382: Is this kid doing this on purpose?

As soon as Su Yun left the hall where the Shadow Demon Clan Treasury was located, he saw the central hall of this area suddenly burst with dazzling spiritual light.

Various Law powers surged from around that hall, shooting straight into the clouds and dispersing the darkness of the sky, directly illuminating all the halls within a radius of several miles.

The originally dim Shadow Demon Clan Ruins also became much brighter, as endless Devilish Qi surged frantically toward that hall.

"Such a huge commotion, with such powerful Law energy. Could some treasure be emerging?"

Leng Xirou said with some excitement.

She had thought that the large amount of Heaven And Earth Treasures hidden in the inner layer of the Shadow Demon Clan Treasury earlier was the only Opportunity in this area.

She hadn't expected there to be more opportunities in the nearby halls.

She had also briefly probed the hall that was now undergoing such a sudden change with her Divine Sense before.

It hadn't seemed special then, yet such a massive change occurred just as they left the Shadow Demon Clan Treasury.

"Maybe, or maybe not."

Su Yun wasn't as excited as Leng Xirou; he felt something was off.

Why was there no change in that hall before he entered the treasury, looking just like any ordinary hall?

But after he came out of the inner layer of the treasury, such a massive change occurred?

Was it because he had triggered some Restriction in the treasury that caused this change, or was it just a coincidence that it happened exactly when he left the inner layer?

Or was this a conspiracy to lure him to that hall?

Combining his previous conjectures, Su Yun began to grow cautious.

Furthermore, that hall was not shown on the shadow demon clan identity token.

This indicated that the hall likely did not contain the Shadow Demon Clan Legacy.

Ye Jingchen's life script also made no mention of that hall.

Therefore, there might not necessarily be an Opportunity inside that hall.

"What do you think?"

"I think..."

"Then we should be more careful. Su Yun, are you going to go over and check it out now?"

"No rush, I still have key fragments to find."

"I'll find the other key fragment first before anything else."

"I'll go check the situation in that hall later!"

Su Yun took out a gray stone from his Storage Ring and began to sense the location of the other key fragment.

Perhaps because the distance was very close.

This time, he easily sensed the location of the other key fragment; it was in another secluded hall.

After confirming the direction, Su Yun flickered and rushed toward the other hall.

Soon, he arrived inside the other hall.

This hall was decorated in a primitive style and was relatively tidy, with no collapsed areas.

Su Yun entered the hall directly.

"This seems to be a place where Shadow Demons lived."

"It should be, though the living quarters of the Demon Race seem somewhat similar to those of the Human Race."

Su Yun looked around and could vaguely see a dust-covered stone bed in a room deep within the hall, with several shelves nearby.

After circling a few times, Su Yun discovered a gray stone on a shelf in the middle of the hall.

"This is it."

At that moment, the gray stone in Su Yun's hand seemed to sense the other key fragment and suddenly released a beam of gray spiritual light.

The gray stone on the shelf was instantly enveloped by the gray spiritual light.

Following that, the gray stone in Su Yun's hand and the one on the shelf flew into the air simultaneously and underwent Fusion.

After a few breaths, the gray spiritual light dissipated, and the gray stone fell from the air.

Su Yun caught the gray stone; he saw that the patterns on it were now clearer, and powerful Law energy vaguely pulsed from it.

"Done, time to leave this hall."

He observed the gray stone in his hand, then directly put it into his Storage Ring.

The main thing he came to find in the Shadow Demon Clan Ruins had been found; now he could explore other areas.

He would go to that suspicious hall later.

He could first search all the numerous halls in the vicinity.

In any case, he wasn't in a hurry.

Having made up his mind, Su Yun began exploring the surrounding halls... inside the central hall.

In a certain space.

A black shadow emitting a sinister Devilish Qi waved its hand, once again gathering a large amount of Devilish Qi to condense into a light screen.

It revealed the situation outside.

The light screen showed an ordinary-looking Black-clothed youth.

This Black-clothed youth was constantly weaving through various halls, seemingly searching for something.

"What's going on? Why hasn't this Human brat entered my hall directly?"

"Shouldn't a normal Cultivator immediately come to investigate upon seeing a hall releasing such a phenomenon?"

"Why is he still exploring other halls?"

"Dammit, if I had known, I wouldn't have activated the Restriction in this hall; it's a waste of my Divine Soul power."

"I thought that brat would leave this place after entering my clan's treasury, so I activated the Restriction to lure him over."

"But who could have guessed this brat wouldn't play by the rules?"

"If I'd known he'd search every single hall..."

"Why did I even bother with this show?"

The black shadow grumbled.

This short period of time had already consumed a lot of its Divine Soul power.

But now, it didn't quite dare to stop abruptly.

If the phenomenon surrounding this hall suddenly stopped, wouldn't that make the hall look even more suspicious?

If that Human brat didn't come over, it would be a problem.

It currently had no way to leave this hall, so it could only wait for someone to enter before it could perform Possession.

Thus, it had to continue maintaining the phenomenon near the hall to keep baiting the Human brat.

Thinking of this, the black shadow stared intently at the Black-clothed youth on the light screen and said in a fierce tone:

"Once I've possessed this brat, I must thoroughly torture his Divine Soul."

"To think he wasted so much of my Divine Soul power!"

After speaking, the black shadow continued to stare at the Black-clothed youth shown on the mirror of Devilish Qi and began to wait.

And the Divine Soul power it had collected also began to be continuously consumed.

Time gradually passed.

That Black-clothed youth still hadn't finished his search, still wandering around the nearby halls.

"F*ck, how much longer is this going to take!"

The black shadow was going numb.

Nearly an hour had passed, and that Human brat was still there, searching for who knows what.

The most crucial part was that when the Human brat looked for things, he didn't act like a normal person; he rummaged through all sorts of remote corners, seemingly specializing in finding inconspicuous places.

What left it even more speechless was that the brat actually managed to find some Heaven And Earth Treasures.

Even it hadn't expected its former clansmen to hide things in such places.

This was just too bizarre!

The black shadow kept watching the light screen, its mood fluctuating wildly.

It even began to suspect that the Human brat was doing it on purpose.

He had bypassed the hall where it was located several times without entering, going straight to the halls next door instead.
