Chapter 637: Chapter 265: Return to Central State! Encountering Senluo Hall Again!
The fierce wind blew.
Large swathes of yellow sand danced behind him.
Jiang Shi left with an unusual ease, not only gaining three extraordinarily powerful subordinates but also acquiring a vast amount of resources.
Especially the Blood Nether Soil, a full three portions.
Such a harvest truly wasn’t a wasted trip.
Several days later, the environment before him changed.
Expanses of yellow desert finally gradually disappeared.
In its place was a vast and dark plain, where many caravans were traveling, with a considerable number of people.
Inside one spacious carriage.
Jiang Dao sat cross-legged, eyes closed, a hot current continuously circulating within his body, relentlessly rushing towards his limbs and bones.
The temperature inside the entire carriage was continuously rising, becoming both scorching and eerie.
Upon closer look, from every pore and strand of hair on his body, countless invisible transparent flames emerged, twisting and curling like clusters of bizarre little spirits.
However, these flames never erupted with significant power, unable even to burn through the wooden planks of the carriage.
This scene persisted for a long time.
Finally!
Jiang Shi once again restrained his aura, opened his eyes, and exhaled a long breath of foul air.
"The Yama Nine Revolutions Technique is indeed peculiar; after all this time, I still haven’t even begun to grasp it."
He frowned and looked at the panel before him.
In the past, with the {Enlightenment} bonus, he could quickly become proficient in any cultivation technique.
But this Yama Nine Revolutions Technique, he had practiced for three days and nights in a row, yet he always seemed to miss the key point.
The mentioned {Unwarranted Demon Fire}, he still hadn’t figured out what it was.
Every time he attempted to condense the {Unwarranted Demon Fire}, it would collapse at the crucial last moment.
Jiang Dao couldn’t help but take out the black stone carving again, his gaze continuing to scan the ancient text on it.
If it weren’t for Daoist Master Xuan repeatedly confirming its content, he’d suspect Daoist Master Xuan had translated the text incorrectly.
He had never encountered such a difficult cultivation technique to practice!
Line after line of text entered his vision; a moment later, Jiang Shi gently shook his head again, put away the black stone carving, opened the window, and looked outside.
On one side of the carriage, Cangwu, Earth King, and Fire King were riding on Dragon Horses, following all the way.
With the unique Holy Pill from the Evil Dao Sect, the injuries of the Fire King and Earth King were almost healed.
Even the broken arm of the Earth King had been reattached using a Secret Technique.
At this moment, seeing Jiang Shi open the curtain, they immediately looked over swiftly.
"Young Master..."
Out here, they dared not address him as Sect Leader, instead calling him Young Master, to avoid unnecessary trouble.
After all, in this Western Desert, the Evil Dao Sect had many enemies.
On top of that, Jiang Shi previously severely injured Luo Yun, offending the Mo Yun Sect, which could very well lead to the Mo Yun Sect pursuing him.
"Has the elixir from Daoist Master Xuan been refined yet?"
Jiang Shi inquired.
"Young Master, it seems there’s still no movement."
Grand Elder Cangwu quickly replied.
"No movement yet?"
Jiang Shi frowned.
"Yes, the elder Daoist Master Xuan stated that the cultivation of the Nirvana Pill requires caution, allowing no sloppiness, hence it absolutely cannot be fast."
Cangwu responded.
"Alright."
Jiang Shi nodded helplessly and glanced into the distance, saying, "Where are we now, still within the Evil Dao Sect’s territory?"
"Yes, this small area is still secretly governed by our Evil Dao Sect. Once we pass through this plain, we can enter Central State."
Cangwu said.
"Very well, inform me once we reach Central State."
Jiang Shi nodded and closed the curtain again.
Since there was still time, he could only continue practicing the Yama Nine Revolutions Technique.
After all, Daoist Master Xuan was in the carriage behind him, and once the Nirvana Pill was refined, he would certainly sense it.
A period of time passed again.
The caravan slowly traversed this dark plain, when suddenly the carriage abruptly became restless, and startled shouts came from afar, echoing across the region.
"The Underground People are coming, prepare defenses quickly!"
"Damn it, we actually encountered those Underground People!"
"Damn, these Underground People are truly everywhere, hurry, prepare defenses!"
The overlapping cries seemed chaotic, and all surrounding caravans stirred uneasily.
Even Jiang Shi, who was practicing, suddenly opened his eyes with suspicion, and quickly pulled the curtain aside, looking out, "What’s happening?"
"Young Master, it’s the Underground People, a highly powerful offshoot among the Divine Demon descendants."
Grand Elder Cangwu quickly responded, his expression changing as he looked outside, saying, "Not all of those Divine Demon descendants are honest. Among them are several terrifying branches, and the Underground People are one of them. They live underground all year and are adept at surprise attacks, possessing formidable strength, they are extremely difficult to deal with. In our Evil Dao Sect, only the Earth King has dealt with them before."
"Oh?"
Jiang Shi’s expression shifted slightly as he gazed outside.
In the distant area, large swirls of earth-yellow cyclones were rapidly sweeping in from all directions, wailing piercingly, blotting out the sky and the sun, casting the space into a dark yellow hue.
From within these earth-yellow cyclones, bursts of sharp laughter echoed continuously, resounding in all directions, as if thousands of troops were rushing over.
The accompanying caravan quickly formed a defensive position, encircling the carriages swiftly, everyone on high alert, eyes on the endless cyclones ahead.
