After a while, everyone stared in shock, their Divine Sense Inspection revealed that the eerie and terrifying energy previously emanating from the seaweeds ahead had vanished.

"How did you achieve that, young man?"

Shang Yumin released her Divine Sense, and she was quickly certain that Duan Gujin had indeed eradicated the terrifying energy emanating from the seaweeds ahead, filling her with astonishment.

Despite her extensive knowledge of scriptures, she had spent a long time pondering without understanding why the seaweeds ahead gave her such a terrifying feeling.

Seeing Shang Yumin's inquiry, Duan Gujin honestly told her everything he knew.

At this moment, he only wished to establish a good relationship with Shang Yumin to prepare for his future return to other continents.

"Perhaps, I might even enter other continents with her when the time comes!"

Hearing Duan Gujin's words, Shang Yumin's brows slightly furrowed, and she asked, "Then, young man, could you let me have a look at that Illusion Vine?"

"Certainly, let me tell you, this Illusion Vine is a plant with strong self-awareness, nearly as intelligent as an ordinary fox. If it senses danger from an enemy, it will immediately hide! And if it senses that the enemy has left, it will reemerge! I have temporarily sealed it, so you can just take a look at it this way. It's extremely cunning and can easily slip away the moment it's not closely watched!"

Duan Gujin did not hesitate and handed over the previously sealed Illusion Vine to Shang Yumin.

Shang Yumin took the Illusion Vine, and with a sweep of her Divine Sense, she realized that the vine in her hand indeed possessed a life consciousness.

"My goodness! I didn't expect there to be such a magical living creature in this world!"

Shang Yumin exclaimed emotionally.

Duan Gujin sneered inwardly, thinking she was pretending right in front of him, wondering how she, who would be a distinguished figure in other continents, could not have been informed by the people of the Guanghan Heavenly Palace about the origin of this Heavenly Palace.

Duan Gujin's eyes flickered, realizing that Shang Yumin was likely pretending to be pitiable, with her likely aim being to obtain the Illusion Vine from Duan Gujin.

Duan Gujin exhaled and said, "Miss Shang, I must tell you, this Illusion Vine is an ominous object. Only those with sufficiently strong Spiritual Power can control it rather than being controlled by it! If someone's Spiritual Power is not strong enough, they will instead be controlled by it. If they really are controlled by it, the consequences are unimaginable; this thing has always been considered a harbinger of misfortune!"

Hearing Duan Gujin's words, Shang Yumin's mouth twitched, and she gasped in shock.

"So that's how it is! Then better you keep it!"

Shang Yumin's beautiful eyes flickered as she pondered whether Duan Gujin was deceiving her.

After a moment, she felt that Duan Gujin probably had no reason to deceive her.

"What will you do with this object then?"

She could not help but ask.

"I will thoroughly refine it so it may possibly become my Dark Weapon!"

Duan Gujin replied.

"Oh!"

A hint of disappointment flashed in Shang Yumin's eyes.

"Miss Shang, if fate allows it, I will gift you the Dark Weapon I forge for self-defense! With this object, you won't have to fear enemies launching Spiritual Attacks at you anymore! This treasure inherently has the ability to block enemy Divine Sense attacks!"

"Then I shall thank this elder brother in advance!"

Shang Yumin said.

Duan Gujin shook his head and responded, "No, Miss Shang, you got one thing wrong! You should call me little brother, although I'm not much older than you!"

Hearing Duan Gujin's words, Shang Yumin's brows tightened, and she hastily asked, "How do you know my age?"

Duan Gujin, upon hearing this, snapped back to reality.

In his previous life, he had specifically investigated the youth, gender, and hobbies of some important figures in the worldly society.

"Haha, I heard from others that you're in your twenties, and I'm just over eighteen this year. So, I thought you must be older than me!"

"Is that so? Others really love to imagine things!"

Shang Yumin's facial expression quickly went through several changes, then she returned to normal.

Duan Gujin caught the changes in her expression, his eyelids flickering quickly a few times.

"Did I say something wrong?"

He carefully recalled his previous conversation with Shang Yumin and didn't think he had misspoken.

Shang Yumin's face changed rapidly again, then she asked Duan Gujin what they should do next.

"Let's all charge forward together! I truly sense the presence of the Jialuo Demon King upfront!"

"Isn't that a bit terrifying, considering how strong the Jialuo Demon King is!"

Shang Yumin quickly asked.

Duan Gujin sighed and said, "Don't you realize if the Jialuo Demon King's strength is truly terrifying to the extreme, then why would it hide here? I think there's only one possibility, that is, it needs to rest properly after each Big Move. Don't you think its body is very abnormal?"

"Right! I've had the same thought! But I can't figure out why it would be like that?"

Duan Gujin chuckled, "While the Jialuo Demon King does possess a part of its True Body, the True Body it now has must have a fatal flaw. If it didn't have this fatal flaw, the Jialuo Demon King would surely launch a fierce attack against all of the Human Clan on Qiankun Continent. I believe if it truly had that strength, it would definitely do so, don't you think I'm right?"

"Yes, you are absolutely right!"

Shang Yumin did not doubt Duan Gujin's analysis, nodding eagerly in agreement with his insights.

"Think about it, the Jialuo Demon King has been sealed for so long, its Body must have developed problems! The very issue with its Body could likely be the weakness we are searching for!"

"Right!"

Shang Yumin, listening to Duan Gujin's analysis, felt his reasoning was very sound.

"Miss Shang, as long as we unite in purpose, I believe we all together have a great chance of defeating the Jialuo Demon King!"

"Yes, you make a lot of sense!"

Shang Yumin thought for a moment, then ordered everyone to move forward into the seaweed ahead.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Everyone immediately proceeded, surrounded by a Water-shielding Cover, and charged into the seaweed.

Shang Yumin's beautiful eyes twinkled, then she asked, "Young man, may I ask which sect are you from?"

"I am Duan Gujin, a True Disciple of the Green Cloud Sect!"

Duan Gujin answered honestly.

"I have heard of the Green Cloud Sect, unexpectedly, though it stays hidden without any show, it has such profound strength."

Shang Yumin said with emotion.

"In this world, there are always more remarkable things beyond what we know, and under this vast starry sky, Qiankun Continent is not the only land, and there are indeed many extraordinary people!"

Duan Gujin spoke evasively.
