Ao Jiugaiâs eyes gradually widened as if he had thought of something incredibly horrifying.
âThe Demon Suppression Emperorâs ultimate Divine Skill, the Demon Suppressing Four Spirits Seal!â
Ao Jiugai finally remembered, his expression changing continually, staring intently at Li Cheng as if trying to read something from Li Chengâs face.
But Li Cheng was focusing on his Cultivation and had no idea about Ao Jiugaiâs astonishment.
Ao Jiugai really wanted to wake Li Cheng up and ask about his connection with the Demon Suppression Emperor, because the ultimate techniques of such a mighty figure in the Divine Realm could not possibly be passed on to outsiders so casually!
However, he held back, realizing it wasnât the time to disturb Li Cheng.
âThis guy must have an unusual relationship with the Demon Suppression Emperorâ¦â The more Ao Jiugai thought about it, the more certain he became of his speculation.
Growl!
Another deep dragon roar emanated from around Li Cheng, snapping Ao Jiugai back to the present.
He saw the Divine Dragon phantom coiled around Li Cheng lift its head in a dragonâs cry before soaring out and cascading down into Li Chengâs palm, solidifying into a Big Seal.
The Divine Dragon, in a state of half-illusory and half-real, turned into a Big Seal, becoming a solid state, exuding a terrifying aura.
âItâs done, much easier than the White Tiger Seal,â said Li Cheng as he looked at the Big Seal in his hand. With a casual toss, it transformed back into the half-illusory Divine Dragon and returned to his Dantian.
Seeing Li Cheng awake, Ao Jiugai couldnât wait to ask, âIs that the Demon Suppressing Four Spirits Seal?â
Li Cheng looked at Ao Jiugai in slight surprise. âYou know about the Demon Suppressing Four Spirits Seal?â
Ao Jiugai nodded eagerly, full of expectation. âWhat is your relation to the Demon Suppression Emperor?â
That question undoubtedly indicated that the Four Spirit Seal was a Divine Skill of the Demon Suppression Emperor, but Li Cheng had only read about the Demon Suppression Emperor in books and didnât know much.
âSince Iâve learned his Divine Skill, I suppose I could be considered half a disciple?â pondered Li Cheng.
The expectation in Ao Jiugaiâs eyes faded; clearly, he had thought too much. From Li Chengâs demeanor, it was obvious he had no connection with the Demon Suppression Emperor.
âThatâs right! After all, itâs the Demon Suppression Emperorâs ultimate technique, so I thought you had some relation with him⦠I really donât know how you managed to learn it.â
Hearing Ao Jiugaiâs words, Li Cheng shrugged. âIf I had a relation with someone like the Demon Suppression Emperor, a ruler in his own right, what would I be doing here?â
Ao Jiugai nodded in agreement, regarding the matter as significant.
Li Cheng, stroking his chin, placed the Divine Skill into the Demon Suppression Bell. Could it be that the Demon Suppression Emperor was looking for a successor?
Or was it simply to find someone with high comprehension to pass down the Demon Suppressing Four Spirits Seal?
Shaking his head, Li Cheng turned to Ao Jiugai. âWhat was that big secret you mentioned earlier?â
âYouâre aware of how the realms of Divine Worldâs mighty ones are divided, right?â Ao Jiugai responded with a question.
Li Cheng nodded; he had not known before, but now he did after reading in the library.
Heaven God, True God, Divine Monarch, Divine King, Divine Emperor, Divine Venerable, and then the supreme Divine Emperor.
The gap between each Minor realm in Cultivation was vast, to say nothing of the difference between Major realms.
Having advanced to the mid-stage of the Heaven God State, Li Cheng had an even clearer understanding of the gaps between Minor realms.
âHehe, thatâs good. Right before my suicide, I accidentally stumbled upon a Divine Emperorâs cave dwelling!â Ao Jiugai said with a chuckle, clearly proud.
âAt that time, I was resolved to die, or else, I surely would have gone in search of the treasures!â
A Divine Emperorâs cave dwelling?
Li Cheng raised an eyebrow slightly. âIf this news gets out, it would cause a huge commotion in the entire Divine Dynasty.â
âRight, but aside from me, I doubt anyone knows. We should find a time to go and explore,â Ao Jiugai said, looking forward to it.
Li Cheng understood Ao Jiugaiâs intentions; it was nothing but to obtain some good items for his daughter.
âA Divine Emperor could leave behind methods that are not within our ability to overcome. Going there might just mean seeking death. Youâre already dead so it doesnât scare you, but Iâm still alive!â Li Cheng thought for a moment and then shook his head.
Treasures and such didnât matter. For now, he lacked no resources and safely Refining the Heaven God Pill to enhance his Cultivation was the true path.
Ao Jiugai was taken aback. âYouâre not interested in a Divine Emperorâs cave dwelling?â
âI am interested, but I am well aware of my own capabilities. I donât have the strength to entertain such thoughts right now,â Li Cheng shrugged.
Ao Jiugai looked at Li Cheng earnestly, sensing his genuine lack of interest in investigating the matter and couldnât help but shake his head. âItâs a pity. If Iâm not mistaken, that was a Divine Emperor who specialized in the Path of Time; the cave dwelling might be his Divine World.â
âPeople who specialize in the Path of Time are so rare, mainly because itâs too difficult. Missing this opportunity could mean never encountering such a chance again.â
A Divine Emperor who specialized in the Path of Time?
Could there be Time-related Divine Artifacts left behind?
Li Chengâs heart stirred, and he looked at Ao Jiugai. âWhere is it?â
âHuh? You want to go?â Ao Jiugai looked confused. Wasnât there no interest?
âI wonât be at peace if I donât take a look. Might as well go and see. If thereâs no danger, a simple exploration wouldnât hurt,â Li Cheng said with a smile, effectively passing the responsibility to Ao Jiugai.
Ao Jiugai was overjoyed, not minding taking the blame at all. âItâs not far from where I attempted suicide, in the northern parts of the Savage Ridge in the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty.â
Li Cheng recalled the map in his mind and nodded slightly. That wasnât far. There was a Savage City in that region where they could use the Transmission Array.
From Savage City, a mere ten million miles north lay the Savage Ridge.
However, the Savage Ridge was a gathering place for Evil Demons, and the slightest carelessness could mean no return.
âWhen do we leave?â Ao Jiugai asked, but his tone carried a hint of urgency.
Li Cheng stepped out of the house. âOf course now. Do we need to wait for an auspicious day?â
âWhy did you choose to commit suicide in Savage Ridge of all places? Thatâs not exactly friendly territory.â While walking towards the Transmission Array, Li Cheng asked.
