The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 753

Chapter 753: Chapter 749: Volunteering for Duty Chapter 753: Chapter 749: Volunteering for Duty A day and a night later, Shen Luo emerged from the secret chamber of his dwelling. He was now in clean clothes, all of his injuries had completely disappeared, but his complexion still looked a bit pale.

He sat down in the hall, took out the Heavenly Book, and did not attempt to enter it again.

The Three-eyed Celestial General was so terrifying that it was absolutely impossible for him, in his current state, to subdue it.

He sensed the white-robed elder and the others, and upon receiving no messages, he put away the Heavenly Book and began to inspect the jade slip he had acquired from the Treasures Hall Ruins.

In the following days, Jilei Mountain remained peaceful. The Demon Clan did not launch an attack, nor did they retreat. The Bull Demon King and the Ten Thousand Years Fox King were busy deploying troops and setting up formations.

Shen Luo spent these days in tranquility, healing his wounds and stabilizing his realm in his dwelling every day.

The Ten Thousand Years Fox King had announced Shen Luo's appointment as a Guest Elder to the entire Jade Fox Clan. Most members of the Jade Fox Clan welcomed him warmly and did not stop him when he visited the library of the Jade Fox Clan in his spare time to read some of the classics.

There were many books about talismans in the library of the Jade Fox Clan. After Shen Luo read through them, he found them very rewarding. He found three useful talismans: the Escape Earth Talisman, the Invisibility Talisman, and the Earth-Attracting Thunder Talisman.

The Escape Earth Talisman and Invisibility Talisman were high-order runes, while the Earth-Attracting Thunder Talisman was of a higher grade, a Pseudo-Immortal Talisman.

The materials required for these three talismans were quite precious, especially the Earth-Attracting Thunder Talisman. However, Shen Luo, with his abundant assets in the Dreamland and his status as a Guest Elder of the Jade Fox Clan, procured a large quantity of materials for the three talismans from the Ten Thousand Years Fox King after a short notice.

After practicing for a few days, Shen Luo quickly mastered the Escape Earth Talisman and the Invisibility Talisman. However, just like the Thunderfall Talisman, the Earth-Attracting Thunder Talisman required lightning from a storm to be created. He only mastered the rune method for this talisman because of weather conditions, and was unable to create it.

Half a month passed quickly, and one day, Shen Luo lifted his head while reading a book of talismanic classics in his dwelling.

He retrieved the Heavenly Book with a wave of his hand, entered the ruins of the Heavenly Book after activating it, and found that the white-robed elder and the others were already waiting there.

“Now that everybody is here, let's begin. After investigating these days, I've located the Red Boy.” The yellow-robed man spoke upon seeing Shen Luo arrive.

“Brother Lei, your work is indeed efficient. May I inquire where is Red Boy now?” The white-robed elder praised and questioned.

“In order to find Red Boy, I expended a lot of effort and even lost some manpower. Do you think I would just tell you?” The yellow-robed man replied with a light chuckle.

“Tell us what you want in return,” the white-robed elder replied nonchalantly.

“The thing I asked for last time,” the yellow-robed man said.

“Alright,” the white-robed elder agreed without hesitation and handed over a white jade box.

The yellow-robed man accepted the box, and as he opened it, a yellow light flashed in his hand, obscuring the interior and preventing Shen Luo from seeing what was inside.

“Haha, excellent! Brother Yuan, your munificence astounds me,” the yellow-robed man laughed and put away the jade box.

“Stop wasting time and get to the point,” the white-robed elder urged.

“This information is only worth telling Brother Yuan. What about you, Brother Hua, Brother Shen? If you too wish to hear it, shouldn't you pay a price? Or do you intend to listen for free?” The yellow-robed man, turning to Shen Luo and the Silver Armored Man, asked with a smile.

“Brother Lei, you should know when to stop. If I know this information, it means Brother Hua and Brother Shen know as well.” Before Shen Luo and the Silver Armored Man could speak, the white-robed elder was already a little angry.

“Alright then, Red Boy is currently at Fire-spreading Mountain,” the yellow-robed man casually shared.

“Fire-spreading Mountain?” Shen Luo furrowed his brows, for he had not heard of this place before.

“That's a mountain range in Northern Ju Lu Continent. What is the Red Boy doing there? Is there a chance of persuading him to return to the side of the Bull Demon King?” The white-robed elder explained to Shen Luo and asked afterwards.

“Not likely. Red Boy now holds a high position in the Demon Clan, already one of the Twelve Distinguished Ones, and has a significant number of Demon Soldiers under his control. He's on the rise and certainly doesn't want to return to his parents to be restrained again,” the yellow-robed man replied, shaking his head.

“Be that as it may, we still cannot give up. We should first send someone to try and persuade him, and if we truly cannot, we should find a way to suppress him forcefully and bring him back to the Bull Demon King,” the white-robed elder stated.

“You make it sound easy, Brother Yuan. Nowadays, the witch and demon tribes of Northern Ju Lu Continent basically all submit to the Demon Clan. The place is well-fortified, sending people there is suicide,” the yellow-robed man retorted with a cold chuckle.

“Has the situation in Northern Ju Lu Continent degenerated to such an extent? In that case, we must send a capable envoy. By the way, what is the Red Boy's current strength?” the white-robed elder inquired.

“Red Boy initially had the strength of the Late True Immortal Stage. After allying with the Demon Clan, his body got invaded by Demonic Qi and his strength rose further, now comparable to the True Immortal Peak. Moreover, this demon is skilled at wielding Samadhi True Fire. Even the Great Sage Equal to Heaven got burnt by him during his journey to the west. Ordinary people who go there are essentially committing suicide. Now that our manpower is dwindling, none of our subordinates can match him, and we are too busy to attend to this matter. Let's discuss this at a later date,” the yellow-robed man advised.

The white-robed elder remained silent for a long time.

“Since none of you has suitable manpower, how about I go?” Shen Luo eyed the three of them and proposed.

“Oh, Brother Shen, are you willing to go?” The white-robed elder's eyes lit up.

“Since the matter of contacting the Bull Demon King is connected to resisting the Demon Clan, and since the three of you can't make yourselves available, I naturally can't shirk my responsibilities. However, I am weak. To be honest, my cultivation level is only at the True Immortal Middle Stage. I fear I'm no match for Red Boy. I hope the three of you can offer some assistance,” Shen Luo confessed and implored.

“Of course. Brother Shen, you are risking your life for the sake of all beings in the Three Realms. We will definitely lend you a hand. I have a treasure that I can lend to you,” the white-robed elder immediately responded, taking out a yellow silk handkerchief after a brief pause, and passing it over with a spell.

“Brother Yuan, you…” Both the yellow-robed man and the Silver-Armored Man were taken aback when they saw the item; evidently recognizing the treasure.

Shen Luo saw the reaction of the others and understood that this yellow silk handkerchief was undoubtedly extraordinary. He reached out and accepted it.

As soon as the handkerchief touched his hand, his expression instantly changed.

The handkerchief appeared delicate and light, but it felt extremely heavy in his hand, as if he was holding a mountain. There were two weird characters written in the center of the handkerchief, the meaning of which was unknown. The yellow light on its surface was circulating endlessly and it looked incredibly mysterious.

He quietly initiated the Ninety-Nine Wealth Technique, trying to manipulate the treasure, but the yellow silk handkerchief didn't budge. It didn't react to the Ninety-Nine Wealth Technique at all.

“Thank you, Brother Yuan. But how do I activate this treasure?” Shen Luo took a light breath and raised the question with a bow to the white-robed elder.
