Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1046: Misfortune Arrives

After some time, it began to sink back into the deep sea.

The ship was huge, and there were formations surrounding it.

It was fearless of all undercurrents and swept away the demonic beasts at the bottom of the sea.

However, not long after the ship set sail, two people were in the deep sea.

They stood in the sea and looked at the ship.

The surrounding seawater seemed to move because of them.

One of them gave off a feeling of vastness.

It was as if he was stepping on the earth and carrying the moon on his shoulders.

The moment the helmsman saw the two of them, he immediately sounded the alarm.

There was no need to think too much about it.

How could they expect the people who just set sail to be kind?

After the alarm sounded, the sea began to surge. An invisible hand controlled everything.

The giant ship was under immense pressure.

At that moment, the sea was calm, and the sky was clear. Occasionally, birds landed on the surface.

However, just as the bird left the sea, the sea surged, and huge waves formed.

A huge ship was propped up from the bottom of the sea and flew into the sky.

After that, it received the light of the sun, moon, and stars. Then, it shattered.

The people inside were either dead or injured.

Then, two figures appeared on the surface of the sea.

A woman held a pearl in her hand and looked at Gao Tian. “This is the sea area of Heavenly King Taomu. I can’t stay here for long. I can only help you a little.”

“Thank you. I will personally deliver the items in two days,” Xu Bai said softly.

They did not seem to care about Gao Tian’s situation.

At that moment, the starlight fell, and the people on the ship were killed bit by bit.

“According to my investigation, this ship is filled with people from The End of All Things, but ordinary people have no way of knowing that they are inside.” The woman looked at Xu Bai. “You don’t have any connections overseas, and I don’t know if this information is accurate. And I believe you have an unusual cooperation with the Heavenly Tower?”

Xu Bai smiled and did not answer the question.

“The Heavenly Tower has a certain understanding that the Twelve Heavenly Kings are trying to be immortals. They seem to have a special information channel.” The woman looked at the man in front of her. “If you have such news, tell me immediately. Whatever you need, we can talk about it.”

“Do you want both good and bad news?” Xu Bai asked.

“Yes, both good and bad. Of course, I already know that under normal circumstances, the Twelve Heavenly Kings cannot become immortals,” the woman said.

“Yes.” Xu Bai nodded. “If there’s any news while I’m still overseas, I’ll inform you immediately.”

“In that case, I’ll tell you a piece of news in advance,” said the woman calmly. “The End of All Things has spied on the ancient land in the deep sea. Perhaps it won’t be long before the core members appear. It might be a problem for you. Besides, the people from the Great Thousand God Sect have gone to the South. It’s one thing to look for the lantern bearer, but what they really want to find is a battlefield. As for the location, we don’t know it. But they are anxious to find it.”

“Thank you.” Xu Bai thanked her.

In the South, Jiang Hao felt the visibility getting worse in the darkness.

The people around him also noticed it.

“Is it because I don’t have the Heavenly Eye? I feel that the distance is further than the last time,” said Lu Dong of the Flowing Waterfall.

“I don’t think so.” Liao Jin thought for a moment and said, “Did you notice that the lake became bigger? The influence is also… stronger. That’s why the visibility is not as good. But at least we know where the path is.”

Everyone looked at Jiang Hao and saw him squatting on the ground.

Jiang Hao wanted to leave a mark as a backup plan.

“Senior Brother Jiang, where should we go now?” asked Cheng Yuchen from the Heavenly Joy Pavilion.

Jiang Hao looked ahead. In his opinion, even the Heavenly Eye would not be able to see the path ahead.

Perhaps it was possible to see from the front, but it definitely did not work from the back.

Even experts were unable to use the Heavenly Eyes properly.

The water led to the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl, which was similar to the Blood Pool.

Even Gu Jin might not be able to find his way here.

Even if they could illuminate the path ahead, they might not be able to reach the end.

Darkness was everywhere. Since there was no way to avoid it, they would carry the lamp and move forward.

Jiang Hao took out the small lantern that the lantern bearer had given him.

When the lantern appeared, the people felt strange.

This lantern looked like any ordinary lantern.

Li Ertao asked, “Lanterns shouldn’t work here, right?”

“Don’t be jumpy,” Zheng Shijiu said. “Let’s see.”

The others guessed that Jiang Hao was probably relying on Dharma treasures.

However, if the magic treasure was useful, someone might have discovered it.

Jiang Hao held the lantern in his hand. He was surprised.

It did not light up the surroundings.

He recalled the lantern bearer and closed his eyes.

In an instant, everything seemed clearer.

“Close your eyes,” he said.

He could not see the others behind him.

Then, he opened his eyes again.

At that moment, he saw Senior Brother Zheng and the others again.

They were in the same place where they had been.

“Close your eyes,” he said again.

The others were puzzled, but they closed their eyes.

In the next moment, they could see everything clearly.

There was a pitch-black river by his feet, and there was mud and stones around them.

“Don’t open your eyes. Just follow me,” Jiang Hao said after confirming that everyone was present.

Liao Jin and the others were shocked.

They did not know what was going on, but they were sure that they were on the right path.

At that moment, they understood why Jiang Hao killed those two people without hesitation.

They had no value at all.

Jiang Hao, who saw everything, held the lantern and shone it over the path.

He realized that the water had become much clearer under the illumination of the lantern.

There were some human faces in the water. They stared at the group.

Cheng Yuchen was so frightened that she drew her sword. The others did the same.

They were all shocked.

“Let’s go.” Jiang Hao was as calm as ever. He silently put away the lantern and continued forward. “Let’s go. Try not to get close to the river.”

He was certain that the sneak attack had something to do with the face in the river.

The journey was uneventful. Nothing happened. It was as if they were walking in the same spot endlessly.

The endless darkness made people feel nervous.

It made them irritable.

He felt that attacks would come out of the dark at any time. The darkness would make them their enemies.

Their lives would be like a crack in the void if something attacked.

Jiang Hao was calm. Just as he was about to speak, he raised his head.

He felt that someone was approaching.

The Fallen Immortal Clan was coming.

It was a little too soon.

In the forest outside, there was a roar.

Lightning flashed somewhere.

At that moment, the people of the Fallen Immortal Clan emitted a vast aura. The altar was active.

The old man in the middle said, “I think I almost see him.”

For a moment, the surrounding people circulated their power to see whether they could see the person they targeted.

Boom!

The sound of thunder grew louder.

Just as the old man was about to see it, thunder lit up the sky.

Rumble!

The thunderbolt fell and hit a big tree with a bang.

The tree collapsed.

The power of lightning followed the water and exploded into lightning.

A corner of the formation at the side was split open.

The old man, who was about to open his third eye to see, was stunned.

The third eye began to close.

The other party’s traces gradually began to disappear.

“How did this happen? No! I have to see it!” He shouted anxiously.
