Chapter 697: Chapter 661: Settling Grudges_1

"For me, whether that place is an ancient secret realm or an inheritance from an Immortal Mansion, there’s actually not much difference..."

Fang Xi said with a slight smile.

"Sir maintains a clean and noble character, what are your plans for the future?"

Mo Yinqiu asked.

’Qing Hezi’ might have a bounty on his head, but it was issued by the Dragon Controlling Sect.

Recently, the Dragon Controlling Sect has been destroyed, and those who were hunted by it are now heroes!

Well... The Cultivation World doesn’t care about such things, but at least no one will bother Qing Hezi anymore.

Even if Qing Hezi returned to the Mysterious Dark Abyss to establish a sect rashly, in theory, there wouldn’t be a problem.

"First, I’ll cultivate in seclusion for a while, then see..."

Fang Xi showed a hint of intention, guessing that the Mo Sect wanted to return to the previous state of cooperation between the two parties.

Even though no one was openly hunting Mo Sect after the destruction of the Dragon Controlling Sect,

in reality... now that the Immortal Mansion inheritance had been secretly explored by Mo Sect, the attention they’re receiving is even greater than before!

Not only by many Returning to Emptiness sects, but even the Star Sect might be taking notice!

For Fang Xi to meet this person now, he’s taking a certain risk.

’But, I’m regarded as a person of clean and noble character?’

He touched his cheek with a somewhat strange expression.

"Speaking of which, Sir Mo has always been in the Mysterious Dark Abyss. Do you happen to know the whereabouts of that old Flood Dragon and the True Armored Whale?"

Fang Xi asked again.

His desire for the True Armored Whale was naturally because of the ’Dragon Saliva Fragrance’ within its body.

And that old Flood Dragon was an enemy; naturally, he needed to clarify its movements.

"During the battle that destroyed the Dragon Controlling Sect, that old Returning to Emptiness Flood Dragon was heavily injured. Wherever it fled, it would be captured and killed by human cultivators... It was cunning and directly escaped into the Mysterious Dark Abyss, using the complex terrain here to hide. It’s most likely in the Sea Eye Land!" Mo Yinqiu replied seriously.

The three major disasters of Mysterious Dark Abyss are Unfixed Wind, Mysterious Dark Rain, and Black Tide!

As for the four most dangerous places, they are Ghost Gate Reef, Misty Sea, Sea Eye Land... as well as the Abyss!

The Mysterious Dark Abyss is just a branch of a massive rift in the Star Domain, so if one travels along the Abyss deep inside, it’s possible to enter the core of this great rift.

In terms of danger, perhaps even Integration cultivators wouldn’t dare to venture too deep.

"The Sea Eye Land..."

Fang Xi fell into silence.

In that Sea Eye Land, countless streams of Mysterious Dark Heavy Water surge, and it’s connected to an unknown space.

There are even rumors that the rulers of the Mysterious Dark Abyss, like the great fish and the True Armored Whale, came out from there.

Therefore, the danger of the Sea Eye Land far exceeds that of both Misty Sea and Ghost Gate Reef by who-knows-how-much.

"As for that ’True Armored Whale’... It has been frightened by cultivators and now only dares to maneuver in the deeper parts of Mysterious Dark Abyss..."

Recently, there might be one or two human Returning to Emptiness cultivators in the Mysterious Dark Abyss!

The ’Dragon Saliva Spirit Fragrance’ inside the True Armored Whale can dispel the Heart Demon, and is quite useful for Perfect Transcendent God cultivators breaking through the Heart Demon Tribulation to Return to Emptiness.

If a Returning to Emptiness cultivator catches sight of it, they will certainly not hesitate to kill the whale and take the fragrance.

If Fang Xi were that True Armored Whale, he would definitely only dare hide in the Sea Eye Land, or maybe even right by the side of that great fish.

’Things in this world cannot always go according to one’s wishes...’

’I am now over a thousand years old, after all, with a wealth of life experiences and trials from the Mortal World Refining Heart... The Heart Demon Tribulation for Returning to Emptiness should not be much of an issue for me, and besides... there are more Spiritual Objects in the world that can aid with the Heart Demon Tribulation other than just the Dragon Saliva Spirit Fragrance...’

’First, I will explore the Sea Eye Land, three years... at most three years, and then I will leave the Mysterious Dark Abyss to proceed towards another resource-rich cultivation land, aiming for advancement.’

Upon this thought, Fang Xi took his leave of Mo Yinqiu with a bow, turning into a streak of Escape Light, leaving behind this artificial monster beast.

What Fang Xi did not see was Mo Yinqiu watching the direction in which he left, a deep and profound expression crossing his face.

After struggling for a moment, Mo Yinqiu sighed, took out a purple dragon scale from his chest, and poured magic power into it.

A fine crack immediately appeared on the dragon scale!

...

Within the Mysterious Dark Abyss.

Endless streams of Mysterious Dark Heavy Water churned.

As Fang Xi flew toward the depths of the Mysterious Dark Abyss, he also pondered how to find that old Returning to Emptiness Flood Dragon and settle the scores.

The Dragon Controlling Sect had always exploited his remaining labor force. Back then, they even stole his Mixed Origin Heavenly Umbrella and commanded a fifth-order Flood Dragon to supervise him, so he had quite the vendetta.

Now that the sect leader of the Dragon Controlling Sect had died, naturally the debt fell onto that old Returning to Emptiness Flood Dragon.

With such thoughts, he had flown out tens of thousands of miles when his expression suddenly changed!

Within the Mountain Sea Pearl, a Qi Root of the Ancestral Demon Tree stretched out, searching through a pile of odds and ends of spiritual treasures and found a piece of a broken umbrella surface.

This piece of umbrella fabric was only the size of a palm, but it contained a spirit of the device within.

At this moment, colorful patterns emerged on the umbrella fabric, merging into a Mixed Origin Qi.

This was the remnant of the Mixed Origin Heavenly Umbrella Fang Xi had snatched from a Black Water Sect’s Transcendent God cultivator back in the day, which contained the device spirit of the Mixed Origin Heavenly Umbrella!

"Is the main body of the Mixed Origin Heavenly Umbrella getting close?!"

Fang Xi’s Escape Light did not stop, his expression remained unchanged, but his eyes carried a hint of coldness: "Isn’t that Mixed Origin Heavenly Umbrella in the hands of the old Flood Dragon? Mo Yinqiu..."

He didn’t have to think too much to suspect Mo Yinqiu.

After all, before this, he had been visiting various cultivators under the guise of the Wang Family Ancestor.

Only in the Mysterious Dark Abyss did he revert to his identity as ’Qing Hezi’.

And just after meeting this person, the old Flood Dragon came after him!

If he hadn’t possessed the spirit of the Mixed Origin Heavenly Umbrella, he might not have been able to detect the approach of a Returning to Emptiness cultivator in advance!

’Is it trying to strike first because it heard that I’m looking for it? Did it get the information from Mo Yinqiu?’
