Supreme Devouring God-Chapter 1481: One Strike, One Zhang of Light!

At this moment.

Qin Chen and Jing Kong were both taken aback for a moment.

Qin Chen recalled the strange events that had transpired in the underground world, and now he couldn't determine whether the Little Strange in front of him was real or fake.

"Have you been here all along?"

Qin Chen looked at Little Strange skeptically.

"Yeah, I don't know when you left, big brother. When I woke up, you were gone." Little Strange said.

This was truly strange!

Earlier, they had clearly seen Little Strange slipping into the Earth Cave!

Otherwise, Qin Chen and Jing Kong wouldn't have gone into the underground world.

"We should leave first."

Qin Chen shook his head and said.

The two men and the beast returned to the surface.

Breathing in the fresh air of the surface, Qin Chen felt the suffocating feeling on his chest finally dissipate.

"Master?"

Having just reached the surface.

They saw a figure quietly standing there. Who else could it be but Master Zangqing?

"What did you experience down below?"

Master Zangqing's expression was neither happy nor sad, his eyes closed, as he asked.

Jing Kong didn't dare to lie and told Master Zangqing everything that had happened, down to the last detail.

"Master, what's the deal with the underground world? It's too eerie!"

Even now, many doubts remained unexplored.

For instance, why Jing Kong couldn't see the true scenery of the underground world, what the deal was with those skeletons, and why Netherworld Wood was used as coffins to bury those Buddhist Sect cultivators.

Of course.

The biggest mystery was Little Strange. Without Little Strange accidentally entering the Earth Cave, none of this would have happened.

"What did you obtain?"

Master Zangqing did not immediately answer Jing Kong's question but instead asked back.

"I obtained this, Jing Kong said it's called the Golden Buddha Stick."

Qin Chen took out the Golden Buddha Stick from the God Devouring Crystal space.

"Golden Buddha Stick?!"

Master Zangqing's face visibly hardened for a moment. He approached the Golden Buddha Stick, gently caressing it with both hands, his expression rarely showing a hint of reminiscence.

"The stick remains, but the person is gone."

Master Zangqing shook his head. Clearly, the person he referred to as gone was the Golden Buddha Abbot, his master.

"Can you tell me how to use this item, Master?"

Qin Chen seized the opportunity to ask.

"Golden Buddha Stick, one stick yields one measure of light." Master Zangqing replied.

"What do you mean?"

Not understanding, Qin Chen instinctively asked again.

But Master Zangqing didn't elaborate further, just gently shook his head and said, "Since you can obtain this item, you need to comprehend it yourself. In any case, do not use it to commit any wicked deeds."

"Thank you for your guidance, Master!"

Qin Chen immediately stopped asking more questions.

"Back in the day, my master fought fiercely against the remnants of the Hell Demon Clan and died in a barren mountain, perishing together with those remnants. I buried him in this cemetery."

Master Zangqing pointed to the woods where they were standing.

"Cemetery? What cemetery is there here?" Jing Kong wondered.

But Qin Chen picked up a crucial piece of information.

The remnants of the Hell Demon Clan!

Back in the Telekinesis Origin Realm, Qin Chen had encountered people from the Hell Demon Clan, realizing that they mastered various illusions and illusion techniques.

Is it possible that the Little Strange he saw slipping into the Earth Cave, along with the fake Jing Kong, were all illusions?

Thinking of this.

The more Qin Chen thought about it, the more likely it seemed!

"Years ago, this was indeed a cemetery."

"All buried here were cultivators of the Buddhist Sect." Master Zangqing said.

"So, the cemetery has been relocated underground? Why?" Jing Kong realized.

"Because of a lapse."

Master Zangqing shook his head in deep sorrow: "We underestimated the remnants of the Hell Demon Clan. He left devil poison on my master, which eventually spread and affected the entire cemetery!"

"The relocation was out of necessity, if left on the surface, it would have sooner or later brewed disaster!" 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"Then why use Netherworld Wood as the coffin material?"

Qin Chen suddenly asked.

Why would such wood be arbitrarily chosen for coffins?

Only people of the Demon Path would do such a thing, wouldn't they?

"You actually know about Netherworld Wood?"

Master Zangqing showed a hint of surprise on his face.

"I happened to have learned about it." Qin Chen responded.

"In fact, the material we originally used for coffins was Yangquan Wood! But later, due to the influence of demonic qi from the devil poison, the Yangquan Wood gradually transformed into Netherworld Wood!"

"I see now?" Qin Chen nodded.

Jing Kong asked, "Master, why could Qin Chen see things in the underground world that I couldn't?"

"Naturally, it's demonic barriers! Coupled with the inherent eerie nature of the underground, such odd occurrences are normal!"

"Back when the Three Great Demon Clans ruled the entire world, there were even more bizarre things happening!" Master Zangqing said.

"Then why not completely close off the underground cemetery and leave an entrance?" Qin Chen asked.

"Those buried there were all cultivators of the Buddhist Sect after all!"

"How could I bear to let them be sealed underground forever? Especially since among them was my master. Without him, there wouldn't be me."

"I just wanted to leave a thought, but didn't expect to almost cost you two your lives in the process. That is my mistake."

Master Zangqing's expression was somewhat lonely.

"Are you saying, that master knew about my secret place all along?"

Jing Kong heard this and looked embarrassed.

Master Zangqing said, "What do you think?"

Jing Kong's face immediately turned into a mourning look, "Master, let me explain..."

Master Zangqing shook his head: "Originally intended to punish you with a month of meditation, but since you brought it up yourself, let's make it two months."

Jing Kong: "???"

Qin Chen watched from the side, wanting to laugh, and sympathetically patted Jing Kong's shoulder, "Good luck!"

Jing Kong nearly burst into tears. Two months of meditation, that was going to be the end of him!

...

Leaving the Golden Buddha Temple, Qin Chen returned to the Heavenly Blade Saint Sect.

He planned to report to Huangfu Zhao about Ji Zhengyuan's attack on him at the Golden Buddha Temple.

"Senior Brother Qin, you are finally back!"

As soon as Qin Chen returned to Demon Peak, Chu Xun quickly approached.

"What happened?" Qin Chen raised an eyebrow.

"Recently, a major event occurred within the Great Origin Dynasty, causing quite a stir. Emperor Chu's long-lost little princess has been found and is about to hold a marriage proposal event in a week."

"But the matter I want to tell you isn't this." Chu Xun said.

"Then what is it?"

"A person claiming to be Wen Tengqi has come looking for you three times, seemingly having some urgent matter." Chu Xun said.

"Teng Qi?" Qin Chen raised an eyebrow.

For someone to come looking for him three times, it was clearly no trivial matter and must be very urgent.

He nodded, "I will head to East Emperor City now."
