How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!

Chapter 493: Chapter 0488 Yinluo Sect Ruins

After leaving the shop, Chen Yu wandered around for a while.

“Blood-colored Restaurant?”

Perhaps because of what the maidservant mentioned earlier, Chen Yu paid more attention and happened to see this restaurant.

This restaurant, clad entirely in a dark red hue, revealed its uniqueness as Chen Yu entered.

Spanning three floors, although everyone was drinking, the atmosphere was very quiet as if lively discussions were being held in hush tones.

Strangely, almost everyone made no effort to conceal their cultivation levels.

Thus, it was easy for Chen Yu to determine that on the first floor were all those of the Postnatal Qi Transformation level, the floor teeming with the most people, while the second floor housed those of the Qi Transformation Innate level, and on the third floor were those of the Guiyuan Realm, numbering more than twenty.

In the vast ancient lands, it was somewhat easier to break through to the Guiyuan Realm compared to Beiyuan.

And in this one prefecture, with three huge leaders, some second-tier families, third-tier families, and Loose Cultivators, the number of those in the Guiyuan Realm was not on the same level as in Beiyuan.

“This modest tavern has gathered so many powerful figures from the Guiyuan Realm; it truly is extraordinary!”

Chen Yu grew more interested.

Bang!

Chen Yu also released a faint trace of a demonic aura, although not intense, it was undeniably of the Guiyuan Realm level, causing many on the first floor to shiver and look at him with added respect.

At the same time, many on the third floor sized him up.

However, Chen Yu’s black robe obstructed their Spiritual Sense. Without the cultivation level of the Late Guiyuan Realm, they could not discern Chen Yu’s true appearance.

Chen Yu climbed to the third floor and casually chose a seat, ordering a jar of wine.

“Alright, sir, here’s your wine.”

Shortly after, the server came over, placed down a jar and bowl, and left.

Chen Yu poured himself a drink and started observing the surroundings.

Although he felt something was peculiar about this place, he didn’t know the reason. Since the restaurant was very quiet, it seemed inappropriate for Chen Yu to randomly ask someone.

Thus, he began to observe the individuals of the Guiyuan Realm around him.

According to his senses, there were ten at the Early Guiyuan Realm, five at the Early Guiyuan Realm Peak, four at the Middle Stage of Guiyuan Realm, and three whom he could not see through at all.

While Chen Yu was observing, a voice suddenly echoed in his mind. “Young brother, are you interested in the treasure hidden within Mysterious Moon Forest?”

Chen Yu looked up; the voice had come from the middle-aged man at the table opposite him.

Mysterious Moon Forest was one of the dangerous forbidden grounds in Tianhe Prefecture, and this forbidden area had a remarkable treasure that Chen Yu had also heard about, said to be the base of a notorious band of thieves a thousand years ago.

Chen Yu did not respond to the man’s query.

Through the middle-aged man’s message, Chen Yu was fairly certain of the purpose of the Blood-colored Restaurant.

Yun Zhao Country was vast with many naturally formed dangerous places, and others created by the mighty of the Sky Sea Realm among others, in abundance.

These perilous spots represented opportunities as well.

Perhaps someone had accidentally discovered a clue but lacked the personal power and sought partners.

The Blood-colored Restaurant provided a setting for such people to form teams.

More Loose Cultivators, who survived by adventuring, often roamed here in search of companions.

“Hmph!”

Across him, the middle-aged man’s face fell, and with a cold snort, a chilling spiritual power surged toward Chen Yu.

He had extended an invitation, but Chen Yu hadn’t even responded, embarrassing him.

In fact, Chen Yu was deep in thought and had neglected it.

Buzz!

Chen Yu immediately looked up, his piercing, deep black eyes releasing a domineering demonic spiritual power.

Instantly, the middle-aged man’s spiritual power shattered, and he felt an invasive demonic force entering his mind, causing him to grunt and his body to tremble slightly.

This scene caught the attention of other powerhouses present, and they glanced at Chen Yu more pensively.

That middle-aged man had some reputation in Tianhe Prefecture; he had broken through to the Guiyuan Realm ten years ago and was just a step away from reaching the Early Guiyuan Realm Peak.

“Not interested.”

After countering, Chen Yu replied to the other.

Chen Yu had declined the invitation because bandits, passionate about riches, were likely to have gathered mostly Primordial Stones if they truly found a treasure.

Moreover, Chen Yu had a disagreement with this man, making them unsuitable for cooperation.

Furthermore, Chen Yu developed an interest in the Blood-colored Restaurant, finding that some of the clues and information here were unique and known by few.

“Sir, the strength you just displayed was commendable. I was wondering if you’d be interested in exploring a relic with us?”

Just then, a middle-aged man with golden hair from another table sent a message to Chen Yu.

“What kind of relic?”

Chen Yu asked.

“… A sect relic.”

The golden-haired middle-aged man hesitated for a moment before replying.

Clearly, before Chen Yu agreed, he was unwilling to share too much information.

“A sect?”

Chen Yu was inwardly astonished.

A millennium ago, Yun Zhao Country had been ruled by the royal family, and sects were almost obliterated.

Thus, this sect relic must be ancient and could contain various types of treasures, including the mineral materials Chen Yu needed.

Chen Yu stood up and moved over to sit with them.

At this table, there were originally five people, with the addition of Chen Yu, there were now six.

The middle-aged man with golden hair was the mission initiator; his cultivation seemed to be in the Middle Stage of Guiyuan Realm. To his left was a short man, in the Early Guiyuan Realm. Beside him was a man wearing a wide-brimmed hat, whose emitted cultivation was at the peak of the Early Guiyuan Realm.

Besides these, there was also a pair of twin sisters, one at the peak of the Early Guiyuan Realm and the other at the Early Guiyuan Realm.

“Are you willing to go?” the middle-aged man with golden hair asked.

“Could you reveal some more information!” Chen Yu replied indifferently.

“I discovered this relic; currently, no one else should be aware of it. Moreover, I have personally explored it, so the information is absolutely true. If you do not swear an oath of soul and blood, I will not reveal any further information,” the middle-aged man with golden hair said with a smile.

Although he said this, his words still leaked some information.

Firstly, few people knew about the relic, and secondly, he had personally explored it. This could be used to make him swear later to confirm its authenticity.

“Very well, I agree!” Chen Yu responded.

First, he was indeed very interested in so-called relics; humans have curiosity and a desire for adventure, and he might find the minerals he needed.

Secondly, the strongest among these five people was only in the Middle Stage of Guiyuan Realm, and they did not seem to belong to a group but were a team formed on the spot, so there was nothing to worry about.

“Good, six people should be enough,” the middle-aged man transmitted telepathically. Then he led everyone away from this place to a room.

First, the others needed to verify the truth of what the middle-aged man with the golden hair had said, so they made him swear a soul and blood oath first.

Then the rest similarly swore a soul and blood oath, agreeing not to explore alone or reveal the information to others after learning of it.

“The relic I discovered is suspected to be the Yinluo Sect site from ten thousand years ago; it was too dangerous inside, and as I was alone, I quickly left,” the middle-aged man with golden hair finally revealed.

“Yinluo Sect!” The others fell into thought.

The matter was from ten thousand years ago, too distant, but the Yinluo Sect was not an ordinary sect; it had a certain reputation among the demonic sects, so the people also had some knowledge of it.

“Yinluo Sect? We sisters are very interested, and hope to gain something from this journey,” the twin sisters said in unison, one voice enchanting and the other deep, sounding quite odd.

“When do we set out?” the man in the wide-brimmed hat asked. Although he intentionally lowered his voice, one could tell he was not old.

“Hehe, now that we have almost everyone, naturally, we set out immediately,” the middle-aged man with golden hair laughed.

The short man seemed to be part of the middle-aged man’s group, as he had been silent from start to finish and hadn’t stated his position.

“Now?” The twin sisters were surprised by the golden-haired middle-aged man’s urgency.

“Fine, you ‘Wan Baoguang’ do have some reputation; I will trust you, let us set out now!” the man in the wide-brimmed hat said briskly.

“You are Wan Baoguang?” the twin sisters asked simultaneously.

This was their third time coming to the Blood-colored Restaurant to form a team; they were cautious, but they had heard the name Wan Baoguang once.

Wan Baoguang was a loose cultivator who frequented the vicinity of Tianhe Prefecture. He was regularly involved in adventures, searching for relics and inheritances, which gave him some fame.

His most famous moment was when his team broke through an Ancient Transmission Array in the Sky Sea Realm. The team only lost one person, and everyone else obtained something significant.

Moreover, it was precisely after this that Wan Baoguang advanced to the Middle Stage of the Guiyuan Realm.

“Alright, let’s do it now.”

Chen Yu was indifferent.

Shortly afterward, the group left the Blood-colored Restaurant.

Some people looked on enviously, but since Wan Baoguang’s team had six people, they dared not make a move.

Quickly, the six of them arrived at the Transmission Array, choosing the Ancient Transmission Array designated for “Donglin Prefecture”.

“Three thousand low-grade essence stones.”

The officer collected the essence stones, and after a while, once sixteen people had gathered, the Transmission Array activated, and everyone’s figures gradually disappeared.

Donglin Prefecture was a coastal prefecture on the eastern edge of Yun Zhao Country. Due to its distant location, the transmission cost was higher, and the six of them paid over twenty thousand low-grade essence stones.

After arriving in Donglin Prefecture, Wan Baoguang led the way, with the group following behind.

Unnoticed, among those who were transmitted with them was an ordinary-looking man who arrived at a secluded corner and took out a communications talisman to send a message.

After a long flight, the twin sisters voiced their concern, “Where are we going? We’re about to leave Donglin Prefecture.”

“Outside Donglin Prefecture, East Sea,” Wan Baoguang answered.

At this moment, everyone felt a tad more solemn.

Donglin Prefecture was on the edge of Yun Zhao Country’s territory, and the government’s control was weak, thus the area was relatively chaotic. Outside the prefecture was even more so, and the sea was home to various alien races.

After a while, the group arrived at a certain spot above the East Sea.

Ensuring there was no one around, Wan Baoguang then said, “The relic is two thousand miles below here, but before we enter the relic, I must clarify one thing. As the discoverer of the relic, I have the right to one priority selection of treasures.”

Having reached the mouth of the relic, Wan Baoguang put forward this condition.

At that moment, everyone was too impatient to wait and easily agreed to Wan Baoguang’s reasonable request.
