Chapter 353 After the Shocking Change, Waiting for the Rabbit to Run into the Tree Stump
Beyond the Great Xia world.
The Meizu's Nüying is hiding in a mysterious treasure in the void, waiting for a message.
After learning about the Water of the Demon Abyss, Nü Ying originally intended to hide in the shadows, watch the tigers fight from the sidelines, and then quietly make her move when the various forces were fighting fiercely, hoping to gain some benefits from it.
But the fact that the parasitic tribe had gone to such great lengths this time was completely unexpected.
They not only dispatched numerous experts at the Nascent Soul and Body Integration stages, but also had Si Que, an unparalleled archer, in command.
This infamous demon king is as powerful as three Mahayana cultivators of the same level, and his magical artifact, the Life-Severing Bow, is terrifying.
With such a formidable lineup, they would be more than capable of attacking even some large sects.
In order to travel as quickly as possible, the Parasitic Clan even went so far as to use the Void Devouring Beasts. These beasts possessed the supernatural ability to traverse the void, greatly shortening their travel time.
In this way, Nyoei and the Ju clan were left far behind.
However, the Jiu Clan was not to be outdone and also used secret techniques to rush to the coordinates.
Faced with such a powerful opponent, Nyoei had no choice but to abandon her idea of taking advantage of the chaos.
In the face of absolute power, any clever tricks are futile.
So she hid herself in the treasure and waited quietly for news.
That high-ranking friend from the Jiu clan was her only hope at this moment; she believed that he would surely send her some useful information.
The legend of the Demon Abyss Water is widely circulated, and its strangeness is widely praised, but it may not be of much concern to a peerless powerhouse like Si Que, who is second only to a Demon Lord in the Tribulation Transcending stage.
This unfamiliar lower realm must hold a deeper, more alluring secret, which is why she would personally take action.
Nu Ying waited patiently in the Void Treasure, and finally, the sound transmission stone began to flicker with a faint light.
However, when the words of that high-ranking member of the Jiu clan reached her ears through the sound transmission stone, they were like thunderclaps exploding in her heart.
The more she listened, the more shocked she became. Her expression changed from doubt to astonishment, and then from astonishment to disbelief.
"You mean, someone actually dared to anger the Parasitic Plague God, and thus ended up on the Parasitic Clan's kill list? Isn't that just courting death?" Nü Ying's voice trembled slightly, unable to hide her shock.
"Not only that, but that person also relied on the Heavenly Dao's merits to protect himself, and even surrounded by powerful members of the Parasitic Clan, he actually survived the Nascent Soul Tribulation. He even escaped from the arrows of Si Que, a person with divine archery skills. The Chain Star Network was unable to stop him?"
She subconsciously repeated it to herself, wanting to seek confirmation from the other party, feeling incredulous.
"What's even more shocking is that the person also seems to possess a Chinese Paladin sword."
The words of the Jiu Clan's high-ranking members struck Nü Ying like a heavy hammer, plunging her into complete shock.
Her eyes gleamed with a complex light, a mixture of surprise, contemplation, barely suppressed curiosity, and a restless desire.
"Could there really be such an extraordinary person in this world?" she wondered to herself.
How exactly did she anger the god of plague?
Despite being hunted down by the parasitic race, he still lived a carefree life, relying on the protection of the Heavenly Dao's merits to survive the extremely dangerous Nascent Soul Tribulation.
Nu Ying murmured to herself, "I have also heard of Si Que's archery skills. The power of the Life-Severing Bow is enough to pierce through the void, ranking among the top in the Demon Realm."
Recalling the various legends about Si Que and the Broken Life Bow, she exclaimed in amazement, "This person was able to escape from his arrows and even evade the Star-Locking Net's blockade. This ability is truly astonishing."
The news that she supposedly possessed a magical sword was even more unbelievable to her.
The Immortal Sword is a legendary existence, capable of cleaving through the void and transcending reincarnation.
There are countless magical artifacts in the vast universe that are called "Immortal Swords," but most of them are just empty names with exaggerated claims.
A true immortal sword is a ninth-tier supreme treasure.
Even combining the realms of immortals and demons, the number of ninth-tier immortal swords is extremely limited.
Which one of them isn't renowned throughout the world, standing alone on the celestial terrace?
If this person truly possesses the Immortal Sword... even if it's just a replica, it would still be extraordinary and not to be underestimated.
Whether it's for the waters of the Demon Abyss or for the legendary immortal sword, she must find a way to locate this person.
Nu Ying grasped the communication stone and silently made up her mind.
She pressed on, "Do you know the name and appearance of that cultivator from the lower realm?"
"Her name is Chu Lengyu."
"All the relevant information is here, please take a look, sir." The fat man in the yellow robe humbly presented a jade slip.
After the investigation, he discovered that the female cultivator was an orphan, and he was powerless to even capture her blood relatives to make blood incantations and blood curses.
Si Que took the jade slip, quickly scanned its contents, his brows furrowed, and his face grew increasingly gloomy.
"Useless!" Si Que sneered and scolded.
These words were like a thunderclap, causing all the Nascent Soul and Divine Transformation experts present to tremble with fear, as if walking on thin ice.
"My lord, please calm down. This information came from the followers of the Plague God in the mortal realm below, so there may be some inaccuracies. If you are not satisfied, I will immediately send puppets to capture some more people and interrogate them in detail," the fat man in the yellow robe explained nervously.
"Have you read the things recorded in this jade slip? In less than a year, you've broken through three realms through tribulations. Are you telling me a story?!" Si Que glared angrily and threw the jade slip in his hand away.
The jade slip immediately struck the fat man in the yellow robe on the forehead, causing him to bleed profusely.
Although the fat man in the yellow robe was indignant, he dared not utter a word of complaint and could only hurriedly say that he would go and verify the testimony immediately.
The man in blue didn't dare to offer a single explanation. He stepped forward and reported respectfully, "My lord, after a thorough inspection, we found no abnormalities in the Star Locking Network, nor are there any other small worlds or secret realm entrances in the surrounding void. However, I will contact the Myriad Star Alliance as soon as possible to seek their assistance."
Si Que nodded slightly, acknowledging the blue-clad man's report.
However, the anger in her heart was still hard to quell.
Despite being fully prepared, she was still managed to escape from her grasp by a newly promoted early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.
If this gets out, wouldn't it become a laughing stock in the demon realm? It would be an utter disgrace!
At this moment, Si Que's heart was filled with coldness.
Furthermore, the kill order against the parasitic plague god has not been lifted, which undoubtedly reveals an astonishing fact—that female cultivator, even after being struck by an arrow from Si Que's Life-Severing Bow, is still alive!
This incident further fueled her murderous intent, even though she had never made a mistake.
Si Que was filled with resentment and wanted to find someone to vent his anger on. Just then, a group of Jiu clan spies hid in the shadows like rats, acting suspiciously.
A cold glint flashed in her eyes, and she gripped the life-severing bow tightly in her hand.
She commanded in a deep voice, "You must all guard this realm and ensure there are no further mishaps!"
All the cultivators present were startled and readily accepted the order.
Although the target has escaped for the time being, the female cultivator, being from the lower realm, is reluctant to leave her homeland and may very well reappear.
Therefore, waiting passively for the rabbit to run into the tree stump becomes the only good strategy at this moment.
After receiving their orders, the cultivators were all on high alert, their expressions solemn.
