I picked up the scattered attributes

Feng Xia was also speechless. He waited for a long time, and after confirming that there was really no further news, he couldn't help but scoff: "You made it all so mysterious, and in the end... that's it?"

His experience in the dream world was far more exciting!

"As I walked out of the Gates of Hell again, I suddenly heard a voice, mumbling something indistinctly in my ear, as if it were telling me some great secret..."

Whenever he recalls what happened back then, Yu Qianjue's expression is somewhat incredulous: "But I didn't understand it at all. I just found the voice annoying, so I sped out of the Underworld Gate and focused on my cultivation again."

Feng Xia: "..."

If the voice that rang in Yu Qianjue's ear was from some indescribable being, about to reveal some earth-shattering secret to him...

I'm afraid this guy will drive me crazy on the spot!

"Later, when I mentioned this to the elders in my clan, they were all shocked. One by one, they examined my soul repeatedly, and they kept an eye on me for three or four years without letting go."

Those years undoubtedly left a deep psychological scar on Yu Qianjue, so much so that even now, he still feels lingering fear, his expression filled with grief and indignation as he says, "Can you understand that feeling? Whether you're eating, drinking, defecating, or sleeping... at least three experts are monitoring you, and they're using their divine sense to monitor you from all angles..."

Feng Xia thought for a moment and realized that he couldn't truly empathize with her, so he patted Yu Qianjue's shoulder and comforted her, "Relax, after all, you made me laugh."

Yu Qianjue: "..."

I knew this bastard wouldn't say anything nice!

What happened next was not particularly surprising.

Although he inexplicably "dreamed" of the Nine Netherworld Gate, and even pushed open the gate to take a stroll on the other side, Yu Qianjue was still perfectly fine and alive and kicking. In fact, his cultivation speed even increased slightly after that.

This surveillance continued for several years before it ended.

“I see. So, for you, the Nine Netherworld Gate is indeed a memorable but ultimately useless memory…” Feng Xia clicked his tongue thoughtfully.

For no apparent reason, a possibility came to mind.

Could the gate to the underworld that Yu Qianjue saw in his soul actually be some kind of selection process?

Only those beings who can see and push open the Gates of the Underworld are qualified to enter and learn deeper, more astonishing secrets.

Unexpectedly, Yu Qianjue was also an oddball. Even though he had already pushed open the door, he still didn't understand anything!

"Then, could the remnant souls of the Golden Crow clan have also suffered a similar fate?"

Feng Xia immediately thought of more: "However, unlike Yu Qianjue, who is such a blockhead, they probably saw something at the entrance, which is why they were able to learn the Netherworld Gate Divine Power, and that led to everything that happened later..."

The problem with knowledge lies in...

Who is this mysterious being who is employing these methods, spanning vast amounts of time and space, to conduct an unknown "selection"?

"Another unsolved mystery has emerged. Perhaps I can ask the schoolteacher about it when I return to Thousand Autumns Valley..."

He frowned, then slowly relaxed.

There are still many problems to deal with, and we can't focus on this mysterious entity in the short term.

Thinking of this, Feng Xia shook her head with a wry smile and descended step by step from the clouds.

at the same time.

His clothes, once soaked with sweat, were now smooth again, and his long, black hair danced in the air, just as when he left Qianqiu Valley, as light as a cloud and as swift as a swallow, ascending to the highest heavens.

"Gentlemen."

Feng Xia's laughter rang out, echoing throughout the city below.

The disciples of Qianqiu Valley held their breath, staring blankly at the figure descending from the sky.

"He... he's really back!"

"When he left, he was invincible..."

"When he returned, he was still invincible!"

A single bell can determine a thousand autumns!

He is the leader of Thousand Autumn Valley!

Many people looked at the figure with excitement, and some disciples even shouted out in fervor:

"We...pay our respects to the Sect Leader!!"

The thunderous roar shook the sky at that moment!

……

Chapter 0557

"These guys..."

Feeling the almost tangible sound wave, Feng Xia couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle: "Aren't you afraid that such a loud noise will scare those birdmen from Tanggu out again?"

Yu Qianjue immediately turned around, glaring at Feng Xia with displeasure: "I have a feeling you're implying something—"

Feng Xia shook his head without hesitation: "How could that be? Fellow Daoist Yu, you're overthinking it."

Without waiting for Yu Qianjue's response, he waved to the crowd below and descended from the sky step by step, as if stepping on invisible stairs.

"I am back!"

"Headmaster!"

"The Sect Leader is invincible!"

These four simple words have once again stirred up a storm.

The disciples of Qianqiu Valley watched as that figure walked towards them, feeling not only awe but also excitement and fervor!

Just like more than a year ago, it was this same Feng Sect Leader who suddenly appeared and forcefully defeated the attacking Mo Yuanlong.

A year later, he has become even stronger than before. He didn't even need to take action himself to suppress that terrifying demonic bird, causing it to flee in panic!

"The Sect Leader is invincible!"

"This guy is so arrogant, even his male servants have to be so handsome..."

In the Zhihu City on the ground, Yan Wuyou scanned around Feng Xia but couldn't find Zhu Youniang. Her gaze lingered on Yu Qianjue for a moment before she finally uttered a sour remark.

Yu Qianjue, who was in mid-air, suddenly felt a strange chill.

"What's going on? Is someone jealous of my good looks?"

His expression changed repeatedly, but in the end, he still couldn't find the source of the chill.

Meanwhile, Feng Xia had already stepped onto the ground, and the disciples of Qianqiu Valley who had been waiting for a long time rushed up and surrounded him.

"Sect Leader! What kind of supernatural power did you use just now?"

"That big bird looks very powerful, it should have the cultivation of the peak of the Yuan Dan realm, right?"

"Is this city going to be abandoned? It feels a little like a shame."

Because Feng Xia was quite approachable when he was in Qianqiu Valley, and often mingled with the disciples, even after witnessing the scene before, many people still started chattering and asking questions.

Little did they know that not far away, there were several other figures with extremely strange expressions on their faces.

“Yuan Dan Realm… Are the strongest beings in the eyes of humans only those at the Yuan Dan Realm?”

"If that Crimson Crow is also at the Yuan Dan realm, then what are we?"

They were all demon lords from the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.

There are even some demon kings among them!

Of course, in today's world where everything has changed drastically, the cultivation level at the peak of the Yuan Dan realm is no longer enough to make one a king or a hegemon. However, due to various special reasons, this title, which is full of historical significance, has been retained by the demon race for a short period of time.

Previously, in order to make up for the shortcomings in the cultivation level of Zhihu City, Feng Xia captured a batch of demon beasts from various places in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.

Compared to how he treated the disciples of Qianqiu Valley, Feng Xia's methods this time were much more brutal.

Those who obey will be taken away directly; those who disobey will be beaten before being taken away.

There were some rather tragic monsters who had been either undergoing metamorphosis or dormant for many years, never having come into contact with the outside world. They were inexplicably awakened by being slapped, and those who resisted were slapped again. Then, without saying a word, they were dragged to Zhihu City...

For these monsters, the process of understanding the world can be roughly divided into three steps:

What? Someone hit me?

What? The Holy Son is gone? The Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons has changed?

What?! Your Majesty, why are you personally hitting me?! I can do it for you!

"You mean that big bird? It's not bad, but it's still a bit weaker than me."

Feng Xia smiled warmly and nodded slightly to everyone.

Upon receiving his affirmative answer, the disciples of Qianqiu Valley erupted in cheers.

"The sect leader is truly amazing! He can easily suppress even a peak Yuan Dan realm cultivator. Could it be... that the sect leader has already reached that level?"

"That's probably it! If one hadn't reached that level, how could one so easily suppress a peak Yuan Dan cultivator?"

In just a few words, the whispering crowd became even more excited.

This left the demons speechless.

Peak of the Yuan Dan Realm...

Including those who broke through after the great changes in the world, there are no fewer than twenty of them here, not to mention that a few of them have reached the level of the former Demon King!
