Nine Regions Sword Emperor

This is why Chu Fengmian truly saw through Elder Baiyang's true nature.

No wonder Elder Baiyang's disguise was so flawless. As a disciple of the Pill Emperor, he had already defected to Shadow City without being detected.

All of this is because of the Heavenly Concealment Divine Body.

And why does Elder Baiyang never make a move in the Pill Valley?

Others simply believed that Elder Baiyang was so engrossed in alchemy that he was not skilled in martial arts, and therefore never engaged in combat with others.

Now it seems that Elder Baiyang was worried about his identity being exposed, so he deliberately made very few moves to avoid others noticing his identity.

Although the Heavenly Concealment Divine Body has the ability to hide its own power, it will become ineffective once a martial artist takes the initiative to attack.

Elder Baiyang's disguise was so flawless. If he hadn't underestimated Chu Fengmian and plotted against him, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation.

Thinking of this, Chu Fengmian couldn't help but sigh. The strength and power of Shadow City were far greater than Chu Fengmian had imagined.

Shadow City has spies among all the forces in the Other Shore Era.

Even Elder Baiyang, who is considered a high-ranking member of the Dan Valley, is still a member of Shadow City and serves Shadow City.

This is only what Chu Fengmian has discovered so far. There are still countless more Shadow City warriors hidden deep within various forces, who remain concealed and do not make their move.

Once Shadow City truly makes its move and reveals its immense and ferocious nature, these warriors will be enough to plunge all forces in the Other Shore Era into chaos.

Chu Fengmian also vaguely understood why the Other Shore Era, which seemed so peaceful and powerful, was ultimately destroyed and reduced to ruins in a single day.

Although the current Otherworld Era looks glamorous, it is actually riddled with holes and is much more dilapidated than it appears on the surface.

Chu Fengmian wasn't sure if what he was doing would change anything, but in any case, he wouldn't sit idly by and watch Shadow City grow bigger.

"Tell me, what exactly does Shadow City want to do?"

Chu Fengmian looked at Elder Baiyang expressionlessly and spoke calmly.

"If you are willing to cooperate with me obediently, I can give you a chance."

Elder Baiyang has a special identity. Although he belongs to the Rock People clan, he has joined the Pill Valley and become a disciple of the Pill Valley. In addition, his alchemy skills are enough to rank him among the top three in the Pill Valley.

Such a person could not possibly be unknown in Shadow City; he is very likely a high-ranking member of Shadow City who knows many of its secrets. Chu Fengmian also intends to get some useful information from Elder Baiyang.

"I'm going to kill you! You won't be arrogant for long! Soon! Soon you will surely die! Shadow City will not let you go!"

"It won't be long before I break the seal! And you will surely die!"

Faced with Chu Fengmian's question, Elder Baiyang roared angrily, cursing incessantly, seemingly having no intention of obeying.

Since that's the case, Chu Fengmian decided not to waste any more time with Elder Baiyang. He waved his hand and slammed it down from mid-air.

The jade talisman in front of Elder Baiyang shattered with a crash.

Without the protection of the jade talisman.

Elder Baiyang was ultimately just a transcendent being at the level of a king or marquis.

Even if he was hiding part of his strength, and his true strength wasn't as weak as the rumors suggested, it made no difference in front of Chu Fengmian. Without the protection of the jade talisman, Elder Baiyang was powerless to resist the power of the World Sword. Almost instantly, his figure was engulfed by the sword light, his aura vanished, and he was immediately suppressed by Chu Fengmian within his own world.

With Elder Baiyang suppressed, there were no other martial artists in this underground world besides Chu Fengmian.

All the warriors of the Rockman clan have been suppressed by Chu Fengmian within his own world and transformed into Chu Fengmian's power.

"Let's go."

After taking all the treasures from the Rock People's treasury, Chu Fengmian got up, ready to leave this underground world.

Suddenly, Chu Fengmian seemed to remember something and stopped walking.

Chu Fengmian originally came to this underground world to protect Elder Baiyang, but unexpectedly discovered Elder Baiyang's true identity.

Now that Elder Baiyang has been suppressed by Chu Fengmian, his agreement has naturally come to an end.

Originally, Chu Fengmian planned to fulfill his agreement with Elder Baiyang before finding a quiet and safe place to devour the True Origin Emperor Pill.

Now, this underground world is a quiet and safe place. This place belongs to the Rock People race, but now the Rock People race has been wiped out by Chu Fengmian.

This place is the safest now. In addition, this underground world is hidden deep underground. Even if it causes anomalies in the world, it will not be noticed by the outside world if one devours the True Source Emperor Pill here.

Thinking of this, Chu Fengmian did not leave immediately, but instead chose to sit cross-legged on the ground.

With a thought, Chu Fengmian opened his spatial ring and took out a jade bottle from it.

The jade bottle contained the True Origin Emperor Pill, which was also Chu Fengmian's ultimate goal in traveling thousands of miles to the Central Plains Pill Valley.

"True Origin Emperor Pill".

When Chu Fengmian looked at the True Origin Emperor Pill, a hint of anticipation appeared in his eyes.

The legendary Emperor Pill, personally refined by the Pill Emperor, is said to be able to enable Chu Fengmian to successfully cultivate the True Origin Path with the remaining two primordial powers within him.

Chu Fengmian's heart was filled with anticipation.

The method of absorbing the True Source Emperor Pill is not much different from that of the True Source Purification Pill in terms of power.

The True Origin Emperor Pill is essentially a True Origin Purification Pill with power increased countless times. For Chu Fengmian, who had devoured more than a dozen True Origin Purification Pills, this was a significant improvement.

Devouring this True Origin Emperor Pill was something he was very familiar with.

Chu Fengmian opened his mouth, and the True Origin Emperor Pill rolled out of the jade bottle and into his mouth.

The True Origin Emperor Pill melted upon entering his mouth, instantly transforming into streams of pure power that surged into Chu Fengmian's body.

"What a huge power!"

In an instant, Chu Fengmian realized the immense power of the True Origin Emperor Pill, far surpassing that of the True Origin Purification Pill.

In the instant it was absorbed, the medicinal power of the True Origin Emperor Pill was already several times that of the True Origin Purification Pill. (End of Chapter)
