She became calm after listening to the words of the four Shattering Void Realm elders; she knew those elders had no reason to deceive her.

Just that, she really couldn't remember the appearance of a Demon Emperor in Xuankong Mountain.

"If there really is a Demon Emperor with extremely terrifying power here, that Demon Emperor wouldn't appear before me to tell me what he wants to do. The four elders said they are not a match for that Demon Emperor, so I certainly cannot be a match for him either!"

Thinking of how she was a Great Realm below the Demon Emperor, the Suspended Holy Mother sighed. She knew she was absolutely no match for the Demon Emperor.

She thought about how these days she had been wanted by a Demon Emperor, and she immediately broke out in a cold sweat on her forehead.

After pondering for a while, she ordered all secret agents to return to Xuankong Mountain, canceled the wanted orders on those three members of the Devil Clan, and at the same time opened all Teleportation Arrays leading to the Lower Realm, strictly forbidding members of the Devil Clan from questioning those heading to the Lower Realm.

"I heard that the Demon Domain has encountered numerous issues recently, it's better for me to not get involved in trouble unnecessarily! That Demon Emperor is a Great Realm above me, if it wants to target me, it would be like an elephant who could trample an ant to death effortlessly!"

The Suspended Holy Mother took a deep breath; she knew she couldn't continue to provoke her enemy without understanding its true Combat Power.

When the four elders heard the orders from the Suspended Holy Mother, they all let out a sigh of relief.

For them, this was an enormous piece of good news.

If the Suspended Holy Mother acted recklessly, making them confront that Demon Emperor, they knew they were definitely no match for the enemy, and a head-on collision would only result in their death.

After returning to Xuankong Mountain, Duan Gujin started to gather information from everywhere.

Soon, he found out that the Suspended Holy Mother really lifted the wanted orders on the three of them and had also opened all Teleportation Arrays to the Lower Realm.

For the sake of safety, he observed near one of the Teleportation Arrays leading to Hundred Saints Mountain for a long time. After confirming there were no highly Cultivated members of the Devil Clan guarding it, he then took Miao Yu through the Teleportation Array back to Hundred Saints Mountain.

After returning to Hundred Saints Mountain, they were overjoyed, and they immediately returned to Zhan Luan's residence.

When Zhan Luan knew of Miao Yu and Duan Gujin's return, his face was filled with smiles.

Zhan Luan noticed the aura upon Duan Gujin's body was completely different from before, and his expression changed drastically.

"Duan Gujin, why is your temperament different now?"

Zhan Luan asked, puzzled.

Duan Gujin immediately released the strength of the Martial Saint Realm, instantly shocking Zhan Luan.

"Good heavens!"

Zhan Luan gasped in awe, immediately realizing that Duan Gujin, who was not yet twenty years old, was now a true Demon Saint.

In his eyes, Duan Gujin was undoubtedly a devilishly talented individual!

"It was my good fortune!"

Duan Gujin figured he would tell Miao Yu and her father sooner or later anyway, so he simply recounted everything that happened after he entered Xuankong Mountain to Zhan Luan.

Zhan Luan, after hearing this, broke out into a cold sweat down his back.

If it had been him, knowing he was wanted by the Suspended Holy Mother, he would have certainly panicked, not knowing what to do.

Nevertheless, in the end, Duan Gujin was able to find Zhao Wuji's Gathering Spirit Array left in Xuankong Mountain and with the help of those Arrays, achieve his own breakthrough. Such boldness impressed Zhan Luan profoundly.

"Why didn't that Zhao Wuji destroy the Gathering Spirit Arrays he left there?"

Suddenly, Zhan Luan asked.

"How would I know? What he really thinks in his heart, I just don't know!"

Duan Gujin pondered for a moment about himself; he realized he too hadn't destroyed the Gathering Spirit Arrays after using them.

He then immediately thought that Zhao Wuji not destroying the Gathering Spirit Arrays he arranged there must have been because he felt there was no need to do so, and simply let them remain.

Just like that, Zhao Wuji's left behind Gathering Spirit Arrays became the enabler for him, allowing him to break through from the Eighth Level of Martial Emperor to the Martial Saint Realm.

For achieving what he had today, Duan Gujin knew he had to be grateful to Zhao Wuji.

Duan Gujin immediately asked, "Uncle, has anything happened here at Hundred Saints Mountain during my absence?"

He wanted to gather information from Zhan Luan about Xuankong Mountain and whether there were any Transmission Towers that could lead to the exile islands of Xuankong Mountain, hence, he inquired further about the matters of the Hundred Saints Mountain Devil Clan Forbidden Land.

Zhan Luan originally wanted to say that the most mysterious place in Hundred Saints Mountain was the Ancient Sacred Mountain, but he immediately remembered that Duan Gujin had already entered the Ancient Sacred Mountain before.

So to Duan Gujin, the Ancient Sacred Mountain was not mysterious.

He thought for a moment and then remembered something.

"I just remembered, here at Hundred Saints Mountain, in the territory of Demon Saint Fu Di, there's a place said to be so impenetrable that even Demon Saints can't break through. I don't know what that place looks like, and that Demon Saint Fu Di forbids other Demon Saints from intruding into his Forbidden Land!" Zhan Luan said.

Duan Gujin immediately thought that place could very likely be the secret base Zhao Wuji left behind here, and he felt it was necessary to venture into it to explore.

"Don't be in such a hurry! You've just returned, take a good rest! I'll find you a map of Demon Saint Fu Di's territory right away!" Zhan Luan said.

"Alright!" Duan Gujin responded, thinking it over and realizing he didn't have to rush in finding the Transmission Tower that Duan Gujin left here.

Because he could enter Xuankong Mountain through the Teleportation Array.

Earlier, he had already instructed those four elders to tell the Suspended Holy Mother to open all the Teleportation Arrays.

Besides, even if he wanted to go through Zhao Wuji's Demon Clan Forbidden Land entry at Hundred Saints Mountain, he would have to elevate his Cultivation as much as possible to the Shattering Void Realm.

He was very clear in his mind that the place Zhao Wuji entered must belong to a more Advanced Plane.

In that Advanced Plane, the enemies' strength would be much more formidable.

If he hadn't cultivated to be stronger, he would undoubtedly be bullied or even ravaged by living creatures of that higher-level Plane.

After returning to Hundred Saints Mountain, Duan Gujin spent two days recuperating in the castle.

Then, he immediately hurried alone to the territory of Demon Saint Fu Di.

Zhan Luan gave him a map of Demon Saint Fu Di's territory, which he followed.

A day later, he arrived at the Demon Clan Forbidden Land indicated on the map.

After entering a few hundred meters, he could distinctly feel an exceptionally powerful gravity pressure weighing upon him.

He had previously encountered a similar gravity pressure at Xuankong Mountain. When he felt the strong gravity pressure present once again, he was very pleased.

He knew his guess was correct!

"Indeed! This must be the deployment Zhao Wuji left behind at Hundred Saints Mountain!" He projected his Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul, and the sensation of gravity pressure immediately lessened.

He quickly mobilized his Primordial Power and rushed forward, wanting to find the Transmission Tower left by Zhao Wuji here.

Half a day later, he finally found a Transmission Tower and a Gathering Spirit Array.

Upon inspecting the Gathering Spirit Array, he found that it was already beyond repair.

From the range of spirit gathering of the Gathering Spirit Array, he surmised that Zhao Wuji must have absorbed and refined a great amount of Heaven and Earth Essence here, allowing him to recover his strength.

"Zhao Wuji is indeed formidable. I have no way of setting up such a powerful Gathering Spirit Array here!" Duan Gujin exhaled and knew that setting up a Gathering Spirit Array in a place was no easy feat.

Moreover, Zhao Wuji had established a Demon Clan Forbidden Land within the territory of the Devil Clan to prevent the Demon Clan experts from entering.

Once he had successfully set up the Demon Clan Forbidden Land, even Advanced Demon Clan beings who were at the Shattering Void Realm wouldn't be able to breach his deployment.

In this way, Zhao Wuji's previous deployments of Demon Clan Forbidden Lands at Hundred Saints Mountain and Xuankong Mountain wouldn't be destroyed by the Devil Clan, and at the time when he was most in need, the energy within the Gathering Spirit Array would help him quickly regain his strength.

Duan Gujin analyzed Zhao Wuji's methods and was filled with utmost admiration for him.

"Fortunately, I am not his enemy for the time being, otherwise, I would have no place to be buried by now! I wonder if that Zhao Wuji knows of my existence, after all, I possess the same Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul as he does."
