119: Huang Yunzong

While the Gold-Devouring Ants were searching for the ruins of the Huangyun Sect, Su Yu was chatting with Old Monster Yang Lu.

"Fellow Daoist Yang Lu, speaking of which, doesn't that mars of your Seven Luan Sea contain a Demon Seed?"

"According to the ancient records I've read, once mars descends, it means the Demon Tribulation is about to break out."

"In three years at most, or one year at least, a Demon Nest will descend from the sky, and countless members of the Demon Race will pour out from it to begin destroying the Human Realm."

"But after so many years, mars hasn't changed at all, which is quite strange."

"It is indeed strange when you put it that way, but don't you think, Fellow Daoist, that the Spiritual Qi of the Human Realm has become even thinner lately?"

"In my view, those of the Demon Race, having experienced failure during the ancient period, are simply trying to find a roundabout way to invade."

"However, once we obtain the void-piercing shuttle and head to the Spirit Realm, we can mention it to the mighty figures of the Upper Realm."

"If the Seniors who ascended from the Human Realm in the ancient period are still alive, they certainly won't sit idly by!"

Su Yu was full of doubts regarding the Demon Tribulation.

It was as if this descending mars was not a sign of the Demon Tribulation at all, but rather that the true omen lay elsewhere.

Since the ancient records stated it as such, Su Yu couldn't make wild guesses and could only voice his thoughts.

Old Monster Yang Lu, however, was dismissive.

In his eyes, as long as he could ascend to the Spirit Realm before the Demon Tribulation broke out, why should he fear the Demon Race?

Once he reached the Spirit Realm and found those ascended Seniors to tell them about the situation in the Human Realm, he would have done his part.

"Heh."

Su Yu shook his head and laughed.

Old Monster Yang Lu thought it was no big deal, but Su Yu always felt something was fishy.

However, he had previously divined the secrets of heaven, but since there was no feedback, he hadn't paid much attention.

While chatting with Old Monster Yang Lu, this thought suddenly crossed his mind again.

After thinking for a moment, Su Yu decided to try divining the secrets of heaven once more.

Although divining the secrets of heaven would result in backlash, as long as it didn't involve too broad a scope regarding himself, he could bear it.

Thus, he pinched his fingers with his left hand, his thumb constantly calculating across his four fingers.

Suddenly, an extremely evil gaze seemed to fixate on him.

But it vanished in a flash, so quickly that Su Yu thought it was an illusion.

But generally speaking, for a Spirit Transformation Cultivator, perceptual errors rarely occurred.

Such a situation gave Su Yu a jolt.

Although he gained nothing from divining the secrets of heaven, Su Yu had already begun to feel wary after what happened just now.

"There is some incredible danger in these ruins of the Huangyun Sect!"

Su Yu thought to himself.

Then he said to Old Monster Yang Lu, "Just now, I divined the secrets of heaven and found the feedback to be abnormal. Although my Art of Heavenly Secrets is not very strong..."

"...I can still foresee certain threats in advance."

"This ruin is somewhat strange; you must be extremely careful when we enter!"

Upon hearing this, Old Monster Yang Lu was immediately surprised. "Fellow Daoist Xuan Xiao also knows the Art of Heavenly Secrets?"

"Regardless, I have noted your warning."

Although Yang Lu was surprised that a Sword Cultivator like Su Yu knew the Art of Heavenly Secrets, as a Spirit Transformation Cultivator, Su Yu certainly wouldn't talk nonsense.

Furthermore, while others might not know the details, he knew a thing or two.

In his view, Su Yu was likely a Spirit Transformation Cultivator from the same era as Old Monster Tian Lin.

Otherwise, how could he suddenly appear with the strength of Mid-Stage Deity Transformation and even severely wound Old Monster Yin?

Aside from those foolish Nascent Soul Cultivators, who would believe he was a newly advanced Soul Transformation?

He naturally had to take Su Yu's advice to heart.

A few months later, Old Monster Yang Lu's Gold-Devouring Ants seemed to have sensed something.

They continuously transmitted the situation to Old Monster Yang Lu through a Divine Soul mark.

"Found it!"

Overjoyed, Old Monster Yang Lu slapped his thigh and immediately spoke to Su Yu.

"In that case, please lead the way, Fellow Daoist."

Su Yu nodded.

Old Monster Yang Lu led Su Yu into the Void Realm and then flew rapidly in a certain direction.

But before flying off, several Spirit Treasures flew out from them, spinning rapidly to protect the two.

Facing the incoming astral winds, the power of the Spirit Treasures alone was enough to resist them.

After flying for over half a month, they finally saw a massive mountain range in a certain area of the Void Realm.

It was a staggering hundreds of thousands of miles in size!

Moreover, atop the mountain range sat the ruins of a massive Sect.

This place was presumably the Huangyun Sect.

Old Monster Yang Lu looked at the swarm of Gold-Devouring Ants with satisfaction; after putting them into a spirit insect bag, he tossed in several pieces of precious iron essence.

The two flew another hundreds of thousands of miles before reaching the mountain range.

Although the Huangyun Sect had fallen into the Void Realm for ten thousand years, a large number of its Formations and Restrictions still remained.

In particular, the power from the battle between Soul Transformation experts and the Demon Race back then had not been extinguished even after so many years.

If it were Nascent Soul Cultivators, let alone exploring these ruins, they would likely turn and leave the moment they laid eyes on it.

The two did not hesitate and plunged headlong into the ruins of the Huangyun Sect.

Facing Restrictions capable of severely wounding or even killing any Nascent Soul Cultivator, the two didn't even give them a second glance.

Relying solely on their Spirit Treasures for protection, they forced their way through the Restrictions and successfully entered the interior of the Huangyun Sect.

"The void-piercing shuttle is one of the supreme treasures of the Huangyun Sect. According to records, it should be within Purple Cloud Peak, the head of the Huangyun Sect's seven peaks."

"We'll find the void-piercing shuttle first, and then scavenge the ruins for treasures. How about it?"

Although the Huangyun Sect had been destroyed, some spiritual lands remained.

It was, after all, a branch of a great Upper Realm Sect that had a Legacy spanning tens of thousands of years and had possessed multiple Soul Transformation Cultivators.

The rare treasures within were far more precious than those in the Ling Ji Secret Realm.

After all, the treasures in the Ling Ji Secret Realm were just things Venerable Ling Ji had placed there at his convenience.

Even the tens-of-thousands-of-years-old Spirit Medicines were mostly of the second or third rank.

Old Monster Yang Lu was worried that Su Yu might delay finding the void-piercing shuttle for the sake of the treasures before them, so he spoke up.

He had, after all, inquired about Su Yu's temperament!

If Su Yu knew what Old Monster Yang Lu was thinking, he might have been moved to angry laughter.

With such a reputation, who knew who had spread it!

"Fine!"

Su Yu nodded.

Seeing this, Old Monster Yang Lu chuckled, then took out a map and began to consult it.

After a glance, Old Monster Yang Lu flew rapidly toward a certain location.

Su Yu followed closely behind.

One after another, Restrictions erupted with brilliant light, but as soon as they approached the two Spirit Transformation Old Monsters, they were automatically neutralized.

Suddenly, a sky full of yellow sand swept toward them.

It was none other than the Ten-Thousand-Mile Yellow Sand Formation, one of the Huangyun Sect's Formation Restrictions.

This Formation could erode a person's Physical Body and destroy their Divine Soul.

If a Soul Transformation were controlling this Ten-Thousand-Mile Yellow Sand, even Cultivators of the same Realm wouldn't dare to enter lightly.

Old Monster Yang Lu snorted coldly; with a swing of his arm, he brandished a giant silver hammer and smashed it toward the yellow sand.

Then, with a spit from his mouth, a peculiar Spirit Treasure that was entirely red and resembled a palm-leaf fan appeared in his hand.

He gripped the fan and gave it a light wave, and a vast expanse of fiery wind lunged toward the yellow sand.

In an instant, the sky-covering yellow sand was defeated.

Before the yellow sand could gather again, the goat Old Monster Yang Lu was riding let out a strange bleat.

A wave of sonic power immediately and easily destroyed the Restriction of this Ten-Thousand-Mile Yellow Sand.

"This Savage Strange Species is quite impressive."

Only then did Su Yu discover that the goat the old monster was riding was not an ordinary Yao Beast at all, but actually a Savage Strange Species.

It possessed the Bloodline of the savage strange beast, the Nether-Sound Goat.
