Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 819 - 819: Primordial Spirit Realm Experts Will Never Deceive You

“It was obvious. How can a Golden Core Realm cultivator hide something like that from a Primordial Spirit Realm cultivator?” the middle-aged man said.

“Are you planning to snatch it from me, Senior?” asked Bi Zhu.

“Not really.” The middle-aged man shook his head and smiled. “We want to take a look at the contents of that book. Of course, it won’t be for free. Considering your blazing fortune, it will have a huge impact if it is not dealt with. The book also plays a part in that.”

“Is there something wrong with the Ancient and Modern Book?” Bi Zhu asked.

Qiao Yi felt something strange. Could the might of Primordial Spirit Realm cultivators be this great?

She, too, was a Primordial Spirit Realm cultivator. She felt that these people might not really be in the Primordial Spirit Realm. Who were these people?

“Materials for the book itself are extraordinary, and the person who wrote it was even more exceptional. What did you think would happen when you obtained it? People, objects, and fortunes from ancient times all come into contact with you. If there’s a gap in your strength, there will be significant issues. People with unstable luck should seal the book when they obtain it,” the middle-aged man said.

Bi Zhu was skeptical. She had checked it and didn’t think it would cause any trouble.

“Young lady, let us take a look at the book. We will help you suppress it and temporarily seal the Ancient and Modern Book. How about that?” said the middle-aged man. “As for your suspicion that a Primordial Spirit Realm cultivator isn’t that powerful… You, a Golden Core Realm cultivator, cannot

fathom how much power we might have.”

Qiao Yi felt these people were insulting her.

As a Primordial Spirit Realm cultivator, she didn’t sense anything like that.

“Senior, you just want to take a look?” Bi Zhu asked. “Of course.” The middle-aged man nodded.

“Alright. You can take a look,” said Bi Zhu helplessly.

The middle-aged man was delighted.

Qiao Yi suddenly felt that the princess was being deceived. These people were tricking her.

However, Bi Zhu had already handed over the book.

“Young lady, you’re truly kind,” said the bearded old man as he took the book.

“It’s no problem,” she said.

Then, the three men sat down and started reading the Ancient and Modern Book.

Bi Zhu and Qiao Yi waited.

“I haven’t finished reading yet,” the bearded old man hastily said.

“Princess, could they be…” Qiao Yi whispered.

Bi Zhu shook her head. “I believe these seniors are good people.”

Qiao Yi was speechless.

Bi Zhu smiled innocently.

She thought that these seniors could even make a cultivator in the Immortal Ascension Platform retreat in fear.

If they used force, she would be dead already.

Even if they took the book away, all she could do was smile and accept it.

She had never faced something like this in the South.

For a moment, she felt that the South was safer.

There were very few major sects in the South.

In the other three regions, there were immortal sects everywhere.

In the South, she had no rivals, but once she left, there were powerful cultivators everywhere. She felt numb.

“Look. It mentions the South!” exclaimed the middle-aged man.

The three of them looked at the book as if they were looking at a sacred scripture.

“Stopping in front of the truth… That’s it? Nothing after that?” The middle-aged man found it hard to believe. “Continue reading,” the bearded old man said.

Then, they flipped to the end.

Sure enough, they found another sentence. “When we meet again, I might be myself but also not myself…’ The three men looked at each other.

“What does that mean?” The middle-aged man sighed.

After that, they returned the book to Bi Zhu. Although reluctant to return it, they didn’t snatch it away.

“Young lady, do you plan to sell this book?” the middle-aged man asked.

“This is for a friend of mine. It depends on her,” said Bi Zhu truthfully.

“What’s your friend’s name?”

“I can’t tell you.”

She couldn’t say anything about Zhang. There were some rules they needed to follow as members of the gathering.

“That’s fine. We’ll help you seal it and suppress the blazing fortune a bit. However, I’ll have to remind you that if you feel something burning in your forehead, danger is close. Similarly, your outstanding fortune might mean that you’ll encounter great calamities in the West. Be careful,” the middle-aged man said solemnly.

“Thank you, Seniors.” Bi Zhu nodded.

Then, the three men turned and left.

“I heard that there’s a new teahouse in the east of the city, and the pastries there are excellent,” said the beardless old man.

“Let’s check it out. Do they have alcohol?”

“They have tea.”

“That’s good too.”

The three walked away.

Bi Zhu watched them leave with a strange feeling.

“Princess, did they really help you?”

“I don’t know.”

She didn’t feel any change.

But if these three men said they had helped her, they must have.

She had to spread the word and then go into seclusion.

It would be best if she could attend the gathering. She needed to ask Senior Dan Yuan about it.

At the Mountain River Valley, Guan Zhongfei was still waiting.

At that moment, he could see a dark cloud in the sky.

The person from the Astronomical Academy and Dole were inside that.

To think that they would cross that boundary together… Guan Zhongfei had never heard of such a thing.

“What’s going on with Dole?”

He could see clearly that people like Dole wouldn’t live for much longer in the cultivation world.

He was indeed fortunate.

It was extremely difficult for Dole to stay alive at this point.

He heard from some seniors that the person from the Astronomical Academy was fighting her own inner demon.

It was likely that Dole might die.

At that moment, some people hid in the shadows and some launched their attacks.

But no one dared to openly show themselves.

After waiting for a long while in the dark, these people came out of hiding when they saw that the person from the Astronomical Academy was indisposed.

Flying swords came at them.

They wanted to make sure the person failed in her trials.

However, seeing such darkness, they felt that the two inside were done for.

But if both of them were dead, wouldn’t it mean that he wouldn’t be able to give the spirit stones to Diole?

After some hesitation, Guan Zhongfei decided to use a magical treasure to try to communicate with Dole. This way, he could at least confirm it.

But it was dangerous since a powerful cultivator was still inside.

He had obtained the magical treasure from the Corpse Realm. He just needed to avoid the powerful individual from the Astronomical Academy and find Dole.

Guan Zhongfei sighed and decided to use it.

The darkness was gradually meshing into the aura of death. If he didn’t ask now, it might be too late.

If Smiling San Sheng asked about it later, he couldn’t afford to not have an answer.

Dole had no influence. He wasn’t someone extraordinary. If someone from the Astronomical Academy was trying to protect him, it was obviously because of Smiling San Sheng.

Even if it was just an act, he had to play along.

Soon, he connected to the darkness using a bead.

He heard the voice of a woman.

“Why struggle so much? The Astronomical Academy has already given up on you. We from The End of All Things can help you..”
