“Arghhhh!”

A shrill scream echoed through the air as the remaining black shadows within the Spiritual Island of the Vast River began to frantically scatter, as if terrified by something horrifying.

“Hmph!”

At that moment, a cold snort resounded across the island, and Jiang Chengxuan’s figure appeared.

With a simple, unadorned strike of his sword, the fleeing shadows were torn apart, vanishing into nothingness.

The ominous cloud that seemed to loom over the Spiritual Island of the Vast River dispersed with Jiang Chengxuan’s arrival.

Perfected Lord Vast River, Guan Xinting, and the others couldn’t hide their relief and gratitude.

They looked at Jiang Chengxuan and immediately thanked him.

“Thank you for saving our lives, Senior Jiang!”

“Don’t mention it.”

Jiang Chengxuan nodded slightly and then said, “Stay here for now. I haven’t yet caught the source of these black shadows.

Don’t go anywhere else; I’ll be back shortly.”

After speaking, he transformed into a streak of golden light and disappeared from their sight.

In the Nova Waters.

Jiang Chengxuan, transformed into a beam of golden light, quickly locked onto a specific area.

His eyes flashed coldly as the Pure Yang True Treasure, the Golden Void Sword, burst forth with brilliant sword radiance.

Boom!

A massive column of water erupted from the sea, within which countless twisted and ferocious faces appeared, including many disciples from the Spiritual Island of the Vast River.

Yun Zicheng was also among them.

“It’s indeed you, these wicked beings.”

Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes grew colder.

The Golden Void Sword in his hand seemed to have sensed its master’s intentions, and the sword qi on its surface became sharper.

Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!

The towering water column was split apart, and the distorted faces within shattered to pieces.

Whoosh—

But at that moment, a huge black shadow, existing between illusion and reality and surrounded by endless demonic flames, suddenly burst forth from the broken water column.

It traversed a vast distance in the blink of an eye, nearly vanishing from Jiang Chengxuan’s sight.

With a cold snort, Jiang Chengxuan said, “Think you can escape from me?”

As he spoke, a Roc phantom suddenly flashed behind him.

In the next moment, his entire body turned into a straight golden line.

With a swish.

Not only did it catch up to the black shadow in the blink of an eye, but it also instantly swept past its body.

“Arghhhh!”

An ear-piercing scream sounded in the air.

The entire black shadow, as if cut by something extremely sharp, disintegrated into countless fragments and vanished without a trace.

“Huh?”

At that moment, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes lit up with spiritual light.

He noticed a faint shadow slowly fading away at the spot where the black figure had disintegrated.

Accompanying it was a taunting telepathic message that entered Jiang Chengxuan’s ears.

“Hehe, as expected of Daoist Chengxuan. You can even detect such a minor fragment of my consciousness.

But I advise you not to bother trying to locate my true body.

At least for now, you won’t be able to find me.

However, don’t worry, there will come a day when we will meet face to face. Hehehehe…”

With a series of light chuckles, the shadow completely dispersed, along with the telepathic message.

Jiang Chengxuan calmly watched as this happened.

After a while.

He withdrew his gaze and turned to look behind him.

There.

A figure enshrouded in surging ocean waves slowly emerged.

It was Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean, the Soul Formation Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean from Black Sea Pavilion.

He approached Jiang Chengxuan and asked, “Daoist Jiang, have you dealt with that person?”

Jiang Chengxuan shook his head.

“What I just encountered was merely a fragment of the opponent’s consciousness.

His true body’s whereabouts are still unknown.”

Hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean.

Clearly, he realized that the situation was tricky.

Because according to their current understanding, the other party was elusive and hard to detect.

Under normal circumstances, it would be very difficult for ordinary cultivators to detect his methods.1

They wouldn’t even know when they had fallen for it.

For example, Perfected Lord Vast River and the cultivators of Celestial Law Sect.

They had unknowingly fallen for the trap.

‘Well…’

At the same time.

Jiang Chengxuan and Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean raised their heads and looked into the distance.

There.

At this moment, a few rays of light flew over.

They were Shen Ruyan, Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang and Heavenly Lord Everlasting Mountain.

After a hundred years.

The five Heavenly Lords gathered again.

“How did it go? Did you find any clues?”

At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan asked Shen Ruyan and the two Heavenly Lords.

Shen Ruyan shook her head at Jiang Chengxuan’s question.

“I didn’t find anything specific on my side. When I rushed over, everyone there had already died.”

“Me too.”

Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang said with a dark expression.

Heavenly Lord Everlasting Mountain also shook his head.

“Looks like the situation is pretty much the same for all of us.”

At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan also told them about the situation on his side.

After a while.

The five of them landed on the Spiritual Island of the Vast River.

The appearance of five Heavenly Lords simultaneously surprised Perfected Lord Vast River and Guan Xinting, along with the other survivors on the island.

However, before they could speak, Jiang Chengxuan waved his hand at Perfected Lord Vast River and the others.

“Island Master Vast River, there’s no need for the formalities. Go straight to the point and tell us in detail what happened before our arrival.”

Upon hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, Perfected Lord Vast River and the others did not dare to be negligent.

Immediately, they told Jiang Chengxuan and the others everything they knew.

When Jiang Chengxuan and the others heard this, they couldn’t help but look at each other.

Jiang Chengxuan said, “Fellow Daoists, what do you think?

Previously, I had specially deduced that person and the result was that he was currently in the territory of the demon race.

I’ve tried calculating the whereabouts of that person, and the results suggest he’s currently within the Demon Race’s territory. Given these events, it’s increasingly clear that he, or those people, have reached some sort of agreement or even collaboration with the demon race.”

“In other words, if we really want to find those guys, we have to go to the demon race territory, right?”

Heavenly Lord Everlasting Mountain asked hesitantly.

Jiang Chengxuan nodded and said, “That is correct.”

“Is there any way to lure them out?”

Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang asked.

“I’m afraid that’s very difficult. Unless there’s something that can attract them and force them to leave the Demon Race’s territory.”

Jiang Chengxuan pondered and said.

At this moment, Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean said,

“Fellow Daoist Jiang, did you deduce their background when you were calculating?

Or rather, do you have a rough guess?”

“Well…”

Jiang Chengxuan suddenly fell into deep thought.

Shortly after, specks of spiritual light appeared on his fingers.

The gazes of the people present could not help but constrict slightly.

They could already tell that Jiang Chengxuan had started his new calculations.

At this point, him knowing the Heavenly Calculation Technique was no longer a secret to those present.

Soon, mysterious auras began to appear on Jiang Chengxuan’s body.

About five minutes later, Jiang Chengxuan ended his calculation.

He looked at everyone present and pondered for a moment before saying,

“I can’t completely deduce the exact background of these people.

It seems there is an extremely mysterious power concealing information about them.

However, after expending a bit of my lifespan, I managed to capture some snippets of information about them.”

This was the true power of the Heavenly Calculation Technique.

Even if your information and heavenly secrets were obscured, it could still find clues through countless tiny gaps.

The catch was the willingness to pay the price.

Even if the target was a realm higher, useful information could be gleaned.

“If I am not mistaken, those individuals, or the people behind them, are likely connected to a True Demon inheritance. But which specific inheritance it is, I cannot ascertain.”

“True Demon Inheritance?”

The others’ expressions shifted slightly upon hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words.

Clearly, they all knew very well that the so-called True Demon Inheritance was an inheritance that surpassed the Upper Realm and was connected to the Immortal Realm.

In other words, the other party actually had an inheritance that was connected with the Immortal Dao.

Even for these cultivators, who were staunchly aligned with the righteous path, the idea of an inheritance linked to the Immortal Dao was incredibly significant and difficult to ignore, despite knowing it might be beyond their reach.

“Cough cough…”

At that moment, Shen Ruyan suddenly coughed.

When Heavenly Lord Everlasting Mountain and the others heard it, it was like a thunderclap that woke them up.

For a moment, their expressions could not help but be a little awkward.

At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan continued,

“Everyone, I actually haven’t finished what I said just now.

Although they are related to a True Demon inheritance, I believe that what they possess is incomplete, likely just a fragment or a remnant.

Otherwise, if it were a complete True Demon inheritance, with my current level of power, I wouldn’t have been able to deduce anything about them.”

Hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, Heavenly Lord Everlasting Mountain and the others finally reacted.

Indeed.

If the other party really had the complete True Demon Inheritance, it would definitely not be like this.

With the techniques and power that come with such an inheritance, if their intention was to dominate or transform their world, they likely would have succeeded by now.

The need for such intricate and complex schemes would be unnecessary..
