Chapter 352 The Purpose of Flying Star Sword Lord: Hunting Down the Crimson Flood Dragon King

"Am I already in a deadly predicament?"

Upon hearing Fei Chen Sword Lord's words, Ji Haoyuan's lips curled into a slight smile.

Do all these people like to talk in this tone?

Although he disagreed in his heart, he didn't rush to say anything on the surface, but patiently waited for Feichen Sword Lord to continue his explanation.

He believed that the other party had invited him specifically not just to say such things to "scare" him.

really.

Seeing that Ji Haoyuan did not rush to make any statement, Feichen Sword Lord silently nodded in his heart.

At that moment, he stopped being coy and said directly:
"Fellow Daoist Nanhua, are you aware that the Flying Star Palace and the Myriad Fiends Demon Sect are actually showing signs of siding with the demon race?"

"Um……?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Haoyuan was genuinely surprised.

But despite his surprise, he wasn't naive enough to believe whatever the other person said.

Not to mention that what those two companies did did not benefit them at all.

Just the fact that they would have to live under someone else's roof is something that the two Nascent Soul ancestors would never agree to.
It should be understood that reaching the Nascent Soul stage in cultivation means standing at the pinnacle of the Southern Wilderness.

Who would willingly submit to someone else?
Moreover, they are from a different race.

Are they really not worried at all that this is a delaying tactic by the enemy? Or perhaps a trap to lure them in?
"Hehe, there's some news that you might not be aware of, Fellow Daoist Nanhua."

As if sensing Ji Haoyuan's thoughts, Flying Star Sword Lord smiled faintly and continued:

"The two Venerables of Flying Star Palace and Ten Thousand Fiends Demon Sect actually don't have much time left to live."

These words immediately caused Ji Haoyuan's pupils to shrink slightly.

He wasn't really aware of this news.

After all, their Yanfa Sect has only been a fifth-tier sect for a short time.

Most importantly, they had no contact with the two Venerables of Flying Star Palace and Ten Thousand Fiends Demon Sect.

It's impossible for them to know anything about the situation of those two venerable ones.

But Wuji Hall is different.

As a long-established Nascent Soul sect in the Southern Wilderness, they must have a good understanding of the situation of Flying Star Palace and Ten Thousand Fiends Demon Sect.

They should also know something about those two venerable ones, more or less.

However, as I said before, if the two sects were to choose to side with the demon race for this reason alone, Ji Haoyuan still thought it was a bit frivolous.

"What if I told you that their demon race possesses a treasure that could extend the lifespan of a Nascent Soul cultivator?"

"If they use this as leverage, Fellow Daoist Nan Hua, do you think those two Venerables from Flying Star Palace and Myriad Fiends Demon Sect would be tempted?"

Feichen Sword Lord dropped one last bombshell.

He said, "Fellow Daoist Nanhua should still remember that ancient ruin that appeared in their demon territory back then, right?"
As far as I know, there are not only a large number of treasures useful to their demon race within that ancient ruin.

Moreover, there are many longevity-promoting spiritual items.

Among them were items sufficient to extend the lifespan of even a Nascent Soul cultivator and a fifth-tier Demon Emperor.

If that's the case, then the situation is indeed not very optimistic.

No one knew better than Ji Haoyuan what crazy things cultivators would do when facing the end of their lifespan.

The same was true of Huoyun Zhenren back then, and the same was true of Bihai Zhenjun later on.

Now the roles have shifted to two Nascent Soul cultivators...

If they don't go crazy, fine, but once they do, the extent of their madness will likely far exceed Ji Haoyuan and his group's imagination.

After all, the lifespan of a Nascent Soul cultivator is five thousand years.

Over such a long period of time, if one cannot see through the impermanence of life and death, in order to continue living, principles, bottom lines, righteousness, stances... all of these can probably be easily abandoned.

What they will do then is something no one can predict.

The premise is that everything Fei Chen Jian Jun said is true.

“Fellow Daoist Nanhua, I know that given our current relationship, you probably cannot fully trust what I say.”

Feichen Sword Lord was clearly very self-aware.

He continued, "But it's actually quite easy to verify whether what I've said is true. When the time comes, you and I just need to join forces to capture either the Black-Robed Demon Lord or Liu Daoxuan, and then interrogate them to find out the general truth."

If I'm not mistaken, tonight will be an excellent opportunity.

At this moment, Ji Haoyuan did not speak, but scrutinized Feichen Sword Lord with a critical gaze.

Feichen Sword Master smiled and met his gaze.

Just as Li Changhe and Liang Ruyu, who were standing to the side, were both showing their hidden dissatisfaction with Ji Haoyuan's actions, Ji Haoyuan finally spoke.

"why?
Or rather, what do you want?

Clearly, Ji Haoyuan also understood that nothing in this world happens without a reason.

Feichen Sword Lord's overtures, even his explicit offer to help him, were quite insincere.

There must be some underlying purpose or need on the part of the other party.

The other party's purpose and needs were what Ji Haoyuan needed to understand first.

Feichen Sword Lord naturally understood Ji Haoyuan's meaning, and upon hearing this, he couldn't help but ponder for a moment.

After a short while, he finally spoke:

"I hope that after this incident, Fellow Daoist Nanhua, you can help me hunt down the Crimson Flood Dragon King."

"Hunting the Crimson Dragon King?"

Ji Haoyuan's gaze suddenly sharpened.

He knew very well that the Crimson Flood Dragon King mentioned by Flying Star Sword Lord was a demon king who had truly reached the peak of the fourth rank.

In reality, his strength is probably three points greater than that of the Blood Prison Demon Lord who perished that day.

Most importantly, this demon king is also their greatest enemy at the Four Symbols Pass.

Why is Flying Star Sword Lord hunting down such a demon king? What exactly is he trying to do?
Perhaps sensing Ji Haoyuan's doubts, after hesitating for a long time, Feichen Sword Lord finally gritted his teeth and looked at Ji Haoyuan, saying:
“Fellow Daoist Nan Hua, to be honest, hunting down that Crimson Dragon King is actually the key to my vying for the next Palace Master of the Boundless Palace.”

"Senior Brother Feichen..."

Li Changhe and Liang Ruyu, who were standing to the side, both had a slight change in expression.

However, at this moment, Fei Chen Sword Lord waved his hand.

"It's alright. Since it's a collaboration, I shouldn't hide too much from you."

Then he recounted the relevant events to Ji Haoyuan.

original.

The most important condition for becoming the next Lord of the Wuji Palace is to have sufficient contributions to the sect.

Currently, the human and demon races are engaged in a great war.

The fastest and most abundant way to gain sect contribution points is naturally to kill demon kings of the same realm.

Among these demon kings, the contributions of a peak demon king like the Crimson Flood Dragon King are undoubtedly the greatest.

If you can kill one, you will have a huge advantage in the competition for the next temple master.

As for why Fei Chen Sword Lord and the others are so eager for the position of the next Palace Master of Wuji Palace, even to the point of competing with each other, the main reason is still because of that Wuji Seal.
