c1893: Victory Is Certain

Black Demon Territory.

A black-robed figure was flying at high speed along the route.

The black-robed figure was naturally Xiao Yi.

Just like the other halls, the region where the Black Demon Hall was located was also a separate region.

The Ancient Eight Halls, the places where each Main Hall was situated, were all vast regions, with no Sect forces existing within several surrounding regional ranges.

It was to show the transcendence of the Eight Palaces.

It also represented the iron rule that the Eight Palaces would absolutely not intervene in the struggles between the great powers.

At this moment, after leaving the Black Demon Main Hall, Xiao Yi had no intention of lingering in the Black Demon Territory.

He had originally planned to go to Ye Saint Mansion to attend that brat Ye Liu’s wedding banquet, and to temper himself there as well.

Now the condition given by Senior Luoo was also Treasures in the dangerous lands of the Eighteen Mansions.

Heading to the Eighteen Mansions Territory now was killing two birds with one stone.

...

More than ten minutes later, Xiao Yi left the Black Demon Territory.

After roughly flying a certain distance further, Xiao Yi descended from high altitude.

Before continuing on his way, he planned to cultivate for a while.

His Cultivation had returned to the Supreme Level.

Now, he naturally had to stabilize it first.

In the past, when he was traveling outside, if he happened to have Martial Arts Insights near the Main Halls or branch halls, or needed to enter seclusion, he would usually choose to go directly to the seclusion room in those Main Halls or branch halls.

In this world, there was no place safer than within the Eight Palaces.

But this time, Xiao Yi did not choose to go into seclusion within the Black Demon Hall Main Hall.

Strictly speaking, he didn’t want to stay in the Black Demon Hall Main Hall even for a moment longer.

It wasn’t for any other reason, but that he felt unsafe around Senior Luoo.

Senior Luoo was the most troublesome and most vexing old fellow he had ever encountered.

Domineering, yet capricious, impossible to read.

The deadliest thing was that Xiao Yi knew very well that Senior Luoo harbored extremely heavy killing intent toward him.

Back outside the Sword Emperor Stele, Xiao Yi had clearly felt that, at that moment, Senior Luoo had truly intended to strike a killing blow.

It was only because he had promptly handed over the Sword Emperor Origin that Senior Luoo lost the pretext to kill him.

And this time, he had only escaped disaster because his appearance had been greatly altered and his aura completely gone.

Heaven knew what kind of pressure he had been under during that brief time in the Black Demon Hall Main Hall.

From the moment he saw Senior Luoo, his heart was filled with vigilance mixed with intense shock.

That feeling was no different from walking a tightrope on the edge of a blade.

Even if he revealed the slightest hint, it would absolutely not escape Senior Luoo’s eyes.

And once Senior Luoo confirmed those hints and investigated further, he would inevitably discover that he was Xiao Yi.

At that time, he would certainly die.

Therefore, Xiao Yi chose to leave the Black Demon Hall Main Hall first.

Only now, after leaving the Black Demon Territory, did the great weight in his heart finally drop.

If not necessary, Xiao Yi had no intention of having any further dealings with Senior Luoo, at least not before he had sufficient strength. This was the wiser choice.

Negotiating with a Fierce Tiger for its skin was absolutely an extremely dangerous act.

His entering the Black Demon Hall Main Hall was practically like a lamb entering a tiger’s den.

Moreover, Senior Luoo was at least ten thousand times fiercer than any Fierce Tiger.

But that Ten Thousand Poison Fruit really made him drool.

That Ten Thousand Poison Fruit was definitely enough to let him return to the Peak of Supreme and cause his strength to skyrocket.

He might even step into Legend.

Once his Cultivation stepped into Legend, coupled with all his methods and trump cards, he would have far greater confidence when going to the Upper Sacred Moon Sect in five months for the agreed battle.

No, there wasn’t half a year left now, only a little more than five months.

And this time, at the Upper Sacred Moon Sect, he was not only going to keep the appointment, he also had to seize someone.

"This Ten Thousand Poison Fruit, I’m determined to get it." Xiao Yi’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Originally, even after he came out of the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb and his Cultivation reached the Peak of Supreme.

He still had no confidence in stepping into Legend.

To bridge in half a year the terrifying, enormous gap between the Peak of Supreme and the Legendary Realm? That was practically a fantasy.
