Chapter 523 - 523: Land of Demigods? (1)
Why did he have such a judgment?
Apart from knowing the whereabouts of the Palace Master when this remnant soul was alive, from his current performance, it could be seen that he knew many secrets when he was alive. Moreover, he was obsessed with treasures. He would often use all kinds of secrets to exchange for treasures.
And the organization that could grasp the most secrets on the Tianwu Continent was the Heavenly Mystery Palace. Therefore, Xiao Shi felt that there was a high chance that this remnant soul was a member of the Heavenly Mystery Palace when he was alive. Moreover, he was not an ordinary member. Instead, he was a senior member of the Heavenly Mystery Palace with a certain status.
“This secret is actually a secret of the same value as the ninth realm of the Martial Dao.”
This made Xiao Shi feel extremely afraid. From what Xiang Zizhen had told him previously, he knew that the current Great Wu Empire was controlled by one of the Martial Emperor’s descendants. Moreover, the Martial Emperor only had this one son.
However, according to the remnant soul, the Martial Emperor had a total of three children. Then, which of these three children would be the one in charge of the Great Wu Empire now?
“If the three descendants of the Martial Emperor are really dead, crippled, and missing, then the one in charge of the Great Wu Empire now is either the crippled or the missing one.” Xiao Shi thought to himself.
This could only be verified in the future. He kept this secret in his heart. He knew that this secret was very important. Before he had enough strength, he definitely could not tell others easily.
He could not tell Xiang Zizhen either!
It was because this secret was too terrifying. Without enough strength, this secret would only bring trouble to himself. Especially since the previous Palace Master of the Heaven Secrets Palace died because of this secret. Then he had to treat it even more seriously.
“What exactly is this place of imprisonment? Why is there a remnant soul here that knows so many secrets?” Xiao Shi looked at the remnant soul that was floating further and further away. He increasingly felt that this imprisonment place was extraordinary. He also knew that this remnant soul clearly did not come from the tombstones here. Instead, he floated over from afar.
This must be related to his luck again. If he did not have powerful luck, he would definitely not be able to touch this remnant soul.
Xiang Zizhen panted heavily in the prison. His entire body seemed to be covered in black ink and had been severely contaminated, so much so that half of his face had turned black. The old woman in front of him was temporarily sealed by him.
Xiang Zizhen had paid a considerable price. He took a deep breath. He took out a pill and quickly swallowed it. After adjusting his aura and condition, he walked to the flower core in front of him. He was prepared to enter the imprisonment ground through this entrance.
However, he realized this entrance was actually closed, causing him to be unable to enter at all.
“Could it be that… only one person can enter this imprisonment place?” Xiang Zizhen frowned. This situation was indeed something he had not expected. He originally wanted to help Xiao Shi restrain this old woman guarding him and let Xiao Shi enter first before he followed.
Unexpectedly, the entrance to the imprisonment ground closed after Xiao Shi entered.
This immediately made his heart heavy. If only one person could enter, he could only count on Xiao Shi.
However, Xiao Shi was only at the Martial Soul Realm after all. This made Xiang Zizhen very worried.
He entered the dream world. Soon, the other two people from the Dream Witch lineage also entered the dream world. They did not need to use the Dream Jade to enter the dream world. After all, dreams were their ability.
“What’s the situation on your side?” Xiang Zizhen asked in a low voice.
“Everything is going well! We have successfully entered the place of imprisonment and found these imprisoned members.” The people from the Dream Witch lineage replied.
“How many members are there?” Xiang Zizhen hurriedly asked.
“There are a total of 26 people! One of them is a Martial Demon Realm expert, four are at the Martial Soul Realm, and the rest are disciples of the lower three realms.” The Dream Witch lineage said.
“So many!” Xiang Zizhen was shocked. This number far exceeded his expectations. Moreover, it did not match the information he had.
According to the information he had previously, there were about ten members of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect imprisoned in these two places. However, there were 26 disciples imprisoned in another place.
Then this place of imprisonment…
“Something’s wrong!” Xiang Zizhen’s expression was solemn. There were only so many members of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect imprisoned in the entire Xingluo Province. Now, they were all gathered in another imprisonment place.
Then what was going on in this imprisonment place?!
Xiang Zizhen’s back began to break out in cold sweat. He immediately contacted his master. He wanted to report the current situation to his master. However, he realized that he could not contact his master at this moment.
Xiang Zizhen was extremely anxious. He quickly tried to contact Xiao Shi through the dream world. However, there was no movement from Xiao Shi. Clearly, the place where he was in was not like another place where he could enter the dream world. This made it impossible for him to communicate with Xiao Shi through the dream world.
Xiang Zizhen clenched his fists tightly as cold sweat broke out on his forehead. The anxiety in his heart exploded..
