Duan Gujin said,
"You are of the Human Clan. If you wish to learn the Netherworld Ultimate Skill, you will need a treasure to assist you. That treasure is the Netherworld Treasure Bead, which is not here, but in another place!"
The crow spoke.
Duan Gujin exhaled a breath; in his previous life, it was by sheer chance that he acquired the Netherworld Treasure Bead and the Netherworld Treasure Book, which led to his rise in posterity.
"Then please give me that Netherworld Treasure Bead first so I can learn the Netherworld Ultimate Skill!"
"Heh, you can't trust me, and I can't trust you. Why would I simply give you the Netherworld Treasure Bead?" The crow spoke.
The sparkle in Duan Gujin's eyes showed he had contemplated for a long time, pondering all possibilities, before he spoke to the crow: "You tell me, what must I do for you to give me the Netherworld Treasure Bead?"
"It's simple. Release me from here!" The crow said.
"Heh, you tell me what you want me to do!" Duan Gujin acted as if he had already agreed.
"Alright! I'll tell you! Come up here, and I'll tell you!"
"Okay!"
Following the crow's words, Duan Gujin approached and stood in front of the crow.
He extended his Divine Sense, locking onto the crow.
Soon, he was certain the crow truly was a zombie.
"Don't try to take over my body. You'll only suffer for it!"
Duan Gujin said indifferently.
"I know; how could I try to possess someone who is on guard?" The crow replied.
After a while, Duan Gujin's mind received a Divine Thought.
Once he was sure there was nothing wrong with that Divine Thought, he read its content.
"So that's how it is!"
It turned out the crow wanted Duan Gujin to enter the interior of the ruins and destroy the Sealing Array inside.
The Divine Thought from the crow included a way to avoid those groaning zombies and the Fake Qilin.
Duan Gujin had previously guessed that the aura of those zombies and the Fake Qilin were the same. The Divine Thought from the crow confirmed his guess was entirely correct.
These details were not what Duan Gujin cared about; what he was concerned about was the map of the inside of the ruins.
Fortunately, the crow had indeed provided a map of the interior of the ruins.
"It's like finding something without even looking, effortlessly!"
Duan Gujin was overjoyed in his heart, certain that he would not release the Jialuo Demon King from his sealing.
With a flicker in his eyes, he asked: "Now I know what to do. You tell me, what treasure of the Netherworld Dark Clan can you teach me? You must give it to me first before we proceed, don't try to deceive me; I know a bit about the treasures of the Netherworld Dark Clan!"
"I can give you a Netherworld Treasure Bead and teach you the Netherworld Treasure Book," the crow said.
"Heh, empty promises are easy to make. I want to know how many Netherworld Treasure Beads you have and what type of Netherworld Treasure Book you are going to teach me. I know the Netherworld Treasure Book is divided into two parts; which part will you teach me, or will you teach me both?"
"You seem to know quite a lot about the Netherworld Dark Clan!" the crow said.
"Of course, I must! You tell me. I don't wish to be taken for a ride! If I find you're fooling me, I'll walk away and never come back!" Duan Gujin said coldly.
"Since you've put it that way, I'll tell you. I only have one Netherworld Treasure Bead. Every member of the Netherworld Dark Clan doesn't need to rely on a Netherworld Treasure Bead to cultivate the Netherworld Treasure Book, but your Human Clan must use a Netherworld Treasure Bead to cultivate the Netherworld Treasure Book. I only have the first half of the Netherworld Treasure Book; don't even think about the second half! If you want to cultivate the second half belonging to the Netherworld Dark Clan, having the Netherworld Treasure Bead isn't enough; you'll also need to possess Netherworld Clan Blood!" The crow said.
"So it's like that!"
Upon hearing the crow's explanation, Duan Gujin overturned some of his previous guesses.
He felt that even if the Jialuo Demon King deceived him, it didn't matter.
In the past, he used the Netherworld Treasure Bead to cultivate the Netherworld Treasure Book, which allowed his Cultivation to increase rapidly in a short time. However, when he reached an Advanced Realm, he found that he could no longer rely on the Netherworld Treasure Bead.
Moreover, by that time, he had already joined a very powerful sect.
Fortunately, with the aid of the Netherworld Treasure Pearl and the Cultivation Method from the Netherworld Treasure Book, he was able to change his Cultivation Technique at that time.
He merely wished to utilize the Netherworld Treasure Book here on the Qiankun Continent to quickly Level up to the Martial Sect Realm.
Duan Gujin thought over all the clues related to the Netherworld Dark Clan again and again, ensuring no detail was overlooked, and then he knew what he had to do next.
"When can I get that Netherworld Treasure Pearl and Netherworld Treasure Book?"
Duan Gujin tentatively asked.
"It depends on you. If you help me escape from here, you'll soon get both the Netherworld Treasure Pearl and the Netherworld Treasure Book!" the crow replied.
"Then tell me the general location of the Netherworld Treasure Pearl and the Netherworld Treasure Book, not the specific location, I don't want to be deceived by you!"
Duan Gujin's expression darkened as he asked.
"It's in the Tianyin Mountain Range! Just help me escape from here, and I'll take you to find the Netherworld Treasure Pearl and The Netherworld Treasure Book!" the crow promised.
"Indeed!"
Duan Gujin exhaled, knowing what he had to do next.
"I still can't completely Seal it! If during this period it seeks cooperation with the people from the Netherworld Sect, then we're in real trouble!"
Duan Gujin's eyes flashed, already aware of his next move.
"To collaborate with the Demon King is surely tantamount to courting disaster!"
His Primordial Power erupted in an instant, flames bursting forth from his palms, his body transformed into a bolt of Lightning, and he swiftly rushed towards the crow.
The crow had no time to react before its body was thoroughly consumed by the burning flames released by Duan Gujin.
Seeing Duan Gujin act decisively and eliminate the crow, Lie Lei felt as if he was in a dream.
"What are you spacing out for? Hurry up, let's go!"
Duan Gujin quickly transmitted his voice to Lie Lei.
Only then did Lie Lei have a sudden realization: "So Duan Gujin was deceiving that demon just now!"
"Excellent!"
Lie Lei felt a surge of elation in his heart, now regarding Duan Gujin as a genius with both intelligence and bravery.
Duan Gujin immediately passed on a message to Lie Lei, telling him that his previous actions were merely to numb the demon.
"Uh-huh! Uh-huh"
Looking at Duan Gujin, Lie Lei's gaze was filled with admiration; if it had been him, he would have charged directly towards the demon and fought to the death with it, rather than trying to extract useful information from the demon's mouth like Duan Gujin did.
Wait until you have the information before you move to eliminate the demon.
An idea sparked in Lie Lei's mind; he thought Duan Gujin must have obtained a lot of valuable information from that demon.
Duan Gujin and he moved stealthily for a while, after which Duan Gujin drew a map of the area and handed it to Lie Lei.
"Memorize this map well; we're going to enter the Sealing Array that sealed that demon! Our task is not to lift the Sealing Array, but to protect it! Our job now is to investigate the actual Situation of that Sealing Array and then return to the Green Cloud Sect to find a way to Seal this place again thoroughly!"
Duan Gujin outlined his plan.
Lie Lei thought about it and felt that Duan Gujin's method was excellent.
"I understand!"
This time, Lie Lei was full of admiration for Duan Gujin.
They avoided many zombies and quickly arrived in front of a tall tower.
Seeing the tower, Duan Gujin was certain that what he was looking at was a Sealing Tower.
He scanned his surroundings and found that the Sealing Tower was surrounded by Sealing Arrays.
These were not ordinary Sealing Arrays, and he deduced from the characters on them that these arrays were not from the text of the Qiankun Continent but rather the script of the Tianyuan Continent.
"Could it be that these Sealing Arrays were constructed by the Powerhouses from the Tianyuan Continent?"
This thought immediately passed through Duan Gujin's mind.
