After leaving Clear Light Ridge, Su Jingzhen and Shen Yifeng did not immediately go to Enlightenment Cliff.
Instead, they went to the Nether Abyss where Su Jingzhen had encountered the demon cultivators earlier.
Even though Su Jingzhen had completely absorbed the Spirit Stone Vein below, thus greatly reducing the amount of Nether Qi in the area, there were still many of them lingering around.
After all, these demonic cultivators found it difficult to show their faces in other places.
When Su Jingzhen and Shen Yifeng arrived, there were still nearly a thousand of them wandering around.
Su Jingzhen then instructed Shen Yifeng to repeat the process he had used before.
Using energy comparable to that of an Ascendant, he wrapped his voice and broadcast it throughout the Nether Abyss.
In an instant, all the demonic cultivators rushed towards Su Jingzhen.
When they saw Su Jingzhen, their expressions were a mixture of surprise and excitement.
“Lord Su, is there another place for us to explore this time?”“Have you found a suitable place for us demon cultivators to train and explore?”
“…”
Each of them looked at Su Jingzhen with anticipation.
Without wasting words, Su Jingzhen told them the designated location in the northwest.
“Once you arrive, if anyone gives you any trouble, find Ji Tiansi and Yan Xia. Tell them I sent you.”
After giving them the instructions, Su Jingzhen did not want to linger.
He nodded to Shen Yifeng, and the two of them left for Enlightenment Cliff.
“Ah? The Storm Eye in the northwest? What is this place? From our previous experience in the Divine Kingdom, it doesn’t seem to exist.”
“Regardless, we should follow Lord Su’s instructions.
The situation in the Divine Kingdom seems to have changed completely this time.
Lord Su wouldn’t harm us, otherwise he wouldn’t have made the special trip. If he wanted us dead, he could have done so the last time.”
“…”
“I hope Suzhen can hold out.”
As Shen Yifeng rushed off, Su Jingzhen continued to look in the direction of the Divine Capital.
Initially, he had planned to rely on Bai Suzhen’s strength to monopolize all the blessings in the Divine Kingdom.
And in the early stages, everything had gone according to plan, with no one able to stand in Bai Suzhen’s way.
No one dared to be uncooperative.
However, the sudden appearance of an ancient demon king was indeed frustrating.
“Your white python, it should have come from Clear Wind Mountain in the Linjiang City, right?”
At this moment, Shen Yifeng looked at Su Jingzhen with a curious gaze and asked.
“Without hiding anything from Master, I did indeed get her from Clear Wind Mountain.”
Shen Yifeng nodded, “Back then, I sensed an extremely powerful demonic aura in that extraordinary place.
Later, when I saw your white python fighting for you, I had my suspicions, but I never expected it to be so powerful.
Moreover, I can sense that her current 11th level strength is not her peak.
She still has some pretty serious injuries. If she could recover, she might be no weaker than that old demon king.
After all, in terms of bloodline strength, the Chaos Celestial Serpent should theoretically be even stronger than the Golden-Winged Great Peng.
So you don’t have to worry too much about that white python.
Even if she is one level below the Ancient Demon King, it won’t be easy for the other party to kill her.
In fact, it might be impossible.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have dared to stay behind and face the ancient demon king alone.
Unless she can’t protect the people in the Luo River Valley, and the ancient demon king manages to absorb them again, directly reaching the level of a Mystic Immortal.
In that case, all of us who entered the Divine Kingdom this time might die!”
As he said this, Shen Yifeng’s expression became slightly more serious.
Without waiting for Su Jingzhen to respond, he continued to speak: “As for us, we have to hurry.
As long as we move fast enough, we might be able to successfully leave through the Storm Eye in the northwest.
At that time, as long as he dares to leave the Divine Kingdom and enter the Luo River Basin, there will be someone to deal with him.”
Su Jingzhen nodded, and the two of them began to hurry.
Shen Yifeng’s speed was not much slower than Bai Suzhen’s.
Soon, they reached the Enlightenment Cliff area, and upon arrival, Su Jingzhen’s brows suddenly furrowed.
He did not feel much vitality here.
The bustling scene of Enlightenment Cliff was no longer there.
Originally, nearly a third of the people who had entered the Divine Kingdom this time had gathered at this place.
Now, there were only about one or two hundred people left.
His heart sank.
Without hesitation, the two of them went straight down to the bottom of the Enlightenment Cliff.
However, even when they reached the bottom, they did not see many people.
This meant that the thousands of people who were here before had been reduced to only one or two hundred, and the whereabouts of the others were unknown.
“Originally, the number of people here was no less than at Clear Light Ridge.
After you took all the blessings, they might have stayed reluctantly, but over time, some of them gave up.
This is also a matter of cause and effect.”
Seeing the scene in front of him, Shen Yifeng couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh.
For Su Jingzhen, this could be considered a boomerang.
He had gained too much from the Enlightenment Cliff. If the people here were truly drained of their vitality by the Ancient Demon King, making him even stronger, it would be a case of retribution.
“Never mind, we’ll take whoever we can find. We don’t have time to search for everyone.
And it’s already impossible to find them all back again.”
Su Jingzhen sighed.
At this moment, they stood at the deepest part of the Enlightenment Cliff, where the Bronze Dao Gate once stood.
Now it was empty, like the most ordinary stone wall.
Su Jingzhen didn’t pay any mind to it. He and Shen Yifeng returned to the top of the Enlightenment Cliff and immediately gathered the remaining people.
Su Jingzhen didn’t say much to them; he only informed them of the location.
Those who were willing to go could do so, and he wouldn’t force those who weren’t. They would have to face the consequences on their own.
After leaving Enlightenment Cliff, Su Jingzhen’s mood became somewhat heavy.
At least 56,000 people had scattered around Enlightenment Cliff.
Back then, several thousand people had already allowed the Ancient Demon King to recover to his current state.
If he were to receive the vitality of another 56,000 people, even if it wouldn’t make him reach the Mystic Immortal stage directly,
It would probably allow him to stabilize at the Spirit Immortal level.
“The deed is done, there’s no point in saying more.
Now, we’ll go straight to the Eye of the Storm. We’ll take as many as we can with us.
We have no obligation to ensure their safety.”
Su Jingzhen nodded; he wasn’t particularly conflicted.
He was just a bit pensive.
At the same time, he was also concerned for his own safety.
And he made a solemn vow in his heart that he would never take such risks again.
On the way, Su Jingzhen saw a few people, but only a few here and there.
And they were all strangers.
He wasted no time warning them.
The master and apprentice pair headed directly to the northwest.
