Chapter 425 Ch 425: Land of Celestial Glory
Having no idea about the whereabouts of the remaining two Masters of Chaos of the Hall of Sin, Ling Xiaolong could only turn to the Hundred Leaves Association.
First of all, the Hundred Leaves Association was a famous assassin force with more than ten Masters of Chaos. They were very famous and only forces such as the Wang Family could dare to go against them.
Secondly, the Hundred Leaves Association accepted a mission to kill him. So, it was very natural for Ling Xiaolong to target this association as well.
So, he set his eyes on the Hundred Leaves Association and decided to obliterate this force from the root.
Guided by the memories of the Dark Mist Emperor, Ling Xiaolong soon arrived at the White Bone Ridge. From this vantage point, he could see a towering pagoda. This pagoda was the Hundred Leaves Association.
Ling Xiaolong teleported directly inside the pagoda and released his Divine Sense.
Although Divine Sense could be detected by Masters of Chaos, Ling Xiaolong was not afraid. If the opponent is too powerful, he would simply start running again by continuously teleporting.
By coming to the Hundred Leaves Association, Ling Xiaolong's goal was simple. All he wanted was the annihilation of this assassination force.
Ling Xiaolong scanned the entire pagoda with his strong Divine Sense that had been strengthened after he devoured the soul of the Dark Mist Emperor. He detected hundreds of Celestial Beings but did not find a single Master of Chaos.
"This is perfect!"
Ling Xiaolong's eyes gleamed brightly.
There was no Master of Chaos, so it was a perfect opportunity to lay the Boundless Desolation Sword Formation.
Unknown to Ling Xiaolong, all Masters of Chaos of the Hundred Leaves Association had gone out, following the order of the Hundred Leaves Emperor, to hunt him down.
Before starting to set up the formation, Ling Xiaolong killed every assassin present in the Hundred Leaves Association.
Killing them was not difficult for the current him. He used the "Soul Destruction" ability to directly destroy their souls.
After getting rid of all Masters of Chaos, Ling Xiaolong started setting the formation. When he was done with the formation, he went to the nearest city and gave a few benefits to a small family there, using their mouths to spread the news about the murder of hundreds of assassins of the Hundred Leaves Association.
He was hoping for the news to reach the ears of the Hundred Leaves Emperor so that he could hurry back to the Hundred Leaves Association with other Masters of Chaos.
The wait was not easy. Ling Xiaolong was bored for the next two days, having nothing to do.
On the third day, he suddenly sensed several people flying at an incredible speed toward the Hundred Leaves Association. That speed was marvelous.
Ling Xiaolong knew that the Hundred Leaves Emperor was coming. He got ready to activate the formation.
Very soon, more than ten Masters of Chaos appeared in his line of sight. As he had expected, Hundred Leaves Emperor heard the rumors and hurried back to the headquarters with other Masters of Chaos.
Their speed was truly too fast. In the blink of an eye, they had already arrived in front of the Hundred Leaves Association.
All of a sudden, everyone felt a cold chill running down their spine. They felt a great danger, great enough to swallow their lives. They wanted to retreat, but unfortunately, it was already too late.
Ling Xiaolong activated the formation, trapping them all. Following that, a rain of swords fell from the sky, reaping everyone's life including the life of the Hundred Leaves Emperor in less than three minutes.
Making sure that everyone was killed, Ling Xiaolong deactivated the formation. Before the Dao Tree could appear, he hurriedly arrived in front of the Hundred Leaves Emperor and took away his spatial ring.
Inside the spatial ring, he soon located the treasure that could help a Master of Chaos advance from Level 10 to Level 11 in one go.
"Luminous Rose Crystal Berry!"
Ling Xiaolong muttered, his eyes flashing with light. He kept the Luminous Rose Crystal Berry in his spatial ring.
It was also at this time the Dao Tree appeared and swallowed the corpses of every Master of Chaos.
A few days later, Ling Xiaolong boarded the Grand Void Merchant Ship and left the Land of Thousand Gold.
His next destination was the Land of Celestial Glory.
.....
Six months later, the merchant ship finally arrived at the vicinity of the Land of Celestial Glory.
During these six months, Ling Xiaolong advanced to the Ninth Stage of the Celestial Sovereign Realm by swallowing many treasures.
At this time, a clear voice rang out and spread throughout the merchant ship.
"Respected passengers, we are about to enter the Land of Celestial Glory. We will land in half a day's time. Please prepare in advance to disembark."
The Land of Celestial Glory was famous very famous, mainly for its "God Valleys". There are several God Valleys in this Land, but the most famous are only three—Eternal Flame God Valley, Heavenly Thunder God Valley, and Exalted Spirit God Valley.
The place where the Grand Void Merchant Ship was about to land was under the jurisdiction of Eternal Flame God Valley.
The Eternal Flame God Valley was controlled by a famous clan called Eternal Flame Clan.
Warriors of the Eternal Flame Clan generally don't have a powerful body, however, they possess innate divine fire and an extremely powerful bloodline.
There was no lack of Masters of Chaos in the Eternal Flame Clan.
Emperor Flame Sect was a force created by a member of the Eternal Flame Clan. Later, it separated from the clan, however, the connection this force had with the main bloodline was not weak. If it ever falls at a disadvantage, the Eternal Flame Clan always comes to give a hand.
However, the current Emperor Flame Sect was in a state of chaos.
In a large hall, the leader of the Emperor Flame Sect, who was also the number one expert in this sect was shouting, "Have you found that woman? Don't tell me she sneaked out again!"
Besides the leader of the Emperor Flame Sect, a handsome young man had a guilty expression on his face. Facing the furious leader, he shrank his head.
On the other side, there was a Master of Chaos, sweating profusely. He hurriedly said, "Sect Master, we've searched the entire sect, but we still couldn't find her. Could it be that she has slipped out of the sect?"
The leader of the Emperor Flame Sect was called Crimson Fury Emperor. Currently, his eyes were wide open in anger, looking extremely ferocious.
Indeed, the next moment, Crimson Fury Emperor's thunderous voice roared: "I just went out for a few hours, how could you all allow her to escape? What were you all doing?"
The Emperor Flame Sect was located in a pocket dimension somewhere within the Eternal Flame God Valley. Because they were in another space, leaving this space was not something that could be done easily.
"I... I don't know what happened. We were clearly here, keeping an eye on her. I... I have no idea how she escaped."
Crimson Fury Emperor was startled for a second, then he angrily turned around and glared at the young man. "Su Yan..."
The young man shrank his head in fear. After a while, he suppressed the fear in his heart and finally raised his head with great courage. He smiled apologetically and said, "Father, don't worry. I will personally go out with a few elders to look for her. I promise to bring her back no matter what!"
Crimson Fury Emperor snorted coldly and tried to calm his anger. As long as he was silent, no one dared to say a word.
A few minutes later, the Crimson Fury Emperor spoke, "There is substantial evidence indicating that Ling Xiaolong has returned. That woman is his sole weakness. If we have her under our control, we can manipulate Ling Xiaolong as well. We can coerce him into willingly surrendering his treasures to us, and even kill him and he will not dare to resist. However, this is only feasible if we have that woman in our grasp."
"No matter what happens, bring me that woman."
The young man called Su Yan nodded seriously and said, "Yes, father."
.....
In the western region of the Eternal Flame God Valley, Ling Xiaolong immediately flew out after disembarking from the ship.
Since he had come to the Land of Celestial Glory, the first thing Ling Xiaolong needed to do was to gather information.
According to Ling Xiaolong #1, Divine Craftsman Feng Zhiling is living in seclusion, hiding in a small village at the corner of the Three Realm Empire.
Ling Xiaolong has no idea where this Three Realm Empire was located. So, he has to first obtain information about this place. Then he has to also see if he can find information about Divine Craftsman Feng Zhiling.
Ling Xiaolong asked around and came to know that everything in this place was controlled by the Emperor Flame Sect. If he wants to obtain important pieces of information such as the information about Divine Craftsman Feng Zhiling, he has to visit the Emperor Flame Sect.
