Chapter 149: Chapter 47 He Is Definitely Not in the Golden Core Realm [Two updates]_1

Talisman Sword Technique.

The Wind Fire Thunder Trigram Sword pierces through the high heavens.

An immense and surging Sword Qi, like a roaring dragon, swoops through the sky. It strikes the South-West Guide on the Tomb’s Stone Tablet, causing a loud explosion in mid-air.

Rumble——

The flames were still sky high, and the Tomb’s Stone Tablet flew into the Secret Realm, falling from the sky with no one steering, and crashed loudly onto the open ground ahead.

The crack in the Secret Realm completely sealed itself.

As for the South-West Guide, we have no idea whether he is alive or dead after being struck by the Beheading Red Famous Sword. Of course, even if he is not dead from this strike, being seriously injured and left outside the Secret Realm, facing a host of ghosts and Ghost Dragons, his situation can’t be good.

"Young Hero Chu’s Sword Qi is truly strong; it was able to withstand even the Guide Envoy from the Sixth Realm," Monk Pu Shan exclaimed in surprise.

"Hehe." Chu Liang chuckled, then moved forward, arriving at the spot where the Tomb’s Stone Tablet had fallen.

On a patch of grass, the Tablet, now restored to its original size, sank deep into the ground, exuding an ancient and solemn mood. Chu Liang pressed against the Tablet and stored it into his Magical Storage Tool, almost bursting its small space.

The Tomb’s Stone Tablet is undoubtedly a powerful Magic Artifact. The reason why the South-West Guide could act so wildly is likely due to the assistance of this Tablet. But Chu Liang doesn’t plan on keeping it.

Sometimes you do, sometimes you don’t.

"Once we leave this place, I plan to return this Tablet to the Flying Immortal Mausoleum. May I?" Chu Liang asked.

"Of course." Monk Pu Shan answered, "Young Hero Chu’s intentions are truly admirable."

Luo Yao gave Chu Liang a deep glance, seeming to approve as well. After a moment, she spoke again, "Hopefully, someday we can recover everything that the Underworld King Sect has stolen."

"Did the Underworld King Sect steal more than just the eight Tomb’s Stone Tablets?" Chu Liang asked, because Luo Yao’s words suggested there might be other things.

"Of course, it’s not just that," Luo Yao replied, "During the war with the Demon God, many large immortal sects in the Mortal Realm had a Tianyuan Realm fallen. Only the bodies that could be found...there were sixteen, hence the sixteen Tomb’s Stone Tablets in the Flying Immortal Mausoleum."

"These artifacts were originally made to seal the bodies of these Tianyuan Realm heroes, among which eight were intact. The reason for the Underworld King Sect’s surprise attack on the Flying Immortal Mausoleum was to steal those eight intact Tianyuan Realm bodies. As for the Tomb’s Stone Tablets, they just took them incidentally," she added coldly.

So that’s what it is.

Listening to her explanation, Chu Liang finally understood why the Underworld King Sect attacked the Flying Immortal Mausoleum.

The golden skeleton he encountered earlier, which seemed close to the Seventh Realm, already had such an enriching spirituality. A mighty being who cultivated up to the Eighth Realm, mastering Tianyuan, was precious in every aspect, be it their Godly Soul or their skeleton.

Even after death, their bodies remained invincible.

Many powerful beings in the Eighth Realm, to prevent being disturbed after their death, would find an unknown place to be their tomb before their lifespan ran out, so that they could rest in peace.

However, the mighty beings who fell in the war against the Demon God clearly did not have this preparation time. Therefore, the Immortal Cultivation World at that time made these powerful Tomb’s Stone Tablets to seal these bones.

The Underworld King Sect practices Demonic Path Cultivation Method and can make use of both Godly Soul and skeleton. It is just unexpected...they would be crazy enough to target these great heroes of the Human Clan who made great contributions.

"They truly deserve death," Chu Liang commented.

Monk Pu Shan turned around and said, "This time, with the destruction of the two route guides here, the Demon Cult has paid a hefty price. Let’s focus on our current situation now."

Hearing him say this, Chu Liang stopped thinking about the Tomb’s Stone Tablet and raised his head to look at the Secret Realm in front of him.

...

This is a small world filled with Spiritual Energy, green mountains and blue waters. The vast, lush mountains surround a river like a jade belt, and there are palaces hidden on the tops of the mountains.

Below the mountains is a wide grassland, where small birds and beasts can be seen. Nevertheless, the eerie thing about it is... whether it’s birds or beasts, they all maintain a fixed pose.

Unmoving.

"What’s going on?" Monk Pu Shan stepped forward and examined, saying, "They are not dead. They appear to be sleeping."

He gently stroked a bird on the ground with his palm. The bird’s body and feathers seemed vibrant and full of life, but it showed no response. Its eyes were tightly closed, standing on one leg.

"Could it be the so-called Dream Abyss is because of this?" Chu Liang mumbled to himself.

"It’s just a pity that this war broke out too early. We still don’t know what exactly these people from Demon Cult are looking for." Luo Yao said.

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a gloomy response: "Well then, I shall tell you..."

Pop.

The moment the voice fell, a black hand suddenly emerged from the ground beneath her, grabbing her ankle.

Luo Yao shuddered, immobilized. She was very familiar with this sensation. It was this kind of thorn, similar to the Soul Piercing Nail, that had previously controlled her.

This was a form of spiritual restraint.

"Who’s there?" Chu Liang and Pu Shan immediately readied themselves for any possible attack.

They saw a figure emerge slowly from the ground beneath Luo Yao’s feet, gradually forming the shape of South Route Guide, standing behind Luo Yao, clenching his hand around her throat.

Earlier, he was the first to disappear into the secret realm. The three of them just thought that he had left for other places. They didn’t think he was hidden at the entrance all this time!

What they didn’t expect was that the South Route Guide stayed hidden at the entrance for a reason. If the Southwest Guide had pursued him, he would have left before the secret realm was sealed off, thus shaking off pursuit.

But he ran into the three of them here.

"I really didn’t expect..." The South Route Guide darkly laughed, "The Marquis always brags about the security of the Soul Summoning Order, yet there are so many infiltrated spies."

"It’s just a misunderstanding." Chu Liang said, "Let her go, we’ll leave and won’t interfere with Lord Guide Envoy’s treasure hunt."

"Do I look like a fool to you?" The South Route Guide looked at him strangely.

"Ha ha!" Monk Pu Shan suddenly let out a big laugh, stepping forward and saying, "Lord Guide Envoy, in fact, I am a counter-spy hidden within these two infiltrators to expose their plot..."

"Shut up, and get out!" The South Route Guide straightforwardly cursed.

"Oh." Monk Pu Shan came to a halt.

"Stop playing tricks on me, behave yourself, do something for me, and I won’t hurt this girl." South Route Guide said.

"Fine." Chu Liang nodded.

"You, head toward the mountain first, until the palace!" South Route Guide signaled towards the palace on top of the mountain with his gaze.

Chu Liang and Monk Pu Shan had no choice but to move, stepping towards the top of the mountain.

South Route Guide, holding Luo Yao hostage, followed behind them saying, "You must know that I have been seriously injured. There may be some troublesome issues ahead, and I’m afraid I will need to trouble you."

Chu Liang could not help but frown, "Lord Guide Envoy, aren’t you giving us too much credit? If it’s trouble that you can’t deal with, how could we handle it?"

"Hehe." South Route Guide sneered, looking at Chu Liang with a wise gaze, "You don’t need to pretend. I know you’re powerful. The one who killed the black-clad man in the fog...that was you, wasn’t it? You’re more than capable!"

Chu Liang’s sword attack against the Southwest Guide earlier was clearly witnessed and remembered by him. In fact, if not for fearing Chu Liang’s strength and wanting to make use of him, he would have eliminated these three a while back.

Even though he was seriously injured, eliminating three Golden Core Realm warriors would be effortless for him. The reason why he didn’t do it was because Chu Liang was exceptionally powerful.

This young man is definitely not in the Golden Core Realm!
