After breaking the Sealing on the Heartless Demon Saint's body and making sure there were no further issues, Duan Gujin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been quite worried that the Suspended Holy Mother would learn of his current condition through the Sealing she had placed on the Heartless Demon Saint, but now that this danger was removed, Duan Gujin could relax.
"As long as that Suspended Holy Mother doesn't lose her mind, she should not possibly come back here to see the Heartless Demon Saint!"
Afterward, he instructed the Heartless Demon Saint to stay on the Ancient Sacred Mountain, while he decided to leave the place.
After saying goodbye to the Heartless Demon Saint, he followed the way he came and returned along the same path.
It took him half an hour to finally return to the castle.
Beforehand, Zhan Luan had told him that after entering, whether he could come out alive depended on himself.
Once Duan Gujin entered, Zhan Luan had no way to help him.
And once Zhan Luan went inside, he had to release his demonic power.
In a battle between the Heartless Demon Saint and Zhan Luan, Zhan Luan held the upper hand.
However, because of the Sealing inside the Demon Saint, it could absorb the Netherworld's power from the ground to quickly replenish the consumed demonic power.
In fact, the Heartless Demon Saint had previously fought against Zhan Luan.
It's just that at that time, the body of the Heartless Demon Saint was not yet completely decayed, and it had retained a great deal of its strength from life.
After the confrontation, Zhan Luan deemed the Heartless Demon Saint a bizarre Demon, not recognizing that the figure was indeed the Heartless Demon Saint.
Hence, the legend of a mysterious and powerful existence in the Ancient Sacred Mountain began to spread throughout the Hundred Saints Mountain.
Actually, over the years that followed, the Heartless Demon Saint's body continued to decay, and its strength was being gradually weakened.
Therefore, the current Heartless Demon Saint was not even capable of defeating Duan Gujin.
Upon seeing Duan Gujin again, Zhan Luan quickly inquired what had happened after he entered.
Duan Gujin recounted everything that had transpired during his entry, and upon hearing this, Zhan Luan's expression changed dramatically; he had not expected such an unbelievable situation to exist within the Ten Thousand Ancient Sacred Mountain.
"No wonder I always felt it was very strange, I wanted to know why the Heartless Demon Saint suddenly disappeared without reason, and why the Ten Thousand Ancient Sacred Mountain turned out like that. It turns out that all of this was the doing of the Suspended Holy Mother!"
Zhan Luan's brows furrowed deeply. After a while, he suddenly asked anxiously, "Duan Gujin, do you think you might have offended the Suspended Holy Mother because of this?"
Duan Gujin shook his head, "I was in disguise when I went to see the Heartless Demon Saint, don't worry, I merely said I was a member of the Human Race!"
At this moment, Duan Gujin put on a mask and an outfit that greatly resembled those of the Elephant Clan. Without a careful examination using Divine Sense, one would not notice that he was not actually a Devil Clan member of the Elephant Clan.
"That's good!"
Zhan Luan exhaled in relief, as he did not wish to offend the Suspended Holy Mother.
His own strength on Hundred Saints Mountain was considered the ruler of one side, but the Suspended Holy Mother's level of Cultivation had reached the Shattering Void Realm.
Her strength was far greater than his, an entire Great Realm above, and he was acutely aware that with his current strength, he was no match for the Suspended Holy Mother.
"The Heartless Demon Saint is still on the Ancient Sacred Mountain! We better not disturb him!"
Duan Gujin said, knowing very well that even if he wished to help the Heartless Demon Saint restore its Body, he was absolutely incapable of being any help in his current state.
"On the seventh day when you entered the Ancient Sacred Mountain, a message came from Xuankong Mountain that Xuankong Sacred Mountain had dispatched experts to Hundred Saints Mountain to recruit suitable Devils to enter Xuankong Mountain for Cultivation."
Zhan Luan said.
"Oh! So what will happen next?"
Duan Gujin nodded slightly.
"Once a Devil from here is favored by Xuankong Mountain, they will be brought into Xuankong Mountain. Basically, once they enter Xuankong Mountain, it's highly unlikely that they will return here to the Hundred Saints Mountain!"
Zhan Luan explained.
"Oh, I see!"
Duan Gujin's eyes suddenly lit up, "Does that mean we'll get to see what the Devils from Xuankong Mountain look like?"
"The Devils from Xuankong Mountain don't look much different from the Devils here in appearance, but their strength is far greater than ours!"
Zhan Luan said.
Duan Gujin and Zhan Luan exchanged information for a while before Duan Gujin learned more about Xuankong Mountain.
"Recently, I heard that there have been a lot of the Human Clan appearing near Demon Saint Fu Di, and I think those Human Race people must have been captured by him."
Zhan Luan informed Duan Gujin about what had happened on Hundred Saints Mountain after his departure.
Upon hearing this news, Duan Gujin's brows furrowed slightly.
He knew that Demon Saint Fu Di was different from other Demon Saints; Fu Di frequently sent people into the Human Race World, kidnapping Human Warriors.
Most other Demon Saints on Hundred Saints Mountain very seldom ventured out from the mountain to kidnap people from the outside Human Race World.
Relatively speaking, Fu Di harbored the most hostility towards the Human Clan and also employed extremely brutal methods.
Hearing this news, Duan Gujin's expression instantly darkened.
"Do you know how many people he captured this time?"
He tentatively inquired, hoping Zhan Luan would know the exact number.
However, to his surprise, Zhan Luan actually gave him an approximate figure.
"From what I've heard from other Demon Saints, Fu Di has captured at least over ten thousand members of the Human Clan. I heard he is using those captured Human Clan to build palaces and cities for him!"
Zhan Luan replied.
"Damn it!"
Duan Gujin exhaled sharply, he had previously seen the castle of the Heartless Demon Saint and knew that the architectural style of that castle was definitely not something the Devil Clan could build; only Human Warriors could construct such styled castles.
