206: He will definitely come!

Xiao Shi felt the terrifying power contained within this Corpse, and his mind was stirred by monstrous waves.

Before this, he had always felt that his Physical Body was quite powerful.

After all, he was also a Body Refining cultivator!

He had even formed an Invincible Vajra Body through Body Refining.

However, compared to this Corpse now... the gap was immense!

It was completely like the difference between clouds and mud.

At the same time, he could also feel that a deep-seated power existed within this Corpse.

However, he was currently unable to utilize this power.

But even so, the Physical Body strength of this Corpse alone had already reached an extremely terrifying level.

Not only that, Xiao Shi also sensed a restless fighting will from within this Corpse.

It was as if it was a born warrior, possessing an extremely strong desire and confidence for battle.

Furthermore, besides its astonishing Physical Body strength, this Corpse's defense was even more terrifying.

When Xiao Shi tried to unleash the 【 Blood Vein Finger 】 and struck the Corpse, it felt like striking some incomparably sturdy stone.

Even with the power of the 【 Blood Vein Finger 】, it only barely pierced the skin of the Corpse.

And this damaged part immediately healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Obviously, besides its powerful defense, this Corpse also possessed quite impressive self-healing capabilities.

Xiao Shi was amazed by this.

If he were to encounter such an enemy, even with his strength, it would be extremely troublesome.

Such a cultivator with a powerful Physical Body... is extremely difficult to deal with in the Blood Martial Realm.

Strong strength, fast speed, astonishing defense, and the ability to continuously self-heal.

Within the same Realm, there are almost no flaws.

Xiao Shi manipulated the Corpse, constantly adapting to this state.

He discovered that when manipulating the Corpse, he could actually use the Corpse to unleash some of the means he had mastered.

For example... sword techniques, Formation!

He could utilize and unleash all these means that did not rely on Natal Martial Blood.

However, means related to Natal Martial Blood, such as 【 Blood Vein Finger 】, 【 Blood Refining Art 】, and 【 Blood Seal 】, could not be used.

"Then..."

"If I were to secure a kill using this Corpse, I presume it would similarly drop items!"

Xiao Shi could basically confirm this point.

After all, when he controlled the Puppet to secure kills in the past, items would always drop, and now that he was controlling this Corpse with his consciousness, it would certainly drop items as well.

However, Xiao Shi felt it was still necessary for him to give it a try.

...

At the same time.

Under the arrangement of the Star Luo Territory Lord, an astonishing piece of news was spreading across the Tian Dou Province at the speed of a wildfire.

This caused many powerhouses who had come to the Tian Dou Province to hear this news at the very first moment.

At this moment, inside a hidden cave in the Tian Dou Province, a group of figures hiding in the darkness felt their breathing become heavy and rapid the instant they heard this news.

"A fragment of the celestial compass is about to appear in the Tian Dou Province!?"

They were all shocked by this news.

They knew deeply that in its Peak period, the Tianji Hall once possessed an incomparably powerful supreme treasure, the tianji plate!

Subsequently, in a great battle, the tianji plate shattered, and the Hall Master of Tianji Hall fell.

From then on, the shattered tianji plate turned into many fragments, scattered and lost throughout the Tianwu Continent.

Over these years, numerous forces and powerhouses had all been desperately searching for the fragments of the celestial compass.

They all understood the power and terror of the supreme treasure that was the tianji plate.

Even just a single fragment possessed an indescribable, earth-shattering value.

If one could gather the fragments and piece together a complete tianji plate, they would possess an incomparably powerful peerless treasure!

However, ever since the Hall Master of Tianji Hall fell, the fragments of the celestial compass had gone missing, and they could not be found.

This was the first time they had heard relevant information about the fragments of the celestial compass.

"It is said that this fragment of the celestial compass about to appear is being used by someone as bait, regardless of the cost, to lure out the Hall Master of Tianji Hall..."

"Given the level of attraction the fragment of the celestial compass has for the Hall Master of Tianji Hall, the Hall Master of Tianji Hall will inevitably find a way to get his hands on it."

"This is both an opportunity to find the Hall Master of Tianji Hall and an opportunity to obtain the fragment of the celestial compass!"

Fanaticism surged in their hearts.

If they could find the Hall Master of Tianji Hall and simultaneously get their hands on the fragment of the celestial compass, this would be an indescribable harvest!

"I just don't know in what form the fragment of the celestial compass will appear?"

These external powerhouses from the Demonic Path forces were all full of anticipation.

...

At the same time, not only did these external powerhouses from the Demonic Path forces receive the news.

A group of Tianji Hall members who had come to the Tian Dou Province also received the news.

As a member of the Tianji Hall, Wu Muzhen frowned the moment he heard the news.

He immediately entered the Heavenly Secret City via the heavens secret mask, wanting to see the Hall Master.

However, ever since the Hall Master ordered him to search for the heavenly secret box last time, he had not contacted him again.

As a member of the Tianji Hall, Wu Muzhen could not proactively contact the Hall Master.

He could only wait for the Hall Master to contact him.

Wu Muzhen was very anxious now.

He knew... that the fragment of the celestial compass was incomparably important to the Tianji Hall!

The Hall Master might very likely take risks for the fragment of the celestial compass.

This was the thing they, the members who did not want to see the Hall Master meet with misfortune, worried about the most.

After all, they had rushed to the Tian Dou Province just to protect the safety of the Hall Master.

Now he only wanted to see the Hall Master as soon as possible and persuade the Hall Master not to take risks for this.

Although the fragment of the celestial compass was important, his safety was more important.

This group of people who came to find the Hall Master obviously had no other way, so they thought of using this method to lure the Hall Master out.

As long as the Hall Master ignored them, they would definitely not be able to find the Hall Master.

"The Hall Master must hold his ground!!"

Wu Muzhen prayed continuously in his heart.

Many other members of the Tianji Hall also held the same thoughts as Wu Muzhen.

It was just that as members of the Tianji Hall... they knew better than anyone else the importance of the tianji plate to the Tianji Hall.

They felt that it would be very difficult for the Hall Master to remain unmoved.

This time, the person who brought out the fragment of the celestial compass was clearly trying to make the Hall Master of Tianji Hall walk right into a trap.

This was an overt scheme!

It was an obvious trap.

Since the other party was so confident in bringing out the fragment of the celestial compass, they had obviously been certain from the start that the Hall Master of Tianji Hall would definitely take action!

Now, with the spread of this news, the focus of everyone in the Tian Dou Province was entirely concentrated on the fragment of the celestial compass.

They all wanted to know now.

In what form will the fragment of the celestial compass appear?

Two days later.

Located on a plain in the Tian Dou Province.

Rumble!

The earth shook violently.

In front of that incomparably vast black altar, a door as huge as a mountain suddenly rose up!

This was a door that was entirely cyan.

It stood between heaven and earth!

This door seemed to be able to lead to another world.

And the instant this door appeared, the Star Luo Territory Lord, who was floating in the sky and witnessing all of this, gasped and exclaimed in horror.

"World Gate!!"

"World Gate?"

The others were full of confusion, indicating they had never heard of what a World Gate was.

However, the Star Luo Territory Lord did not explain.

He stared fixedly at this World Gate, his heart suddenly enlightened.

"No wonder there hasn't been any news about the fragments of the celestial compass for so many years; if the fragment of the celestial compass was hidden in the World Gate, then indeed no one could find it..."

"I just don't know, which world will this World Gate lead to?"

The Star Luo Territory Lord looked deeply at the mysterious Black Robed Man below.

He realized that even if the Fate Diviners no longer had the support of the Great Wu Dynasty... their foundation was still unfathomably deep!

Now with the appearance of the World Gate, the next step was to wait for the Hall Master of Tianji Hall to come and walk into the trap.

"Lord, will the Hall Master of Tianji Hall really come?"

Several of the Star Luo Territory Lord's trusted subordinates expressed doubts about this.

Although they knew that the fragment of the celestial compass had an indescribable attraction for the Hall Master of Tianji Hall, in a situation where it was known to be a trap, anyone with even a little bit of rationality would definitely not come to take the risk.

"Do not underestimate the Fate Diviners!"

The Star Luo Territory Lord said in a deep voice.

"If they didn't have sufficient certainty, how could they easily bring out such a supreme treasure like the fragment of the celestial compass?"

"If I haven't guessed wrong..."

"Next, he will go and predict the fate of the Hall Master of Tianji Hall!"

The Star Luo Territory Lord's words shocked everyone else.

"Predict fate!?"

The Star Luo Territory Lord nodded.

"It is rumored that in the hands of the Fate Diviners, there is a supreme treasure not weaker than the tianji plate. This supreme treasure possesses the ability to predict fate..."

"As long as they use this supreme treasure to predict that the Hall Master of Tianji Hall will come, then the Hall Master of Tianji Hall will definitely come!"

After hearing this, the group of subordinates had dull expressions, completely losing their composure.

Although they were subordinates of the Star Luo Territory Lord, within the Star Luo Territory, they were also big shots who held down one side.

But even so, they had never heard of such a terrifying supreme treasure existing in the world!

Predicting fate?

This is too Heaven-Defying!

"Then... then why don't they just use this supreme treasure to predict the identity of the Hall Master of Tianji Hall, or directly predict the death of the Hall Master of Tianji Hall? Wouldn't that be more direct?"

Someone couldn't help but ask.

The Star Luo Territory Lord shook his head.

"Regarding this supreme treasure, I don't know much either. I only know that the predictions of this supreme treasure must conform to certain rules."

"Only within the scope of specific rules can it perform predictions."

"In other words..."

"It cannot predict just anything. It can predict the actions of the Hall Master of Tianji Hall, but it cannot predict the identity, nor the life and death of the Hall Master of Tianji Hall..."

"Furthermore, the use of this supreme treasure has quite a few conditions and restrictions; it cannot be used just casually."

"And the most powerful thing about this supreme treasure is that the things it predicts will definitely happen!"

...

Soon.

After the Tianluo Territory Lord spread the news about the appearance of the fragment of the celestial compass.

Many powerhouses in the Tian Dou Province arrived one after another in front of the World Gate.

When they learned that the fragment of the celestial compass was located in the world inside the door, many powerhouses immediately stepped into it.

Everyone knew.

This time, the fragment of the celestial compass was bait to lure out the Hall Master of Tianji Hall.

As long as the Hall Master of Tianji Hall had ideas about the fragment of the celestial compass, he would definitely come!

For them, whether it was to find the Hall Master of Tianji Hall or to get their hands on the fragment of the celestial compass, they definitely had to head into the world inside the door.

The Star Luo Territory Lord and the mysterious Black Robed Man of the Fate Diviners did not enter the World Gate.

They floated in the sky.

Watching the many people who kept entering the World Gate.

For them, they just needed to camp out here and wait for the Hall Master of Tianji Hall to come and walk into the trap.

As long as the Hall Master of Tianji Hall entered the door, he would definitely not be able to escape.

At the same time, they did not need to worry that others would take away the fragment of the celestial compass inside before the Hall Master of Tianji Hall arrived.

According to what the mysterious Black Robed Man said, the fragment of the celestial compass inside could not be taken away!

On the contrary, this fragment of the celestial compass would reveal the identity of the Hall Master of Tianji Hall.

This was also the only opportunity they had to uncover the identity of the Hall Master of Tianji Hall!

Looking at the endless stream of people below, the Star Luo Territory Lord narrowed his eyes slightly.

Pondering that perhaps the Hall Master of Tianji Hall was currently among this crowd.

Just like that, the appearance of the fragment of the celestial compass caused many powerhouses who had come to the Tian Dou Province to head towards the World Gate one after another.

At the same time, matters concerning the fragment of the celestial compass were also widely discussed by everyone in the Tian Dou Province.

...

Inside the city at the foot of the Extreme Fire Sect mountain.

After some verification, Xiao Shi had confirmed that after he manipulated the Corpse to kill using his consciousness, just like the kills he caused himself, items would drop.

In this way, there was a lot of room for operation with this Corpse.

It was just that there were no good kill targets or opportunities here right now.

Just as Xiao Shi was pondering whether he needed to go to other places to hunt next, he suddenly heard news about the fragment of the celestial compass in the city.

"fragment of the celestial compass?"

The moment Xiao Shi learned of this news, he shook his head.

He felt that he would definitely not go to his death in such an obvious trap!

Others might not know the strength and cultivation of him, the Hall Master of Tianji Hall.

But he was very clear about it.

With his meager strength, any one of those powerhouses was not someone he could deal with.

Going there would definitely be a waste.

Just as he decided to ignore it and let those people do whatever they wanted, suddenly, an extremely strong thought was transmitted within his mind.

This thought was completely beyond his control.

It appeared extremely suddenly.

It made his eyes turn blood-red instantly.

In his heart, an indescribable desire and madness for the fragment of the celestial compass surged!

This desire seemed to originate from the instinct of life.

As if the fragment of the celestial compass had become an indispensable part of his life.

Making him extremely desperate to get his hands on it.

"Damn it!!"

Xiao Shi clutched his head.

Veins appeared on his forehead.

He realized that this suddenly appearing thought originated from the Tianji Hall!

Or rather, it originated from his identity as the Hall Master of Tianji Hall.

It seemed that as long as one was the Hall Master of Tianji Hall, such a thought would inevitably appear.

And it was very difficult for him to resist this thought.

Unless he automatically renounced his identity as the Hall Master of Tianji Hall.

This immediately made Xiao Shi realize... that this fragment of the celestial compass held extremely significant meaning for the Tianji Hall.

But given his current situation, going there would definitely be a dead end.

Xiao Shi really did not want to run to his death while knowing he would definitely die.

The collision of the two different thoughts caused his brain to throb with a sharp pain.
