Chapter 1323: Blood Heart Wood
More than half an hour later, Liu Ming took a detour, leaving the city through an alley in the north and re-entering from the south. After ensuring no one was following him, he quietly returned to the inn where he was staying.
After he returned to the secret room, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Mo Tian didn’t say it clearly, Liu Ming roughly guessed the ident.i.ty of the veiled girl in a black robe from her conversation with Liu Junyan.
He pondered for a moment before summoning the Celestial Tablet in his hand.
At the same time, Mo Tian appeared beside him silently.
Liu Ming looked at Mo Tian.
“I know you have a lot of things to ask, but we should go and see the girl from the Huangfu Family first.” Before Liu Ming could speak, Mo Tian said calmly.
As soon as Mo Tian finished speaking, he chanted and launched a black light into the Celestial Tablet.
The surface of the Celestial Tablet shone with black and white light, and a s.p.a.ce fissure emerged.
Liu Ming’s eyes flashed. Although he could use the Celestial Tablet to fight against the enemy for many years, he had never entered the s.p.a.ce of this immortal weapon, Celestial Tablet.
While thinking, Liu Ming flew directly into the Celestial Tablet’s s.p.a.ce.
As soon as he entered the Celestial Tablet, Liu Ming was shocked.
What lay before Liu Ming’s eyes were black and white light. The most conspicuous existence was the black sun and white sun hanging in the sky. They rotated slowly, emanating mighty spiritual power fluctuations. Countless black and white clouds tumbled around them.
The s.p.a.ce in the further distance seemed layered and spanned for thousands of miles.
As an immortal magic weapon, the s.p.a.ce inside Mountain River Pearl spanned hundreds of miles away at most. Compared with Celestial Tablet, it was much inferior.
“The Celestial Tablet was forged through my painstaking efforts. It is naturally much more powerful than Mountain River Pearl, but Mountain River Pearl is a complete set of magic weapons. If 12 pieces are combined, it’s not much worse than Celestial Tablet.” Mo Tian seemed to see through Liu Ming’s mind as he reaffirmed.
Liu Ming didn’t say anything when he heard that. He looked away at the ground not far away.
The veiled girl in a black robe was lying quietly on her back. She was still unconscious.
Mo Tian glanced at the girl in a black robe with a sneer, then he launched a black air to remove her veil.
Liu Ming frowned slightly, but he didn’t say anything.
In his intuition, Mo Tian seemed to have a lot of hostility toward this girl in a black robe and the central imperial where she came from.
When Liu Ming saw her appearance, he was taken aback.
The girl had purple hair and snow-white skin. She was gorgeous. Her beauty was on par with Jia Lan, Ye Tianmei, Yao Ji, and the rest. However, she looked younger. There was a slight hint of youthfulness on her face, but because of this sense of innocence that it made people take a few more glances at her.
“As expected…” Mo Tian glanced at the black demonic imprint on her forehead and sneered.
Then, Mo Tian saw Liu Ming staring in shock at the girl in a black robe. He said with a hint of ridicule,
“What’s up? Have you taken a fancy to this little girl from the Huangfu Family?”
Hearing this, Liu Ming immediately looked away, forced a cough, and said.
“I just feel that this person looks a little like the Huangfu Liushui I’ve met before.”
“Hehe, it’s okay if you take a fancy of her. This chick is not much worse than your women. If you want, I can give her to you.” Mo Tian chuckled.
“Senior, stop joking. Let’s get down to business, shall we?” Liu Ming said plainly.
“Hey, you’re no fun.” Mo Tian chuckled.
Then, Mo Tian waved his hand and took the storage bracelet of the girl in a black robe. He fiddled with it for a while, and he took out the black wood. A black light flashed in his hand. It was the black heart wood.
“Great, with this blood heart wood, it will be safer to traverse in the secret realm.” Mo Tian said faintly.
“Why is this black wood called blood heart wood? What does it do?”
Liu Ming had always wanted to ask this question.
“Kid, watch this.” Mo Tian waved his bone hand. As a thin black light flashed, the black wood was split in half from the middle.
Liu Ming saw a blood line as thick as the pinker finger in the center of the black wood. It resembled a long earthworm that was embedded in the black wood.
The blood line exuded a faint and bizarre spiritual power fluctuation.
Mo Tian launched black air, wrapped the blood line, and slowly removed it from the wood.
“This black wood itself has no value, but its core can condense this blood heart crystals, which makes it highly valuable.” Mo Tian carefully put away the blood line and said.
“As for the function of this thing, it is used for divination.” Without waiting for Liu Ming to speak, Mo Tian continued.
“I didn’t expect Senior to be proficient in divination.” A hint of surprise flashed in Liu Ming’s eyes.
“It’s nothing. Divination is just the opportunity to peek into the future in exchange for one’s luck. It’s not worth cultivating. If I hadn’t practiced the divination technique back then, maybe…” A trace of desolation appeared in Mo Tian’s eyes before it disappeared without a trace.
Seeing this, Liu Ming didn’t ask any further questions. Instead, he changed the subject.
“Senior Mo Tian, you didn’t ask me to kidnap the girl of the Huangfu Family just for this piece of blood heart wood right?”
“Of course. As I said earlier, the blood in this woman’s body is pure. It will be of great use in the Demon Abyss.” Mo Tian said with a cold gleam in his eyes.
“Oh, what’s the use?” Liu Ming asked curiously.
“Well, there’s no harm in telling you. I discovered a treasure during my last visit to the Demon Abyss. However, that treasure is sealed by a powerful enchantment beyond my capabilities to unlock. After studying the enchantment, I have devised a method to overcome it. However, I need someone with a pure demon bloodline to be the sacrifice. The Huangfu family is the right candidate.” Mo Tian glanced at Liu Ming and explained coldly.
His tone seemed plain, but his words were as cold as ice.
Hearing this, Liu Ming was startled slightly.
“So, if you want her body, you can only do it now.” Mo Tian teased with a chuckle.
Liu Ming gave a wry smile, then he looked at the sleeping girl in a black robe on the ground with a trace of pity in his eyes.
However, he and this woman were not related, so there was no reason for him to speak up for her.
After thinking about it, Liu Ming added.
“If you want to bring this woman, we will have a team of five, including you, me, Xie’er, and Ouyang Ming. One Demon Abyss Key is enough.”
“I don’t have spiritual power now, and my life is bounded by you, so I won’t even take up a team slot.” Mo Tian shook his head.
Liu Ming raised his eyebrows and nodded.
“There is one more thing I have to explain to you. When entering the Demon Abyss, neither your demon pet nor the woman from the royal family can hide in the immortal magic weapon or inside your gourd. They must be directly enveloped by the power of the Demon Abyss Key to successfully bypa.s.s the enchantments outside the secret realm.” Mo Tian continued.
“Really!?” Liu Ming frowned.
When the Demon Abyss opened, people from all major forces would appear, so revealing Xie’er’s presence was fine. However, if this girl in a black robe was exposed, it would attract the attention of the central imperial.
“Don’t worry. Since I said that I wanted to bring this girl in, I have a solution. At that time, I will use mystic art to control this girl’s soul and body and change her body shape and aura temporarily with the power of the Celestial Tablet. Other Mystic Comprehending State demons won’t sense a thing either.” Mo Tian said with a smile.
Liu Ming breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that.
Immediately, they discussed the trip to the Demon Abyss and left the Celestial Tablet s.p.a.ce.
Before Mo Tian left, he took away all the storage devices of the girl in a black robe and the magic weapon. He also put a few mind bind enchantments on the girl in a black robe, putting her into a slumber.
However, neither Mo Tian nor Liu Ming noticed that the ordinary green ring on her left hand suddenly emanated a layer of faint light, then it gradually merged into her body.
…
Afterward, Liu Ming did not go out and stayed in the inn to cultivate.
The number of soldiers patrolling in Guang Han City increased overnight as if they were looking for someone. Someone once visited the inn where Liu Ming and the others were staying.
Liu Ming naturally guessed their purpose, but the person they were looking for was in the Celestial Tablet, so naturally, they found nothing.
Then, Liu Ming had Mo Tian change the girl into a burly man with the Celestial Tablet. Mo Tian possessed the body, visiting Ouyang Ming as Liu Ming’s friend. Afterward, Mo Tian requested to enter Demon Abyss together.
Ouyang Ming didn’t notice any flaws. Seeing that he was just a demon at the Celestial State early stage, and a Demon Abyss Key could bring 5 people into the secret realm, Ouyang Ming readily agreed.
…
Time flew by quickly, and it was a new season. More than a year had pa.s.sed.
There was not much difference in the 4 seasons for the Han State in the north of the Thousands Demons Continent. Even in summer, the overwhelming crystal snowflakes filled the sky.
Outside Guang Han City, there was a glacier canyon in the depths of the vast snowy mountain. In addition to the icy cold white air and howling wind, the place was filled with a large area of gray mist.
The gray mist was tumbling nonstop, emitting a piercing woo sound.
After a short while, several escape lights emerged from the far horizon at an astonishing speed. After a few flashes, they appeared at the entrance of the canyon. After another flash, they disappeared without a trace.
Immediately afterward, a few more escape lights flew into the canyon at an unimaginable speed.
Later on, similar scenes kept repeating.
