"What happened?" Xie Zhongzhu, who was standing side by side with Mo Zuhuang in front of their artifact, immediately asked Tian Shiwang, who had already kneeled down on one knee in front of them.
Tian Shiwang then reported to them the results of the five immortals' investigation in the Azure Mystic Realm, especially about Sheng Hongfei's presence and the disappearance of the darkness in several of their followers' residences.
"Husband, your guess is correct; the spirit of darkness has returned. If the report of those idiots is correct, the other spirit women have also returned, including the spirit of void." Upon noticing Xie Zhongzhu's silence, Mo Zuhuang immediately questioned him. "Do you think the spirit of time has returned as well?"
"I can't be sure." Xie Zhongzhu then looked several directions ahead before continuing. "According to the manuscripts left by our ancestors, the spirit of time has a special and deep relationship with Long Wang, and she has always accompanied all his reincarnations. If she has indeed returned, I am certain that his reincarnation has also appeared. Unfortunately, this universe is too vast, and we have been searching for his reincarnation for a thousand years, but we still haven't managed to find him."
Mo Zuhuang suddenly remembered something and conveyed her thoughts directly to Xie Zhongzhu. "If I think back, there are some realms in this universe that we cannot enter because Long Wang protects them with special formation arrays, such as the Three Realms and the Fairy Realm. He might have long prepared those realms for his return, especially since the rulers of those realms were people who had been loyal to him since generations before them. If the spirit of time and the other spirit race women had returned, the spirit of void might take them to one of those realms by tricking our supervision, so I think we should find a way to enter those realms to find his reincarnation."
Xie Zhongzhu turned to Tian Shiwang immediately. "Order all your subordinates who are still in the Five Divine Heavens to go to all those realms as quickly as possible, and order them to use all means to destroy their formation arrays, including sacrificing their lives."
Mo Zuhuang immediately supressed Tian Shiwang with her aura, causing him to collapse onto the flying artifact floor, unable to move a single finger. "Remember, it was my husband who granted you the power to overthrow Long Wang and take his position, and he can take that power back if you dare to defy his orders. After that, I will send you to the spirit realm, and they will definitely hand you over to the spirit of time. If that happens, you should already know what will happen to you next, right? Moreover, your subordinates are just chess pieces, and they are not of much use to us. Now go, contact them, and order them like my husband ordered you, or I will make you regret it."
After she withdrew her aura, Tian Shiwang immediately rushed away before contacting his men in the Five Divine Heavens. Mo Zuhuang then embraced Xie Zhongzhu's arm. "If we hadn't needed him to control those idiot immortals, I would have killed that weak coward a long time ago. Anyway, how long until we reach the Cultivator Forbidden Land? Compared to those realms, that realm is the most hidden for the appearance of Long Wang's reincarnation, especially since all the cultivators have long forgotten that place."
"I think the same as you do." Xie Zhongzhu replied with a nod. "It doesn't matter if there's no Qi in that place, especially since the spirit of time will surely succeed in finding Long Wang's reincarnation. Since the other spirit women have returned and are making moves in the middle realms, I am sure that she has already found him, and she might have ordered them to hide him in a safe place. As for Feng Xian'er, I'm sure that she has also returned, especially since she's a fire phoenix, and she doesn't need to go through the reincarnation cycle to be reborn. However, I have no idea where she is now or if she has reunited with him. Anyway, we will arrive at the Cultivator Forbidden Land in a week, and we might be able to find something if his reincarnation does appear there."
"I hope so." Mo Zuhuang answered with a soft sigh and laid her head on her husband's shoulder before extending her right hand forward. In an instant, black flames appeared on her palm. "My hellish black flames are still not perfect, and I can only perfect them by absorbing Feng Xian'er's phoenix flames. Unfortunately, those idiots didn't manage to capture her a thousand years ago, especially after Long Wang took her away, and I'm losing patience to do so."
"Hahaha." Xie Zhongzhu laughed and hugged her waist. "Be patient, okay? Once you obtain Feng Xian'er's phoenix flames and I obtain Long Wang's dragon core, the two of us will be the sole rulers of this entire universe, and its inhabitants will submit to us completely."
"Yeah." Mo Zuhuang extinguished her black flames and gazed at her husband. "Unfortunately, the only key for us to enter the Dragon Realm is Long Wang's reincarnation, so we must find him as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be too late once he regains his past strength, especially since he is not a fool, and we will definitely have a difficult time taking him down again like before."
Xie Zhongzhu was naturally aware of this, so he nodded in agreement with Mu Zuhuang. "I've already informed our people about the return of the spirit race members, and they've begun to spread out to look for Long Wang and Feng Xian'er. If Tian Shiwang's subordinates can enter those realms, I believe we can find them faster."
Xiao Hei, who was busy absorbing the darkness in the Seven Moon Realm, suddenly sensed a powerful aura entering the realm. Xiao Huoli and Xiao Diqiu, who also sensed it, immediately appeared beside their sisters. The spirit of darkness instantly enveloped them with her darkness, blending their presence with the darkness of the dark race.
'Do you recognize that man, Sister Hey?' Xiao Diqiu asked the spirit of darkness as soon as the owner of the aura arrived above them.
Xiao Hei raised his eyebrows for a moment before nodding. 'He is Bu Xiuzhe, and he is Tian Shiwang's brother-in-law. According to Big Sis Shijian, he should have come with the other immortals, but they seemed to have deliberately spread out to make it easier for them to inspect all planets in these lower realms.'
'Sister Hei, I think this is a good opportunity for us.' The spirit of darkness immediately turned to Xiao Huoli. 'Since Bu Xiuzhe came to this realm by himself, I think you can use your devil mark on him, and we won't have to worry about the other immortals knowing our presence in this realm. Moreover, he is Tian Shiwang's brother-in-law, so he will be very useful for us to monitor them closely, and they won't notice our actions.'
Xiao Hei nodded in agreement with Xiao Huoli, but they didn't move immediately and waited for the right time to ambush Bu Xiuzhe, who looked confused in the sky.
"What the hell is wrong with this realm? Zu Zhoushi once told us that he had come to this realm to exterminate the people of the Ancient Qin Clan, and that was only a few hundred years ago. Yet, this realm looks like it has been abandoned for thousands of years." Bu Xiuzhe wondered to himself as he scanned the entire area of the Seven Moon Realms with his senses, but he then landed at the source of the darkness to examine it. "This darkness should have been thickened like in other realms, but it is still too thin. It appears that the information my brother-in-law obtained about the return of the spirit of darkness is true, and he must have absorbed it before."
Bu Xiuzhe immediately contacted Tian Shiwang to report his discovery in the Seven Moon Realm, and he also told him about the strange conditions there. After that, he intended to leave that realm to go to another realm, but countless darkness threads immediately surrounded him before binding both his hands and feet, and they also covered his mouth. Bu Xiuzhe struggled to free himself from those dark threads, but they quickly absorbed his strength and Qi, causing him to weaken and panic. 'Shit! I was too reckless!' "Haha." Xiao Hei laughed when she dispelled the darkness that enveloped her and her two sisters. "Were you surprised to see us, Bu Xiuzhe? Even if your cultivation is already at the immortal king level, you still won't be able to destroy my darkness threads, especially since my darkness is made of pure darkness and my cultivation is two major levels above yours."
'Damn it!' Bu Xiuzhe inwardly cursed as Xiao Hei sealed his cultivation, preventing him from contacting Tian Shiwang and the other immortals.
"Tian Shiwang must have gotten information about our return from the dark race leaders, right?" Xiao Hei then touched Bu Xiuzhe's chest. "If only you had come to this realm with the other traitors, we would not dare to appear before you. Unfortunately, you were too foolish to come here by yourself even though you already knew that we had returned, so I will not waste
this rare opportunity." Thıs content belongs to 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝘯𝘦𝘵
After she said that, Xiao Hei's pitch-black eyes glowed even blacker, and she rushed to plant her devil mark into Bu Xiuzhe's soul, causing his eyes to turn pitch-black like hers for a while before returning to normal.
Xiao Hei then pulled her hand back and ordered Bu Xiuzhe to spill out all of Tian Shiwang's plans. Unfortunately, he didn't know much about his plans, especially since his brother-in- law didn't explain them in much detail to him or the other immortals, which disappointed them. "Who among them came to the lower realms?"
"Qin Yuanfeng, Lou Bingyu, Hua Taixiu, Bai Qingcheng, and Qu Qianfeng."
"Hmm?" Xiao Hei fell into deep thought after hearing the five names from Bu Xiuzhe's mouth, but then she turned to Xiao Huoli, who immediately handed her some pills. She then injected her darkness into those pills before giving them to him. "Give these pills to those
five, and I'll take care of the rest."
After Bu Xiuzhe left, Xiao Diqiu asked Xiao Hei. "Do you think they won't notice his actions?"
"They will, but it will be too late for the time they do." Xiao Huoli then took out two identical pills and showed them to Xiao Diqiu. "See? One of these pills is the recovery pill that the Alchemy Goddess usually sells in the Five Divine Heavens; the other is my qi exploding pill. They have the same color and aroma, especially since most of their ingredients are the same, but I added some other herbs to my pills, so they won't notice that they took different pills."
