Chapter 2466 - 2471: Divine Demon Wasteland

Chapter 2466: Chapter 2471: Divine Demon Wasteland

Bai Yu was determined to fulfill his duty.

He had always intended to follow his friend to the end.

Now, with such an opportunity, it was simply divine assistance.

He could repay Xia Liu a little for his kindness.

"However, before heading to Central Continent, I want to visit a few places in the Northern Realm."

Xia Liu was originally from the Northern Realm.

Leaving the Cultivation Realm for so long, and now returning to his old haunts.

He had many places he wanted to visit.

He wanted to see those who cared about him.

To let them know he was safe.

"This is definitely necessary. I remember years ago when the news of your death at Long Yang’s hands spread, many people from the Cultivation Realm went to the Eastern Realm to demand an explanation, including some young people."

"Hmm? Did Long Yang do anything to them?"

Upon hearing this news, Xia Liu became anxious.

Those demanding an explanation on his behalf were certainly people he knew well.

How could they be a match for Long Yang?

They couldn’t even withstand Long Yang’s pressure.

"Nothing much happened; your death caused such a huge uproar that the girl from Central Continent had to come out to mediate."

Upon hearing Bai Yu say this, Xia Liu felt relieved.

This girl from Central Continent should be the Empress.

"Senior Bai Yu, do you know who from the Northern Realm went to Central Continent?"

Xia Liu wanted to find the source directly to reassure them.

"I don’t know much, but it seems that the genius cultivator who mastered the Righteous Energy of Heaven and Earth went."

"Qi Zheng!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Liu understood.

The Northern Realm only had this friend who mastered the Power of Righteous Law.

"Got it. Then, tell me a location, and let’s go together."

"Mm."

Without further ado, Xia Liu took the lead flying toward the Qi Family.

After Xia Liu and Bai Yu flew in the Northern Realm for several days.

The location in the Northern Realm Frontier where Xia Liu broke through the formation.

A white lotus drifted in the void.

"How is this possible!"

An incredulous voice emanated from within the lotus.

Thankfully, Xia Liu left quickly.

Otherwise, he might have directly erupted in conflict with the Empress.

Starting this battle early was not good for Xia Liu.

Even with Bai Yu’s assistance.

Because the Empress still held Bai Jue’s remnant soul.

Xia Liu had to find a way to destroy the Empress while leaving her powerless regarding Bai Jue’s remnant soul.

The view shifted to the Northern Realm Frontier.

The Empress stayed for a long time.

Taking out a red crystal.

The crystal flickered weakly.

Though faint.

It only appeared as a subtle result after she augmented it with divine skills.

There should be no mistake, Bai Jue’s remnant soul has reappeared!

"The formation has cracked, along with the flickering soul crystal stone. Is it really you who returned!"

The Empress immediately thought of Bai Jue.

After all, he was the previous Lord of Central Continent.

Having been by his side for years, the Empress understood Bai Jue’s power very well.

She exhausted everything, ultimately could only suppress Bai Jue through sealing.

Afterward, she never went to North Cool County again.

Worried that Bai Jue would seize the opportunity to emerge when the seal was opened externally.

A few years ago, she visited and found the seal indeed broken.

However, Bai Jue’s remnant soul did not react further.

This indicated he was no longer within the realm.

He should have been crushed together with Xia Liu by Long Yang.

Recently, upon seeing the soul crystal stone flicker again, the Empress felt a sense of unease.

This time, she worried about Xia Liu appearing with a high-strength cultivation!

After all, that guy’s talent was unparalleled.

Even if he has Spirit Transformation Peak cultivation now, the Empress wouldn’t be surprised.

"A calamity!"

The Empress felt some reluctance.

She quickly left the place, searching around.

She must find Xia Liu as swiftly as possible.

Only then could she destroy him before he had absolute strength.

Meanwhile, within a courtyard of the Qi Family.

After years of recuperation, Qi Zheng’s internal injuries were mostly healed.

The conflict between Qi Zheng and Long Yang had no impact on the Qi Family.

Because the Empress intervened at the time.

The Qi Family was a pillar of righteousness in the Northern Realm; Long Yang, if he killed Qi Zheng in front of everyone.

Not only would it disgrace him as a Spirit Transformation Peak expert.

It would also undoubtedly announce a break with the Righteous Path Cultivators.

Even though Long Yang despised those standing up for Xia Liu.

But he couldn’t afford to provoke all the Righteous Path Cultivators in the Cultivation Realm for now.

And he wouldn’t dare to kill outright; Long Yang didn’t have such a face.

Looking at the red maple leaves outside the window.

Qi Zheng didn’t know how many autumns it had been since Xia Liu’s demise.

"Friend, rest assured, I won’t do anything foolish again. Once I achieve Spirit Transformation cultivation, I’ll surely destroy Long Yang! I’ll use his blood and flesh to honor your spirit in heaven."

"Haha, I’ll personally handle this matter; for now, you should focus on recuperating and resume your cultivation as soon as possible."

The sudden voice surprised Qi Zheng.

Turning around and seeing the familiar visage.

He couldn’t help but shed tears.

"You..."

" I’m back, surviving against all odds."

"Haha! I knew you’d be alright..."

Qi Zheng was filled with excitement.

Embracing Xia Liu together.

His longing could hardly be compared to Bai Yu’s sentiment toward Bai Jue.

Seeing his resurrected friend, how could he not be excited?

This occasion, Xia Liu only left the Qi Family the next day.

Regarding his situation, he asked Qi Zheng to keep it a secret for now.

To give the Empress and Long Yang a surprise!

Upon leaving the Qi Family, Xia Liu donned a black robe, concealing his face entirely.

Having Bai Yu lead the way, they used the Northern Realm Cultivation Alliance’s teleportation formation to travel to Central Continent.

As for the Northern Realm Alliance Chairman, Xia Liu didn’t disturb him, opting to leave quietly first.

Those who cared about him would hear news about him in the future!

He guaranteed it!

Because of Bai Yu’s strength, a slight leak of his aura.

Across the entire Cultivation Realm, those who dare disrespect him are fewer than three.

With him leading, Xia Liu naturally had clear passage.

Even upon arriving at Central Continent, a few Spirit Transformation Stage Great Elders of the Cultivation Alliance were outside the formation.

They showed nothing but respect for Bai Yu.

The God-Demon Wasteland.

The most horrifying and terrifying secret realm in Central Continent, bar none.

It’s said this secret realm was one of the sites of the ancient God-Demon wars.

Therefore, extreme caution is necessary within the secret realm.

Even Spirit Transformation Peak experts cannot afford to be complacent.

Otherwise, falling into formations or traps set by Great Power cultivators or Demon God experts.

Even with tremendous strength, one would be significantly diminished.

Ultimately, dying in the process.

Moreover, many demonic qi linger in certain dangerous places; inadvertently, one might be attacked by demonic qi.

Throwing inner breath into disarray.

Succumb to evil on the spot.

Thus, the God-Demon Wasteland has been a place few dare tread since ancient times.

Later, after Bai Jue became the Lord of Central Continent, he designated this area as forbidden land; anyone wishing to enter must apply through the Cultivation Alliance.

Bai Jue and Bai Yu traversed the God-Demon Wasteland, understanding its horrors.

Ordinary Early-Stage Spirit Transformation cultivators venturing inside are likely to perish.

"Xia Liu, hereafter you must follow your friend closely; the risk level of this place is no less than walking directly on Ruishui River."

"Anything comparable to Ruishui River must be extremely terrifying!"

Xia Liu couldn’t comprehend, but only such perilous places would contain worldly treasures.

He eagerly anticipated the moment when his Demon Body would transform into a Dao Body...

P: Today’s update ends, everyone rest early.
