Chapter 292: Chapter 145: Enhancement of the Twenty-Eight Constellations Celestial Demon Technique and the Great Reincarnation Technique
Thinking of this, Lin Xuankong mused to himself. With my current strength, I can easily defeat even Prefect Liy of the Great Marsh Prefecture and Hua Yanluo, its foremost figure! As for their vast numbers and incessant attacks? Those ten thousand so-called late-stage Tier One Cultivators probably couldn’t even withstand a single late-stage Tier Seven Corpse Scorpion! If I decide to honor the appointment on the eighth day of September, the only thing in the Great Marsh Prefecture to be cautious about is the Celestial Demon Technique of Liy Hongtian, the old gang leader of the Black Tiger Gang! To ensure nothing goes wrong, it’s best to conduct some investigations!
With this thought, he set his concerns aside and accompanied Lii Xiaolan for a stroll in the Secret Realm before emerging from it and standing in the tunnel.
Gazing at the shimmering Spirit Vein Transference, Lin Xuankong’s eyes glinted with ambition. As long as I continue nurturing the Celestial Demon Bone, the world beyond this Spirit Vein Transference will become ever vaster. Someday, it might be even larger than the tens of thousands of miles of the Great Xia Dynasty, larger than the vast Rakshasa Kingdom, and even more extensive than the so-called Central Divine Dynasty! However, until my strength is truly unrivaled, the existence of the Tier Nine Celestial Demon Bone must be kept a secret! Otherwise, the Tier Nine Celestial Demon Bone would make even the Buddha Lord and Demon Venerable of the Rakshasa Kingdom lose their composure. Perhaps even the Immortals of the Central Divine Dynasty would be unsettled! This Spirit Vein Transference should be placed in a hidden spot within this tunnel and not easily relocated to avoid detection.
「Returning to the rear courtyard, the sky had already darkened.」
Lii Xiaolan cheerfully headed to the front yard, calling the cook to prepare dishes for Lin Xuankong.
Meanwhile, Lin Xuankong’s Double Pupils flashed as he looked toward the Black Tiger Gang in the Great Marsh Prefecture. The countless wooden houses and stone buildings obstructing his line of sight turned ethereal, and in an instant, his vision landed in the hall of the Black Tiger Gang Great Marsh Hall.
At this moment, in the hall of the Black Tiger Great Marsh Hall, Liy Ruoqing and Liy Ruo Ying were sitting on either side of a sandalwood table. Liy Ruoqing picked up a cup of clear tea and, frowning, said, "Ruo Ying, regarding the Hill City engagement, Hall Master Zhao is determined to unite the Fifth Layer experts of the Guo Family and Feng Family against the Conical Hat Guest. What is your plan?"
Liy Ruo Ying’s expression flickered. "Hall Master Zhao’s strength is comparable to ours, and he has always been unyielding. Since his son died at the hands of the Conical Hat Guest, there’s no way we can dissuade him. However, in my opinion, since we’ve both agreed with Mr. Mu to change the atmosphere of the Black Tiger Gang, let’s start with this matter! If Zhao Renxiong wants to deal with the Conical Hat Guest, and the Guo and Feng Families want to deal with the Conical Hat Guest, then let them. We’ll stay out of it. We just need to ensure the Stewards and Gang Members of the Great Marsh Hall and Law Enforcement Hall are well-restrained!"
Liy Ruoqing frowned. "Our second uncle has already ordered us to assist Hall Master Zhao. Are we really not going to help him?"
Liy Ruo Ying sighed. "It’s not just Second Uncle; even First Uncle is preparing to go to Hill City! But so what? Over the years, we’ve both nurtured confidants in the Great Marsh Hall and Law Enforcement Hall. Are we really afraid of them? Not unless our uncles truly turn against us and cause widespread family infighting! As long as Second Uncle still needs us to prepare Demon Flesh for him, we don’t need to worry about being called to account... The one we should truly revere is Mr. Mu!"
Dozens of miles away, Lin Xuankong observed the Lip Reading of the two for a while, a faint red light flickering in his eyes. A streak of red light from his Demon Reflected Pupils then emerged, crossing dozens of miles in an instant to fall upon Liy Ruoqing.
Just as he was about to drink his tea, Liy Ruoqing couldn’t help but let out a soft "HMM?" A peculiar expression appeared on his face.
The next moment, a voice suddenly echoed in his mind, ’Liy Ruoqing, I ask you: since your old gang leader obtained a Tier One Celestial Demon Bone, what Abnormal Technique did he gain from it?’
The sudden voice in his mind caused Liy Ruoqing’s expression to change dramatically. He stood up abruptly, looking around in confusion. The hall of the Great Marsh Hall was empty except for him and Liy Ruo Ying; it was silent and devoid of anyone else!
He cast a strange gaze around, then his expression changed again as the voice in his mind spoke once more, ’Stop searching. I am Mu Shiba. Just answer my question; I am not here.’
Liy Ruoqing’s expression shifted indeterminately. "Mr. Mu? What kind of method is this, Mr. Mu, that you can directly transmit sound into my mind! Are you planning something by asking about my second uncle’s Celestial Demon Technique?"
Beside him, Liy Ruo Ying stood up in surprise and looked at his brother. "Mr. Mu?"
Liy Ruoqing shook his head slightly at his younger brother. After a moment’s thought, a trace of determination flashed across his face. He bowed to the surrounding void and said, "Mr. Mu, your methods are indeed astonishing! This Sound Transmission Skill is unheard of by Liy Ruoqing; I am in awe! As for my second uncle’s Celestial Demon Technique... that Demon Technique is called the Twenty-Eight Constellations. It enables my second uncle to summon twenty-eight Tiger Demons, similar to Demon Pearls, all of the Same Tier as him. It’s akin to simultaneously activating twenty-eight Demon Pearls—extremely formidable!"
As soon as Liy Ruoqing finished speaking, Mu Shiba’s voice rang out again in his mind, ’Got it. You and Liy Ruo Ying haven’t disappointed me. In the coming days, since you don’t plan to assist Zhao Renxiong against that Conical Hat Guest, secretly send people to various prefectures and localities to collect Demon Flesh. As for the required funds... I will deliver thirty Heavy Water Spiritual Objects to you soon.’
