Chapter 276: Chapter 136: Saintess, Divine Illusion
A faint voice entered his mind, seeming to carry a kind of Magic Power that was impossible to resist.
A look of agony crossed Lin Hai’s face. His consciousness struggled, but he quickly lost all power to resist.
With a wooden expression, he spoke: "The Void Sect’s base is at Nanshan Temple in Qiuming County."
"How many of them are there?" the voice, full of Magic Power, asked again.
Lin Hai replied, his expression still wooden, "I don’t know. A lot. Probably a few dozen."
"But the temple is hiding Iron Armor Demons. They’re very strong, comparable to Martial Artists of the True Qi First Realm."
"Iron Armor Demons..." Hearing this unexpected answer, Fang Xing’s gaze sharpened.
’Iron Armor Demons comparable to the True Qi First Realm? What are those?’
’Could they be special monsters, modified like the ones from before?’
Fang Xing couldn’t help but think of the Evil Cult monsters he had encountered at Qingfeng Pass.
’But those monsters only seemed to have the strength of the Neutralizing Force realm.’
’Yet the Iron Armor Demons Lin Hai spoke of were at the True Qi First Realm.’
’The difference in power was enormous!’
’Looks like the Cult Demons’ methods have been upgraded again.’
The thought flashed through Fang Xing’s mind. He looked at Lin Hai, a faint light suffusing his pupils, and continued to question him.
"How many of these Iron Armor Demons are there?"
"I don’t know!"
"Are all the Iron Armor Demons in Nanshan Temple?"
"Yes."
"Is the one in charge, the Void Saintess, at the temple?"
"She is not."
"Not there?" Hearing this final, crucial piece of information, Fang Xing frowned.
"Where is the Void Saintess now?" Fang Xing pressed on.
"The Saintess has gone to Black Wind Stronghold to meet with the Blood Demon Sect and discuss important matters!"
"The Blood Demon Sect?"
Hearing Lin Hai’s answer, Fang Xing was startled.
’The Blood Demon Sect is involved in this, too?’
His heart sank when he heard this.
’Looks like things just got complicated.’
’To think the Blood Demon Sect would get involved in this as well.’
’Then again, it makes sense. The Demon Path Upper Sects and Evil Cults have always colluded with each other...’
’Black Wind Stronghold...’
’It seems this is one of the Blood Demon Sect’s strongholds.’
The thought crossed Fang Xing’s mind, but he wasn’t afraid. Instead, he felt a surge of excitement.
’The more, the better!’
’That way, my rewards will be all the more astonishing!’
However, he remained calm. Acting without a clear understanding of the situation could lead to an unexpected and disastrous failure.
Composing himself, Fang Xing asked again, "Where is Black Wind Stronghold?"
"On Qiuming Mountain, outside the city. It’s about fifty to sixty li from here, in the Southern Border region."
Lin Hai replied, his expression blank.
’Qiuming Mountain, fifty to sixty li... That’s not too far.’
Fang Xing thought to himself before asking again, "What’s the exact situation at Black Wind Stronghold?"
"I don’t know. That stronghold is controlled by the Blood Demon Sect."
"What is the exact location of Nanshan Temple?"
"Thirty li south of the city."
...
After questioning him for a while longer, Fang Xing got the answers he wanted. The faint light in his eyes gradually dissipated, returning them to normal.
Divine Illusion!
This was a minor technique from the Refining Divine Technique, similar to the Soul-Searching Technique.
It can be used on anyone whose Divine Soul Power is weaker than the caster’s.
Of course, it was still different from the Soul-Searching Technique; what you could ask also depended on the target’s willpower.
The most important factor was the user’s own Divine Soul Power.
It wasn’t as convenient as the Soul-Searching Technique, but the risks were far smaller.
After all, performing a Soul Search could also harm the user, potentially causing mental confusion.
Divine Illusion was much simpler. It only consumed Divine Soul Power.
As the faint light dissipated, the blank-faced Lin Hai gradually came back to his senses.
He stared at the young man before him, his face filled with terror and his heart frozen in fear.
His consciousness had just been controlled, and he had no idea what had happened during that time.
Such an unfathomable, supernatural technique struck terror deep into his soul!
"Sir, spare my life! I can tell you everything you want to know."
"Sorry, too late!"
A faint voice reached his ears. In the next instant, a terrifying surge of Power washed over him.
"Ngh..."
A muffled grunt escaped him as the Power shattered his heart. His eyes bulged, and a mixture of blood and viscera spilled from his mouth. He stared at Fang Xing with a look of bitter resentment as the last of his life faded away.
