Talisman Emperor
Chapter 2078 Unexpected News
A deadly stretch of silence filled the surroundings, and only a whistling wind could be heard.
The numbers of all cultivators had stiffened while terror drowned their hearts.
If Ba Ming's death was perhaps because he was shocked, Kui Sen's death was no coincidence at all!
He annihilated the Third Imperial Star by flicking his sleeves!
Exactly how strong was his cultivation to achieve that?
At this moment, Chen Xi seemed to have turned into an unfathomable and frightening figure in their eyes, and she was filled with an aura of danger.
They did not dare to act rashly, nor did they dare to take advantage of this moment to escape. Because they clearly realized that escaping before Chen Xi was no different from seeking death!
Chen Xi's reaction to all of this was very calm and serene, and it seemed like she had done something unusual.
“How do you feel?” When Chen Xi turned around and moved back to where she was now, she saw that Ming was already awake, and she looked at him with a pair of pitch-black and pure eyes.
“Thank you.” Ming spoke lightly. His face still looked pale while his black brows were filled with fatigue and weakness that could not be eliminated.
Although Chen Xi had helped him overcome the danger he was in now, he was still unable to recover completely for a while, and he needed some time to meditate and recuperate.
Fortunately, joining the Origin Energy had allowed the injuries within his body to completely heal, and he did not have to worry about injuries to his foundation.
“Is there a need for such words between the two of us?” Chen Xi smiled. In the end, Ming agreed to his suggestion of entering the region within his body to recuperate.
…
After he finished doing all that, Chen Xi's gaze once again led to those cultivators.
He noticed that while their cultivation was not bad and was in the Enlightened Ancestral God Realm, their clothes were in tatters. Moreover, they did not seem like arrogant people and looked like a bunch of bandits.
Chen Xi said, “Now, I have some questions for all of you. I'll let you all live if your answer satisfies me, otherwise ... “
“Senior, please. Please go.” The cultivators nodded and agreed to the succession before Chen Xi could even finish speaking, and they looked humble and fearful.
Chen Xi said honestly, “Where is this place?”
“Mine Grand Heaven.”
“Where exactly is it located?”
“We don't know. We only heard that the Great Sky Mine was where Heaven Dao energy was most dense, so peerless rare treasures were often born here. ”
“Oh, then how did you all get here?”
“Kita...”.
At this point in the conversation, complicated expressions appeared on all their faces, and there was hatred, anger, bitterness, and frustration on their faces.
Just when Chen Xi was curious enough in her heart, she heard one of them speak. “To be honest with Senior, we are laborers who are arrested and forced to work here. So, it might be impossible for us to leave this place all our lives. ”
“Labor?” Chen Xi's eyes narrowed. “Who's behind all this?”
“The Sovereign Sect.” The cultivators were talking at almost the same time.
Chen Xi's heart trembled. He never imagined that this mysterious Great Sky Mine would be under the control of the Sovereign Sect.
The most unreasonable part of it all was that he was chased all the way by the Sovereign Sect when he was traveling to the Ancient Gods Domain of Primal Chaos Origin, he said, and in the end he had to enter the Origin World.
Now, however, both he and Ming had just left the Origin World but had suddenly arrived within the territory of the Sovereign Sect. This clearly shows how unreal the world's problems are.
However, Chen Xi did not think it was a coincidence!
For the sake of guaranteeing his safety during his journey, only a few existences in the entire Chen Clan knew of his departure from Primal Chaos Origin.
However, it just so happened that the Sovereign Sect had been waiting for him on such a path as it could predict the future, and this clearly showed that someone had exposed information about him in secret.
According to Chen Xi's conclusion, the biggest suspect for this was the Chen Clan's Supreme Elder, Chen Lingkong!
In the same way, their arrival at the Grand Heaven Mine that was under the control of the Sovereign Sect right after they left the Origin World was no coincidence at all.
After all, those heavenly lightning descendants from Heaven Godsbane right after they left the Origin World were extremely extraordinary.
Now, after he found out that the Great Heaven Mine was under the control of the Sovereign Sect while the Sovereign Sect was like the guardian dog of Heaven Godsbane, Chen Xi could guess roughly the reason when she thought about it carefully.
The so-called Grand Heaven Mine is one of these places. As a Sovereign Sect that ‘enforces justice on behalf of Heaven Dao’, it may not be aware of the existence of the Origin World, but it will definitely not hesitate to carry out the will of Heaven Dao.
After that, everything before he happened.
As for the peerless rare treasure that cultivators were talking about, it was very understandable. Because a large amount of Heavenly Godsbane energy covered this area, so it would definitely give birth to many divine treasures.
However, Chen Xi did not imagine that the Sovereign Sect would actually capture these cultivators as laborers to help him dig and find divine treasures.
…
When they saw Chen Xi being silent for a long time, those cultivators could not help but become a little anxious and confused.
One of the cultivators was unable to contain himself and said, “Senior, you just killed Kui Sen, you, so it probably won't be long before the Sect Priests will notice it and rush over here ..”.
“I understand.” Chen Xi directly interrupted the cultivator. “How big is the Sovereign Sect army here in the mine? Who is the strongest among them? “
The cultivators were stunned. If the combat strength Chen Xi had revealed earlier was not very great, they would doubt their ears.
This senior before we can arrive here, yet he has no idea how much power the Sovereign Sect has placed around here?
However, when they thought about how Chen Xi did not even know the name of the Great Sky Mine, those cultivators understood a little, and they instinctively considered Chen Xi to be an expert who arrived here by mistake.
“We don't know exactly how much power the Sovereign Sect has placed here. However, according to our knowledge, the strongest one is the red-robed High Priest who is the Ruler of the Ninth Star Region! The other priests of the Sovereign Sect called him Lord Lin Dong. ” A middle-aged man with a capable aura said, “In addition to Lord Lin Dong, there are many red-robed High Priests in the Imperial Kingdom. They managed the various areas within the Great Sky Mine, and precisely because of their presence, all of us who have been captured and brought here have never been able to escape. ”
“Ninth Star Region Master and many Imperial Kings?” Chen Xi could not help but feel a little surprised because such strength could be considered extremely great. Why would the Sovereign Sect send such a large army to guard this place? Could it be that it was just for the sake of digging up more divine treasures?
It's definitely not that simple! Chen Xi pondered deeply for a moment before she asked another question. “Do any of you know the way back to the Imperial Region?”
Imperial Territory?
Those cultivators instantly determined that this Senior before them must be a great figure from the Imperial Region.
“Senior, as long as you can leave this place, then I should be able to determine the way back to the Imperial Region!” Meanwhile, a gray-clothed man stepped forward, took a deep breath, and spoke slowly. Although his clothes were tattered, his movements were stable, and he was clearly a pretty impressive expert in the past.
The other cultivators instantly reached an understanding when they heard this. This fellow intends to take this chance and allow this Senior to bring him along when this Senior escapes! When they thought up to here, some felt envious, yet most felt indifferent. This was the Great Heaven Mine, and it was the territory of the Sovereign Sect while no one had escaped since ancient times until now. So they felt that no matter how formidable this Senior was, it was impossible for him to fight against the Sovereign Sect alone!
So, the gray-clothed man was clearly desperate by acting like this!
Chen Xi noticed the minute change in the expressions of the others, yet she did not say anything and simply looked at the gray-clothed man and said, “Oh, what is your name?”
“I Yea Ze,” said the gray-clothed man.
“Ya Zhe? Are you the descendant of the Eternal Yea Clan? ” Chen Xi seems to be deep in his thoughts.
“Iya.” Ye Ze seemed to be very calm. This surname was very unique, and only the Eternal Yea Clan had it in the entire Imperial Region, so it was very easy for others to guess its identity.
“Then, do you know Yea Chen?” ask Chen Xi.
“Ya Chen is my cousin,” Yea Ze said, and then she seemed to have realized something and raised her head. “Senior, you know my cousin?”
Chen Xi nodded. “We are friends.”
Others could not help but feel a wave of jealousy when they heard this. How could they imagine that this Senior would actually befriend cousin Yea Ze? Their relationship is getting closer now.
Even Yea Ze could not help but be stunned. No matter how he destroyed his brain, he was unable to tell when his cousin had become friends with such a formidable and terrifying figure.
Meanwhile, Chen Xi's eyebrows shot up as she said curiously, “Sekte Sovereign actually dares to act fearlessly and even dares to catch your Yea Clan members?”
As soon as these words were spoken, they all actually looked at Chen Xi with strange gazes, and it seemed like they felt this question was very immature.
“Senior, you may not be aware but the Ancient Gods Domain is engulfed in endless unrest and carnage. The flames of war had raged all over it, and it was not as calm as it used to be. ” Ya Ze took a deep breath and explained. “This chaos could be said to be unprecedented, and even the Imperial Region had been affected. With the Sovereign Sect fanning the flames into chaos, even Oracle Mountain, Dao Nuwa Palace, Divine Institute, and Dao Institute could not escape it and had been swept into this whirlpool of storms. “
“Confusion has erupted throughout the Domain of Ancient Gods?” Chen Xi's heart trembled violently, and she barely dared to believe her ears. I only left for a few years, yet such an incident actually happened in the Ancient Gods Domain?
Why is this happening? Could it be because the Disaster of the Last Day arrived?
For a moment, all sorts of thoughts popped into Chen Xi's mind, and she was a little surprised. This information was too sudden for him, and it even made him somewhat wary.
Yea Ze did not seem to notice anything unusual about Chen Xi and continued. “We all suffered a sneak attack from the Sovereign Sect during this chaos, and we were unfortunately captured by them.”
The other cultivators had sad and hateful expressions that revealed indescribable hatred. Life is like grass in the midst of hard times, so can anyone avoid this terrible storm?
A long time later, Chen Xi took a deep breath and muttered. “If it really is like that, then I should leave this place as soon as possible ...”
