Chapter 2156: Fishing for Information
Being exposed by Zhou Yu, the Black Python didn’t blush.He laughed and said:
"Brother Zhou, just trust Madam and follow her lead."
"Madam has always been generous."
"Now she has gone through so much effort to invite you over, the benefits you will receive in the end will certainly not be lacking."
"I know a few things about your Peng Clan."
"The Peng Clan is under great pressure now, and it wouldn’t surprise me if it were annihilated one day."
"Though the Black Soul Abyss has harsher conditions, it is rich in resources, and it’s not easy for outsiders to get in."
"..."
The Black Python went on and on, painting the Black Soul Abyss and Mrs. Mu in grand colors while making the outside world seem worthless.
Suddenly, a thought flashed in Zhou Yu’s mind, and he asked:
"Brother Black Python, I really don’t know much about the Black Soul Abyss."
"What kind of place is it, exactly?"
Facing Zhou Yu’s inquiry, the Black Python just laughed heartily.
"Brother Zhou, the origin of the Black Soul Abyss cannot be explained in a couple of sentences."
"However, Madam will ask for your help in a few days, and by then you will know many secrets."
"Perhaps, without my explanation, you will understand this place."
Zhou Yu had long seen the Black Python’s spiritual wisdom.
Therefore, he wasn’t surprised by the Black Python’s vague answers now.
It seemed impossible to extract information from the Black Python’s mouth.
Zhou Yu could only drink in frustration.
Just then, the Black Python suddenly spoke:
"By the way, Brother Zhou, I actually have a question and would like you to answer it."
Zhou Yu raised an eyebrow.
"Brother Black Python, please ask."
The Black Python scratched his head and said:
"Actually, it was last time..."
"You and I sparred for a bit."
"To be honest, I have great respect for your powerful physical body."
"However, there is one thing I really can’t figure out."
"My Poison Shadow Needle, a supreme divine skill personally taught by Madam, is specifically designed to counter physical bodies. How did you withstand it?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu blinked and then laughed:
"Brother Black Python, you flatter me. I didn’t rely on my physical body to block it, but rather because I happened upon an exotic treasure some years ago."
"It could block a fatal blow at critical moments."
"Sadly, this exotic treasure was destroyed to stop your Poison Shadow Needle."
Hearing this, a hint of suspicion flashed in the Black Python’s eyes.
However, since Zhou Yu put it that way, he couldn’t ask further questions.
However, he promptly asked:
"By the way, Zhou Yu seemed to have also cultivated Dharma Divine Power, right?"
"As far as I know, no member of the Peng Clan has ever cultivated such divine power."
"How did you manage it, Brother Zhou?"
Zhou Yu smiled slightly.
"Brother Black Python, don’t mention it."
"I inadvertently acquired an incomplete divine skill from another race, and I’m not cultivating it smoothly; at most, this is what it came to be."
"Its power isn’t that strong, but not too weak, either."
"It’s typical of being tasteless to eat, but a pity to discard."
The Black Python was clearly probing his details, and how could Zhou Yu tell the truth?
Thus, he talked aimlessly.
And the Black Python seemed to realize this too.
Although he was quite furious internally, Zhou Yu was, nevertheless, a guest invited by Madam.
Moreover, Madam had her intentions for Zhou Yu, leaving him no choice but to endure it.
In the end, under mutual scheming, the banquet concluded hastily.
After the Black Python left, Zhou Yu immediately sat cross-legged, then took out a set of array flags from his storage ring and arranged them inside the room.
This set of array flags was just a simple formation to isolate Divine Sense.
Although it wasn’t very effective, it could prevent others from peeking secretly.
In such a place, there wasn’t much Zhou Yu could do.
To escape now, he probably had to wait for Mrs. Mu to take him out, hoping to find an opportunity then.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Although it seemed like the Black Python left, after disappearing from Zhou Yu’s sight, he turned and stepped into a formation.
The next moment, he appeared in a cavern.
And this cavern was right underneath Zhou Yu’s room.
However, when the Black Python released his Divine Sense to monitor Zhou Yu, he found that as soon as the Divine Sense entered Zhou Yu’s room, it was blocked by a barrier.
The Black Python’s face darkened, and he immediately withdrew his Divine Sense.
Inside the room.
Suddenly Zhou Yu opened his eyes; he glanced at the fluctuations of the formation around him, a hint of solemnity in his eyes, before closing them again.
At this moment, Zhou Yu began to carefully recall his encounter with Mrs. Mu.
He always felt that he had missed something.
Initially, Mrs. Mu came with the Black Python, obviously with a strong intention to kill.
At that moment, undoubtedly, they intended to attack him.
When did they change their minds?
Zhou Yu pondered.
It should have been during the defense against the Yin Sha Qi...
At that moment, Zhou Yu’s pupils suddenly contracted.
"It’s the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder!"
"Right, Mrs. Mu seemed to have mentioned the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder back then."
At this point, Zhou Yu’s expression kept changing.
The Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder was indeed special, especially after he came to the Primordial Realm.
In many ancient texts on Thunder Technique within the Primordial Realm, the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder was considered a symbol of punishment from the Heavenly Dao.
Its power was extremely formidable.
However, the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder that Zhou Yu currently controlled, while decent in power, was far from reaching the level described in the ancient texts.
Once, in the Human Clan Plane.
Zhou Yu inadvertently learned that what he was controlling was not the ultimate form of the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder.
But he had no clues on how to achieve the ultimate form.
Nevertheless, whatever the case, Mrs. Mu probably valued his Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder, which was why she invited him here.
With this deduction, Mrs. Mu’s pursuit probably relates to the Thunder Technique.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu let out a slight sigh of relief.
No matter what, as long as he was useful to Mrs. Mu, he held bargaining power.
By then, he could use this to escape.
Having figured this out, Zhou Yu calmed down.
At this moment, he no longer worried about his safety but instead remembered Bai Shuang and the other two.
Both the Black Python and Mrs. Mu were targeting him directly; as long as Bai Shuang and the other two didn’t wander, they should be safe.
In that case, he would have fulfilled the promise to Clan Leader Jin.
By then, the Primordial Spirit Mark that Clan Leader Jin left within him would dissipate.
Thus, a significant concern in his mind would be resolved.
Having gone through everything in his mind and confirming no issues, Zhou Yu began meditating and cultivating.
Day by day passed.
During this period, the Black Python visited Zhou Yu several times.
Still unwilling to give up, he tried to extract information from Zhou Yu.
Yet, Zhou Yu managed to dodge each time.
In the end, the Black Python had no choice but to give up.
Half a month later.
Suddenly, the Black Python found Zhou Yu and said with a smile:
"Brother Zhou, Madam invites you over."
"There’s an important matter to discuss."
