Chapter 1550: Chapter 359_5
But does he need these?
Totally unnecessary!
In short, the Daoist Lu Ya he specifically designated to connect with seemed more like a random connection, whereas the random connection with Immortal Ruo Yun felt more like a designated ally.
So, this Immortal Ruo Yun, if she’s not that kind of villain, not that kind of backstabber, it’s best to recruit her as a disciple.
As for whether the other party is a reincarnated great ability?
How can you even find a reincarnated great ability?
Can’t even deceive myself!
Although Ru Wenlin and Wu Jinhuan appeared to be heavily injured, they only took a single blow from the Immortal Chianjun, and in three days’ time, their injuries had recovered quite a bit.
Primarily, Ru Wenlin was worried that Cao Zhen staying with them would delay him from searching for treasures.
After all, the Fourth Dangerous Terrain had just opened, which is the best time for treasure hunting. Under their constant urging, Cao Zhen finally left.
Soon, he was surprised to find that the talisman about assassinating him had disappeared from the assassin guild’s talisman on his clone.
On the assassin guild’s talisman, once a task appears, unless someone completes it, it generally takes half a year for the task to be replaced.
Of course, an assassin has several talismans on them, each with different tasks. Even if it updates every half year, they don’t need to worry about not having tasks to accept.
But now, for his task talisman, it is far less than half a year since the appearance of a task to assassinate him, yet the task to assassinate him has disappeared.
Now, he is still alive and well, so it cannot be that the task is completed. The task’s cancellation has only one reason, which is that his power has changed again. Thus, the assassin guild needs to reassess what price is needed to assassinate him and then negotiate with the task issuer to increase the payment.
“In the dangerous terrain, it’s impossible to contact the outside. How did the assassin guild know about his power change so quickly? They’re the double-hand organization, not the Wanxiao Sect known for gathering information. Could it be through those talismans to learn the news from others? Can those talismans work in the dangerous terrain, for locating, even eavesdropping?
Or did someone from the Wanxiao Sect get the news and sell it to the assassin guild?
Or…”
Cao Zhen thought of another possibility, could it be that the assassin guild and Wanxiao Sect have connections?
Wanxiao Sect claims there is no news they can’t gather, so how do they gather information?
And the assassin guild’s talisman, or mask, should have functions like positioning. If it also has eavesdropping functions, then the assassin guild members can not only kill people, by carrying that talisman or mask, they are actually also gathering intelligence.
This time, after leaving the Fourth Dangerous Terrain, I can explore the inside of the Wanxiao Sect.
After parting with Ru Wenlin and others, Cao Zhen reverted to his previous appearance; the more mysterious he was, the greater pressure he could exert on people here.
Others clearly knowing he’s in this dangerous terrain but unable to find his traces would make them more apprehensive when facing people from the Hundred Peaks Sect.
After all, no one knows where I am and will wonder if I will suddenly appear.
Moreover, doing many things as Cao Zhen does bring some trouble. Better to act with a strange face, without any scruples.
Cao Zhen doesn’t know how big this dangerous terrain is, but the previous three were incredibly vast, each larger than the entire Eastern Wasteland.
Presumably, this Fourth Dangerous Terrain is no exception.
Flying all the way, here in the dangerous terrain, he even saw several fierce beasts never seen outside, encountered some dangers, but found no lethal dangers. Similarly, he hasn’t discovered any fortuitous encounters.
“No way, is my luck really that bad? I’ve been here so long and haven’t had any encounters, I don’t even know what the legendary Unknown Immortal Demon Bead looks like, let alone casually picking treasures.”
The Unknown Immortal Demon Bead, a treasure that only appears in dangerous terrains.
Actually, it can’t be called a treasure because nobody knows what will appear inside the Unknown Immortal Demon Bead, hence the name!
To Cao Zhen, this Unknown Immortal Demon Bead is like a blind box from his past life.
Possibly after opening an Unknown Immortal Demon Bead, you might find you’ve struck rich, inside might be a Mysterious Rank treasure, or a Mysterious Rank spell, or some precious materials.
But it’s also possible that after opening it, there’s just a piece of first-grade Immortal Mine!
Moreover, compared to blind boxes, the Unknown Immortal Demon Bead is also filled with danger.
At most, opening a blind box results in mostly losses.
Or perhaps it’s generally a loss.
Opening an Unknown Immortal Demon Bead has a fair chance of a big gain.
But it’s also possible, opening an Unknown Immortal Demon Bead could directly get you killed!
Opening a blind box, at most you get some junk, not any big bomb.
But when you open an Unknown Immortal Demon Bead, you could indeed instantly get blown to bits.
Some Unknown Immortal Demon Beads don’t contain any treasure; instead they hold a terrifying spell or violent power, and once opened, they explode immediately!
There have also been many cases before where masters of Earth Immortal Realm, Immortality Regainment Realm, and even True Immortal Realm were instantly killed.
