I am sure this will not go wrong. This 10 times price is definitely mine.” He smiled and giggled.

“Are you so confident?” Zhong Zi Qi was really surprised and listened on.

“There have been so many confident people in the past but the truth proved that it was fake.” The demon didn’t care and told the local to lead.

After entering the dojo, they saw an old man walk out.

A white-haired old man who was really old with decent cultivation at only Legend Realm stage 33.

Logically speaking, he should have been able to live for a really long time at this stage but he was already at the end of his lifespan.

“This is the last Dojo Head. Because of the dangers he encountered during a trip, he lost his life force and became like this.” The local introduced him.

The demon greeted and then asked, “Old Dojo Head, do you know about the pillar I am looking for?”

The demon didn’t have hope in his answer.

“Four giant black pillars stuck right into the clouds. They are really tough and can’t be damaged no matter what, not even leaving a mark.” The dojo head added.

The demon was stunned. That seemed like it, he didn’t look like he was talking nonsense.

Thinking about it, the demon had a bit of hope, but just a bit.

“Then, can you draw it for me?” The demon asked.

“I drew it before you came. I will never forget them four in my life.” The old Dojo Head gritted his teeth and said.

Immediately, someone passed him a drawing.

The demon looked at it and his eyes opened wide.

The four pillars were lifelike and it was exactly the same thing that the demon was looking for.

He had been disappointed 100 times and finally saw hope. He wanted to cry but before he cried, Li Xiandao’s voice rang out in his head…

The demon said right away, “Master, there are clues about the demon god pillars. Please wait, I will confirm the location right away.”

“Okay.” Li Xiandao’s cold voice rang out. He then ended the conversation and waited silently.
