Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Chapter 684: Chapter 626: Encountering the Plague God at the Celestial Secret Tower Again

Western Territory, Wilderness Domain.

An extremely desolate place, most travelers here are cultivators, and in the surrounding hundred miles, there are hardly any traces of human presence.

Especially at times like these, it’s even less likely for cultivators to pass by.

That’s right, we’re talking about Zhaodong City.

It’s hard to imagine that Celestial Secret Tower still mingles in these ramshackle earthen houses today.

But perhaps it’s understandable, after all, two months ago, a Plague God passed by Celestial Secret Tower, and then, Celestial Secret Tower was no more.

As a disciple out of the tower, it means they’ve been recognized for their abilities by the tower.

Being out of the tower means having no further relations with Celestial Secret Tower, and of course, on another level, if Celestial Secret Tower were ever gone, these cultivators who left would be the seeds of its continuity.

As explained by Tower Master Su Xingxing, don’t put all your eggs in one basket, because it’s easy to offend people in this line of work.

But damn it, aren’t the eggs still crammed in one basket now?

Ji Wushi sighed helplessly, he was taken back into Celestial Secret Tower.

This means he’s again the one who does the hardest work and takes the harshest scolding like a fool.

He has the responsibility to protect his junior brothers and, even more so, the sect.

Therefore, his idea of escaping alone was utterly obliterated.

After all, hiding alone is always better than bringing an entire family, not to mention he always wanted to go to the Northern Border to lay low.

Now that he’s taken back, his plan to run alone fell through, and bringing the sect along was out of the question.

Celestial Secret Tower Master Su Xingxing always felt this place was far safer than the Northern Border. Disagree? Then talk with Divination Path skills.

Ji Wushi had no words to counter.

Except today, his eyelids twitched even more intensely, so he sought out his cheap master again.

"Master, shall we move?"

In the simple ramshackle house, apart from Su Xingxing, there was also the sharp-tongued uncle Tong Haohao.

So, two people glared at him simultaneously, almost scaring Ji Wushi out of his wits.

"I’ve said it, the Northern Border isn’t necessarily safer than this godforsaken place. Why do you always think of going to the Northern Border?"

Su Xingxing scolded with a dark face, displeased.

Ji Wushi helplessly pointed at his eyelids, "My eyelid is twitching badly today, feeling that this place isn’t safe."

At this point, Tong Haohao stood up with a blackened face, swung his fists while asking, "Which eye is twitching, let me cure it for you."

"Did you grow any sense, really think your Divination Path can surpass the masters."

Not just Ji Wushi, all the elders of the sect had unanimously calculated.

"Here! Absolutely safe."

Ji Wushi wanted to question it but feared getting beaten, could only shrink his neck, cover the eye with the twitching eyelid, and stand aside, aggrieved.

"All here!"

When an untimely voice sounded, three heads slowly turned stiffly.

Ji Wushi was the first to react, looking extremely strange.

As for Su Xingxing and Tong Haohao behind him, their faces turned unsightly.

Damn it, why did he come?

Han Yu stood at the earthen house door, smiling inside.

He happened to be passing by, but not really.

Passing Zhaodong City, he wanted to merely pass by, but after seeing Zhaodong City, he decided not to.

Especially after just hearing the inside conversation at the door, he confirmed more his idea was correct.

The Divination Path skill of Celestial Secret Tower is renowned in the Cultivator Realm, naturally, they are not ordinary people.

Generally, it seemed to only suffer on his side, haven’t heard of other unfortunate events related to Celestial Secret Tower.

Showcasing their skill in avoiding danger indeed has a formidable set of techniques.

Han Yu was thinking if he could use Celestial Secret Tower’s divination ability to locate the array’s eye or foot.

Sure, they might not be so miraculous, but if they could provide a vague direction, it’s enough, at least better than searching hopelessly.

Ling Wuce’s Divination Path eye was incredibly powerful, but too specific; it can’t work for vague concepts or without a target.

Otherwise, the remaining celestial spirits, or Qi Fortune Cultivators, or even array’s eye would have long been found through him.

"Can you help me calculate which positions in the Western Territory are most dangerous?"

Han Yu went directly to the point, hoping they could divine the array’s eye or foot was unlikely, but where there’s danger, certainly there’s a connection with those.

"You little rascal, you’ve gotten brains now."

Even the Artifact Spirit couldn’t help but praise him a few lines.

No need to praise me!

Han Yu responded with a darkened face.

The three on the other side stared at him like they were looking at a lunatic, given the chaos in Central Continent, why head to dangerous places?

Done enough of avoiding danger.

But deliberately seeking danger is really a rarity.

Tong Haohao even doubted if he heard wrong and asked again.

"Are you sure you didn’t say it wrong, or did I hear it wrong?"

Han Yu took a deep breath and briefly recounted the current situation.

Half a two-hour later, Han Yu smacked his lips and spoke again.

"Since I need to find these two things, naturally they can only be found in dangerous places."

The three listened in stunned silence, then looked at Han Yu with strange expressions.

So, is this Plague God now trying to save the Central Continent?

"Don’t look at me like that; I’m not that noble."

Han Yu waved his hand to interrupt their imaginations; he couldn’t handle such a lofty cause for the entire Central Continent.

He was probably just too concerned about too many things to let go.

Help or not?

The three exchanged glances, and finally, Su Xingxing gritted his teeth and grabbed paper and pen, quickly writing down several locations.

"I can’t guarantee that these places have what you need, but for us, these locations are incredibly dangerous, almost certain death."

Yes, their vague predictions could only go this far, like the time the host of the White Tiger with a shovel went into the deep mountains and forests of the Southern Border due to their words, seeking fortune!

"Thanks."

Han Yu took the letter paper and expressed his gratitude; having this was better than running around aimlessly.

Without looking back, he turned and left, leaving the three behind in silence.

"Prepare, we’re heading to the Northern Border."

Su Xingxing suddenly slapped his thigh and hurriedly spoke,

This Plague God came here, so this godforsaken place might not be safe anymore.

Staying longer might bring bad luck.

At the same time, he gave Ji Wushi a rare look of approval and praised him.

"Good disciple, you’re better than Master in some ways. From now on, I’ll listen to you."

The three were about to head out, but Han Yu’s figure returned, putting them in an awkward position.

Han Yu glanced at them with a peculiar expression, suddenly sighed.

"What do you think, if Central Continent is gone, what would happen to you?"

"Numerous sects and disciples are struggling in the East Territory’s New Sea Stone City."

After leaving these two sentences, Han Yu truly left this time, disappearing without a trace.

Ji Wushi felt the atmosphere suddenly become a bit heavy, and nervously asked.

"So do we still go to the Northern Border?"

"Do you want to go to the Northern Border?"

Su Xingxing asked thoughtfully.

Of course, he wanted to go!

Ji Wushi nodded without hesitation; the Northern Border is surely the safest place currently.

Slap!

Su Xingxing nodded after delivering a slap.

"Alright, this time, listen to me; we’re going to New Sea Stone City."

This really left Ji Wushi stunned; if you’re not going, then why ask me...

"Why are you suddenly so heroic?"

The Artifact Spirit sneered in the Sea of Consciousness, referring to the two sentences Han Yu left after returning.

"Rubbish, I have to work hard myself, how can I let these people who spread rumors about me as the Plague God hide at the rear?"

Han Yu sneered disdainfully.

As for whether they will go, as long as they aren’t ridiculously stupid, they should be able to figure it out.

If these Celestial Secret Tower disciples also joined, might they also use their methods to avoid danger and cooperate with the other disciples?

After all, Ling Wuce is but one individual, yet the entire Celestial Secret Tower would be involved; even if it proves effective a few times, it could avoid several casualties.

Maybe, Quan Xiaotong’s burdens might lighten somewhat too.

Quan Xiaotong wasn’t feeling relaxed at all, for right after Han Yu left, reports from all over poured into New Sea Stone City like snowfall.

They all spoke of the same issue.

The State Prefectures located at the edge of Central Continent simultaneously discovered that the perimeter of Central Continent was shrouded by black clouds.

So, aside from barren lands or seas, it seemed like Central Continent was under siege.

Indeed, it must be the handiwork of Yama Hall!

Quan Xiaotong sighed; this did not surprise him, rather he had long concluded it was Yama Hall’s new move.

It couldn’t just be this kind of change.

According to his speculation, there’s likely more upheaval ahead.

Just what might Yama Hall play this time?

The greatest possibility is accelerating the activation of the array footwork, or rather for the sake of the array’s eye.

The black clouds are either part of an array formation.
