Chapter 1930: Frenzied Instigation
Pavilion Master Chu’s long hair twisted gracefully above Song Shuhang’s head, swaying with the wind.
She continued, “In addition to being tastier, older things are generally more powerful.”
Behind Song Shuhang, Senior White’s clone’s hands started to get restless. The clone’s eyes were fixed on the long strand of hair swaying above Song Shuhang’s head, and it looked like he really wanted to pluck it.
While this long hair was talking with Song Shuhang, Senior White’s figure moved, grabbing at the long strand of hair from behind.
Pavilion Master Chu’s long hair receded into Song Shuhang’s head, and then emerged at another position on his head. “Sage White, what are you doing?”
Senior White shook his head calmly and then he went back to his original position. However, his eyes continued to remain focused on the strand of hair above Song Shuhang’s head, clearly waiting for an opportunity.
Pavilion Master Chu’s long hair felt very uncomfortable after being stared at in such a way. The seven-meter-long strand of hair began receding, becoming shorter and shorter.
“Cough, Senior Eternal Fire, has the scholarly faction already looked through this fragment?” asked Song Shuhang in an attempt to divert Senior White’s attention.
“We’ve inspected all of the Heavenly City Fragments that we had in hand, and this one is no exception. But if the Heavenly Emperor hid something inside it, it would be normal for us to have been unable to find whatever that may be,” replied True Monarch Eternal Fire. After all, the Heavenly Emperor was an existence that used to be on par with the Scholarly Sage.
Song Shuhang continued, “Then, can we go in and have a look?”
True Monarch Eternal Fire said, “This Heavenly City Fragment belongs to Fellow Daoist White now.”
Senior White’s clone turned his head. “Then, let’s go inside and have a look.”
At this moment, Pavilion Master Chu’s long hair suddenly said, “Actually, if you’re really that set on making an inner demon dish, then Chu Two would be a pretty good ingredient.”
Song Shuhang was stunned when he heard this.
Pavilion Master Chu continued, “Chu Two is an aged inner demon, and she’s been with me ever since the day the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion was destroyed. Moreover, she is now at the Immortal Realm. That is to say, she is an Immortal-level ingredient.”
Song Shuhang replied earnestly, “Sorry, Senior Chu... I still want to live to see another day.”
Even if he, surnamed Song, was someone who died a lot, he absolutely would not want to waste his resurrection treasures in such a way.
“Coward,” Pavilion Master Chu said and continued, “if you have a goal, then you must walk that path and do everything to achieve it. Since you want to be an immortal chef, then you must set becoming the best immortal chef as your goal. Using ingredients at the Immortal-level is the final goal of immortal chefs.”
“Senior Chu, what happened to you today?” Song Shuhang asked cautiously. “You didn’t develop a new inner demon, did you?”
Otherwise, why would she keep on urging him to eat Chu Two?
“You have a very strong desire to live today, huh.” Pavilion Master Chu’s long hair suddenly laughed out loud.
Song Shuhang: “???”
“A guest has come,” Pavilion Master Chu said slowly. “An uninvited guest.”
“An enemy?” Song Shuhang asked—But even if an enemy did come, what does that have to do with you encouraging me to eat Pavilion Master Chu Two?
Hearing the warning from Pavilion Master Chu, everyone present quickly entered a battle-ready state.
They were at the heart of the scholarly faction, right where the world of the golden lotus was located. It was the most important location for the current scholarly faction. If an enemy directly broke into this place, it would not be fun for them.
[Hehehe, I didn’t expect such good things to be hidden in the scholarly faction.] In the air, a heavy voice sounded. This voice had a thick nasal sound to it, which made it sound quite… cute.
Afterward, a spatial passage appeared. It was the spatial gate of a Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender.
However, under the suppression of the scholarly faction’s defensive measures, the spatial gate took a lot longer to form.
True Monarch Eternal Fire whispered, “The aura of the Netherworld.”
The scholarly faction and the evil demons of the Netherworld were archenemies, so the two sides constantly hunted and monitored each other.
Whenever the scholarly faction made a big move, the evil demons of the Netherworld would quickly get news about it, and vice-versa.
But this evil demon directly opened a spatial passage that led to the heart of the scholarly faction... Evidently, they were overflowing with confidence. If it was not a momentary lapse of judgment, did it mean that they were sure that they could leave intact?
Nevertheless, the visitor clearly did not come with kind intentions.
Senior White was the fastest to make a move. He appeared right in front of the spatial gate, rubbed his hands together, and then forcefully pressed them on the gate.
“Boom~”
A violent explosion sounded. The spatial gate and the passage were blown up.
It was the ultimate skill that the Scholarly Sage had passed down, the ?Explosive Space Compressing Technique?.
This was a secret technique that Senior White had obtained at the peak of the Mountain of Myriad Books, in the Still Pond of Wisdom.
This technique had been created by the Scholarly Sage specifically to deal with those who used spatial abilities to launch sneak attacks.
As its name suggested, the technique could cause space to explode.
Its effects were outstanding.
Inside the destroyed spatial passage, there was a muffled groan that could be heard.
Even for powerhouses at and above the Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender Realm, it was not pleasant to get hit by the ?Explosive Space Compressing Technique?.
The spatial passage collapsed.
But the other party did not give up, and another spatial passage soon began forming—but as before, under the influence of the scholarly faction’s formations, the speed at which spatial gates and passages formed was severely stunted.
Senior White moved once again. He rubbed his hands together, and then pressed them against the spatial passage.
“Boom~”
Song Shuhang said, “It’s like whack-a-mole.”
When it mattered, Senior White was always so reliable.
Senior White’s clone said, “Shuhang, come here in a while.”
Song Shuhang: “???”
Pavilion Master Chu’s long hair replied while twirling around, “Sage White wants you to test the depth of the other party’s strength.”
While she said that, another spatial passage appeared.
Senior White moved, grabbed Song Shuhang, and appeared beside the spatial passage.
“Expert’s Appraisal!” Song Shuhang’s left eye lit up, and a beam of light shot into the spatial passage.
After a few moments.
Song Shuhang said, “There isn’t a response. Damn, I’m afraid they’re a peerless expert.”
Senior White rubbed his hands together.
“Boom~”
The space passage exploded once again.
Pavilion Master Chu said, “No, that’s not the case. It’s just that after the other party opened the passage, they did not go in. Cunning.”
[Hehehehe.] Laughter sounded from the void.
In the next moment, a spatial gate swiftly opened, and the head and paw of a bear squeezed out of the gate.
After attempting to open a spatial gate three times, the demon had already caught on to the trick of the scholarly faction that suppressed spatial abilities. As such, it decided to rush in right away.
“Let’s see how you detonate space this time.” The bear paw waved and pointed at Senior White. “Come on, do it again!”
“Expert’s Appraisal!” Song Shuhang sent another Impregnating Gaze into the spatial passage.
“Bam~”
The bear head grinned and said, “It’s useless, Demon Sage Tyrannical Scholar. A mere pregnancy won’t affect me.”
So, was it a peerless powerhouse?
Why are there so many people who are immune to the Expert’s Appraisal these days?
The bear head said proudly, “I can conceive ten children at once, without feeling the slightest discomfort. I can even head to battle right after conceiving ten children!”
Song Shuhang: “...”
How horrifying. This is someone with a terrifying physique that makes them immune to the Expert’s Appraisal!
