“It was difficult to infer the secrets of heaven across distant space . Now that I’m in the Wind Encasement Great World, I’ll attempt an inference again . ” Qin Yun cast the Seven Stars Art as he carefully inferred the secrets of heaven .

Distance was a factor in the difficulty of inference .

For instance, there were Skyimmortals and Skydemons who were adept at inference! But typically, they could only do so in the world they existed in, not worlds that were a distance away .

And for someone like Qin Yun who could infer across dominions, he was still unable to get clear signals from the secrets of heaven due to the distance . Inference was much easier when closer .

Moments later .

“Ancestral Fiend Moxiu’s true body is hidden within eighty thousand kilometers . ” Qin Yun frowned . “I’ve narrowed down the range, but there are still billions of lifeforms inside this eighty thousand kilometers . There are nearly ten thousand Skyfiends!”

He looked around him .

His gaze easily gleaned the regions around him for thousands of kilometers . There were cities filled with human fiendish cultivators, Water race and fiendish demons, etc . The factions they formed were rather haphazard . There were countless at the ordinary Fiendcelestial realm, with Skyfiends numbering almost ten thousand . As for Moxiu, his true body was hidden among them under a guise . There was no way to find him .

“Ancestral Fiend Moxiu exists in an illusionary reality . To find his true body, I need to try my best at narrowing the range as much as I can,” pondered Qin Yun . “I’m good at inference, and my realm is higher than Moxiu’s . The best method… is to deepen the karmic ties between us! If the karmic ties are enhanced, his concealment would also turn increasingly difficult . “

For instance, by being tied by blood, even ordinary cultivators who were unable to see karmic lines could sense the kinship between their family . This was because the karmic ties from blood kinship was much greater .

For instance, for irreconcilable grudges, ones that could even span across multiple incarnations, the karma was so immense that even a mortal’s body could vaguely sense it from afar .

Qin Yun and Moxiu’s karmic ties were still too thin!

“Moxiu’s cave abode palace . ” Qin Yun shot a glance through the void and saw an opulent palace nearly five hundred thousand kilometers away . It was Moxiu Palace . Large numbers of Skyfiends patrolled its periphery . “The security is tight as it oversees a huge region . However, the Moxiu inside Moxiu Palace is only an avatar . “

“How do I deepen my karmic ties with him?

“Furthermore, how do I not make him turn wary?” Qin Yun pondered .

After some thought, he made up his mind . “I’ll do that!”

He immediately took a step and vanished .

******

When Qin Yun appeared again, he was already 25,000 kilometers away . He stood in midair as he looked at a luxurious cave abode which was built on a mountain range into the distance .

Dark winds howled across it, making the cave abode appear blurry .

“This cave abode belongs to Ancestral Fiend Moncanton’s beloved disciple, Moncanton . ” Qin Yun looked over . With his skill when it came to space, he could pass through the array formation restrictions of the cave abode and look in . “The fights between Skyfiends are more cruel . Skyfiends from the Mental Demon lineage torture the hearts and minds of others, causing them to have numerous enemies . Most of Ancestral Fiend Moxiu’s disciples have died, leaving only eleven . Moncanton is his most beloved disciple . “

In a dark hall inside the cave abode .

“Kill us!”

“Moncanton, kill us if you want to!”

“You are a Fiend King of an area . Don’t you find it beneath you torturing us?”

The five restrained prisoners were shouting angrily . There was the elderly, youths, and women .

Sitting high on a throne was a handsome and fair-skinned man . His eyes suffused a red glow as he smiled . “I, Moncanton, am well known for being benevolent . Don’t worry . As long as you listen to me obediently, all the thousands of disciples from your Wind Returning Sect who were captured alive would survive . “

“They can all survive?” The five prisoners were taken aback .

“There were a total of twelve Wind Returning Sect Elders,” said Moncanton with a narrowed smile . “You five are the only ones who survived the three rounds of torture . “

The five prisoners could not help but feel their hearts palpitate .

It brought back memories of the terrifying torture that they had been subjected to . It was something that so tormenting that they pleaded for death .

“The five of you have impressed me,” said Moncanton with a smile . “That is why I’m giving all of you an opportunity, an opportunity to live . Furthermore, you would regain your freedom, and even the freedom of thousands of Wind Returning Sect disciples . “

“What do you want us to do?” pressed the imprisoned elder . The other four stared at Moncanton intently, their eyes filled with a sliver of anticipation .

Their sect could continue existing? They could also regain their freedom?

The corners of Moncanton’s lips curled up when he saw this . He thought to himself, “It’s good that they desire to live . Perhaps the Wind Returning Sect can really allow me to nurture a Moncanton fiendish servant . “

“You have to do five things . Once completed, you would regain your freedom, along with the thousands of disciples . ” Moncanton clapped his hand and immediately, the Skyfiends under him carried in basins of meat . There were five basins of meat, each placed in front of the five prisoners .

“The first thing is for you to finish the basin of meat,” said Moncanton with a smile .

The five prisoners were puzzled .

Eat meat?

Wasn’t that too simple?

“I’ll tell you ahead of time . The seven Elders of your Wind Returning Sect’s twelve Elders failed to survive the tortures and died,” said Moncanton . “After they died, I ordered my subordinates to extract their meat and mixed them together to form these five basins of meat . “

“No, no…” The five had changes in expression .

“Junior Sister! Junior Sister!” One of the young male prisoners stared at the basin of meat and nearly went crazy .

“Dad! Mom!” A female prisoner wept as she looked at the basin of meat in front of her .

Instantly, the five found it unacceptable .

“All of you are fiendish cultivators . Why? Can’t you do something as trivial as this? I’m making all of you do five tasks . This is only the first . ” Moncanton looked at them in excitement . On the one hand, he wished to nurture a Mental Demon fiendish servant from such tasks, but even if it failed, tormenting a person’s psyche… was also something a Mental Demon Skyfiend like him enjoyed .

“I don’t have the patience . If you aren’t eating, I still have other punishments waiting for you . It will make you wish you were dead . Also, none of the thousands of disciples you have will escape,” said Moncanton coldly .

“Eat! I’ll eat!” a white-haired prisoner who was advanced in his age shouted with a deep voice .

“Uncle-Master . ” The young male prisoner turned his head over .

“I’ll eat it as well . ” A cold-looking female prisoner had a deranged look in her eyes .

“Very good . Two have agreed to eat . What about the other three?” asked Moncanton .

The others found it unacceptable .

They were indeed fiendish cultivators .

Skyfiends could kill countless but they were obsessed over something . With the obsession, it prevented them from losing their way while cultivating the fiendish ways!

Clearly, three of the five prisoners could not accept it .

“Let the two eat first,” instructed Moncanton .

Two subordinates held a basin of meat and began feeding the two .

When Moncanton saw this, he was filled with anticipation . “This is only the first task . Once you reach the fifth task, you will know what despair is! Hahaha . I’m looking forward to it . “

Just as the white-haired elder and cold-looking female were about to eat with bloodshot eyes—

Suddenly—

Boom!

There was an explosion from outside .

“Moncanton, your end is here!” An angry bellow sounded from outside .

The white-haired elder and cold woman were taken aback . A look of anticipation flashed in their eyes as they turned to look over . The other three prisoners looked over in anticipation as well .

Moncanton sat on his throne unperturbed . He smiled . “Many people wish me dead! Yet, I sit here fine . He— Oh? He cracked the array that quickly?”

With that said, Moncanton stood up abruptly as he stared out the palace solemnly .

He had long controlled the cave abode’s array formation to defend against the enemy .

“Bam! Bam! Bam!”

Accompanied by a series of explosions, a gray-robed silver-haired youth charged in . Surrounding him were three blood-colored crescents that were filled with surging banal auras .

The youth glared at Moncanton with eyes filled with anger and killing intent . “Moncanton, I’ve cultivated arduously for so many years just to kill you! You are doomed today . Prepare to die!”

The person that had come was naturally the disguised Qin Yun!
