Chapter 397 - 304: Transcending the Tribulation, Doubts
[Just as Jing Xueqi mentioned in his previous life, it seems like the White Jade Celestial Ink had some matters they wanted to discuss with you.]
[You are unaware of the specific time, but at this moment, the two of them seem to have already had this notion.]
[Merely four or five days after your arrival, the two personally retained you, stating that a senior would personally meet with you.]
[You felt a tinge of nervousness within your heart.]
[In the year 11,488 of the Changtian Calendar, you emerged from seclusion in Celestial Ink Valley.]
[You met the senior the two had mentioned.]
Xiang Wuji’s entire body bristled.
His heart started to pound vigorously before calming once more.
A plain-looking middle-aged man dressed in a long robe was scrutinizing him.
His gaze was like a void, and Xiang Wuji couldn’t sense a thing.
But mysteriously, he felt as if he was being thoroughly seen through.
"According to Jing Xueqi, this Divinity Transformation senior likely came when I was nearing two hundred years old."
"Now there’s been a change; I wonder if this Divinity Transformation senior is from the timeline before Jing Xueqi’s reincarnation."
A thought flickered through Xiang Wuji’s mind.
Xiang Wuji already knew, the man who suddenly appeared before him could only be a Divinity Transformation cultivator, otherwise, he wouldn’t instinctively feel such terror.
"Brush"
Instantly, Master Baiyu and Master Tianmo appeared by Xiang Wuji’s side.
They bowed deeply to the middle-aged man in front of Xiang Wuji.
"Hahaha, not bad at all." The middle-aged man seemed to have seen through all of Xiang Wuji and smiled.
"A newly emerged powerful Demon Dao Physique, and yet the Bai Ze Demon Body within is awakening..."
"No wonder... no wonder a Daoist informed me about a Demon Race Daoist lurking within Jinxia Domain."
A figure slowly emerged behind Xiang Wuji.
Clad in a pink and white palace dress, with hair like clouds, and delicate shoulders exposed, like jade and cream.
Her visage was extraordinarily beautiful, nearly perfect.
More intriguingly, her demeanor was ever-changing.
Indifferent, passionate, prideful, calm, intellectual, naive...
Yet Master Baiyu and Master Tianmo were not enthralled at all; instead, they were on high alert.
The middle-aged man’s eyes slightly narrowed before he spoke, "Does Daoist recognize Su Jiuzhuo from the Fox Race?"
The Demon God merely glanced at him coldly.
"No need to probe; it is indeed myself."
"As long as you don’t destroy his cultivation or endanger his life, I won’t interfere with how you handle Xiang Wuji."
"But once his cultivation reaches the Nascent Soul stage, I intend to take him back to the Demon Realm."
Su Jiuzhuo said calmly.
The middle-aged man squinted slightly, then also coldly remarked, "He awakened with our Human Race physique, was born and cultivated in the territory of the Human Race, and is a Celestial Pride of our race."
"You wish to take him to your Demon Realm? Isn’t that a bit too presumptuous, Daoist?"
Su Jiuzhuo didn’t say anything further, just quietly observed the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man suddenly laughed and said, "Of course, this child’s ancestor possesses Demon Race blood as well, returning to the Demon Realm once wouldn’t be too much..."
"I am Xiangg Ding, I’ve met Daoist Su."
Xiangg Ding’s words carried a probing intent.
Bringing Xiang Wuji back to the Demon Realm was Su Jiuzhuo’s bottom line.
Though in human territory, Xiangg Ding didn’t want to unnecessarily clash with a Demon God.
Xiangg Ding extended his hand towards Xiang Wuji and said, "Raise your hand."
Xiang Wuji complied, a drop of blood suddenly seeped from his fingertip.
Then, the surrounding Spiritual Qi condensed in Xiangg Ding’s palm, binding the blood, which transformed into a blood jade.
"This is his Lifebound Blood Token; Daoist, please temporarily leave, we have important matters to discuss."
Su Jiuzhuo’s enchanting eyes slightly narrowed, and she finally nodded.
[With the appearance of both a Human Divinity Transformation and a Demon Realm Demon God, you’ve learned that this Divinity Transformation of the Human Race is named Xiangg Ding, a Supreme Elder of the Ten Thousand Dao Alliance.]
[You are unfamiliar with the Demon Realm but know that the core Fox Race’s Exotic Beasts are mostly descended from the Su lineage, and the Demon Saint protecting you is likely a Great Power from the Fox Race.]
[You quietly listened to the conversation between the two, and now you are merely a small Golden Core Cultivator; in an ordinary Cultivation Realm you’d be a dominator, but before true Great Powers, you are like fish on the chopping board.]
[What you can do is comply with them, striving for maximum benefit.]
[You’ve successfully concealed the truth from Xiangg Ding, for the Crossing All Beings Method is wonderfully profound, evolved from the Undefeated Demon Blood, fully masking your Demon Blood this time.]
[As Su Jiuzhuo temporarily departs, Xiangg Ding begins to marvel, conversing with the White Jade Celestial Ink duo.]
[You faintly learn that the roots of the White Jade Celestial Ink are with the Ten Thousand Dao Alliance.]
[The establishment of the Danyang Cultivation Realm has significant links with the Ten Thousand Dao Alliance, its purpose being to nurture Celestial Prides like you, who harbor opposing yet complementary special physiques.]
[For this, the Ten Thousand Dao Alliance invited an Array expert from Central State, using mountains and rivers as a formation to transform the entire Danyang Cultivation Realm into a trial ground.]
[You know places like Danyang Cultivation Realm are not singular.]
[Xiangg Ding is speaking with the White Jade Celestial Ink duo, but he is also providing you with information.]
[You proactively step forward, inquiring what you can do for the Ten Thousand Dao Alliance.]
[Xiangg Ding gave you a meaningful look and directly stated that the time is not yet right.]
[He will return to find you in the future; this time he was merely passing by for an early look.]
[You know Xiangg Ding might return in a decade or so, when you are nearing two hundred years old.]
