198: The trouble of the inheritor of magic power

During the days Chu Ying stayed at Tianxuan Holy Land.

The Three Holy Lands did indeed travel to the Southern Domain and visited Yaoguang Holy Land.

However, the Three Holy Lands did not dare to treat Yaoguang Holy Land in the same way they treated Tianxuan Holy Land.

“The Three Holy Lands of Big Dipper, Jade Balance, Open Yang, and Celestial Balance, have come to visit Shake Light.”

The Saint Lords of the Three Holy Lands also appeared very approachable, not as arrogant as they were in the Central Region.

Soon, the Saint Lord of Yaoguang Holy Land and many Elders also came out to receive these people, but they were not particularly enthusiastic.

They had more or less heard about the events in the Central Region, and were not particularly fond of the Three Holy Lands.

Could it be that these mere Three Holy Lands dared to scheme against Shake Light? Yaoguang Holy Land was not comparable to Tianxuan Holy Land.

Especially within Shake Light, the factions were intricate and complex, and there were even mysterious forces present.

When the people from the Three Holy Lands directly got to the point, stating their willingness to join forces and share the ancient scripture inheritance, Yaoguang Holy Land still refused.

It wasn't that Yaoguang Holy Land was determined to uphold some ancestral teachings.

Rather, Yaoguang Holy Land did not want to form alliances or get too entangled with other forces. It should be known that there were already many factions within Shake Light, making it difficult to reach a unified opinion. And for such a major matter as exchanging and sharing ancient scripture inheritances, even if the Saint Lord made a decision, other factions might not necessarily support it.

Once there was no support, stronger Old Ancestors would step forward, easily leading to confrontation.

Therefore, Yaoguang Holy Land simply refused, preferring to avoid unnecessary trouble.

“Yaoguang, actually…”

Jade Balance Holy Master still wanted to try and persuade him, but Yaoguang Holy Lord shook his head and said, “If I'm not mistaken, this Beidou Summit will likely involve matters concerning the ancient scriptures of our various Holy Lands.”

“Let the younger generation of Disciples handle it then.”

Yaoguang Holy Lord's expression was profound. The Holy Son was from his lineage, not just the Shake Light lineage, but also that unseen and unexposed force.

Even if there were any unforeseen circumstances at the Beidou Summit, he believed the Holy Son would be able to handle it. Moreover, he himself would bring people there, so there was no rush.

“Alas…”

Seeing this, Jade Balance Holy Master and the others could only leave dejectedly.

As for forced coercion? They had no such idea at all, knowing that Yaoguang Holy Land possessed an supreme emperor weapon!

Among the Beidou Seven Great Holy Lands, only Shake Light, Celestial Pivot, and Celestial Dipper Holy Lands possessed supreme emperor weapons.

The peak of the Dao, imperial might covering the world, once activated, even a massive Holy Land would be razed to the ground.

This was a more deterrent foundation than inherited legacies like ancient scriptures.

However, after the three parties left, they did not immediately return to Eastern Linjieshi. Since they had come to the Eastern Wilderness, they might as well find something to do.

Especially since the Holy Sons of their Three Holy Lands had been killed, the first suspicious target was Netherworld First Grade Hall. However, people from Feng Family had also said at the time that there was another mysterious force appearing, specifically targeting those with special Origins and Physiques.

“Search! We can't not even know who the murderer of the Holy Son is, right?”

“Even if we have to turn the Central Region upside down, we must find clues!”

The Three Holy Lands encountered setbacks one after another, first Tianxuan Holy Land, then Yaoguang Holy Land, and finally could only transfer their anger elsewhere.

Thus, another storm rapidly stirred up in the Eastern Wilderness Central Region.

What was shocking was that at this critical juncture, that extremely mysterious group, suspected to be another force not from Netherworld First Grade Hall, actually dared to commit crimes against the current.

The inheritor of Dao One Sect, who possessed a special spiritual body, was murdered!

When he was murdered, his protectors were also killed, and that was a Cultivator in the Saint Lord Realm, even if only a step away from Saint Lord.

Central Region, Feng Family.

“This matter is quite strange. It clearly doesn't bear the marks of Netherworld First Grade Hall, and Netherworld First Grade Hall never acts covertly. Netherworld First Grade Hall only hunts or subdues true Tianjiao; ordinary individuals won't even enter their sight.”

Feng Family Saint Lord spoke with a grim face: “You all should have noticed that the geniuses who have inexplicably died recently, and even some older generation geniuses with higher cultivation, basically all possess remarkable Physiques or Bloodlines.”

An aged Feng Family Saintly Being's eyes flickered, and he said, “Indeed, this is very peculiar. If it were Netherworld First Grade Hall, why wouldn't they have acted like this before?”

Inside Feng Family's great hall, many Elders discussing matters there had solemn expressions.

Even though no one from their Feng Family had died yet, such blatant killings, and their prevalence in the Central Region, truly slapped their Feng Family in the face as a behemoth of the Central Region.

For a moment, they thought of a long-forgotten forbidden term.

“The Devouring Heaven Magic Art has reappeared.”

Feng Family Saint Lord sighed faintly.

In fact, as early as the first appearance of Tongtian River, all parties had already made some conjectures.

It was rumored that the extremely forbidden Demon Arts was related to the existence of the Tongtian River ruins, and it was even highly likely that it was created by the most astonishing Empress throughout history.

Therefore, there might be an inheritance of the Devouring Heaven Magic Art left by that Empress within Tongtian River.

This matter was an open secret among the major forces; no one explicitly stated it.

As for whether such an inheritance appeared and was obtained when Tongtian River finally opened, there was still no definite answer.

However, now, all these signs indicate that the Demon Art Inheritor has emerged, and the numerous Cultivators with special Physiques who have died are the best evidence.

“My Feng Family is irreconcilable with the Demon Art Inheritor!”

As the only Archaic Families in the Central Region, Feng Family discovered it extremely early and chose to be the first to declare their stance.

For no other reason, if the Demon Art Inheritor emerged, then the inheritors of any force would be the Demon Art Inheritor's targets.

The Devouring Heaven Magic Art, known for devouring all Origins under heaven, can devour a Cultivator's Origin to enhance his cultivation, and without any Bottlenecks!

The stronger a Cultivator's Origin, the more he will become the Demon Art Inheritor's target.

The two Young Masters of Feng Family, Feng Xiao and Feng Yuan, both possess powerful Physiques, namely the Pure Yang Body and the Pure Yin Body, respectively.

Undoubtedly, the Demon Art Inheritor would absolutely not spare the two Young Masters of Feng Family.

Even if the Demon Art Inheritor would not temporarily target the two inheritors of Feng Family, after all, Feng Family had just been targeted by Netherworld First Grade Hall, creating a tense atmosphere where every rustle of leaves or cry of a crane suggests an enemy, making them very sensitive.

However, unless the two Young Masters of Feng Family die, the innate Physique Origins they possess will continuously grow stronger as their cultivation improves.

The stronger they become, the more “delicious” they will be to the Demon Art Inheritor.

Therefore, no matter when, the Demon Art Inheritor could potentially act; if not now, then in the future.

And the most important and fundamental point is that while devouring the Origins of Cultivators with special Physiques is the most beneficial for the Demon Art Inheritor, he can also devour ordinary Cultivators to improve his cultivation.

The latter is the most terrifying; to some extent, as long as there are endless Cultivators for the Demon Art Inheritor to devour, then he can infinitely improve his cultivation without any obstacles.

Even… devouring until he achieves emperorship.

Perhaps by devouring a Starry Sky, devouring countless living beings, it is truly possible to attain emperorship.
