Imperial Cultivation

Chapter 1014: Chapter 1010: Mask

Zhou Jiangming listened to his detailed explanation, nodding slightly from time to time.

He felt that if it were him, he might not be able to achieve the level of Leng Tieya.

Courage, calmness, being both ruthless and accurate, led to the current results and achievements.

After Leng Tieya finished speaking, Zhou Jiangming asked, ”Do you think we can annihilate the Ghost Bone Sect?”

Leng Tieya replied, ”We can’t annihilate it.”

The strength of the Ghost Bone Sect is beyond imagination.

He is able to maneuver so easily because he acquired memories.

Though the Great Heavenly Demon Palace has many Miracle Techniques, it lacks these Divine Skills, otherwise, things wouldn’t be as they are now.

It’s not easy to simply crush them with strength.

The most important thing is that half of the Ghost Bone Sect is in the Demon World, half in the Demon Realm, and they can be revived.

Now that he knows the mystery of the Ghost Bone Flower, they still cannot annihilate the entire Ghost Bone Sect.

If they see the situation is unfavorable and run to the Demon Realm, are they supposed to chase them all the way there?

In the Demon Realm, the Demon Clan experts are weakened, and it’s still the Ghost Bone Sect’s territory; if they dare to go, the Great Heavenly Demon Palace will suffer losses.

Zhou Jiangming frowned, his gaze burning.

Leng Tieya candidly said, ”Manager, you actually understand this point, don’t you?”

Zhou Jiangming snorted, ”It seems you know quite a lot about the Ghost Bone Sect.”

Leng Tieya replied, ”If they were really so easily destroyed, they would have been gone long ago.”

Zhou Jiangming coldly said, ”So, our effort this time was in vain?”

”... We can hone the Outer Palace Disciples and Inner Palace Disciples, so it’s not in vain.”

”Sly!” Zhou Jiangming snorted.

Leng Tieya smiled, ”If not for fighting against the Great Sky Demon of the Ghost Bone Sect, I wouldn’t have improved so much.”

”That’s indeed true.” Zhou Jiangming nodded.

Leng Tieya’s progress was beyond imagination.

Clearly, such battles are more suited to his cultivation.

However, the cultivation methods of each Great Sky Demon are not singular; battles are suitable now, and after a while, perhaps traveling is more appropriate, or after another period, retreating for meditation is better.

The cultivation of a Great Sky Demon has no fixed method and is constantly changing; it depends on luck to match the suitable cultivation method at the right time for rapid progress.

Such opportunities in one’s life are hard to find; Leng Tieya met one, making him extremely fortunate, and envied by others.

Zhou Jiangming slowly said, ”The Ghost Bone Sect is too cruel, posing a great threat to us; it must be annihilated.”

”Does the Manager have a way?” Leng Tieya asked.

Zhou Jiangming said, ”Starting from the Demon Realm, find their Main Altar, and then eradicate them in one fell swoop!”

”The Demon Realm...” Leng Tieya frowned, ”Going to the Demon Realm, cultivation is weakened, it’s too oppressive... do we have a base there?”

”We have a Secret Land,” Zhou Jiangming said, ”but it’s weak in power and can only gather intelligence.”

Leng Tieya asked, ”How many disciples should be sent to annihilate the Ghost Bone Sect in the Demon Realm?”

”First, ascertain their true strength, determine how many experts they have, and how many experts are needed to wipe them out, then act swiftly,” Zhou Jiangming said, looking at him intently.

Leng Tieya chuckled, ”Manager, you want me to go there?”

”Why?”

”... You really want me to go?” Leng Tieya was surprised, ”Just me alone?”

”Quality over quantity in warriors; you’re incredibly lucky now and excel at combat,” Zhou Jiangming said, ”Sending other Inner Palace Disciples might not help you but hinder you.”

”Manager, you overestimate me.” Leng Tieya said.

He understood Zhou Jiangming’s meaning.

His key advantage is owning the Breaking Space Demon Device, allowing him to escape at any time.

Even Great Sky Demons face mortal danger in the Demon Realm; Leng Tieya is a Great Sky Demon, armed with the Breaking Space Demon Device, making him the best candidate.

Zhou Jiangming said, ”And I’ll give you a Cloud Concealing Treasure Robe; the two can be layered.”

Leng Tieya pondered.

Zhou Jiangming said, ”Also, I’ll give you a Demon God Mask.”

Leng Tieya raised his eyebrows.

Zhou Jiangming said, ”With the Demon God Mask on, the Demon Clan won’t be able to sense your aura is different.”

”Just the Cloud Concealing Treasure Robe won’t suffice?”

”The Cloud Concealing Treasure Robe can hide your aura, making it ideal for ambush and assassination, and also great for escape; however, at close range, it’s not just the aura of Demon Yuan, there are many auras, difficult to hide from the Demon Clan.”

”What other uses does the Demon God Mask have?”

”Even when you operate Demon Yuan, they will think it’s Demon Essence,” Zhou Jiangming said, ”It’s seamless.”

Leng Tieya curiously asked, ”Manager, how many Demon God Masks do we have in the palace?”

”Originally, we had six; over time, four were damaged, leaving two. One has been given to Junior Brother Hu, leaving only this one,” Zhou Jiangming said, clapping his hands.

Zheng Shanggong, not far away, bowed and turned to leave.

When he returned, he had a small box on the tray in his hands.

The small box, painted purple, was the size of a palm, with a glimmer of ancient and enduring light.

The Purple Box was presented before Leng Tieya.

Leng Tieya opened it without hesitation; inside was a soft scarf.

Moon-white, at first glance it looked like a silk scarf, old and rough, as if used for a long time.

Leng Tieya looked at Zhou Jiangming.

Zhou Jiangming said, ”Try it out.”

Leng Tieya picked up the scarf.

In his hand, it was flexible and light, so light it seemed to lose its weight, floating in the air.

When he brought it to his face, a faint fragrance reached his nose, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief.

He initially thought it would have a strange smell, but unexpectedly, it was so pleasantly fragrant.

He spread it out with both hands, oval-shaped, and attached it to his face.

Like it was magnetic, it immediately adhered to the skin, and in the silky coolness, it seemed to penetrate beneath the skin.

He reached out to feel.

The touch was no different from skin, and the sensation on the face was like being caressed by a hand.

He couldn’t help but exclaim, ”Amazing!”

With Super Sense, he could see his own transformation clearly, no longer showing any Demon Clan traits, appearing like a Demon Clan member.

He had entered the Demon Realm before and killed many Demon Clan experts outside the Phoenix Imperial City, so he knew clearly.

Masculine, tough, strong.

Blood and energy fierce as a furnace; at a glance, he appeared to be a powerful Demon Clan expert.

His cultivation as a Great Sky Demon is also exhibited through the Demon God Mask.

Like a Great Heavenly Demon of the Demon Clan.

He knew that he was currently in the Demon Realm, but if he went to the Demon Realm, he would be weakened.

With this thought, he looked at Zhou Jiangming, ”Can it hide in the Demon Realm?”

Zhou Jiangming shook his head, ”It can hide from the Demon Clan, but not from the Demon Realm.”

Leng Tieya sighed, ”Alas... pity.”

”Having it is already rare,” Zhou Jiangming said, ”It was obtained by a Great Sky Demon through a fortunate encounter. Without it, we would struggle to establish a foothold in the Demon Realm.”

Leng Tieya slowly nodded, ”Fine, then I’ll go to the Demon Realm for a look.”

Zhou Jiangming extended his left hand.

Leng Tieya extended his right hand, aligning their palms.

A moment later, Leng Tieya nodded seriously.

Through the Soul Pearl, Zhou Jiangming drew another Soul Pearl, allowing it to touch Leng Tieya’s.

From then on, Leng Tieya could communicate with this Soul Pearl.

The owner of this Soul Pearl is the Great Sky Demon stationed in the Demon Realm, Hu Chaoen.

When Leng Tieya goes, he can contact him directly.

”Manager, what about Manager Zhu...”

”I’ll tell Junior Sister Zhu, just go to the Demon Realm,” Zhou Jiangming replied.

”Understood,” Leng Tieya nodded.

He already knew of other bases but couldn’t speak directly about them.

Let the Great Heavenly Demon Palace search slowly, with their skills, they will eventually find them.

He wants to be the first to assimilate the aura of the Ghost Soil and the wisp of aura from the Ghost Bone Flower.

If acting with Zhu Qingzhi and the others, he would be constrained and unable to perform effectively.

Now being able to depart is most beneficial for action.

...

By the lakeside in the valley, Chu Liezhao opened his eyes, looking towards a slender maiden entering gracefully.

The maiden was beautiful and gentle, lightly reaching him, clasping her fists in salute while handing a bamboo tube to Li Miaotan.

Li Miaotan lightly nodded, opened the bamboo tube directly, took out the letter, glanced quickly, and handed it to Chu Liezhao, smiling, ”Good news has finally arrived.”

Chu Liezhao asked, ”Is the Yuanzhen Dynasty really going to give up?”

”Since Mother said so, it must be true,” Li Miaotan replied.

Chu Liezhao slowly nodded.

This was correct; the Empress was steady in her actions, never spoke lightly.
