Chapter 1354 - 1358: Hatred and Calm

Upon learning that Yun Hao was leaving with Chu Yan and Zhao Ya, Zhao Shishi and the others were truly consumed with jealousy.

No one was afraid of danger, nor of death, so they all wanted to follow Yun Hao.

This time, Yun Hao decisively refused.

Bringing two people, he could still manage, but if there were too many, even if he broke through to the Divine Realm, he probably couldn't handle it all.

Besides, this loss of treasure hunting was not a vacation.

If it weren't for worrying that Chu Yan would overthink, Yun Hao might not have even brought Chu Yan.

Before leaving, Yun Hao gathered Ayun, Qing Luan, and others, instructing them to pay extra attention to the surroundings of Huaxia during this period, to prevent people from the Immortal Realm from causing trouble.

As for the Upper Realm, Yun Hao wasn't as worried; their leader, Young Master Wuqing, was going with him, so how would they dare come?

Yun Hao took Chu Yan and Zhao Ya once again to the Demon Race, but Yun Hao did not use that teleportation Jade Scroll, choosing instead to go on foot.

Regarding Su Jiuzi, Yun Hao still had some caution in his heart. Who knew if this old man was a good person or a bad person?

Just because he said he knew Yun Hao's father, didn't mean he should be trusted. Moreover, the words from Su Jiuzi were somewhat ambiguous!

In the Demon Race Holy City, almost everyone gathered at the altar in the northern corner of the city.

This is the Holy Land of the Demon Race. Once the altar is opened, everyone can enter the Holy Land to seek the unknown secrets of breaking through to the Divine Realm.

As the altar was about to open, seven or eight people stood on it, and all eyes were on them.

The reason was simple: all five great masters of the Holy City were here, not one was missing. Even those beside them were top experts in the Holy City!

However, the most captivating among them was Su Hongling, standing against the wind in a long red dress, missing an arm.

Even without one arm, the aura on Su Hongling was not only undiminished but seemed stronger than before!

At the same time, people noticed one thing, that Su Hongling before them was more composed than before.

Just by standing there, she gave a feeling of not daring to be desecrated and commanded respect.

"Old Su, are you sure that guy will come? Won't he hear that I'm coming and be scared not to show up?"

On the altar, a tall man over two meters glanced at the calm Su Jiuzi and loudly questioned.

"He will come, but I warn you, don't let your personal affairs affect our big issue; otherwise, not only him but even we won't spare you!"

Su Jiuzi looked at Li Zhan, speaking indifferently.

"Hmph, you don't need to tell me that, but after passing the fifth trial, I'll kill him first to avenge my two sons!"

Li Zhan snorted coldly and then stepped aside.

"Let's open the altar first, let others go in first, and wait for Asura. If he doesn't come in an hour, we can go in then, it's still not too late!"

A man in golden armor looked at the sky and said to Su Jiuzi and the others.

"I think it's fine, let's do as Immortal Monarch Xing Tian suggests!"

A noble woman, wearing luxurious attire and a phoenix crown, nodded in support of Xing Tian's proposal.

"I don't mind, it's up to you!"

Ye Wuqing shook his head indifferently and softly spoke a few words to a man behind him.

If Yun Hao were here and saw the man behind Ye Wuqing, he would be utterly shocked. This man was none other than the Celestial Venerable Qilin he had fought in the Land of Trial.

But at this moment, Celestial Venerable Qilin appeared somewhat dazed, with some confusion in his eyes.

Seeing that everyone wanted to open the altar first, Su Jiuzi hesitated but then joined Xing Tian and others to begin opening the altar.

Together, they made a Seal Decision and sent it into the altar before them. Instantly, the altar shone brightly, revealing two virtual, unrealistic iron doors before everyone.

"The door to the Holy Land has been opened, please, enter!"

Su Jiuzi waved his hand and sent an Immortal Yuan onto the iron doors. With a loud rumble, the gate to the Holy Land opened, but from outside, one couldn't see inside clearly.

Upon hearing Su Jiuzi's words, all cultivators with Eighth Grade cultivation rushed in.

As for those below the Eighth Grade, they could only sigh helplessly!

Because the gate to the Holy Land had a Restriction, only cultivators of Eighth Grade and above were qualified to enter; otherwise, entry was impossible.

Previously, people didn't believe it; some cultivators below Eighth Grade attempted to enter the Holy Land. But as soon as they touched the flow on the doors, their bodies shattered, and with them, their Primordial Spirits as well.

As a crowd of experts entered, only a few super experts and a group of cultivators below Eighth Grade were left outside the Holy Land.

Everyone looked at Su Jiuzi and others, standing still there, with some confusion, not understanding what these powerful beings were doing.

Could it be...

Could it be that someone even more formidable was about to join them?

Time passed bit by bit, and the agreed time for entering was almost up, but Yun Hao's silhouette had yet to appear, making Li Zhan a bit restless.

Just as Li Zhan was about to burst into angry curses, five people looked toward the east, only to see three figures slowly appearing, coming closer in the blink of an eye, spanning over a thousand meters to the altar.

"Well, terribly sorry, I got a bit hungry on the road and stopped by a noodle shop for a bowl of noodles!"

Looking at the people in front of him, Yun Hao lightly smiled and said softly.

However, as his gaze swept over Celestial Venerable Qilin and Su Hongling, a trace of doubt flashed in Yun Hao's heart.

It wasn't about why they were here.

It was because Yun Hao sensed a hint of unfamiliarity in their eyes, especially Celestial Venerable Qilin, who showed no emotional fluctuation upon seeing him, which Yun Hao couldn't comprehend.

He had killed Jian San, Celestial Venerable Qilin's master back then, and yet he displayed no reaction upon seeing him?

If it were due to high cultivation and well-hidden emotions, wasn't Li Zhan beside him more highly cultivated?

But look at Li Zhan, gritting his teeth with hatred upon seeing him, undoubtedly ready to strike the moment he got the chance!
